of the Clean Water Act, you have been found to be in violation of your NPDES Permit.
Violation 1: Failure to maintain adequate freeboard -level records. (Permit No. NCO086614 Section 111.8.)
Between August 13, 2004 and August 16, 2004, the facility received 5.39 inches of precipitation as recorded by farm staff.
During that time, there was neither a recorded change in the Melville 2 lagoon level nor a corresponding irrigation event or

The Division of Water Quality requests that, in addition to the specified corrective action above, please submit the
following items on or before January 31, 2005:
1. Please have the OIC for this farm include an explanation as to how this violation occurred.
2. Please have the OIC include a list of the steps that will be taken to prevent this violation from occurring in the
future.
Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking enforcement actions for this
violation or any past or future violation, Furthermore, the Division of Water Quality has the authority to levy a civil penalty
of not more than $25,000.00 per day per violation.

Subject: Notice of Violation Dated, January 10, 2005
Dear Mr. Barnhardt-.
In response to the Notice of Violation issued by your office, dated January 10, 2005, 1 reviewed the permit and the section
referenced. In your letter, you referenced Permit No. NC0086614, Section 111.8. The violation as stated was for failure to maintain
adequate freeboard -level records. I was unable to find the reference in the permit under the section stated. I believe that this section
of the permit references discharge from, the waste collection, treatment, storage and application systems to waters of the US.
In an effort to respond appropriately and responsibly to the alleged violation, I would like clarification as to which specific
section of the permit you deem to have been violated.
If you have any further questions please contact me at 910-285-1357 or by mobile at 910-27 t-0361.

Violation 1: Failure to maintain adequate freeboard -level records, (Permit No. NCO086614 Section 111.8.)
Explanation: Upon investigating the violation it was discovered that the person assigned to read the daily freeboard was
not reading the lagoon level gauge as directed,
Action: The person was let go by the company, I think that we have shown our dedication to performing our
responsibilities as set forth in the permit. We have demonstrated by our actions that we will not tolerate
any deviation from the requirement in our pen -nit by any of our employees.
We will also be reviewing the records on a more frequent basis in an attempt to detect any problems and
address them as they occur.
If you have any further questions please contact me at 910-285-1357 or by mobile at 910-271-0361.

This letter is in response to your request for information dated March 9,2004.
I am the point of contact for environmental issues at DM Farms. I was notified of a
problem at Mag 4 and responded immediately. Once I arrived I was busy with an
assessment of the situation. I was coordinating the effort to prevent any environmental
damage. I was also taking water samples as required by our permit. Once I felt that there
was no rhanrA of nnv fiirflipr rEwlinrap and the t-L-nn aim hnA komm T "ntJfuw4 xrniir n0lo'.
I believe that the notification was well within the 24-hour notification requirement as
specified in our permit.
The farm staff is aware of the required efforts that must be implemented to prevent and
contain a spill at the farm. They work hard to prevent spills and due a good job in
containment.

FROM: M. J. Noland, Regional Supervisor
Fayetteville Regional Office
SUBJECT: Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation
McLamb Hog Farm
Clinton, N. C.
Sampson County
On Friday, February 23, 1984, Mr. Grady Dobson, Environmental Engineer,
Fayetteville Regional Office, was conducting a complaint investigation from
Mr. Gerald Lee, Environmental Technician, Fayetteville Regional Office, Land
Quality Section, regarding the siphoning of wastewater from a second stage waste
stabilization lagoon into an unnamed tributary which eventually flows into
Rocky Marsh Creek, Class "C Swamp" waters in the Cape Fear River Basin.
Mr. Dobson's investigation revealed that Mr. McLamb's facility did have a direct
discharge to the State's surface waters. The farm is farrow to finishing
operation with swine that range in size from 55 lbs to 240 lbs. There are six
L- Irnt 2- -2-- ^ r^- L-.- rr
houses 30' X IOU in !)1,4e CUrILdining dPPrUY,1f11d-Le1y 2,500 swine yredLer than 53
lbs in weight. A seventh house 25' x 100' is divided into four separate
sections housing approximately 1,800 swine weighing less than 55 lbs. All
houses discharge into a two stage lagoon system (see attached sketch) in which
the gpcnnd Rtacp haq a dirprt diRrharap to the Statp'q -,ijrfarp watprr—
During the course of the inspection, the following determinations were
made in accordance with NC Administrative Code 2H.0123(a)(2) for a concentrated
animal feeding operation as described in 40 CFR 124.82(a)(2)(ii)(122.54 Amended),
which covers facilities with more than i,000animal units (2,500 swine weighing
over 55 lbs). McLamb's Hog Farm's operation houses currently 2,500 swine
(1,000 animal units) weighing over 55 lbs and an additional 1,800 swine (pigs)
weighing less than 55 lbs.
A. It was determined that a pollutant discharge does occur to
the surface waters of the State through a wastewater flushing
system into a holding lagoon and an overflow from the lagoon
into a drainage ditch which is directed to the surface waters.
B. The discharge does occur to the State'e surface waters (Rocky
Marsh Creek, a class "C"Swamp stream) via a siphon pipe which
originates within the property of McLamb,Hog Farm. The
discharge does occur as the result of improper waste management
practices and is not the result of a 25 year, 24 hour rainfall
event.

