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 acre 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 are 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 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. 3/18/03 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ALL WASTE - SCRAPED LOT AND LOT RUNOFF - OLD DAIRY LOT Amount of Waste Produced Per Year: STOCKER CATTLE @ 550 lbs. avg. weight) 500 animals x 4 (galldaylcow) x 365 (number of days) x 100 (% confinement time) = , 730,000 Gallons of wastelyear.

The Winston-Salem Regional Office has determined that no further enforcement action will be taken by the Division for the inadequate freeboard. However, upon review and consideration of the information submitted, the Winston-Salem Regional Office has determined that a Notice of Violation (NOV) is appropriate due to freeboard less than the structural limit. In the future, please continue to evaluate ways to maintain freeboard levels in the required range. These methods include, but are not limited to, water conservation practices, adding additional application sites, updating your cropping systems, adding additional and/or more flexible application equipment, and maintaining the lagoon levels at the lowest allowable and appropriate levels throughout the year. Our staff looks forward to continuing to work with you and your Technical Specialist to evaluate and implement any needed changes to your system. Thank you again for your cooperation.

Langley, Watershed Conservationist Guilford SWCD 3309 Burlington Road Greensboro, NC 27405 (336) 375-5401 x3 Division of Water s o - alealem RegionalOffice: 336 608 As part of a registered and certified animal operation, this holding pond must be properly closed out and certified "closed" in order to remove the structure from the DWQ's list. If not closed, the structure must be maintained and be inspected annually by DWQ personnel. This structure was designed and certified by SCS personnel when originally constructed. ICE NRCS or SWCD personnel must be onsite while holding pond is being cleaned out in order to certify the structure has been properly closed. This holding pond was constructed in early 1981, for 120 calves and 85 replacement heifers for the milk herd. The pond is an excavated pit, and has no dam. The operation was registerd with DWQ as part of a 1,100 Beef Cattle Operation. There have been no animals on the site for approximately one year. There are no pipes feeding into this pond. There was a push off ramp only. The farm was sold in December of 2000. The former owner is responsible for the closure and cleaning out of the holding pond. Pumping, or a combination of pumping liquid and excavating sludge is the most practical way of removing waste. Liquid removal: The holding pond is 125 feet wide by 70 feet long. The capacity at 8' deep is 277,261 gallons. The total amount of water must be pumped out if holding pond is full. The liquid must be irrigated or pumped into a tank or truck spreader and spread onto a crop or grass Sludge to be removed The remaining depth of the sludge may range from 1.5 - 2.0 feet. The approximate volume of sludge to be removed is approximately 8,893 cubic feet or 66,520 gallons. This sludge may be scooped out of the holding pond using typical earth moving equipment such as a tracked loader or dragline/backhoe. Agitate & Pump Method: One option for removing both the liquid and sludge can be to agitate and pump until all liquid containing sludge is removed. Fresh water may have to be introduced into the pond until sludge is removed as completely as possible. It may take 20 -25% more water to flush the pond completely. LAND APPLICATION OE.WASTE The holding pond will be closed after February 15, 2001. The effluent will be applied on fescue and orchardgrass hayland not to exceed 200 pounds of Nitrogen per acre. This will require less than 1 acre to properly apply the liquid effluent at this rate. However to apply the liquid at the rate of 1 inch per acre, 10.2 acres will be required. This will apply nitrogen at the rate of 3.5 lbs. / acre. Field 4 may be used to apply the sludge. There is more than enough acres in this 50 acre field to apply the waste. See Table 1 below. H4--C W-1I%iI•P61 The holding pond liquid will be pumped out and irrigated onto the grass field to'remove as much water as possible. The bottom will be allowed to dry as much as possible. The liquid tested at 0.13 lbs of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) per 1000 gallons. This is a total of 36 lbs of PAN. Therefore less than 1 acre will be required for irrigation. However, there is approximately 10.2 acre/inches of liquid (277,261 gallons + 27,154 gallons per acre/inch). It is recommended to irrigate at 1 inch per acre. Therefore, 10.2 acres will be required. All sludge will be removed using a tracked loader or dragline. This sludge will be removed to a depth as determined at the site by the technical specialist (approximately .5' - 2.0') and 3" to 4" of the clay soil will be removed. The soil will be spread so that it can be vegetated according to NRCS. specifications. The sludge will be applied in a manner not to exceed the hydraulic loading capacity of the soil and not to exceed the crop nitrogen requirements. Once all the sludge is removed, the owner has the option of using the structure as a fresh water pond, or the pit may be filled. All disturbed areas must be vegetated to meet all requirements of NRCS Standard 342, ' Critical Area Treatment. CLOSURE OF THIS OPERATION MUST BE DONE WITHOUT ANY RUNOFF OR DISCHARGE OF THE EFFLUENT. DO NOT LAND APPLY WHILE RAINING OR WHEN THE GROUND IS SATURATED. AVOID IRRIGATING PRIOR TO PREDICTED RAIN. IT IS AGAINST STATE LAW TO ALLOW A DISCHARGE INTO SURFACE WATERS OF THE STATE. 2 • • ALL DISTURBED AREAS WILL BE VEGETATED ACCORDING TO NRCS STANDARDS. NRCS Seeding specification as f4lLows: Prepare a seedbed and apply lime at 2 tons per acre, fertilize using 1000 lbs. of 10-10-10 (or equivalent) and seed all disturbed areas using 60 lbs of KY-31 Fescue (or other approved plant or mixture). Mulch using 100 bales per acre of straw mulch. WASTE ANALYSIS Liquid = .13 lbs PAN11000 gallons (PAN = Plant Available Nitrogen) Sludge =1.4 lbs PAN11000 gallons (See attached waste analysis report dated 21812001) Apply liquid to grass hay field (field # 4) at 1 inch depth. There are 277,261 gallons or 10.2 acre -inches of liquid to be applied and contains 3.5 lbs N per acre -inch. Apply sludge to the crop (field #1) at one inch depth. There are 67,320 gallons of sludge to be removed and spread, which is 2.47 acre -inches and contains lbs. of N per acre -inch.

DEC 12 1999 Officg Senate Bill 1217, 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.
