This Subchapter describes rules to implement the provisions of 15A NCAC 02H .0200 ‑ Waste Not Discharged To Surface Waters, hereinafter called the Nondischarge Rule for Animal Waste Management Systems.  In agreement with the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) and the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), the Soil and Water Conservation Commission sets forth these Rules in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0217.  Alternatively, and in lieu of these Rules, the requirements of 15A NCAC 02H .0200 may be satisfied also by receiving an individual nondischarge permit from the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0217(d).  An owner must either obtain certification under these Rules or meet DEM requirements for an individual nondischarge permit.  The review process of the District does not abrogate the responsibilities of the owner to either obtain a certification or to meet DEM requirements for an individual nondischarge permit.
