The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface 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. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all
plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
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. 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. Soil types are
important as theyhave different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. 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 not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 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 or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed. to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find. information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carved out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H:0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Applying the above I amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner

NOTE. The applicator Is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some
eastern counties of North Caroline to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients.

Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 MONTHS. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure exceed Elevation *see lagoon design.
Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or Soil
and Water Conservation District office 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.
Narrative of operation:
Acres shown are 'wetted' acres.
This plan is based on a corn/small rain ha Iso bean rotation. Cotton may be substituted for corn or
soybeans in the rotation as long as the following rates and application times are used:
Cotton 84 Ibs PAN 1 Acre April - August
The substitution of cotton for corn or soybeans in any or all of the fields will still result in a
deficit amount of PAN in this plan:
Small Grain must be cut for hay or silage and must be harvested by April 7th of each year.

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.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, helshe shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the 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, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be.reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is 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" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 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. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and 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 perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
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
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a
manner that courses 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.
Page 6

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as tree% shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption It should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
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 soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five 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.
Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Division of Water Quality'(Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General
Permit AWG100000. 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.
In accordance with your application received on March 13, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Craig
King, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS710056 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-Watha. Farm- K-6, . located -in Pender County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 1248 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as specified in
the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
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 (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.

(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface 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. Waste
should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged
so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
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. 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. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. 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 not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 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 or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 151,
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 MONTHS. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure exceed Elevation 'see lagoon design.
Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservalioi) Service) or Soil
and Water Conservation District office 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.
Narrative of operation. _
cres shown are 'wetted' acres
This plan is based on a corn/small grain(hay)/soybean rotation. Cotton may be substituted for corn or
soybeans in the rotation as long as the following rates and application times are used:
Cotton 84 Ibs PAN / Acre April - August
The substitution of cotton for corn or soybeans in any or all of the fields will still result in a
deficit amount of PAN in this plan.
Small Grain must be cut for hay or silage and must be harvested by April 7th of each year.

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.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the 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, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is 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" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
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 covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. 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. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and 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 perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
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.
1 ; 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
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist'.
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a
manner that courses no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks. etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage or discharge.
18 if animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
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 soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five 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 North Carolina regulations.

Acting pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes (G.S.)
143-215.6 and North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
(Commission) Rule Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code
(NCAC) 21 .0003, 1, George T. Everett, Director of the Division
of Environmental Management, make the following:
I. FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. King Farms is located along NCSR 1318, approximately
one-half mile east of US Highway 117, near Burgaw, Pender
County, North Carolina. Approximately 3600 hogs, including
600 mature sows, are confined in six enclosed houses with
slotted floors. Wastewater from the houses is collected in
two single cell lagoons. Urine and solid wastes are washed
down the slotted floors and discharged via a PVC pipe into a
lagoon.
B. On October 26, 1987, staff of the Wilmington Regional
Office (WIRO) responded to a complaint at this facility. At
this time, a 10"-12" concrete pipe was discharging
wastewater from one of the hog houses into a ditch. Water
from an open pit used to bury dead hogs was also being
discharged into a ditch. There had been no rain during the
month of October 1987 and the rear lagoon was within one
foot of overflowing. It was recommended to Mr. Bud Newkirk,
General Manager, that the concrete pipe and the burial pit
be sealed. As a result of this investigation, King Hog Farm
on NCSR 1318 was designated a concentrated animal feeding
operation by letter dated December 30, 1987. In part the
letter states, "If the discharge of waste to the surface
waters of the State is not permanently eliminated within
sixty (60) days of receipt of this notice an NPDES permit
application must be submitted within that time."
C. On March 28, 1989, staff of WIRO investigated the
second complaint of this facility. During the investigation
an unpermitted discharge was found which originated from a
watering trough. A 2" PVC pipe from this watering trough
was discharging feed, saliva, solids and water into a

