The chlorine level must be at less than 0.1 ppm before release. If required, chlorine can be neutralized with sodium thiosulphate as needed (up to 2 ppm thiosulphate per ppm free chlorine). Promptly following the chlorination holding time, drain the pond(s). Broadcast lime on the top of the remaining sludge. There are 202 ponds to be treated, ranging in .5 acre to 2 acres in size. It is estimated that the contract will take 2-4 months to complete. These ponds are all located on one farm on the North Carolina/Virginia border near Kernersville, NC. Special equipment will be required to broadcast the chlorine. The contractor will supply a supervisor to oversee laborers who will be hired by the farmer. APHIS will compensate the farmer for the cost of labor. Thus, the quoted price should exclude laborer costs and included only costs of supervisor and use of special equipment and materials.
