Subject: Remission Request --George Pope Poultry
CD 96-03 Northampton County
Please accept the following comments regarding the subject request
for remission of civil penalties levied against the George Pope
Broiler Operation:
Mr. Pope states in his first sentence that he does not contest the
accuracy of any charges against his operation. Furthermore please
remember that this facility was prior Designated as a Concentrated
Animal Feeding Operation by the Director on September 18, 1992.
The Designation letter states that the discharge must' be
permanently eliminated. On February 21, 1996, RRO WQ staff observed
runoff from stockpiles of litter discharging into waters of the
State.
The Animal Waste Non -Discharge Rules gave Poultry Operations with
dry litter systems only several requirements regarding the
collection, treatment, storage, and utilization of their waste,
with the main requirement being that waste could not be stockpiled
closer than 100 feet from a blue line stream. In this instance
waste was stockpiled 50 feet of the waters of the State. Also no
records were being kept regarding the ultimate disposal of this
litter by third a party.
The additional information submitted by Mr. Pope only deals with
the every day cost associated with the operation of a Perdue
Broiler Facility and in this writers opinion has absolutely no
bearing on the case whatsoever. Furthermore, I applaud Perdue Farms
rigid pro -environmental stance that they have shown regarding this
facility and another similar facility in Northampton County.
If additional information is needed please contact me at the RRO
(919) 571-4700.

Re: Request for Remission or Mitigation WATER QUALITY SEGTMN
George Pope Broiler Operation Assessment of Civil Penalties for Violation O M0
File No. CD 96-03
OPERATION.q RRANrP"
Dear Mr. Tedder:
In response to the civil penalty assessment I cannot contest the accuracy
of any of the statements contained in the letter. However; I would like to
offer the following statement with the hope that the penalty may be reduced.
From 1979 to 1989 my mother and an aunt raised Perdue chickens with the help
of one farm worker. In 1989 I inherited the poultry farm after the death
of this aunt. -In late 1991 the hired worker had to quit due to health
problems. I work a public job twenty five miles away, know very little
about raising chickens, and my mother could not do it alone. In early 1992
I leased the poultry farm to another Perdue grower. Since that time my
mother has been employed by the lessee.
On February 21,_1996, Buster_Towell from the DWQ's Raleigh Regional Office
observed stockpiles of litter on site. The poultry houses had been cleaned
out just weeks before. Normally, farmers remove the litter from the site
as the houses are being cleaned out. We had such an extremely wet January
and February no one had been able to get into the fields and, at the time,
had no other place to stockpile the litter. Immediately after Mr. Towell
brought the problem to my attention, a berm of straw was placed around the
stockpile. Within two weeks, as the weather permitted, a grading contractor
was hired to remove all stockpiled litter from the site at a cost of $1,465.00.
(See attached invoice). Under normal conditions farmers take the litter at
no cost to either party just for removing it from the property.
When Perdue was notified that my farm would lose its Deemed Permitted Status
and a Waste Management Plan would have to be developed Perdue would not -
place anymore chickens on my farm until I had met the State's requirements.
The State Office recommended that I meet with Mr. Tony Short with the
Northampton County Soil and Water Conservation District Office and have him
-help prepare a plan. - - On March 7, 1996► I forwarded a -Waste -Management -Plan
prepared by Mr. Short. This plan was not acceptable. After much hard work
I submitted a new Waste Management Plan on May 9,1996. It took approximately
three weeks for the State Office to respond giving approval for this plan.

919/395-3900
Winston-Salem This letter is to notify you that the operation
919/896-7007 referenced above is hereby designated a concentrated animal
feeding operation in accordance with Title 15A, North
Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0123, and adopted Federal
Regulations 40 CFR 122.23. The designation of your hog
operation was based on an inspection conducted on July 16,
1992 by Mr. Karl Shaffer and Mr. Danny Smith of the Raleigh
Regional Office. This inspection showed that you had
established a concentrated animal feeding operation
requiring such designation based on the following facts:
1. The operation had a direct discharge from the waste
stockpiles. Stormwater containing these waste
materials has discharged into a tributary of
Corduroy Swamp in the Chowan River Basin.
2. The present waste disposal system for this operation
is inadequate as this facility has no equipment for
the purpose of ultimate waste disposal without
degradation of water quality.
In addition, the continual storage of waste on the
ground surface may have resulted in localized contamination
of groundwater supplies.

