COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and
limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system
for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be
established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or
increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to
the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or
number of animals.
Please read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit carefully. Pleasepay careful attention to the
record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit. Record keeping forms are unchanged with this
General Permit- Please continue to use the same record keepingforms.
If your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) has been developed based on site -specific information, careful
evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current WUP is inaccurate
you will need to have a new WUP developed.

If the sludge level is equal to or higher than the stop pump level of the lagoon or if the sludge level
results in an elevated waste analysis, a sludge management plan that meets the requirements of SB
Interagency Group Guidance Document 1.26 must be prepared by a technical specialist and submitted to
DWQ within 90 days. Work to reduce the sludge level must begin within another 180 days. Compliance
with NRCS Standard 359 must be achieved within two years of the original sludge survey.
If the sludge level is non -compliant but below the stop pump level of the lagoon, a POA must be filed
within 90 days and compliance with NRCS Standard 359 must be achieved within two years of the
original sludge survey indicating non-compliance. If future sludge surveys do not show improvement in
sludge levels, DWQ may require the owner to develop a sludge management plan that meets the
requirements of SIB Interagency Group Guidance Document 1.26.

The table shown below provides a summary of the crops or rotations included in this plan for each field. Realistic Yield estimates are
also provided for each crop, as well as the crop's P205 Removal Rate. The Leaching Index (L.I) and the Phosphorous Loss Assessment
Too] (PLAT) Rating are also provided for each field, where available.
If a field's PLAT Rating is High, any planned manure application is limited to the phosphorous removal rate of the harvested plant
biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. Fields with a Very High PLAT Rating should receive no
additional applications of manure. Regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers may be recommended in accordance with North
Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. The quantity of P205 applied to each crop is shown in the following table if
the field's PLAT rating is High or Very High.

The Waste Utilization table shown bel ow summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland needed to use
the nutrients being produced. The plan quires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to
maximize nutrient uptake.
'this table provides an estimate of the lamount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being Supplied by manure or other by-products,
commercial fertilizer and residual from 1-evious crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity
of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides
for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. Infiltration rate varies with soils. If
applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the
maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum
application amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

NOTE: Symbol * means user entered data.

The Nutrient Management Recommendations table shown below provides an annual summary of the nutrient management plan
developed for this operation. This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and crops for each year of the plan.
Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements and soil test results. The
quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified.
The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity of other
nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other byproducts are utilized
to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited so
as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field- In such situations,
additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

The Required Soil Test Values shown in I he following table provide a summary of recommended actions that should be taken if soil tests indicate excessive levels of
copper or zinc. Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant growth.
Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and
zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.95. By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we
can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, " table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample. Application of
lime at reconunended rates is necessary tQ maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production .

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge
utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source,
the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this
material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but
other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high,
application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for
sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of
copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes,
phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity available
at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days
minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is
defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or
holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage
capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that
the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative,
the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these
situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the
structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation
or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is
prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns
or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the
waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the
waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is
within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste
application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to
secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving
crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for
realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data,
climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Waste may be applied to laud eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but
less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where
runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard
393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land
application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to
conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and
Climate in N6r--th Carolina" for guidance).
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such
that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does
not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor and flies.
---------------•------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
651318 Database Version 3.I Date Printed: 4/1/2009 Specification Page 1

8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or
when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that
the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted
crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on
these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted
to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior
to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with the
following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from
a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any
residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste
from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25
feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than
those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public
right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or
wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to
prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land
application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other
grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that
causes no runoff or drift from the site.
���m.nr3-imdust�ial�a�s�lo�vn�'a�iil#il�w s,--s�
etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
----------------------------------- ----- ----------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
651318 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 4/1/2009 Specification Page 2

17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed
areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other
woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon
areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be
inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate
the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops
for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for
direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further
applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of
the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons.
Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A
marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage
ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least
annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the
rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied
based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen
based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative
crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be
adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application
records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste anolicatiop records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (�
years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
N.C. Practice Job Sheet_ NC-590-633
Prepared for: 1C 6A.. waJe-k-
By: �v 5 eL CVV—
Farm :
WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT?
The conservation practice, Nutrient
Management, is managing the amount,
source, placement, form and timing of the
application of nutrients and soil amendments
to achieve realistic production goals, while
minimizing nutrient movement to surface or
ground waters. The practice, Waste
Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as
manure or wastewater in an environmentally
sound manner. These practices are jointly
accomplished through the development of a
Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan,
which is normally part of a broader
Conservation Plan that addresses multiple
natural resource concerns on the land.
PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT
and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES
Your nutrient management/waste utilization
plan is intended to accomplish one or more of
the following objectives:
• To budget nutrients for plant production.
• To properly utilize manure or organic by-
products as a plant nutrient source.
• To minimize the delivery of agricultural
nutrients to surface and ground water
resources.
• To maintain or improve the physical,
chemical, and biological condition of the
soil.
Tract: 1 q 2 Date: 4/--Lj- moo ]'
To utilize agricultural wastes for
livestock feed or as an energy source.
CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT / WASTE UTILIZATION
PLAN
The information provided in this Job
Sheet and the attachments meet the
minimum requirements for a Nutrient
Management Plan for USDA-NRCS
purposes. This Nutrient Management
Plan includes:
1 A plan map and soils map for the area
planned (these may be part of the
overall Conservation Plan).
2. Location of designated sensitive areas
or resources (streams, wells,
sinkholes, etc.) and any associated
nutrient application setbacks, etc.
3. Your planned crop rotation.
4. Results of soil, plant, water tests.
5. Results from Phosphorus Loss
Assessment Tool (PLAT) or Leaching
Index_( as required.
6. Realistic yield expectations for the
crops in the rotation, and their source
if other than default values approved
for N.C.
7. Recommended nutrient application
rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and
potassium, as well as timing, form,
NC Practice Job Sheet! NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 1

