Sorry. If the soil types are the same, then you can easily just write in a narrative in the front of the WUP. Don't forget to type/write your initials and date the revision. If the soil types are different it would be best if you inserted the new "crop" into the Year 1 or year 2 chart. This protects Brad since the permit requires that the crops receiving waste match the crop listed in the WUP (even if the PAN is the same). Hope this answers your question?

As the N rates for crabgrass are similar to the sorghum-sudan I told him I saw no need to change anything in the plan. I referenced work done at Virginia Tech by Chris Teut5ch, John Fike, Gordon E.

Sullins Governor Director May 19, 2010 David Walker 630 Eagle Fall Rd Madison, NC 27025 Subject: Notice of Deficiency #NOV-2010-PC-0593 Eagle Falls Hog Farm Permit No. AWS790001 Rockingham County Dear Mr. Walker: Dee Freeman Secretary During the Fall or Winter of 2009-2010, a representative of your animal operation informed the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Winston-Salem Regional Office that there was inadequate freeboard in the waste pond(s) or lagoon(s) serving the facility. The Animal Waste Management Permit (Section III. No. 13) states that the 'Permitfee shall report by telephone to the appropriate Division Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than twenty-four (24) hours following first knowledge of the ... failure to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage pond greater than or equal to that required in ... this General Permit." We appreciate the fact that you reported the problem of high waste level as required by your permit and have worked with our staff to manage the problem once it occurred. While we recognize the extraordinary weather conditions existing at the time, the lack of adequate freeboard reported to our office still represents non-compliance with the Certificate of Coverage issued to your facility. As you are aware, this non-compliance is subject to appropriate enforcement action by DWQ. The factors that lead to non-compliance, efforts to notify DWQ of the problem, efforts made to resolve the problem once identified, and efforts proposed to prevent future problems have all been factors in our decision regarding enforcement. Upon review and consideration of the information submitted and/or discussed with DWQ staff, the Winston-Salem Regional Office has determined that a Notice of Deficiency (NOD) is appropriate and that no further compliance/enforcement actions will be taken by the Division for the high waste levels occurring between October 2009 and March 2010. In the future, please continue to evaluate ways to maintain freeboard levels in the required range. This may include, but is not limited to, water conservation practices, adding additional application sites, updating your cropping systems, adding additional and / or more flexible application equipment, and main- 585 Waughtown Street, Winston-Safern, North Carolina 27107 Phone: 336471-50001 FAX: 336-771-4631 One Intemel: www,nmatemualitv.om North Carolina An Equal Opportunity 1 AfOnnative Action Employor ;Va 1ura //q 0 7 High Freeboard NOD May 19, 2010 Page 2 taining the waste pond or lagoon levels at the lowest allowable and appropriate levels throughout the year.

The average thickness of the sludge layer is determined from information on the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form. In this example, the average sludge layer thickness is 2.5 feet. The dimensions of the lagoon and the side slope are needed for calculations. If the lagoon is a standard geometric shape, the volume of sludge in the lagoon can then be estimated by using standard equations. For rectangular lagoons and constant side slope, calculate length and width at the midpoint of the sludge layer, and multiply by sludge layer thickness to calculate sludge layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes, convert the total surface area to a square shape. Example Your lagoon A. Average Sludge Layer Thickness (T) 2.5 ft. 2.3 B.

Mr. Brad Rakestraw was also present during the inspection. While most farm operations appeared to be in excellent condition and record keeping was improved.over last year, there are some concerns that warrant your attention. Specifically, Ms. Rosebrock noted that four waste application events in October and December of .2000 were outside the 60-day sampling window. As you are aware, waste samples are to be taken within 60 days of all animal waste applications. Failure to have complete records is a violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.10C and your Animal Waste Permit. Additionally, pumpkins were not listed in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) at the time that they received a June 2000 application of waste. This field, (T-3006, Field 3-3) is now listed in the CAWMP as "corn," however this land is currently planted with orchardgrass. Per Mr. Rakestraw, we understand that you are currently working with the Rockingham County SWCD/NRCS to revise your CAWMP. - The Winston-Salem Regional Office appreciates your cooperation in this matter.

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 Rocky Durham on 3/17/99 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 Rocky Durham the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Rocky Durham, at 919 North Main Street, Mooresville, NC 28115, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact Rocky Durham at (704) 663-1699.

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. If 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 a.. 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.
