Dear Mr. Galyean:
I have received reports that you are operating above the threshold limit of 100 cows
at your farm. I have enclosed a copy of a letter dated August 29, 1997 from the Division of
Water Quality which indicates that you requested removal from the registration list and
indicated that you would permanently remain under the threshold ntunber. If you are, in fact,
over the threshold you are required to obtain an approved animal waste management plan that
covers the minimum criteria for design, construction, operation, and maintenance. A
completed certification form signed by a designated technical specialist must be submitted to
DWQ before the additional animals are stocked at the feedlot.
Operating above the threshold without a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan is
a violation to Title 15A, NC Administrative Code 2H .0217 and could subject you to
enforcement action with the possible assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day per
violation.
Please call me at (336) 771-4608 ext. 271 to schedule a time and day in which I can
determine the status of your compliance with the Title A North Carolina Administrative Code
2H .0200 regulations. if you are operating above the threshold we can discuss what your
options are. If you are operating below the threshold number I still need to visit your farm
to confer that you are in compliance. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