of an improper dike elevation on the back side of this lagoon.
In accordance with field evaluation and the "Concentrated Animal Feeding
Operation Regulation," the owner should be given notice in accordance with
subchapter 2H, Sect I ion .0123(b).
It is recommended that the attached letter be sent to McLamb Hog Farm
notifying this swine operation that a permit application needs to be submitted
or the discharge eliminated within 60 days in accordance with NC Administrative
Code and.Code of Federal Regulations.

On January 28, 2004, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality responded to notification from the Mag 4 Sow Farm of a swine wastewater spill. Staff
arrived at the farm at approximately 2:45 pm that afternoon. Information from farm officials
stated that a blocked discharge line had caused an unpermitted release from the waste treatment
system. Assessment of the time of arrival disclosed wastewater behind one of the confinement
houses. The wastewater was slowly seeping overground and entering a subsurface drain system
that emptied into a nearby stream. This stream is a drainage feature UT of Chicken Bone Branch.
Approximately 50 yards downstream of the confluence of the drainage tile outflow and this
stream farm staff had constructed a dam and were pumping this wastewater/freshwater mixture

Subsequentfiollow-up visits confirmed that farm staff continued to pump the waste from all
three locations back into the waste treatment system. Discussions with farm staff indicated the
problem was discovered around 9.30 am *and containment began around 10: 1 5am. Mr. AJ Linton
in his report of the events states he called the FRO at approximately 1:00 pm.

DM Farms of Rose Hill LLC 'AN
PO BOX 1087 ROSE HILL, NC 28458
Mr. Paul Rawls
NC Division of Water Quality
225 Green Street — Suite 714 Systel Building
Fayetteville, NC 28301-5043 December 31, 2003
Subject: Response to NOV for NPDES # NC 0086614
Dear Mr. Rawls:
This letter is in response to the Notice of Violation dated December 3, 2003 for facility No. 82-77 located in
Sampson County. Upon reviewing the information given below, we request that you rescind the NOV that your division
issued.
We at DM Farms, strive to keep all of our farms in compliance with all applicable laws. During the first six
months of this year, we had far greater than average rainfall. It is for that reason, we find it very frustrating that your
division would issue a NOV for freeboard violations at the above mentioned farms. As you can see from the graphs
provided, DM Farms went into the winter of 2002, and spring of 2003 with our lagoons at, or nearly at, stop pump. We
have included graphs which track our lagoon levels each week in relation to the min received during the same week. In
the year 2001, we received 20.2 inches of rain for the months of January — June. For the same time period in 2002, we
received 24.3 inches of rain. For the same time period this year, we received 36.02 inches of min, which was 13.8 inches
more than the average of the prior two years. We were in telephone contact with your office and notified you as required.
We sent the required paper work as instructed by your inspectors. We accompanied your inspector on a site visit of the
farm. We irrigated the waste on the spray -fields as conditions allowed and lowered our lagoon levels to the required
minimums. We feel that our actions were appropriate and responsible given the conditions we faced. As for steps to
prevent this in the future, we will continue to maintain our lagoons at the lowest possible level during each season.
We hope this will answer any questions you may have regarding the situations as well as plans to prevent this in
the future. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 910-289-7364 ext. 202 or you may page
me at 910-296-5086.
Sincerely,
AJ Linton
Environmental Resource Specialist 11

the dealer where the system was purchased, prepare an operation and maintenance plan for
the irrigation system so that the producer knows how to operate the equipment to m—,-[ Uie
non -discharge requirements.
The waste management plan for this operation is based on yields higher than what is now
recommended by NTRCS; however, these yields are obtainable under high levels of
management and the farmer has supporting documentation to justify higher nitrogen
application rates.

tilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
ie waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
zvironmentally safe manner. Always apply effluent based on the
?eds of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
iste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
)11 types are important as they have different infiltration
ites and leaching potential. Effluent shall not be applied to
ind eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
)ply material on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
ozen. Either of these conditions .say result in runoff to
irface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
,oid drift and downwind odor problems. `To maximize the value
nutrients for crop production and to reduce'the potential
r pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop -or
t more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
effluent will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content'For this type of facility. Annual acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the nutrient analysis
report for your nutrient mnnsar►c,.nent facility.

