Lovelea Farm Revised 11/17 George Smith Narrative of Operation Lovelea Farms is currently permitted for 600 dairy cows, 200 heifers and 50 calves. Mr. Smith desires to expand to an additional 600 dairy cows. The expansion will occur across the highway from the current facility. No changes in animal types, numbers or management is occurring on the existing portion of the dairy, which the current waste plan developed in 2013 addresses. This revision is for an additional 600 milk cows whose waste will be stored in a newly constructed waste storage pond. Lovelea farms plans to construct a new milking center along with free stall barns across the highway from the existing dairy in the near future, (3 -5 yrs.) In planning for future expansion the farm constructed a new waste storage pond, (referred to as WSP 2), in the summer of 2017. Pond designed & constructed to NRCS specifications. This storage pond is designed and constructed to store waste from 600 milkers for 8 months. WSP 2 is also designed to store wash down water, sand that is not captured by sand separator and rainfall up to 25 yr. / 24 hr. storm. Refer to attached designs and spreadsheet calculations for specific volumes. WSP 2 is to be used to store the waste for up to 500 heifers until such time that milking center is constructed and operational. Once new milking center constructed, old portion of dairy will remain in production, housing heifers, calves and dry cows. The old milk parlor will be closed down. Lovelea farm has been informed at such time when new parlor is being constructed, the waste management plan is to be reviewed and necessary changes are to be incorporated into new revised waste plan to reflect changes in production and / or management. Waste generated from the cows and heifers is stored in waste storage pond 1. Waste storage pond 1 was designed and approved by NRCS in 1993. Farm has installed a sand separator to trap a majority of the sand used as bedding to reduce the amount of sand entering the storage pond. The trapped sand is stockpiled, allowed to dry and reused as bedding in the freestalls. Sand that is not captured by the separator and enters the waste pond is periodically removed by trackhoes and land applied or stockpiled to be re -used as bedding. The farm usually follows a standard rotation of no -till corn silage followed by no - till small grain for silage. In order to provide the producer with the most flexibility and still meet the waste management plan requirements various other crops are included in the waste management plan. This allows the producer to plant crops other than corn and small grain in the event weather conditions or management decisions change without having to have the waste plan revised. The waste management plan has determined that the farm has excess land to apply animal waste and a deficit of nitrogen is being produced. Currently the farm has access to 745 acres of land to land apply animal waste. PLAT determinations have determined that all fields in the waste management plan have a low or medium rating. Therefore this plan is nitrogen based. Tillage radish along with small grain is sometimes used as a winter cover, since tillage radish is considered a new crop and has limited research on amounts of nitrogen it can utilize, a maximum PAN rate is 30 lbs. /acre. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Producer: Lovelea Farms George Smith Location: 2750 Jersey Church Road Lexington, NC 27292-8162 Telephone: 336-240-7853 Type of Operation: Dairy Number of Animals: 1450 Head (Design Capacity) The waste from you 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 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 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 15A NCAC 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. 1 Lovelea Farm Waste Production Current Permitted Animals 600 milkers x 76 lbs. of PAN /animal /yr. = 45,600 lbs. PAN/yr. 200 heifers x 55 lbs. of PAN /animal / yr. = 11,000 lbs. PAN /yr. 50 calves x 18 lbs. of PAN / animal /yr. = 900 lbs. PAN / yr. Expanded Amounts 600 milkers x 76 lbs. of PAN / animal / yr. = 45,600 lbs. PAN / yr. Total (current & expanded PAN)=103,100 lbs. PAN / yr. Normal crop rotation of corn silage & small grain sillage. Corn silage (using MeB2 soil, has lower PAN rate) = 117 lbs. PAN / ac. X 745 (available acres) = 87,165 lbs. PAN utilized. Small grain silage (MeB2 soil) = 95 lbs. PAN / ac x 745 acres = 70,775 lbs. PAN utilized. 87,165 lbs. + 70775 lbs. = 157,940 lbs. PAN—103,100 lbs. generated =-54,840 lbs. deficit of PAN. The predominant soil type is Davidson (DdB) and has a higher PAN & yield than the MeB2 soils. MeB2 used to show that application amounts were on the conservative side. 103,100 lbs. PAN /yr. / (117 lbs. + 95 lbs.) = 212 lbs. Pan /ac/yr. =487 acres required to land apply waste based on RYE. Total of 745 acres are available for land application.

