Dear Mr. Harris:
Donald R. van der Vaart
Secretary
Thank you for your recent call regarding the freeboard levels at your facility. On March 2, 2015,
during a telephone conversation with staff of the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR), you
reported a high freeboard level (18 inches) in the primary Iagoon.
Please be advised that failure to maintain waste levels in your lagoon/storage ponds in accordance
with the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan and with Condition V. 2. of NC Swine
Waste System General Permit could result in the issuance of a Notice of Violation.
If you have not already submitted a 30 day Plan of Action, please do so as soon as possible. Take
all necessary additional steps to insure lagoon levels remain in compliance with Section 2 of your
permit.
On March 6, 2015, a lagoon/storage pond level was documented at 18 inches of freeboard at the
primary lagoon. A level of 19 inches is the maximum level allowed by your permit and Certified
Animal Waste Management Plan.

In accordance with your renewal request, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage
(COC) issued to Franklin P Harris, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste management
system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for Sandhill Sow Farm, located in Greene County, with a swine animal capacity of no
greater than the following annual averages:
Wean to Finish: Feeder to Finish: Boar/Stud:
Wean to Feeder: Farrow to Wean: 2169 Gilts:
Farrow to Finish: Farrow to Feeder: Other:
If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may be one boar for each 15 sows. Where
boars are unnecessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be
replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows.
This COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2019, and shall hereby void
Certificate of Coverage Number AWS400068 that was previously issued to this facility. Pursuant to this
COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and
limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system
for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be
established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or
increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to
the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or
number of animals.
PIease read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit carefully. Please Day careful attention to the
record keeping and monitoring conditions in this pmnit. Record keeping forms are unchanged with this
General Permit. Please continue to use the same record keeping forms.

If your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) has been developed based on site -specific information, careful
evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current WUP is inaccurate
you will need to have a new WUP developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation shall be maintained between water supply wells and any
lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the Animal Feeding Operations Program for information on
this process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
In accordance with Condition 11.22 of the General Permit, waste application shall cease within four (4)
hours of the time that the National Weather Service issues a Hurricane Warning, Tropical Storm Warning,
or a Flood Watch associated with a tropical system for the county in which the facility is located. You
may find detailed watch/warning information for your county by calling the Newport/Morehead City, NC
National Weather Service office at [phone], or by visiting their website at:

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be
used to reduce the amount of commensal fe tilbw required for the crops in the fields where
waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly
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 deeds of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, hd bV potentials► cation exchange
capacities, and avaialable water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre -cautions, waste may
be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per we per year. Do not apply waste on
saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen_ Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEAR regulations. Wind
conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems_ To
maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for
pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. injec iM the waste or dishrag will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems. This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this is
the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject the waste
in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating
waste are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
211.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment rim. Actual total acres in the
fields listed may, and most likely will be; more than the saes shown in the tables.
NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility
will produce approximately 1908.72 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the
sludge that will need to be removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when
broadcasting the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well special
equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See the attached map shaving the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water.
AhPPUCATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of
irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture
content, soil structure, soil texture, waW droplat sire, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exccead the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of
L irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months. In no irtstance should the volume of
waste being stoned in your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,0fl0 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every
day the discharge continues.
2. The Feld Office must have dorm in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long berm access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide BRCS with a copy
of a written agreement with a landowner who is wri#hin a amble proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life dancy of the production
facility. It is the nesponsHMIty of the owner of the facility to segue an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste Mall be applied in most but not emceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients_
4. Animal waste may be applied to lair! that has a Resource Management System (RMS) or
an Alterriativve Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per we per year and appropriate fitter sus will be used where runoff learns
the field. These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DElltl. (See FOTG
Stantard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 3G0 Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5.Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
8. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated
on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the
waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the MRCS Technical Reference -
Environment file for guidance.)
*7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed d the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions
conducive to odor or flies and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing asps in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with
a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loafing rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop on bare soil.
11. Any new swine facility suited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
pope 6