In response to citizen complaint on November 25, 1996, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality performed an inspection of your farm located off SR1944. The
inspection revealed that animal waste had been applied on two separate fields in such a manner that a
significant amount of waste material was allowed to runoff into a nearby creek. This creek is an
Unnamed Tributary to Six Runs Creek and is considered waters of the State and is classified as Class
"C-SW" waters. It was also noted that severe erosion problems (i.e. rills) existed in many areas of
the spray fields which probably compounded the runoff problems. In addition, it was evident that
waste had been applied on steeply sloped sections of the spray field which are also susceptible to
drainage problems. To avoid discharge problems in the future, it may become necessary to perform
some land grading work on the spray fields and adjust the recommended application rates. Please be
reminded that by allowing a discharge to take place without the appropriate permit, you are in

File No. IUD 97-016
This letter transmits notice of a civil penalty assessed against DM Farms in the amount of
$5,474.30 including $674.30 in investigative costs.
Attached is a copy of the assessment document explaining this penalty. This action was
taken under the authority vested in me by delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department
of Environment and Natural Resources. Any continuing violation(s) may be the subject of a new
enforcement action, including an additional penalty.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of
Environment, and Natural Resources (do not include waiver farm).
Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further enforcement action for
any continuing or new violation(s).

2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a
detailed justification for such request:
A request for remission or mitigation is limited to consideration of the
reasonableness of the amount of the penalty and is not the proper procedure
for contesting the accuracy of any of the statements contained in the
assessment letter. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an
administrative hearing, such a request must be accompanied by a waiver of
your right to an administrative hearing and a stipulation that there are no
factual or legal issues in dispute. You must execute and return to this
office the attached waiver and stipulation form and a detailed statement
which you believe establishes whether:
(a) one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in G.S. 143B-
282. 1 (b) were wrongfully applied to the detriment of the
petitioner;
(b) the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage
resulting from the violation;
(c) the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(d) the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous
violations;
(e) payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the
remaining necessary remedial actions.
Please submit this information to the attention of:

Additional Information Request
Magnolia 4 Sow Farm
Sampson County
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has received a revised application to combine Farms 82-77
with Farms 82-717, 82-27, 82-29, and 82-33 with a combined waste utilization plan and irrigation
system. As you know, following a discharge of waste to waters of the State, the DW(,) Fayettevillip
Regional Office, via their letterof July 21-1997, had recommended to evaluate the slope portion of field
# 2 (Mag 4 Sow Farm) and determine if the continued use of these areas is prudent in light of the history
of discharges and steep grade of these sections. The revised waste utilization plan that you submitted
with the combined permit application still has Field # 2 in the spray field with some reduced acreage.
Please verify in writing that the problems with the slopy area of this field have been properly addressed
to prevent any further discharges from this facility.
Please reference.the subject farm number when providing the requested information. All
information should lie signed and submittedinduplicate to my attention k i A'Mr;1 10 1 GGQ �f +1' -AA­­

of March 10, 1998. 1 enclose a check in the amount of $5,474.30 as payment of the civil penalty
assessed. This payment should not be construed as an admission of any of the findings in the
assessment. D.M. Farms" is making this payment to avoid the expense of contesting this
assessment, not because it agrees with the amount of the assessment or any of the findings.
Sopcifically, D.M. Farms does not agree that its wastewater reached a tributary adjoining the
sprayfield and does not agree with other findings describing its operations and the incident at
issue. We would, however, like to put this incident behind us. As indicated to your staff, D.M.
Farms has taken steps to assure that an incident of this nature will not arise in the future.

This letter is written on behalf of DM Farms of Rose Hill, L.L.C. ("DM Farms").
On T)erpmher 15, 1998, DM Farms was ordered to apply for an NPDES DES permit by
January 4, 1999. As you know, NCDENR has not required (or accepted) NPDES permit
applications for animal farms which have experienced a discharge, but instead, has regulated
these entities under the non -discharge program.
Enclosed is the completed NPDES permit application which you provided to David
Hulbert of DM Farms on December 17, 1998. We trust the application is in order, but if you
have questions or need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Very truly yours,

in charge (01C) of the animal waste management system. The animal waste.management
system shall be operated by the OIC or a person under the OIC's supervision.
3. The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the
CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not
exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm
event plus an additional I foot of structural freeboard. [TAKE OUT NEXT SENTENCE