The contractor was very through with compaction of the structure and the liner using S&ME soil lab techs on site for much of the building process. Moisture and compactive efforts meet NRCS standards as documented. Soda Ash additive was applied at the specified rates to both lifts of the clay liner with technical inspection assistance from NRCS Geologist, Kim Kroeger. Lloyd Phillips, of Davidson SWCD was the lead construction inspector on this project, and detailed notes were maintained throughout the process. By the owner's request, the contractor was allowed to build the structure slightly larger and the embankment broader than designed, while still being acceptable to the design. The storage volume increased somewhat from 479,100 cu.ft. to 496,100 cu.ft., or the equivalent of adding about 20 more head of cattle. The silage leachate system has been adjusted within acceptable parameters to fit additional concrete and grading work that was done by the landowner to improve silage handling and to better control leachate collection and storm runoff. The outlet of the leachate pipe enters the pond in the NE corner with the invert elevation one foot below the "start pump" marker.

GEORGE SMITH WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN WASTE APPLICATION WINDOWS Animal waste may be applied to small grain crops and tall fescue during the months of December, January and February, provided that the soil is not frozen or saturated. If weather conditions or forecast indicate severe weather in the immediate future, all applications or plans to apply animal waste are to be terminated immediately. Waste applications are not to resume until favorable weather conditions returns. Any animal waste applications to small grain or tall fescue during December, January, or February are to be light application to prevent runoff and potential damage to existing crops, (excessive equip, traffic, and smothering crop). Small grain and tillage radish may be used as a fall cover crop. Maximum P.A.N. rate is 30 Ibs/ac.

Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains In the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Plant 1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 3/4 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage. Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs nitrogen per ton of expected yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and expected yield. Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential in profitable corn silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest.