component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after CkbA er 1, 1995), shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 fleet to wells.
13. Animal Waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowrnwer.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right - of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged auto surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Anmral waste may be applied to prior converted croplands
provided they have been approved as a lend application site by a "technical specialist'.
Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
*16. Domestic and industdal waste from washdown facilities, showars, torus, sinks, etc_,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
*17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). tf needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and shall be feiroed, as necessary, to protect the vegetation.
Vegetation such as trees f shrubs, arm other woody ems, etc. are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. lagoon arshould be -kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms
and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge. -
*1 S. If animal production at the faa7ty is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for oblaining and implementing a "cosure plan" which wig eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
*19. Waste handing structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, W animal wee is used on crops for direct human
consumption, it should only be applied as a preemergence with no other applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shag be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level men the markers. A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume fpr waste sknge ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 6D days of uUmation and soil shag be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are apples. • Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the sorts shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shag be used when these metals approach excessive levelspH shag be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained- Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shati be maintained for three (3) years_

Facility 40-68
Greene County
Dear Mr. Harris:
The Division's records show that a completed PLAT Form has NOT been submitted for this facility. If
our records are in error please resubmit the completed PLAT Form for this farm.
There is a condition in your Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit addressing the
completion of the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool for your animal feeding operation upon
notification by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA240068 Condition I.6 states:
"If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government
establishes Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a
facility operating under this permit, the Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility
and its CAWMP under the requirements of the Phosphorus loss standards to determine the
facility's ability to comply with the standards. This evaluation must be documented on
forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to the Division. This
evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving
notification from the Division.
The method of evaluation is the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) developed by NC State
University and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. PLAT addresses four potential loss
pathways: leaching, erosion, runoff and direct movement of waste over the surface. Each field must be
individually evaluated and rated as either low, medium, high or very high according to its Phosphorus
loss potential. The ratings for your farm must be reported to DWQ using the attached_ certification form.
The PLAT forms must be kept as records on your farm for future reference.
The Division's records show that you received the notification to conduct PLAT on July 14, 2005. To
avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, The Division of Water Quality requests
that the following items be addressed:

evaluation.
Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in a civil penalty assessment for the facility.
Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking enforcement
actions for any past or future violation. Furthermore, the Division of Water Quality has the authority to
levy a civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per day per violation.
Please provide this office with a written response on or before April 17, 2006.

Dear Franklin Harris:
Based on information submitted with the facility's Animal Facility Annual Certification Form,
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is requesting additional information related to the annual
average of animals for the year 2005.
The Certificate of Coverage (COC) NCA240068 of your NPDES Permit states:
"This approval shall consist of the operation of this system, including, but not limited to,
the management of animal waste from the Sandhill Sow Farm located in Greene County,
with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 1,800 Farrow to
Feeder, and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste
Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation,
there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unnecessary, they may be
replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows."
The Division received your annual certification form on March 07, 2006. On that form, you
indicated that your annual average was 1,993. This exceeds the annual average specified in your
COC of 1,800. To avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, please

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be
used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where
waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly
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 utilisation 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
contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize_ Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and avaialable water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre -cautions, waste may
be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on
saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind
conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To
maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for
pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems. This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this is
the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject the waste
in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating
waste are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Acres show in each of the preceeding tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding
required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter
areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the
fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility
will produce approximately 1908,72 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the
sludge that will need to be removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when
broadcasting the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well special
equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See the attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of
irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture
content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of
irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This plan was original written in July of 2001 to meet the wettable acre requirments_ We are
recertifying the farm from it original capacity of 1800 sow farrow to feed to a 2169 sow farrow
to wean. The only change in the new WUP is the number and type of animals.

