Subject: Removal of Registration
Facility Number 66-75
Northampton County
This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an animal waste
management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .0217. The information you provided us indicated that your
operation's animal population does not exceed the number set forth by 15A NCAC 2H .0217, and therefore does not
require registration for a certified animal waste management plan.
Under 15A NCAC 2H .0217, your facility is deemed permitted if waste is properly managed and does not
reach the surface waters of the state. Any system determined to have an adverse impact on water quality may be
required to obtain a waste management plan or an individual permit. You are reminded that a discharge of wastes to
the surface waters of the state will subject you to a civil penalty up to $10,000 per day.
Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits
listed below, you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan and contact the Division of
Water Quality prior to stocking animals. Threshold numbers of animals that require certified animal waste
management plans are as follows:
Swine
250
Confined Cattle
100
Horses
75
Sheep
1,000
Poultry with a liquid wastes stem
30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our
staff at {919} 733-5083 ext 571.

SUBJECT: Notice of Violation
Designation of Operator in Charge
WT Bridgers & Son
Facility Number 66--75
Northampton County
Dear Mr. Bridgers:
You were notified by letter dated December 5, 1996, that you were required to designate a certified animal waste
management system operator as Operator in Charge for the subject facility by January 1, 1997. Enclosed with that
letter was an Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically for your facility, Instructions for Completing
Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator, and an Application for
Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management System Operator. Our records indicate that these
completed Forms have not yet been returned to our office.
As was explained in the previous letter, a training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste
management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry (with a liquid waste system). Therefore owners of
these systems were allowed to request that they be issued temporary certifications until December. 31, 1997. All that
was required to receive this temporary certification was the completion of the Application Form.
For you convenience, we are sending you additional copies of the Operator in Charge Designation Form specifically
for your facility, Instructions for Completing Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste
Management System Operator, and an Application for Temporary Certification as an Animal Waste Management
System Operator. Please return this completed Form to this office as soon as possible but in no case later than April
25, 1997. This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in locating a certified
operator.
Please note that failure to designate an Operator in Charge of your animal waste management system, is a violation
of N.C.G.S. 90A-47.2 and you will be assessed a civil penalty unless an appropriately certified operator is designated.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving you of the responsibility and liability for
any past or future violations for your failure to designate an appropriate Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please contact our Technical Assistance and Certification Group at
[phone].
Sincerely,

Certified Animal Waste Management Plan

Facility Number: 66-75
Northampton County
In accordance with State Regulations (15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(E)) adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission on February 1, 1993, the owner of the subject facility was required to submit a
Certification Form for the facility's animal waste management system by December 31, 1997.
This letter is to advise you that this office has no record of having received the required Certification for
the subject facility, Please provide this office with an explanation as to why this Certification was not
submitted as required. This explanation must be received within 30 days following the receipt of this letter.
Any existing facility owner which did not submit the required certification by the deadline is no longer
deemed permitted to operate their animal waste management system. Therefore, if the certification was not
submitted as required and the facility is still in operation, this facility is being operated without a valid
permit. N.C.G.S. 143-215.6(b) allows the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources to take appropriate enforcement actions for this violation for as long as the violation continues.
As per Senate Bill 1217, which was ratified on June 21, 1996, the Environmental Management
Commission (EMC) may enter into a special agreement with facilities that did not meet the December 3I,
1997 deadline. These special agreements can only be issued to facility owners which signed up for assistance
with their local Soil and Water Conservation District Office by September 1, 1996 and which can
demonstrate that they made a good faith effort to meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. The special
agreement, if issued, would contain a specific schedule for the facility to follow to develop and/or implement
an approved animal waste management plan. Attached is an application for a special agreement between the
EMC and the subject facility. If you can demonstrate that this facility can meet the conditions for a special
agreement, you may send this request along with your explanation as to why the plan has not been developed
and implemented. This request would also be due within 30 days from receipt of this letter.

Also attached is a form (Form RR 2198) that must be filled out if the facility is no longer in operation or is
below the threshold established in15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(A). Facilities which maintain the number of animals
below certain thresholds are not required to be certified. These thresholds are:
100 head of cattle
75 horses
250 swine
1000 sheep
30,000 birds with a liquid system
Please submit this form if the subject facility is not operating or is below the threshold limit established in 15A
NCAC 2H.0217(a)(1)(A).
Please submit all responses to this matter to the following address:
Attn: Shannon Langley
Division of Water Quality
P.O. Box 29535
Raleieh NC 27626-0535
Once your response is received, it will be evaluated in detail along with any supporting information that
you may wish to submit. Following this review, you will be advised of the results of the review and of any
additional actions that must be taken to bring your facility into compliance.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be. taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with the requirement to develop and implement a certified animal waste
management pian by December 31, 1997. Please also be advised that the submittal of a request for a special
agreement does not assure that one will be issued. Each facility will be reviewed on a case by case basis and
appropriate actions will be taken to bring each facility into compliance.
Thank you for your immediate attention to this issue. If you have any questions concerning this matter,
please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Shannon Langley of our staff at [phone] ext. 58 L