-2-
man-made ditch which drained into an unnamed tributary to
the Northeast Cape Fear River. Fecal coliform levels in
this discharge were 36,000 colonies/100ml. The spray
irrigation field used to dispose of wastewater from the
lagoons was ponding and runoff from the field was entering a
ditch which flows to an unnamed tributary to the Northeast
Cape Fear River. Mr. Newkirk was served a Notice of
Violation Citation #012069 during the investigation.
D. On April 6, 1989, a Notice of Violation (NOV) was sent
to Mr. Craig King by certified mail, relative to the 3/28/89
inspection. The violations noted therein were as follows:
1. An unpermitted discharge which originated from the
watering trough containing feed, saliva, solids and
water was routed into a ditch, which drains into an
unnamed tributary to the Northeast Cape Fear River.
2. .The spray irrigation field was ponding and surface
runoff had entered the ditch at the rear of the field.
E. The April 6, 1989 NOV specified that the following
corrective actions be taken:
1. Permanently remove the 2" diameter PVC pipe
discharging wastewater to the ditch.
2. Seal the end of the ditch and backf ill the ditch
with fresh soil.
3. Construct an earthen berm to surround the spray
irrigation field sufficient to prevent runoff from the
field from entering the ditch or leaving the site.
4. Application rates for spraying should be modified
so that several applications are made per week rather
than over dosing the field in 1 day.
F. On January 24, 1990, Mr. Jim Gregson and Mr. Mike
Williams of WIRO visited the hog farm as a result of a
complaint. The complainant indicated that wastes from the
operation were ponding on a spray irrigation field and
surface runoff was entering a ditch. Mr. Bud Newkirk,
General Manager of the hog farm, was present during the
investigation. Mr. Newkirk was informed of the nature of
the complaint. The inspection of the operation revealed
that the spray irrigation field was ponding and discharging
to a ditch around the perimeter of the field, which drains
to a tributary of the Northeast Cape Fear River. Evidence
of a ruptured pipe was also found which (according to Mr.
Newkirk) allowed waste to be discharged into this same ditch
system. This discharge was not reported to the Division.
Samples collected in the ditch downstream of the hog farm
revealed fecal coliform levels of 85,000 colonies/100ml, 212

-3-
times the State standard, and a dissolved oxygen value of
1.8 mg/l.
G. On February 9, 1990, a NOV was sent to Mr. Craig King
by certified mail, relative to the January 24, 1990
inspection. The violation noted therein were as follows:
1. The spray irrigation field was ponding on the site
and surface runoff was entering a ditch at the
southern and eastern ends of the field which
drains into an unnamed tributary to the Northeast
Cape Fear River.
2. Evidence of a ruptured pipe was found which
allowed wastewater to be discharged into this same
ditch system. The discharge was not reported to
the Division.
3. _Fecal coliform levels in the ditch downstream of
the spray fields were 85,000 colonies/100ml, 212
times the State standard for Class C waters.
H. The February 9, 1990 NOV specified that the following
corrective actions be taken:
1. Eliminate the discharge of hog waste to the
surface waters of the State. This may require
that additional land be obtained for spray
irrigation.
2. Construct an earthen berm around the present spray
fields to prevent surface runoff from entering
adjacent ditches.
3. Separate pumps may be needed for spray irrigation
and recirculation of wastewater for washdown to
insure that spray heads receive adequate pressure
for normal operation during recirculation.
4. Any future discharges, including discharges due to
accidental line breaks must be reported to this
office.
I. Staff costs and expenses associated with detecting the
violations, defining their nature and extent and bringing
the enforcement action totalled $698.12.
Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following:

FOR VIOLATIONS OF: ) FINDINGS AND DECISION
AND ASSESSMENT OF
G.S. 143-215.1(a)(1) "CONTROL ) CIVIL PENALTIES

Acting pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes (G.S.)
143-215.6 and North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
(Commission) Rule Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code
(NCAC) 2J .0003, 1, George T. Everett, Director of the Division
Of Environmental Management, make the following:
I. FINDINGS OF FACT -
A. King Farms is located along NCSR 1318, approximately
one-half mile east of U5 Highway 117, near Hurgaw, Fender
County, North Carolina. Approximately 3600 hogs, including
600 mature sows, are confined in six enclosed houses with
slotted, floors. Wastewater from the -houses is collected in
two single cell lagoons. Urine and solid wastes are washed
down the slotted floors and discharged via a PVC pipe into a
lagoon.
B. On October 26, 1987, staff of the Wilmington Regional
Office (WIRO) responded to a complaint at this facility. At
this time, a 10"-12" concrete pipe was discharging
wastewater from one of the hog houses into a ditch. Water
from an open pit used to bury dead hogs was also being
discharged Into a ditch. There had been no rain during the
month of October 1987 And the rear lagoon was within one
foot of overflowing. It was recommended to Mr_ Bud Newkirk,
General Manager, that the concrete pipe and the burial pit
be sealed. As a result of this investigation, Ring Hag Farm
on NCSR 2318 was designated a concentrated animal feeding
operation by letter dated December 30, 1987. In part the
letter states, "If the discharge of waste to the surface
waters of the state is not permanently eliminated within
sixty (60) days of receipt of this notice an NPDES permit
application must be submitted within that time."
C. Orx March 28, 1989, staff of WIRO investigated the
second complaint of this facility. During the investigation
an unpermitted discharge was found which originated from a
watering trough. A 2" PVC pipe from this watering trough
was discharging feed, saliva, solids and water into a

