Yes Planner Name/Company: Mauer and Stutz Note: A Nutrient Management Plan Review was not completed for this facility due to its size. 2.2 Walkthrough of the Facility Ben Atkinson and Cheryl Burdett (the Inspectors) met with Bruce Rodely (the IEPA Inspector) offsite and proceeded to the facility arriving at approximately 9:15 AM. The Inspectors donned their biosecurity boots and found Mr. Keith Richter (the Operator). The Inspectors presented their credentials and held an opening conference. During the opening conference, the Inspectors explained that the purpose of the inspection was to evaluate the facility's compliance with the Clean Water Act, discussed what areas of the facility would be inspected, and explained the Operator's right to claim CBI. The Operator stated that prior engagements made the timing of the inspection unacceptable. The Inspectors asked if it would be possible to conduct the walkthrough of the facility and schedule a time to complete the interview portion of the inspection by phone at a more convenient time. The Operator agreed and the walkthrough of the facility began. The walkthrough began on the west side of the Dry Cow Barn. The Inspectors observed manure solids and dark brown liquid around the exterior of the gate located in the southwest corner of the Dry Cow Barn. The Inspectors also observed that the roof gutter downspout outlet was located in the same area (photo 1). The Inspectors noted that if stormwater were to come into contact with manure and discharge that it would be violation of the CWA. The Inspectors then walked east along the south side of the Dry Cow Barn past manure Pit 1 and observed the Hospital Barn (photos 2 and 3). The Operator stated that manure from the Dry Cow Barn and the Heifer Barn was pushed to Pit 1. The Inspectors observed manure solids and dark brown liquid around the entrance to the Hospital Barn and around the outdoor lot area attached to the south side of the Hospital Barn (photos 4 and 5). There was no containment for any manure or process wastewater around the Hospital Barn Pen. The Inspectors noted that, given the proximity to Bull Branch, it 7 Richter Dairy September 14th and September 27th seemed likely that runoff from the area could potentially discharge. The Operator stated that he had been intending to abandon the Hospital Barn but had not done so. The Inspectors walked north along the east side of the Heifer barn to the north side of the facility. The Inspectors observed an apparent flow path from the north end of the feed bags toward the north end of the property (photos 12-14). The Inspectors did not observe the flow path continuing into the field to the north. The Inspectors then walked east along the north side of the facility to the west bank of Bull Branch and observed water within the Bull Branch (photos 15 and 16). The Inspectors then walked south along the west bank of Bull Branch. The Inspectors observed a mound of manure solids north of the Hospital Barn (photo 17). The Inspectors also observed dark colored leachate (photo 25) and manure solids in the access road and along the west bank of Bull Branch (photos 18-28). The Inspectors also observed further manure solids around the outdoor pen on the southside of the Hospital Barn (photos 29-31). The Inspectors then walked east across the access road culvert over Bull Branch to the feed storage area on the east side of Bull Branch. The Inspectors observed fibrous solids on the culvert (photos 33 and 58). The Inspectors observed Pit 2 and Pit 3 which collect the runoff from the feed storage areas on the east side of Bull Branch (photos 34 and 35). The Inspectors walked north along the east bank of Bull Branch and observed a solid manure stack on the northwest corner of the feed storage area (photos 39-41, and 44). It appeared that the runoff from the manure pile was being collected by Pit 2 (photo 40). The Inspectors also observed the Commodity Barn and a mound of organic solids (photos 45 and 46). The Inspectors walked south on the east side of the silos and then west to the Hay Barn. The Inspectors observed Pit 3 (photos 49-51). The Inspectors walked south to the south end of Pit 3 and observed a hose attached to a pump sitting at the south end of Pit 3. The opposite end of the hose was lying on the ground and oriented toward Bull Branch (photos 52-56). When asked what the pump was for, the Operator stated that he did not know why it was there and that his father had been put it there. At the Inspectors request, the hose was moved onto the Pit 3 area so it could not discharge to Bull Branch (photo 57). The Inspectors stated that they intended to walk along the west bank of Bull Branch. The Operator stated that it wouldn't be passable due to overgrown vegetation and suggested that the Inspectors look along the east side of the outdoor lot connected to the East Milk Cow Barn by looking through the barn. The Inspectors stated that they would still like to try to walk along the exterior wall of the