Dear Mr. Bostic:
Re: Wetland fill proposal
Duplin County
DEM #951053
12 February 1996
Thank you for your letter of 2 January 1996. I apologize for the confusion and offer the following
clarification. On 6 November 1995, DEM issued a 401 Certification to you to la(,p ill material in 2.0
acres of wetlands to establish a V.;fsture and spray field on your property. My letter of 21 December 1995
was in error and should not have been sent.
Please be aware however, that spraying wastewater onto jurisdictional wet.!,- cis is not allowable
under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). As long as your 2.0 acre site is
gQl a jurisdictional wetlands waste can be applied. Therefore, .r the fill is appropriately made,
application of waste may be initiated. Further, an approved waste maim Bement plan may be required by
the Wilmington Regional Office of DEM. The Duplin County NRCS staff can probably assist you in
determining how to appropriately prepare the site for spray application. In addition, according to DEM
rules, a 25 foot vegetative buffer must be maintained between any spray field and streams sb own on a
USGS topographic map in order to assure proper treatment of waste and no runoff off-site into waters of
the state. On our site visit of 2 February 1996, we observed off-site runoff from the small intermittent
stream which crosses the site and believe that jurisdictional wetlands are still present on the site. These
problems will need to be addressed by consulting the Wilmington Regional Office of DEM regarding the
necessity of developing a waste management plan.
Again I apologize for the confusion and hope that this letter clarifies the situation. Plc%ase call me alt
919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

MEMO

TO: John o and Jimmy Overton
FROM: Pete Colwell
SUBJECT: Kenneth Bostic Project; DEM # 951053; Duplin County
DATE: 5 February 1996
On Friday February 5, 1996 I met Jim Gregson and Dave Holsinger at Mr. Bostic's
hog operation off NC 111 just north of Beaulaville. Mr. Bostic was not present at the
meeting. Mr. Bostic has four hog houses with two waste lagoons located just behind the
houses. The hog house and lagoon sit at an elevation of about 6 feet above the floodplain
of Limestone Creek to the north. The floodplain of Limestone Creek consists of a mature
coastal plain swamp forest with narrower wetland fingers extending out from the main
swamp up natural drainageways. Vegetation in the swamp forest is dominated by bald
cypress, tupelo gum, and black gum. Higher areas in the floodplain contain a mixture of
swamp chestnut oak, white oak, water oak, sweetgum, loblolly pine, sweetbay, swamp
cyrilla, american holly, and horse sugar.
Mr. Bostic has cleared approximately 10 acres just below his waste lagoons. The
area was cleared by pushing whole trees to the edges, particularly along the north side.
The resulting field was leveled and sowed with grass which at this time is coming up very
sparsely. The middle two acres of the field is slightly lower in elevation and remains
jurisdictional wetland. An intermittent stream enters the wetland area of the field from the
south. A narrow ditch has been cut on the north side of the field at the wetland area and
extends about 100 feet toward the swamp. At the time of my site visit water was flowing
down the intermittent stream into the center of the field. Runoff from the dirt road and
some of the area around the hog houses was also flowing across the field and into the ditch
where it entered the waters of Limestone Creek swamp. During drier seasons this runoff
may not reach the swamp directly.
In an attempt to rate the wetland area that had been cleared I looked at the adjacent
wetlands immediately south and north. I came up with a rating of 56-60 with significant
uses in water storage, pollutant removal, wildlife habitat, and aquatic life value. I believe
that the intermittent stream probably broadened out as reached the flatter floodplain creating
the wetland area. The wetland area now receives runoff from some of the mobile home
park upstream as well as the hog operation. The wetland area may also receive some
floodwater from Limestone Creek at times of very high water.

NC 111 in Duplin County to establish a pasture for grazing and icx
Insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your project must be built as planned in
waters and/or wetlands. Therefore, we are moving taw „„ ut? : = ertifcation as required
by 15A NCAC 28,0109. Until we receive additional infonfiatiozt, we are tang (by copy of this
letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place
Your. project on administrative bold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have PAWNINNIBINveko pi
Specifically can you construct your spray field without s n

Here is the sequence of events;
#We sent the 401 application on Oct. 5, 1995 to the RO for their comment.
# On Oct 17 we sent a two week warning letter to the RO asking that they
get any comments in. nQ ?0/c,8 S-F R- c; G
# The thirty day com ent period ended OCT 5 with no response from the
F
?
?# As is usual, we assume that after asking for comments, and if there is
no response the there is not an issue with the RO.
# SO, on Nov. John signed the 401.
# On Nov. 7, Adkins called and said that they were considering an
enforcement ;action and could we hold the 401.
J M ?Q'-#-Je? asked Beverley to get all the copies of the 401 and hold on to
them.
# She evidently got them all except unknowingly, the one to Bostic.
# John D, assuming that nothing had gone out, followed up with another
letter on % Dec. 21 that said we had insufficient evidence to issue the 401.
Obviously tring to support the RO.
We are in the process of trying to resolve this asap per your request. We
will be getting up with Adkins immediately. I have a call into Carolyn
Mcgaskill to asks her a few questions about a non-discharge permit. As
you are aware John D is with Lauch Faircloth today but we will still be
moving on it. FYI. Ken.