07/17/2001 15:36 919-733-0059 NON -DISCHARGE CW PAGE 07
-2
man-made ditch which drained into an unnamed tributary to
the Northeast Gape Year River. Fecal coliform levels in
this discharge were 36,00o colonie0/10Om1. The spray
irrigation field used to dispose of wastewater from the
lagoons was ponding and runoff from the field was entering a
ditch which flows to an unnamea tributary to the Northeast
Cape Fear River. Mr. Newkirk was served a Notice of
Violation citation #012o69 during the investigation.
D. on April 6, 1939, a Notice of Violation (NOV) was sent
to Mr. Crake King by oertified mail, relative to the 3/28/89
inspection. The violations noted therein were as follows:
1. An unpermitted discharge which originated from the
wataring trough containing feed, sailva, sollds and
water was routed into a ditch, which drains into an
unnamed tributary to the Northeast Cape Fear River.
2. .The spray irrigation field was ponding and surface
runoff had entered the ditch at the rear of the field.
E. The April 6, 1909 NOV specified that the following
corrective actions be taken:
1. permanently remove the 2" diameter PVC pip*
discharging wastewater to the ditch.
2. Seal the end of the ditch and backfill the ditch
with fresh soil.
3. Construct an earthen berm to surround the spray
irrigation field Sufficient to prevent runoff from the
field from entering the ditch or leaving the site.
4. Application rates for spraying should be modified
so that several applications are made per week rather
than over dosing the field in I day.
F. On January 24, 1990, Mr. Jim Gregson and Mr. Mike
Williams of wrRO visited the hog farm as a result of a
complaint. The complainant indicated that wastes from the
operation were t=ding on a spray irrigation field and
surface runoff was entering a ditch. Mr. Bud Newkirk,
General Manager of the hog farm, was present during the
investigation. Mr. Newkirk ryas informed of the nature of
the complaint. The inspection of the operation revealed
that the spray irrigation field was ponding and discharging
to a ditch around the perimeter of the field, which drains
to a tributary of the Northeast Cape Fear River. Evidence
of a ruptured pipe was also found which (according to Mr.
Newkirk) allowed waste to be discharged into this same ditch
system. This discharge was not reported to the Division.
ftmples collected in the ditch downstream of the hog farm
revealed fecal coliform levels of 85,00o colonies/looml, 212

-3-
times the state standard, and a dissolved oxygen value of
1.8 mg/ 1
G. On February 9, 1990, a NOV was sent to Mr. Craig King
by certified mail, relative to the January 24, 1990
inspection. The violation noted therein were as follows:
1. The spray irrigation field was ponding on the site
and surface runoff was entering a ditch at the
southern and eastern ends of the field which
drains into an unnamed tributary to the Northeast
Cape Fear River_
2. Evidence of a ruptured pipe was found which
allowed wastewater to be discharged into this same
ditch systom _ The discharge was not reported to
the Division.
3. Fecal colirorm levels in the ditch downstream of
the spray fields were 85,000 oolonies/100zl, 212
times the State standard for Class C waters.
H. The February 9, 1990 Nov specified that the following
corrective actions be taken:
1. Eliminate the discharge of hog waste to the
surface waters of the State. This may require
that additional land be obtained for spray
irrigation.
2. Construct an earthen berm around the present spray
fields to prevent surface runoff rrom entering
adjacent ditches,
3. Separate pumps may be needed for spray irrigation
and recirculation of wastewater for washdown to
insure that spray heads receive adequate pressure
for normal operation during reci.rculatien.
4.. Any future discharges, including discharges due to
accidental line breaks must be reported to this
office.
I_ Staff costs and expenses associated with detecting the
violations, defining their nature and extent and bringing
the anforcement action totalled $698.12.