PLANS $ SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which readies surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every
day the discharge continues.
2. The Feld Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long tern access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS with a copy
of a written agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS) or
an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used where runoff leaves
the field. These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM. (See FOTG
Stantard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field_
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated
on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the
waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the NRCS Technical Reference -
Environment file for guidance.)
"7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions
conducive to odor or flies and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with
a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop on bare soil.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
Page 6

component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal Waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landownwer.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right - of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted croplands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
*16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
*17: A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation.
Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms
and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge.
*1B. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
*19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption, it should only be applied as a preemergence with no other applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume fpr waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production amd maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years.
Page 7

Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina Department of
Agriculture regulations.

collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES General Permit
NCA200000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Harris Sandhill Sow, located in Greene County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 1800 Farrow to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 1, 2007, and shall hereby void Certificate
of Coverage Number AWS400068 dated May 1, 2003, and shall be subject to the conditions and
limitations as specified therein. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon or any wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C, the Clean Water Act and 40 CFR 122.41 including civil penalties, criminal
penalties, and injunctive relief
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to

RE: Groundwater Section Evaluation
Harris Sandhill Sow Farm
Greene County
Facility Number: 40-68
Dear Mr. Harris:
The Division of Water Quality is charged with protecting North Carolina's water resources
through management of the resource in a manner that is conducive to the state's goal of
protecting human health and the environment. The Division's Groundwater Section has the
responsibility for administering a program that prevents impacts to groundwater resources and is
subsequently tasked with managing impacts if they occur. A large percentage of the state's
population relies upon groundwater as their primary source of drinking water. As such, it is
imperative that the Groundwater Section ensure that the quality of the groundwater resource
meets the standards established by the Environmental Management Commission.
i
There are approximately 3,544 non -discharge permitted land application systems for waste
disposal in the state, which serve municipalities, industries, other sources, and concentrated
animal feeding operations (CAFOs). Some CAFOs are also permitted as NPDES systems.
CAFOs located in North Carolina generate and dispose of large volumes of wastes, which
contain many constituents that have the potential to contaminate groundwater. Due to the
potential for CAFOs to impact groundwater quality, it is necessary for the Groundwater Section
to implement a plan that addresses environmental concerns for CAFOs.
The state and primary stakeholders have agreed upon both an established screening criteria that
will be used to identify which facilities may be evaluated and a protocol that directs how
evaluations are to be conducted. Based on the findings of the evaluation, the Division will
determine whether the Permit or Certificate of Coverage should be amended to address concerns
associated with groundwater. Regional offices will evaluate facilities that meet one or more of
the following criteria:

(a) The facility has been issued an NOD or NOV from the Water Quality Section for over
application of waste, inadequate cover crop, discharge or problems associated with the
construction or operation of the lagoon;
(b) The regional office staff had prior knowledge and concerns about the spray fields and/or
lagoons;
(c) the US Environmental Protection Agency has provided documentation of contamination
related to an investigation of a facility; or
(d) The facility operates adjacent to an offsite water supply well where existing well
sampling data indicates water quality standards are exceeded.
Your facility has been identified as having met one or more of the above screening conditions
and you are being notified in accordance with the approved plan. The Washington Regional
Office Groundwater Section will be conducting further evaluations, which may include the
sampling of on -site water supply wells and/or other wells in the vicinity of your facility, in the
coming weeks. As part of the assessment, the Washington Regional Office Groundwater Section
would like to sample the water supply wells located at your facility for water quality testing
purposes. Samples would be analyzed for ammonia (NH3 as N), total kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN as
N), and nitrate (NO3 as N). If you wish to have the wells at your facility sampled, please contact
me by November 21, 2003 to grant approval.
At the conclusion of the evaluation, a decision will be made as to whether your facility should be
recommended to the Director requesting that your Permit and/or Certificate of Coverage be
amended to include groundwater monitoring. Prior to any decision by the regional office, you
will be notified of the findings of the evaluation and given an opportunity to provide additional
information that should be considered.
If you have any questions concerning this matter or require additional information, please contact
me at 252-946-6481, extension 357.