and method of application and
incorporation, if applicable.
8. This ,fob Sheet (or comparable
information), that provides the following
• General requirements of this practice,
as well as additional requirements to
meet the natural resource protection
purposes listed above.
• Additional considerations specific to
this plan.
• Operation and maintenance
information associated with this
practice.
Because this Nutrient Management Plan
includes agricultural organic sources,
additional items are required in the plan to
ensure proper waste utilization:
• Waste Utilization Agreement (if
applicable)
• Waste Utilization Third Party
Agreement (if applicable)
• Additional engineering design and
operating information for waste storage
structures, transport, and application
system, as applicable. These designs,
and the instructions for operating these
structures, is an integral component of
your overall Nutrient Management/
Waste Utilization Plan.
• Emergency Action Plan to prevent
overtopping or other discharges from
storage structures or facilities, as
applicable.
This plan was developed based on the current
NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal,
state, or local regulations or policies.
Changes in laws or regulations may
necessitate a revision of the plan.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE
UTILIZATION
General
All manure and organic residues must be
applied according to a nutrient management
plan (see the following section, "BASIC
REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT")
You are required to acquire and comply
with all federal, state, or local permit
requirements related to the handling and
application of manure or organic
materials.
The nutrient management/waste
utilization plan must address all organic
waste generated at or brought to the
facility. A Waste Utilization Third Party
Agreement must exist to address all
organic waste not handled by the nutrient
management/waste utilization plan.
Manure or organic wastes will not be
applied to the following areas:
• surface waters,
• wetlands, unless constructed as a
component in a waste treatment
system,
• soils subject to frequent flooding
during the period when flooding is
expected,
• frozen, snow-covered, or saturated
soils,
• within 200 feet of a dwelling other
than those owned by the producer,
• within 100 feet of a well,
• within 25 feet of surface waters, or
• within any other setbacks as identified
by federal, state, or local laws or
regulations (e.g. NC General Statute
prevents swine lagoon effluent from
being applied within 75 feet of a
residential property boundary or
perennial stream or river if the facility
was sited on or after October 1995.)
_ Manure or organic wastes will be applied
in a manner not to reach surface waters,
wetlands (unless constructed as a
component in a waste treatment system),
property owned by others, or public right-
of-way.
Sludge that accumulates in waste storage
structures must be analyzed prior to land
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 2

application. Adequate provisions (available
land and/or third party manure agreements)
must exist to ensure sludge is applied in
adherence to all nutrient application
requirements. All federal and state guidance
regarding the proper testing, handling,
planning, and application of sludge must be
followed for regulated operations.
Since compliance with all applicable North
Carolina laws is the responsibility of the
producer, you should consult the most current
version of the Guidance Memo for
Implementing the Environmental Management
Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste
Management for questions.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED
If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other
organic residues used for feedstock must be
handled in a manner to minimize
contamination and preserve its feed value.
Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be
covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall
develop rations that utilize animal wastes.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY
If your facility is to be used for energy
production, all energy producing components
of the system are included in the Nutrient
Management/Waste Utilization Plan and
provisions for the utilization of residues of
energy production identified. Your Nutrient
Management Plan includes the use of these
residues, if applicable.
The realistic yield expectations (RYEs) in
this plan are based on one or more of the
following:
• Default values approved by the N.C.
Interagency Nutrient Management
Committee that incorporate soil
productivity information, yield data,
and research with North Carolina
soils, and cropping systems.
Additional information on the default
values may be found at:
www.sort.ncsu.edu/n p1ncnmwg index.htm
• Documented actual yield data from
the site, determined by the average of
the highest three yields of the last five
consecutive specific crop harvests.
(For forage crops, determine the
average of the highest three years of
the last five years.)
• A fertilization rate recommended by
North Carolina State University may
be used in cases where no yield data
or approved RYE values exist for a
crop.
• An RYE inferred from a similar crop
on a soil with similar physical and
chemical features may be used for
new crops or in the absence of other
RYE data. This inferred RYE may
ONLY be specified by a certified
Nutrient Management planner.
Erosion, runoff, and water management
controls have been planned, as needed,
on fields that receive nutrients.
Soil Testing
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT This nutrient management plan has been
MANAGEMENT y develo�ed based -on_current-soil-test -
�� --- res lts (no otdolhanlhre-e-ye rs).�
General
Application of nutrients must comply with all
applicable Federal, state, and local laws and
regulations.
Soil samples must be collected and
prepared in accordance with North
Carolina State University or the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services (NCDA&CS)
Agronomic Division standards or
recommendations.
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 3

