James -
Just wanted to check in on the status of the Paul Payne Store Rd CAFO for which you had said DENR was
waiting for waste analysis results.
I still wanted to clarify, though, with the material determined to be dry poultry litter, as to what content analysis
results might do change this situation, given that the material sat uncovered and unapplied for more than 15
days.
I'm getting up with Ed Williams about visiting a site and discussing directly with DENR what we can try to spot
in the air so as to best utilize our flights.
Let me know if you have any questions, and happy holidays!
Cheers,
Sam Perkins

We will forward a copy of the waste analysis results to you after we receive them.
As Ed has suggested in his response dated Thursday, November 29, 2012, we are very much interested in
participating and assisting with in any interests you may have toward "communicating more on the issue
through our agriculture work group within the EO/DWQ collaborative" and/or "touring a chicken farm and a

What comprises the waste analysis results? A sample of what was sitting in the pile? I know there are other
requirements for land application but still thought these piles couldn't sit idle for 15+ days. I'm sure none of
these sites have many if any prior complaints given their recent installation and their isolation, but we'll be -up in
a plane regularly for a while, so if you have tips for identifying problems, I am all ears.
Thank you For getting back so quickly and being on top of this?

I wanted to follow up on the Paul Payne Store Rd site with the storage piles in the field. After
inspections at other sites, other piles were clean sawdust, but the material at the Paul Payne Store

For wood waste, 1 understand there might not be, but for the poultry litter, the specific regulation is in
Tit1el5 NCAC 2T .1403(2)(B), and it states "...animal waste is not stockpiled uncovered for greater
than 15 days." Shouldn't that apply?

James -
Thank you for the detailed updates on these issues. With regard to
the Alan Smith and Payne Dairy sites, those both had waste piles
that were uncovered for more than two weeks, which I had
understood to be something to report to DWQ. Without something
even as simple as a tarp, these lie exposed and vulnerable to runoff
when rain moves through, possibly causing immense nutrient,
bacteria and arsenic loading to local streams, rivers and lakes. If
there is a different way we should be looking for waste violations,
let me know.
Cheers!

Subject: CAFOs with uncovered waste
Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/16/12 and I 1/1/12) at 1,000
feet and identified four sites with uncovered waste
piles that persisted through the 16-day span. We are
concerned about nutrients, bacteria and, in the case
of poultry, arsenic running off into streams and
eventually into Lake Hickory and Lookout Shoals
Lake.
I have created a map with the four sites I would first
like to report.
Also attached are pictures, which I have shrunk to
30% of their original size and 10% of their original
file size. Information (date/location) is in the picture
file name as well as in the description associated
with the pin on the map. Please let me know if any
additional pictures and information are necessary.

know your thoughts on this as well as if there are
any additional questions.

results might do change this situation, given that the material sat uncovered and unapplied for more than 15
days.
I'm getting up with Ed Williams about visiting a site and discussing directly with DENR what we can try to spot
in the air so as to best utilize our flights.
Let me know if you have any questions, and happy holidays!
Cheers,

Subject: CAFOs with uncovered waste
Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/16/12 and l l/1/12) at 1,000
feet and identified four sites with uncovered waste
piles that persisted through the 16-day span. We are
concerned about nutrients, bacteria and, in the case
of poultry, arsenic running off into streams and
eventually into Lake Hickory and Lookout Shoals
Lake.
I have created a map with the four sites I would first
like to report.

Also attached are pictures, which I have shrunk to
30% of their original size and i 0% of their original
file size. Information (date/location) is in the picture
file name as well as in the description associated
with the pin on the map. Please let me know if any
additional pictures and information are necessary.

We will be continuing to investigate these sites and
others. Please feel free to pass this along. Let me
know your thoughts on this as well as if there are
any additional questions.

Sam -
This effort sounds promising and I think at a minimum we can have some productive discussions but hopefully actually
tour a facility or two (dairy and poultry). This would lead to a greater understanding of the farming industry and also give
you a better ability to interpret what you see from the aerial view (e.g., covered silage not covered manure is what you
are seeing in many of the dairy photos on your website).
Regarding onsite tours, we'd made this suggestion to the newer poultry facility we inspected as part of your complaint
referral. The owner seemed open to the idea but the issue with touring poultry sites is that these are much more tied to
major corporate contracts and therein, have stricter standards for visitors for various reasons, animal health being the
primary. The dairy farms are typically family owned in our region.
I'd suggest we proceed by allowing us, DWQ, to have some internal discussions including thinking through the site tour
aspect. Touring would obviously require a cooperating farmer. I feel the end goal is to share information to maximize all
our efforts for protecting water quality, whether it be animal waste or identifying sediment runoff sites.

Subject: CAFOs with uncovered
waste
Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/ 16/ 12 and
11/1/12) at 1,000 feet and identified
four sites with uncovered waste piles
that persisted through the 16-day
span. We are concerned about
nutrients, bacteria and, in the case of
poultry, arsenic running off into
streams and eventually into Lake
Hickory and Lookout Shoals Lake.
I have created a map with the four
sites I would first like to report.
Also attached are pictures, which I
have shrunk to 30% of their original
size and 10% of their original file
size. Information (date/location) is in
the picture file name as well as in the
description associated with the pin
on the map. Please let me know if
any additional pictures and
information are necessary.

We will forward a copy of the waste analysis results to you after we receive them.
As Ed has suggested in his response dated Thursday, November 29, 2012, we are very much interested in
participating and assisting with in any interests you may have toward "communicating more on the issue
through our agriculture work group within the EO/DWQ collaborative" and/or "touring a chicken farm and a

What comprises the waste analysis results? A sample of what was sitting in the pile? I know there are other
requirements for land application but still thought these piles couldn't sit idle for 15+ days. I'm sure none of these sites
have many if any prior complaints given their recent installation and their isolation, but we'll be up in a plane regularly
for a while, so if you have tips for identifying problems, I am all ears.

I wanted to follow up on the Paul Payne Store Rd site with the storage piles in the field. After
inspections at other sites, other piles were clean sawdust, but the material at the Paul Payne Store Rd

Thank you for -the detailed updates on these issues. With regard to the
Alan Smith and Payne Dairy sites, those both had waste piles that were
uncovered for more than two weeks, which I had understood to be
something to report to DWQ. Without something even as simple as a
tarp, these lie exposed and vulnerable to runoff when rain moves
through, possibly causing immense nutrient, bacteria and arsenic

loading to local streams, rivers and lakes. If there is a different way we
should be looking for waste violations, let me know.

Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/16/12 and 11/1/12) at 1,000 feet and
identified four sites with uncovered waste piles that persisted
through the 16-day span. We are concerned about nutrients,
bacteria and, in the case of poultry, arsenic running off into
4

streams and eventually into Lake Hickory and Lookout Shoals
Lake.
I have created a map with the four sites I would first like to report.
Also attached are pictures, which I have shrunk to 30% of their
original size and 10% of their original file size. Information
(date/location) is in the picture file name as well as in the
description associated with the pin on the map. Please let me know

I wanted to follow up on the Paul Payne Store Rd site with the storage piles in the field. After inspections at other sites,
other piles were clean sawdust, but the material at the Paul Payne Store Rd site in the fields was much darker; definitely
not clean sawdust.

Ed/La ndon/James/Andrew,
Just wanted to say thanks for your quick and professional response to these complaints. Thanks especially for your offer
to take them to a farm (of course we'll need a farmer to help us out there). As people become more aware of the
poultry operations in that part of the state, we will likely get more complaints. So a little education now about what to
look for, and when to call us with complaints, could go a long way.

Hi Sam and Rick,'
Today, Landon Davidson and I visited the chicken farm in question at the site off of Grace Chapel Road in Caldwell
County. According to your report there was chicken litter on site that has been stored uncovered for more than 15 days.
We found no uncovered chicken litter. The chicken litter was being properly stored under a covered shelter (see
attached photos). The pile that you marked during the aerial survey was saw dust that is used for bedding and
composting. There are no rules that require it to be covered.
The chicken farm in question is deemed permitted and owned by a Mr. Steve Anderson. It appears to a very clean and
environmentally friendly facility. The owner just purchased and is utilizing a high-tech chicken composter. Dead
chickens go in, compost comes out. Mr. Anderson also runs beef cattle on this farm and has implemented cattle
exclusion fencing and other BMP's to protect the streams on his property from damage.
Thanks for your concern and for performing the flyovers. Perhaps we can communicate more on the issue through our
agriculture work group within the EO/DWQ collaborative. If it's beneficial, maybe we can tour a chicken farm and a
dairy to look at common practices and how regulations might or might not apply.

