Dear Mr. Pate:
NOV 19 1996
PFC-7. OFFICE
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form'must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 919I733-0026.

Facility Number 26-5001
Cumberland County
Dear W. Carey Pate;
During the 1999 session, the North Carolina General Assembly passed a law directing the North
Carolina Department of Environment of Natural Resources (DENR) to develop an inventory and
ranking of all inactive lagoons and storage ponds in the State. In order to meet this directive, a
representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your
property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were
previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at least one year.
The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using
this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as high, medium or low according to- its
potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structure(s) was ranked as
follows:
Structure Number Surface Area (Acres) Rankin
1 0.776 Medium
This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit Changes in
these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your
waste structure(s) in the future.
Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been
provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider
additional requirements for future management of these structures which may include requiring
proper closure of inactive lagoons and storage ponds according to current or alternative standards.

Rating of Potential Risk
Inactive Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Regardless of their ranking, owners of all waste lagoons and storage ponds have certain
management responsibilities. These include taking appropriate actions to eliminate current
discharges, prevent future discharges and to insure the stability of their structures. Staff of the
Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of all inactive structures that have been
determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data
collected by the Department.
All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed
the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or
structure must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical
specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is an
excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, structure
operation and maintenance, and other related animal waste management standards and/or
requirements.
Nothing in this Ietter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for
any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of
surface water or groundwater quality standards.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process. If you have questions concerning
your inactive structures, please contact the staff of either in the Division of Water Quality or the
Division of Soil and Water Conservation in the Fayetteville Regional Office at [phone].

Enclosed is a copy of a form for keeping rainfall and freeboard. Please record lagoon levels at least
once a week and all rainfall events, regardless of size. There are two copies, one to start off and one for
making copies. You can substitute any readable form that contains the same information. Many people use a
calendar or something similar.
In the unlikely event that either lagoon fills up, you are required to have it pumped down by irrigating or a
pump and haul operation. This continues until your lagoons are properly closed out by NRCS. I talked with
Larry Simpson of NRCS and they have been moving slowly on your situation for several reasons, but not
intentionally.

The Animal Feeding Operation Unit of Division of Water Quality's Aquifer Protection Section has received a note
on your annual fee invoice saying your facility has been closed since 2009 and there is no more activity at this
facility.
If you are just waiting for your lagoon to be closed and do not wish to come back in business in the future,
the Division may issue you a zero animal permit until such time as you close your lagoon properly according
to.the NRCS standards. In that case, you will not be held responsible for the annual fees. You will then need
to send a request to this Division to rescind your current permit once the lagoon has been properly closed.
Please place signature and date in the lines below to acknowledge that you are requesting a zero permit for
now and do not wish to come back in business the future.

Dear Mr. Pate,
Enclosed is a copy of your permit and a form for keeping rainfall and freeboard. Since it has been so long
since you were in the hog business, you may not be familiar with the paperwork requirements in your
permit. Please record lagoon levels at least once a week and all rainfall events, regardless of size. If
there is no longer a rain gage on the farm, you can use one at your house, assuming you live very nearby.
You are also required to inspect your waste system after each one (1) inch or greater rainfall, check for
problems, and initial the form. There are two copies, one to start off and one for making copies. You can
substitute any readable form that contains the same information. In the unlikely event that either lagoon fills
up, you are required to have it pumped down by irrigating or a pump and haul operation. This continues
until your lagoons are properly closed out by NRCS.
Use of a private Technical Specialist will probably save you money on the Sludge Management Plan.
While a public Technical Specialist will not charge for the plan itself, he or she is obligated to write a
phosphate -limited plan. This means that the sludge will have to be spread over a lot more acres, increasing
the hauling cost. A private Specialist will write a nitrate -limited plan which will enable more sludge to be
applied per acre. With the high price of fertilizer, it should not be very hard to find someone nearby who
wants sludge, if your own fields are inadequate.