Project # 951053
Dear Mr. Bostic:
The Division of Environmental Management, Water Quality Section has reviewed your plans
for the discharge of fill material into 2.0 acres of waters and/or wetlands located near Beaulaville on
NC 111 in Duplin County to establish a pasture for grazing and irrigation of swine wastewater.
Insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your project must be built as planned.in
waters and/or wetlands. Therefore, we are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required
by 15A NCAC 2B.0109. Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this
letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place
your. project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters
and/or wetlands. Specifically can you construct your spray field without spraying onto wetlands?
Application of waste water to waters of the state is not permittable under state laws. Any
documentation such as maps and narrative that you can supply to address alternative designs for your
project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. Please respond within two weeks of
the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to me and one copy to Mr. Jim Gregson at
the Wilmington Regional Office at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845. I
can be reached at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

Mr. -Tohn Dorney
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh NC 27626-0535
Dear Mr. borney
January 2, 1995
I an writing to you because I have a few concerns regarding
the letter I received on December 21, 1995 considering the
denial of my 401 certification.
Back in 1992 I requested an AD-1026 wetland delineation
through the local Soil and Water/NRCS district. The maps
indicated that I had quite a bit of upland located behind my
swine nursery. since the establishment of my swine
operation, I have had several complaints regarding my
facility. My active waste management plan includes fields
that are at or near homes and the highway. I wanted to
solve the problem; therefore, I decided to clear the area
behind my swine operation, hoping to alleviate the situation
and prevent complaints to your office concerning my
facility. Through the land clearing process, there was a
small wetland area that was accidentally cleared. I acted
according to policy when I fulled out the joint COE/DEM form
so I could use this area. I received a letter on November
6, 1945 giving me permission from your office to fill
2.0 acres of wetlands for the purpose of creating a,paature
and spray field. I communicated with the Soil and
Water/NRCS district office and got the impression that there
would beilff problem from the COE with the filling of this
area. I later received a letter from the COE on 12/14/95
saying they would not take any action as long as my project
did not impact any further wetland areas. Now i have
received this latest letter dated December 21, 1995 that
absolutely shocked and upset me. Mr. Dorney, I feel that 1
have acted according to policy and I have tried to act
environmentally by using this small area (not 2.0 acres
approx. 1.2) for the uptake of nutrients not as a discharge
zone. The area is confined and can not reach any other
water of the state. I have expended dollars acting on
the letters I had received earlier an?o not feel it is
fair for your office to treat me this way. I have no
practical alternative of which I can afford at this point in
time. The work is all but completed and I have an area that
will not disturb my neighbors and generate more complaints
to your office. Personally, I feel it would be a breech of
a state contract ilf this certification is revoked. 1 would
appreciate your office to reconsider this alternative. A
timely response would be appreciated.
Kindly,
Kenneth Bostic

The Division of Environauea d blanagemM Water Quality Soction bas reviewed your plans.
for the discharge of MI material into 2.0 sores of waters and/or wetlands located near BeauUville on
NC I1 I in Daplun County to establish a pLmm for grazing and irrigation of swim wastewater.
Insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your project must be built as planned in
water, and/or wetlands. Therefore. we are moving toward denial of your 401 CertidYcation as required
by 15A NCAC 2B.0109. Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this
lemr) that Me U-S. Army Caxpa of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal. Manageanent place
your. project on administrative hold.
P.03
Please provide its with information supporting your position ftt your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in chess waters
and/or wetlands. Specifically can you construct your spray field without spraying onto wetlands?
Application of waste water to waters of the state is not permittable under state laws. Any
documentation such as Hasps and narrative that you can supply to address alternative designs for your
project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Cadfication. Please respond within two weeks of
the date of this lamer by sendiu s a copy of d* wormation to me and one copy to Mr. ft Gregson at
the Wilmington Regional Office at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wiimiu p)u, N.C. 28405-3845. 1