Repair or replace as needed. Diversions, filter strips and buffers should be inspected to insure that vegetation is adequate and diversion capacity is adequate. Land Application Equipment - Shall be inspected before use to insure that equipment is working properly and that no leaks to tanks or box spreaders occur. Hose, pumps and pipes used with liquid spreader tanks and irrigation systems are to be checked before each use and repair or replace as needed. Waste Storage Structures - Check for floating or lodged debris in lagoons and storage ponds. Embankments of storage pond and lagoon are to be checked for stumps, bulges, wet or damp areas, and rodent damage on backside of dam. Vegetation should be adequate to prevent erosion. Bare areas should be seeded to fescue. Vegetation should be clipped a minimum of once per year to prevent trees and undesirable vegetation from becoming established. This can be done by either mowing, spraying or chopping. Pipes used to convey waste from buildings to storage pond or lagoon need to be inspected for separation of joints, cracks or breaks and salt/mineral accumulation. Bent Supports (pipe cradles) should be inspected to prevent sagging of pipes. When repair or replacement is needed replace with pressure treated posts and boards. Pipes should extend into the waste pond beyond the toe of bank slope or install rock rip rap and filter cloth on toe of slope. Pastured Areas - Maintain vegetation to prevent erosion. Hay rings and feed troughs should be located as far as possible from steep areas and watercourses such as creeks, streams and ponds. Rotate hay rings and portable troughs as animal waste accumulates. Waste is to be removed from area and land applied at agronomic rates. For areas where fencing along creeks have been installed, inspect fence to insure that animals do not have access to creek. WASTE STORAGE POND OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN For George Smith Dairy, Davidson Co., NC The storage pond is composed of two volumes. The lower 8_1 feet of depth in the pond is the waste storage volume. The remaining depth of the pond to the emergency spillway level is storage for a 25 year, 24 hour rainfall that enters the pond. The elevation to start pumping out the waste storage is 652.1 and will be marked with a permanent marker. In order to maintain the designed storage volume, the pond must be pumped out completely every 8 months, or more frequently with heavy rains. Take special care not to damage the clay liner while pumping. The nutrient management plan shall be strictly followed when land applying the waste. This requires samples and testing of waste before application. Waste shall be applied on fields as shown on included soils maps. Safety An exclusion fence entirely surrounding the completed structure must be maintained for human safety and to prevent livestock form walking on the dam, therefore preventing a hazard to the livestock and damage to the dam and its protective vegetation. WARNING: Animal waste storage pits can accumulate deadly odorless, toxic gasses. The included silage leachate may also increase the possibility of toxic gas accumulation. Always prevent children from playing near this facility, and ensure workers use caution and take appropriate precautionary measures when approaching it for maintenance. Maintenance The routine maintenance of this waste storage pond involves the following: 1. After emptying the pond, ensure there is a minimum of liquid remaining covering the clay floor liner at all times sufficient to prevent it from drying and cracking (the exposed inside side slope liner is protected from drying by a six-inch layer of lesser plastic soil). 2. Maintenance of a vegetative cover on embankment and in the emergency spillway. The specified grass cover is to be established and maintained on these areas. Beginning the year after construction and each year thereafter, the embankment and emergency spillway should be fertilized with 1000 pounds of 10-10-10 per acre to maintain a vigorous stand. 3. Control of weeds, brush, and trees on the embankment and in the emergency spillway. This shall be done by mowing, spraying, or chopping, or a combination of all three. This should be done twice each year. Only use chemicals according to their labeling. 4. Frequently check the liquid level to ensure adequate storage remains below the "start pump" marker, especially during hurricane season. 5. Inspect the surrounding exclusion fence and make any necessary repairs in a timely manner. NRCS NC Area 2 Rev. 5-18-16 Routine Inspections Maintenance inspections of this waste storage pond should be made during the initial filling, and at least annually, and after every major storm. Items to be checked include, as a minimum, the following: 1. Emergency Spillway for a. erosion or sedimentation b. weeds, small trees, logs, fences or other obstruction or damage to the vegetation that could reduce channel capacity, block flow, or encourage erosion. 2. Embankment for a. settlement, cracking, holes or depressions. b. side slope stability, slumps or bulges c. erosion d. rodent damage, especially ground hog burrows e. seepage or other leakage f. condition and type of vegetative cover Any problems with the structure should be addressed to the NRCS for repair recommendations. Silage Leachate Maintenance The ditch that carries silage leachate runoff from trench silos to the leachate collection system must be maintained with a minimum bottom width of 2 ft. and depth of 6 inches with sides no steeper than 2:1 f/f. Any erosion problems, impairment to the banks or damaged vegetation should be addressed promptly to prevent spillage or clogging of the collection system due to sediment. The ditch channel may be maintained as earthen, rock lined, or mowed vegetation as long as erosion is not a problem and the flow remains unimpeded. The gravel -filter Leachate Collection Pit must be periodically inspected and cleared of sediment, silage solids and debris — especially after storm events. The filter gravel in the pit should be replaced as needed to maintain proper function and collection of leachate liquid. The surface of the gravel should be maintained level and flush with the ditch and outlet channels. Only washed gravel of an appropriate size should be used. In no case shall ABC or "Crusher -run" be used. A flat pressure -treated board placed within the gravel directly over the intake pipe will prevent accidental pipe damage during gravel replacement operations. In the concrete Leachate Separator pan, ensure that the pipes are in good condition, and remove any accumulated debris. Maintain a coat of exterior, PVC -compatible paint on all exposed portions of the PVC pipes to prevent UV degradation of the plastic. Ensure the outlet pipe is clear and flowing to the waste storage pond as designed. Inspect the overflow spreader and filter area for erosion or damaged vegetation, and make repairs as needed. If a significant portion of the vegetation appears to be "burned" from high acidity, report it immediately to the NRCS to make any needed adjustment to the outflow/leachate balance. The Vegetated Filter Area below the silage collection system must be maintained in good condition. Maintain a vigorous vegetative cover and remove any stored farm equipment and scrap from the area. If the vegetation along the flow path begins to appear bleached or "burned" from excessive leachate acidity, notify the NRCS for assistance in adjusting the leachate NRCS NC Area 2 Rev. 5-18-16 separator pipes to improve the leach ate/ra i nwate r ratio that is allowed to overflow onto the filter area. And, ensure that the gravel filter in the Leachate Collector is clear of any sediment and debris. Improving capacity in the Waste Storage Pond. The accumulation of rain water runoff from the silos, which occupies storage space within the waste storage pond, can be significantly reduced by careful management of the trench silos. Cover the new silage piles such that any runoff from the tarps drains outside the silos as much as possible and harvest the silage crops below the 70% moisture level whenever practical. NRCS NC Area 2 Rev. 5-18-16 Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management i. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, storical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). s. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. s. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet 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, drainage ways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from wash down 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. 2o. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production.