Thank you for the detailed updates on these issues. With regard to the Alan Smith and Payne Dairy
sites, those both had waste piles that were uncovered for more than two weeks, which I had understood
to be something to report to DWQ. Without something even as simple as a tarp, these lie exposed and
vulnerable to runoff when rain moves through, possibly causing immense nutrient, bacteria and arsenic
loading to local streams, rivers and takes. If there is a different way we should be looking for waste
violations, let me know.

Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/ 16/12 and 11 / l /12) at 1,000 feet and identified four sites
with uncovered waste piles that persisted through the 16-day span. We are
concerned about nutrients, bacteria and, in the case of poultry, arsenic running off
into streams and eventually into Lake Hickory and Lookout Shoals Lake.

I have created a map with the four sites I would first like to report. N
.Also attached are pictures, which I have shrunk to 30% of their original size and
10% of their original file size. Information (date/location) is in the picture file
name as well as in the description associated with the pin on the map. Please Iet
me know if any additional pictures and information are necessary.

For wood waste, I understand there might not be, but for the poultry litter, the specific regulation is in Title15 NCAC 2T
.1403(2)(B), and it states "...animal waste is not stockpiled uncovered for greater than 15 days." Shouldn't that apply?

Subject: CAFOs with uncovered waste
Mr. Pitner-
We took two flights (10/16/12 and I I I1112) at 1,000 feet and identified four sites with uncovered waste piles
that persisted through the 16-day span. We are concerned about nutrients, bacteria and, in the case of poultry,
arsenic running off into streams and eventually into Lake Hickory and Lookout Shoals Lake.
I have created a map with the four sites I would first like to report.
Also attached are pictures, which I have shrunk to 30% of their original size and 10% of their original file size.
Information (date/location) is in the picture file name as well as in the description associated with the pin on the
map. Please let me know if any additional pictures and information are necessary.

Landon,
I think that the site on Grace Chapel Road actually falls in Caldwell County rather than Alexander, so that
makes it ARO territory. For what it's worth, James' first take assessment via the photos of the light colored pile
of material near the square -roofed building (west side of the facility on the aerial via Google maps) is that it
may be sawdust rather than poultry litter as litter stockpiles tend to have a more uneven and darker color to
them. Give me a call if you'd like more background and if you follow-up and respond please cc me.

Hey James,
I haven't heard back yet on this one, but expect to at some point and will forward any info they pass along.
Essentially, they did flyovers 16 days apart in the Catawba watershed and were looking for CAFO and other
issues of potential concern. Per my brief phone discussion with him, it sounds like they mostly saw poultry
litter stockpiles that they intend to report, but we'll see what comes along. I'll be in Charlotte with Joju Sunday -
Wednesday, but will call to discuss when/if this develops further.

Good to talk to you today, and I'm sure I'll be in touch with you and James Biel quite a bit as we investigate
CAFOs.
I've got to dash out to the lake and have not finished compiled everything from our CAFO flight yesterday;
trying to arrange side -by -sides and to compress pictures that are a few MBs each. I think I'll get things in to you
later today, but I know it's end of the day Friday and likely nothing will happen until next week.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to
prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in
the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer
required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. You must
have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content as close to the
time of application as practical and at least within 60 days of the date of
application before each application cycle. Soil nutrients in all fields where
waste will be applied must be analyzed at least annually so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic,yields of the crop to be grown. Soil
test and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste
application records for all other waste shall be'maintained for five (5) years.

Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in
order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is
applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Lime must be applied to application fields as
recommended by soil test to maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates,
leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water
holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5
tons per acre per year. With special precautions, (see Required
Specification No. 4) waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10
tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters, which is a violation of the North Carolina Division of
Water Quality (NCDWQ) .0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste should also
be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce
the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing
crop. Otherwise apply waste no.earlier than 30 days prior to
planting a crop or prior to forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or
otherwise incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where waste is
applied shall be monitored and alternative application fields shall be
used when these metals approach excess levels.
2

This plan is .based on waste application by irrigation, for this is the manner in
which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to alter the method(s)
of application in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for
various waste application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical
nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual acreage
requirements shall be based on waste analysis reports from storage structures in
your waste management system. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
Solid Waste Storage Structures Statement included at the back of this WUP.
Your (storage pond) is designed for 180 darts of temporary storage and the
temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6 mo. If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the volume of waste
being stored in your structure be higher than the maximum storage marker except
in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for
assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an -operator in charge of an animal
waste management system shall operate the waste management system, which is
covered by this waste utilization plan. The North Carolina Water Quality
Commission will provide training and certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality
Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply -the waste in a timely manner.
Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA-NRCS FOTG
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
,storage structure(s).
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied
while meeting the N requirements. In the future,
regulations may require farmers in some parts of North
Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
k

The irrigation application rate should•not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in tables
1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen
shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.

WASTE APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the Waste Application -Tables that follow are available
for waste application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to
apply waste to'each of these fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen
(N) requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of
the soil and assuming no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably.applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Smith Farms is a family farm. They currently milk 250 head of
Holstein milk cows. All waste solids from the lot are scraped and stacked
into a compost shed where it goes through 2-4 heats. After each heat it is
turned over and allowed to go through another heat. If the waste has too
much water -in it, sawdust is added. This allows the product to be stacked.
After the waste has been composted it is transferred to a separate shed
where it is stacked once again for storage. During this storage the waste
will go through yet another heat.
Both of these buildings are roofed. The run-off from these buildings
is diverted and kept clean. They also have drainage systems that pump any
leachate back into the waste storage ponds. Generally there is very little
leachate due to the addition of dry sawdust to the product.
The product is then mixed to produce different bagged products, whi
will be sold as "Daddy Pete's" composted cow manure and various potting
mixes. This is a permitted operation that has been operating for 5 years.
The wastewater from the barn and the lot run-off are collected in a
waste storage pond. This liquid waste is irrigated, using a traveling gun
and reel, onto fields 'adjacent to the operation. This wastewater will have
very low nitrogen content due to the solids being eliminated from the pond.
NOTE: Make a copy of this page and complete the information for each storage
structure in the -planned system. Delete this note before giving the
waste Utilization Plan to the Landowner or operator.

FIELD OFFICE INSTRUCTIONS
(NOTE TO FIELD OFFICE PERSONNEL PREPARING THIS PLAN:
The following items and the Required Specifications must be addressed in the Waste
Utilization Plan in order for the plan to meet the minimum requirements of the .0200
rules and NRCS standards. All of these concerns may not be applicable for a given
operation. Additional concerns may have to be addressed at certain operations. These
items express the minimum requirements. Where necessary, the planner/designer is to
elaborate on these concerns or add others as applicable. Comments within these items
that are in parenthesis, are underlined, and are bold typed are for Field Office reference
only and are not to be included in the landowner's copy of the plan. This note is also
provided only for Field Office reference and is not to be included in the landowner's copy
of the plan.
1. The waste utilization plan will include the entire animal waste generated on the farm.
2. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must be maintained below the
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event
in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. (The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has a notarized long term 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 waste he/she shall iDrovide NRCS with a copy of a
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application
for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
utilization or available land).
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DWQ. See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard
392 - Riparian Forest BuNr. I
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists which may
cause a danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When an waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When 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" in the Technical Reference - Environment Me for uidance.
19

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is being surface
applied. Surface broadcast solids -or sluffies may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquid holding structure. Where
crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot assimilate the
nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to occur. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients 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. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application at lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more than 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
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 faun shall be at least 50 feet from any
residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal). Animal waste (other than swine waste from facilities sited
on or after October 1, 1995,) shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 392 - Riparian Forest Buffer)
20

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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.
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
wetlands provided a "technical specialist" has approved them as a land application
site. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways, which discharge
directly into watercourses. If animal waste is to be applied on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and 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/holding pond embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special
vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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/holding pond areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/holding pond 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 an "approved 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.
21

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanent 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.
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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. Soil
pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production.and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) 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 NC regulations. North
Carolina General Statute 106-403 requires that dead animals be disposed of within 24
hours in a manner approved by the state veterinarian.

