TO: CAFO File Washington Regional Office FROM: Robert Tankard Environmental Engineer, WARD SUBJECT: Compliance Inspection BOYD BROTHERS SWINE FARM Washington County On October 15, 1992, Robert Tankard, DEM Staff of the Washington Regional Office, visited the Boyd Brothers Swine Farm. The purpose of this visit was to determine whether or not the aforementioned facility was in compliance with its CAFO Designation effective March 27, 1991. As a result of this inspection it has been found that the Boyd Brothers Swine Farm was in compliance at the time of inspection. Mr. Ricky Boyd is presently working with the SCS Office on a Waste Management Plan. They are working out the details for disposing of the waste water by spray irrigating. Presently, Boyd Brothers are discharging the waste onto a diked field behind the lagoon. Mr. Bill Moore at an earlier visit had said this practice was find. I informed Mr. Boyd that presently this office would like to see the pipe removed. I informed Mr. Boyd that a better practice would be spray irrigating so that an even distribution of water could be applied without worries of a discharge through break in the diked field. rbt/boyd.cafo 10/16/92 CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED �fs7y� �Cc State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources Northeastern Region 1424 Carolina Avenue, Washington, North Carolina 27889 James G. 1`4artin, Governor Lorraine G.