,A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permit is required for discharges of waste to the surface waters
of the State. However, if you can permanently eliminate the
discharge by implementing changes within sixty (60) days of your

modifications to lagoons and the implementation of a final waste
disposal plan, a permit application will not be required. If
compliance has been achieved, you must notify us in writing
within sixty (60) days describing, in detail, the changes or
modifications you made. Specifically, a waste handling plan is
needed so that solids being stockpiled do not contribute to
surface water or groundwater contamination.
If the discharge of waste to the surface waters of the State
is not permanently eliminated within sixty (60) days of receipt
of this notice, an NPDES permit application must be submitted
within that time.
Permit applications should be submitted, in duplicate, to
the Director, Division of Environmental Management, P.O. Box

Dear Mr.
Howard:
This letter is in response to your letter of September 8, 1992 concerning
my broil.er operation. The waste stockpiles as observed during an inspection
on July 16, 1992, have been removed from ray farm. The area has been graded
and leveled. I have incurred an expense of over $2,000.00 in equipment and
trucks to have the litter removed.
I believe I am now in compliance with quoted regulations.
Sincerely,
George' Pope
Inspection Form For Animal Operations
Page 2
17. Proximity of facility to neighboring houses, wells etc.:
` less than 100 feet from where litter piles are currently being
stored.
18. Groundwater depth: 3-4 feet to SHWT
19. Proximity of facility to surface waters: aprx. less than 50
feet.
20. Was an Animal Waste Discharge occurring during the inspection:
Yes.
21. Are Pollutants discharged into waters of the State:
Yes.
22. Was the subject discharge caused by a 25yr/24 hr storm event:
NO.
Assessment Factors
1. The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the
State, to public health, or to private property resulting from
the violation. Waste was being discharged into ut to Corduroy
Swamp at time of inspection via runoff from stockpiled litter.
The same violation was also noted back in September, 1992 when
this facility was Designated as a CAFO. There is evidence that
this facility has had continuing runoff from litter storage for
long periods of time.
2. The duration and gravity of the violation: Waste is discharged
via runoff from this facility every time rainfall is great
enough to cause waste to move off site. The litter piles have
always been piled fairly close to receiving waters. Poultry
operations can not legally (NCAC .0217) store their litter
closer than 100 feet from perennial waters.
3. The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on
air quality. Cumulative effects on downstream waters.
4. The cost of rectifying the damage: Unknown, Facility has no land
available for land application and is totally dependant on area
farmers for litter removal.
5. The amount of money saved by noncompliance: See above
6. Whether the violation was committed willfully of intentionally:
The act of litter storage was intentional. This facility is land
locked as far as having adequate acreage to stockpile litter in
an environmentally sound manner.
7. The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to
comply with programs over which the Environmental Management
Commission has regulatory authority: Designated as a CAFO 1992
Assessment Factors
8. The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures:
staff time:
mileage
administrative
total cost
12 Hrs.
221 miles
$ 100.00
$ 4r37�
9. Type and general nature of business: Perdue Broiler Farm
10. What is the violators degree of cooperation (including efforts
to prevent or restore) or recalcitrance:
Mr. Sidney Allen (operator) was hostile at first. Mr. Pope was
somewhat concerned but was mainly concerned with fines. Some

Attention: Kenneth Schuster
Dear Sir:
I am responding to your letter of February 22, 1996. I lease the poultry
farm and was appalled to find that the Lessee had allowed this situation to
occur. However; the.discharge was liminated on February 22 with a berm
installed around the stockpile. On March 1st a third party applicator began
removing the stockpile from the farm.
On March 6 the Lessee and myself met with Tony Short from the Northampton
County Soil and Water Conservation District Office. We are implementing a
waste management plan proposed by Mr. Short. A copy of the plan is attached.
Sincerely,
George N. Pope

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water.
The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged
so that .all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops to be grown.
5everal,factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on'land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of _waste__pro_ _ duced der_ year
54,200 birds X 5.8 tong/1,000 birds/year = 314 tons/year
Ams= Qf Nitrogen pro oer year
54,200 birds X 194 lbs N/1,000 birds/year = 10,569 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