Soil test analyses can be performed by any
laboratory or program that is certified by the
North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of
Water Quality, Laboratory Section.
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the
Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing.
Growers who utilize other laboratories must
request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology
to ensure the test results are compatible with
North Carolina's nutrient management
planning and assessment tools. For statewide
consistency, all laboratories used must
provide fertilization recommendations using
guidelines and methodologies as referenced
at the NCDA&CS website:
www.ncagr.com. agronomi/obook.htm
Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory
that is supported by field research within the
state.
Soil testing shall include analysis for all
nutrients for which specific information is
needed to develop the nutrient plan.
Plant Tissue Testing
Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall
be done in accordance with North Carolina
State University or NCDA&CS standards or
recommendations.
Manure Testing
Nutrient values of manure and organic by-
products shall he established for planning
purposes based on laboratory analysis,
acceptable default values, or historic records
for the operation.
When determining actual application rates, a
laboratory analysis is required. State
regulations require that waste be tested within
60 days of utilization for some operations. In
the case of daily spreading, the waste must be
sampled and analyzed at least once a year.
Acceptable laboratories include the
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others
certified by the NCDENR_
Field Risk Assessment
A field -specific assessment of the
potential for phosphorus transport from
each field (or groups of similar fields)
have been conducted, using the North
Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment
Tool (PLAT)
PLAT assesses the potential for
phosphorus (P) to be transported from the
site to surface water through each of the
four primary loss pathways:
• sediment -bound P transported
through erosion,
• soluble P transported through
surface runoff,
• soluble P leached through the soil
profile, and
• non -incorporated source P
transported through surface
runoff.
Based on the assessment of each loss
pathway, PLAT produces a single rating
for each field. As shown below, this
rating will identify whether nitrogen or
phosphorus shall be the rate -determining
element in developing the planned
application rate for manure.
PLAT Rating
I Nutrient Application Criteria
LOW
Nitrogen -based manure
application.
MEDIUM
Nitrogen -based manure
application.
HIGH
Manure application limited to
phosphorus removal from site
-An-harvested lagt biomass- -
VERY HIGH
No additions! manure
application to be specified in
plan for the site.
On all sites, regardless of the PLAT
rating, starter fertilizers may be
recommended in accordance with NCSU
guidelines or recommendations.
NC Practice ]ob Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 4

In some cases, specific conservation practices
that reduce the potential for phosphorus
transport have been incorporated into PLAT.
Examples include buffers or filter strips,
ponds, water table management, and residue
management and conservation tillage.
Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or
planned, have been incorporated into your
PLAT analysis. This information is shown on
the PLAT results enclosed. Because the
management of the site actually affects the
PLAT rating, all practices identified on the
PLAT analysis (including any required to
achieve the specified erosion rate) must be
either already installed or included in a
Conservation Plan for the Nutrient
Management Plan to be approved.
Nutrient Application Rates
Recommended nutrient application rates are
based on North Carolina State University or
NCDA&CS recommendations that consider
current soil test results, RYES, and
management.
Liming material shall be applied as needed to
adjust soil pH to the specific range required by
the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum

When the plan is being implemented
on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT
rating of High or Very High), manure
or other organic by-products shall be
applied at rates consistent with the
phosphorus application guidance
below. In such situations, an
additional nitrogen application from
non -organic sources may be required
to supply nitrogen at the rate

NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 5

On all sites, regardless of the PEAT rating,
starter fertilizers containing nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium may be
recommended in accordance with North
Carolina State University guidelines or
recommendations.
A single application of phosphorus applied
as manure or organic by-product may be
made at a rate equal to the recommended
phosphorus application or estimated
phosphorus removal in harvested plant
biomass for the crop rotation or multiple
years in the crop sequence.
• When such single applications are
made, the rate shall:
♦ not exceed the recommended
nitrogen application rate during the
year of application, or
♦ not exceed the estimated nitrogen
removal in harvested plant bio-
mass during the year of application
when there is no recommended
nitrogen application, or
♦ not be made on sites with a Very
High PEAT risk rating.
Potassium Application — Planned
potassium application rates should
match the soil test recommended rates
as closely as possible. (This is
particularly critical in situations where a
potentially harmful nutrient imbalance
in crops or forages may occur, such as
grass tetany). When using manure or
other,organic sources, the addition of
potassium from non -organic sources
may be required.
Other Plant Nutrients - The planned
rates of application of other nutrients if
applicable are consistent with North
Caron na-Stu a University or the
NCDA&CS guidelines or
recommendations.
Nutrient Application Timing
Timing of nutrient application shall
correspond as closely as possible with
plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while
considering cropping system limitations,
weather and climatic conditions, and field
accessibility. Nutrients shall not be
applied to frozen, snow-covered, or
saturated soil.
Manure or organic by-products shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to
planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
For nutrients applied through irrigation
systems, application equipment should be
properly calibrated to ensure uniform
distribution of material at planned rates.
Plan Review and Revision Period
A thorough review and revision (if
needed) of the nutrient management plan
shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not
to exceed five years.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
MINIMIZING DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO
SURFACE AND GROUND WATER
In areas that have been identified as impaired
with agricultural nutrients being a likely
source, an assessment shall be completed of
the potential for nitrogen or phosphorus
transport from the site. (The streams/water
bodies in this category are listed in the USDA-
NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, Section
1.1
❑ NO
This nutrient management plan IS NOT in
an area where surface waters are
impaired, with agricultural nutrients
likely source. The Leaching Index (U)
is included in this plan.
While the results of the I -I does not affect
your planned nutrient application rates,
some additional conservation practices
may be specified in the plan to reduce the
risk of nutrient movement from the field, if
applicable.
IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING
NUTRIENTS
Nitrogen and phosphorus are water
soluble elements and either or both may
be components of organic and inorganic
fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can
move with water as leachate down
through the soil, or over the soil surface
as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and
phosphorus exist in different forms and
may move through different transport
processes on the same site, they both
can have detrimental effects on both
surface and shallow ground water quality.
As an example, excess nutrients can
result in accelerated eutrophication with
severe algal blooms and fish kills.
Because of the topography, hydrology,
and other factors in the state, the
environmental problems from excess
nutrients reaching surface water may not
be exhibited near the contributing source,
but rather create water quality problems
far downstream. Consequently, the
Neuse River Basin, Tar -Pamlico Basin,
the Chowan River, the watershed of the
B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the
watershed of the New River in Onslow
County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive
identified as a likely source. The Lea-chin_g_ waters in North Carolina.
�. Index (LI) is not required.
YES
This nutrient management plan IS in an
area where surface waters are impaired,
with agricultural nutrients identified as a
Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or
organic material is transformed into
nitrate and can move with the water
moving downward into the shallow ground
water and eventually to surface waters.
(Relatively small amounts of nitrogen
reach our surface waters through rainfall
runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 7

required part of the nutrient management plan
in some areas of the state with surface water
impairments. The Ll uses soils information
and local climate data to assess the potential
hazard from leaching of nutrients. The results
of the LI analysis and recommended actions
are included in your nutrient management
plan, if applicable.
Phosphorus: Research in recent decades
indicates that, with high soil phosphorus
levels, phosphorus has more potential to be
transported off -site than recognized in the
past. Phosphorus can be transported in
several ways: (1) attached to soil particles
leaving the field through erosion, (2) in soluble
form leaving the field in surface runoff, and (3)
in soluble form leaching downward through
the soil profile, and eventually into surface
water. Unlike nitrogen, the most likely
transport pathway for phosphorus varies by
site, and depends upon such factors as soil
erosion rate, soil phosphorus levels, texture of
soils, existence of buffers, and other factors.
In N.C., PLAT is the tool used to assess
potential excessive phosphorus losses. The
results of the PLAT analysis and
recommended actions are included in your
nutrient management plan, if applicable.
If a site receives a PLAT rating of Low or
Medium, then applying manure at rates based
on the nitrogen needs of the crop is allowed.
It is important to realize that this may result in
phosphorus being applied at rates that
significantly exceed the crop's phosphorus
removal rate. In these cases, the planned
nutrient application rate is not sustainable,
and eventually a PLAT rating of High may be
reached.
__ OPERATION_S.MAINTENANCE -
You are responsible for safe operation and
maintenance of this practice, including all
equipment. The following Operation &
Maintenance should be conducted;
1 Review the plan annually to determine if
adjustments or modifications to the plan
are needed. (The S.B. 1217
interagency group guidelines
accepted by the N.C. Division of
Water Quality for .0200 operations
specify a plan revision when there are
changes in crops or cropping patterns
that utilize more than 25 percent of
the nitrogen generated by the
operation.) As a minimum, nutrient
management plans shall be
thoroughly reviewed every five years
and revised if necessary. The next
review will be performed in
2. Protect fertilizer and organic by-
product storage facilities from weather
and accidental leakage or spillage.
3_ Ensure proper calibration of
application equipment to ensure
uniform distribution of material at
planned rates.
4. Inspect and maintain the equipment
and facilities used to implement the
Nutrient Management/Waste
Utilization Plan regularly. Any needed
repairs should be made in a timely
manner.
5. Review the Emergency Action Plan, if
applicable, annually.
6. Records should be maintained for five
years, or for a period as required by
other Federal, state, or local
ordinances, or program or contract
requirements. To ensure adequate
information exists to support sound
nutrient management, NRCS
recommends the following records be
—included.
• Soil test results and
recommendations for nutrient
application,
• Quantities, analyses and sources
of nutrients applied (When the
actual rates used exceed the
recommended and planned rates
on inorganic fertilizer plans,

Results of water, plant, and organic by-
product analyses, and
• Dates of review and person performing
the review, and recommendations that
resulted from the review.
NOTE: State laws or regulations may
define record -keeping requirements for
some operations.
i. Ensure that workers are protected from
and avoid unnecessary contact with
inorganic fertilizers and organic by-
products. Protection should include the
use of protective clothing when working
with plant nutrients. Extra caution must be
taken when handling ammonia sources of
nutrients, or when dealing with organic
wastes stored in poorly ventilated
enclosures.
8. Properly dispose of material generated by
the cleaning of nutrient application

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditionE
may result in runoff to surface water t
under DWQ regulations. � � 4

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION k...AN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and.
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, f t3, tons, etc.)

AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR

Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 1075 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 5375
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 17.9166666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land appli�ti�
it is the responsibility of the producer and irri e-signerure
that an irrigation system is installed to properl igate the arj;
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the re nd� r-a5eA0

application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 120.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
4.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Fields 20 and 21 have an existing solid set system. Waste is
applied onto coastal bermuda pasture and in the fall ryegrass is
overseeded. The area is grazed to remove nutrients. Fields 19 and
22 will have waste applied to pasture with a traveling gun.
Fields 23-25 may have waste applied to them if the need arises
due to extreme wet weather or due to a build up of nutrients.

direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who -is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to

APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
CN
Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditionE
may result in runoff to surface waters h-i � �t1a
under DWQ regulations. y 1 �Yr ��
,J
7L' Page.:. _ l

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION 1-yAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, £t3, tons, etc.)
ADC)
.25-T sows x 19.9 tons waste/sows/year = 4975 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
250 sows x 26 lbs PAN/saws/year = 6500 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The. following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving

acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 1075 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 5375
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 17.9166666667 acres of land. -If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land appli g(�ti�
it is the responsibility of the producer and irri d�-s-igner�-7 ure
that an irrigation system is installed to properl igate the acre

In accordance with your application received on February 14, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Serrate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to NCDA
& CS, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWC940021 which expires October 1, 2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Tidewater Research Station, located in Washington County, with an animal
capacity of no greater than an annual average of 120 Non -Dairy cattle and the application to land as
specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC,
you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland
needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper
timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other
by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to
supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the
table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being utilized.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to balance the
nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited
so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. Infiltration
rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that
will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour that maybe applied to
each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum application amount that each field may
receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates
shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this ismot possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a
concem.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity
available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the design
storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a
value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at
which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity,
this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available
storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volurue
of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste
utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the.,waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen
needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass
filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS
Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste
is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season
prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
--------- -------------------- ---....------------------------ ------------- ---------- -- ---------- ---
596400 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 03-19-2002 Specification Page 1 of 4

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
g. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring .
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which

15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers,
toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste
management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all -
disturbed areas {lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such
as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas
where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be
inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A
regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and
other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is
used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied
pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop
season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the
maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.

22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other
restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc
and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop
sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall
be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 15, 17
Fescue: Coastal Plain, Organic Soils.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain tidewater region, tall fescue can be planted Sept. 1 to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to
Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 Ib/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use
certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure
stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Tall fescue will tolerate soil wetness but not flooding or prolonged
saturation; use ladino clover for mixtures on these soils. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime,
phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands
only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150
to 200 lb/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb.
1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical
Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional
information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The following crop note applies to field(s). 16
Cereal/Annual Rye Overseeded — Grazed
CEREAL RYE
The cereal rye should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The
most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod.
If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation
with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be I.5 times the
rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior to August
31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and
October 30. An additional 5019s.acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If rye growth is
harvested on time and does not significantly shade the Bermuda, PAN rates for the subsequent bermuda
crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, which
ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading Bermuda and reducing its yields.
The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced by 25%.
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth.
The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall)
bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed
by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds
should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the
bermuda prior to August 3 I. An application of 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied between September
15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs. acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional
PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a
corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce
bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or
April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To
favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass
canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with
annual ryegrass must be reduced by 25%.

A letter dated Ianuary 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Daphne Cullom on 5/6/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during Iand application_ The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Daphne Cullom the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Daphne Cullom, at 943 Washington
Square Mall, Washington, NC 27889, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Daphne Cullom at [phone]. If within 90 days
you are unable to provide Daphne Cullom with the information you are automatically
required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2
below, within 1 BO days of receipt of this letter.

Category 2:
❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWO will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWO and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland
needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper
timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other
by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to
supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the
table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being utilized.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to balance the
nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited
so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. Infiltration
rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that
will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to
each field selected to receive wastewater. It also Iists the maximum application amount that each field may
receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates
shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be Iimiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied_ On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very highphosphorous levels may also be a
concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity
available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the design
storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a
value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at
which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and Iess than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. if the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity,
this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available
storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume
of the structure. Either of these situations indicates thatthe planned application interval in the waste
utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1, Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen
needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass
filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS
Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5, Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by dislang after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
(. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste
is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season
prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
-------------------------------------------------------------- ......._..._...-... -----..-------------------- -- .----....... ....... ... ...
596400 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 03-19-2002 Specification Page 1 of 4

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
g. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal.
Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial
waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
------------ - --- -- ---------------------------..------------------ -------------------------------.................. ....................
596400 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 03-19-2002 Specification Page 2 of 4

15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". AnimaI
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers,
toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste
management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all .
disturbed areas {lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such
as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas
where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be
inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A
regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and
other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is
used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied
pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop
season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the
maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
..-------------------- ------ -----------------................................ ------------------------ ........................ ..- -... .............
596400 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 03-19-2002 Specification Page 3 of 4