Solid Waste Storage
2/4/2000
Alan Smith
Smith Farms
Solid Waste produced
219,354.83 cu.ft. / year
219,354.83 cu.ft. / 365days = 601cu.ft./day
Structure #1 145ft. X 48ft. X 4ft. = 26,880 cu.ft.
Structure 7#2 24ft, X 16ft. X 120ft. = 40,080 cu.ft.
This structure uses an overhead conveyor to transfer the composted material from
the rear of the structure to the front. The composted material on the conveyor can
be deposited anywhere along the conveyor in order to rotate the stock. The
deposited compost can be stacked 16ft. high and it spreads out 24ft. at floor level.
Using the geometric formula for a triangle x the length of the building the storage
equals 40,080 cu.ft.
The run-off from both structures is diverted away from the solids and kept clean.
When the waste is scraped from the lot it is stored in an area that allows the excess
moisture to drain into a drop box and return to the waste storage pond. This area
is 20ft. X 40ft. and can be stacked an average of 4ft. allowing 3200 cu.ft. of extra
storage.
This composted material is marketed as "Daddy Pete's" and is continuously being
bagged for wholesale shipments.
"Daddy Pete's" is a permitted operation.
Total storage is 76,160 cu.ft. / 601 cu.ft. per day = 126.7 days storage

Alan Smith Dairy Farm
Cattle Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Alexander County
Dear Alan Smith:
On June 11, 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your application received on January 22, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Alan
Smith, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWCO20004 which expires October 1, 2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Alan Smith Dairy Farm, located in Alexander County, with an animal capacity
of no greater than an annual average of 400 Dairy cattle and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC,
you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.

The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation. of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Mooresville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Water Quality Staff may be reached at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact J.R. Joshi at [phone].
Sincerely,
v

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Alan Smith Dairy Farm
Facility Number 2-4
Alexander County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Rocky Durham on 4/12/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Rocky Durham the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Rocky Durham, at 919 North Main Street,
Mooresville, NC 28115, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact Rocky Durham at (704)'663-1699. If within 90 days you are
unable to provide Rocky Durham with the information you are automatically required
to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within
180 days of receipt of this letter.

Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Category 2:
Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving ;animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by'
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also -sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or pennitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Dear Sonya Avant:
The Alexander SWCD has been working with Alan Smith on his Wettable Acres Determination.
There have been several factors that have caused a delay in finishing this determination. Mr. Smith had a
contract with our office on an agitator/pump for his waste holding pond. He decided to repay this contract
and cancel the agreement. In January of this year a new contract was written for a new gun and reel for his
irrigation system. The gun and reel was purchased in April and the contract was finalized in May. The
NRCS engineer that is working on Mr. Smith's Wettable Acre Determination needed the specifications
from this new gun and reel to calculate the wetted area. He has also been spending a lot of time down east
working with various Districts on the flood evaluations. Mr. Smith also made a management change and is
now composting all solid wastes from his herd. The solids used to be pushed into the waste holding pond
and then separated for composting. Now all solids are kept out of the waste holding pond. This change
drastically reduced the amount of nutrients going into the waste holding pond. New sample data needed to
be obtained from the wastewater that is now irrigated on the cropland. All the information is now in the
Engineers office and he should have the Determination completed in a couple of days.
The management on this farm is excellent. Managing the waste generated on this farm is taken
seriously and I can assure you that nutrients are applied in agronomic rates. The irrigation field currently
contains 90.46 total acres with another 52.04 acres to be added this summer. The wastewater generated on
this farm produces around 1,653 lbs. PAN. Far less than 75% of the land is now needed to apply the
nutrients produced. The farm was flagged for a determination before these management changes took
place. As soon as I receive the determination from the Engineer I will give you a call. If you need further
information give me a call.
Sincerely, D

Re: Notice of Violation
Dear Mr. Gleason:
Upon receipt of your letter dated October 22, 2001 the following action has been taken
in regards to the application records and freeboard level.
1. Application records have been entered and properly recorded to record book.
2. We now record holding pond freeboard levels in two places. (One on
clipboard and one directly into records book.) Therefore not taking a chance
of misplacing the one sheet (on clipboard). The holding pond is viewed
everyday by us. Because of water being recycled to be used in manure
separation. We are always very attentive to the holding pond level.
I hope this information is satisfactory. If you have any other questions please call.
Sincerely,
Alan Smith

MaALIE 9EGIUL aFFRE
November 21, 2000
This letter is to detail my investigation of a liquid animal waste spi
that occurred at the Alan Smith Farm on 11 /7100.
On 11/7100 at 4:30pm our office received a call from Melvin. York,
manager of AIa6 Smith-Far.m. Dan' McClure of. IVRCS took the,cafl.., Mr.
York -stated: that;"an 'irrigation ,riser.- had�:broken,: allowingliquid animal
Waste to enter Third,Creek. :He;also stated, that the spill was rrminimal
and that it 11ad, been contained in"a matter of.rni.nutes. _.Dan went to the
farm that evening to evaluate 'the environmental damage. Upon arrival
he was taken to the spill site and concluded that the spill was in fact
minimal and that action had been taken to contain the waste that was on
the ground. He also went downstream approximately 1500 feet, to the
bridge on Smith Farm Road and concluded that there were no visible
signs of animal waste in the stream.
On 11/8/00 at 9:00am I called your office and left you a message
pertaining to the spill and that I would be going to the farm to evaluate
the spill further. Dan .McClure also accompanied me to the farm. Upon
arrival we were met by Melvin York and traveled to the spill site. First,
we went to the gun and reel. Melvin showed us where the gun had just
started 'to spray liquid .waste when it had been shut down. This was
evident by the amount of,- waste: on- the ground:: The gun had sprayed
waste over. a small; area.only 50�feet'from'the gun..lA(heri this,.gun .is at

riser had a horizontal split 1 inch by 6 inches wide. This had caused the
waste to spray over a large area instead of pouring straight into the
creek. However, it was evident that a small stream had reached the
stream. It was also evident that this flow was slow moving due to the
lack of organic matter being washed into the stream. There were no
visible signs of animal waste residue on the rocks in the stream or on
the opposite bank. The area that had been sprayed had been scraped
back away from the streambank and spread across the field.
In order to keep this from happening again, we will be inspecting
all the risers in the irrigation fields to look for visible signs of stress. We
are also looking at putting shut-off valves at strategic points in the
irrigation lines. This will allow most of the system to be shut down during
irrigation. This will also allow closer examination during irrigation.
Again, we have determined that this animal waste spill was
minimal and that no environmental damage occurred. If you have any
further questions you can reach me at the Alexander SWCD office.

This is a response to your request for a written statement of the events that
happened on Nov, 7. It was stated in your letter of Nov. 9 that the discharge had occurred
due to an obstructed irrigation nozzle, this is not correct. The discharge happened when a
system hydrant aquired a crack in the side.of it. Please note the following events of that
day.
1) 4:00 pm went to pump - hooked up pipe from pump to system
2) Started pump and primed - this usually takes 4 to 5 minutes. After prime
pump takes approximately 6-8 minutes to fill system lines.
3) During time of filling the lines the reel or reels are started and observed for
proper pressure and spray pattern.
4) At that time we then returned to pump, to set pressure, then proceeded to
check all of the system.
5) In checking the system we found a crack in hydrant which was causing a spray
of liquid. Therefore we went to the pump, shut it off and opened the valve to
drain system back into the waF :e storage pond.
6) We then had a skid -loader to pile a scoop of dirt to stop the small amount of
run-off
7) At 4:25 pm we placed a call to Dan McClure in the Taylorsville SWCD
office.We informed him of the situation and asked that he call your office.
Dan came by around 5:15 to inspect the spill.
8) In the area where the hydrant was cracked the following procedures were
taken: we took a box -blade to skim a small Iayer of dirt which was then
moved with skid loader bucket to area between 2 fields, this amount was
approximately 3 to 4 one yard buckets.
9) Next we called Eddie's Welding to cut off and weld a new hydrant to
the system.
10) We have enclosed a map highlighting the cracked hydrant location along with
a Poloroid Snap Shot of it.
11) We are working with the Alexander SWCD to place a shut off valve in the
system to prevent the complete system from being charged at the same time.
12) All risers are being inspected for corrosion.
I hope this information is helpful in understanding what happened. If you have
any further questions please feel free to contact us at 704-585-2355.