Calibration of your spreader is a simple and effective way of improving utilization of nutrients in manure more effectively. Only by knowing the application rate of your spreader can you correctly apply manure to correspond to your crop needs and prevent water quality problems through the over application of animal manure. ` Applicators can apply manure, at varying rates and patterns, depending on forward travel and/or PTO speed, gear box settings, gate openings, operating pressures, spread widths and overlaps. Calibration defines the combination of settings and travel speed needed to apply manure, beddinQ or wastewater at a desired rate and to ensure uniform application. V Spreader Capacity Liquid spreader capacities are normally rated by the manufacturer in gallons. Multiply by 0.0042 to get tons. Solid and semi -solid spreaders are rated by the manufacturer either in bushels or cubic feet (multiply bushels by 1.24 to get cubic feet). !✓lost spreaders have two rating capacities: (1) struck or level full, and (2) heaped. Calibration of solid manure spreaders based on its capacity (volume) is difficult to estimate accurately because the densiiv of solid and semi -solid manures are quite variable. Density is the weight of the manure per volume of manure ( pounds per cubic foot). MMlanure density varies depending on the type and amount of bedding used as well as its storage method. Therefore, if you estimate spreader application rates as the volume of the manure the spreader holds you are overlooking the fact that some manure weighs more than other manure. This can cause a significant error when calculating manure application rates. Since manures and litters have different densities, an on -farm test should be done. To determine the load (tons) of a manure spreader: 1. Weigh an empty 5-gallon bucket. 2. Fill the bucket level full with the material to be spread. Do not pack the material in the bucket but ensure that it settles similar to a loaded spreader. 3. Weigh the bucket again. Subtract the empty bucket weight from this weight to calculate the weight of the contents. ` 4. Multiply weight of contents by 1.5 to calculate pounds per cubic feet, density.

Multiply the manure density by the cubic feet capacity of the spreader and divide by 2000 to get the tons of material in a spreader load. Spreader load (tons) = `°Oight of 5 gal manure x 1.5 x spreader caoaciry ($ ' ) 2000 Solid and Semi -Solid Manure Spreaders In order to calibrate a spreader for solid manure (20 percent or more solids), the following materials are needed: 1. Bucket ?. Plastic sheet, tarp or old bedsheet. An even size, 8 feet by 8 feet. 10 feet by 10 feet, or 12 fee,. - by 12 feet, will make calculations easier. 3. Scales Calibration method. - Locate a large and reasonably smooth, flat area where manure can be applied. 2. Spread the plastic sheet, tarp or bed sheet smoothly and evenly on the ground. �. Fill the spreader with manure to the normal operating level. Drive the spreader at the normal application speed toward the sheet spread on the ground, allowing the manure to begin leaving the spreader at an even, normal rate. 4. Drive over the sheet at the normal application speedand settings while continuing to apply manure. If a rear discharge spreader is used, three passes should be made: first. drive directly over the center of the sheet, the other two on opposite sides of the center at the normal spreader spacing overlap. J. Weigh the empty bucket and plastic sheet, tarp, or blanket. 6. Collect all manure spread on the sheet and place it into the bucket. 7. Weigh bucket and manure and subtract the weight of the empty_ bucket and ground sheet. This will give you the pounds of manure applied to the sheet. 8. Repeat the procedure three times to Qet a reliable average. 9. Determine the average weight of the three manure applications. z . r. �x Y3, N.� _a. is .- Z l :$ :. `• ii:..-..;... �.'F� the"following _._ .; i. + fomiifla o>cTable-8. 10: Calculate the application rate using lb manure collected x 21.78 Application rate (tons/acre) = sheet length (ft) x sheet width (ft) Ana; 11.

Travel spied (mph) _ Spreader Pattern Uniformity 3 tons x 495 6 min x 20 ft x 4 tonsvacre = 3.1 moh To determine the uniformity of spread and the amount of overlap needed, place a line of sma!l pans or trays equally spaced (2 to 4 feet) across the spreader path. The pans should be a minimum of 12 inches by 12 inches (or 15 inches in diameter), but no more than 24 inches by 24 inches; and 2 inches to 4 inches deep. Make one spreading pass directly over the center pan. Weigh the contents caught in each pan or pour the contents into equally sized glass cylinders or clear plastic tubes and compare the amount in each. The effective spread width can be found by locating the point on either side of the path center where manure contents caught in the containers is half of what it is in the center. The distance between these points is the effective spreader width. The outer fringes of the coverage area beyond these points should be overlapped on the next path to ensure a uniform rate over the entire field. "Flat -top," "pyramid," or "oval' patterns are most desirable and Eve the most uniform application. "NI," "W," "steeple;" or 'Topside" patterns are not satisfactory and one or more of the spreader adjustments should be made.
