Section S: Odor Control plan
Odor control will be accomplished by maintaining condition which do not lead to odor
formation. Daily processing of mortalities will serve to minimize odor because well -
operated composting facilities have minimal odor. In addition, the remote location and
large size of the site will serve to minimize any impact from odors on adjacent property
owners even with prevailing winds and seasonal variations.
See attached Google Earth image. Source 1,2, and 3 are all potential sources of odor.
These are our 3 composting buildings where manure and mortalities are unloaded and
mixed_ Active compost rows are contained in these buildings along with finished
product.
As discussed above, this facility is on the same property as our layer farm on a very
remote and rural site. Since operation began in 2005, to our knowledge there has been no
odor complaints. In the event of an odor complaint, all required date will be documented
including date, time, site conditions, weather conditions, wind direction, and
characteristics and intensity of odor. The complaint will be investigated onsite and
offsite and action will be taken depending on the findings. The complex, manager will be
contacted along with Wes Spray. Documentation will be sent to both. Odor complaint
records will be kept for 3 years.
Operators and technicians will be trained on how to properly layer mortality composting
bins to achieve the correct C:N ratio and moisture levels_ Incoming feedstock will be
layered or Windrow as soon as possible to prevent odor.. Windrows and buns will be
turned as prescribed in the operation plan-

Permit Number SWC-48-01
Prepared for
ROSE ACRE FARMS
HYDE COUNTY EGG FARM
RST Engineering PLLC
October 2010

introduction:
Rose Acres Farms is requesting renewal and modification of Permit Number 48-
01 which was issued for the composting facility to serve their Hyde County Egg
Farm. The requested modification is the covering of two of the concrete pads
that have been installed for layer houses, Pad #1 and Pad #14 with "hoop barns"
so that they may be used for manure management. No request for increasing
the flock size is being made. This modification was approved by letter dated
September 23, 2010, and this application will provide drawings and
documentation for the planned construction, The proposed layer
farm will ultimately include fourteen poultry houses, manure composting/storage
houses, grain and meal storage silos, a maintenance shop, a truck and car
parking area, and an egg -processing house. A feed mill has been placed on the
site. The nominal maximum capacity of the poultry houses is 4,000,000 layers.
The actual number on site will be less due to United Egg Producers flock
reduction policies.
The proposed pullet farm will ultimately include 3 pullet houses with a planned
nominal capacity of 710,000 birds and a covered manure storage house.
Permit Application
A copy of the aerial photograph showing the required information was attached to
the original application and is included by reference.
A fetter from Hyde County addressing local Zoning was attached to the original
application and is included by reference-
SITING/DESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR SOLID WASTE COMPOST
FACILITIES (see15A NCAC 13B ,1404)
Rose Acres Farms proposes to build a composting facility to serve the Hyde
County Egg Farm. Waste to be composted will consist primarily of the manure
generated at the layer farm and pullet farm that will comprise the total Egg Farm
operation. Title 1 aA Subchapter 13B of the North Carolina Administrative Code
Section .1402 (f) (3) describes the material being composted at Rose Acres,
indicating that the proposed facility is a Type 3 facility.
The site is owned by Rose Acre Farms and will meet, at the time of permitting
and continuously thereafter the following conditions (see section (a):
V

(1) The site is not located within a 100-year floodplain. See the site maps
provided with this application.
(2) A 100 foot buffer will be maintained between all property lines and all
compost areas as shown on the site plans. The nearest property line is
approximately 400 feet.
(3) A minimum buffer of greater than 500 feet will be maintained between all
compost areas and residences or dwellings not owned by Rose Acres Farms.
See the site plans provided with this application. The nearest residence is
approximately 2,500 yards from the property.
(4) A 100-foot minimurn buffer will be maintained between all wells and compost
areas, The closest existing well is over 500 feet away. If additional wells are
constructed, the 100-foot minimum buffer will be maintained.
(5) A 50-foot minimum buffer will be maintained between perennial streams/rivers
and compost areas. See the site plans provided with this application for location
of the nearest perennial stream or canal.
(6) The compost facility will meet the requirements of 15 NCAC 26.0200. A
storm water permit has been obtained for the facility and a copy of the approval
fetter is attached.
(7) None of the facility will be located over a closed out disposal area. See the
soil evaluation provided with this application-
(8) A 25-foot minimum distance will be maintained between compost areas and
swales or berms to allow for adequate access of fire fighting equipment. See site
plans.
(9) Ail composting will be, done in enclosed buildings and compost or feedstock
spills will be cleaned as indicated elsewhere in the application so that there will
be no discharge of fill materials into the waters or wetlands of the state, no
violation of the requirements of the N P D E S permit for the facility, and there will
be no non -point source discharges which violate any assigned water quality
standard.
(10) Groundwater Requirements will be met by providing anclosed buildings with
concrete floors upon which all composting and storage will be done. The floor
elevation will be located at least 24 inches above the seasonal high water table.
(c) The site meets the following design requirements:
(1) Public access to the site is limited by Rose Acres in that the layer farm has
limited access to insure control of poultry diseases. The compost facility itself will
be in closed buildings, further limiting public access.
(2) A sedimentation and erosion control permit application has been fled and a
Letter of Approval received, indicating compliance with the requirements of the
Sedimentation Pollution Control Law (15A NCAC 4).
3

(3) A site meets the requirements of the Air Pollution Control Requirements (15A
NCAC 2D) to minimize fugitive emissions and odors.
(4) The site layout and the operation plan that was submitted and approved
specify activities to minimize odors at the property boundary.
The following items are attached to the application in order to satisfy the
requirements of paragraph (b) of Part .1405-
Waste to be composted will consist primarily of manure generated at the layer
farm, manure generated at the pullet farm, and bird mortality from both farms.
Small quantities of eggshells, egg packing waste, or spoiled feed may also be
managed at the facility and added to the compost. Solids from the lagoon
handling egg wash water will be added to the compost if it becomes necessary to
remove them from the lagoon. Sawdust, wood chips, peanut hulls, wheat straw,
or other suitable bulking agents approved by the Division of Waste Management
will be utilized.
The site plan is attached.

The personnei required to operate the facility will have other responsibilities on
the egg farm as well. We anticipate approximately 2 to 3 man -days per week
being needed to operate the facility. Tasks which will be specifically done for the
composting operation and which require technician level employees include the
following:
Sampling and Analysis Technician -- daily temperature measurements and
inspection of the composting operation, including all record keeping
required by the operation plan
Equipment operator(s) — movement of manure into the facility, movement
of compost within the facility, and movement of finished composted
manure from the facility
4

Maintenance mechanics) -- maintenance of the mechanical equipment
and processes in the facility
Mortalities will be collected from cages daily by the farm staff. Mortalities
are identified by a person walking by each cage each day during the daily
walk-through inspection that takes place at ail Rose
Acres facilities.
There will be no regular operating hours when the facility is open to the public.
The facility will be open to receive manure or mortalities from the layer farm and
pullet farm on a daily basis. Details of daily operations including facility start up
and shut down are provided in the O&M manual included with the application for
a permit to operate the facility.
Neither mixed waste nor household hazardous waste will be received on the site_
This facility is enclosed so adverse weather will have minimum impact on
operation. All weather surfaces will be constructed around the facility to avoid
problems with periods of high rain. In the event of ice, snow, a hurricane or
hurricane like conditions, activity, including waste receipt, can be suspended until
the weather abates. The windrows will be large enough to self insulate during
periods of extreme cold.
General Operation Plan
More details are provided in the O&M manual that was submitted with the
application for a permit to operate.)
Manure from the pullet houses will be stored on the pullet farm site on a concrete
floor and under a roof until it is transferred to the composting facility. Initially,
manure from the layer houses was allowed to accumulate under the cages in the
houses for an estimated 14 months. With the additional manure handling space,
the manure will be removed from the houses much more frequently. The reason
for this is to reduce the amount that accumulates and to accomplish better vector
control Temperatures in the manure piles may exceed 150 degrees F during
storage, but the piles will not be turned and the dried manure will not be
completely composted.
The houses will be cleaned by removing the dried manure with a front-end loader
and transporting it to the composting facility, where it will be placed into windrows
for composting.
5