This letter is written as an explanation, not as an excuse, as to
the reason we did not send a letter within 5 days of our violation.
All of our employees have been informed by me to notify me if
there are any spills and let me contact DWQ so I can furnish
facility numbers and any other information needed. I was away
on business when this incident occurred and by the time I was
made aware of the incident, DWQ was already.on the farm. The
employees did not understand that they'should have contacted DWQ
since I was unavailable.
We spent two days on the farm with DWQ and one day with SBI and
time slipped away on sending in the required notification within
five days after the incident. --
Attached is the letter concerning the spill at K6 on February 15, 2000.

Sub_lect: Volume Calculanons
K-6 Sow Farm
Dear Mr. Fling:
On February 23f° I met with Buddy King on the King Farms K-6 Sow Farm in Pender County
on SR 1313_ He reque ced I take field measurements and Provide calculations to determine the volume
of wastewater contained in the existing lagoon between two known elevations. The elevations were
between the 23-inch and 25-inch marks on the level indicator. This level indicator is a gauge that
rncasures the remaining available storage in the lagoon. Thor: fore the level at the 23-inch mark is
hislzer than the level at the 25-inch marl-.
Actual field ineasurtments were taken on the length and width of the lagoon. I also -shot
elevations on the top of the dire and the lagoon level. The level on February 73'shed the 217-inch
mark on the level indicator. In additiorn, the sides slopes were determined to be between a 3:1 and
This information was compared to the original design plans and found to be consistent. f have
enclosed calculation sheets from a design spreadsheet that takes into account the actual volumes of the
lagoon ai the 23-inch indicator level and the 25-inch indicator level. It uses a 2.5;1 side slope. which if
anything will calculate a slightly larber volume than the 3.1 side slope. As a result, I conclude that The
total volume is 3:215 cubic feet or 68.928 vallons.
Should you need am, additional assistance please do not hesitate -to contact me at 910-296-1170.

Dear Mr. Shiver,
On February 15, 2000 there was a spill at our K6 sow farm in
Pender County. A flush tank malfunctioned and ran water onto the
ground. The spill was discovered between 7:30 - 8:00 am by
Billy Wood who immediately called my.son Buddy King. Buddy
drove to the farm, assessed the situation and corrected the problem.
He repaired the flush tank, stopping the flow of water and causing
it to operate properly. All of the switches and float valve have
been replaced and the flush tank is completely repaired.
I hired Floyd Adams, an engineer with the Adams Cbmpany,-=to
determine the volume of wastewater spilled. His report is
attached to this letter.
I also contacted North Carolina Pork Council in Raleigh at which time Ms. Beth Ann Mumford sent press releases to all three news-
papers in Pender County concerning the spill.
Apologetically, I failed to get the letter sent in to DWQ within
the five day period. King Farms has tried extremely hard to be
good stewards of our environment. I assure you we are doing
everything we can to remain in compliance with all rules and
regulations concerning spray fields. Our lagoon levels and flush
tanks are checked daily and when irrigating, someone is watching
constantly.
We apologize to DWQ and the people of Pender County for this mishap.

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 Patrick Fussell on 6/9/99 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".
Cat ego y 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 Patrick Fussell the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Patrick Fussell, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Patrick Fussell at [phone]. If within 90 days
you are unable to provide Patrick Fussell with the information ycsu are automatically
required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2
below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter.

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 flan
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.
PIease be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
Iiability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.

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. HRRl, IRR2, DRY1, 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.

The waste from this swine production Facility must be land applied at specified rates to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. These rates are based on soil types of the land to be irrigated, the
RYE's of the soil, and the PAN required to efficiently grow the (crops in the fields where waste is
applied. This Nutrient Management Plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are required so that all plant
nutrient requirements can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in Implementing this plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Factors included are:
a. Always apply waste based on crop needs and the nutrient content of the waste.
b. Do not over apply nitrogen.
c. Soil types are important because of different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and water holding capacities.
d. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the ground is frozen either of
which could lead to surface runoff.
e. Consider wind conditions to avoid drift and down wind odor problems.
f. Waste can only be applied to actively growing crops or not more than 30 days prior to planting
a crop or to forages breaking dormancy.
This plan is based on waste being applied using irrigation. If the application method is changed, this
plan will have to be revised because nutrient content varies depending on how it is applied.
The estimated acres needed to apply the waste as described above is based on average analyses
for this type facility. Actual acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report
from your facility. This nutrient management plan, if followed, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 21-11.0217 as adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

