Idaho Admin. Code r. 02.04.32.200 - WASTE STORAGE AND CONTAINMENT FACILITIES
01.
Wastewater Storage and Containment Facilities. All poultry AFOs
where process wastewater leaves the confinement area and has the potential to
impact water of the state or be in violation of state water quality standards
or ground water quality standards must have wastewater storage and containment
facilities designed, constructed, operated, and maintained sufficient to
contain: (3-15-22)
a. All process wastewater
generated on the facility during the non-land application season;
(3-15-22)
b. The runoff from a
twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour rainfall event; and
(3-15-22)
c. Either three (3)
inches of runoff from the accumulation of winter precipitation or the amount of
runoff from the accumulation of precipitation from a one-in-five (1 in 5) year
winter. (3-15-22)
02.
All Substances Entering Wastewater Storage and Containment
Facilities. All substances entering wastewater storage and containment
facilities must be composed of manure and process wastewater from the operation
of the poultry AFO. The disposal of any other materials into a wastewater
storage and containment facility, including, but not limited to, human waste,
is prohibited. (3-15-22)
03.
Waste Storage. Storage areas for poultry waste including compost
and solid manure storage areas must be located on approved soils and
appropriately protected to prevent run on and run off. (3-15-22)
04.
Waste and Wastewater System
Maintenance. Waste and wastewater storage and containment systems must
be maintained in a condition that allows the producer to regularly inspect the
integrity of the systems. (3-15-22)
05.
Additional Ground Water Protection
Requirements. The permittee must construct and maintain all waste
containment structures within the parameters of this rule, including the
Natural Resources Conservation Service Agricultural Waste Management Field
Handbook Appendix 10D (Appendix 10D) (March 2008 Edition) (USDA, NRCS), Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Idaho Conservation Practice Standard
Waste Storage Facility Code 313 December 2004, or American Society of
Agricultural and Biological Engineers Specification ASAE EP393.3 Manure
Storages February 2004 (see Section
004, Incorporation by Reference).
After inspection, if the Department has information that the waste containment
structure(s) has been compromised severely enough to no longer meet the
requirements of this rule, the Department may require an evaluation to be
conducted by a licensed professional engineer. The engineer will make
recommendations on steps needed to bring the facility into compliance with this
rule. The permittee is responsible for engineering and reconstruction costs. If
the permittee has a repeat waste containment compromise, as determined by the
department, the Director may require ground water monitoring by the permittee.