Dried manure from the layer houses will be composted in windrows that will be
formed as described under the design capacity discussion below. Each windrow
will be made up primarily of manure with finished compost and/or moisture added
as required to achieve active heating. No bulking agent addition is planned for
the manure composting process.
Temperature measurements in the windrows will be made in accordance with the
Sampling and Analysis procedures and the results recorded, Those procedures
will be outlined in the ❑&M Manual that is included with the application for a
permit to operate. After the temperature near the center of a windrow exceeds
131 degrees F the windrow will be turned with a self-propelled compost turner.
Mortality composting will take place in bins. The design of the bins will be further
discussed below. Mortalities from the layer houses and the pullet farm will be
collected daily and delivered to the composting facility in closed containers. At
the facility, the mortalities will be layered into the composting bins. The mortality
will be layered with manure, finished compost, straw, or sawdust/wood chips.
Details of the layering process will be provided in the O&M Manual.
The schedule of turning of the bins and windrows will be adjusted to meet the
Process to Further Reduce Pathogens standards. All parts of the: windrow must
be at 131 degrees F or higher for a minimum of 15 days. In the bins, the
temperature of 131 degrees F must be maintained in all parts of the bin_
Ventilation pipes may be added with each layer of bulking agent in the mortality
composting bins to reduce or eliminate the need for physically turning the bins.
The anticipated residence time in the bins is about two to three weeks with
additional time in the windrows. The compost will then be moved to the storage
portion of the facility where it will continue to cure until it is sold or is used in
further composting operations within the facility.
Material Transfer Management
Moving manure into the composting facility and moving finished compost out
creates the potential for spills of materials onto the ground or roadways. As a
standard operating procedure, any material spilled outside the walls of the
composting facility shall be immediately recovered. Spill management
procedures are outlined in the O&M Manual.
Finished: Compost Use
Finished compost from the facility will be sold to one or more third parties for use
as a soil amendment. The primary use of the material is, at this time, expected
to be as a soil amendment. Most sales are anticipated to be to hulk purchasers.
The name and address of each person receiving the finished compost will be
recorded along with the quantity of compost delivered and the date that the
delivery takes place. Each person purchasing compost will be given a copy of
ET

the most recent waste analysis, but will not be given any guarantee of the actual
nutrient content of the material they purchase.
Handling Off -Specification Material
In the event that testing shows that a batch of composted material does not meet,
the required quality standards, that material will be run through another
composting cycle by being set aside for use as an additive in composting fresh
mortalities_ It is anticipated that any off' -specification material that is reprocessed
in this manner will meet the desired specifications upon reprocessing. Material
that consistently fails to meet specs can be landfilled at a permitted municipal
solid waste landfill facility.
Handling Emergency Events
In the unlikely event of a spill of a significant quantity of compost or manure, the
spilled material will be immediately recovered by shoveling and sweeping the
material into containers to be delivered to the composting facility for processing.
To prevent rainfall from washing any spilled materials to the storm drainage
system far the site, no transfers will be allowed during rainfall events.
If there is a much higher than anticipated mortality rate, the safety factor in the
design of the composting facility may well allow the increased numbers of dead
birds to be handled in a normal manner. Based on the experience at other Rose
Acres facilities, it is anticipated that the composting facility could handle 45,000
mortalities per month on a short-term basis. If, in the event of some catastrophic
event at the facility, the number of mortalities overwhelms the capacity of the
compost facility, the mortalities may be shipped off site to a rendering facility or to
an approved landfill for burial. Disposal will be in compliance with the
requirements of NCGS 106-403.
Management of Vectors and Odors
Vector control will be achieved by maintaining the composting facility to prevent
creation of conditions which attract vectors. The manure brought into the facility
will be dry and reasonably stable because of the time it was retained in the layer
or pullet houses. Dry, partially stabilized material will not attract flies and other
insects readily. The internal temperatures in the piles will be high enough to
prevent insect infestation. Mortalities will be delivered daily to the facility in
closed containers, which limit access to vectors. Since all handling will be in an
enclosed building, vector attraction will be minimized. The end use of the
finished Class A compost will not create nuisance conditions or vector attraction
problems because of the stable nature of the material.
Odor control will be accomplished by maintaining conditions which do not lead to
odor formation. Daily processing of mortalities will serve to minimize odor
7

because well -operated composting facilities have minimal odor problems, in
addition, the remote location and large size of the site will serve to minimize any
impact from odors on adjacent {property owners,
No mechanical ventilation is planned for the composting facility, so any
emissions which do occur will be fugitive in nature and will not require any permit
There will be no point source of emissions and any air quality impacts from
particulate matter emissions is expected to be negligible.
Design Capacity
The Department of Poultry Science at NCSU has published a guidance
document entitled "Composting Poultry Mortality', Table 2 of this document is
entitled "Estimated Primary & Secondary Bin Capacity for Mortality Composting
per 1,000 Birds and Standard Size Units for Various Types of Poultry"_ This table
recommends 2.54 cubic feet of bin space per 1000 birds in the flock for layers
and 1.96 cubic feet of bin space per 1000 birds in the flock for pullets. Using
these recommendations and the design population of 4,000,000 layers and
710,000 pullets, the required bin space is 11,552 cubic feet. It is important to
note that the bird populations chosen for estimating the space requirement are
greater than will ever be on the site, creating a built in safety factor in the system
design. The same publication gives the typical weight of a typical layer at
maturity of 4 pounds. The HY-Line W-36 variety used at Rose Acre Farms has a
typical weight of 3.48 pounds at maturity, giving an additional safety factor of
15% in the estimated bin volume required.
The composting bins at Hyde County are located in Building 1 and Building 2.
The total bin volume in Building 1is 5,376 cubic feet and in Building 2 is 9,216
cubic feet. A Spreadsheet is attached which gives the calculations discussed
above,
Historical information taken from the period of July 1, 2009 through June 30,
2010 was used to estimate the total manure production, based on the original
population estimates of 4 million layers and 710 thousand pallets. Note again
that the assumed populations for the layer and pullet operations are greater than
will ever be experienced, providing a built-in safety factor in sizing the
composting facility. A spreadsheet is attached giving the calculations used to
estimate the space in the composting facility that is needed to compost the
manure. The amount of material composted per length of windrow was
calculated from operating data, and that factor is used in showing the capability
of the facility with the two new buildings in service. Note that while there is more
capacity for managing the manure produced, there is no request to expand flock
size. In the event that additional space ,is needed, an additional
composting/storage building can be constructed south of the shop building. The
location far this building, if it is needed, is shown by dashed lines on the attached
0

plans. Note that minor rerouting of the site drainage system will be required if the
building is ever constructed.
The composting facility will have three buildings. The original building is Building
1, the building to be constructed on Layer Pad 14 is Building 2, and the building
to be constructed on Layer Pad 1 is Building 3. This will increase the floor area
of the composting facility by 131,000 square feet. The additional space will be
used to store finished compost as needed to satisfy the local demand patterns,
and to allow more rapid removal and composting of manure from the layer
houses. The additional space will give the operator added flexibility in operation,
and the portions of each building used for composting and for storage will be
adjusted as necessary to optimize the operation of the facility,
The Process block flow diagram was attached to the original application and is
included by reference.
Storage of Bulking Agents for Composting
A bulking agent will be required for use in composting mortalities. The bulking
agent of choice will be sawdust or wood chips_ If an adequate supply of sawdust
is not available, wheat straw, peanut hulls, or locally available materials,
approved by the Division of Waste Management, will be used, Storage space for
20 cubic yards of material is available in composting Buildings 1 & 2. This will
provide a 1-month supply of bulking agent at normal use rates.
Finished compost may be used to mix with .bulking agent and dead birds and will
come from the storage piles in the composting building. Actual movement in and
out of the facility will be based on demand for the finished compost. The
historical demand patterns for the Finished compost demonstrated the need for
the additional storage and management space in Buildings 2 & 3. No additional
facilities will need to be constructed for handling mortalities.
Operating experience has shown that shredding is not necessary. Measuring
mixing and proportioning will primarily be done with a front-end loader or a
bobcat.
The composting process duration may be different for processing the mortalities
and processing the manure. The mortality process is anticipated to last no more
than 20 days in the composting bins. Past experience at other Rose Acre
facilities indicates that this time will allow complete composting of the mortalities
and will allow for 15 days at temperatures greater than 1310 F, needed for
compliance with the requirements for "Further Reduction of Pathogens". After
removal from the bins, the mortality compost will be then be added to the manure

windrows where it will continue to compost for another approximately 30 days,
The compost will then be moved to the storage portion of the facility where it will
continue to cure Until it is sold or is used in further composting operations within
the facility.
The composting process for manure in windrows is anticipated to last for
approximately 30 days. The compost will be mixed and turned at least 5 times
during this period to achieve 15 days where the temperature of the windrows
exceeds 1310 F in order to attempt to meet the requirements for "Further
Reduction of Pathogens". Finished compost from the storage areas of the facility
will be used to insulate the windrows as necessary. When it is removed from the
windrows, the compost will be moved to the storage area of the facility where it
will remain until it is sold.
Any non-compostable materials found, such as drink bottles, will be managed
through the farm solid waste management activities.
Each mortality bin and each windrow will be sampled at multiple locations and at
a frequency of at least 3 to 5 days per week to demonstrate that the PFRP time
and temperature requirements are met. Specific spatial and frequency details
are included in the facility O&M manual. A three or four foot compost
thermometer will be used to monitor temperatures.
Temperature monitoring and record keeping will demonstrate that the
temperatures in the bins and the windrows are maintained above 131 degrees F
for a period of at least 15 days and that the compost is turned at least five times
while the temperatures are above 131 degrees. If timeltemperaturelturning
requirements are not met pathogen sampling in accordance with EPAt6251R-
021013, Revised July 2003, will be used to demonstrate pathogen reduction.
Aeration for the windrows will be provided through mechanical turning using a
self-propelled compost turner, a front-end loader or a bobcat. Turning frequency
will be frequent enough to maintain adequate oxygen levels to sustain aerobic
biologic activity to maintain temperatures at appropriate levels.
Aeration for the bins will be through use of ventilation pipes inserted in each
straw layer in the bin if necessary, or through turning with a front-end loader or
bobcat. The typical layering in a mortality -composting bin is to place 6 inches of
sawdust or finished compost on the concrete floor. This is covered with 6 inches
of straw with ventilation tubes. This is covered by a layer of mortalities (about 136
birds or about 473 pounds, about 550 pounds of finished compost or dried
manure, and water, if needed to reach desired moisture levels. The bin is then
filled with alternating layers of straw (with ventilation tubes if needed) and the
mortality "recipe" until full. It is capped with a six-inch layer of sawdust or
10