[TAKE OUT THIS PARAGRAPH IF NOT APPLICABLE] In the case of
lagoons/storage ponds in series that are gravity fed, the 25-year, 24-hour storm event
and/or the heavy rainfall factor storage requirements for the system may be designed into
the lowest lagoon/storage pond in the system. However, adequate freeboard must be
designed into each of the upper lagoons/storage ponds to allow sufficient storage to
prevent the waste level from raising into the structural freeboard while the storm water is
draining into the lowest lagoon in the system.
4. The Division may require any monitoring (including but not limited to groundwater,
surface water, animal waste, *sludge, soil and plant tissue) necessary to determine the
source, quantity, quality, and effect of such waste upon the waters of the State. Such

reporting systems, shall meet all applicable Environmental Management Commission
requirements.
5. Any containment basin, such as a lagoon or storage pond, used for animal waste
management shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of this permit
after closure of the animal feeding operation or non-use or abandonment of said
containment basis. Closure of a containment basin, in accordance with the 'Natural
Resource Conservation Service (MRCS) No Iffil Carolina "11-11, e ri m Standard for 'Closlj= Of
Abandoned Waste Facilities," January 1997 or any subsequent amended, will cause said

Dear DM Farms:
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR I, M2, DRY I, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR I, SLUR2,
SLD I, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
DWQ staff at [phone] ext. 571.

permit for the subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H
.0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Pen -nit.
On October 19, 1999, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Oualitv inspected the Magnolia 4 swine facility in Sampson
County. Wastewater was observed being sprayed directly into a wooded area
which clearly is not a portion of the waste application field. This was the result of
improper operation of the irrigation equipment. General Permit condition 11. 1 states
0—t 'IT nnfl etnrnop facilities, nnri land an
VII"V "The collection, treatment, application
equipment and fields shall be maintained at all times and properly operated.".
Wastewater was also excessively ponded in portions of the spray field, and
observed leaving the field at one location, General Permit condition 11.4 states that
"Land application rates shall be in accordance with the CAWMP. In no case shall
land application rates exceed the Plant Available Nitrogen rate for the receiving
crop or result in runoff during any given application.".
The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed:
1. Provide a detailed explanation as to why the runoff from the application field
occurred,

The intent of this communication is to provide you with a detailed account of the events
of October 7, at facility no. 82-77, as well as our response to the problem and our actions
to prevent this type of situation in the future. This letter should satisfy the Section III
+
re'uirement of"LliU c general' Peru iL.

On September 21, 2000 we installed an additional recycle pump at Magnolia 4. This
work was done so the recycle flush system will only operate during time periods when
farm staff is present. This will facilitate an environment in which any problem with the
recycle system will be identified very quickly. After installing the additional recycle
pump, we realized that our recycle plumbing system needed to be cleaned. This cleaning
took place on September 22. After this cleaning, we decided to replace the valves on the
recycle plumbing as a safeguard. The job took place on Friday, October 6. The
contractor completed the work late on Friday evening, October 6 and restarted the recycle
pump. The tank over flowed due to the contractor's improper setting of the new valves.
As the farm staff arrived on Saturday morning, October 7, they discovered that a flush
tank had over flowed. At the point that they discovered the problem, the tank was not
over flowing, but appeared that it had been. The staff immediately turned off the valves
and proceeded to get a tractor to contain any waste. A small earthen dam was
constructed to stop any flow, This was successfully completed within a matter of
minutes. The farm staff then called supervisory staff, It took several attempts to contact
the appropriate personnel. A.J. Linton, DM Farms Land and Nutrient Management
Specialist, arrived at the farm around noon. He made an assessment of the situation and
called the after hours number per our action plan. As you are aware, he then met you at
the farm sometime between 3:30 and 4:00 for your visit to the farm. At the time of your
conversation with A.J., it was his understanding that you would fax a letter to us to which
a4rnA ke'A LY igt ii
yY., rVo %Aw, require responu ILaVnnoreceived arty comun cation on October
11, .1 called your office in order to get further direction. I am writing this letter* based on
our discussion.
Since the incident, 1Have consulted with an engineer in an effort to create an additional
safety mechanism in the recycle system. There are two additional steps that we will take

in order to prevent this type of problem. First, we will require that one of our staff be
present when work is performed on any recycle system to insure that calibration of the
flow is done correctly and potential problems don't exist- Additionally, we will rp rnfit
each flush tank so that the over flow capacity is in excess of the maximum pump capacity
even with improper valve settings. This will prevent this type of problem in the future.
If vnit have further m-i sinns, please Lel free to contact A.J. ;-V—ilVL

During the 1999 session, the North Carolina General Assembly passed a law directing the North
Carolina Department of Environment of Natural Resources (DENR) to develop an inventory and
ranking of all inactive lagoons and storage ponds in the State. In order to meet this directive, a
representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your
property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were
previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at least one year.
The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using
this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as high, medium or low according to its
potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structure(s) was ranked as
follows:
Structure Number Surface Area (Acres} Rankin
1 0.85 Medium
2 3.45 Medium
This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit. Changes in
these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your
waste structure(s) in the future.
Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been
provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider
additional requirements for future management of these structures which may include requiring
proper closure of inactive lagoons. and storage ponds according to current or alternative standards.

