Violator Case Number Date Assessed Date Received Craig King — Watha K-6 Farm DV 00-012 June 29, 2000 July 27, 2000 (Mr. King did not send back the certified mail green card when this civil penalty was received but he did file a contested case petition in OAH on July 27, 2000, Mary Dee Carraway handled the case. Mr. King lost. DWO does not have any record of the OAH decision being reviewed by the EMC. Mr. King has not paid and we do not believe he has filed for judicial review. The criminal case associated with this discharge is scheduled for the end of this month in Wilmington. We don't know who the civil penalty case was assigned to when Mary Dee left.) J. J. McCree DD 98.012 November 18, 1998 November 24, 1998 (According to Sharlene Moses' records, Mr. McCree still owes $1,998.97 and his last payment was made on 3/28/00. Your office has been handling this one and should have the relevant paperwork.) Three B Farms, Inc. PC 99-006 June 17, 1999 June 29, 1999 (Steve Lewis talked with Anita about this case. The civil penalty was received in June '99, There was no response within 30 days. Steve called Thad Bullock, one of the corporate officers of Three B Farms, Inc., in Nov. '00. Bullock said that they had requested remission. Since the paperwork might have been lost on our end, we sent a copy of the CPA and an administrative hearing waiver/stipulation of facts form. That was received on 11/28/00 but no remission request/waiver was returned. Another letter was sent in May '01. No green card came back on that letter. Three B Farms, Inc. sold the hog farm in Sept. '99, shortly after the civil penalty was assessed. However, Three B Farms, Inc, is still registered as an active corporation with the NC Sec. of State as of 7/13/01. We're concerned that the Bullock's will dissolve Three B Farms, Inc. if they get a demand for payment letter. Anita thought we could do a combination demand/collection filing letter.)

Stat, 143-215.1,and Permit No.; AWS430032 Dear Mc. Bullock: The Division of Water Quality ("DWQ") of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources ( "DENR") has requested that the Attorney General's Office commence a lawsuit against Three B Farms, Inc. to collect an unpaid civil penalty totaling three thousand thirty dollars and six cents ($3,030.06) for the above referenced violation. The Civil Penalty (CPA) was assessed by DWQ on June 22, 1999. After due notice from the Department, Three B Farms, Inc. alleged to have requested remission within the 30 days of receipt of the civil penalty. DENR did not receive the request.. After a telephone conversation with Mr. Bullock, on November 9, 2000, DENR mailed a second letter to Mr. Bullock enclosing a copy of the original CPA and a second waiver form to be signed and returned to DENR upon receipt. No response was received to the second request. On May 16, 2001 a third request was mailed to Mr. Bullock. To date, no response has been received by DENR. We are hopeful of avoiding litigation over this issue and are thus asking that this matter be resolved as quickly as possible. In order to avoid the filing of a civil action against Three B Farms, Inc., the CPA must be paid. Payment should be made by check or money order payable to "N. C. Department of Natural Resources" or "DENR", and sent to my attention at the letterhead address. If payment is not made within ten (10) days of receipt of this letter, the State will have no option but to pursue all available remedies to recover the full amount of the penalty, any applicable interest and the costs of court.

Two versions are offered as this is the first Permit Conditions case this office has prepared. The attached inspection form will detail the basis for the action as well as a Iist of assessment factors. This office feels that enforcement should proceed due to the following reasons: The owner of this farm have had numerous problems with compliance as noted in the inspection form. It should be noted that the owner has two other farms that have had problems. We feel that records received by this office are questionable as to the authenticity and reliability. Prior actions and statements from the certified operator in charge. The number of NOD's and NOV's issued to this and other two farms. Continuous high freeboard problems at all three sites demonstrating the lack of concern for the terms and conditions of the permit as well as the environment.

Specialists ehoold only certify parts of a plate for which they are technically competent. Animal Waste Management Plan Certification ATTACHMENT A IQ On 1vMay 1, 1996 the Soil and Water Conservation Commission voted to delay the effective date of the new Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS) Technical Standards from June 1, 1996 until September 1, 1996. One of the main reasons for this decision was to allow addition time for the technical specialist to incorporate these new standards into projects that are currently being designed.' Another reason was the'need to allow time for additional technical specialist to receive designation from the Soil and' Water Conservation Commission as Irrigation Specialist. This delay allows a design to be certified under the current NRCS standards until September 1, 1996. Since Part 11. D. of the Animal Waste Management Plan Certification (Form AWC -- April 24, 1996) was based on the requirements of NRCS's new standards, it may not be appropriate for all new or expanded facility; or existing facility without existing waste application equipment. Therefore this Attachment has been developed for those cases when the level of design meets the requirements of the current standards but does not meet the level of detail that will be required by the new standards. While it is not a requirement, it is strongly encouraged that the design follow the new standards and be certified by a technical specialist with a designation as an Irrigation Specialist. In those cases, the certification in Part 11. D. would be appropriate and this attachment would not we used. This Attachment will not be acceptable past the effective date of the new NRCS Technical Standards.

The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, -and method of application for your particular operation. The waste 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 where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. 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 crop 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. wind conditions should also -be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 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. Soil incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. Page 2 he acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical utrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage equirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis eport for your waste management facility.

Condition No. I. 2. of the "Performance Standards" of the issued permit states that "The Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) is hereby incorporated by reference into this general permit.... Any violation of the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) shall be considered a violation of this general permit and subject to enforcement action...." E.

Condition No. V. 3. of the "General Conditions" of the issued permit states that "The maximum waste level in lagoon/storage pond shall not exceed that specified in the CAWMP." G. The CAWMP specifies that the minimum freeboard level in the lagoon shall not be less than 18.6 inches. H.' Staff of the Fayetteville Regional Office inspected BuII Run Farm on January 28, 1999. The freeboard level in the lagoon was determined to be eleven (11) inches. L The Fayetteville Region Office had not been notified by Three B Farms, Inc. that they had failed to maintain storage capacity in the lagoon greater than or equal to the level specified in Animal Waste Permit No. AWS430032. J. The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled $1,030.06. Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following: II. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: A. Three B Farms, Inc. is a "person" within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.6A pursuant to G.S. 143-212(4). B. Animal Waste Permit No. AWS430032 is required by G.S. 143-215.1. C. Three B Farms, Inc. violated Condition No. M. 6.e of the "Monitoring and Reporting Requirements" of Animal Waste Permit No. AWS430032 by failing to "report by telephone to the appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of failure to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater than or equal to that required in Condition V (3) of this General Permit". D. Three B Farms, Inc. violated Condition No. V. 3. of the "General Conditions" of Animal Waste Permit No. AWS430032 by failing to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater than or equal to that required in the CAWMP. E. Three B Farms, Inc. may be assessed civil penalties pursuant to G.S. 143- 215.6A(a)(2) which provides that a civil penalty of not more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per violation may be assessed against a person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1. F. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed Three B Farms, Inc. pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B-282. I (b)(8). G.
