Dear Mr. Nordin,
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF
ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
Notice of Referral
FAYETTEVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
February 24, 1999
On February 19, an Operation Review was conducted on Farm 2508, facility no.
82-471. This Review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.10D, is one of two
visits scheduled for all registered livestock operations during the 1999 calendar year. The
Division of Water Quality will conduct a second site inspection.
During the Review, it was noted that the bermuda and small grain had been over -
applied greater than 10% of the PAN recommendation for these crops. According to
Section 111.6.F. of the general permit issued by the Division of Water Quality, it states that
overapplying animal waste either in excess of the limits set out in the CAWMP or where
runoffff entters surface waters should be reported to the Division of Water Quality. It was
noted that the bermuda had been over -applied 157 lbs. of nitrogen on field #1, 108 lbs. of
nitrogen on field #3, 261 lbs. of nitrogen on field #4A, and 262 lbs. of nitrogen on field
#4B. The small grain had been over -applied in field #4A 8 lbs. of nitrogen.
Possible seepage was observed on the outer wall of the lagoon. The seepage
was noted on the backside of the lagoon from the hog houses. The Division of Water
Quality will revisit farm site concerning the possible seepage problem.
You are strongly encouraged to contactour certified technical specialist for help.
You may also want to contact your local Soil andWaterConservation District Office since
they may be able to provide you with additional technical and/or financial assistance to
implement corrective best management practices.
Please remember that in order for your facility to be in compliance with
environmental regulations, animal waste cannot be discharged into the waters of the
State, and the animal waste collection, trent, storage and disposal systems must be
properly sized, maintained and operated under the responsible charge of certified
operator.
The Division of Soil and Water Conservation appreciatesyour cooperation with
this Operation Review. Please do not hesitate to call me at 910/486-1541 extension 292
if you have any questions, concerns or need additional information.
