farmers on environmental concerns and compliance issuesMr Barwick stated that he can assist with the decommissioning of hog farms Mr Barwickwas contacted by the current owner, Jones Creek, LLC, and

stated that the area in question is located in the 100 year floodplain anddiscussed the certification and permitting process Mr Barwick stated that he visited thesubject property and measured the depth of the pond in question stating that it is technicallya holding pond and not a lagoon due to its depth Mr Barwick shared his findings, includinga 3 foot layer that was tested and that visually and by touch did not look like hog wasteMr Barwick has spoken with Johnston County Soil and Water Mr Barwick stated thatany rain and flooding would have washed out any hog waste a long time ago that may havebeen in the holding pond Mr Barwick also spoke of wildlife present in the area and didntsee any concerns with impact on the wildlife Mr Barwick also stated that he feltcomfortable stating that the holding pond could probably be signed off as no longer beinga waste receiving structure, unless further testing is required2Chairman Letchworth asked Mr Barwick to speak more about his statement about signingoff that the holding pond is no longer a waste receiving structureMr Barwick stated that he would speak more with Johnston County Soil and WaterConservationMr Caldwell asked Mr Barwick if there was a way to determine 100 if there was nosludgeMr Barwick stated that he took samples and has not received the results He stated that heis looking for the nitrogen contained and nitrogen would be present anywhere there isdecomposing organic material Mr Barwick also stated that he would expect no fecalcoliform to be found in the compacted material in the holding pond and that an isotopestudy would be needed to determine if it was from hogs and not other animals _if any werefoundMs Hackler asked Mr Barwick about the decommissioning process for a hog waste farmMr Barwick explained the decommissioning processMs Hackler asked Mr Barwick about the samples he took from the holding pondMr Barwick confirmed that he had taken samples and sent them off He stated that the testsare testing for nitrogen and nutrient contentMs Hackler asked Mr Barwick ifthere are acceptable levels for clean upMr Barwick stated that you would have to look at the background material in the area andthat he couldnt provide a threshold amount Mr Barwick stated that the sample tests willreport what is in the material at the time the samples were collected Mr Barwick also gavesample ranges of results for active lagoons and olderabandoned lagoonsMs Hackler asked Mr Barwick if the sample test results came back with lower levelswould those results be additional evidence to offer that there is no longer a hog wasteproblem on the subject propertyMr Barwick stated that other conversations would need to be had to see if there is a bettermethod for determining if it is hog wasteMs Samantha Krop, a Neuse Riverkeeper with Sound Rivers, is an advocate for the NeuseRiver Ms Krop shared her concerns for the impact on the Black Creek watershed Shestated that her primary concern is the old hog waste lagoon located in the 100 yearfloodplain and adjacent to a blue line tributary Ms Krop spoke of an open investigationwith NCDEQ and a previous notice of violation for flooding into the nearby stream for theold hog farm Ms Krop also shared concerns about stormwater runoff Ms Krop requestedthat the Board seek out answers from the NCDEQ investigation before approving theproposed subdivision, as well as closing the lagoon3Ms Holmes asked Ms Krop about when the violation was issuedMs Krop responded in February 1996 after a site visit in 1995Ms Hackler asked Ms Krop about the ongoing NCDEQ investigation and if she knew thecurrent statusMs Krop responded that she believes the investigation was started recently due to concernsfrom locals and that NCDEQ cannot share information about open investigations Ms Kropdid speak with someone from NCDEQ and confirmed there was an open investigationMr Hewitt asked Ms Krop about the relevance of the notice of violationMs Krop responded that the notice of violation shows that the lagoon was overflowing atthat time when there was less annual precipitation and less severe climate weather If it wasoverflowing into the surrounding swamp and Black Creek at that time, Ms Krop suggestswe can surmise with more annual precipitation and more stormwater runoff from theimpervious surfaces that there would be significantly more floodingMr Hewitt asked Ms Krop who issued the violation and why hasnt any action been takensince 1996Ms Krop responded that NCDEQ issued the violation and they currently have an openinvestigationMr Hewitt stated that the hog lagoon has been shut down since 19961997Ms Krop stated that the hog lagoon has not been legally shut down and there is a detailedprocessMr Hewitt asked Ms Krop ifNCDEQ had contacted the property owner about the openinvestigation and asked how she knew it was openMs Krop responded that the public cannot know the details of the investigation due toagricultural laws and that someone from NCDEQ stated there was an open investigationand they could not give her any information about itMr Hewitt asked Ms Krop about her reference to the lagoon whereas Mr Barwick statedit was not a lagoonMs Krop responded that they have documents from NCDEQ with the exact location of thewaste lagoon She stated that although it may not be functioning as a waste lagoon now, itwas once a waste lagoon Ms Krop also stated that without proper sampling and testing,that question catmot be answered and should be left up to NCDEQMr Hewitt asked Ms Krop if she had been to the subject property4Ms Krop responded that she has been near the subject property but has not been on thesubject property since it was private propertyMr Bryan Brice, 127 West Hargett St, Suite 600, Raleigh, NC, is an Environmental LawAttorney representing Mr Don Byrd with Pleasant Grove Holdings, LLC, an adjacentproperty owner Mr Brice shared envirom11ental concerns with the subject property,specifically the existence