The producer shall be responsible for covering all dry waste either
by roof, tarp, or plastic from the time it leaves the poultry house
until it is land applied.
Where owners of animal operations do not have adequate amounts of
land to apply the waste, the producer must provide a written
agreement whereby another landowner has agreed to land apply or
allow land application on his or her land.
Records will be required by DEM. They should note the time of
cleanout, the approximate amount, and the location of the site where
the litter was applied. If third party applicators use the litter,
records must be maintained of the third party's name, address and
phone number.
Call the Natural Resources Conservation Service or Soil and Water
Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis
report to obtain the amount per acre to apply and the application
rate prior to applying the waste.
Narrative of Operation:
Operator will remove remaining stockpile of litter. In future,
litter will be taken away from site. Only cake -out will be left on
site. This will be covered immediately. old stockpile area will be
disked and reshaped. Waste will be used by third party applicators.
WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN AGREEM�
r
I agree to carry out this waste management plan according to the
terms of the agreement. Failure to comply with the waste management
plan will automatically require any cost share funds to be refunded
to their source. This agreement is valid for 10 years from the date
of inception.
I understand that Mr./Mrs. does not have
ample land to apply the animal waste produced from his/her animal
operation. I have agreed to utilize the waste produced from the
operation and agree to carry out this waste management plan on land
that I own or operate. This agreement is valid for 10 years from

The waste from your animal facility must be land -applied -at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground"ildt-er.
The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of waste _produced per year
54,200 birds X 5.8 tons/1,000 birds/year = 314 tons/year
Amount of Nitrogen produced Per year
54,200 birds X 194 lbs N11,000 birds/year = 10,569 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

Dear Mr, Tedder:
In response to the civil penalty assessment I cannot contest the accuracy
of any of the statements contained in the letter. However; I would like to
.offer the following statement with the hope that the penalty may be reduced.
From 1979 to 1989 my mother and an aunt raised Perdue chickens with the help
of one farm worker. In 1989 1 inherited the poultry farm after the death
of this -aunt. -In late-1991 the hired worker had to quit due to health
problems. I work a public job twenty five miles away, know very little
about raising chickens, and my mother could not do it alone. In early 1992
I leased the poultry farm to another Perdue grower. Since that time my
mother has been employed by the lessee.
On February.21,.1996, Buster-Towell from the DWQ's Raleigh Regional Office
observed stockpiles of litter on site. The poultry houses had been Of
out just weeks before. Normally, farmers remove the litter from the site
as the houses are being cleaned out. We had such an extremely wet January
and February no one had been able to get into the fields and, at the time,.
had no other place to stockpile the litter. Immediately after Mr. Towell
brought the problem to my attention, a berm of straw was placed around the
stockpile. Within two weeks, as the weather permitted, a grading contractor
was hired to remove all stockpiled litter from the site at a cost of $1,465.00.
(See attached invoice). Under normal conditions farmers take the litter at
no cost to either party just for removing it from the property.
When Perdue was notified that my farm would lose its Deemed Permitted Status
and a Waste Management Plan would have to be developed Perdue would not -
place anymore chickens on my farm until I had met the State's requirements.
The State Office recommended that I meet with Mr. Tony Short with the
Northampton County Soil and Water Conservation District Office and have him
--- - -- -hdlp prepare -a plan: -On March 7, 1996, I forwardeda-Waste--Management-Plan
prepared by Mr. Short. This plan was not acceptable. After much hard work
I submitted a new Waste Management Plan on May 9,1996. It took approximately
three weeks for the State Office to respond giving approval for this plan.

MAKING AN OUTLET INTO
WATERS OF THE STATE
NORTH CAROLINA
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
File No. CD
FINDINGS AND DECISION
AND ASSESSMENT OF
CIVIL PENALTIES
Acting pursuant to North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-
215.6A, I, A. Preston Howard. Jr., Director of Environmental
Management (DEM), make the following:
I. FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Mr. George Pope is the owner of a poultry feeding
operation located on SR 1347, in Northampton County,
North Carolina.
B. On July 16, 1992, DEM staff observed a discharge of
wastewater via runoff from stockpiled chicken litter
which was flowing into an unnamed tributary to Corduroy
Swamp classified as C NSW waters in the Chowan
River Basin.
C. In a letter dated September 8, 1992, the Director,
Division Environmental Management (DEM), notified Mr.
George Pope by certified mail that said poultry operation
had been designated a "Concentrated Animal Feeding
Operation" (CAFO) in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H. 0122 and
40 CFR 122.23.
D. The Director's letter stated that as a result of the CAFO
designation, all discharges of animal waste to waters of
the State must be permanently eliminated within 60 days
or an application for a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit must be submitted.
E. The Director's letter also stated that the CAFO
designation could be contested by filing a petition for
an administrative hearing in the Office of Administrative
Hearings (OAH) within 30 days of receipt of the
designation letter.
F. George Pope neither applied for an NPDES permit nor
petitioned for an administrative hearing to contest the
CAFO designation.
G. On February 21, 1996, personnel from DEM's Raleigh
Regional Office inspected the poultry operation and
observed waste from several stockpiles of litter running
off into an unnamed tributary to Corduroy Swamp of the
Chowan River Basin.
H. The waters of Corduroy Swamp are classified as Class
C NSW waters of the State.
I. The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures in
this matter totalled $
II. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
A. George Pope is a " person" within the meaning of G.S.

