Irrigation Guidelines for Hurricanes, Tropical Storms, and Flood Watches

All farms covered under a permit in North Carolina need to be aware of the regulations you are expected to abide by as a tropical weather system approaches.  Your permit states in Section II.22:

"Land application of waste shall cease within four (4) hours of the time that the National Weather Service issues a Hurricane Warning, Tropical Storm Warning, or a Flood Watch associated with a tropical system including a hurricane, tropical storm, or tropical depression for the county in which the permitted facility is located.  Watches and warnings are posted on the National Weather Service's website located at: www.weather.gov"

You can also call the National Weather Service office that serves our area.  For Lenoir and Greene Counties, it is the office in Newport/Morehead City.  The phone number is 252-223-5737.  

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