Inactive Animal Waste Management Lagoons
In 1999, the North Carolina General Assembly passed legislation that required the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to locate and evaluate every inactive animal waste lagoon
in the state. Inactive lagoons were defined as those that have not received animal waste for at least one
year. This legislation requires that this inventory be completed and the results reported back to the
General Assembly within the next few months.
DENR has directed that the Division of Soil and Water Conservation and the Division of Water Quality
work together and complete this inventory and evaluation.
Our records indicate that an inactive lagoon may be located on land that you own or on which you have
previously raised animals. Due to this requirement to locate and evaluate all inactive lagoons, staff from
our Divisions will be contacting you to arrange a visit to your site to determine if an inactive lagoon
does in fact exist. If a lagoon is located, our staff is also required to gather information on the condition
of the lagoon and its potential to cause problems to the waters of the state.
We greatly appreciate your assistance in helping us meet this legislative requirement. We will make
every effort to minimize any inconvenience that this effort may cause you and we will complete our
work as quickly as possible.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the staff in our Mooresville Regional Office
at 704/663-1699. Please ask for someone with either our Division of Soil and Water Conservation staff
or our Division of Water Quality staff.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 2-4
Alexander County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRYI, DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

Site Inspection
Alan Smith Dairy, Facility #: 2-4
Alexander County, NC
Dear Mr. Smith:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on
July 20, 1999. It was observed that the buffer area for the stream behind your calf barn
needs to be increased. Also, steps should be taken to curtail the runoff from the calf barn
pushoff ramp.
Please note that during many of Mr. Johnson's inspections he has noted that some
farms are often missing one or more components of the farm plan that should be available
for review. The following items must be available for review by the inspector during the
inspection.
• Certification forms.
• Site Diagram: Fencing, streams, buffer zones, and feed areas must be shown.
• Waste Application records with accompanying waste analysis.
• Maps of acreage and irrigated fields.
• Waste Utilization plan:. Tract/field number , usable/wettable acres (not
necessarily total acreage), list of crops, PAN required, and amount of waste
produced by livestock.
• Waste and Soil analysis info: Must have 3 years of data.
It is suggested that this he maintained in a single folder.
• Emergency Action Plan must be posted.
• Insect, Odor Control, and Mortality Checklists must be completed.
• Certified Operator renewal card.
Failure to have the above components available and complete could result in a
Notice of Violation or other enforcement actions. Also remember that waste applications
should be made during the time the crop can utilize the nutrients in the waste. In general
waste should be applied no earlier than 30 days prior to planting.

Alan Smith Dairy, Facility #: 2-4
Alexander County, NC
Dear Mr. Smith:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this office has been asked on several occasions about the
appropriate time and proper method to take soil and waste samples. Also, during his
inspections, he has noticed that while the storage capacity may be adequate in the
storage pond/lagoon, in some cases it was not at the level set forth in the waste
utilization plan. Mr. Johnson has also noted that some animal operations using
hay/pasture systems 'do not appear to be properly managing the hay crop in the waste
application fields. This letter is to highlight some concerns and provide some
general guidance for the animal facilities regarding the management of the storage
pond/lagoon and waste application fields. For more specific/detailed information,
please contact your technical specialist or your local agricultural extension service.
Be advised that should a farm be found violating its farm plan and/or have an
unpermitted discharge, besides facing civil penalties, the facility could be required to
apply for an individual permit. Currently, most farms are operating under a general
permit.
Waste applications
Just as you manage the animals at your facility, proper management of the
waste (lagoon/storage pond level) is important. The waste must be pumped from the
ponds at the correct time and provide for maximum utilization of the nutrients by the
crop. Remember, waste application rates in your farm plan are based on agronomic
principles, and assumes the waste will be applied when the nutrients are required
(e.g., applying waste to corn at tasseling or bermuda grass in November is of little
use for the uptake of nitrogen). Also, the established application rate assumes that
the previous crop has been removed from the field.

Grass and small grain crops grown for hay should be harvested in a timely manner. To
maximize nutrient uptake, as indicated in the waste utilization plan, and for highest quality, the
crop should be harvested at early boot stage (generally every 4 to 5 weeks). Small grain for
silage can be -harvested in the soft dough stage when direct cut. Contact your agricultural
extension agent or technical specialist for proper guidance.
General Recommendations ford open (Ni AW_ ication for CoMMon Crop
• Small Grains: One-third (1/3) N at planting and remainder in late February or early
March.
• Corn/Sorghum: For facilities that pump and haul, N should be applied prior to planting.
For those facilities that irrigate, a split application with half at planting and the remainder
when the corn is 18 inches high.
• Fescue/Orchardgrass: Apply one-half (1/2) of the N in mid -February to March and one-
half (1/2) in mid -August to September.
• Bermuda grass: Establishing: 30 to 40 lbs N/ac at planting and 30 to 60 lbs N/ac when
runners appear (6 -8 wk. after planting). Maintaining: 50 to 60 lbs N/ac in April and the
remainder of the recommended amount in equal increments in June and July or after each
cutting.
Finally, there have been instances where the amount of waste pumped (as shown in the
waste application records) from the lagoon/storage pond does not appear to agree with the
amount of waste produced by the animals. One would expect on an annual basis that the amount
pumped would be approximately equal to the amount being produced. For example, if a dairy is
generating 453,000 gal/yr in waste, then approximately 453,000 gallons of waste should be
accounted for in the waste application records over a year. However, there may be some
difference due to how low the storage pond was pumped, the number of cows being held in the
facility, or the amount of rainfall.
Soil analysis (FREE)
Fifteen to twenty (15 to 20) soil samples per field (20 acres or less) is desirable. The
samples should be thoroughly mixed and sent in as one sample. Each sample should be pulled 4
inches deep for pastures and no -till systems and 8 inches deep for conventional tillage systems.
Taking samples during the fall is advisable. The state lab is not as busy at that time and
can provide a more timely turn around with the results. This is also a good time to apply lime if
recommended by the soil test. When liming is necessary, it is important that it be applied as
suggested. Maintaining proper soil pH is as important (if not more so) than fertilizing to
maximize crop production.

r
Page 3
Waste_samples/analysis ($4/sample)
The state lab now has the capability to conduct analyses and provide the results within
two working days via the internet. Through the US Postal service allow seven days. Take
samples in a timely manner such that waste application rates can be based on the most recent
sample results.
Six to eight (6 to 8) samples should be taken around the edge of the lagoon/storage pond,
approximately 6 feet from the edge and 12 inches below the surface. These can be mixed to
make one sample. The sample should be refrigerated if it is no going to be shipped the same
day. Always mail waste samples in plastic containers.
For farmers who do not have to agitate the lagoon/storage pond prior to application, it is
strongly suggested that waste samples be taken prior to waste application. This will prevent the
producer from having to go back and complete the waste application record at a later date.
For farmers who apply waste to hay fields and pastures, it is strongly suggested that
waste samples be taken quarterly if the waste is applied anytime during the growing season.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson
or me at [phone].

Dear Mr. Smith:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on March
13, I998. A Notice of Violation (NOV) is being issued for the leachate runoff from
stockpiled manure next to the composting facility. It was noted that enough runoff had
occurred to cause damage to the crop in the adjacent field. Mr. Johnson also observed that
silage Ieachate and other surface water runoff from the rear of the facility had also caused
harm to the crop in another area of the field.
It is requested that you submit a written response to this office by April 15, 1998
indicating the actions taken to correct the noted problems. Please address your response to
Mr. Johnson. A technical specialist must be contacted concerning any change in the waste
management system.
Be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking
enforcement actions for this or any other violation. If you have any questions concerning this
matter, please do not hesitate to contact either D. Rex Gleason, Water Quality Regional
supervisor, or Mr. Johnson at [phone],

Subject: Certification/Notice of Violations
Alan Smith Dairy, Facility #: 2-4
Alexander County, NC
Dear Mr. Smith:
The deadline for the certified waste management plan to be implemented is December 31, 1997,
and there will be no extension of the deadline. With this in mind, this letter will touch on some of the
general components and issues that are of concern during an inspection.
As a certified, or soon to be certified, farm your files at a minimum must contain the following
information, and need to be available for review during the inspection:
Certification forms
Site diagram - showing fencing, streams, buffer zones
Waste application records/forms
Maps of acreage and irrigated fields
Waste utilization plan
Waste and soil analysis records
Emergency action plan and mortality & odor control checklist
Regarding waste application records, all information should be recorded. This includes (but is
not limited to) the field used, total minutes waste was applied (if required), the amount of waste irrigated/
hauled, the amount of nitrogen applied and the crop nitrogen balance. The crops and fields that are being
utilized for waste application must be specified in the certified waste management plan. For those
facilities that grow hay, the date when the hay is harvested should be recorded. If you feel the plan does
not allow you the flexibility you need, contact a technical specialist to have the farm plan modified.
For Iagoons/storage ponds, remember that a freeboard of 12 inches plus an additional 5 - 9
inches (depending on location) for a 25 year/24 hour rain event must be maintained from the top of the
storage pond/lagoon. If there is an emergency spillway/pipe, then the level must be maintained to
compensate for a 25 yr/24 hr storm. A pumping marker must also be installed. This may be a pipe or
other structure that is already in the lagoon. Whatever the marker is, it must be prominently Identified.

The question often comes up as to what warrants a Notice of Violation (NOV). An NOV may
be issued for the following instances, among others:
a) inadequate freeboard,
b) inadequate land for waste application,
c) application on an unapproved crop/acreage,
d) discharge of waste from lagoon/facility,
e) excessive vegetation on the sideslopes of a lagoon/pond, or
f) other minor deficiencies.
Examples of a deficiency would be the waste or soil analysis forms not being up to date or the
application records not being filled out properly.
Please note, failure to submit the certification form by December 31, 1997, does not exclude you
from the responsibility of maintaining your storage pond/lagoon levels and waste application records.
Also, please be advised that North Carolina General Statutes provide for penalties of up to $10,000 per
day per violation as well as criminal penalties for violations of state environmental laws and regulations.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Alan Johnson or me
at [phone].