Assessment Factors
1. The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the
State, to public health, or to private property resulting from
the violation. Waste was being discharged into ut to Corduroy
Swamp at time of inspection via runoff from stockpiled litter.
The same violation was also noted back in September, 1992 when
this facility was Designated as a CAFO. There is evidence that
this facility has had continuing runoff from litter storage for
long periods of time.
2. The duration and gravity of the violation: Waste is discharged
via runoff from this facility every time rainfall is great
enough to cause waste to move off site. The litter piles have
always been piled fairly close to receiving waters. Poultry
Operations can not legally (NCAC .0217) store their litter
closer than 100 feet from perennial waters.
3. The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on

Attention: Kenneth Schuster
Dear Sir:
a A[�CQ�1� f�
I am responding to your letter of February 22, 1996. I lease the poultry
farm and was appalled to find that the Lessee had allowed this situation to
occur. However: the discharge was liminated on February 22 with a berm
installed around the stockpile. On March 1st a third party applicator began
removing the stockpile from the farm.
On March 6 the Lessee and myself met with Tony Short from the Northampton
County Soil and Water Conservation District Office. We are implementing a
waste management plan proposed by Mr. Short. A copy of the plan is attached.
Sincerely,

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water.
The plant' nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops to be grown.
Several,factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than.30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of waste produced uer vear
54,200 birds X 5.8 tons/1,000 birds/year = 314 tons/year
Amount of Nitro en produced per year
54,200 birds X 194 lbs N/1,000 birds/year = 10,569 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

The producer shall be responsible for covering ali dry waste either
by roof, tarp, or plastic from the time it leaves the poultry house
until it is land applied.
Where owners of animal operations do not have adequate amounts of
land to apply the waste, the producer must provide a written
agreement whereby another landowner has agreed to land apply or
allow land application on his or her land.
Records will be required by DEM. They should note -the time of
cleanout, the approximate amount, and the location of the site where
the litter was applied. If third party applicators use the litter,
records must be maintained of the third party's name, address and
phone number.
Call the Natural Resources Conservation Service or Soil and Water
Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis
report to obtain the amount per acre to apply and the application
rate prior to applying the waste.
Narrative of. Operation:
Operator will remove remaining stockpile of litter. In future,
litter will be taken away from site. Only cake --out will be left on
site. This will be covered immediately. Old stockpile area will be
disked and reshaped. Waste will be used by third party applicators.
WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN AGREEMENT
I agree to carry out this waste management plan according to the
terms of the agreement. Failure to comply with the waste management
plan will automatically require any cost share funds to be refunded
to their source. This agreement is valid for 10 years from the date
of inception. ..
I understand that Mr./Mrs. does not have
ample land to apply the animal waste produced from his/her animal
operation. I have agreed to utilize the waste produced from the
operation and agree to carry out this waste management plan on land
that I own or operate. This agreement is valid for 10 years from
the date of inception.

Subject: Remission Request --George Pope Poultry
CD 96-03 Northampton County
Please accept the following comments regarding the subject request
for remission of civil penalties levied against the George Pope
Broiler Operation:
Mr. Pope states in his first sentence that he does not contest the
accuracy of any charges against his operation. Furthermore please
remember that this facility was prior Designated as a Concentrated
Animal Feeding Operation by the Director on September 18, 1992.
The Designation letter states that the discharge must be
permanently eliminated. On February 21, 1996, RRO WQ staff observed
runoff from stockpiles of litter discharging into waters of the
State.
The Animal Waste Non -Discharge Rules gave Poultry Operations with
dry litter systems only several requirements regarding the
collection, treatment, storage, and utilization of their waste,
with the main requirement being that waste could not be stockpiled
closer than 100 feet from a blue line stream. In this instance
waste was stockpiled 50 feet of the waters of the State. Also no
records were being kept regarding the ultimate disposal of this
litter by third a party.
The additional information submitted by Mr. Pope only deals with
the every day cost associated with the operation of a Perdue
Broiler ,Facility and in this writers opinion has absolutely no
bearing on the case whatsoever. Furthermore, I applaud Perdue Farms
rigid pro -environmental stance that they have shown regarding this
facility and another similar facility in Northampton County.