finished compost. If ventilation pipes are not used, the compost must be turned
regularly. Rose Acres has found at Lincoln County that turning is not necessary
if the ventilation tubes are used.
The need for air emission control technologies is not anticipated. Maintaining
proper carbon to nitrogen ratios and proper oxygen levels should control odors.
Finished compost will be used to cover windrows if needed to control odors early
in the compost process when most of the volatile compounds are released.
Since the composting areas are covered there should be no problems
maintaining proper moisture levels in the compost. Maintaining proper moisture
levels will, in turn, prevent leachate production. The waste storage, composting
and curing areas are located on a concrete pad, which will eliminate vertical
movement of liquids to the soil or groundwater under the facility.
Runoff from around the buildings is controlled through a permitted storm water
control system. Runoff control structures are located as shown on the site plan.
There will not be any recycling facilities specific to the compost operation.
An information sheet will be used to provide information to agricultural users
about the quality of the compost. The information sheet will indicate
classification grade, recommended uses, adequate nutrient levels to enable
users to properly use the compost as a nutrient source. Any restrictions on use
will also be provided.
The original composting building, Building 1, is a "Hoop Barn" designed and built
by Coverall Building Systems, Inc. of Saskatoon, SK, Canada. This is the type
building being used at other Rose Acres Farms installations. The attached
drawings by RST Engineering, PLLC show the basic lay out and size of the
building, and the structural details are shown on the details provided by Dudek
Consulting and sealed by Robert Dudek, a North Carolina Professional
Engineer, Buildings 2 and 3 will be designed by Evergreen Engineering, based
in Eugene, Oregon and will be constructed by Eco-Builders, LLC. The plans For
these buildings are attached.

OPERATING PLAN
ROSE ACRE FARMS
HYDE COUNTY EGG FARM
COMPOST 1 STORAGE BUILDINGS

COMPOSTING OPERATION OVERVIEW
The purpose of the Rose Acre Compost Facility in Hyde County is to manage poultry
manure and mortality in a responsible manner that will minimize the possibility of any
adverse effects to the environment.
Manure from the pullet houses will be stored under roof on the pullet farm site until it is
transferred to the composting facility. Manure from the layer houses will be allowed to
accumulate under the cages in the laying houses, protected from the weather. Typically.
the manure will accumulate for approximately 3 to 6 months, but under some
circumstances could accumulate for up to 121-18 months as the system was originally
designed. The plies will not be turned and the dried manure will not be completely
composted while in the houses.
Mortalities from the layer mouses and the pullet farm will be collected daily and delivered
to the composting facility in closed containers. At the facility, the mortalities will be
layered into the composting buts as described in this text_
All mortalities and manure will be composted to meet the EPA Process to Further Reduce
Pathogens and Vector Attraction Reduction standards to minimize the possibility of the
spread of disease on or off the Hyde County Egg Farm.
RESPONSIBLE EMPLOYEES
The employees that will be responsible for and execute the handling of the manure,
compost, litter, the acquiring of necessary samples, maintaining sufficient inventory- of
sampling materials, maintaining all sampling equipment in proper working order,
finished compost, and mortalities are as follows:

DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of this operating manual litter shall be defined as manure from the pullet
or laying houses.
Bulking agent shall be defined as any material used as a carbon source for the mixture of
the compost, composting process, or hulk storage of raw materials.
Finished compost shall mean material that is ready to be delivered for use as an
agricultural supplement for the growing of a crop; garden, general horticultural, or other
public uses suitable for Grade A compost.
COLLECTION OF MATERIAL FOR COMPOSTING
As the manure drops from the bird it accumulates in the lower portion of the house. This
area, which is on a concrete floor above natural grade, is called the pit.
Periodically the manure must be removed from the pit, as it becomes full. In order to
accomplish removal activities, a small front end loader or a similar device will enter the
pit through a door between the pit level and the outside, and begin to scoop up manure.
The manure accumulates as cone -shaped rows under each row of hens. facilitating
systematic removal. The manure is removed mid placed directly into the bed of a dump
truck. Prior to being loaded in the truck, the manure will be visually inspected for the
presence of foreign materials, i.e_, materials that are not either manure or feathers.
Should foreign materials be found, they will be removed prior to placing the manure in
the bed of the dump track.
Any manure that falls to the ground outside the house or the pullet farm storage building
during manure removal and transfer shall be swept up either with a broom and dustpan or
with a shovel by the end of each work day or prior to significant rainfall. Manure will
not be transferred during periods of high rain or high wind.
The dump trucks, when full, will move the manure to one of the coznpostinglstorage
buildings. During transfer activities, three trucks will be weighed to determine the
average weight of manure comprising a load. This average weight will be multiplied by
the number of trucks loaded in a given day, and that figure will be recorded in the
appropriate column on the RAF Manure and Mortalities Transfer log.
During transport from the loading area to the composting building, the roadway will be
visually inspected for manure that came out of the truck during transport, Any manure
noted will be cleaned up by the end of that work day. The manure collected shall be
brought to the compost building and placed with the other manure transferred that day.
The manure shall be offloaded in the compost building to form windrows.
3

Manure transfers from the poultry houses shall be documented in the section under the
heading "Manure'. The date the transfer took place shall be indicated in the column
marked "Date". If the manure was transferred from the layer farm, an "L" shall be
placed in the column marked "Farm". If the manure comes from the pullet farm, a "P"
shalt be placed in the column marked "Farm"_ The numerical designation of the house
the manure was removed from shall be identified in the column marked "House". The
weight of manure in tons shah be recorded in the column marked "tons". The employee
making the transfer shall write their initials in the column marked "Empl. Initials" to
verify the transfer.
Mortality transfers shall be documented in the section under the heading "Mortalities".
The date the transfer took place shall be indicated in the column marked "Date". if the
mortalities were transferred from the pullet farm, then a "P" shall be placed in the column
marked "Farm'. If the mortalities were transferred from the layer farm, then an "L" shall
be placed in the column marked "Farm". The numerical designation of the house the
mortalities were transferred from shall be recorded in the column marked "House". The
number of mortalities and combined weight of the mortalities shall be recorded in the
columns marked V Birds" and "Weight". The combined weight of the mortalities is
critical in determining the proper amount of carbon to be mixed with the mortalities to
facilitate composting. The employee will place their initials in the column marked
"Emlil. Initials" to verify the transfer.
Completion of these forms creates a record of when manure or mortality are removed
from the individual houses and placed in the compost building and the quantity that is
moved.
MORTALITY COMPOSTING
When daily mortalities are transferrers from either the pullet farm or the layer farm the
pertinent information shall be recorded on the Mortalities Transfer Log as indicated in
this document.
The composting of mortalities shall follow the set of guidelines outlined below.
The mortality composting bins measure eight feet wide by twelve feet deep and are either
six or seven feet high. The bins in the original composting house are seven feet high and
the bins in the new composting houses are six feet high. At the entrance to each bin is a
small channel where 2" thick boards can be stacked edgewise, in order to contain the
amount of composted mortalities placed in the bin.
Each bin is assigned a number. Each bin is anticipated to be of more than adequate size
to contain all the mortalities that would be generated each day_ If space permits it is
permissible to place at least a portion of one day's mortalities on top the mortalities in
another bin to finish fitting that bin before moving on to the next bin.
4