Regardless of their ranking, owners of all waste lagoons and storage ponds have certain
management responsibilities. These include taking appropriate actions to eliminate current
discharges, prevent future discharges and to insure the stability of their structures. Staff of the
Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of all inactive structures that have been
determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data
collected by the Department.
All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed
the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or
agronomic -- - � --I-- ---w major
must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical
specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is an
excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, structure

requirements.
Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for
any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of
surface water or groundwater quality standards.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process. If you have questions concerning
your inactive structures, please contact the staff of either in the Division of Water Quality or the

NOTES FOR THE FILES
INVESTIGATION CHRONOLOGY
DM FARMS, MAG 4 FACILITY
SAMPSON COUNTY
Joe Albiston with the Nondischarge Compliance and Enforcement Unit contacted Paul Rawls
Saturday ti4t:,ber 711000 13:1p.m.
Albiston reported that he had received a call from the State Warning Point at 13:26. The call relayed
that DM Farm; Mr. A.J. Linton had reported a spill of swine waste at the Mag 4 farm in Sampson
County. Linton had indicated that the spill was discovered at 8:00 a.m. that morning (10/712000) by
farm staff and that waste had not reached surface waters.
Rawls contacted Linton at [phone] and asked for details.
Linton indicated that the spill had originated from a flush tank and that the spillage had not reached
surface waters.
Rawls traveled to the DM Farms Mag 4 facility that afternoon (10/7/2000) arriving at 3:55 p.m.
The investigation revealed the following:
-Rawls met with Mr. Linton. Mr. Linton again stated that waste had not reached to surface
Waters.
-Mr. Linton stated that the spill had resulted due to a contractor that had replaced valves on
The flush tank In the confinement barn (the barn was the last barn nearest to the
Secondary lagoon).
-A very small amount of what appeared to be wastewater was pooled on the
ground near the flush tank at the rear of the barn (est volume of the pooled waste
Approximately 2 gallons)
-Soil appeared to be wet/saturated and the spill appeared to have traveled from the end of
the barn down a service road/driveway toward the primary lagoon.
-a;vau ycu �ua�tia aa■ uau 0 u■atui rucudbt—bed kuiaws gas appvam su A. LP crust. "KAU i uu )
-Mr. Linton Indicated that he applied 600 lbs of granulated lime to the affected area.
-The saturated soil was visually traced from the flush tank, along the service road/driveway
to a point where the saturated soil left the road. The flow of the waste then appeared
to travel downward to a ditch. The saturated soil appeared to travel to a point near
but not in the ditch.
-Further observations and discussions revealed that the efforts had been made to block the
path of the waste from entering the ditch.
-Samples were taken from:
1. A point between the primary and secondary lagoon
2. A point downstream of where the drainage feature between the lagoons entered
a UT. Location was at a farm road crossing.
3. A point Upstream of the confluence of the drainage feature and the UT.
4. A point in a drainage ditch upstream of the point believed to be where the spill
could have entered the ditch. The ditch had clear flowing water .
5. A point downstream of the point believed to be where the spill could have
entered the ditch. The ditch had clear flowing water, no visible difference from
sample point #4.
Mr. Linton did not have an estimate of the volume of the spill at the time of the Investigation.
I walked the path of the spill several times and could not trace the spillage all the way to the water.

Dear Mr. Rawls,
I am responding to your requests as outlined in your notice of violation dated May 5, 2000 for
Facility No. AWS 820077.
The events that occurred on October 18, 1999 were a result of several factors. In the five weeks
preceding, the facility had received in excess of 28 inches of rainfall. The impacts of Hurricane
Floyd just one month before were particularly significant to both the sprayneld conditions and
lagoon levels. We were making every effort to responsibly lower our lagoon levels and repair
sprayfield erosion resulting from the storm. Land application was difficult, as soil conditions
continued to present a challenge. In that particular event, an error was made in calibrating the
+ A . + - --t— t--
--A —C+Ie,-eel with the pump timer. This resul marullr, LL LU UIV