of a hog lagoon that was in operation for over 20 years and withover 300 hogs when in operation and the amount of waste that went into the lagoon MrBrice referenced Chapter 14 Article 3 of the Johnston County Land Development Codestating that it requires the Planning Board to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of thecommunity and the surrounding enviromnent Mr Brice provided additional materials forthe Plam1ing Boards review that included information from NCDEQ and regulatoryframework for how a hog lagoon is to be closed Mr Brice shared concerns of no newinformation since the last hearing of this subdivision proposal, the demolishing of barns onthe subject property, and the filling in of wells on the subject property Mr Brice alsoshared concern for the hog lagoon not being shown on the preliminary site plan andstormwater runoff Mr Brice shared concern for an approval of the proposed subdivisionbefore more information is received from the NCDEQ investigationChairman Letchworth asked

District Mr Byrd spoke of their bicentennial farm and efforts to maintainBlack Creek Mr Byrd shared concerns for the impact on Black Creek with property bothupstream and downstreamMr Geno Kennedy, with Agriment Services, Inc, has experience with closing hogoperations Mr Kennedy advised that old hog farms that are not closed properly are aliabilityMr Brice asked Mr Kennedy about the proper procedureMr Kennedy responded that there will be qualities that show it is not an active operationand that proper testing of samples would provide more information He also stated thatsludge can become similar to compacted soil on the bottom allowing for aquatic life onsurface levelsChairman Letchworth asked Mr Kennedy if additional runoff could have the potential tobreak up the sludgeMr Ke1medy responded that he thought a piece of equipment would be needed to break upthe sludge and that the bottom of the lagoon is probably not flowing anywhereMs Hackler asked about a hurricanes ability to disturb the sludgeMr Kem1edy responded that a hurricane might disturb the sludge depending on the windforce Mr Kennedy advised of closing proceedings for lagoon closure standards5Mr Hewitt asked Mr Kennedy for clarification about the notice of violationMr Kennedy responded that the owner did not need a written permit under a certainnumber of hogsMr Hewitt asked Mr Kennedy for further clarification about a hog farm with less than 250hogs and if a permit was neededMr Kennedy responded that a permit may not be needed but that the facility still had tofollow water quality requirements of the state Mr Kennedy explained various permits andrequirementsMr Hewitt asked Mr Kennedy about the issue with the hog lagoon if there have been nohogs present since 1996Mr Kennedy responded that hog waste is not like human waste and a lagoon lacks thecapacity biologically to break down the wasteMr Hewitt asked Mr Kennedy about his experience with remediation of a hog operationthat had not been in operationMr Kennedy responded with his most recent experience in Craven CountyMr Brice asked Mr Kennedy if there could be more potential runoff after developmentMr Kennedy responded that he would leave that response to an engineer but it is likelythat water will run towards the swamp in his opinionMr Brice once again shared concern for an approval of the proposed subdivisionMs Holmes asked Mr Brice about multiple letters between the former owner and NCDEQregarding the discrepancy between the number of hogsMr Brice responded that those discrepancies were part of his concerns as wellMs Holmes asked Mr Brice about the current owner demolishing buildings and fillingwells on the subject property without permits and if there were open violations withJohnston CountyMr Brice responded that they did not have any documentation of open violations and theycould not find any permits on recordMs Holmes asked Mr Brice about the types of permits requiredMr Brice responded that he believes there are basic forms for filling in wells tlu·oughenviromnental health and a certified person will take test samples for asbestos to determineif a permit is needed6Chairman Letchworth asked Mr Brice if he knew of asbestos in the barns demolished orif speculationMr Brice responded that he did not know but that someone is supposed to find out beforedemolishingMr Hewitt stated that the applicant would consent to table the subdivision proposal if theBoard feels the NCDEQ open investigation is an issueMr Caldwell asked why the barns were demolished and wells filled in without permitsMr Hewitt stated that he was not aware of those being doneMs Holmes asked about the current owners knowledgeMr Hewitt stated that he did not know but he could ask to find outChairman Letchworth asked Mr Bagley about the blue line streams location and thenature of the streamMr Bagley responded that the blue line stream does have a defined stream bed and is fairlyflat Mr Bagley responded that there will be some stormwater running into the stream andthat they can divert some stormwater to the upper side where it naturally flows Mr Bagleystated that they are not proposing to direct any additional water to the former hog lagoonand have no plans to touch the former lagoonChairman Letchworth asked Mr Bagley if calculations had been done to understand thepossibility of the stream overflowing into the lagoonMr Bagley responded no but that he could show calculations that farmland turned into alow density subdivision produces less runoff and that will be shown during the stonnwaterpermit processMr Hudson asked Mr Bagley about runoff diffusing naturallyMr Bagley responded that an open channel is usually put in between lots past the septicareas and then spreads out and lessens the velocity of the waterMs Davis asked Mr Bagley about the responsibility of the floodplain and safety ofresidentsMr Bagley responded that they could remove the 100 year floodplain and replace it withretained by developer, essentially remove it from the subdivision and it be owned by thedeveloperThere was no further discussion7Chairman Letchworth asked for the staff recommendation