In order to achieve complete composting of mortalities, the mortalities will have to be
mixed with some manure and bulking agent. Typically, bulking agent mixed with
mortalities will be comprised of manure and sawdust or straw. Bulking agent may also
include wood chips, yard waste, peanut hulls, cotton gin trash or other materials approved
by the Solid Waste Section. Finished or partially composted manure from the manure
windrows may be also be added to the bins,
The ratio of the weights of each ingredient will be adjusted to achieve complete
composting of the mortalities. The ideal composition is a C:N ratio of 25:I with a 45%
moisture content, A typical recipe, by weight, is one part dead poultry, 1.5 to 2.0 parts
manure from the layer or pullet houses and 111 D part straw or sawdust_ The mortalities to
be composted each day will be weighed to determine the basis for the day's mix of
ingredients_ Alternatively, the mortalities may be counted and a known average weight
used to calculate the basis for the day's mix of ingredients. Water will be added only if
necessary to achieve composting.
The typical layering in a mortality -composting bin is to place 6 inches of finished
compost on the concrete floor. This is covered with 6 inches of straw. Ventilation tubes
are placed in the straw layers if ventilation tubes are needed. Operating experience over
the past five years has shown that ventilation tubes are not normally needed. This is
covered by a layer of mortalities (about 136 birds or about 473 pounds). Next, about
6(six) inches of manure is used to cover the mortalities. Water, if needed, is then added
to reach desired moisture levels. The bin is then filled with alternating layers of straw
and the mortality "recipe" until full. It is capped with a six-inch layer of sawdust or
finished compost.
Aeration for the bins will be through the use of ventilation pipes inserted into each straw
layer in the bin as necessary. Two one inch pipes with holes that are at least (1 J4 ) inch in
diameter and spaced every (1-2)inches will be placed in each straw layer in each bin. In
the event additional aeration is necessary a front-end loader or bobcat will be used to turn
the bins.
Composted mortality will normally be transferred to manure windrows after they have
been in the bins at least long enough to achieve a minimum temperature of at least 131
degrees F for at least three consecutive days. Re -composting this material will further
reduce the possibility of any pathogens in the mortality surviving.
The composted mortality material will be layered into the manure windrow most recently
placed in the compost building. Finished mortality compost material may also be added
to the windrows and then turned in with the turner far incorporation into the windrow.
After initial heating, this windrow will be monitored and turned in keeping with normal
manure windrow practices.
If composted mortalities are to be sold, rather than added to the manure windrows, the
temperature and residence time in the bins will also meet the requirements of Compost
Rule _1406(11). Specifically, the bin temperatures will remain above 104 degrees F for a
total of at Ieast 14 days and the average temperature for that time shall remain above 113

degrees for that 14 day period. The three days at 131 degrees F is included in the 14 day
average. Temperature monitoring and record keeping will be continued during this
period to demonstrate that this standard has been met.
During the three day period when cornposi bin temperatures are to be above 131 degrees
F temperatures will be rnosutored in at least three locations and at two depths, in each bin.
Each temperature will be recorded. Temperatures may be monitored after three days
above 131 degrees to be sure the compost process is proceeding. If the mortality compost
is to be distributed directly to the public the bin temperatures will continue to be
monitored as noted above to demonstrate that the vector attraction reduction time and
elevated temperature requirements are net. The RAF Hen Mortalities Composting Log
shall be completed.
The finished mortality compost product will be sampled and analyzed_as required in 15
NCAC 13B.1408(a) before the compost is removed from the bin for distribution to the
public. Sampling will be done for pathogens, regulated metals, foreign matter and
nutrient levels. Samples collected from the bin in question will be assigned a specific
sample number in order to accurately track the analytical information pertinent to the
compost contained therein.. The sample number will be recorded in the columns marked
"Sample 4". The date the sample was collected and sent to the lab will be recorded in the
column marked "Date Sent to Lab". Samples are to be sent to the lab on the date they are
collected.
MORTALITY COMPOSUNG LOG
Composting of mortalities shall be verified by completion of the Mortality Composting
Log.
The date that mortatities are placed in the bin sisalI be recorded in the col umn marked
"Date". In the column marked "Farm/House", the farm the mortalities were transferred
from shall be designated by placing an "L" for mortalities transferred from the layer
farm, or a "P" for mortalities transferred from the pullet farm. Additionally, the
numerical designation of the Douse the mortalities were removed from shall be placed in
the same column.
The number of birds brought to the composting area shall be recorded in the column
marked "# of Birds". The numerical designation of the bin the mortalities are placed in
shall be recorded in the column marked "Bin #". The depth, in inches, to which the bin
is filled shall be recorded in the column marked "Depth in Bin". The date the
temperature of the compost in that specific bin initially rises to 131 degrees F shall be
recorded in the "131 Deg. Date" column. After reaching this temperature, the compost
shall be monitored for the following 3 days, and the temperature on each date shall be
recorded in the "24 Hour 'Temp.", "48 Hour Temp.", and "72 Hour Temp" columns.
Should the temperature fall below 131 degrees F, then the 3-day recording period will

start over after the bin temperature once again reaches 131 degrees F. The date the
composted mortalities are removed shall be recorded in the column mar-ked "Date
Removed"
Manure composting
The manure shall be offloaded in the compost building to form windrows. Each windrow
begins just beyond the mortality compost bins. Each windrow NO] be a maximum of 535
feet long in the original composting building (Building 1), 526 feet long in Building 2,
and 676 feet long in Building 3. The interior walls will have markings painted on therm
delineating the starting and ending point for the windrows, and shall also have markings
at various distances to enable the individual in control of manure placement to determine
the length of the windrow. As the composting process is completed, the finished compost
will be stored in one or more of the composting houses. In any given building, as the
area occupied by finished compost increases, the available area for constructing
windrows decreases. A miai murn separation of 30 feet will be maintained between any
finished compost storage and the active windrows to avoid potential cross -contamination
with pathogens. This will not create any operating or capacity problem as the area
available for composting and storage has increased by a factor of three, and there is no
projected increase in the number of chickens on site, so there will be no increase in
overall throughput of the composting facilities.
Generally, windrows will be formed by positioning the dump trucks where the windrow
is to begin or be continued, oponing the tailgate, lifting the bed, and driving down the
length of the building, dispensing manure as it proceeds, The individual in control of
manure placement shall indicate to the driver of the truck whether to speed up or slow
down in order to evenly dispense the manure along the windrow being formed.
Windrows will be formed that are approximately fourteen (1 4) feet wide at the base and 9
feet high measured fronn the Boor to the top of the windrow. Operating experience has
shown that each foot of windrow will contain about 1.21 tons of compost.
As the windrow portion of the building fills up it may be necessary to drop the manure in
the open area and use a front end loader to place the manure in the windrow. A small pile
of manure will be maintained in the vicinity of the compost bins for daily use in
composting mortality.
Alter reaching a temperature of 131 degrees F and maintaining it for 3 days, the wind
row will be turned. Each windrow will he maintained at temperatures at or above 131
degrees F for at least 15 days and during the period the windrows are above 131 degrees
each windrow will be turned five times. Each time the windrow is turned the date and
tinge will be recorded in the manure compost log. After the fifth turning, the compost
will be sampled and samples will be sent to the lab for analysis. if the analysis shows the
compost meets the requirements for a Grade A compost, the compost will be considered
ready for further distribution.
7

Compost temperatures will be monitored at least every three days during the 14 day
period the temperatures are at or above 131 degrees F for pathogen redaction. Prior to
turning the compost, the person in charge of that duty will check the internal pile
temperature to determine whether it is at or above 131 degrees F. Temperature testing
will be performed at approximately 25 foot intervals along the length of the windrow.
Sample points should be approximately one third of the height of the pile from the top.
The temperature will be measured 6-12 inches into the pile, and again 3-4 feet into the
pile. Each temperature and the depth to which the thermometer was inserted will be
recorded in the appropriate location in the manure compost log.
Aeration for the windrows will normally be provided through mechanical turning using a
self-propelled compost turner. A front-end loader or a bobcat will also be available for
turxung if necessary.
If areas are noted that are not at the minimum temperature of 131 degrees F, that
windrow will not be turned. Staff will then try to determine the reason the temperature is
low. If lack of oxygen is determined to be the problem the windrow may be turned more
often to keep oxygen levels up. If it is determined that a lack of moisture is the problem,
water may be added as necessary to maintain optimum moisture content in the compost in
order to sustain appropriate levels of aerobic biological activity. If water is needed it is
added through a pipe attached to the compost turning machine and is blended in as the
compost is turned_
If at any time during the turning process the temperature drops below the 131 degrees F
required the composting process shall begin again_ After a windrow has met the required
131 degrees F for 15 days turning frequency will be only what is necessary to maintain
adequate oxygen levels, sustaining aerobic biological activity to maintain temperatures at
appropriate levels.
MANURE COMPOSTING RECORD
The date each load is received shall be recorded on the line provided. The numerical
designation of the rove the manure is placed in is to be recorded in the space provided,
The person responsible shall record the numbers, in the space provided, to the nearest
foot marker, from the beginning and the end of the row created during that day's manure
placement activities.
Manure from the pullet farms will follow the same process as above except manure will be
delivered via a large dumpster. The pullet manure will generally be placed into the next
available open row for composting. Pullet manure may have a higher moisture content
than the layer manure. If higher moisture content is needed in the layer manure windrow
to sustain appropriate levels of aerobic biological activity, the pullet manure may be
incorporated into the layer manure.
0

Composting Other Materials
Any solids that must be removed from the lagoon handling egg wash water may be
composted at this facility. These solids will be added to new layer manure windrows
when they are created.
Broken eggs, egg shells, or eggs which do not meet company standards may also be
managed at this compost facility. These materials would also be added to new layer
manure windrows when they are created. This material may also be added to the
mortality bins for composting with the mortalities.
SAMPUNG PLAN
The purpose is to establish procedures for the collection of representative samples of
composted manure in a manlier that will not result in the contamination of the sample and
will allow accurate analysis of the sample for, pathogens, regulated metals, foreign
matter, and nutrient content. Foreign matter would be materials made of plastic metal, or
glass.
Compost sampling and analysis will be performed according to the guidelines outlined in
15 NCAC 138.1408(a)(1), NCAC 13B.1408(a)(2), and NCAC 13B.1408(a)(5). Samples
shall be collected for pathogens, regulated metals and foreign matter, at approximately
every 6,000 tons of compost produced, or each 6 month period, whichever comes first.
The equipment utilized for this shall be a 48 inch or a 40 inch dial head, probe type
thermometer, pre -sterilized plastic bags, a stainless steel sampler (a hand auger or tube
type sampler) that is a minimum of five feet in length, a staniless steel bowl, a stainless
steel trowel, and disposable rubber or latex gloves.
Disposable rubber or latex gloves will be worn while sampling or handling manure or
compost for analysis. The manure/compost pile will be sampled on a regular basis to
document the conditions of the compost and verify that the pathogen levels for the
composted material meet 15 NCAC 13B.1408(a) requirements. Material from the bins
shall only be tested if the compost is to be distributed and not re -composted with the
ntailure.
Prior to pathogen sample collection, all sampling tools will be cleaned with water and a
detergent by scrubbing with a brush and rinsing with clean fresh water. The sampling
tools will be cleaned between each sample and new disposable gloves will be used to
collect each sample.
Z5