22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other
restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc
and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop
sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall
be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and
waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a
minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste
shall be maintained for a minimum of five years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 15, 17
Fescue: Coastal Plain, Organic Soils.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain tidewater region, tall fescue can be planted Sept. l to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to
Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 301b/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use
certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure
stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Tall fescue will tolerate soil wetness but not flooding or prolonged
saturation; use ladino clover for mixtures on these soils. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime,
phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands
only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150
to 2001b/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb.
1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical
Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional
information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The following crop note applies to field(s): 16
Cereal/Annual Rye Overseeded — Grazed
CEREAL RYE
The cereal rye should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The
most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod.
If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation
with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the
rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior to August
31. An application of 50 Ibs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and
October 30. An additional 50 lbs.acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If rye growth is
harvested on time and does not significantly shade the bermuda, PAN rates for the subsequent bermuda
crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, which
ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading Bermuda and reducing its yields.
The PAN rate for grazed systems with hermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced by 25%. '
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth.
The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall)
bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed
by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds
should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the
bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied between September
15 and October 30. An additional 50 Ibs. acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional
PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a
corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce
bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or
April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To
favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass
canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with
annual ryegrass must be reduced by 25%.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field
in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included.
A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the
manure generated by the operation. Animal operations that generate liquid waste and utilize waste storage facilities (lagoons or holding ponds) may apply more o
less waste in any given year than is annually generated by the facility. In order to determine whether the plan adequately utilizes the waste produced by the
facility, the storage capacity table included in this plan should be reviewed to ensure that the design capacity of the storage facility is not exceeded during the
planning period.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being
utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to .
balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal
waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table.
Infiltration rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must
apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour
that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum application
amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application
rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be
a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage
capacity available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start
date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in
the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility- If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage
capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated.
If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design
storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval
in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
---------------------------------------------------------__-----
290005 Database Version 1.06 Date Printed: 12-20-2000 Specification Page I

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal.
Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1,1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial
waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal

waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such
as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used
on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied
pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop
season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the
maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
290005 Database Version 1.06 Date Printed: I2-20-2000 Specification Page 3

at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless .other restrictions
require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of rive years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a
minimum of five years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 15, 17
Fescue: Coastal Plain, Organic Soils.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain tidewater region, tall fescue can be planted Sept. 1 to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to
Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 lb/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use
certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure
stands, 0.�5" in mixture with clovers. Tail fescue will tolerate soil wetness but not flooding or prolonged
saturation; use ladino clover for mixtures on these soils. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime,
phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands
only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150
to 200 lb/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb.
1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical
Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional
information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The following crop note applies to field(s): 16
Cereal/Annual Rye Overseeded — Grazed
CEREAL RYE
The cereal rye should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The
most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass
sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light
cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be
1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda
prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between
September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs.acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If
rye growth is harvested on time and does not significantly shade the Bermuda, PAN rates for the
subsequent bermuda crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading
or April 7, which ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading bermuda and
reducing its yields. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be
reduced by 25%.
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass should be planted. by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth.
The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall)
bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed
by alight cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds
should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the
bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied between September

15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs. acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional
PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a
corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce
Bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or
April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To
favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass
canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with
annual ryegrass must be reduced by 25%.

Producer: NCDA Tidewater Research Station
The purpose of this plan is to provide guidelines for carrying out
the routine operation and maintenance work needed to keep this beef
cattle waste management system functioning as planned. Routine
maintenance is considered to be normal good care of the system.
Good maintenance adds to beauty, usefulness, and permanence.
A. Maintenance
The routine maintenance of the lagoon involves the following:
1. Maintenance of a vegetative cover on the embankment top and
side slopes: Common Bermuda and fescue are being established
on these areas. Beginning in 1997 and each year thereafter,
the embankment should be fertilized with 800 pounds of 10-
10-10 per acre to maintain a vigorous stand.
2. Control of brush and trees on the embankment. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, or chopping, or a combination of
all three. This will need to be done at least once each
year and possibly twice in years favorable to heavy growth
of vegetation.
Maintenance inspections of the lagoon should be made during the
initial filling of the lagoon and at least monthly. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
1. Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and overflow Pipes
a. separation of joints
b. cracks or breaks
C. accumulation of salts or minerals
d. overall condition of pipes
2. Lagoon surface
. undesirable vegetative growth
b. floating or lodged debris
3. Embankment
a. settlement, cracking
b. side slope stability
C. wet or damp areas on
d. erosion due to lack
wave action
e. rodent damage
or "jug" holes
- slumps or bulges
the back slope
of vegetation or as
a result of
4. Transfer Pump - recycling and irrigation pumps
1