Alexander County HOORESVILE iiEOWAL OFFICE
Senate Bill I2I7, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 or more swine,-100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an OIC.
A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving
cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain
a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management'system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and
returned by December 31, 1996.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919/733-0026.

Dear Alan Smith:
On April 28, 2003, ,the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Cattle Waste Operation General
Permit AWG200000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
1n accordance with your application received on January 22, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Alan
Smith, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWCO20004 which expired on April 30, 2003.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Alan Smith Dairy Farm, located in Alexander County, with an animal capacity
of no greater than an annual average of 400 Dairy cattle and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC, you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
If your.Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (Iocal, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current MRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility. �w

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to
prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in
the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer
required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. You must
have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content as close to the
time of application as practical and at least within 60 days of the date of
application before each application cycle. Soil nutrients.in all fields where
waste will be applied must be analyzed at least annually so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of 'the crop to be grown. Soil
test and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste
application records for all other waste shall be.maintained for five (5) years.
1

Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan
order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it
applied in an environmentally safe manner:
in
is
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Lime must be applied to application fields as
recommended by soil test to maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates,
leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water
holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5
tons per acre per year. With special precautions, (see Required
Specification No. 4) waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10
tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters, which is a violation of the North Carolina Division of
Water Quality (NCDWQ) .0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste should also
be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce
the potential for pollution, -the waste should be applied to a growing
crop. Otherwise apply waste no earlier than 30 days prior to
planting a crop or prior to forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or
otherwise incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where waste is
applied shall be monitored and alternative application fields shall be
used when these metals approach excess levels.

This plan is based on waste application by.irrigation,for this is the manner in
which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to alter the method(s)
of application in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for
various waste application methods are -not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical
nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual acreage
requirements shall be based on.waste analysis reports from storage structures in
your waste management system. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
Solid waste Storage Structures Statement included at the back of this WUP.
Your (storage pond) is designed for 180 d� ays of temporary storage and the
temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6 mo. If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the volume of waste
being stored in your structure be higher than the maximum storage marker except
in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for
assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of an animal
waste management system shall operate the waste management system, which is
covered by this waste utilization plan. The North Carolina Water Quality
Commission will provide training and certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality
Commission.

1,507,426 gallons or 55.51 acre -inches.
PAN per year from liquid waste
+ 29,240 lbs. PAN per year from solid waste
31,652 Total lbs. PAN per year
Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA -MRCS FOTG
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
storage structure(s).
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied
while meeting the N requirements. In the future,
regulations may require farmers in some parts of North
Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
5

The irrigation application rate should not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the -time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in tables
1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen
shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.
A

WASTE APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the Waste Application Tables that follow are available
for waste application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to
apply waste to each of these fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen
(N) requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of
the soil Arid ' assuming. no double cropping. "
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.
The following legend explains the crop codes used in the field application
tables:

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Smith Farms is a family farm. They currently milk 250 head of
Holstein milk cows. All waste solids from the lot are scraped and stacked
into a compost shed where it goes through 2-4 heats. After each heat it is
turned over and allowed to go through another heat. if the waste has too
much water in it, sawdust is --added: This allows the product to be stacked.
After the waste has been composted it is transferred to a separate shed
where it is stacked once again for storage. During this storage the waste
will go through yet another heat.
Both of these buildings are roofed. The run-off from these buildings
is diverted and kept clean. They also have drainage systems that pump any
leachate back into the waste storage ponds. Generally there is very little
leachate due to the addition of dry sawdust to the product.
The product is then mixed to produce different bagged products, whic
will be sold as "Daddy Pete's" composted cow manure and various potting
mixes. This is a permitted operation that has been operating for 5 years.
The wastewater from the barn and the lot run-off are collected in a
waste storage pond. This liquid waste is irrigated, using a traveling gun
and reel, onto fields adjacent to the operation. This wastewater will have
very low nitrogen content due to the solids being eliminated from the pond.
NOTE: Make a c9py of this page and com late the information for each storage
structure in the planned system. Delete this note before giving the
Waste Utilization _Plan _to the „landowner or operator.

FIELD OFFICE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE TO FIELD OFFICE PERSONNEL PREPARING THIS PLAN:
The following items and the Required Specifications must be addressed in the Waste
Utilization Plan in order for the plan to meet the minimum requirements of the .0200
rules and NRCS standards. All of these concerns may not be applicable for a given
operation. Additional concerns may have to be addressed at certain operations. These
items express the minimum requirements. Where necessary, the planner/designer is to
elaborate on these concerns or add others as applicable. Comments within these items
that are in parenthesis, are underlined, and are bold typed are for Field Office reference
only and are not to be included in the landowner's copy of the plan. This note is also
provided only for Field Office reference and is not to be included in the landowner's copy
of the plan.
1. The waste utilization plan will include the entire animal waste generated on the farm.
2. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must be maintained below the
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event
in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. (The Field Office must have documentation in the desien folder that the producer
either owns or has a notarized long term 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 waste, -he/she shall provide NRCS with a copy of a
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application
for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a chance in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
utilization, or available land).
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and IeveI of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DWQ. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard
392 -Riparian Forest Buffer.l
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists which may
cause a danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When 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" in the Technical Reference - Environment rile.forguidance.)

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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or. when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich -waste is. being surface
applied. Surface broadcast solids or slurries may'damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquid holding structure. Where
crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot assimilate the
nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to occur. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients 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. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application at lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more than 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the
waste or disking will -conserve nutrients.
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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal). Animal waste (other than swine waste from facilities sited
on or after October 1, 1995J shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.

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.
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
wetlands provided a "technical specialist" has approved them as a land application
site. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways, which discharge
directly into watercourses. If animal waste is to be applied on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and 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/holding pond embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special
vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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/holding pond areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/hoIding pond berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
1$. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing an "approved 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 preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanent 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.
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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. Soil
pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) 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 NC regulations. North
Carolina General Statute 106-403 requires that dead animals be disposed of within 24
hours in a manner approved by the state veterinarian.

Alan Smith
Smith Farms
Solid Waste produced
219,354.83 cu.ft. / year
219,354.83 cu.ft. / 365days = 601 cu.ft./day
Structure #1 145ft. X 48ft. X 4ft. = 26,880 cu.ft.
Structure #2 24ft. X 16ft. X 120ft. = 40,080 cu.ft.
This structure uses an overhead conveyor to transfer the composted material from
the rear of the structure to the front. The composted material on the conveyor can
be deposited anywhere along the conveyor in order to rotate the stock. The
deposited compost can be stacked 16ft. high and it spreads out 24ft. at floor level.
Using the geometric formula for a triangle x the length of the building the storage
equals 40,080 cu.ft.
The run-off from both structures is diverted away from the solids and kept clean.
When the waste is scraped from the lot it is stored in an area that allows the excess
moisture to drain into a drop box and return to the waste storage pond. This area
is 20ft. X 40ft. and can be stacked an average of 4ft. allowing 3200 cuft of extra
storage.
This composted material is marketed as "Daddy Pete's" and is continuously being
bagged for wholesale shipments.
"Daddy Pete's" is a permitted operation.
Total storage is 76,160 cu.ft. / 601 cu.ft. per day = 126.7 days storage

Alan Smith Dairy Farm
Cattle Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Alexander County
In accordance with your application received on August 9, 1999, we are forwarding this Certificate of
Coverage (COC) issued to Alan Smith, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection,
treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. This
approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of
animal waste from the Alan Smith Dairy Farm Farm, located in Alexander County, with an animal
capacity of no greater than 400 Dairy and -the application to land as specified in the Certified Animal
Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003. Pursuant to this COC, you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP , and this COC, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any increase in waste production greater than
the"certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General
Permit or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS
143-215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
The facility's CAWMP meets all requirements in place at the time of certification. However, it appears
that the irrigation system on site may not adequately cover all acreage listed in the Waste Utilization
Plan. The owner should begin to address this inconsistency as soon as possible.