RE: Groundwater Section Evaluation
Harris Sandhill Sow Farm
Greene County
Facility Number: 40-68
Dear Mr. Harris:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
The Division of Water Quality is charged with protecting North Carolina's water resources
through management of the resource in a manner that is conducive to the state's goal of
protecting human health and the environment. The Division's Groundwater Section has the
responsibility for administering a program that prevents impacts to groundwater resources and is
subsequently tasked with managing impacts if they occur. A large percentage of the state's
population relies upon groundwater as their primary source of drinking water. As such, it is
imperative that the Groundwater Section ensure that the quality of the groundwater resource
meets the standards established by the Environmental Management Commission.
i
There are approximately 3,544 non -discharge permitted land application systems for waste
disposal in the state, which serve municipalities, industries, other sources, and concentrated
animal feeding operations (CAFOs). Some CAFOs are also permitted as NPDES systems.
CAFOs located in North Carolina generate and dispose of large volumes of wastes, which
contain many constituents that have the potential to contaminate groundwater. Due to the
potential for CAFOs to impact groundwater quality, it is necessary for the Groundwater Section
to implement a plan that addresses environmental concerns for CAFOs.
The state and primary stakeholders have agreed upon both an established screening criteria that
will be used to identify which facilities may be evaluated and a protocol that directs how
evaluations are to be conducted. Based on the findings of the evaluation, the Division will .
determine whether the Permit or Certificate of Coverage should be amended to address concerns
associated with groundwater. Regional offices will evaluate facilities that meet one or more of
the following criteria:

Your facility has been identified as having met one or more of the above screening conditions
and you are being notified in accordance with the approved plan. The Washington Regional
Office Groundwater Section will be conducting further evaluations, which may include the
sampling of on -site water supply wells and/or other wells in the vicinity of your facility, in the
coming weeks. As part of the assessment, the Washington Regional Office Groundwater Section
would like to sample the water supply wells located at your facility for water quality testing
purposes. Samples would be analyzed for ammonia (NH3 as N), total kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN as
N), and nitrate (NO, as N). If you wish to have the wells at your facility sampled, please contact
me by November 21, 2003 to grant approval.
At the conclusion of the evaluation, a decision will be made as to whether your facility should be
recommended to the Director requesting that your Permit and/or Certificate of Coverage be
amended to include groundwater monitoring. Prior to any decision by the regional office, you
will be notified of the findings of the evaluation and given an opportunity to provide additional
information that should be considered.
If you have any questions concerning this matter or require additional information, please contact

Dear Pat Harris:
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
-- - --Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste -Operation -General
Permit AWG 100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on February 3, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Pat Harris,
authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application
system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and
terminates your previous COC Number AWS400068 which expired on April 30, 2003.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Harris Sandhill Sow, located in Greene County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 1800 Farrow to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP)- If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC,-you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC_ An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property. NA,�

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service
Tue, Jul 31, 01
Producer: FRANKLIN P. HARRIS
Farm Name: HARRIS FARMS
3269 HWY 91
SNOW HILL,NC 28W
Telephone # : [phone]
Type of Operation : Farrow to Feeder Swine
Number of Animals: IBM sows design capacity
Application Method: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be
used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where
j� waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
�j Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly
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 contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and avaialable water holding capacities. Normally
waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With
special pre -cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under
DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind
odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the
potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or.applied to bare
ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on waste application through
irrigation for this is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose
to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for injecting
waste and irrigating waste are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report
from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
Pane 1 of 51

AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
1800 sows X 7.3 tons waste/sows/year = 13140 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
1800 sows X 6.5 Ibs PAN/sows/year = 11700 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have
appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown,