NORTH CAROLINA
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION
DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
INDIVIDUAL SWINE ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PERMIT
In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as
amended, and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
W. Carey Pate
Cumberland County
FOR THE
continued operation and maintenance of an animal waste management system for the Pate Farm, located
in Cumberland County, consisting of zero (0) Swine and the application to land as specified in the
Facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until February 28, 2017 and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. The animal waste management system operated under this Permit shall be effectively
maintained and operated as a non -discharge system to prevent the discharge of pollutants
to surface waters, wetlands, or ditches. Application of waste to terraces and grassed
waterways is acceptable as long as it is applied in accordance with Natural Resources
Conservation Service (MRCS) Standards and does not result in a discharge of waste to
surface waters, wetlands, or ditches. If the Facility has a discharge of waste that reaches
surface waters or wetlands resulting from a storm event more severe than a 25-year, 24-
hour storm, it will not be considered to be in violation of this Permit, as long as the
Facility is in compliance with its CAWMP and this Permit.
2. No discharge of waste shall result in a violation of the water quality standards established
for receiving waters as per Title 15A, Subchapter 2B, Section .0200 of the North Carolina
Administrative Code (NCAC) and Title 15A, Subchapter 2L of the NCAC.
The facility's CAWMP is hereby incorporated by reference into this Permit. The
CAWMP must be consistent with all applicable laws, rules, ordinances, and standards
(federal, state and local) in effect at the time of siting, design, and certification of the
Facility.

4. Any proposed increase or modification to the annual average that exceeds the thresholds
set by North Carolina General Statues (NCGS) 143-215.1 013(1) will require a
modification to the CAWMP and the Permit prior to modification of the Facility.
5. Animal waste shall not be applied within one hundred (100) feet of any well, with the
exception of monitoring wells. The allowable distance to monitoring wells shall be
established on a case -by -case basis by the Division.
H. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
The collection, treatment, and storage facilities, and the land application equipment and
fields shall be properly operated properly and maintained at all times.
2. A vegetative cover shall be maintained as specified in the Facility's CAWMP on all land
application fields and buffers in accordance with the CAWMP. No waste shall be
applied upon areas not included in the CAWMP.
Soil pH on all land application fields must be maintained in the optimum range for crop
production.
4. Land application rates shall be in accordance with the CAWMP. In no case shall land
application rates exceed the agronomic rate of the nutrient of concern for the receiving
crop. In no case shall land application rates result in excessive ponding or any runoff
during any given application event.
5. If manure or sludges are applied on conventionally tilled, bare soil, the waste shall be
incorporated into the soil within two (2) days after application on the land. This
requirement does not apply to no -till fields, pastures, or fields where crops are actively
growing.
6. Pesticides, toxic chemicals, and petroleum products shall not be disposed of in the animal
waste management system.
7. Domestic and/or industrial wastewater from showers, toilets, sinks, etc. shall not be
discharged into the animal waste management system. Washdown of stock trailers
owned by and used to transport animals to and from the Facility only will be permissible
as long as the system has been evaluated and approved to accommodate the additional
volume. Only those cleaning agents and soaps that are EPA -approved according to their
labels, will not harm the cover crop, and will not contravene the groundwater standards
listed in 15A NCAC 2L may be utilized in the Facility covered by this Permit.
Instruction labels are to be followed when using cleaning agents and soaps.
Disposal of dead animals resulting from normal mortality rates associated with the
Facility shall be done in accordance with the Facility's CAWMP and the North Carolina
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) Veterinary Division's
statutes and regulations.
4. Unless accounted for in temporary storage volume, all uncontaminated runoff from the
surrounding property and buildings shall be diverted away from the waste
lagoons/storage ponds to prevent any unnecessary addition to the liquid volume in the
structures.

10. A protective, vegetative cover shall be established and maintained on all earthen
lagoon/storage pond embankments (outside toe of embankment to maximum pumping
elevation), berms, pipe runs, and diversions to surface waters or wetlands. Trees, shrubs,
and other woody vegetation shall not be allowed to grow on the lagoon/storage pond
embankments. All trees shall be removed in accordance with good engineering practices.
Lagoon/storage pond areas shall be accessible, and vegetation shall be kept mowed.
11. At the time of sludge removal from a lagoon/storage pond, the sludge must be managed
in accordance with the CAWMP. When removal of sludge from the lagoon is necessary,
provisions must be taken to prevent damage to the lagoon dikes and liner.
12. Lagoons/storage ponds shall be kept free of foreign debris including, but not limited to,
tires, bottles, light bulbs, gloves, syringes or any other solid waste.
13. The Facility must have at least one of the following items at all times: (a) adequate
animal waste application and handling equipment, (b) a lease, or other written agreement,
for the use of the necessary equipment, or (c) a contract with a third party applicator
capable of providing adequate waste application.
14. No waste shall be applied in wind conditions that might reasonably be expected to cause
the mist to reach surface waters or wetlands.
is. The Permittee shall maintain buffer strips or other equivalent. practices as specified in the
Facility's CAWMP near feedlots, manure storage areas, and land application areas.
16. Waste shall not be applied on land that is flooded, saturated with water, frozen, or snow
covered at the time of land application.
17. Land application of waste is prohibited during precipitation events. The Permittee shall
consider pending weather conditions in making the decision to land apply waste.
18. Land application activities shall cease on any application site that exceeds a Mehlich 3
Soil Test Index for Copper of greater than 3,000 (108 pounds per acre) or Zinc of greater
than 3,000 (213 pounds per acre).
19. Any major structural repairs to lagoons/storage ponds must have written documentation
from a technical specialist certifying proper design and installation. However, if a piece
of equipment is being replaced with a piece of equipment of the identical specifications,
no technical specialist approval is necessary [i.e. piping, reels, valves, pumps (if the
gallons per minute (gpm) capacity is not being increased or decreased), etc.] unless the
replacement involves disturbing the lagoon/storage pond embankment.
M. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
An inspection of the animal waste collection, treatment, and storage structures, and
runoff control measures shall be conducted and documented at a frequency to insure
proper operation For example, lagoons/storage ponds, and other structures should be
inspected for evidence of erosion, leakage, damage by animals or discharge.

2. Highly visible waste -level gauges shall be maintained to mark the level of waste in each
lagoon/storage pond that does not gravity feed through a free flowing transfer pipe into a
subsequent structure. The gauge shall have readily visible permanent markings. The
waste level in each lagoon with a waste level gauge shall be monitored and recorded
weekly on forms supplied by, or approved by, the Division.
A representative Standard Soil Fertility Analysis, including pH, phosphorus, copper, and
zinc, shall be conducted on each application field receiving animal waste at least every
three (3) years. An analysis of the animal waste shall be conducted in accordance with
recommended laboratory sampling procedures as close to the time of application as
practical and at least within sixty (60) days (before or after) of the date of application.
This analysis shall include the following parameters:
Nitrogen Zinc
Phosphorus Copper

loading rates, nutrient loading rates and cropping information. The Permittee shall also
record removal of solids and document nutrient loading rates if disposed on -site or record
the off -site location(s). These records must be on forms supplied by, or approved by, the
Division.
5. If, for any reason, there is a discharge from the animal waste management system
(including the land application sites), to surface waters or wetlands, the Permittce is
required to make notification in accordance with Condition 111. 9. The discharge
notification shall include the following information:
a. Description of the discharge: A description of the discharge including an estimate of
the volume discharged, a description of the flow path to the receiving surface waters
or wetlands and a site sketch showing the path of the waste. Also, an estimation of
the volume discharged.
b. Time of the discharge: The length of time of the discharge, including the exact dates

be waived by the Division Regional Office.

IV. INSPECTIONS AND ENTRY
1. The Permittee shall allow any authorized representative of Department,, upon the
presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law and in
accordance with reasonable and appropriate biosecurity measures, to:
a. Enter the Permittee's premises where the regulated Facility or activity is located or
conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of this Permit;
b. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that must be kept under the
conditions of this Permit;
Inspect, at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and
control equipment), practices, or operations regulated or required under this Permit;
and,
d. Sample or monitor, at reasonable times, for the purpose of assuring permit
compliance, any substances or parameters at any location.
V. GENERAL CONDITIONS
The issuance of this Permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for
compliance with all applicable surface water, wetlands, groundwater and air quality
standards or for damages to surface waters, wetlands or groundwaters resulting from the
animal operation.
The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the
Facility's CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds
must not exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain a 25-year, 24-hour
storm event plus an additional one (1) foot of structural freeboard except that there shall
be no violation of this condition if: (a) there is a storm event more severe than a 25-year,
24-hour event, (b) the Permittee is in compliance with its CAWMP, and (c) there is at
least one (1) foot of structural freeboard.
3. Any containment basin, such as a lagoon or a storage pond, used for waste management
shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of this Permit until
properly closed. When the containment basin is properly closed in accordance with the
Natural Resource Conservation Service (1VRCS) North Carolina Standard for Closure of
Waste Impoundments, February 2005 or any subsequent amendment, the containment
basin shall not be subject to the requirements of this Permit. The Permittee must submit a

A 3, Worksheet for sludge volume and treatment volume Revised August 2008
The average thickness of the sludge layer and the thickness of the existing liquid (sludge -free) treatment zone are determined
from the information on the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form ( Items O and P, respectively). in this example, the average sludge
layer thickness is 2.5 feet and the existing liquid treatment zone is 3.5 feet. If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume,
see notes at end of the worksheet The dimensions of the lagoon as measured and the side slope are needed
for calculations of sludge volume and of total treatment volume. If the lagoon is a standard geometric shape, the sludge
volume and the treatment volume in the lagoon can be estimated by using standard equations. For approximate volumes
of rectangular lagoons with constant side slope, calculate length and width at the midpoint of the layer, and multiply by layer
thickness to calculate layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes, convert the total surface area to a square
or rectangular shape. For exact volumes for lagoons with constant side slope, the "Prismoidal Equations" may be used.

Note: If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume (DSSV), subtract that volume from both the volume
of sludge (Vs) (Rem 8) and from the volume of total treatment zone (Vz) (Item 14), and take the ratio.
Then, R = (Vs-DSSV) ! (Vz - DSSV)
Example: If DSSV = 85,000 ft3, then R = (169,860 - 85,000)1(447,174 - 85,000) = 84,8601362.174 = 0.24.

Appendix 3. Worksheet for sludge volume and treatment volume Revised August 2008
The average thickness of the sludge layer and the thickness of the existing liquid (sludge -free) treatment zone are determined
from the information on the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form ( Items 0 and P. respectively). In this example, the average sludge
layer thickness is 2.5 feet and the existing liquid treatment zone is 3.5 feet. If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume,
see notes at end of the worksheet. The dimensions of the lagoon as measured and the side slope are needed
for calculations of sludge volume and of total treatment volume. -if the lagoon is a standard geometric shape, the -sludge
volume and the treatment volume in the lagoon can be estimated by using standard equations. For approximate volumes
of rectangular lagoons with constant side slope, calculate length and width at the midpoint of the layer, and multiply by layer
thickness to calculate layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes, convert the total surface area to a square
or. rectangular shape. For exact volumes for lagoons with constant side slope, the "Prismoidal Equations" may be used.

Note: If the lagoon has a designed siudge storage volume (DSSV), subtract that volume from both the volume
of sludge (Vs) (item 8) and from the volume of total treatment zone (Vz) (Item 14), and take the ratio.
Then, R = (Vs-DSSV)1(Vz - DSSV)
Example: If DSSV = 85,000 ft3, then R = (169,860 - 85,000)1 (447,174 - 85.000) = 84,8601362,174 = 0,24.

c. Thickness of the sludge layer if making a direct measurement with "core sampler".
F. Lagoon Surface Area (using dimensions at inside top of bank): 1.02 (acres)
(Draw a sketch of the lagoon on a separate sheet, list dimensions, and calculate surface area. The lagoon
may have been built different than designed, so measurements should be made.)
G. Estimate number of sampling points: 916 pts measured
a. Less than 1.33 acres: Use 8 points
b. If more than 1.33 ac. acres x 6 = with maximum of 24.
(Using sketch and dimensions, develop a uniform grid that has the same number of intersections as the
estimated number of sampling points needed. Number the intersection points on the lagoon grid so that data
recorded at each can be easily matched.)
H. Conduct sludge survey and record data on "Sludge Survey Data Sheet' (Appendix 2). Also, at the
location of the pump intake, take measurements of distance from liquid surface to top of sludge
layer and record it on the Data Sheet (last row); this must be at least 2.5 ft. when irrigating.
I. At the time of the survey, also measure the distance from the Maximum Liquid Level to the Present Liquid
Level (measure at the lagoon gauge pole): 0.6
J. Determine the distance from the top of bank to the Maximum Liquid Level 1.6
(use lagoon management plan or other lagoon records)
K. Determine the distance from the Maximum Liquid to the Minimum Liquid level: 2.0
(use lagoon management plan or other lagoon records)
L. Calculate the distance from the present liquid surface level to the Minimum Liquid Level 1.4
(Item K Minus Item I, assuming the present liquid level is below the Maximum Liquid Level)
M. Record from the Sludge Survey Data Sheet the distance from the present liquid surface level to the
lagoon bottom (average for all the measurement points) 6.4
N. Record from the Sludge Survey Data Sheet the distance from the present liquid surface level to the top
of the sludge layer (average for all the measurement points): 3.3
O. Record from the Sludge Survey Data Sheet the average thickness of the sludge layer: 3.1
P. Calculate the thickness of the existing Liquid Treatment Zone (Item N minus Item L): 1.9
Q. If Item O is greater than Item P, proceed to the Worksheet for Sludge Volume and Treatment Volume.
if item u is equal to or less than Item P, you do not have to determine volumes.

Appendix 3. Worksheet for sludge volume and treatment volume Revised August 2008
The average thickness of the sludge layer and the thickness of the existing liquid (sludge -free) treatment zone are determined
from the information on the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form ( Items 0 and P, respectively). In this example, the average sludge
layer thickness is 2.5 feet and the existing liquid treatment zone is 3.5 feet. If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume,
see notes at end of the worksheet. The dimensions of the lagoon as measured and the side slope are needed
for calculations of sludge volume and of total treatment volume. If the lagoon is a.standard geometric shape, the -sludge
volume and the treatment volume in the lagoon can be estimated by using standard equations. For approximate volumes
of rectangular lagoons with constant side slope, calculate length and width at the midpoint of the layer, and multiply by layer
thickness to calculate layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes, convert the total surface area to a square
or rectangular shape. For exact volumes for lagoons with constant side slope, the 'Prismoidal Equations" may be used.

Note: If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume (DSSV), subtract that volume from both the volume
of sludge (Vs) (Item 8) and from the volume of total treatment zone (Vz) (Item 14), and take the ratio.
Then, R = (Vs-DSSV) ! (Vz - DSSV)
Example: If DSSV = 85,000 ft3, then R = (169,860 - 85,000)1 (447,174 - 85,000) = 84,8601362,174 = 0.24,

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 eropland 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.

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).
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.
----- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
928307 Database Version 3.0 Date Printed. 1/29/2004 Specification Pap-e f

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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
928307 Database Version 3.0 Date Printed: 1/29/2004 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 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.

The following crop note applies to field(s): 2-3
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Well Drained to Excessively Drained
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
En the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and
wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a
rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing
conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at Ieast 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced 1' to 1.5' in row.
For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Sulfur will be needed on
deep sands with high leaching. Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in the establishment year in split applications in
April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 2401b/ac N annually in split applications, usually in
April and following the first and second hay cuts. For better soils the N rate can be increased to 300
lb/ac. Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and
Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional
agronomist or extension agent for assistance.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 5
Small Grain. Coastal Plain, Organic Soils
In the Coastal Plain, oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30; and rye from
October 15-November 20. For barley, plant 22 seed/drill row foot and increase the seeding rate by 5% for
each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable
seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the
initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and
rye at 1-1 1/2 bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is
essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to
select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more
than 30 Ibs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at
this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March.

rye at 1-1 1/2 bushels/acre. Plant al these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is
essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to
select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more
than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this
time. The recommended rate of potash should be split with 1/2 applied at planting and the other 1/2
applied when the N is topdressed in the Spring. The remaining N should be applied during the months of
February -March. The total N needed is dependent on the soil type. Apply sulfur at the rate of 5 lbs/acre at
planting and another 20 lbs/acre with the topdress N. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing
season to monitor the nutrient status of the oats, barley and rye. Timely management of diseases, insects
and weeds are essential for profitable oat, barley and rye production.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: Carey Pate
Location: RR 7 Box 173A
Fayetteville NC 28306
Telephone: [phone]
Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 1700,00 hogs
(Design Capacity)
STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon
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 recuired for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be aDclied.
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 conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 changina 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, ft3, tons, etc.)
1700 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 3230 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
1700 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 3910 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.

Indicates that this field is being over -seeded (i.e. _nterplanted) or
winter annuals follow summer annuals.
In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded
in bermudagrass), forage must be removed thrcugh grazing,
hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed
when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle
should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four
inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed
for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small
grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too
high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced
yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than
cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as
is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small
grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or
silage two to three times during the season, depending on
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late
September or early October. Drilling is recommended over
broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a
height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

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 629 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3145
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 10.4833333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 25.16 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 253 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 application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

* This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil
assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over
applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot
be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 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.

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 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 Flan 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.
?. 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
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 or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the 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.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 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 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,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
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 shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges 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 he applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from
your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off
site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters
or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. -
You should make every effort to ensure that this does not
happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible
location for all employees at the facility. The following
are some action items you should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the
situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested
responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a.
Add
soil to berm to increase
elevation of dam.
b.
Purmo
;wastes to fields at an acceptable
rate.
c.
Stcn
all flows to the lagoon
immediately.
d.
Call
a pumping contractor.
e.
Make
sure no surface water is
entering lagoon.
B: Runoff from waste application field -actions
include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
C. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that
caused the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields
where runoff occurred.
C: Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action
include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
C. Close valves to eliminate further discharge.

-- d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D: Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid
separators -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
C. Make sure no siphon occurs.
d. stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or
solid separators.
e_ ,Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
E: Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. often
this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -
possible action:
a. Dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage,
put in a submersible pump, and pump back to
lagoon.
b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap
or remove animals and fill holes and compact
with a clay type soil.
C. Have a professional evaluate the condition of
the side walls and lagoon bottom as soon as
Possible.
2., assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious
damages.
a. Did the waste reac:I any surface waters?
b. AQProximately how much was released and for what
duration?
C. Any daiage noted, such as employee injury, fish
kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface
waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach
surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off
of the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3: Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ
(Division of Water Quality) regional office; Phone
91®- 486-1541 . After hours, emergency number: 919-
733-3942. Your phone call should include: your
name, facility, telephone number, the details of

of the facility, the location or direction of
'movement of the spill, weather and wind conditions.
The corrective measures that have been under taken,
and the seriousness of the situation.
b_ If spill leaves property or enters surface waters,
call local EMS Phone number 919-678 -7688 .
C. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department.
d. Contact CES, phone number 919- 484- 7156, local SWCD
office phone number 919-484 -8939 , and local MRCS
office for advice/technical assistance phone number
919-484 -8939 .
4: If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriff's
Department and explain your problem to them and ask
that person to contact the proper agencies for you.
5: Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair

Feed storage • Accumulations of feed ❑ Reduce roisture accumulation within and around
residues immediate perimeter of feed storage areas by
ensuring drainage is away from site and/or
providing adequate containment (e.g., covered bin
for brewer's grain and similar high moisture grain
�,)�°ducts)
El Inspect for and remove or break up accumulated
solids in filter strips around feed storage as needed
Animal holding • Accumulations of animal ❑ Eliminate low areas that trap moisture along fences
areas wastes and feed wastage raid other locations where waste accumulates and
disturbance by animals is minimal
Maintain fence rows and filter strips around animal
holding areas, to minimize accumulations of wastes
(i.e., inspect for and remove or break up
accumulated solids as needed)
Dry manure • Accumulations of animal ❑ Remove spillage on a routine basis (e.g.,
handling systems wastes 7- to 10-day interval during summer; I5- to 30-day
interval during winter) where manure is loaded for
land application or disposal
❑ Provide for adequate drainage around maiitire
stockpiles
❑ Inspect for and remove or break tip accumulated
wastes in filter strips around stockpiles and manure

INTRODUCTION
Mr. Cary Pate, Cooperator
of the Cumberland SWCD, has requested
the assistance for planning,
design and layout of a swine waste manage-
ment system. Mr. Pate's
operation is located in Greys Creek off SR 2233
near Cape Pear Church.
(See Saint Pauls Quadrangle Coordinates 340 54'
and 78o 49.59.
SITE CONDITIONS
This operation is not located within 1000 feet of any residence.
A slotted floor system will be used to collect the waste from the
finishing operation. The soil type at the site is Lakeland loamy sand.
The A horizon is loamy sand to sand (Sri) 0-3`. The B horizon texture
runs from SP to SC material. The site has few limitations for use as
a holding pond, if care is taken not to cut through the CH material
at elevation 42.00.
DESIGN
The landowner plans to finish 1200 hogs at this site. The finish-
ing houses with slotted floors will be emptied once monthly or as often
as needed. The volume for this holding pond storage includes wAnte
geiiornt ion C I un 7 "? f t .,;/hoj; for home treatment-, plus excess rainfall of
1211 and a 25 year 24 hour storm with 2' freeboard and 1�:l side slopes.
The landowner plans to i`rribate the adjourning 32 acres of cropland.
This system is designed so that no discharge will be allowed to enter
2 surface water.
PROPOSED PLAN

It is better Eto load in.spring months when
i K;
.temperature
is above 45° F. 'and the bacteria are more active.
3. Full loading will occur when the elevation reaches 49.20.
4. When the fluid reaches 49.20 begin draw -down to elevation
45.00 by irrigating crops in adj u n g fields.
5. All exposed areas will be seeded to grass and maintained
as needed. This area should be fenced off for safety
reasons and danger signs posted around holding pond.
PLAN FOP. MAIh"TENANICE
1. Keep vegetation around holding pond and adjacent areas mowed.
Date:
2. Repair any eroded or bare areas with vegetation.
3. Apply 500 lbs. of 10-10-10 fertilizer as needed to maintain
good cover.

SHEET 1 OF 2
SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
----------------------------------------------------------
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
-----------------------
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
-----------------------------------
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines,
grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over
6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill
shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer
will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method.
Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed using the more impervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for
settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment
capacity of 14 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC
Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation
from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.4 ft.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT.
When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over -
excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled
as specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH).
REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.

SHEET 2 OF 2
Soil liner material shall come from an approved morrow area. The
minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture
content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded
in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water
shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the
liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab-
blished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant.
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
included with this Construction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
--------------
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
-------------------------------
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

SHEET 1 OF 2
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
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.
Land application of waste •Hater is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. .Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 48.1 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 46.6 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 52322.1 cubic feet or
391369 gallons.

SHEET 2 OF 2
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the
liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab-
blished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant.
when these are specified, additional construction specifications are
included with this Construction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
--------------
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
-------------------------------
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.
