In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR], SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Siatute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the DWQ staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571. Sincerely, Kerr T.

The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H .0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty. If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office. Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.

This inspection is part of the Division's efforts to determine potential problems associated with liquid waste disposal systems. Mr. Smith's site visit determined that wastewater from your facility was not discharging to the surface waters of the State. In addition, no manmade pipes, ditches, or other prohibited conveyances (for the purpose of willfully discharging wastewater) were observed. As a result, your facility was found to be in compliance during this visit. Effective wastewater treatment and facility stewardship are a responsibility of all animal facilities. The Division of Environmental Management is required to enforce water quality regulations in order to protect the natural resources of the State. Accordingly, illegal discharges of wastewater to surface waters of the State are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day, and may also result in the loss of deemed permitted status, requiring immediate submission of a waste management plan. This office would also like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are required to have an approved animal waste management plan by December 1997. This plan must be Certified by a designated technical specialist or a professional engineer. For a listing of certified technical specialists or assistance with your waste management plan you should contact your local Soil and Water Conservation District.
