Animal Waste Management System
Sampson County
Dear Herbert Grimes Bowden:
In accordance with your application received on 15-Dec-06, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Herbert .Grimes Bowden, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and landapplication of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the Herbert G Bowden Farm, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of
no greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 2880 Boar/Stud: 0
Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0
Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0
If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows.
Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows
may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009 and replaces the NPDES
COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue
conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension
in Condition III.19 does not apply.
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. Enclosed for your convenience is
a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pap
careful attention to the record kegpina_and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .0111(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall
continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS
standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified r aLe.: to prevent pollution of. surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be uze
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
:y'1-ast.e and to enLure that it is applied in are environdentally Ale
manner:
1. Always :apply waste based on the needs of the crap to be grown
and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply • more
nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2:. Soil types Ere important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, watiota exchange c pac'iLies, and
available water holding capacities:.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to band eroding at more
than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding .:at 5 or more tons per acre p nnu,al ly, but less, than
10 tons per acre per year providing- that adequate filter
ati i pa. are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated sails., when it U raiding, or
when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may
in runc.ff Lo tha surface water, which is not allowed under DWG!
regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be con8idered to avoild drift and
downwind odor problems..
G. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crap production and
to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be
applied to :-a growing crop or applied not more than 30 dRECENEDIDENRIDWQ
prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. AgW&Pm1dionsecuotl
Injecting Lhe waste or disking will conserve nuh_l.ients and MAR �7 2QOg
reduce udor• problems.
This plan is based on the w::a8t.e application method shown above. If
you choose to changa methods in the futures you need to revise:

and the crop type. Lima must be applied to maintain pH in the

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

ha appiicat.wr is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while
meeting t.ha N requirements, In the future, regulations may require
farmers in some parts; of North Carolina to have a nutrient
rman.agement plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only
addresses: nitrogen.
In inLerplanted fields (i.e. :mall grain, eta:, interseeded in
barsmudagrass), forage &ust be removed through 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 to let emall. 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
be.rmudragrrass. This loss of ;stand will re:zult .in reduced yields and
leas nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for
tray or silage just i:rT:Lore heading as is the normal actuation, you
are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may wcanL to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the
season, depending can time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplcant small grain, etc, is late SeptGmbe.r
or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting.
Ber mudagias,s, shoold be grazed or mowed to a height of about two
.kiii':hes belore drilling for beat r l.sultz.
Caution musL be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
under at:,re&sed conditi.crr"i_f-.+. Nitrate poisoning may occur- in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay Tor- nitrate levels is
recommended.
Acres shown :in the tables are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers , filter strips along d.it•ches, odd
areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
dares in the field listed may, and trust likely will be, more than
Lhe acres: shown in the tables.
See,_ attached map showing the fields to be: used for the utilization
of animal write.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must. con Lain provision for' periodic
l::it:d application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge: will be
nutrient rich and will require precautionary measure6 to prevent
over application of nutz ients or other elements. Your production
facility will produce approximately 1.037 lbs. of plant:. available
nit.x`o gee per year in the sludge.
If you ,.^ewuvw sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately
5184 lbs. of PAN to "Lilize. Caseurming you apply this PAN to
hybrid ber ruclagrans hayland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen
per acre, you will need 17 acres of land. If you apply the

.APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the .in Lake rate
of the soil at. the Lime of irrigation such that runoff or ponding
occurs. This rate is limit ea by initial soil moisture content,
soil structure, sail texture, water droplet size, and organic
solids. Thi application amount should not exceed the available
water holding capacity of the sail 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
Man, .it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation
designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to.
properly inriyate t:.he acres shown in tables. Failure to apply, the
r'E'.C:o]'flliended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in this table may
make this plan invalid.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 6
Plans and 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. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either has owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement 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. 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, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when the
wind -is blowing.
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 NRCS 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 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 conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
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 no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 (lagccn 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.
Page: 10

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
16. 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 preplant 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
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 (3)
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.

