Agency Priority &3 EPA NPDES Delegated AuthorityBrief Description:



Oklahoma Statutes (2-18.2)

The purpose includes state autonomy. The ODAFF will regulate wastewater discharges from CAFOs and egg

washing, and storm water discharges for forestry silviculture, pesticide application, agricultural

construction activities that disturb more than one acre, and storm water discharges around grain elevators

for the federal government and for the state.

- General permits cover multiple facilities and streamline the permitting process through faster review time

and issuance time, which in turn reduces agency costs and allows the facility to receive a permit within afew weeks as opposed to months for an individual permit. General permits also ensure consistency in permit

conditions for similar facilities.

- Enforce permit compliance with enforcement agreements or fines.

- Negotiate tasks and schedules with facilities for a return to compliance.

- Opportunity to have direct contact with the facility to resolve compliance issues faster.

- ODAFF can prioritize its activities to assist regulated facilities.

- Target enforcement toward significant violators.

- Assist facilities in noncompliance before violations become critical.

- Complaint resolution.

- AEMS develops, coordinates and oversees various environmental policies. Among these is the licensing and

regulating of CAFOs, licensed managed feeding operations, registration of poultry facilities, licensing and

regulating poultry waste applicators, and permitting agricultural compost facilities.

Presently, owners and/or operators of Confined Animal Feed Yard Operations (CAFO) are licensed both at the

federal and state level. Dual licensing and regulation could be eliminated if the Department obtained

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) delegation from the U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency; thus, making the state the sole regulator of these facilities.

123; 2 OS Section 2-18.2; 27A OS 1-3-102; 35:17-4-1; 35:44-1-1.

EPA's August 2011 timeline forecasts that ODAFF will receive the AgPEDES delegation in March 2012.


In 1994, the Oklahoma legislature passed 27A O.S. Section 1-3-102 that directs the Department of

Agriculture to seek this delegation from EPA to administer any and all of the NPDES programs for

agricultural point and non-point source discharges. The creation of the Oklahoma Agriculture PollutantDischarge Elimination System Act passed in House Bill 1467 in 2005. The official ODAFF AgPDES required

delegation application documents were submitted to EPA on June 26, 2007. The official AgPDES rules

35:44-1-1 were approved and became effective on July 25, 2010. Additionally, on June 17, 2009, the

following ODAFF AgPDES delegation documents were sent to EPA: scope of the program, resources and

funding, organization and responsibilities, permitting procedures, compliance program, public

participation storm water, information management, compliance review, compliance inspections, enforcement

evaluation and organizational chart. Subsequently, additional documents have been submitted to the EPA

and ODAFF anxiously awaits comments and approval of delegation.

With the NPDES delegation status, ODAFF would be the agency named to implement and enforce the federal

Clean Water Act for Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) wastewater discharges. ODAFF would

then enforce both EPA's federal standards and Oklahoma's laws and rules for CAFOs. In addition, with the

proposed current and additional personnel , ODAFF-AEMS would be better equipped to enforce the Oklahoma

animal waste regulations and the additional workload of the federal program.

Although directed to conduct only annual inspections, ODAFF feels it is necessary to conduct more

frequent quarterly inspections. This will allow ODAFF to more quickly and properly assess the current

condition of Oklahoma's waters and to formulate an effective, comprehensive plan to protect Oklahoma's

waters from possible animal waste pollution. Storm water construction permits for CAFOs and other

sources will also be issued.

state, or federal mandate, and include the appropriate legal reference and description: (con't)

c. Description of mandate: (con't)


The Oklahoma Statutes require that ODAFF seek NPDES delegation. EPA does not have adequate personnel to

oversee permitting in Oklahoma, and consequently, delegation to Oklahoma would allow a more effective program

to ensure protection of Oklahoma waters from possible animal waste pollution.

Additionally, the 2005 Oklahoma Legislature approved HB 1467 (2 OS Section 20-1 et seq. and 2 OS Section 2A-1

et seq). This is the Oklahoma Agriculture Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Act and the Oklahoma

Agriculture Environmental Permitting Act. Also, during the 2006 Oklahoma legislative session, ODAFF

promulgated administrative rules and statute amendments for the AgPDES program that govern the discharge of

pollutants into waters of the U.S., including dischages from animal feeding and egg washing operations, CAFO

construction sites silviculture (forestry) activities; pesticide application and grain elevators.

Not only is outside contracting with a consulting firm cost-prohibitive, but private sector solutions are not

entirely practical for this program as EPA requires that portions of the NPDES program must be administered

by full-time personnel and EPA selects the regulatory entity.

Discuss how much of this funding request can be provided by user fees and describe the fee levels that should

be charged.

State appropriations are needed to protect Oklahoma's pristine waters and environment from possible

contamination from animals and poultry. However, the regulated industry must show its support in the form of

a willingness to pay a portion of the agency's costs to regulate this program. A fees schedule has been

submitted to EPA (not attached as no approval has been given, to date, by EPA).

Discuss whether or not these services could be provided through vouchers, thus allowing the users maximum

flexibility on choice of provider:

Obtaining NPDES delegation will strengthen the authority and jurisdiction of the ODAFF on agricultural

water quality issues and consolidate the state and federal programs and the program's costs that affect

Oklahoma producers and industries.

By providing regulated facilities state contacts and control, alleviating them of the need to go to EPA inDallas, Texas to have their questions answered.

Agency Priority &4 Feral Hog Management ProgramBrief Description:



Feral hogs are an invasive, non-natural species in Oklahoma whose population has dramatically increased in

the state in recent years. Feral hogs are causing severe damage to agriculture (winter wheat, pecans,

peanuts, corn, milo, pasture, hay, turf, commercial forestry, goat kids, and lambs) by physical damage. Hogs

also pool a serious risk to Oklahoma's pseudorabies free status by carrying the disease which could be

transmitted to Oklahoma's transitional swine industry. Feral hogs also cause damage to lawns and gardens.

The purpose of this funding change is to provide the Wildlife Services Division at ODAFF with funding to

carry out a statewide feral hog control program.

The only additional alternatives are to generate funds through fees or grants. Relying on grants has proven

ineffective.


This cannot be addressed by user fees without placing an undue burden on citizens and producers. Fees in

this area are calculated to recover cost of analysis and overhead. If fees included purchase of new

technology and equipment most users would be unable to afford them. The largest single customer is ODAFF

regulatory services.
