Newlin Dairy Permit Application
Wilbur Newlin received a letter advising him to submit an
application to renew his permit. He has closed the dairy and
only has six steers on the farm and they are on pasture at the
present time. He applied for cost share to close his lagoon. I
submitted a closure plan back in December with an anticipated
closure date for the first of March. The weather is not
cooperating to be able to start when it was planned, but as
soon as the weather breaks he will be starting as soon as
possible. I am sending this letter to advise you that he will be
closing the lagoon and inquiring as to whether you will need
any additional info from him. As part of the closure plan a
nutrient management plan was included and he has more than
enough land to apply the waste from the lagoon. If you need
any more info from him let us know and we will send that to
you.

NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (G.S. 106-549.70).
Any method which, in the professional opinionof the State Veterinarian, would make possible
the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or animal health.
(Written approval by the State Veterinarian must be attached).
Mass Mortality Plan
Mass mortality plans are required for farms covered by an NPDES permit. These plans are
also recommended for all animal operations. This plan outlines farm -specific mortality man-
agement methods to be used for mass mortality. The NCDA&CS Veterinary Division sup-
ports a variety of emergency mortality disposal options; contact the Division for guidance.
• A catastrophic mortality disposal plan is part of the facility's CAWMP and is activated
when numbers of dead animals exceed normal mortality rates as specified by the State
Veterinarian.
• Burial must bedone in accordance with NC General Statutes and NCDA&CS Veterinary
Division regulations and guidance.
• Mass burial sites are subject to additional permit conditions (refer to facility's animal
waste management system permit).
• In the event of imminent threat of a disease emergency, the State Veterinarian may enact
additional temporary procedures or measures for disposal according to G.S. 106-399.4.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Nutrient Management Recommendations table shown below provides an annual summary of the nutrient
management plan developed for this operation. This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and crops
for each year of the plan. Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient
requirements and soil test results. The quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified.
The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity
of other nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other
byproducts are utilized to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management plans may require that the
application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of
this nutrient are detected in a field. In such situations, additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources
may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

The Required Soil Test Values shown in the following table provide a summary of recommended actions that should be taken if soil tests indicate
excessive levels of copper or zinc. Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper
can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can
be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85.
By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample.
Application of lime at recommended rates is necessary to maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production .

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface
water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 1
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and ffies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner
that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit
growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be
considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with
the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is
applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least
50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995,
shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 2
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on
crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant
with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level
between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 3
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
Corn Piedmont
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1
In the Piedmont, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit.
Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high
yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant
populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when
planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at
planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young
plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a
starter and the remaining N behind the planter. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When
including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus
is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor
the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for corn
production.

In the Piedmont, tall fescue can be planted Aug. 20 to Oct. 10 (best) and Feb. 15 to Mar. 20. For
pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 lb/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use certified seed
to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in
mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium
recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for
mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 lb/ac. N to
pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb. 1 to Mar. 20 and
Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305
Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or
consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

Soybeans: Piedmont
The suggested planting date for soybeans in the Piedmont is April 25-May 25. Review the NCSU Official
Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the
characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row
foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the
seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth
control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can be applied at planting.
Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However,
applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor.
Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the
soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for profitable soybean production.

Lagoon sludge often contains high concentrations of zinc and copper. High levels of these metals in soils can adversely affect plant growth. The
following table provides a conservative (maximum potential) estimate for increase in soil index values.* Due to inherit variability of waste and soil
sampling, it is recommended that conservative soil target levels be set for copper (e.g. Cu-I < 700-1000) and zinc (e.g. Zn-I < 300 for land where
peanuts may be grown; for other cropland Zn-I < 700-1000). Alternative application sites should be selected if the following table indicates that
concentrations of these metals may approach excessive levels. For maximum copper and zinc soil index limits, see the NRCS Nutrient Management
Standard (Code 590).

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Nutrient Management Recommendations table shown below provides an annual summary of the nutrient
management plan developed for this operation. This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and crops
for each year of the plan. Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient
requirements and soil test results. The quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified.
The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity
of other nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other
byproducts are utilized to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management plans may require that the
application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of
this nutrient are detected in a field. In such situations, additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources
may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

The Required Soil Test Values shown in the following table provide a summary of recommended actions that should be taken if soil tests indicate
excessive levels of copper or zinc. Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper
can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can
be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85.
By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample.
Application of lime at recommended rates is necessary to maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production .

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface
water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 1
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner
that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit
growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be
considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with
the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is
applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least
50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,1995,
shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 2
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on
crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant
with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level
between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/12/2019 Specification Page 3
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
Corn Piedmont
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1
In the Piedmont, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit.
Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high
yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant
populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when
planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at
planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young
plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a
starter and the remaining N behind the planter. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When
including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus
is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor
the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for corn
production.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 10, 11
Fescue: Piedmont
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Piedmont, tall fescue can be planted Aug. 20 to Oct. 10 (best) and Feb. 15 to Mar. 20. For
pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 lb/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use certified seed
to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in
mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium
recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for
mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 lb/ac. N to
pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb. 1 to Mar. 20 and
Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305
Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or
consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The following crop note applies to field(s): 8, 9
Soybeans: Piedmont
The suggested planting date for soybeans in the Piedmont is April 25-May 25. Review the NCSU Official
Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the
characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row
foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the
seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth
control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can be applied at planting.
Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However,
applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor.
Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the
soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for profitable soybean production.

Lagoon sludge often contains high concentrations of zinc and copper. High levels of these metals in soils can adversely affect plant growth. The
following table provides a conservative (maximum potential) estimate for increase in soil index values.* Due to inherit variability of waste and soil
sampling, it is recommended that conservative soil target levels be set for copper (e.g. Cu-I < 700-1000) and zinc (e.g. Zn-I < 300 for land where
peanuts may be grown; for other cropland Zn-I < 700-1000). Alternative application sites should be selected if the following table indicates that
concentrations of these metals may approach excessive levels. For maximum copper and zinc soil index limits, see the NRCS Nutrient Management
Standard (Code 590).