Solid Waste Storage
2/4/2000
Alan Smith
Smith Farms
Solid Waste produced
219,354.83 cu.ft. / year
219,354.83 cu.ft. / 365days = 601cu.ft./day
Structure #1 145ft. X 48ft. X 4ft. = 26,880 cu.ft.
Structure #2 24ft. X 16ft. X 120ft. = 40,080 cu.ft.
This structure uses an overhead conveyor to transfer the composted material from
the rear of the structure to the front. The composted material on the conveyor can
be deposited anywhere along the conveyor in order to rotate the stock. The
deposited compost can be stacked. 16ft. high and it spreads out 24ft. at floor level.
Using the geometric formula for a triangle x the length of the building the storage
equals 40,080 cu.ft.
The run-off from both structures is diverted away from the solids and kept clean.
When the waste is scraped from the lot it is stored in an area that allows the excess
moisture to drain into a drop box and return to the waste storage pond. This area
is 20ft. X 40ft. and can be stacked an average of 4ft. allowing 3200 cu.ft. of extra
storage.
This composted material is marketed as "Daddy Pete's" and is continuously being
bagged for wholesale shipments.
"Daddy Pete's" is a permitted operation.
Total storage is 76,160 cu.ft. / 601 cu.ft. per day = 126.7 days storage

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following major components:
1. CONTAMINATED LIQUID WASTE HOLDING POND
2. IRRIGATION AND SYSTEM
3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
and the following associated components
4. SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE (COMPOSTER)
All solid waste will be scraped from the lots and stored in a SOLID WASTE STORAGE
STRUCTURE (COMPOSTER). Solid waste will be stored in the composter and turned as
needed to promote heat cycles. This system consists of two covered structures. The first structure
is used as a composter. The solids are stacked in rows and turned as needed. The second structure
will be used for storage until the composted material is bagged.
All contaminated runoff will flow into the WASTE STORAGE POND. This structure is
designed to provide storage for (180 +) days of normal rainfall runoff from the feedlot, leachate
from the silos and provide storage space for the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour
storm runoff from the feedlot. The contaminated liquid is then irrigated on field #'s 1, 2, 3, 4,
and 5. of tract #851. Field #'s 8, 9, 10 will be added in the summer of 2000.

This Animal Waste Management System is designed to prevent discharge of Animal Waste
Contaminates to surface waters from the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm, as
required under the Non -discharge regulations.
All maintenance and operation costs are the responsibility of the landowner and cannot be
cost shared.
1. CONTAMINATED LIQUID WASTE HOLDING POND
04M1XUA
The WASTE STORAGE POND is designed to store the average feedlot runoff and leachate from
the silos. Additional storage space is included to contain the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four
(24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot. A four (4) inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe will be installed
in the pond, with the level of the endcap indicating the level of storage available prior to
infringing on the 25 year, 24 hour storm capacity.
OPERATION
The level of management for the entire system will determine the service life of the WASTE
STORAGE POND. How effectively the lot is scraped and your ability to time the scraping of the
lot before each storm event will determine the amount of solids, which reach the WASTE
STORAGE POND. Once the solids have reached the WASTE STORAGE POND, how
effectively the waste is agitated will determine the amount of solids which remain in the WASTE
STORAGE POND.
Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the WASTE STORAGE POND.
The accumulated solids should not reduce the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND
to a point, which requires removal of the solids for many years IF adequate lot scraping and
waste agitation is maintained. In contrast, poor management will result in the rapid accumulation
of solids, which will reduce the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND to the point
that some form of dredging will be required. If a large volume of solid waste is allowed to wash
from the lot and/or if inadequate agitation is performed, this dredging operation could be required
in a very short period of time.
If at any point in the future the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND becomes
reduced to the point that solids must be removed, the removal of these solids will be at your
expense. This would be part of the maintenance of your system and cannot be cost shared.
MAINTENANCE
Vegetation on the dam should be inspected periodically and reseeded as needed to maintain a
vigorous stand. The dam should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing
operations must take place only when the soil of the dam is dry, and vegetation should not be
mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches at any time. See CRITICAL AREA PLANTING
for further maintenance requirements. Any evidence of sloughing or seepage should be reported
to the Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District office.

2. IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM consists of a Hard -hose traveler Irrigation
System. See the irrigation design data sheets for more details.
OPERATION
Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District staff and/or USDA -Natural Resources
Conservation Service staff will be present during the first irrigation operation to assist in
determination of optimum equipment calibration level required.
Irrigation operation should be initiated prior to the liquid level reaching the full storage level
marker in the structure. When the liquid level in the WASTE STORAGE POND reaches the
marker, liquids must be removed by pumping from the structure into the irrigation system. Do
not irrigate in such a manner as to cause runoff or erosion. Do not irrigate on frozen or
saturated soils. Irrigate only until soil is near saturation point.
The initial step in each irrigation operation is to properly agitate the waste in the lagoon. For
irrigation, set-up the Hard -hose travelers according to your waste utilization plan, check all
valves, make sure no manual drains are closed and only lateral valves that have the traveler
connected are open, open discharge gate valve'/a, prime and start pump. Once water is
discharging from traveler, open discharge gate valve fully. Set time control switch for time pump
is to run. It is recommended that the traveler operation be checked frequently during
operation. See irrigation design plans for further information.
MAINTENANCE
Soils test the irrigation fields annually. Vegetation in the irrigation fields should be inspected
periodically to insure a vigorous stand. Fields may also need to be limed and fertilized annually.
3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION SYSTEM consists of gravity flow system. All
wastewater generated on the holding lot and all the silage leachate flow directly into the waste
holding pond. This water is then circulated through the solids separator and back into the waste
holding pond.

MAINTENANCE
Inspect the concrete components of the CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND
PIPING SYSTEM for cracks or other damage, and make repairs or replace as needed. In periods
of cold and subfreezing temperatures, inspect the pipe for accumulation of ice by CAREFULLY
removing the cap of the clean out. Caution: If liquids have accumulated in the pipe above the
clean out, the force of these liquids tends to "blow" the cap of the clean out off during removal.
Remove any ice manually or by melting with hot water.
4. SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE DRY STACK
OVERVIEW
The SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE (composter) is designed to store one hundred
twenty plus (120) days accumulation of solid wastes produced by a 400 head -milking herd. The
SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE consists of a reinforced concrete slab and a roof
structure. A concrete unloading pad is at the entrance to the structure.
OPERATION
Waste will be scraped on a regular basis, preferably daily. These solids will be transferred to the
composter or stored in a place where the runoff will flow into the waste holding pond.
MAINTENANCE
The SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE will need to be inspected periodically. Inspect
all metal components to ensure that galvanized coatings are in good repair and that no rust has
formed. Clean and re -coat as needed. Inspect wooden components for mechanical damage or rot
and repair or replace as needed. Inspect the concrete for major cracks. Contact the Alexander
Soil and Water Conservation District for technical assistance with concrete repair.
GENERAL COMMENTS
PESTICIDE USE
Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides so that desirable vegetation,
especially that of the dam, is not adversely affected. It is a violation of law to use any pesticide
in a manner not permitted by its labeling. To protect yourself, never apply any pesticide in a
manner or for a purpose other than as instructed on the label or in labeling accompanying the
pesticide product that you purchase. Do not ignore the instructions for use of protective clothing
and devices and for storage and disposal of pesticide wastes, including containers.
REPAIRS
Notify the Alexander Soil and Water conservation District if repairs or major modifications are
required for any of the components of this Waste Management System.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to
prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in
the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer
required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. You must
have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content as close to the
time of application as practical and at least within 60 days of the date of
application before each application cycle. Soil nutrients in all fields where
waste will be applied must be analyzed at least annually so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil
test and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. waste
application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.

EA.!k° ' kg�P�

Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in
order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is
applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Lime must be applied to application fields as
recommended by soil test to maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates,
leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water
holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5
tons per acre per year. With special precautions, (see Required
Specification No. 4) waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10
tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters, which is a violation of the North Carolina Division of
Water Quality (NCDWQ) .0200 regulations.
S. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste should also
be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce
the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing
crop. Otherwise apply waste no earlier than 30 days prior to
planting a crop or prior to forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or
otherwise incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where waste is
applied shall be monitored and alternative application fields shall be
used when these metals approach excess levels.

This plan is based on waste application by irrigation, for this is the manner in
which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to alter the method(s)
of application in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for
various waste application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical
nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual acreage
requirements shall be based on waste analysis reports from storage structures in
your waste management system. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
Solid waste Storage Structures Statement included at the back of this WUP.
Your (storage pond) is designed for 180 d__ ays of temporary storage and the
temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6 mo. If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the volume of waste
being stored in your structure be higher than the maximum storage marker except
in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for
assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of an animal
waste management system shall operate the waste management system, which is
covered by this waste utilization plan. The North Carolina Water Quality
Commission will provide training and certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality
Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA-NRCS FOTG
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
storage structure(s).
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied
while meeting the N requirements. In the future,
regulations may require farmers in some parts of North
Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
5

The irrigation application rate should -not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in tables
1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen
shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.