NOTE: The acres sted in Table 2 were determined by (please mark appropriate box) one of the
following methods: ] using 70% of available acreage, or [ ] using measurements and
calculations found on the irrigation design worksheet. This accounts for required buffers, filter strips
along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application
rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field are most likely more than those
shown in table 2.
The nitrogen balance shown in table 2 should be equal to or less than 0 to fully utilize the nutrients
produced by the swine production on this farm. To produce crops at the RYE's shown may
require the use of commercial fertilizer to balance fertilization rates in crop rotations. This farm is
producing 6,750.00 lbs. of nitrogen per year In the waste water and an additional 1,050.00
lbs. of nitrogen accumulates annually as sludge. To land apply the liquid portion in an acceptable
manner requires the irrigation system to pump and spread 4,003,750.00 total gallons
annually. This involves spreading 147.45 acre -inches per year over the farms 60.40
total acres, or an average of 2.44 inches is to be applied, on average, to each acre
irrigated.

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN
Using this outline as guidance, you should develop a specific emergency action plan for
your waste handling system. This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from
your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait
until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a
problem: 'You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan
should be available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could
happen at any time. Your plan should follow this format:
1 _ Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or
may not be possible. Suggested responses to problems are listed below:
a. Lagoon overflow —possible solutions are:
add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam --any
permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a
qualified technical specialist
pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate
stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waterers) —hold waste in
house if possible
call a pumping contractor
make sure no surface water is entering lagoon
NOTE: These activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the
temporary storage level.
b. Runoff from waste application field —actions include:
immediately stop waste application
create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on
the field
incorporate waste to reduce further runoff
C. Leakage from the waste distribution system:
pipes and sprinklers —actions include:
-- stop recycle (flushing system) pump
— stop irrigation pump
-- close valves to eliminate further discharge
separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
flush system, houses, solids separators —actions include:
stop recycle (flushing system) pump
stop irrigation pump
make sure no siphon effect has been created
separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
d. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often these are seepage as
opposed to flowing leaks --possible action*:
dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a
submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon
if holes are caused by burrowing animals,trap or remove
animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil
other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil
'Lagoon problems require the consultation of an individual
experienced in the design and installation of lagoons for permanent
repair measures.

2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
C. Any damage notes, such as employee injury,fish kills, or property
damage?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DEM regional office, at
910-395-3900, after hours, emergency number: 919-733-3942.
Your phone call should include: your name, facility, telephone
number, the details of incident from item 2 above, the exact
location of the facility, and the location or
direction of movement of the spill, weather and wind
conditions, what corrective measures have been under taken,
and the seriousness of the situation.
b. If spill leaves, of is likely to leave, property or enters surface
waters, call local emergency management services (EMS) at 910-296-
2160.
C. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department.
d. Contact local Soil and Water Conservation District
Natural Resources Conservation Service office at 910-296-2121,
and Cooperative Extension Service at 910-296-2143for
advice/technical assistance.
e. If you are a contract swine grower associated with a swine company
integrator, contact the company representative.
4. Implement procedures as advised by DEM and technical assistance
agencies to rectify the damage, repair the system, and reassess the
waste management plan to keep problems with release of wastes from
happening again.

vc I urne must always be available. A maximum elevation is
determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually
the cutlet •invert of pipes) from bui Idirig (s). If the cutlet
pipe is not instal led on, the e•i evat i orr to begin pumping, a
permanent marker- roust be instal led on this elevation to
indicate when pumping should begin. An al'evation must be
estate I i shed to step pumping to rna i nta i n m i n i rnurn treatment depth
(6 feet) . Pumping can be started or stopped any time between
these two elevations for operating convenience as site
conditions permit (weather-, soils, crop, and equipment to apply
waste without runoff or leaching).
Land app I i cat i on of waste water- i s redogn i zed 'as an acceptab I e
method of disposal. Methods of application include so I i d set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gurr, irrigation. Care should
be taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field
or damage to crops.
The fo I lowing items are to be carried out:
1. It is strQngly recommended tha the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. So I i ds
should be covered with effluent at all times. When pre -
charging is completed, flush tauildirigs with recycled lagoon
I i qui d. Fresh water- should not be used for flushing after -
initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed.
This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see
Attachment B) before land app I i cat i can.

