This Review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 OD, is one of two'visits scheduled for all registered livestock operations during the 1997 calendar year. The Division of Water Quality will conduct a second site inspection. During the Review, it was determined that waste was 1191 being discharged to the waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systems were properly maintained and operated under the responsible charge of a designated operator. However, the following management deficiency was discovered and noted for corrective action: failure to install start pumping markers within the pond. This management deficiency needs to be addressed and corrected. You are encouraged to contact your certified technical specialist if additional assistance is needed. During ensuing reviews, this same deficiency will be re-examined to determine if corrective actions were implemented. In order for your facility to remain in compliance with environmental regulations, animal waste cannot be discharged into the waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systems must bg properly maintained and operated under the responsible charge of a certified operator. Please remember that you are required to obtain and implement an approved animal waste management plan by the end of this year and have a certified operator. The plan must be certified by either a designated technical specialist or a professional engineer. For additional assistance with the plan or the certification course, please contact your local Soil and Water Conservation District Office or local Cooperative Extension Service Office. 919 North Main Street, FAX 704-663-6040 Mooresville, North Carolina 28115 V#C An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer Voice 704-W-1699 60% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Mr. Emory Windsor May 27, 1997 Page Two The Division of Soil and Water Conservation appreciates your cooperation with this Operation Review.
