increased hopes that an odor problem at Farmers Dairies 7321 North Loop drive where feed lots have been giving off a horrible stench may be on its way to a but they are wary of any quick action after suffering for years John Navar speaking for Hot Wells Cattle Co on the Farmers Dairies property yesterday told a hearings board of the Texas Water Control Board that his firm is now carting away animal wastes six days a week and has almost eliminated a stockpile of manure The action on ponding rain water is still to feel the sting of the Water Control Board to which the hearings examiners will make their recommendations Navar said such sludge will be pumped to higher ponds and the old ponding area deepened A problem of overflow in heavy rains that runs the waste into North Loop drive drains to the Mesa Drain and ultimately to the Rio Grande also is yet to be resolved Hearings attorney Watts told Navar that testimony by some 10 area residents on those problems and the problem of flics should suggest to him that action be taken When opening the hearing Watts told Navar that any waste water permit that might be granted still will not absolve him from prior violations The city is currently suing the firm on the odor problem Hearings engineer Don Spraggins sounded a warning note to the old-time rancher when he told the audience that previous waste water permits may have to be changed under new requirements by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Don Burleson of EPA laid out the broad outlines of possible requirements affecting spreads of 3000 acres or more in irrigation return flows The law basically results in most such wastes having to be contained on the owner's property Richard Schaap of Fabens Dairy was disconcerted when he began to understand the requirements Anthony Mayor Adrian Baca and his engineering consultant Gordon Parkhill of Parkhill Smith It Cooper outlined new sewage treatment facilities in asking for a permit that will result in no