outdoor lot and Pit 4. The Operator stated that it would be best to start from the south side and that he would not be able to join the Inspectors. The Inspectors walked west past the East Milk Cow Barn, the Milking Parlor, and the West Milk Cow Barn (photos 59 and 60). The Inspectors walked to the west side of the facility. The Inspectors observed a white pipe protruding from the east side of the roadside ditch (photo 61). The Inspectors walked south along the outside of the white 8 Richter Dairy September 14th and September 27th fence along the west side of the facility. The Inspectors observed a depression that appeared to be a flow path for runoff from the denuded outdoor lot west of the West Milk Cow Barn (photos 62-64). The Inspectors continued south and observed a blue pipe protruding from the east side of the roadside ditch. The pipe appeared to be in line with a blue pipe connected to the downspout of the roof gutters on the West Milk Cow Barn (photos 65 and 66). The Inspectors observed that the outdoor lot was denuded (photos 68 and 69). The Inspectors continued walking south along the west fence and observed burnt vegetation and manure solids in a path from the area west of the Pit 4 ramp down to the roadside ditch (photos 70 - 77). The Inspectors then walked east toward Bull Branch. The Inspectors observed manure solids and burnt vegetation in a path from the area south of the Pit 4 ramp towards Bull Branch (photos 79-84). The Inspectors walked north along the east side of Pit 4 and observed manure solids deposited on the fence along Pit 4 (Photos 88 and 89). The Inspectors also observed Bull Branch was covered in foam (photos 92-97). The Inspectors continued north and observed manure deposited on top and exterior side of the east concrete wall of Pit 4 (photos 99-102). The Inspectors continued north and observed manure solids in the channel of Bull Branch (photos 109 and 110). The Inspectors also observed manure on the top of and along the exterior edge of the concrete wall on the east side of the outdoor lot south of the East Milk Cow Barn (photos 111 - 113). The Inspectors continued walking north and observed a hole in the concrete wall east of the East Milk Cow Barn which was allowing manure to flow down through a channel into Bull Branch (photos 117 - 131). The Inspectors observed liquid manure flowing in the channel and into Bull Branch. The Inspectors walked north and met with the Operator informing him of the active flow of manure to Bull Branch. The Inspectors asked if the Operator could take immediate steps to stop the flow of manure. The Operator stated that he would. The Inspectors then walked across the culvert over Bull Branch to the east side of Bull Branch and started walking south to observe Pit 5. The Inspectors observed an area west between Pit 5 and Bull Branch where there were multiple animal bones and decomposing animal carcasses (photos 134 -139). The Inspectors walked around Pit 5 and returned north to the EPA Vehicle. The Inspectors met the Operator and informed him that they would be taking samples and offered split samples. The Operator declined the split samples. The Operator notified the Inspectors that he had filled the area around the concrete hole with soil to stop the flow of manure. The Inspectors provided the Operator with a summary of the areas of concern they had observed which included the lack of containment for manure and runoff from the 9 Richter Dairy September 14th and September 27th Hospital Barn, the lack of containment for manure and runoff for the mound of manure north of the Hospital Barn, the paths of organic material and burned vegetation from the denuded earthen lot on the west side of the facility, and manure that had been flowing from the cracked wall into Bull Branch. The Inspectors then collected their sampling equipment and went to the north end of the facility to collect an upstream sample from Bull Branch (photos 170 - 171). The Inspectors then returned to confluence of the channel conveying manure from the cracked wall to Bull Branch and collected a sample from Bull Branch at the confluence with the channel (photos 177 - 181). The Inspectors observed that fill had been placed over the hole in the concrete wall (photos 182 and 183). The Inspectors then returned to their vehicle, preserved the samples, and exited the site. A follow up call to complete the interview portion of the Inspection was held on September 27th, 2022. The operator's responses during the interview portion of the Inspection were used to complete the checklist. During the interview, the Operator stated that the crack in the wall has been there for "a few months". 2.3 Closing Conference and Post-Inspection Table 9: Post Walk-Through Was a closing conference held? With whom? ______________________________________________________________________ A brief closing conference was held with the Operator and a tenative time was set up to complete the interview portion of the Inspection at a later date.