reel in time to change the gun arc and avoid a wooded area. This also resulted in the gun
continuing to spray when fully retracted.
si
nce this event- I emp
loyed the verviner. of an irriastio dealer ntiri qervinp tprhnirinn to evaluate
our irrigation reels. I personally accompanied him in inspecting each of our reels. During this
thorough inspection, speed compensation devices were checked, as well as all other components
of the reel. This effort was made to insure all equipment is working properly and calibrations will
be correct. We have also hired a land and nutrient management specialist to oversee our
irrigation efforts. This is an added staff position for our organization to facilitate an even higher
level of supervision. He has previously been employed with a swine integrator as irrigation
manager and also has experience as a technical specialist. Additionally, the area which was
saturated and ponding has been re -planted, but taken out of the waste plan and will not be
irrigated. This will create a significant buffer.
We sincerely regret this incident, and have spent a great deal of time and money in the last
months to ensure that our equipment is operated properly. If you have any further questions, feel
free to contact me at you convenience. I can be reached by pager at [phone] or voice mail
at [phone] ext. 4423.

For facilities that are identified with waste in their lagoon(s) below the level required to be
maintained for structural stability but not adequate to also retain the 25 year, 24 hour rainfall even (typically
12 - 19 inches):
1. The producer will be required to submit a plan of action within 48 hours to lower and maintain the
lagoon level to a point below that needed for both structural stability and the 25 year, 24 hour
rainfall event. The plan should be forwarded to the Fayetteville Regional Office:
Division of Water Quality
225 Green Street - Suite 714
Fayetteville, NC 28314
Phone: [phone] Fax: [phone]
DWQ can not and will not condone any discharge of waste from the facility to the surface waters
as part of the management plan.
I DWQ can not and will not condone the land application of waste at levels above that specified by
the facility's CAWMP or in violation of any other part of the CAWMP.
4. The producer should consider pump and haul to another facility, that can adequately manage the
waste in accordance with its CAWMP, as part of their plan.
5. If the producers plan can not adequately demonstrate the ability to reduce the lagoon level below
that required for both structural stability and the 25 year, 24 hour rainfall event within 30 days (or
before the lagoon level is projected to rise to a level above that required for structural stability if
less than 30 days) without the removal of animals from the facilities, then removal of animals must
be a component of this plan. The number of animals removed must be to a level at which the
producer can adequately demonstrate the ability to manage the lagoon level below the level
needed for both structural stability and the 25 year, 24 hour storm event.

Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 919/733-0026.

#82029
Dear Mr. McLamb:
William W. Cobey, Jr., Secretary
Pursuant to the Dam Safety Law of 1967, an inspection of the above
referenced dam was made by personnel of this office on March 15, 1989. Our
records indicate that you are the owner of this dam located west of US 701
south of Clinton, NC in Sampson County. This dam is presently considered in
the intermediate hazard classification because a failure of the dam could
cause significant damage to downstream areas.
The Dam Safety Law of 1967 provides for the certification and inspection
of dams in the interest of public health, safety, and welfare, in order to
reduce thp- risk of failure of such dams. to prevent injuries to persons,
damage to property, and to insure the maintenance of stream flows.
According to the above mentioned inspection, the dam was overtopping at
the time of this inspection. Other than overtopping the dam appeared to be in
good condition. Continued overtopping could result in a failure of the dam
resulting in severe environmental damage and violation of other environmental
regulations. Such violations could result in further enforcement actions.
Although no specific problems were observed, the following items perti-
nent to maintenance and operation of the dam are recommended:
1. Periodically remove trees less than about six inches in diameter and
thick undergrowth from the slopes and crest of the dam. This will
serve to (A) prevent the formation of a root system which might
significantly increase seepage through the dam which could ultimately
result in failure of the structure. (B) reduce the possibility of
damage to the dam due to the uprooting of trees by wind or other
natural causes, and (C) facilitate ease of inspection and increase
the likelihood of early detection of more serious problems connected
with the dam.

2. Periodically monitor the subject dam and appurtenant works with
respect to elements affecting its safety. This is in light of the
legal duties, obligations, and liabilities arising from the ownership
and/or operation of a dam.
3. Activate pumps more often to prevent overtopping.
The above recommendations were based upon a visual inspection of surface
features of the dam only. The stability of a dam is also dependent upon
subsurface forces such as settling and seepage which may change over time.
Although we will continue to inspect your dam on a regular basis, it is
recommended that you or your representative regularly inspect the dam to look
for any unusual features on the embankment which may be surface expression of
a problem within the dam. Most dam owners have received a Dam Operation and
Inspection Manual to assist in maintaining their dam in a proper manner. If
you have not received this manual and would like a copy, please contact me and
one will be sent free of charge.
In the event that a possible problem is found, you should contact a
registered professional engineer or this office to inspect the dam. In order
to help us keep our records up-to-date and therefore serve you better, please
notify us concerning any changes in ownership. Your cooperation in this
effort is greatly appreciated.
Please be advised that all hazard classifications are subject to change
due to the potential for future downstream development. If there are any
questions or if we can be of any assistance, please contact us.