Dear Paul,
I have been contacted by two swine producers that were inspected by you
recently. Both were concerned about changing a nitrogen rate on their small
grain overseed. The two producers were Sam Anders (82-331) and Herbert
Bowden (82-186). Their farms were both grandfathered at the time of
certification with an existing WUP and to my knowledge they received their
general permits without any changes.
Both farms have had wettable acre determinations. To my knowledge,` a nitrogen
rate change is not required for these farms since these nitrogen rates were already
in their plans at the time they were certified.
This issue needs to be addressed if it hasn't already. To my knowledge, this
would be precedent setting if these rates are changed without a problem or
deficiency on these farms.
Sincerely,
Dan Bailey

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
----------------------
Owners name --:Herbert Bowden
Mail Address-:11294 Hobbton Hwy
Type of production unit---- :Feed -Fin
Number of animal units-----: 2880
County:Sampson
Type of waste facility ----- :Anaerobic Lagoon
Temporary storage period ---: 180 days
Method of application ------ :Irrigation
Amount of animal waste produced-----------------: 5472 tons/year
Amount of plant available N produced -by animals-: 6624 lbs./year
Commercial N to apply on planned acreage----.-- 0 lbs./year
Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically
developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the
soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for
your particular operation. The waste 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
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 and annual soil tests
are 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 and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 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 �o
surface waters. 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
not -more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

Page 2
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis
report for your waste management facility.

If more commercial fertilizer is used than shown in this plan,
then additional acres of land may be needed. A three to fifteen
feet wide permanent grass filter strip should be seeded along all
ditches in fields that receive animal waste.

I understand that I must own or have access to equipment,
primarily irrigation equipment, to land apply the animal waste
described in this waste utilization plan. This equipment must be
available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge
occurs from the lagoon in a 25-year 1-day storm event. I also
certify that the waste will be applied on the land according to
this plan at the appropriate times and at rates that no runoff
occurs.

❑ Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after
knowledge of the death. The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing
stream or public body of water.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-I68.7
❑ Complete incineration
❑ In the case of dead poultry only, placing in a disposal pit of a size and design
approved by the Department of Agriculture
❑ Any method which in the professional opinion of the State Veterinarian would
make possible the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering

is plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your
oration are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should
T wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to
asider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
sure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an
cessible location for all employees at the facility. The following
e some action items you should take.
Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may
or may not be possible. Suggested responses to problems are
listed below:
Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam, any
permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a
qualified technical specialist.
b. Pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate.
c. Stop all additional flow to the lagoon -hold waste in the
house if possible.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
Runoff from waste application field -action include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the
waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the
runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where
runoff occurred.
Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers --action include:
a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
Leakage from flush system, houses, solids separators -actions
include:
a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure no siphon effect has been created.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid
separators.
e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.

Leakage from baae or aidewall of lagoon. Ofi;wn -Oilw 10 opopgdp
as opposed to flowing leaks -possible action:
Dig a small sump or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a
submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon.
If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove
animals and fall holes and compact with a clay type soil.
Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side
walls and the lagoon bottom as soon as possible.
ess the extent.of the spill and note any obvious damages.
Did the waste reach any surface waters?
Approximately how much was released and for what
duration?
Any damage noted, such as.employee injury, fish kills, or
property damage?
Did the spill leave the property?
Does the spill have the potential to reach surface
waters?
Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach
surface waters?
Are potable water wells in.danger (either on or off of
the property)?
How much reached surface waters?

Narrative . of Irrigation System Operation
According to the data furnished by the Owner(s) and the affiliated companies the following- is an overall description of the system to
include procedures of operation such ' as start-up, shut -down, winterization, and regular maintenance of the equipment.
This operation contains 4 buildings with a capacity of 2880 animals.
The annual plant available nitrogen (PAN) produced by this operation will be 6624 pounds.
This system is designed to effectively wet 17.8 acres of land. As usual, more land will be receiving water but is not counted as
total "wetted acres".
This system contains 960 LF of 6 inch PVC (SDR 21) with 4 hydrants.
There are 7 separate zones from these hydrants.
Care should be taken when starting the pump unit to allow all lines to fill slowly so as to allow the air to escape from the lines.
After this process, the motor rpm's should be slowly increased to obtain the desired system pressure. Failure to allow the entrapped
air to escape before increasing the motor speed may cause damage to the system.
Shut down procedures should be the reverse of start-up. The operator should slowly decrease the motor speed to idle and then
shut it off.
All regular and seasonal -maintenance should be performed according .to manufacturer's recommendations.
Pumps and travelers should be drained prior to freezing temperatures:

THRUSTBLOCKS3
Thrust blocking prevents main tine from moving when the pressure load is applied. In ef-
fect, the thrust. block transfers the load from the pipe to a wider load bearing surface. Thrust r_
Nocks are required where fittings are used to change the direction (i.e., at all ties, elbows, wyes,
.:aps, valves, hydrants and reducers) of the pipeline. The thrust backing must be formed against
a solid trench wall and these fitting areas must be excavated by hand because mechanical
equipment will damage the bearing surface of the trench wall.
The size and type of thrust block depends on pipe size, line pressure, type of fitting, degree
of bend and type of soil. In most cases, the size and type of thrust block will be determined by
the engineer. Thrust block size may be calculated by the procedures shown:
STEP 1. Multiply the pipe pressure by the appropriate value shown in the following table to get pounds
thrust per psi working pressure.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular,
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use,
nozzle wear results in an increase' in the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least 'once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a,graduated scale from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction
of pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both
sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all
nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You- should contact your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

As you can see., this formula is quite complicated. Figure 4 is a chart showing pressure losses and
velocity for various pipe sizes at various gallon ages (NOTE: Chart is for class 160 PVC with'a C. Value
of 150).
EXAMPLE
Pipe PVC (Class 160)
.Size. = 10"•
GPM 1000.GPM
Length'of Mainline = 1300'
From the chart, we find the PSI loss per 100' .21 x 1300' = 2.73 PSI over. 1300'•of run'
100,
Head - 2.73 x 2-31 = 6.28' of head over 1300' of run
Velocity (V) - 4.15 ft/second
We -can use the chart along with the conversion factors list on Fgtlre 4 fo determine friction lass .
for steel; aluminum -and asbestos cement.
EXAMPLE: '
Pipe = Steep
Size _ 1,0"
GPM = 1000
Length' = 1300'
Friction -loss i ' 1300' PVC- 273 PSI' 6.30' head
Factor for steel x212. x212
Friction loss for 1300' of steel - 5.78 PSI or 13.36' head•
Velocity (V) = 4.157sec. (same as PVC in previous example)
A RalnBlyd slide rule makes this determination very rapidly without need for calculation.
,after obtalning the friction loss per 100 foot of pipe and multiplying this by the.feet of pipe dfvid-
.,ed by 100; the total pipeline friction loss is known and can be used in' the total head determina-
(on as well as compared economically for proper pipe size. .
You may incur Instances where either the -chart In Figure 4 orthe Rain Bird slide rule cannot
s used- It will then be necessary to calculate the friction loss and velocity. To do this, use the
_ )rmula In Figure 5.

MAINLINE REQUIREMENTS
The connecting link between the pump, and the irrigation system is the mainline. Mainline material
is normally steal, aluminum with couplers; cement asbestos or plastic. Sizes can range from 5'•' to"48"
lus. The following information may be used as a guide. Please consult with manufacturer for specific
design and installation information.
Generally with center pivot, a water source at the pivot is most convenient. When water is unavail-
able at the pivot, a mainline pipe is often used to connect the pivot to the water supply. To avoid in.
terference with farm operations and drive unit crossing, the mainline is generally buried.
The proper size of mainline is a decision of economics. Whenever the yearly cost of owning a larger
pipe size is greater than the yearly pumping cost for pumping through the next.smaller,pipe size; then
one should use. the smaller size pipe. A good rule of thumb would be not to exceed a velocity of water
in the pipe. of five (5) feet per second. Water velocity in feet per second in a pipe can,be determined
by the following formula:
Mainline Water Velocity
V (0.408) (GPM)
t72
iNhere V velocity in feet per second, GPM = gallons per minute, and D- = inside diameter of circular
conduit in' inches'.
Pipe thickness or class should be selected to handle the highest pressures likely to be,encountered.
decause-of the variable pressure operation of."the corner system; the -mainline. pipe -should be designed
to operate at a' pressure of ,30-40 PSI greater than the selected pivot' pressure:' The selection ,of flat
j.mp curves will be helpful in reducing the pressure fluctuations :with the corner systerri.
FRICTION LOSS 1N. PIPE. ;
Water flowing in a pipeline is always accompanied by a loss -of pressure due to friction. The
!gree.or amount of loss depends :on :the smoothness of rthe inside, of -the .pipe- walls, the
,-ameter of the pipe,Ahe velocity,r the. quantity of"water flowing in the pipe.
Friction factors of pipe are determined by -experiments. Every.type of material pipe is made
-m (steel, PVC, etc.) has different friction loss characteristics,
The Hazen and Williams formula is the basis for marry friction. foss calculations. Frictlon
A(F) is in units of "feet per 100 foot of pipe." Dividing by 231- feidtion loss is converted to
BSI per 100 foot of pipe."