WASTE APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the waste Application Tables that follow are available
for waste application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to
apply waste to each of these fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen
(N) requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of
the soil and assuming no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.
The following legend explains the crop codes used in the field application
tables:

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Smith Fangs is a family farm. They currently milk 250 head of
Holstein milk cows. All waste solids from the lot are scraped and stacked
into a compost shed where it goes through 2-4 heats. After each heat it is
turned over and allowed to go through another heat. If the waste has too
much water in it, sawdust is added. This allows the product to be stacked.
After the waste has been composted it is transferred to a separate shed
where it is stacked once again for storage. During this storage the waste
will go through yet another heat.
Both of these buildings are roofed. The run-off from these buildings
is diverted and kept clean. They also have drainage systems that pump any
leachate back into the waste storage ponds. Generally there is very little
leachate due to the addition of dry sawdust to the product.
The product is then mixed to produce different bagged products, whic
will be sold as -Daddy Pete's" composted cow manure and various potting
mixes. This is a permitted operation that has been operating for 5 years.
The wastewater from the barn and the lot run-off are collected in a
waste storage pond. This liquid waste is irrigated, using a traveling gun
and reel, onto fields adjacent to the operation. This wastewater will have
very low nitrogen content due to the solids being eliminated from the pond.

(NOTE TO FIELD OFFICE PERSONNEL PREPARING THIS PLAN:
The following items and the Required Specifications must be addressed in the Waste
Utilization Plan in order for the plan to meet the minimum requirements of the .0200
rules and NRCS standards. All of these concerns may not be applicable for a given
operation. Additional concerns may have to be addressed at certain operations. These
items express the minimum requirements. Where necessary, the planner/designer is to
elaborate on these concerns or add others as applicable. Comments within these items
that are in parenthesis, are underlined, and are bold typed are for Field Office reference
only and are not to be included in the landowner's copy of the plan. This note is also
provided only for Field Office reference and is not to be included in the landowner's copy
of the plan.
1. The waste utilization plan will include the entire animal waste generated on the farm.
2. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must be maintained below the
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event
in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18

,WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. (The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has a notarized long term agreement for use of adequate land on
which to aroperly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land
to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide NRCS with a copy of a
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application
for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of f the
owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
utilization, or available land).
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DWQ. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard
392 - Riparian Forest Buffer.7
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists which may
cause a danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When 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 "in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)
19

7777-7

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is being surface
applied. Surface broadcast solids or slurries may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquid holding structure. Where
crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot assimilate the
nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to occur. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients 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. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application at lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more than 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
1 1. 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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal). Animal waste (other than swine waste from facilities sited
on or after October 1, 1995,) shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 392 - Riparian Forest Buffer)

AAS,-TE UTILIZrATI -N PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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.
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
wetlands provided a "technical specialist" has approved them as a land application
site. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways, which discharge
directly into watercourses. If animal waste is to be applied on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and 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/holding pond embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special
vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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/holding pond areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/holding pond 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 an "approved 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.
21

INAS 3 U I� IZAT ON PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanent 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.
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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. Soil
pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) 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 NC regulations. North
Carolina General Statute 106-403 requires that dead animals be disposed of within 24
hours in a manner approved by the state veterinarian.

Smith Farms
Solid Waste produced
219,354.83 cu.ft. / year
219,354.83 cu.ft. / 365days = 601 cu.ft./day
Structure #1 145ft. X 48ft. X 4ft. = 26,880 cu.ft.
Structure #2 24ft. X 16ft. X 120ft. = 40,080 cu.ft.
This structure uses an overhead conveyor to transfer the composted material from
the rear of the structure to the front. The composted material on the conveyor can
be deposited anywhere along the conveyor in order to rotate the stock. The
deposited compost can be stacked 16ft. high and it spreads out 24ft. at floor level.
Using the geometric formula for a triangle x the length of the building the storage
equals 40,080 cu.ft.
The run-off from both structures is diverted away from the solids and kept clean.
When the waste is scraped from the lot it is stored in an area that allows the excess
moisture to drain into a drop box and return to the waste storage pond. This area
is 20ft. X 40ft. and can be stacked an average of 4ft. allowing 3200 cuft of extra
storage.
This composted material is marketed as "Daddy Pete's" and is continuously being
bagged for wholesale shipments.
"Daddy Pete's" is a permitted operation.
Total storage is 76,160 cu.ft. / 601cu.ft. per day = 126.7 days storage

Additional Information Request
Alan Smith Dairy Farm
Animal Waste Operation
Alexander County
Dear Gar Alan Smith II:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary engineering review of the subject application. Additional
information is required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by July 1, 2000:
You recently resubmitted your permit application for an increase in animal numbers from 250 cows to 400
cows. A technical specialist has completed the Certification Amendment for Cattle Facilities, however this
form is to be used when the original certification filled out with the incorrect number of animals but the
original Waste Utilization Plan was written for the correct number of animals. In your situation, a technical
specialist must completely re -certify your facility for the increased number of animals. I have enclosed the
Certification Form for your convenience. I apologize for any confusion caused by the Certification
Amendment Form.
2. Please provide a map that identifies (outlines or highlights) and shows the acreage for Tract 861, field 5. I
could not identify it on any of the maps submitted.
Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be
signed, sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information requested by this letter,
must be submitted on or before July 1, 2000 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in accordance with 15A
N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.
Please be advised that operation of the subject animal waste management system without a valid permit is a violation of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and will subject you to the enforcement authority of the Environmental Management
Commission.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at [phone], extension 502.
—Sincerely,

I (we) verify that all the above information is correct and will be updated upon changing. I (we) understand the operation
and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste management plan for the farm named above and will .
implement these procedures. I (we) ]mow that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treatment and
storage system or construction of new facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the Division of
Environmental Management before the new animals are stocked. I (we) understand that there must be no discharge of
animal waste from the storage or application system to surface waters of the state either directly through a man-made
conveyance or from a storm event less severe than the 25-year, 2 -hour storm and there must nor be tun -off from the
application of animal waste. I (we) understand that run-off of pollutants from lounging and heavy use areas must be
minimized using technical standards developed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service. The approved plan will be
filed at the farm and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District. I (we) know that any modification
mast be approved . by a technical - specialist and submitted to the Soil and Water Conservation District prior to
implementation. A change in land ownership requires written notification to DEM or a new certification (if the approved
plan is changed) within 60 days of a title transfer.

Alan Smith Dairy Farm is certified for 400 head of
dairy cows. However, at this time they are only milking
around 250 head. If they choose to go to 400 head they
have the storage and the acres to handle the amount of
waste generated. One huge factor needs to be taken into
consideration when reviewing this plan. Alan Smith Dairy
Farms composts all of their waste solids generated by their
confined operation. This product is then bagged and sold
as "Daddy Pete's Products". These products are then sold
wholesale to Garden Supply Centers around the area.
When the solids are taken out of the WUP this farm
only needs 14.26 acres to handle the PAN produced from
the miikroom and lot run-off. -At this time they are farming
285.14 acres. The number of acres needed for all waste
produced from 400 head would be 176.79 acres.

Storage Structure(s): waste Storage Pond and Compost Shed
Application Method(s)2 Irrigate liquid; bag composted solids
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
You must have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content
as close to the time of application as practical and at least within
60 days of the -date of application before each application cycle.
Soil nutrients in all fields where waste will be applied must be
analyzed at least annually so that all plant nutrients can be balanced
for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil test and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. waste
application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1

0
1
PLAN..
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Lime must be
applied to application fields as recommended by soil test to
maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at
greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, (see Required Specification No. 4) waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is a violation
of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)
.0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste
should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be
applied to a growing crop. Otherwise apply waste no
earlier than 30 days prior to planting a crop or prior to
forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or otherwise
incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where
waste is applied shall be monitored and alternative
application fields shall be used when these metals approach
excess levels.

I111` DCT��-,1 1T 1 H 17 A ""il lip1\1
This plan is based on waste application by irrigation, for this is the
manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. 2f you choose to
alter the method(s) of application in the future, you need to revise
this plan. Nutrient levels for various waste application methods are
not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on
typical nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual
acreage requirements shall be based on waste analysis reports from
storage structures in your waste management system. Attached you will
find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and
transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
Your (storage pond) is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
b mo. If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the
volume of waste being stored in your structure be higher than the
maximum storage marker except in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour
storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of
an animal waste management system shall operate the waste management
system, which is covered by this waste utilization plan. The North
Carolina Water Quality Commission will provide training and
certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the..0200 rules) adopted by the
Water Quality Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source:,USDA-MRCS FOTG
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
storage structure(s).
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied
while meeting the N requirements. In the future,
regulations may require farmers in some parts of North
Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.

The irrigation application rate should not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in tables
1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen
shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.