Mr. John Dorney
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh NC 27626-0535
Dear Mr. Dorney
I am writing to you because I have a few concerns regarding
the letter I received on December 21, 1995 considering the
denial of my 401 certification.
Back in 1992 I requested an AD-1026 wetland delineation
through the local Soil and Water/NRCS district. The maps
indicated that I had quite a bit of upland located behind my
swine nursery. Since the establishment of my swine
operation, I have had several complaints regarding my
facility. My active waste management plan includes fields
that are at or near homes and the highway. I wanted to
solve the problem; therefore, I decided to clear the area
behind my swine operation, hoping to alleviate the situation
and prevent complaints to your office concerning my
facility. Through the land clearing process, there was a
small wetland area that was accidentally cleared. I acted
according to policy when I filled out the joint COE/DEM form
so I could use this area. I received a letter on November
6, 1995 giving me permission from your office to fill
2.0 acres of wetlands for the purpose of creating a pasture
and spray field. I communicated with the Soil and
Water/NRCS district office and got the impression that there
would bese problem from the COE with the filling of this
area. I later received a letter from the COE on 12/14/95
saying they would not take any action as.long as my project
did not impact any further wetland areas. Now I have
received this latest letter dated December 21, 1995 that
absolutely shocked and upset me. Mr. Dorney, I feel that I
have acted according to policy and I have tried to act
environmentally by using this small area (not 2.0 acres
approx. 1.2) for the uptake of nutrients not as a discharge
zone. The area is confined and can not reach any other
water of the state. I have expended,j 000 dollars acting on
the letters I had received earlier and I do not feel it is
fair for your office to treat me this way. I have no
practical alternative of which I can afford at this point in
time. The work is all but completed and I have an area that
will not disturb my neighbors and generate more complaints
to your office. Personally, I feel it would be a breech of
a state contract if this certification is revoked. I would
appreciate your office to reconsider this alternative. A
timely response would be appreciated. RECEIVED
WKin ly,
Kenneth Bostic

FILE COP"
The Division of Environmental Management, Water Quality Section has reviewed your plans
for the discharge of fill material into 2.0 acres of waters and/or wetlands located near Beaulaville on
NC 111 in Duplin County to establish a pasture for grazing and irrigation of swine wastewater.
Insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your project must be built as planned in
waters and/or wetlands. Therefore, we are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required
by 15A NCAC 2B.0109. Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this
letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place
your project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters
and/or wetlands. Specifically can you construct your spray field without spraying onto wetlands?
Application of waste water to waters of the state is not permittable under state laws. Any
documentation such as maps and narrative that you can supply to address alternative designs for your
project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. Please respond within two weeks of
the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to me and one copy to Mr. Jim Gregson at
the Wilmington Regional Office at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845. I
can be reached at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

MEMO
TO: John Domey and Jimmy Overton
FROM: Pete Colwell
SUBJECT: Kenneth Bostic Project; DEM # 951053; Duplin County
DATE: 5 February 1996
On Friday February 5, 1996 I met Jim Gregson and Dave Holsinger at Mr. Bostic's
hog operation off NC 111 just north of Beaulaville. Mr. Bostic was not present at the
meeting. Mr. Bostic has four hog houses with two waste lagoons located just behind the
houses. The hog house and lagoon sit at an elevation of about 6 feet above the floodplain
of Limestone Creek to the north. The floodplain of Limestone Creek consists of a mature
coastal plain swamp forest with narrower wetland fingers extending out from the main
swamp up natural drainageways. Vegetation in the swamp forest is dominated by bald
cypress, tupelo gum, and black gum. Higher areas in the floodplain contain a mixture of
swamp chestnut oak, white oak, water oak, sweetgum, loblolly pine, sweetbay, swamp
cyrilla, american holly; and horse sugar. I
Mr. Bostic has cleared approximately 10 acres just below his waste lagoons. The
area was cleared by pushing whole trees to the edges, particularly along the north side.
The resulting field was leveled and sowed with grass which at this time is coming up very
sparsely. The middle two acres of the field is slightly lower in elevation and remains
jurisdictional wetland. An intermittent stream enters the wetland area of the field from the
south. A narrow ditch has been cut on the north side of the field at the wetland area and
extends about 100 feet toward the swamp. At the time of my site visit water was flowing
down the intermittent stream into the center of the field. Runoff from the dirt road and
some of the area around the hog houses was also flowing across the field and into the ditch
where it entered the waters of Limestone Creek swamp. During drier seasons this runoff
may not reach the swamp directly.
In an attempt to rate the wetland area that had been cleared I looked at the adj acent
wetlands immediately south and north. I came up with a rating of 56-60 with significant
uses in water storage, pollutant removal, wildlife habitat, and aquatic life value. I believe
that the intermittent stream probably broadened out as reached the flatter floodplain creating
the wetland area. The wetland area now receives runoff from some of the mobile home
park upstream as well as the hog operation. The wetland area may also receive some
floodwater from Limestone Creek at times of very high water.