Improved Design Provides G1•eater Operator Control
Greater control more accurate ipplication of both dean and
wastewater. Simpler to operate the smooth operation of the six
,peed gearbox eliminates
the need for multiple belts
and pulleys while providing
i lull range of operating
speeds. Within a high and
low range there are three
peeds for increased preci-
ion and accuracy in con-
trolling application rates.
'mowing and controlling
our application rates have
oecome cruCial wastewater Six'speed gearbox
management tools when
ying to adhere to ever increasing regulations. Each model is
vaiiable with the standard 5.5 HP Honda engine or the efficient
Pelton Wheel slurry

areas such as tanks
i and/or lagoons. The
Pelton Wheel turbine
can be mechanically
compensated for
accurate applications
` or equipped with the
optional Irrigation

This improved design
manly starts with the drive system. Other enhancements include:
• A constant pressure automatic braking system which
creases tension when the hose is being pulled out but reverts to
jhter tension as the hose is being retrieved.
• A positive action lock down. When engaged, this simple
ake will lock the reel in place when shifting the gearbox to neutral,
well as secure the reel for transport when desired.
• A miswind sensor. Should a miswind irregularity ever occur,
this sensor will automatically disengage the drive, protecting the
Reel Rain from damage.
• Large selection of models. In an effort to offer customers
the proper system for their irrigation needs, Reel Rain models are
available in 29 different hose size I drive platform configurations.
• Increased

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Froper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
,Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant.(such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summerfearly fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage.. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capac it , before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods'.
Overilow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a vio'ation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers, The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlied. This may be
done by mowing, Spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes —look for:
1. separation of joints
2, cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

"'N
Lagoon surface—Icok for:
1 • undesirable vegetative gro�vth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment ---look for:
1 settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2 side slope stability— 5;Ljmps or auiges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
.4• erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a resit of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon, dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potentia! damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles iri the !aaoon may be
used to reduce the wave irnpacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and w he ,
any of these features, you should catl an appropriatekex^or•ot t. ar -jam. 'r `our lagoon has
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to proyi a aptemporary 'Nx i ther_ ;5 of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should breviewed by ties " thr, at
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with, heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not oe conduc-ted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps --check for proper operation of,-
1 . recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Ceck for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in reed or repair or
replacement.
ivQT�: Pump' systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. you should perfor-n your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly ful! lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or bcrrowing pumps. Probably, if our lagoon is full,
Your neighbor's lam v a,, � Y g 000n is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to ca►m• all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfali runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoft� away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
"ou should inspect your diversion system for the folio -,-ling:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3.1 ridge berm he;ght

identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your' system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping).' This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(y.ou must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may .
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land. '
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
I . Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, takingcare not to erode lining or bank slopes,
.3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
S. it is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.23 percent of the full lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH fails below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 7 pound per `000 dubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.3 and-8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems. that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.
.1

Management:
Practice water conservation --minimize building water -usage and
spillage from !eaking waterers,' broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Wnimize feed wastage and spiflage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
vtiiil reduce the amour -it of solids entering the lagoon
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
t7e full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimurn liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Jtart irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based an
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
Will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level Shou,'d never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest
point of the dam or en:dankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
s::rface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint controi near lagoon edges.
Do not a!iow trees or large bushes to grow or, lagoon yarn or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
VI or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
if animal production is Eo be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure p.an to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can he reduced by:

: proper lagoon Sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravjty settling of flushed waste solids in ar, appropriately designed 'basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annuatlyr rather than stored long ter.^, will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to'- properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator. _
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impe.Her
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby crol-I!anL;
and soil incorporate.
. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irriga*ion onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining Sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; ha:jl
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. "
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland;dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater, haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited. by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that fie'.d and crop
,requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
Whenremoving sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that'the lagoon liner remains
intact. i` you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immed+ately and no,, rc,ume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it shou:a probably ce applied to lard with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soli -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lagoon smudge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The appi!cation of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors. -

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Plans and Specifications
PAGE 6
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. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10 , 000' par "day ,by th-e. Division
of Environmental Management for every dayl�he discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either has owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement 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. 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, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource _ -
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and approp to filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves -the filter
strips will be in addition to "Buff '��uzred by DEM.
(See FOTG Standard 393 Filter S�gog and t&ndard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers). C 11
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting thAwastepp0'1.sking after
waste application. Waste should not b��Lied when the
-wind is blowing. N9�
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 NRCS 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 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 conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
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 no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered.

• WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 cr discharge.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
16. 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 preplant 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
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 (3)
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.
