IV. Type and Purpose of Sampling Inspection(s)
The purpose of the compliance sampling inspection was to assess applicability of and compliance with
the CAFO requirements under the Clean Water Act at 40 C.F.R. Part 122.23.
V. Sampling Inspection Summary
On Tuesday, May 21st and Wednesday, May 22nd, 2024, Nafisah Ali, and Anna Hatke of FSB 2 (" the EPA
Sampling Team "), conducted wastewater sampling of three locations at Veldman Farm (see photos and
descriptions included as Attachment 1). The sampling activities were conducted in accordance with the
Standard Operating Procedure for the Collection of Chemical and Biological NPDES Water and
Wastewater Samples FSBSOP - NPDES Water Revision 2, 2020.
On Tuesday May 21st, 2024, the EPA sampling team collected one grab sample (" VF01 ") for Total
Suspended Solids (TSS), Source Tracking Analysis ($ STA), Ammonia (AMMO), Total Nitrogen (TN) and
Total Phophorous (TP). Total Suspended Solids sample were collected in a 1-liter (L) High Density
Polyethylene (HDPE) bottle. Source Tracking Analysis sample was collected in a 1-L Amber glass teflon,
lined cap bottle. Ammonia, Total Nitogen and Total Phophorous were collected in one 500 mL HDPE
bottle with preservative Sulfuric Acid to attain a pH of < 2. Samples were split with the facility; the EPA
sampling team provided the sample bottles. The samples collected by the EPA sampling team were then
placed in coolers with ice to maintain an internal temperature of less than 4 degrees Celsius.
On Wednesday May 22nd, 2024, the EPA sampling team collected two in - stream samples (VF02 and
VF03) for E. coli (Colilert - MPN), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Source Tracking Analysis ($ STA), Ammonia
(AMMO), Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phophorous (TP). The E. coli samples were collected in 120mL UV
Sterile, pre - preserved bottle with Sodium Thiosulfate. Total Suspended Solids samples were collected in
a 1-liter (L) High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bottle. Source Tracking Analysis samples were collected in
a 1-L Amber glass teflon, lined cap bottle. Ammonia, Total Nitrogen and Total Phophorous were collected
in one 500 mL HDPE bottle with preservative Sulfuric Acid to attain a pH of < 2. There were no split
samples with the facility.
The samples collected by the EPA sampling team were then placed in coolers with ice to maintain an
internal temperature of less than 4 degrees Celsius. Samples will be analyzed for E. Coli, at Endyne
Laboratory, 56 Etna Road Lebanon, NH 03766. Samples for TSS, $ STA, AMMO, TN, and TP will be
analyzed at the EPA New England Regional Laboratory in North Chelmsford, MA.
VI. Description of Sampling Location (in order of collection time)
Photographs depicting each sample location are included in Attachment 1 of this report.
VF01: Grab sample from a stagnant deposition of water immediately downhill of a large,
exposed tire pile was collected at Veldman Farm (6146 VT-22A). The sample was collected
approximately 3 feet from the Southern bank of the leachate run - off water as indicated by red
X. A sweet, fermented odor was detected. Color was clear - yellow, and turbidity was minimal.
Organic floatables were observed floating in the water. Specks of white foam was observed on

top of the water. Grasses and small juvenile trees were observed growing in and around the
stagnant water.
VF02: In - stream sample of unnamed Brook discharging into Lake Champlain collected at 537-7
Basin Harbor Road. The sample was collected approximately 1 foot from the Southern bank of
the stream approximately 50 feet upstream of a 2.5 foot - diameter PVC culvert as indicated with
red X. No notable odor was detected. Color was clear - brown, and turbidity was low. Yellowish-
white foam was observed collecting approximately 50 feet downstream before the culvert pipe.
VF03: In - stream sample of an unnamed brook discharging into wetlands surrounding Lake
Champlain collected at the intersection of Basin Harbor Road and Town Line Road. The sample
was collected approximately half a foot from the Northern bank of the approximately 10 feet
downstream of a PVC culvert pipe 1 foot in diameter as indicated by red X. No notable odor was
detected. Color was clear - yellow, and turbidity was low. Organic matter including leaves and
grass was observed floating on top of the water directly downstream of the culvert.

Analytical Procedure:
All samples were received and logged in by the laboratory according to the USEPA New England
Laboratory SOP for Sample Log - in.
Sample preparation and analysis was done following the EPA Region I SOP, LSBSOP - NO2 - NO34.
Combined nitrate and nitrite will be reported as nitrogen.
Total nitrogen (the sum of nitrate - nitrogen, nitrite - nitrogen, ammonia - nitrogen and organically bonded
nitrogen) will be reported as nitrogen.
Samples were analyzed according to LSBSOP - NO2 - NO34, which is currently under review.
Samples were analyzed on a SEAL AQ300 Discrete Analyzer.
Data were reviewed in accordance with the internal verification procedures described in the EPA New England Quality
Manual for NERL.

US EPA Region 1
Project Number: 24050033
Project:Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation Sampling Inspection
Analysis: HPLC / MS / MS Source Tracking Analysis
EPA Chemist: Peter Philbrook
Date Samples Received by the Laboratory: 05/23/2024
Analytical Procedure:
All samples were received and logged in by the laboratory according to the USEPA New England
Laboratory SOP for Sample Log - in.
Sample preparation and analysis was done following the EPA Region I SOP, LSBSOP - LCMS_STA3.
The SOP is based on an EPA Regional Analytical Method developed at the EPA New England Laboratory.
Data were reviewed in accordance with the internal verification procedures described in the EPA New England Quality
Manual for NERL.
Results relate only to the items tested or to the samples as received by the Laboratory. This analytical report shall not be
reproduced except in full, without written approval of the laboratory.
If you have any questions please call me at 617-918-8340.

Date Samples Received by the Laboratory: 05/23/2024
Analytical Procedure:
All samples were received and logged in by the laboratory according to the USEPA New England
Laboratory SOP for Sample Log - in.
Sample preparation and analysis was done following the EPA Region I SOP, LSBSOP - OPHOS - TP13.
The SOP is based on the AQ300 Method EPA-119-D Rev. 3A " Phosphorus - P, Total, in Surface and Saline
Waters, Domestic and Industrial Wastes " and EPA method 365.1 " Determination of Phosphorous by
Semi - Automated Colorimetry ", Revision 2.0, August 1993.
Samples were analyzed on a SEAL AQ300 Discrete Analyzer.
Results relate only to the items tested or to the samples as received by the Laboratory. This analytical report
shall not be reproduced except in full, without written approval of the laboratory.
Data were reviewed in accordance with the internal verification procedures described in the EPA New England Quality
Manual for NERL.