Pathogen samples should be grab samples or a composite sample taken from no more
than I bin or windrow. This will make it easier to locate the source of contamination in
the event of a bad sample.
Samples will be collected using a clean stainless steel auger. The sample will be
collected from a point 6 inches into the pile to the depth of the auger. The entire sample
shall be placed into the clean stainless steel bowl and mixed thoroughly with the stainless
steel trowel. A representative quantity of the mixed sample will be transferred to a
plastic bag provided by the analytical laboratory. The bag will be immediately sealed
and marked with a sample identification number, the date and time of the sample, and the
sampler's name. Pathogen samples will be cooled to approximately 40 degrees F until
delivered to the lab. All samples collected will be transferred using standard chain -of -
custody procedures to the analytical laboratory for analysis.
The detection limit for the fecal coliform analysis should be less than one thousand nrpn
per grain and the detection lintit for salmonella must be less than 3 rnpn per 4 grarns.
Composite samples will be taken to be analyzed for regulated metals and foreign matter.
At least 1 sample will be taken from each manure windrow. The samples will be
maintained at approximately 40 degrees F until the 6 month or approximately 6,000 ton
period has been reached. At that time the samples will be mixed together and a
representative sample taken and sent for analysis,
Copper, cadmium, lead, nickel and zinc are the regulated metals to be tested for. The
total metal level (mg/kg) of each metal is to be determined by a Waste Analysis from the
NCDA Plant Waste Solution Section Lab or Other approved lab.
The foreign matter is determined by passing a dried weighed quantity through. a 114 inch
screen. Any foreign matter remaining on the screen shall be removed and weighed to
determine the percent by weight.
A composite sample shall be taken from each batch of compost to determine the nutrient
content. A batch is considered to be approximately 6,000 tons. Upon the designation of
a halch the required number ofsarnples ,+011 be taken, a composite sample formed 017d
this composite sample delivered to a laboratory for analysis. The size of each nutrient
sample should be the same.
Nutrients to be sampled for include at least nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium,
iron, magnesium, and sulfur. The nutrient levels will he determined by a Waste Analysis
from the NCDA Plant Waste Solution Section Lab or other approved lab.
All composite samples shall be combined in the stainless steel bowl and thoroughly
mixed with the stainless steel trowel. A sample of at least I kg shall be transferred to a
container- provided by the analytical. Iaboratory for analysis using standard chain -of -
custody procedures. The container will be sealed and marked with a sample
identification number, the date and time of sample, and the sampler's name. The
10

analytical laboratory shall test the sample using methods accepted by the North Carolina
State University Extension Service.
Prior to release of any composted mortalities for distribution other than to be
re -composted with the manure composting, a series of samples shall be collected from
each bin to determine that the compost meets the pathogen levels defined for CIass A
compost. Samples will be collected to reflect the total volume of the pile being
sampled. A sample shall be collected and analyzed for fecal caliform or salmonella
organisms as required to demonstrate compliance with the pathogen reduction standards
outlined in 15 NCAC 13B.1448. Additionally, these samples will be analyzed. to
determine the amount of metallic contaminants [cadmium, copper, lead., nickel, and zinc_]
and foreign matter present per 15 NCAC 13B. 1408.
MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION PLAN
Rose Acre Farms will create a Grade A compost. According to North Carolina Solid
Waste rule 15 NCAC l 3B.1497(d)(1), "Grade A compost shall have unlimited,
unrestricted distribution. This product may be distributed directly to the public".
It is the intent of Rose Acre Farms to work with the farmers and other users in the region
to properly use and distribute the compost that is generated from the farm in Hyde
County North Carolina. The sale and distribution to local users shall take place only after
the compost has completed its processing in the compost and storage facility at the Rose
Acre Farms site.
In order to assure that the best information is made available to those using the compost
for the many and varied uses of this Grade A compost each "batch' shall have an NCDA
Waste Analysis, or an analysis from a private vendor providing similar information,
performed on it within 90 days of its use.
Rose Acre Farms will request a nutrient management plan from any individual which
receives more than ten ( 1 d) tons per visit of finished compost.
It is also permitted to work with any local, county, state or federal government agencies
that may need a nutrient base for any projects they may be required to perform. For any
agency that would use the product, nutrient planning would be performed before delivery
or application.

CONTINGENCY PLANS
EQUIPMENT BREAKDOWN
Preventive maintenance will be performed on all equipment on a regular basis to lessen
the opportunity for an equipment breakdown. if however the equipment does break
down the required pate would be immediately ordered after determining the proper parts
required to make the necessary repairs. If a technician would need to be brought in then
that would be arranged.
If the turner is unable to be used due to equipment failure, and manure is scheduled to be
turned, then a small bobcat type loader or other suitable piece of equipment would be
used_ Turning of mortalities composted in a bin may be accomplished by hand, should no
suitable piece of equipment be available to turn it mechanically.
Odor- control will be accomplished by maintaining aerobic conditions and proper carbon
nitrogen -ratios in the compost bins and windrows. Mortalities and manure will be
processed daily. This will avoid putrefication of mortality. If odor does become a
problem ON can be adjusted with bulking agent, of finished compost can be placed aver
bins and windrows when formed to adsorb odors._ In addition, the remote location and
large size of the site will serve to minimize any impact from odors on adjacentproperty
owners.
HIGH WINDS/TORRENTIAL RAIN
In the event of high winds or torrential rains the main doors to the compost building
would be closed. Any transfer of manure would be lialted with the exception of manure
transferred from the pullet farm, which is transported in a closed container. Compost will
not be shipped off site if weather conditions would lead to the loss of material from
trucks.
VECTORS
Vector control will be achieved by maintaining the composting facility to prevent
creation of conditions which attract vectors. The manure brought into the facility will be
dry and reasonably stable because of the time it was retained in the layer or pullet
houses. Dry, partially stabilized material will not readily attract flies and other insects.
Internal temperatures in the piles will be high enough to prevent insect infestation.
Mortalities will be delivered daily to the facility in closed containers and promptly placed
in bins, which limits access to vectors. Since all handling will be in an enclosed
12

building, vector attraction will be minimized. The end use of the finished. Class A
compost will not create nuisance conditions or vector attraction problems because of the
stable nature of the material. Surface water will not be allowed to stand in or
immediately around the compost building to reduce breeding areas.
If vectors become a problem standard, commercially available, control methods will be
used.
FIRE
In the unUely event of a fire the Environmental Services Manager, Environmental
Services Employees, or other employee of Rose Acre Farms shall immediately attempt to
contact the complex manager. Every attempt will be made to extinguish the fire before it
spreads into the rest of the building or damages the building. This would be
accomplished by using a water hose to extinguish any open flames. For small fires, a fire
e x--tinguisher will be on hand.
After any open flames are controlled, smoldering areas or other "hot spots" will be
controlled by using a small front-end loader to open up the storage area, wind row or
composting bin so that the trot area can be further controlled. A decision will be made
early in the response to a fire of whether the local fire department should respond. A
placard at the entrance to the building shall have local emergency phone numbers on it.
After firefighting efforts are finished, finished product will be retumed to its storage
area. If the fire was in a wind row or composting bin, the material which had been
disturbed would be replaced, and the composting process for the disturbed material re-
started from the beginning. A notation of this product would be made on any associated
orrequired forms.
UNUSUAL MORTALITY
If due to unforeseen circumstances a higher than normal death rate would occur that
could not be handled by the compost facility, several options would be pursued. One
would be to deliver the mortalities to a rendering operation_ A second option would be
to deliver the mortalities to an approved landfill.
Any option pursued, for unexplainable or disease related increased mortality, would first
be approved by the North Carolina State Veterinarian or his/her appropriate staff.
COMPOST TEMPERATURES
If at any time the temperature of any compost is not meeting the required level as
established by the North Carolina Solid Waste Rules governing Class A compost then
13

one of two courses of action will be pursued. One action would be to insert pipes into the
compost stacks which will increase aerobic activity, resulting in increased compost
temperatures. Another option would be to add some water to the compost, which would
also increase the temperature.
Particulates
Dust should not be an issue since most of the operation is inside. On site road ways will
be sprayed with water if dust becomes an off site problem.
Noise and Traffic
Due to the rural nature of this site, the fact that the operation is inside, and the minimal
amount of equipment use noise is not anticipated to be a problem.
Off site traffic will only be an issue when compost is distributed to the public. The rural
nature of the area and the fact that most of the compost will be transported in large trucks
should avoid traffic problems.
Record Keeping and Reporting
Daily operational records will include compost temperature and turning data, the
quantity, type and source of waste received and processed into compost, and the
analytical results from the testing done oil the compost. The quantity and classification
of compost removed from the facility and the market or disposal facility the compost was
distributed to will also be maintained. The following logs will be used to record and
maintain this information.
MANURE AND MORTALITIES TRANSFER LOG
Manure and mortality maintained separately
HEN MORTALITIES COMPOSTING LOG

Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources or will be sent to them upon
their request.
An annual report covering the time frame from July I through June 3 Q will be sent to the
Division of Solid Waste Management for the North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources by August 1 of that same year containing the information required
in 15 NCAC 13.51408(c). The annual report will fallow the following outline:

Hearing Conservation Program
I. PURPOSE
This purpose of this hearing conservation program is to prevent occupational hearing loss and comply with the OSHA Standard 29
CFR 1910,95 - Occupational Noise Exposure.
II. APPLICATION
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Occupational Noise Exposure standard 29 CFR 1910.95 establishes a
permissible exposure limit(PEL) for occupational noise exposure, and requirements for audiometric testing, hearing protection, and
employee training if those sound Ievels are exceeded. This regulation defines an "action level" (AL) as a "dose" of 50%, which is
equivalent to an ea i-hour time wen kited averai:e of SS dBA. When noise levels exceed this amount, an effective hearing
conservation program is required, which includes as a minimum:
Reg niregtent Section
1. Noise monitoring
29 CFR 1910.95(d)(e)(0
2. Audiometric testing
29 CFR 1910.95(g)(h)
3. Hearing protectors
29 CFR 1910.95(i)U)
4, Education and training
29 CFR 1910,95(k)(1)
5. P ecordkeeping
29 CFR 1910.95(rn)
Note. Re OSHA regulation only indicates a minimum level of hearing protection and focuses on permanent hearing loss. Short
durations of noise, especially sharp bursts of noise at these levels can not only induce bearing loss but can also affect an employee's
health and safety in other ways (See Table # 1 on page IS).
lilt. BACKGROUND
Occupational noise can cause hearing loss, and increase the worker's susceptibility to other workplace problems including physical
and psychological disorders, interference with speech and communication, and disruption of job performance associated with
excessive noise intensities. This exposure to noise produces hearing loss of a neural type involving injury to the inner car hair cells.
The loss of heating may be temporary ot permanent. Brief exposure causes a temporary loss. Repeated exposure to (sigh n©ise levels
will cause a permanent loss.
Permanent healing loss is preventable with the continued use of proper hearing protection and reduction of workplace noise levels to
below 85 decibels. This will benefit not only employees who can listen and communicate well throughout there lifetimes, but also
helps the employer in terms of reduced exposure to hearing loss compensation claims and a potential for increased general safety and
job performance.
IV. RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLIANCE
The administration of this program will be the responsibility of the complex manager. Administrative responsibilities include:
1. Coordination and supervision of noise exposure monitoring.
2. Identification of employees to be included in the Hearing Conservation Program.
3. Coordination and supervision of audiometric testing program_
4. Supervision of hearing protector selection.
5. development of policies relating to the use of hearing protectors.
REVISED 10/13/10

6. Supervision of employee training programs,
7. Coordination and supervision of required recordkeeping.
8. Periodic evaluation of overall program.
9. Coordination of required changes/improvements in the program-
V. NOISE MONITORING
l . When information indicates that any employee's exposure may equal or exceed an 8-hour time -weighted -average of 85 decibels, the
employer shall develop and implernent a monitoring program -
?. Employers shall identify employees for McIusion in the hearing conservation program and to enable the proper selection of bearing
protectors.
3. All continuous, intermittent and impulsive sound levels from 80 decibels to 130 decibels shall be integrated into the noise
measurmrnents.
d. Instruments used to measure employee noise exposure shall be calibrated to ensure measurement accuracy.
�. Monitoring shall be repeated whenever a change in pruduction, process, equipment or controls increases noise exposures to the extent
that:
i. Additional employees may be exposed at or above the action level, or
ii. 'The attenuation provided by hearing protectors being used by employees may be rendered inadequate to meet the requirements
(explained in section IX).
6. The employer shall notify each employee exposed at or above an 8-hour time -weighted average of 85 decibels of the results of the
monitoring.
7. The employer shall provide affected employees or their representatives with an opportunity to observe any noise measurernems
conducted.
S_ Monitoring will be coordinated by complex manager with assistance from Safety Department.
9. The results of the noise exposure Measurements will be recorded on form # 1,
V II. AUDIOMETRIC TESTING
The employer shall establish and maintain an audiometric testing by making audiometric testing available to all employees whose
exposures equal or exceed an 8-hour time -weighted average of 85 decibels.
The program shall be provided at no cost to employees.
Audiometric tests shall be performed by a licensed or certified audiologist_ orolaryugologist, or other physician, or by a technician
who is certified by the Council of Accreditation in Occupational Hearing Conservation, or wbo has satisfactorily demonstrated
competence in administering audioretric examinations, obtaining valid audiograms, and properly using, maintaining and checking
calibration and proper functioning of the audiometers being used. A technician who operates microprocessor audiometers does not
need to be certified_ A technician who performs audiometric tests must be responsible to arc audiologist, otolaryngologist or physician.
Baseline audiogram
Within 6 months of an employee's first exposure at or above the action level, the employer shall establish a valid baseline audiograrn
against which subsequent audiograms can be compared.
Mobile test van exception
REVISED 10/13/10

Where mobile test vans are used to meet the audiometric testing obligation, the employer shaI1 Obtain a valid baseline audiogram
within I year of an employee's first exposure at or above the action level, Where baseline audiogt-ms are obtained more than 6
months after the employee's first exposure at or above the action level, employees shall wearing hearing protectors for any period
exceeding six months after first exposure until the baseline audiograrn is obtained.
Testing to establish a baseline audiognum shall be preceded by at least 14 hours without exposure to workplace noise. Hearing
protectors may be used as a substitute for the requirement that baseline audiograms be preceded by 14 hours without exposure to
workplace noise.
The complex manager shall notify employees of the need to avoid high levels of non -occupational noise exposure during the 14-hour
period immediately preceding the audiometric ex amination.
Annual audiogram
Audiograms will be conducted at least annually after obtaining the baseline audiogram for each employee exposed at or above an S-
hour time -weighted average of 85 decibels.
The complex manager will maintain a record of all employee audiometric test records. This record will include
1. Name and job classification of the employee.
2. Date of the, audiogram.
3. The examiner's name.
4. Dare of the last acoustic or exhaustive calibration of the audiometer.
5. Employee's most recent noise exposure assessment.
_ UDIOMETRIC EVALVATI
1 Each employee's annual audiogram will be compared to hisiber baseline audiogram by qualified evaluator to determine if a Standard
Threshold SM11(STS) has occurred. 'This comparison may be done by a technician.
2. A Standard Threshold Shift is defined by OSHA as a change in hearing threshold relative to the baseline of an average of IOdB or
more at 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz either ear.
3. In determit&g if a Standard Threshold Shift has occurred, an allowance can be made for the contribution of aging (presbycusis). The
age correction vaiues to he used are found in Appendix F of 1910.95.
4. 'The audiologist, otolaryngologist, or physician shall review problem audiograms and shall determine whether there is a need for
further evaluation. The employer shall provide to the person performing this evaluation the following information:
a. A copy of the requirements for hearing conservation as set forth in the standard.
b. The baseline audiogram and most recent audiog7arn of the employee to be evaluated.
c. Measurements of background sound pressure levels in the audiometric test room as required in Appendix D: Audiometric Test
Rooms.
d. Records of audiometer calibrations
If the annual audlogra a shows that an employee has suffered a standard threshold shift, the employer may obtain a retest within 30
days and consider the results of the retest as the annual audiograrn.
REVISED 10/13/30