WASTE APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the Waste Application Tables that follow are available
for waste application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to
apply waste to each of these fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen
(N) requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of
the soil and assuming no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.
The following legend explains the crop codes used in the field application
tables:

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This producer separates the solids from the liquid waste with a centrifuge. The
solids are then stored in piles in a long shed while it goes through several
composting phases or "heats." The composted solids are bagged and sold to
various retail customers. Since the solids are not spread on crop or grass
fields they are not subject to .0200 guidelines. They are handled through a
separate WUP under Alan Smith -Daddy Pete's Plant Pleaser.
NOTE: Make a copy of this page and complete the information for each storage
structure in the planned system. Delete this note before giving the

STEUTILIZA.T[DN' . PLAN
FIELD OFFICE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE TO FIELD OFFICE PERSONNEL PREPARING THIS PLAN:
The following items and the Required Specifications must be addressed in the Waste
Utilization Plan in order for the plan to meet the minimum requirements of the .0200
rules and NRCS standards. All of these concerns may not be applicable for a given
operation. Additional concerns may have to be addressed at certain operations. These
items express the minimum requirements. Where necessary, the planner/designer is to
elaborate on these concerns or add others as applicable. Comments within these items
that are in parenthesis, are underlined, and are bold typed are for Field Office reference
only and are not to be included in the landowner's copy of the plan. This note is also
provided only for Field Office reference and is not to be included in the landowner's copy
of the plan.
1. The waste utilization plan will include the entire animal waste generated on the farm.
2. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must be maintained below the
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event
in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. (The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has a notarized long term 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 waste, he/she shall provide NRCS with a copy of a
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application
for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the
'owner of the facility_to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
utilization, or available land).
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DWQ. [See FOTG Standard 393^- Filter Strips andStandard
392 - Ri arian Forest Buffer
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists which may
cause a danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When 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" in the Technical Reference - Environment fllefiorguidance.)
19

L WASTE UT-11"i'LIZAT'''tON PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is being surface
applied. Surface broadcast solids or slurries may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquid holding structure. Where
crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot assimilate the
nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to occur. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients 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. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application at lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more than 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal), Animal waste (other than swine waste from facilities sited
on or after October 1, 1995,) shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 392 - Riparian Forest Bu ffer)
20

WASTE..U.TILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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.
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
wetlands provided a "technical specialist" has approved them as a land application
site. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways, which discharge
directly into watercourses. If animal waste is to be applied on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and 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/holding pond embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special
vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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/holding pond areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/holding pond 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 an "approved 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.
21

WASTE UTILIZATION
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
PLAN
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 preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanent 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.
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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. Soil
pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) 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 NC regulations. North
Carolina General Statute 106-403 requires that dead animals be disposed of within 24
hours in a manner approved by the state veterinarian.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following major components:
1. CONTAMINATED LIQUID WASTE HOLDING POND
2. IRRIGATION AND SYSTEM
3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
and the following associated components
4. SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE (COMPOSTER)
All solid waste will be scraped from the lots and stored in a SOLID WASTE STORAGE
STRUCTURE (COMPOSTER). Solid waste will be stored in the composter and turned as
needed to promote heat cycles. This system consists of two covered structures. The first structure
is used as a composter. The solids are stacked in rows and turned as needed. The second structure
will be used for storage until the composted material is bagged.
All contaminated runoff will flow into the WASTE STORAGE POND. This structure is
designed to provide storage for (180 +) days of normal rainfall runoff from the feedlot, leachate
from the silos and provide storage space for the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour
storm runoff from the feedlot. The contaminated liquid is then irrigated on field #2 of tract #861.

This Animal Waste Management System is designed to prevent discharge of Animal Waste
Contaminates to surface waters from the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm, as
required under the Non -discharge regulations.
All maintenance and operation costs are the responsibility of the landowner and cannot be
cost shared.
1. CONTAMINATED LIQUID WASTE HOLDING POND
OVERVIEW
The WASTE STORAGE POND is designed to store the average feedlot runoff and leachate from
the silos. Additional storage space is included to contain the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four
(24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot. A four (4) inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe will be installed
in the pond, with the level of the endcap indicating the level of storage available prior to
infringing on the 25 year, 24 hour storm capacity.
OPERATION
The level of management for the entire system will determine the service life of the WASTE
STORAGE POND. How effectively the lot is scraped and your ability to time the scraping of the
lot before each storm event will determine the amount of solids, which reach the WASTE
STORAGE POND. Once the solids have reached the WASTE STORAGE POND, how
effectively the waste is agitated will determine the amount of solids which remain in the WASTE
STORAGE POND.
Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the WASTE STORAGE POND.
The accumulated solids should not reduce the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND
to a point, which requires removal of the solids for many years IF adequate lot scraping and
waste agitation is maintained. In contrast, poor management will result in the rapid accumulation
of solids, which will reduce the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND to the point
that some form of dredging will be required. If a large volume of solid waste is allowed to wash
from the lot and/or if inadequate agitation is performed, this dredging operation could be required
in a very short period of time.
If at any point in the future the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND becomes
reduced to the point that solids must be removed, the removal of these solids will be at your
expense. This would be part of the maintenance of your system and cannot be cost shared.
MAINTENANCE
Vegetation on the dam should be inspected periodically and reseeded as needed to maintain a
vigorous stand. The dam should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing
operations must take place only when the soil of the dam is dry, and vegetation should not be
mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches at any time. See CRITICAL AREA PLANTING
for further maintenance requirements. Any evidence of sloughing or seepage should be reported
to the Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District office.

2. IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM consists of a Hard -hose traveler Irrigation
System. See the irrigation design data sheets for more details.
OPERATION
Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District staff and/or USDA -Natural Resources
Conservation Service staff will be present during the first irrigation operation to assist in
determination of optimum equipment calibration level required.
Irrigation operation should be initiated prior to the liquid level reaching the full storage level
marker in the structure. When the liquid level in the WASTE STORAGE POND reaches the
marker, liquids must be removed by pumping from the structure into the irrigation system. Do
not irrigate in such a manner as to cause runoff or erosion. Do not irrigate on frozen or
saturated soils. Irrigate only until soil is near saturation point.
The initial step in each irrigation operation is to properly agitate the waste in the lagoon. For
irrigation, set-up the Hard -hose travelers according to your waste utilization plan, check all
valves, make sure no manual drains are closed and only lateral valves that have the traveler
connected are open, open discharge gate valve 1/a, prime and start pump. Once water is
discharging from traveler, open discharge gate valve fully. Set time control switch for time pump
is to run. It is recommended that the traveler operation be checked frequently during
operation. See irrigation design plans for further information.
MAINTENANCE
Soils test the irrigation fields annually. Vegetation in the irrigation fields should be inspected
periodically to insure a vigorous stand. Fields may also need to be limed and fertilized annually.
3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION SYSTEM consists of gravity flow system. All
wastewater generated on the holding lot and all the silage leachate flow directly into the waste
holding pond. This water is then circulated through the solids separator and back into the waste
holding pond.

0
•,
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the concrete components of the CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND
PIPING SYSTEM for cracks or other damage, and make repairs or replace as needed. In periods
of cold and subfreezing temperatures, inspect the pipe for accumulation of ice by CAREFULLY
removing the cap of the clean out. Caution: If liquids have accumulated in the pipe above the
clean out, the force of these liquids tends to "blow" the cap of the clean out off during removal.
Remove any ice manually or by melting with hot water.
4. SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE DRY STACK
OVERVIEW
The SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE (composter) is designed to store one hundred
eighty plus (180) days accumulation of solid wastes produced by a 250 head -milking herd. The
SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE consists of a reinforced concrete slab and a roof
structure. A concrete unloading pad is at the entrance to the structure.
OPERATION
Waste will be scraped on a regular basis, preferably daily. These solids will be transferred to the
composter or stored in a place where the runoff will flow into the waste holding pond.
MAINTENANCE
The SOLID WASTE STORAGE STRUCTURE will need to be inspected periodically. Inspect
all metal components to ensure that galvanized coatings are in good repair and that no rust has
formed. Clean and re -coat as needed. Inspect wooden components for mechanical damage or rot
and repair or replace as needed. Inspect the concrete for major cracks. Contact the Alexander
Soil and Water Conservation District for technical assistance with concrete repair.
GENERAL COMMENTS
PESTICIDE USE
Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides so that desirable vegetation,
especially that of the dam, is not adversely affected. It is a violation of law to use any pesticide
in a manner not permitted by its labeling. To protect yourself, never apply any pesticide in a
manner or for a purpose other than as instructed on the label or in labeling accompanying the
pesticide product that you purchase. Do not ignore the instructions for use of protective clothing
and devices and for storage and disposal of pesticide wastes, including containers.
REPAIRS
Notify the Alexander Soil and Water conservation District if repairs or major modifications are
required for any of the components of this Waste Management System.