Acres show in each of the preceeding tables are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, add areas unable to be irrigated, and
perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the
tables.
NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurtudent rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility
will produce approximately 1980 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the
sludge that will need to be removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when
broadcasting the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well special
equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See the attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of
irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture
content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of
irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months. In no instance should the volume
of waste being stored in your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every
day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long term access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS with a
copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for
other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS) or
an Altemative Conservation System (ACS). if an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no
greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be'used where runoff
leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM. (See
FOTG Stantard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a
season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the NRCS
Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)
*7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions
conducive to odor or flies and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with
a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop on bare soil.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
fha ni ifor newimnfcr of fhc land arcs nnfn %Afhirrh tiafacfc is nrnnliarl frnm a lannnn fhnf is a
Pane 9 of 9

component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells
13. Animal Waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landownwer.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right - of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted croplands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
-Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application causes no runoff or
drift from the site.
*16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
*17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation.
Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon
berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or
discharge. -
*18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
*19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption, it should only be applied as a preemergence with no other applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume fpr waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least
annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -
determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative
crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted
Panty7nf9

for optimum crop production amd maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina Department of
Agriculture regulations.

Facility Number 40-68
Greene County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Martin McLawhorn on 3/29/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Martin McLawhorn the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Martin McLawhorn, at 943 Washington
Square Mall, Washington, NC 27889, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter.. If you
have any questions please contact Martin McLawhorn at [phone]. If within 90 days
you are unable to provide Martin McLawhorn with the information you are
automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by
Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter.

Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. 1f the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 40-68
Greene County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required io
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

RE: Mandatory Public Notification of Untreated waste and Wastewater Discharges
House Bill 1160
Effective October 1, 1999
Facility 40-68
Greene County
Dear Mr. Harris:
During the simmer of 1999, Legislation passed a new regulation as part of the Clean Water Act
which requires those who discharge 1,000 gallons or more of untreated waste or wastewater that reaches
surface waters must notify the public. This regulation applies to permitted municipal and domestic waste
and wastewater systems, industrial and other non -municipal waste and wastewater treatment facilities and
animal waste management systems.
If there is a discharge of 1,000 gallons or more of untreated waste or wastewater that reaches
surface waters of the State, facility owners and operators are required to issue a press release within 48
hours of first knowledge of the spill. The law requires that the press release must be issued to "all
electronic and print news media outlets that provide general coverage in the county where the discharge
occurred". A copy of the press release and a list of the news media to which it was distributed must be
maintained for one year by the owner/operator. This press release is required in addition to the permit
requirements of contacting the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ).
A discharge of 15,000 gallons or more requires the owner or operator to publish a notice of
discharge in addition to the press release. The public notice must be placed in a newspaper having
general circulation in the county where the incident occurred and each county immediately downstream
from the point of discharge. A copy of all public notices and proof of publication must be sent to DWQ
within 30 days of publication.

are forwarding this Certificate of Coverage (COC) to Harris Sandhill Sow Farm, authorizing the
operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in
accordance with General Permit AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this
system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Harris Sandhill Sow,
located in Greene County, with an animal capacity of no greater than 1800 Farrow to Feeder and the
application to land as specified in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003, and shall hereby void
COC No AWS400068 dated September 5, 1997. The COC shall hereby incorporate by reference any
specific conditions of the previous COC issued to this facility. The purpose of this COC is to allow

you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations
as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any increase in waste production greater than
the certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the
General Permit or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance
with NCGS 143-2I5.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive

Environmental Technician, WARO
SUBJECT: Compliance Inspection
Harris Swine Farms, Inc. Operation
Greene County
On December 10, 1992, Scott Jones and Robert Tankard, DEM Staff of
the Washington Regional Office, visited the Harris Swine Farm
Operation. The purpose of this visit was to determine whether or
not the aforementioned facility was in compliance with its CAFO
Designation effective July 25, 1991.
As a result of this inspection it has been found that the Harris
Swine operation was in compliance at the time of inspection.
The Harris Swine Farms Facilities consists of two operations on
either side of NCSR 1245. At the time of inspection there were no
discharges noted at either facility. The operation on the north
side of NCSR 1245 has added an additional lagoon and reinforced and
seeded the existing lagoon walls. Up to this point they have not
had to pump this new lagoon. The -operation on the south side of
NCSR 1245 has reinforced its lagoon walls and installed a surface
water diversion and collection system. This collected water is
used to flush houses and water animals when needed.
