Subject: Rating of Potential Risk
Inactive'Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds
Wade & Sons Farms
Facility Number 26-9
Cumberland County
Dear Elmer Wade;
During the 1999 session, the North Carolina General Assembly passed a law directing the North
Carolina Department of Environment of Natural Resources (DENR) to develop an inventory and
ranking of all inactive lagoons and storage ponds in the State. In order to meet this directive, a
representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your
property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were
previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at least one year.
The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using
this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as high, medium or low according to its
potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structure(s) was ranked as
follows:
Structure Number Surface Area (Acres) Ranking
1 0.95 Medium
2 0.82 Medium
3 0.75 Medium
This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit. Changes in
these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your
waste structure(s) in the future.
Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been
provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider
additional requirements for future management of these structures which may include requiring
proper closure of inactive lagoons and storage ponds according to current or alternative standards.

Inactive Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Regardless of their ranking, owners of all waste lagoons and storage ponds, have certain
management responsibilities. These include taking appropriate actions to eliminate current
discharges, prevent future discharges and to insure the stability of their structures. Staff of the
Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of all inactive structures that have been
determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data
collected by the Department.
All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed
the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or
structure must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical
specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is an
excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, structure
operation and maintenance, and other related animal waste management standards and/or
requirements.
Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for
any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of
surface water or groundwater quality standards.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process. If you have questions concerning
your inactive structures, please contact the staff of either in the Division of Water Quality or the
Division of Soil and Water Conservation in the Fayetteville Regional Office at [phone].
Sincerely,
Water Quality Regional Supervisor

OV 97-13
Dear Elmer Wade:
On October 31, 1997, the Director of the Division of Water Quality assessed a $500.00 civil
penalty against the owner of the subject facility for failing to designate an operator in charge of the animal
waste management system, After a review of the information submitted in your remission request and given
the current status of this farm it is my decision to retract the civil penalty assessed in case number OV 97-13
and close our file on this matter.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the
responsibility or liability for failure to comply all applicable rules and regulations at the subject farm. If you
decide in the future to increase the number of animals at this farm above the threshold numbers established by
15A NCAC 2H .0217, you must first comply with all requirements including designating an operator in
charge for the facility.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If you have any questions, please call
Shannon Langley at 733-5083, ext. 581.
Sincerely,
A. Preston Howard, Jr., P. .

f!EG.OFF-ICE
This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an active animal
waste management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 211.0217. 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 fisted
below, you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan prior to stocking animals to that level.
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 waste system 30.000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff
at [phone] ext 502.

Case #: OV 97-013
This letter transmits a Notice of Violation and a notice of a civil penalty assessed against
Elmer Wade in the amount of $500.00. This assessment is based upon the following facts:
Elmer Wade operates an animal operation and associated animal waste management
system in Cumberland County.
As of January 1, 1997, in accordance with N.C.G.S. 90 A-47.2 and 15A NCAC 8F .0201
a certified operator in responsible charge is required to operate the subject animal waste
management system.
In accordance with 15A NCAC 8F .0201(a), the owner of each animal operation having
an animal waste management system must submit a letter to the Certification Commission,
Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Technical Assistance and Certification Group, which
designates an Operator in Charge with the appropriate type of certification. This letter
must be signed by the owner and the certified operator and be submitted to the
Certification Commission by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date.
In November, 1996 and April, 1997, DWQ mailed notices to all animal waste management

V)

Elmer Wade failed to designate an appropriately certified wastewater treatment operator
in responsible charge of the subject animal waste management system, in accordance with
15A NCAC 817.0201(a).
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that Elmer Wade violated or
failed to act in accordance with the'requirements of N.C.G.S. 90 A-47.2 and 15A NCAC 8F
.0201. A civil penalty of not more than $1,000 per day may be assessed against a person who is
required but fails to designate an appropriately certified wastewater treatment operator as
required by N.C.G.S. 90 A-47.5 and 15A NCAC 8F .0500.
Based upon the above facts and conclusions of law, I hereby assess Elmer Wade a
$500.00 civil penalty for this violation of N.C.G.S. 90 A-47.2 and 15A NCAC 817.0201 pursuant
to the authority delegated to me by N.C.G.S. 90 A-47.2 and 15A NCAC 8F .0201.
Please find attached another Operator in Charge designation form. Please complete this
form and return it to:
WPCSOCC
Division of Water Quality
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, NC 27626-0535
If the aforementioned operator designation form is not at the above address within 30 days
of your receipt of this notice, you will be subject to further civil penalties of up to $1,000 for each
day that the operator in charge designation is not submitted. You may contact DWQ's Training
and Certification Group at [phone] for information about designating a certified operator.
Within thirty days receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment
to the attention of: .
Mr. Steve W. Tedder
Water Quality Section Chief
'-Division of Water Quality -
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
or
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-282.1(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.
Please submit this information to the attention of:
Mr. Steve W. Tedder
Water Quality Section Chief/DWQ
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535
E.
3. Submit a written request for an administrative hearing:
If you wish to contest any portion of the civil penalty assessment, you must request
an administrative hearing, This request must be in the form of a written petition to
the Office of Administrative Hearings and must conform to Chapter 150B of the
North Carolina General Statutes. You must:
File your original petition with the:
Office of Administrative Hearings
P.O. Drawer 27447

and
Mail or hand -deliver a Copy of the petition to:
Mr. Richard Whisnant
Office of General Counsel
NCDENR
Post Office Box 27687
Raleigh, NC 27611

Failure to exercise one of the options above within thirty days, as evidenced by a date
stamp (not a postmark) indicating when we received your response, will result in this matter being
referred to the Attorney General's Office with a request to initiate a civil action to collect the
penalty. Please be advised that additional assessments may be levied for future violations which
occur after the review period of this assessment.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Shannon Langley at [phone],

Section II # 4.
Wade & Sons is a registered/existing (non -expanding) operation that is
deemed permitted under 15A NCAC 2H .0217. This facility is not required to
have a waste management plan under December 31, 1997. It was determined that
SCS is presently assisting Wade & Sons Farms with a new lagoon design. Mr.
David Faircloth, Technician-SCS has indicated that this farm will meet
certification requirements if the proposed lagoon is built to specifications.
section III # I.
A pre-existing lagoon is located less than 100 feet from a ditch. The
ditch has been defined as a blue line stream, which does not leave the farm
property. This ditch is not connected to surface waters of the State.