The Division has completed review of the information related to the groundwater requirements of
the subject permit. An evaluation of the groundwater flow conditions of the area in and around the
Dell Farm spray field was conducted to determine the probable cause of nitrate levels in the private
well located at 5151 Waycross Road. Measurements made in November of 2001 support the
previous opinions stated by DM Farms that the flow direction of the groundwater and source area of
the nitrate are not related to the Dell Farm spray field.
The Division concludes that DM Farms has complied with the permit conditions relative to
groundwater monitoring. Please continue to conduct the required monitoring specified in your

SUBJECT: Public Meeting
NPDES Permit NCO086614
Magnolia (Mag) IV Farms Complex
Sampson County
On November 18, 1999 1 held a meeting at the Sampson
County Agri -Exposition Center to receive public comment
regarding NPDES Permit Number NCO086614 which the Division of
Water Ouality (DWO) proposes to issue to D. M. Farms sai- nose
­_;� I,,
Hill, L.L.C.(DM Farms) for the Mag IV complex of farms in
Sampson County. The Mag IV complex consists of five farms
which are Melville 1, Melville 2, Dell, Section 1 Site 4 and
Mag IV. DM Farms submitted an application for an NPDES
Permit pursuant to a December 21, 1998 order by Superior
Court Judge James Fox. These five farms are tied together by
a complex of lagoons and spray fields.
.,On the day of the hearing, Superior Court Judge Donald
Stephens issued a Temporary Restraining Order requiring the
Department to limit the subject of the meeting to the
issuance of an NPDES Permit to DM Farms only. As meeting
officer, I complied with that order to the best of my
ability.
The hearing was attended by seven people not working
for the DWQ. Only David Bookbinder with the American Canoe
Association made a presentation. At the conclusion of the
meeting I left the hearing record open for thirty days or
until December 16, 1999. Written comments were received from
DM Farms and the Southern Environmental Law Center. The
Canoe Association, 't-1-ae Professional Paddlers
Association and the North Carolina Conservation Council

submitted a joint written statement. The comments take one of two
positions; that the NPDES Permit is unnecessary and goes to far or that
an NPDES Permit issued under the provisions of the Clean Water Act is
necessary to regulate the Mag IV complex and should go further than the
draft permit we took to public notice. All written comments received
during the comment period were produced by law firms or the Southern
Environmental Law Center. The comments therefore are in part highly
legalistic in nature. Before taking final action on the application I
would suggest that you request the Attorney General's Office to look at
these comments.
It is my feeling that our non -discharge permit system has served
us well in terms of regulating the Concentrated Animal Feeding
Operation (CAFO) industry. However, it is my recommendation that NPDES
Permit Number NCO086614 be issued. I am making that recommendation for
three reasons: First; regulating the CAFOs under the NPDES program will
allow for increased public involvement in this high profile industry.
Second; the DWQ has previously committed to issue NPDES Permits to
CAFOs which have had an illegal discharge to surface waters.., Lastly;
the United States Environmental Protection Agency has expressed a
preference that the State of North Carolina regulate the CAFO industry
under the NPDES permit program. If the decision is made to issue this
permit, I recommend that NPDES Permit Number NCO086614 be first
modified prior to issuance to DM Farms for the Mag IV complex. I will
discuss my suggested modifications in the following paragraphs.
The observation was made that the draft permit is not clearly
dentified as an NPDES Permit. If the decision is made to issue NPDES
Perm 4+-i'utiWer
wrr-ne%nre .1 A �L. 11
it should be: identified as an
LN�-VUQUU.L-11 t.Lle permL
NPDES Permit being issued under the authority of North Carolina General
Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement be between North
Carolina and the United States Environmental Agency dated December 6,
1983.
Several times in the hearing record it was mentioned that the
public has no opportunity to review and comment upon Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans (CAWMPs). The Permit as drafted incorporates
the related CAWMPs into the permit thereby probably making the plans
subject to public review and comment. Issuing NPDES Permits to CAFOs
opens up public notice and comment issues which because of a different
statutory basis do not exist in the non -discharge permit program under
which we currently regulate CAFOs. obviously issuance of NPDES Permits
to this industry would likewise have the effect of allowing third party
suits.
The hearing record indicates that citizen access to information
remains a concern. The public has no access to waste application
records or soil and waste analyses for the reason that these documents
are kept on each

Kerr T. Stevens

individual farm and therefore are not a part of the "public record".
As you well know DWQ staff performing animal waste inspections
routinely review such documents at the farm. Obviously inspectors have
no means to copy such documents and rarely obtain copies of those
records thereby allowing them to become apart of the public record. I
think that difficulty of public access to these records is a valid
concern. I do not have a ready solution to this problem and would like
for the DWQ over time to think of a means for the public to gain access
to these records.
The hearing record suggests that we require stream monitoring to
urther insure that animal waste being land applied does not run off
/the application site and enter surface waters. I do not find requiring
stream , am monitoring to be an efficient way of further insuring site
V retention of waste and therefore do not -so recommend. If the DWQ feels
that waste run off is a sufficient problem to justify further action,
possibly DWQ inspectorscouldgive additional attention to buffers when
conducting animal waste management system inspections.