ti
a. overall pump operation
b. leaks
C. loose fittings
5. Surface water diversion
a. adequate vegetation
b. diversion capacity
C. ridge berm height
B. Operation
Your animal waste management facility was designed for a
total of 120 beef cattle feedout operation. The lagoon
contains both permanent and temporary storage. The
permanent storage is not to be pumped in order to ensure
that anaerobic action will occur. The design storage,
includes permanent storage of one cubic foot per pound of
steady state live weight.
The temporary storage portion of the lagoon includes
capacity for the volume of waste produced over 180 days, the
amount of rainfall in a 25 year 24 hour storm event plus an
additional "heavy rain" factor, and rainfall in excess of
evaporation. Your facility is designed for 180 days of
temporary storage; therefore, it will need to be pumped
every six months. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid
level reaches elevation as marked by permanent markers.
Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation as
marked. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time
between these two elevations for operating convenience as
site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and
equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or
leaching.
The attached waste management plan must be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see
Attachment B) before land application. The waste material
should be analyzed before each application cycle to
determine its nutrient content. A soil test of the area of
application should be made annually to insure the waste is
applied as reasonably and practically possible to
recommended rates.
Waste treatment lagoons must be precharged with a volume of
water equal to one-half of the treatment volume before
wastes are introduced. Precharging reduces the
concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon
thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with
effluent at all times.
Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush
water and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below
the surface and as far from the inlet pipes as possible in
2

9/4/96
.1
order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to
reduce odors when irrigating on land. When these pipes are
placed through the embankment, they should be installed no
more than two feet below top of dike and not in the highest
section of fill. The pipe trench should be compacted with
clay material.
After five years the waste treatment lagoon must be checked
for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached
into the treatment volume, the sludge must be removed and
applied at agronomic rates based on analysis of the sludge.
Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free
of sludge at all times.
In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission
(EMC) in North Carolina revised water quality regulations
that address animal operations. These rules became
effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This
animal operation shall be operated within the requirements
of these rules and regulations.

l would like to address your concerns with the beef waste permit application:
1. The lagoon is operated with minimum and maximum pump levels. The lagoon was oversized in
construction because fill material was needed to elevate the building so gravity flow of waste could be
obtained. This is the reason that it can function with limited depth of storage.
2. Because of the necessity of over construction of lagoon volume it gives plenty of
storage capacity. From the waste management plan, there are only two months that do not have at least
180 days of available storage capacity.
3. The confinement times vary depending on the research that is being carried out at the time. The times
will average approximately 7-9 months per group.
If you have any questions please call me so we can discuss them. Thank you very much for your interest in this
operation.
Sincerely,
Ru s Croom

Dear Ms. Nartea:

Assistant Commissioner
Carl V. Tart, Jr.
Director
Enclosed are copies of the calculations for the Beef Cattle Lagoon. When you spoke
recently with Rufus Croom, NRCS, Washington County Technicial Specialist, he told
you that the permanent volume was increased because of the need for additional fill
material on which to construct the building_ I was the station superintendent at the time
this construction occurred and I know this to be a fact. The soil shrink factor was almost
twice what the engineer expected it to be. The lagoon was constructed in 1983. The
structure was and has been acting as a lagoon since that time.
The enclosed profile shows the elevations for the pump. Elevation 18.4 is the maximum
with 16.4 being the minimum. Note that all elevations are assumed elevations_ Also
enclosed are Waste Analysis Reports from 7-20-99 until 7-27-01. Irrigation Field
Records are enclosed from 6-23-99 until 10-23-00. There has been no pumping in 2001.
I believe this to be the information you stated you needed in you letter of July 24, 2001.
If you have questions or need additional information, please let me know. We are
anxious to resolve any questions and get this lagoon properly permitted.

Dear Mr. Smith:
Based on the information you provided on May 23, 2001, your package was sent again for
signature, however the storage issue has not been resolved to the satisfaction of my supervisor, Ms. Sue
Homewood. More clarification is needed on the storage unit of this farm. Please respond to this
additional information request, so we can issue your permit.
Please address the following by August 23, 2001:
1. What is the Minimum pump level set at?
2. What is the Maximum pump level set at?
3. Is the storage structure acting as a waste storage pond, even though you designed it as an
anaerobic lagoon?
4. If your storage structure is being operated as a storage pond, please revise your Waste
Utilization Plan (WUP) to reflect waste storage pond manure N values.
5. If your storage structure is being operated as an anaerobic lagoon, please provide manure
sample analyses, and irrigation records to validate this operation method.

The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a full review of the subject application.
However an item was brought up in the supervisorial review regarding your lagoon and how it fits into
your operation and Waste Utilization Plan. Your response to this additional information request is
required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by June 26, 2001:
Here are my supervisor's comments that you need to explain:
1. Is your lagoon operated with minimum and maximum pump levels?
2. It appears that the lagoon does not have enough useable depth, there is only 7 feet
storage/freeboard depth. How do you manage this lagoon? How does it fit in your manure
storage availability, and manure application schedule?
3. What are the actual confinement times of the beef herd?
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the
technical specialist.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field
in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included.
A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the
manure generated by the operation. Animal operations that generate liquid waste and utilize waste storage facilities (lagoons or holding ponds) may apply more
less waste in any given year than is annually generated by the facility. In order to determine whether the plan adequately utilizes the waste produced by the
facility, the storage capacity table included in this plan should be reviewed to ensure that the design capacity of the storage facility is not exceeded during the
planning period.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being
utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to
balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal
waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table.
Infiltration rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must
apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour
that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also Iists the maximum application
amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application
rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be
a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage
capacity available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start
date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in
the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and Iess than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage
capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated.
If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design
storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval
in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
290005 Database Version 1.05 Date Printed. 12-20-2000 Specification Page 1

