Dear Mr. Butler:
On April 15, 1998, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division
of Water Quality inspected the Butler Farms swine facility. It was observed that
there was an erosion problem in a low area between the two lagoons. There was
also an erosion problem noted in the irrigation field on the hill above the area
where the buildings are located. Runoff leaving this field enters into a fresh water
-, •
pond below the hill. Irrigation records were not being kept by each pull listed for
„ , „ M
a field, but by the entire spray field as one unit. Winter rye needs to be cut and
removed from spray fields as soon as possible. The coastal bermuda is poor to
nonexistent in some areas.
In regard to the deficiencies noted during the inspection, the following actions
are requested:
1. Contact a technical specialist for assistance in correcting the erosion problem in
the low area between the two lagoons.
2. Consult with a technical specialist in regards to establishing some type of
•
drainage or vegetative waterway in order to prevent runoff leaving spray field to
enter into the fresh water pond below the hill.