6. Unless a physician determines that the standard threshold shift is not work related or aggravated by occupational noise exposure, the
employer shall ensure thiat the foIiowing steps are taken when a standard threshold shift occurs:
a. Employees not using hearing protectors will be trained, fitted, and required to use hearing protectors if they are ext)osed to an 8
hour TWA average sound level of 85 decibels or greater.
b. Employees already using hearing protectors shall be retrained, refitted, and required to use hearing protectors and provided with
hearing protectors offering greater attenuation if necessary.
c. The complex manager will inform the employee, in writing, within 21 days of this determination, of the existence of a permanent
Standard Threshold Shift. (See Form # 2) A copy of the STS letter will also be sent to the employee's supervisor.
d. The complex manager will counsel the employee on the importance of using hearing protectors and refer the employee for further
Clinical evaluation if necessary.
7. Persistent significant threshold shins roust be entered on the OSHA 300 Log if determined to be work related-
S. If subsequent audiometric testing of an employee whose exposure to noise is Jess than an 8-hour TWA of 90 decibels indicates that a
Standard Threshold Shift is not persistent, the complex manager:
a. Shall inform the employee of the new audiometric interpretation.
b. May discontinue the required use of hearing protectors for that employee
VZII. PROTECTION EQUIPMENT
A. The complex manager shall ensure that hearing protectors are worn:
By any employee who is subjected to sound levels eQual to or exceeding art 8-hour TWA of 90 decibels.
By any employee who has experienced a persistent Standard Threshold Shift and who is exposed to 8-hour TWA of
85 decibels or greater.
By any employee who has not had a initial baseline audiogram and who is exposed to 8-hour TWA of 85 decibels or
greater.
B. Employees will be given the opportunity to select their hearing protectors from a variety of suitable hearing protectors at no
cost to thern.
C. The complex manager will provide training in the use and care of all hearing protectors.
D. The complex manager will ensure proper initial fitting and supervise the correct use ofali hearing protectors.
E_ Employees will be held accountable for not properly using and maintaining the equipment furnished.
F. The complex manager will evaluate the attenuation characteristics of the hearing protectors to ensure that a given protector
will reduce the individual's exposure to the required decibels. (See Form # 3)
Iftbc, 8-hour TWA is over 90 decibels, then the protector mast attenuate the exposure to at least an 8-hour TWA of
90 decibels or below.
If the protector is being worn because the employee experienced a Standard "Ihreshold Shift, then the protector must
attenuate the exposure to a 8-hour TWA of 85 decibels or below.
If employee noise exposures increase to the extent that the hearing protectors provided may no longer provide
adequate attenuation. the employee will be provided more effective hearing protectors.
REVISED 10/13/10

G, It is the responsibility of the supervisor to ensure that hearing protectors are wom by all e►rrpIoyees who are exposed to noise
levels at or above an eight Stour TXVA of 90 decibels or if the employee experienced a permanent STS or has not yet had a
baseline audiogram.

Dear
Your most recent audiometric test result vas compared to your baseline audiogram. This comparison indicates that your hearing has
deteriorated to the point where your hearing impairment constitutes a "standard threshold shift" This is defined by the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (DSHA) as a relative hearing Ioss of an average of 10 decibels in either ear at the frequencies of 2 00 0. 3046 and
4, 00OHz.
An audiogram cannot define why you have a hearing loss, but there are many possible reasons such as infections, wax buildup in your car and
noise.
By taking the necessary action now, we can try to stop bearing loss from getting worse.
Consequently, we want to fit you with hearing protectors. Please call _ to arrange an appointment with
Whenevcr you are in a work environment that would result in noise exposure that equals or exceeds an 8 bour Time Weighted Average (TWA)

• Changes in the style or type of PPE used, renders the previous training obsolete.
• An event has occurred which indicates the affected employee has not retained the training on the proper use of the
PPE.
• The employee is observed incorrectly using the assigned PPE.
C. A training certificate will be kept for each employee. The certificate will contain the name of the employee trained, date
of training and identify the PPE covered in the training. These certificates should be kept in the employee's training file.
See Appendix "A".
W. Protective Devices
A. All PPE will be appropriate for the work to be performed and maintained in a clean condition. Equipment must meet
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards. Gloves must be selected based on style, size and performance
characteristics of the glove in relation to the hazards encountered. {Note: currently there is no ANSI standard for hand
protection).
1 ] Eye and Face Protection
Employees must use appropriate eye or face protection when exposed to hazards frova flying particles, liquid
chemicals, acids or caustics, chemical gases or vapors, or injurious light radiation. Eyewear shall comply with
ANSI 287.1 as indicated by labels on the PPE. When there is a hazard from flying objects, side protectors
meeting ANSI standards must be used. Examples of jobsltasks at RAF where this protection is needed includes:
• electrician
& Breaker
• chemical
operators
handling
► grinders
• construction
• welders
• Ia gat cleanup
. sloop
► sanitizers
• laboratcty
workers
• groutadskeepers
• bird movers
■ house managers
packers
* This list is not meant to be all-inclusive as otherjobs/tasks muy require PPE @ limes*
Those employees wearing prescription glasses need to wear approved safety glasses that incorporate the
prescription into the glasses o+t wear goggles over the prescription glasses.
Visitors, contractors, or others passing through an identified eye hazard area need to wear appropriate eyewear
also. An ample supply of visitor safety glasses should be available for use
2) Emergency Eyewash Stations
Emergency eyewash facilities will be provided in ail areas where the eyes of any employee may be exposed to
corrosive materials. All such emergency facilities will be located where they are easily accessible in an
emergency.
3) Foot Protection
REVISED 10/13/10

Employees working in areas where there is a danger of foot injuries due to failing or rolling objects, or objects
piercing the sole shall wear protective footwear. It is mandatory for employees working in or near breaking
facilities to wear anti -slip foomear.
Open shoes such as sandals and "flip-flops" are not considered as substantial footwear by the Safety
Department.
4) Head Protection
All employees must wear a hard hat when there is a danger froin impact and/or penetration from failing objects,
or the possibility of striking protruding objects with their head in any work location.
S) Hand Protection
Employees must use appropriate hand protection when exposed to hazards from skin absorption of harmful
substances, severe cuts or lacerations; abrasions, punctures, chemical burns, or temperature extremes. Glove
selection will be based on performance characteristics of the gloves. conditions, duration of use, and hazards
present_ One type of glove will not work in all situations,
When selecting gloves for use against chemicals, the exact chemicals encountered treed to be determined.
Labels and MSDSs can provide this information. Recommended glove types are often listed in the section for
PPE on the MSDS. All glove materials are eventually permeated by Chemicals. They can be used safely for a
limited time. A manufacturer's glove selection guide is the best reference when selecting gloves. The Safety
Department can assist in determining the specific type of glove material that should be worn for particular
chemicals.
6) Hearing Protection
The controlling of existing noise levels by engineering controls is the most preferable course of action.
Therefore, the feasibility of such controls should be carefully considered. Due to the complexity of some
machinery, and in view of economic limitations, some noise levels cannot be reduced to below acceptable
limits. In these cases, the manufacturers of machinery that produces noise levels exceeding the accepted
guidelines should be notified of the high noise levels. The suppliers should be requested to redesign machinery
where possible to meet the defined regulations. As interim solutions, consideration should be given to the
design and construction of partial or total enclosures, and other engineering noise control procedures for
reducing the existing noise levels, where such procedures are deemed technologically and economically
feasible.
Until engineering controls reduce the amount of noise exposure to or below the accepted limits, RAF will make
available appropriate personal hearing protection to noise -exposed employees, RAF will also ensure that the
hearing protection is worn effectively. It is recognized that the use of these devices is considered a temporary
solution to the problem of over -exposure until feasible controls are provided.
As with all safety equipment, the wearing of hearing protection in required areas is mandatory. All supervisors
roust enforce hearing protection requirements.
Individuals responsible for issuing and fitting hearing protection roust be appropriately trained. Fitting and
issuing of hearing protective devices be&s when employees are hired.
The criteria for the selection of hearing protection should include.: the level of daily worker exposure, the
workers' hearing and communication requirements, use of other personal protective equipment, temperature and
climate, and physical constraints of the worker or work activity.
Where noise levels cannot be. reduce to or below the exposure limits by engineered noise controls, warning
signs will be posted stating that a noise hazard exists and that all workers entering the area must wear hearing
protection. All workers required ro enter these areas must be supplied hearing protection and the supervisor
must ensure that any worker in these areas wears hearing protection.
REVISED l to/l 3 /14

V. Cleaning and Maintenance
A. It is the employee's responsibility to ensure their PPE is clean and properly maintained, Cleau nng is particularly
important for eye and face protection where dirty or fogged lenses could impair vision. PPE should be inspected,
cleaned and maintained at regular intervals.
B. it is also important to ensure that eontarninatc;d PPE, which cannot be decontaminated, is disposed of in a warmer that
protects employees frorn exposure to hazards.

Bloodborne Pathogen Program
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this exposure control plan (ECP) is to eliminate or minimize occupational exposure to bioodborn e pathogens in
accordance with OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.1 030. The ECP is a key document to assist in implementing and ensuring compliance
with the standard, thereby protecting our employees. This ECP includes:
Determination of employee exposure
■ Impletnent.ation of various methods of exposure control. including:
• Universal precautions
• Engineering and work practice controls
+ Personal protective equipment
+ Housekeeping
• Hepatitis B vaccination
• Post -exposure evaluation and follow-up
• Communication of hazards to employees and training
• Record keeping
• Procedures for evaluating circumstances surrounding an exposure incident
J. PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
The Safety Department is responsible for the implementation of the ECP. The Safety Department will maintain, review, and update
the ECP to include new or modified tasks and procedures, new safety devices, or when an exposure incident indicates the need for a
revision in the plan. Those employees who are determined to have occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious
materials (OPIM) must comply with the procedures and work practices outlined in this ECP.
K EMPLOYEE EXPOSURE DETERMfNATiON
Tltere are certain job classifications @ Rose Acres that may be considered "at risk" For occupational exposure to blood of other
potentially infectious materials. This exposure detcrmination has been made without regard for the use of personal protective
equipment or the fxegoency of the exposure.
Employees who have not had bloodborne pat.hugen training are not allowed to clean up or handle blood or body fluids.
Employees who voluntarily render first aid are not covered under this exposure control plan; they da so as a "Good Samaritan."
L. METHODS OF LMPLEMENTATION AND CONTROL
Engineering controls and work practice controls will be used to prevent or minimize exposure w bloodborne pathogens.
Engineering controls
• New procedures and new products will be evaluated on a regular basis. Both front line workers and management officials will be
involved in choosing safer products and procedures.
Work practice controls
• Universal Precautions (Appendix A) - all employees will treat blood and body fluids containing blood as if they are infected and
use universal precautions,
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is required - it is not optional. Selection and availability of PPE will be discussed in the
employee's initial training session. All employees using PPE raust observe the following precautions:
■ Wash hands immediately or as soon as feasible after removing gloves/PPE,
• Remove PPE after it becomes contaminated, and before leaving the work area.
■ Contaminated PPE may be disposed of in a properly marked biohazard container.
REVISED 10/13/10