Dear Mr. Pope:
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against Mr. George Pope in the
amount of $3,376.96 including $376.96 in investigative costs.
Attached is a copy of the assessment document explaining this penalty. This action was
taken under the authority vested in me by delegation pursuant to N.C.G.S. 143-215.6A(h). Any
continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new enforcement action, including an additional
penalty.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources (do not include waiver
form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement
action for any continuing or new violation(s).

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a
detailed justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure
for contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the
assessment letter. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an
administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of
your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no
factual or legal issues in dispute. You must execute and return to this office
the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement which you
believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-
2 82. 1 (b) were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage
resulting from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous
violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining
necessary remedial actions.

STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
COUNTY OF NORTHAMPTON
IN THE MATTER OF
GEORGE POPE
FOR A VIOLATION OF
G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1)
MAKING AN OUTLET INTO
WATERS OF THE STATE
NORTH CAROLINA
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION
File No. CD 96-03
FINDINGS AND DECISION
AND ASSESSMENT OF
CIVIL PENALTIES
Acting pursuant to North Carolina General Statute (G.S.) 143-215.6A, I, A. Preston
Howard, Jr., Director of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ), make the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Mr. George Pope is the owner of a poultry feeding operation located on SR 1347, in
Northampton County, North Carolina.
B. On July 16, 1992, DEM staff observed a discharge of wastewater via runoff from
stockpiled chicken litter. This runoff was flowing into an unnamed tributary to
Corduroy Swamp which is classified as "C NSW" waters of the State in the Chowan
River Basin.
C. In a letter dated September 18, 1992, the Director, Division of Environmental
Management (DEM), notified George Pope by certified mail that said poultry
operation had been designated a "Concentrated Animal Feedlot Operation" (CAFO) in
accordance with 15A NCAC 2H. 0122 and 40 CFR 122.23.
D. The Director's letter stated that as a result of the CAFO designation, all discharges of
animal waste to waters of the State must be permanently eliminated within 60 days or
an application for a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit
must be submitted.
E. The Director's letter also stated that the CAFO designation could be contested by fling
a petition for an administrative hearing in the Office of Administrative Hearings
(OAH) within 30 days of receipt of the designation letter.
F. George Pope neither applied for an NPDES permit nor petitioned for an administrative
hearing to contest the CAFO designation.
G. On February 21, 1996, personnel from DWQ's Raleigh Regional Office inspected the
George Pope poultry farm and observed that waste from several stockpiles of litter
was running off into an unnamed tributary to Corduroy Swamp within the Chowan
River Basin.
II
H. The waters of Corduroy Swamp are classified as Class C NSW waters of the State.
I. The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled $376.96.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following:
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
A. George Pope is a "person" within the meaning of G.S.143-215.6A and G.S. 143-
212(4).
B. The unnamed tributary to Corduroy Swamp constitutes waters of the State within the
meaning of G.S. 143-215,1(a)(1) and G.S. 143-212(6).
C. The George Pope poultry operation, a properly designated CAFO, was required to
obtain an NPDES permit prior to discharging animal wastes into waters of the State.
D. George Pope's discharge of animal waste into waters of the State without a permit on
or about Febraar'y 21, 1996 was a violation of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1).
E. A civil penalty of up to $10,000.00 per day per violation may be assessed pursuant to
G.S. 143-215.6A(b).
F. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed against George Pope
pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B-282.1(b)(8).
G. The Director, Division of Water Quality, pursuant to delegation provided for by G.S.
143-215.6A(h), has the authority to assess civil penalties in this matter.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, I make the following:
III. DECISION:
Accordingly, George Pope is hereby assessed a civil penalty of:
$ .30-" • cro for making an outlet into the waters of
the State in violation of G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1) on February 21, 1996.
$-crrv- TOTAL CIVIL PENALTY, which is 30
percent of the maximum penalty authorized by G.S. 143-215.6A.
$ 376.96 Enforcement costs.
$_33'7 ( . Q G TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
As required by G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have
considered the factors listed in G.S.143B-282.I(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to
private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which
the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

The waste
from your animal facility must be land DapplieFd' atG19!4;+L OFFICE
specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface
and/or ground water.
The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should
be used to reduce the
amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the
waste is to be applied. This waste
should be analyzed
before each application cycle and annual soil
tests are encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of
the crops
to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.
Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied
to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements
may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility.
Amount of waste produced per vear
54,200 birds X 5.8 tons/1,000 birds/year = 314 tons/year
Amount of Nitro en produced per ear
54,200 birds X 194 lbs N11,000 birds/year = 10,569 lbs. N/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.

The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to grown and surface application:
