The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the exop can utilize.
2, Soil types are important as they have different infiltration ratM 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 torts 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.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problem.
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.
I of 8

This plan is based an the waste application method shown above. If you choose tD 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 on typical nutrient content
for this type of feefty. 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 fladble so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specilic crop production.
This waste utilization plan, V carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Comn*sion.

This plan does not include commercial fertikzer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be.over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nubients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermuda), forage must 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 let small grain reach maturity. especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately Interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utifted. 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 the
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 cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

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 1152 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 5760 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 19 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 46.08 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal,
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 conteK soil
struchrre, 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 the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
*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 maodmum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stared 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 the tables. 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 prior to applying the waste.

Additional Comments:
This plan revised to show cropping system change to include a two year crop
rotation of 00M, wheat and soybeans in fields 8 & 9. Using this rotation will
require that all of the bermuda be overseeded with a small grain each year.
The gnywer may use either of the following options concerning the small grain -
OPTION # i: Use the higher rate of 100 Ibs N/ac and follow the pumping
windows as shown for the total acreage of small grain.
OPTION # 2: Use the higher rate of 100 lbs N/ac and follow the pumping
windows as shown for at least 2 acres, and use the noffnal rate of 50 Ibs Wac
with the pumping window of Sept. -April for the remaining acreage of small grai
The small grain is to be cut for hay for efther option.
NOTE: When using the higher rate on the small grain, apply 1/2 ofthe total
nitrogen during the Sept. I S-Ocl. window and the remaining 1/2 during the
Feb -March window. Also, the small grain must be removed from the field no
later than April 7.
The acres shown in this plan are wetted acres.

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 the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
*This is the maximurn 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 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months- In no instance should the volume of the
waste 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 the tables. 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 prior to applying the waste.

Additional Comments:
This plan revised to show croe2i!M system change to include a two year Crop
rutation of corn, wheat and soybeans in fields 8 & 9. Using this rotation will
require that all of the beffnuds be overseeded with a small grain each year.
The grower may use either of the following options concerning the small grain.
OPTION#1: Use the higher rate of 100 lbs N/ac and follow the purnpim
windows as shown for the total acreage of small grain.
OPTION 0 2: Use the higher rate of 100 lbs M/ac and follow the pumping
windows as shown for at least 2 acres, and use the normal rate of 50 lbs N/ac
with the pumping window of SS�April for the remaining acreage of small grai
The small grain is to be cut for hay for SRqSL21�ion.
NOTE: When using the h!pter rate on the small grain, apply 1/2 of the total
nitrogen dud92 the Sept. 1 S-Oct. window and the remaining 1/2 during the
Feb -March window. Also, the small -grain must be removed from the field no
later than April 7.
The acres shown in this plan are wetted acres.

David McLean Farm
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Robeson County
Dear David McLean Jr.:
On March 14, 2003, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued an NPDES General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued to enable swine facilities in North Carolina to
obtain coverage under a single permit that addresses both State and Federal requirements.
In accordance with your application received on December 30, 2002, we are hereby forwarding to you
this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to David McLean Jr., authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES
General Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your COC Number
AWS780084 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the David McLean Farm, located in Robeson County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 3200 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in
the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). 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,

to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields wherr4
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses n"en as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that ail plard
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are Impodant 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
oontent of the waste. Do not apply mom nitirogen 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. Noffnally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 6 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate fifter 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 91hrmw
under DWQ regulatim.
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 wage or
diskft will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

The appkaW is cautioned that P and K may be.over applied %yhile meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses n&ogen-
In interplanted fields ( i.e. smiall grain. etc, interseiWed In bermuda), forage must be reMOVed
through grazing, hay, andfor silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of sb(to nim Inches, Cattle should be removed when plants are 9 to a
height of four W#ches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be axe rwt to let small grain reach maturity. especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). S�adlng may result It small grain gets too high and this will definately Interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields aiW less nitrogen

the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain eadW. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending an the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The Ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, Is late September or early October. Drilling is
recornmerKled over broadcasting- Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for beat results

Dear David McLean Jr.:
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Manag
,ement Plans and the method by which the irricrated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreag
,e within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by John Hasty on 5/5/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility
that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the
Z�
following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
L,
Category 1:
F-1 The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing John Hasty the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to John Hasty, at 225 Green Street, Suite
714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact John Hasty at [phone]. If within 90 days you are unable
to provide John Hasty with the information you are automatically required to complete
a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days
of receipt of this letter.

Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next
180 days. if the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWO will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWO and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Off ice. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or pen-nitting
requirement.

Dear Mr. Branch:
On Tuesday, January 2, 1996, 1 met with you to discuss your concerns with a proposed
Confined Animal Operation to be located in Robeson county. You indicated that the proposed
facility would be a contract operation with Brown's of Carolina with Mr. David McLean.
This office does not have a record of a farm in the name of David McLean in Robeson
County. Since it is a proposed new facility your best source would be to contact the Robeson
County Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The District Conservationist would
be Mr. Ed Holland. He can be reached by telephone at [phone] or by writing to him
at this following office address: 440 Caton Road, Lumberton, NC 28358.
Our Central office staff, Facility Compliance Section, was contacted by me on the same
date to determine if this facility had submitted the official Certification Form signed by the
responsible technical specialist. I have no record of Mr. David McLean submitting a
Certification approval form. Thus, the Division of Environmental Management has no record
of this farm's existence.

This nutrient management plan has been specifically developed for this swine operation.
The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of applicdation for
this 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 ammount 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 this nutrient management plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environment-

ally 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 five tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on to land when the surface is frozen. Either of these
conditions may result in runoff to 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 -
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 depending upon the
waste analysis report for your waste management facility.
Additional Comments:
Acreage excludes 25 foot field borders.

I understand that I must own or have access to equipment, primarily irrigation equipment,
to land apply the animal waste described in this nutrient management plan. This
equipment must be available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge
occurs from the lagoon in a 25-year I -day storm event. I also certify that the waste -

NRCS WASTE UTILIZATION
PLAN SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not rewh surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, mailinade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land appfication. Any discharge of was-te which reaches surface water is
prohibitecL
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized 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, helshe shall provide a copy of a notarized 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 secum an update of die Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operaiton, increase in the
number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste sha be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moistun, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be Used ill lieu of realistic Yield tables at the
discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per y ear. Waste may be applied to land that
is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acrea per year provi�ling grass filter strips are installed where
runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 3 93 -Filter Strips)
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 soll incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occurc during a seas -on prone to flooding. (See "Wheather 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 occure off -site
or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from tlleNitC dUl-ingapplication. No ponding should
occur in order to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall evcms, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a nuiliner that the crop is not covered with waste
to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt daniage from aninial waste should also be considered-
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops onsoils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimlini and a suitable winter cover crop
planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied jil(ilv tllill 30 days prior to planting of a crop or
forages breaking dormancy.
IL Any new swine facility sited an 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 i compOlICE of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet
from any residential property boundary and from any perennial strealli or river other than an inigation ditch or
canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited oil or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance may be redLICCLI 1101- Watel-S that are not perennial provided
adequate vegetative filter strips are present (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).

12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells.
13. Aninial waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other thati those owned by landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other propery and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal w&qe shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over -
spraying, Animal waste may be applied to prior convcrted cropland provided it has been approved as a land
applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste a plied oil grassed watenvays shall be at agronomic rates
P
and m a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, loi lets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
ani:mal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established oil all distul-bed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees,
sluubs. and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should hk� inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is terrninated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a *closure
plan* which wiH eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and ert-IS1011.
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 oil site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetalbles and other crops for direct human consumption.
However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human comuniplitin it slimild oniv he applied preplant with no
further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanenct markers shall be installed to mark the top and buttom elevations of the temporary storage
(pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Purriping slial I be nianaged to maintain the h quid level between
the markers. A marker will be required to mark the ma;ximuni swrage voltlnw for waste -storage ponds.
22, Soil tests shall be made every year, and a liquid waste analysis shall be taken xviihin 60 days of application
consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry litter shall be tested prior ioapplication. Soll and waste analysis

*Note: Engineering approval is for minimum design standards '
and is based on pre -construction site and soils investigations.
Technical specialist shall verify soils during construction, coA)5V4.7-
with Engineer on any required modifications, and perform final
as -built certification. Technical spec'ia-list is . responsible
for excavation calculations and nutrient management plan.
Technical specialist to verify with owner/operator (1) all
applicable setback distances, and (2) excavation of known
tile drains in construction area before sitework begins.

System Calibration
In -formation presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
condizions with relatively new equipi-nenz. Discharge rates and application rates
chance over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular,
p L, rn, - o vvear rends to reduce dperating pressure and flow. With conTinued use,
nozzi-, wear results in an inc,
t- ease in the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharce rate while decreasing the wettLed diameter.
You should be aware that opera -Ling the systern di-Hierently t1han assumed in the
desicn will alter the application rate, diarnezer of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessi�le pressure
results in s mailer droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intalkes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operazing pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you s.hould calibre-,.-- your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure prooer application r-=-Les and uniform, ity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring f1flow at
several locations in the application area. Any num ber 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 applica-dion amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pens, plastic bucke-Ls,
jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-sec-lon 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
throug.-houz the applica-zion area ar several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinkiers should be located a!ong a 'Lrransect perpendicular to the cf;recvion
ol' Pull. Se-L out collection conzainers 25 feet apart, along the rransect on both
sides of the gun car-L. You should compute the average applica-Lion rate for all
nonuniformity of the applicaTion. On a windless day, variation bezween conzainers
of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should conzacz your irrication
dealer or technical specialis: for assistance.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharg as er from the structure. Types
g ,e of w tewat
of failures include lealm-e through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
.7 1.7
dam. Assu ming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensUrinc, structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon st—ucture—an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dan, without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lacoon desian before placing any pipes in dams.)
g
Lacoon liquid levels—hi-h levels are a safety risk.
Failure to hispect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity --protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during -sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below gfoundwater
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is alIQ,;�ed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gulEes to form in the dam. Once this damage st=-ts, it can quickly cause a large disch2---
of wastewater and possible dam failure.

SHEET I 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 water 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 49.7 as marked by permanent marker. Stop Pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 47.7 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 157601 cubic feet or
1178853 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.

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 10 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 1.6 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 borrow 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-
lished 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.

along with the mortality plan (components of the Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan) needed to be completed. Mr. Jimmy Vinson with Brown's of Carolina informed
me that the farm was certified on February 28, 1996. This means that the farm was
certified prior to the effective date of January 1997 in which the items listed above were
not required to be a part of the CAWMP. However, the other item concerning record
keeping needs to be addressed. Please consult with a technical specialist for assistance
in regards to calculating the number of acres in each pull for each one of the spray fields
so that accurate IRR-1 and IRR-2 forms can be maintained.
This letter is being issued to rescind the Notice of Deficiency issued to this facility on

Re: David McLean Farm
Reg. No. 78-84
Notice of Deficiency
, After our conversation yesterday during our inspections, when I got back to the
office, I looked through Mr. McLean's files. The fim was certified on Feb 28, 1996.
This was before the items that you requested in your letter were made mandatory. For
this reason, I feel it is unfair to Mr. McLean for this to be a part of his file records in the
central office. However, I agree that this can be added to his Waste Management Plan
and would eventually have to be when it goes to permitting. I will work with him to get
this done, but I feel that a Notice was not needed in this case and should be taken out of
his files.
Thanks for your consideration in this case. If I can be further assistance in getting
this taken care of, please let me know.
Sincerely,
cc: David McLean
