Dear J.L. Sharpe:
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 prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold
numbers of animals which 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 Sue Homewood of our staff at

Dear Mr. Sharpe:
On September 26, 1997, Mr. Buster Towell from the Raleigh Regional
Office conducted an annual inspection to determine compliance with
the State's animal waste nondischarge regulations.
The inspection determined that the facility was not operational and
that no discharges of wastewater were observed to any waters of the
State.
At your request, the Raleigh Regional Office will recommend that
your animal operation be removed from the registration data base.
Please note that if some time in the future you wish to reopen this
facility you will be required to have a General Permit prior to
restocking the facility and meet any current buffer set back
requirements in place at the time of repopulation.
The Raleigh Regional Office appreciates your cooperation and
compliance. If you have any questions concerning this inspection
please call Mr. Buster Towell at [phone].

Dear Mr. Sharpe:
On July 20, 1995, Mr. Steve Mitchell, from the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a compliance inspection
of the subject animal facility. This inspection is a part of the Division's efforts to determine potential
problems associated with liquid waste disposal systems.
Mr. Mitchell's site visit determined that wastewater from your facility was not discharging to the surface
waters of the state. No manmade pipes, ditches, or other prohibited conveyances (for the purpose of
willfully discharging wastewater) were observed.
However, as a result of the inspection, the following management deficiencies were observed:
—Your lagoon has little freeboard, less than 8 inches in some areas. This problem should receive
prompt attention in order to prevent a future discharge or a lagoon breech.
—The design of this facility allows for little if any rain diversion. This must be repaired to prevent
significant amounts of stormwater from entering into the waste lagoon.
—It was noted that a significant number of large trees are growing along the toe of the lagoon
slope. Trees can compromise lagoons and cause them to seep wastewater. These trees should
be removed and the lagoon berm stabilized.
To continue to effectively manage any waste generated from this facility in the future, and to prevent a
discharge of wastewater from this facility, these deficiencies must be immediately addressed. The Raleigh
Regional Office requires a written response to the aforementioned issues within 30 days of receipt of this
letter. You should specifically address how you plan to correct these problems and submit a schedule
(with dates) stating when these management deficiencies will be corrected.
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.