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shalt not be applied in faII or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal.
Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1,1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial
waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal

waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such
as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. H animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used
on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied
pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop
season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the
maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested

at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions
require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 15, 17
Fescue: Coastal Plain, Organic Soils.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain tidewater region, tall fescue can be planted Sept. 1 to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to
Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 Ib/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lblac. seed. Use
certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure
stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Tall fescue will tolerate soil wetness but not flooding or prolonged
saturation; use Ladino clover for mixtures on these soils. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime,
phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands
only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150
to 200 lb/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb.
1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical
Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and .Forages in North Carolina for additional
information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The following crop note applies to field(s): 16
Cereal/Annual Rye Overseeded — Grazed
CEREAL RYE
The cereal rye should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The
most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (Iess than 3 inches tall) berrnudagrass
sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light
cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be
1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda
prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between
September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbslacre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If
rye growth is harvested on time and does not significantly shade the bermuda, PAN rates for the
subsequent bermuda crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading
or April 7, which ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading bermuda and
reducing its yields. The PAN rate for grazed systems with Bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be
reduced by 25%.
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth.
The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall)
bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed
by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds
should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The Iast application of animal waste is to be applied to the

15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs. acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional
PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a
corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce
bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or
April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To
favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass
canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with Bermuda overseeded with
annual ryegrass must be reduced by 25%.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 94-21
Washington County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI, IRR2, DRYi, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2,
5LD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water_ The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields where the waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle.
Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can
be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan
in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that
it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based
on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste.
Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities..
Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons
per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land
eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on
saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these
conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DEM regulations. wind conditions should also be considered to avoid
drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste
should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than
30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility_ Acreage requirements should be
based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility.
Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques,
preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for
compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management
commission

* This N is from animal waste only. If nutrients from other sources such
as commercial fertilizer are applied, they must be accounted for. N must
be based on realistic yield expectation.
NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while
meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996, the Costal zone Management
Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of North Carolina to have
a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only
addresses Nitrogen.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly
apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly
dispose of waste, he/she shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written
agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a reasonable
proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application for
the life expectancy of the production facility to secure an update of the
Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase
in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet but not exceed, the Nitrogen
needs for realistic crop yields on soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climate conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of application of other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more
tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that grassfilter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard
393 - Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone
to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the
Technical. Reference - Environment file for guidance.)
7. Liquid Waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off site or to surface
waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during
application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions
conducive to odor or flies
B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the surface is frozen.
5

WASTE UTI.LIZATION PLAN
9_ Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste
nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and
a suitable winter cover crops planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the
crop or forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a Lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any
perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal).
Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial
waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings
other than those owned by the landowner.
14_ Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, draindgeways
or wetlands by a discharge or by overspraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a
land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should
not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall beapplied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
15. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers,
toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste
management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on
all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation
such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas
where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated,
the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution
and erosion.
C

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
i
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be
inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills,
A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and
other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used
on crops for direct human consumption it should be applied preplant with no
further applications of animal waste during the cropping season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment
lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the
markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for
waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be
tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels
in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used
when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records
shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three years. Waste application records for all
other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Senate3tll 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission
on Ag7irltural Waste, was ratified by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996.
This bi required that a properly certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge for each
animalaaste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or
more hoses, 1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste
managreent system.
The dedline for designating an Operator in Charge for animal waste management systems
involvig cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry was January 1, 1997. Because a training and
certifiason program was not yet available for these systems, you were allowed to apply for and
were imed a temporary animal waste management certificate from the Water Pollution Control
Systen0perators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). Because you applied for and were
issuediemporary certificate, you were allowed to be designated as the Operator in Charge of an
animalmste management system.
Your temporary certificate expires December 31, 1997, and is not renewable. Our records indicate
that yoAave not obtained a permanent animal waste management system operator certification. If
you intold to remain, the Operator in Charge of the facility for which you were designated, you must
obtainVermanent animal waste management system operator certification of the appropriate type
before_aur temporary certification expires on December 31, 1997. To obtain a permanent
certifiaron, you roust be 18 years of age, complete ten hours of approved training, and pass an
examiindon. If you do not intend to remain the Operator in Charge, a properly certified animal
waste »agement system operator must be designated as Operator in Charge of the facility prior to
the expi don of your temporary certification.
This yces final training program for both Type A and Type B animal waste management systems
is scheffied for December 10 and 11, 1997, at the Hunt Horse Complex in Raleigh. If you would
like inktation about this training program, please contact your local cooperative extension agent
or cail-ke Ann Cooper at 919/515-6968. For those enrolled in this training and registering with
Ms. Caper prior to December 1, an exam will be offered at the Hunt Horse Complex on December
11, be*ing at 1:00 pro.

RECEIVM
WASHINGTON OFFICE
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an O1C.
A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving
cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain
a permanent certification, you will be raquired to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 199 i . A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to anent the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC, if you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and
returned by December 31, 1996.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919/733-0026.