• Wear appropriate gloves when it can be reasonably anticipated that there may be hand contact with blood or OPIM. and when
handling or touching contaminated items or surfaces; replace gloves if torn. punctured, contaminated, or if their ability to function
as a barrier is compromised.
• Utility gloves may be decontaminated for reuse if their integrity is not compromised; discard utility gloves if they show signs of
cracking, peeling, tearing, puncturing, or deterioration,
■ Never wash or decontaminate disposable gloves for reuse.
• Wear appropriate face and eye protection when splashes, sprays. spatters; or droplets of blood or OPIM pose a ha7.ard to the eyes,
nose, or MOA.
• remove immediately or as soon as feasible any garment contaminated by blood or OPINi, in such a way as to avoid contact with
the outer surface,
All procedures will be conducted in a manner that will minimize splashing, spraying, splattering, and generation of droplets of
blood or other potentially infectious materials.
• No eating, drinking, smoking, or application of cosmetics is allowed in work areas where there is potential for contamination with
infectious materials.
Housekeeping
■ Arcas that are contaminated with blood or other potentially infectious materials will be cleaned with a fresh solution of sodium
hypochlorite (household bleach) or an EPA registered germicide. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends a solution
of 5.25 percent bleach diluted with water - 1 part bleach to 10 parts water up to 1 part bleach to 100 parts water (from '/, cup to 1
'/2 cups bleach per gallon of water). This is an effective solution for disinfecting environmental surfaces and for decontamination
of sites following initial cleanup (wiping up) of spills of blood or other potentially infectious materials. It can also be used to
decontaminate reusable gloves and cleaning equipment, All contaminated work surfaces and equipment will be decontaminated as
soon as feasible.
• Any sharp object contaminated with blood such as broken glassware or sharp metal should not be picked up by hand. Employees
must use tongs, a brush and dustpan, cardboard, or other available material to remove the contaminated glassware.
■ All regulated waste must be clearly marked with the universal biohazard label. Bio-hazw-dous materials for disposal should Fe
placed in ieak-proof red bags that bear the biohazard label and are securely sealed
■ Regulated biohazard waste disposal will be performed in accordance with all Federal, State, and local regulations.
M. EXPOSURE INCIDENTS
An exposure incident is defined by OSHA as "a specific eye, mouth, other mucous membrane, non -intact skin, or parenteral contact
with blood or other potentially infectious materials that results from the performance of an employee's duties." Should an exposure
incident occur, Hash the affected area with non-abrasive soap and warm P cuter brrmedialely. Following the initial first aid (clean the
wound, flush eyes or other mucous membrane, etc_) contact your supervisor immediately?
VL PROCEDURES FOR EVALUATING THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING AN EXPOSURE INCIDENT
The Safety Department and the employee's supervisor will review the circumstances of all exposure incidents to determine;
+ engineering controls in use at the time
• work practices followed
• protective equipment or clothing that was used at the tune of the exposure incident
• location of the incident
• procedure being performed when the incident occurred
• employee's training
The Safety Department will record all injuries from contaminated sharps in the Sharps Injury i .og, recording the incident but
maintaining the employee's confidentiality.
Nqi. EMPLOYEE TRAINING
All employees who are considered to be at risk for occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens receive training conducted by a
qualified trainer. Training will be given prior to initial assignment to tasks where exposure may occur and a refresher course will be
given annually. The training wits cover the ep idemi o iogy, symptoms, and transmission of btoodborne diseases, In addition, the
training program covers, at a minimum, the following elements:
REVISED 10/13/10

• a copy and explanation of the standard
• an explanations of our Exposurc. Control Program and how to obtain a copy
an explanation of methods to recognize tasks and other actiAties that may involve exposure to blood and other potentially
infectious material, including what constitutes an exposure incident.
• an explanation of the use and limitations of engineering controls, work practices, and PPE
as explanation of the types, uses, location, removal, handling, decontamination, and disposal of PPE
• an explanation of the basis for PPE selection
• information on the hepatitis 8 vaccine, including information on its efficacy, safety, method of administration, the benefits of
being vaccinated, and that the vaccine will be offered free of charge
+ information on the appropriate actions to take and persons to vontact in an emergency involving blood or OPIM
■ an explanation of the procedure to follow if an exposure incident occurs, including the method of reporting the incident and the
medical follow-up that will be made available
• information on the post -exposure evaluation and follow-up that the employer is required to provide for the employee following
an exposure incident

Mr. Michael Scott, Supervisor
Composting and Land Application Branch
NC Division of Solid Waste
1 646 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1646
Subject: As Built Drawings
Permit SWC-48-01
Rose Acre Farms, Hyde County
Dear Mr. Scott:
By letter dated November 2, 2010 1 transmitted an application for the
renewal and modification of the subject permit by Rose Acre Farms. At
that time a revised application and operating plan were submitted along
with drawings, sealed by a North Carolina Registered Professional
Engineer, to show the details of the construction of the new composting
and storage buildings that were being erected on existing concrete
foundations at the site. The detailed site drawings, geotechnical reports,
and aerial photos that were provided with the original application and
were not re -submitted, but were included by reference.
The construction of the new covers for conversion of the existing building
foundations to compost service has now been completed. The buildings
as finally constructed differ in some of the structural details from the
drawings originally submitted with the application. These changes were
made to simplify and reduce the cost of the construction. The structural
revisions were designed by a North Carolina Registered Professional
Engineer, and a complete set of sealed engineering drawings for the
revised structure is attached for your files.

The capacity and use of the building modifications did not change with
the structural detail changes, and the operation plan submitted with the
application has not charged with the structural detail changes. I visited
the facility on April 26, 2011 to inspect and photograph the new
Composting buildings. While structural analysis is outside my area of
practice, i observed that the buildings and covers followed the plans
provided.
Based on my inspection and review of the previously submitted
application documents, I can certify that the modifications to the
facilities, as constructed, meet the functions and intent spelled out the
permit application, and relying upon the information provided by another
registered professional engineer, will function as intended. f am providing
my photographs of the site for your records_
Thank you for your assistance in this process. If you have any questions,
need any additional information, or would like to have additional copies,
please give me a call.
0*21V.&.

Hopefully this is what you are needing_ I'm not sure why the otber items showed up on the attachment I sent
you earlier, but I crossed referenced, and these book and page numbers were the only ones that pulled up on the
Hyde County GIS.
Pullet farm (20 acres; book: 209 Page: 287) -- Parcel # E4 50A
Main complex including composting (770.9 acres; book: 196 page: 646) -- Parcel # D3
Total acres of facility and pullet farm T 790.9 acres

Timothy,
Thanks for getting this information so quickly to me, so that I can complete year permit renewal. My apologies, but as it
turns out l will need the total acres you provided me to be broken-down by per {parcel of land based on the attached
document you sent listing each book and page 10.

I believe I've gat the rest of what you need in the numbers below. As you saw when you visited, our plan is to
compost in 2 buildings and use the 3rd for finished storage. Obviously, as we store more compost, then our
available space to use for composting is reduced. Please let me know if you need anything else on top of this
data.
Facifi1y Acres
• facility minus composting buildings acres = 20 acres
compost buildings acres = 4.389 acres
• total facility including composting = 24.388 acres
Composting Information
• max height of windrows = 9 ft
• max width of windrows =14 ft
• max height of finished compost storage =35 ft
• inax width of finished compost storage = 100 ft
• total capacity of in process and finished. compost = 1,101,785 cu ft

Timothy,
Thanks for the information you sent_ Do all those different parcels in your attachment represent Rose Ares property at
one location? if so are all of these different parcels under one ownership row?
I still need the total acres of your facility and the nurnbers of acres that your include your composting area (the three
barns).

Tony,
I have attached some of the information you need for the permit to this email, and I hope to have the rest for you
soon, The attached should answer the questions about who and when land was purchase along with how much
land. It has the book and page numbers, too. I'm working on the capacity nuznbers as I want to be stare I get
these correct. Please verify you need the following:
• max height and width of windrows
• max height and width of finished compost storage
• total capacity
I'd like to ask you to clarify with me agar exactly what needs to be included in the total capacity number. Is
that for finished compost storage oxtly? Finished compost plus in process compost? Just trying to get a clear
understanding of what you need so I can work it up and get it to you.
Thanks,
Timothy Waters