S. Bleg i n pump -out of the I agoc-ri when f l u i d I eve I reaches e I ever-
t i on 50.80 as marked by permanent markers. , Stop purnp-taut
when the f l u i d I eve I reaches e I evat i on 4S.EDC) or before
fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the lass of
favorable bacteria). The design temporary storage, less Z5 year
storm i s 120343 cubic feet or 901316Z gal I ons. As stated
before, this volume w i I I vary considerably from year to year.
4. The recommended rna:; i rnum amount to apply per irrigation is one
(1) irich and the recommended maximum appIicat ion rate is 0.4
inches per hour.
5. K'eep vegetation can embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon
mowed annually. Vegetation should be fert i I i zed as needed to
maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair- any eroded areas or areas damaged by rt,,dents and
establish in vegetation.
7. AI I surface runoff is to be diverted from the Iagoon to
stable outlets.
S. Keep a minirnurn of 100 feet cropland buffer- or 25 feet of grass
vegetated buffer- around waste utilization fields, particularly adjacent
to ponds, lakes, streams, open ditches, etc. Do not pump within
SC7Cr feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a we I I .
9. The Clean Water- Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.
NOTES:

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure anupdate 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, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5'or-more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors -can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
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" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
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 covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.
Page: 8

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
r
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. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October.l, 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 perennial waters.
(See Standard-393 - Filter Strips).
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..
nim Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste.management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms,
pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as.necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and
other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered
appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence
of erosion, leakage or discharge.
Page: 9

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
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. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five 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 North
Carolina regulations.

Please review the attached plan and specifications carefully. Retain this plan for your useJUand eco d�.
It is strongly recommended that you, your contractor, and ADePt Construction & Development, Inc. staff
are in agreement as to how the lagoon is to be constructed. ADePt's personnel will' m eeta wi&ra11ffng
concerned parties and walk over the site to explain all flags and markings. It is important that everyone
understandS-what is expected so that final construction meets plans and specifications and the job can be
certified.
The pad dimensions and grades are the best estimate. The builder or contractor is responsible for final
layout and design of the pads. ADePt will assist in a limited capacity. The major concern of all parties
shall be the proper design and construction of the waste treatment lagoon.
The actual amount of material required for pads and dam may vary from the estimates. The design will
attempt to balance cuts and fills as close as possible. If additional material is required after construction
is complete on the lagoon, the contractor and owner will negotiate on the price and location of the borrow
area.
It should be noted that certification of the lagoon will depend upon all specifications being met.
Important items include length, width, depth, slopes, topsoil placement, correct elevations (top, bottom,
discharge pipes), and seeding.

NOTE: The acres listed in Table 2 were determined by (please mark appropriate box) one of the
following methods: [ ] using 70% of available acreage, or [ ] using measurements and
calculations found on the irrigation design worksheet. This accounts for required buffers, filter strips
along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application
rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field are most likely more than those
shown in table 2.
The nitrogen balance shown in table 2 should be equal to or less than 0 to fully utilize the nutrients
produced by the swine production on this farm. To produce crops at the RYE`s shown may
require the use of commercial fertilizer to balance fertilization rates in crop rotations. This farm is
producing 6,739.20 lbs. of nitrogen per year in the waste water and an additional 1,048.32
lbs. of nitrogen accumulates annually as sludge. To land apply the liquid portion in an acceptable
manner requires the irrigation system to pump and spread 3,997,344.00 total gallons
annually. This involves spreading 147.21 acre -inches per year over the farms 60.40
total acres, or an average of 2.44 inches is to be applied, on average, to each acre
irrigated.

i, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN44J&V--'_--Ff— -Z_
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The
time required for the planned fluid Ievel (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due
to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (I) waste from animals and (2) excess
rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The
volume -of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and
from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor
to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert
of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a
permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation
must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or
stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such
as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal_ Methods of application
include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying
waste to prevent damage to crops_
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be precharged to 112 its capacity to prevent
excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the
lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging
is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after
initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of
waste (see attachment) before land application_
3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 42.9 as marked
by permanent marker. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 41.3. This temporary storage,
less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 117492 cubic feet or 878840 gallons.
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended
maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation
should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to
perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence
or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public
right-of-ways.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The
department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management, has
the responsibility for enforcing this law.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, roots,
brush, boulders, sod and rubbish, Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After
stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened
prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the
plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in
diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be
used as fill, The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in
thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with
the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction
will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is
not readily detectible. NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN
THE LINER SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed
using the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall
include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over I5 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10
acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Darn Safety Law. The height is defined as the
difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation.
® LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.6 ft.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS
INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT.
When area of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be overexcavated below finish grade to the
specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as
specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie - CL, SC, CH). REFER TO THE SOILS
INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS.
Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner
material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is
kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow
as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the
liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water
content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper
compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least
90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard,
the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted permeability of a clay liner, other than
the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The
sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an established pattern helps assure uniformity
in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is
the preferable type of compaction equipment.
j 11

The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using
some type of energy dissipator (rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional
construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification.
w
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section
in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials.
i
VEGETATION:
r All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of
vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should
be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the
recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be
established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS:
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 10 feet beyond the outside
toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

The waste from this swine production facility must be land applied at specified rates to prevent pollution +
of surface and/or groundwater. These rates are based on soil types of the land to be irrigated, the
RYE's of the soil, and the PAN required to efficiently grow the c crops in the fields where waste is
applied. This Nutrient Management Plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are required so that all plant
nutrient requirements can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing this plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Factors included are:
a. Always apply waste based on crop needs and the nutrient content of the waste.
b. Do not over apply nitrogen.
c. Soil types are important because of different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and water holding capacities.
d. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the ground is frozen either of
which could lead to surface runoff.
e. Consider wind conditions to avoid drift and down wind odor problems.
f. Waste can only be applied to actively growing crops or not more than 30 days prior to planting
a crop or to forages breaking dormancy.
This plan is based on waste being applied using irrigation. If the application method is changed, this
plan will have to be revised because nutrient content varies depending on how it is applied.
The estimated acres needed to apply the waste as described above is based on average analyses
for this type facility. Actual acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report
from your facility. This nutrient management plan, if followed, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 as adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified' operator. The enclosed form must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 9191733-W26.

Dear Mr. Shiver,
We request that the Department of Environmental Management ("DEM") determine
whether National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") permits are required
pursuant to 40 C.F.R. § 122.23, for two Pender County hog facilities currently under
construction. The two separate hog operations will house approximately 4,600 sows and
46,000 piglets near Johnson Town and Watha, established African -American communities
in Pender County. The first operation, owned by independent operator Craig King, will
be located on approximately 473 acres. King plans to build two hog confinement buildings,
housing approximately 1,200 sows and 12,000 piglets. The second location, owned by a
contract operator for Murphy Farms whom we believe to be Steven Johnson Cashwell
and/or Geraldine Johns Cashwell, will be located on approximately 80 acres. The Cashwell
operation will house about 3,400 sows and 34,000 piglets.

We believe NPDES permits are necessary in these instances because the proposed
facilities will produce massive quantities of waste. Due to the volume of waste involved,
there is a high probability that it will enter the waters of the state through ditches and
irrigation runoff. A non -discharge permit is insufficient to prevent surface water
contamination by hog waste. Consequently, we request that your office, in compliance with
15A NCAC 02H.0123, conduct an on -site inspection of the proposed sites to determine if
NPDES permits are warranted. Moreover, we request that you provide us with copies of
your inspection reports and final decisions concerning whether NPDES permits are
required.
Additionally, in light of the proximity of the proposed hog operations to the
residents of Johnson Town and Watha, we request that DEM prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement LEIS"). This environmental review is necessary since the operations may
adversely impact residents in the area, and may adversely affect the nearby bodies of water

due to the disposal of large volumes of hog waste. Moreover, the sites may include
wetlands. Should you decide that an EIS is not necessary, we would appreciate a written
explanation of the bases for that decision.
Thank you in advance for your attention to this natter. Because construction on
the King and Cashwell operations has begun, we seek expeditious review and action on this
request. If you have any questions, please call Deborah Van Dyken at [phone].
