Atlantic All Pro Septic Tank Service Inc. Nutrient Management, Erosion and Runoff Plan Amended and Revised Permit # 6705 December 1, 2021
Linda Melville 2032 Belgrade-Swansboro Road Maysville, NC 28555 [phone] Septage Application to Bermuda grass and Rye Grass
A. Best Management Practices
The undersigned parties agree to manage the septage disposal site that is located in Onslow County, east of SR 1434 between the communities of Belgrade and
Silverdale, according to the following best management practices. This list of practices has been specifically designed for land application of septage by
Atlantic All-Pro Septic Tank Service Inc.
1. The application fields contain approximately 47.3 acres of usable disposal Area. Field #1 4.8 acres, Autryville loamy fine sand with very little slope (less than 2%). Field #2 approximately 14 acres usable disposal area. Autryville loamy fine sand with very little slope (less than
2%). Field #3 contains two application areas spilt by a field drain. One area containing 4.8 acres and the other contains 1.8 acres; this field has a 50’ buffer and roadway. This area has been seeded with a coastal
Bermuda grass variety and is ready for septage application. Field #4
contains 20.7 acres of application area, with a 250’ buffer set back from
well. Fields 5, 6 and 7 need to be removed from permit. 2. Septage will not be applied where the site is untrafficable. Untrafficable is
defined as soil that will allow a loaded truck to leave a depression in sod greater than 3 inches in depth. 3. Septage storage shall be provided to account for the average volume of
Septage pumped per week.

B. Crops to be Grown and Approximate Planting
1. Application fields including buffer zones, will be maintained in coastal
Bermuda Grass. Soil PH should be maintained between 5.0-5.5. Each year thereafter, each field will be over seeded with annual ryegrass at the rate of approximately 30 pounds/acre (broadcast) during the time frame of Sept. 15 – Nov. 15.
2. During the winter and spring 2011, Bermuda Grass will be sprigged at the rate of 12 bushels per acre or seeded as necessary. C. Nitrogen needs for the Crops Grown:
R.Y.E. = Realistic Yield Expectations N APP. Rate = Suggested N Application Rate Based on R.Y.E. for Soil Type. Crop (Cut for Hay) R.Y.E. N App. Rate LBS N/AC

Coastal Bermuda Grass 6.0 Tons/Acre X 40 Lbs N/Dry Ton = 240.0
Annual Ryegrass 2.5 Tons/Acre X 25 Lbs N/Dry Ton = 62.5 Total Nitrogen/AC = 302.5

D. Relative Application Rate For Field:

September Medium Medium Medium Medium Medium Medium
October Medium Medium Medium Medium Medium Medium
November Low Low Low Low Low Low
December Low Low Low Low Low Low Low =5,000 gallons: Medium=10,000 Gallons: High=15,000 gallons
Note: Cumulative Application Rate is not to exceed the permitted Application Rate. E. Application Method:
The preceding information is based on the septage being evenly applied over the
entire permitted site or fields. F. Additional Fertility Requirements:
N-P-K will be added to the land application area to maintain fertility levels, which will be based on the soil test results from NCDA.

G. Harvest of the Crop:
1. The Bermuda Grass will be cut as hay, baled, and removed whenever it Reaches approximately 12 inches in height, or roughly every 4 to 6 weeks
beginning in June. Approximately three or four harvest can be expected.
2. The rye grass will be cut as hay and baled March and April from all Applications fields.
3. A 30-day waiting period will be observed between the last application of Septage and harvest. Beginning about the first of March each year, septage
will be applied strictly to ½ of the acreage of applications area while ½ of
the rye is undisturbed for 30 days. After 30 days the rye fields receiving
no pass 30-day application of septage will be harvested and septage application then switched to those fields. After an additional 30 days the second half of the rye crop having no septage applied within past 30 days.
Late April/ early May, will be harvested. By early May, a rotation is established which can cycle every 30 to 45 days between the Bermuda Grass harvest. By the end of October, rye will have been planted and all sites will be available for septage application until the end of February the
following year.
4. Hay will not be harvested with 30 days of septage application.
Soil Erosion and Runoff Control Plan
Given that the slopes on these sites do not exceed three percent, on a group I & II
soil. A 10-foot grass buffer around the woods is to be provided on all fields and 25-foot buffer on road paths. A 50-foot buffer is provided from property lines. These buffers will be planted with Bermuda Grass/Rye Grass and should suffice to prevent septage from migrating off the field. Also setback areas on wooded sides will remain forested litter
cover. No septage will be applied within 50’ of any ditch even with continuous grasses to ditch. All setbacks from stream and wetlands will be according to 15 NCAC 13 B.
0821(4)(D).
