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) Rankin 1 0.25 Medium 2 0.65 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. 943 Washington Square Mall, Washington, North Carolina 27889 'telephone (252) 946-6481 Fax (252) 946-9215 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50°% recycled11090 post -consumer paper Rating of Potential Risk 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 Washington Regional Office at (252) 946-6481.

Facility Number 48-16 Hyde County Dear Martelle Marshall: This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an animal waste management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .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 S10,000 per day. Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits listed below, you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold numbers of animals which require certified animal waste management plans are 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 (919) 733-5083 ext 502. -POR cc: 1>it>gtOit`itVtutir Quality Regional Office Hyde Soil and Water Conservation District Facility File Sincerely, A.

The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H .0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty. If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification; please contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office. Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