DM Farms, in their written statement, raise the issue that NPDES
Permit Number NCO086614 as currently drafted contains many conditions
regulating activities which are not regulated by the Clean Water Act.
I view these conditions as properly appearing in a permit document for
r Pn. T"hp-rszfn�rA if i-li= decision is made to 4��iip 4-1-,4- NTnnV0 nerml 4-
A -- ­_ - - - - - - - -- ­�� �1 � �A� I., Z, _L
we will have to decide if any further action is required in order to
retain these or similar conditions.
Following the public meeting, I asked Groundwater Section staff of
the Fayetteville Regional office to look at the farms making up the Mag
IV complex to see if NPDES Permit Number NC0086614, if issued, should
require groundwater monitoring. The Groundwater Section does in fact
recommend that groundwater monitoring take place at this location.
Attached is a copy of Arthur Mouberry's February 22, 2000 memorandum to
me with attachments. It is my recommendation that all suggestions
relating to groundwater monitoring contained in that document be
incorporated as a part of NPDES Permit Number NC0086614.
It is my recommendation that Section VII, Subpart G of NPDES
Permit Number NCO086614 be removed in its entirety. If I were a
citizen wanting access to state's documents relating to Mag IV I would
read this subpart as making it excessively easy for DM Farms to claim
confidentiality and therefore deny public access those documents.
I understand from conversations with staff of the Non -Discharge
Permitting Unit that many of the conditions currently appearing in
NPDES Permit Number NCO086614 as drafted are there because of EPA
requirements. I could make many comments of.an editorial nature which
would make the permit more understandable to the person being
regulated. I make the offer to sit down with staff of the Non -
Discharge Permit Unit and go over the permit for this purpose if you
are so inclined.

I have purposefully avoided responding to many detailed technical
comments for the reason that I feel that the real issue here is whether
or not to issue an NPDES Permit. I am content to allow more technical
question to continue to be answered by the Interagency Group Guidance
Memorandum. I would point out that the Guidance Memorandum is not
subject to public review and comment in advance of adoption, which,
based on the comments I heard at the hearing, is a concern in some
quarters. I am available to meet with you to discuss my
recommendations in greater detail if you would find such a meeting
useful.

Groundwater Monitoring Recommendations

As requestedt" the Fayetteville Regional Office
has completed review of the subject facility
and it's need for groundwater monitoring.
Factors such as soil type and the location of
private water supply wells are the main
criterion evaluated in a review of this type.
Soil- drainage is a feature that indic_ate_s _-
waste receiving site's ability to retain the
waste water components in the soil for the
cover crop to effectively utilize. With swine
waste management, the most mobile waste
components are the nitrogen compounds. of the
nitrogen compounds, nitrate is the most mobile
and difficult to manage without loss to the
groundwater resource.

AN EOUAS. OPPORTUNITY / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50% RECYCLED/10% POST-CONNUMER PAPER

The S1S4 Facility has a predominance of well drained soil
types. These type soils are a higher risk for nitrate
loss into the shallow groundwater system. The receptors
of concern at the S1S4 Facility are the surface water
tributaries which traverse this site. The location of
the proposed monitoring wells on the attached man are
sited so that the groundwater quality can be monitored
between the area where waste is being stored/applied and
the receiving surface water tributaries.
The Dell Farm and the Melville 2 Facilities are also of
concern because of a similar soil type in the southern
border of the two facilities. This area has the
additional factor of private off -site water supply wells
in close proximity to waste application sites. These
factors make this portion of the farm complex an area
where groundwater monitoring is recommended. The
attached map shows the proposed location of these
monitoring wells as well.
The Melville I and Mag 4 Facilities were also evaluated.
The results of this evaluation determined that the
predominate soil types are moderately well drained.
Relative to well drained soil, moderately well drained
and poorer drained soils have less potential to impact
groundwater and are at increased risk of overland run-off
type problems. There were no private off -site water
supply wells in the vicinity of either of these
facilities. Therefor no groundwater monitoring is
recommended at these facilities at this time.
After Central office Staff has reviewed these comments
please forward the GW Section's comments to Roy Davis in
