' Concerns are based upon DWQ records consisting of deficiencies noted in state inspection reports, NOVs, penalty assessments and/or reports submitted to DWQ by the farm. Carefully
review your records to identify the specific concern or concerns and then describe the concern under the appropriate heading together with a reference to the specific record and the date of
the record (i.e., inspection report dated or NOV dated ___). With the exception of "discharges," which cover calendar year 2000, concerns are based on DWQ records for the
calendar years beginning January 1, 1996, and ending December 31, 2000.
` Describe in as much detail as possible how the concern has been addressed, or, if it has not been addressed, the measures the farm intends to undertake to address the concern and a
schedule for completing the measures.
3 If subsurface drains are present, state whether you know that the drain(s) is discharging groundwater uncontaminated by hog waste, and if so, the basis for that conclusion.

Dear Murphy Farms:
NCDENR
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF
ENV{RONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
February 4, 2002
Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Harrells Farm
Facility Number 82-28
Sampson County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Trent Allen on 2/11/99 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
following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Trent Allen the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Trent Allen, 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 Trent Allen at [phone]. If within 90 days you are unable
to provide Trent Allen 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.

Notification for Wettable Afire Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Category 2:
Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ 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. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at [phone] ext. 571.

COMMENTS: The lagoon has been desioned as an irregular shape.
Actual contour areas taken from the lagoon design are used to calculate
the surface area and storage volume characteristics of the lagoon.
This approach insures that rainfall capture on the lagoon is full
accounted for and that storage volumes calculated represent actual
conditions regardless of the shape.

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 of temporary storage for:
(1) manure production of animals, (2) excess fresh water storage, (3) rainfall in
excess of evaporation, (4) storage for the 25 year / 24 hour storm for the location,
(5) and, if applicable, an additional "heavy rain" storage volume for chronic rainfall
events. Allocation for any additional fresh water usage is also included in the
temporary storage. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals
will be fairly constant throughout the 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 staff gauge must be installed in the lagoon that indicates the start pumping and stop
pumping levels. The start pumping level is the maxium liquid level under normal operating
conditions. The stop pumping level is the minimum liquid level under normal
operation to maintain required treatment volume and depth. Pumping can be started
and stopped anywhere 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. However, it is recommended that the lagoon be kept
pumped down as much as possible.
Land application of wastewater is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal.
Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling guns. Care
should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be,carried out:
1. it is required that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one—half the treatent volume
or as otherwise specified on the lagoon design drawings before wastes are introduced.
The purpose is to prevent excessive odors during start --up. Precharging 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. The plan recommends
sampling and testing of waste before land application.

3. Begin temporary storage pump—out of the lagoon when the fluid level reaches the
elevation 105.70 as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump—out when the fluid level
reaches elevation 103.70. This temporary storage, less 25 year / 24 hour storm,
contains 133494 cubic feet or 998531 gallons.
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the
recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches 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 or damaged areas 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 such that waste will not reach other property and public
rights—of—way.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters
of the United States. Waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by either discharge or by over—spraying. The Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management,
has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

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 earthfll 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 material may 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 equivalent method. Compaction will
be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that
settlement is not readily detectable. 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 with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre --feet or more fall
under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law and require permitting by the NC Dept. of
Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section. 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 CLAY LINER THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 FT.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN INDICATED ON THE
DRAWINGS OR WHEN MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION THAT
WILL NOT PROVIDE THE PERMEABILITY LIMITS AS STATED LATER IN THIS SE-T[ON.
SUCH MATERIAL IS CONSIDERED UNSUITABLE WITH RESPECT TO LINING. A TYPICAL
CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DRAWINGS WHEN LINERS
ARE REQUIRED.

When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be overexcavated 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 material approved by the
engineer or his representative.
REFER TO THE DRAWINGS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS.
Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum moisture
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 moisture content during placement. The maximum moisture
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 95 percent of the Standard Proctor Maximum Dry Density
(ASTM D698) 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 permeability 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 in an established pattern helps
assure uniformity in the entire placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a
tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferred type of compaction equipment.
In accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716
(revised September 1993) the maximum allowable specific discharge of the liner is
1.0 x 10-5 cm/sec. This specific discharge is dependant on the permeability of the
liner material, the liner thickness, and the hydrostatic pressure on the liner. With the
minimum required liner thickness stated earlier and the maximum liquid depth in the
lagoon, the maximum permeability of the compacted liner is 1.25 x 10-6 cm/sec. Upon
completion of the liner, undisturbed samples will be taken and tested for actual
permeability. Any permeability tests indicating a higher permeability than stated above
will be considered as failing. Failing tests will require recompaction of the finer material
and retesting.
For lagoons being built in soils which do not require clay lining the same permeability
requirements apply as for clay liners and testing of the in—situ material will be conducted.
During the excavation process, soils at the excavated surface are loosened as adjacent
material is being removed. As a result, the permeability of these surface soils is increased.
To insure proper compaction and minimum soil permeability, when lagoon excavation is
complete the inner side slopes and bottom shall be rolled thoroughly prior to testiag,.

The soil liner shall be protected from scour produced by the discharge from waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator: concrete flumes,
concrete blocks laid tightly together, or using flexible pipe outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic finers and bentonite sealant. When these are
specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction
Specification or are shown on the drawings.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when called for in the
notes on the drawings or as shown on a typical cross section on the drawings. The final
dimensions of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials during construction.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the
planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the
seeding specifications. Topsoil, if available on site should be placed on areas of the dike
and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if 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:
An observation trench shall be dug along the perimeter of the lagoon 25 feet outside the
proposed embankment toe to verify that no subsurface drain tile lines are present in the
lagoon area. The trench shall be dug to a minimum depth of five feet and shall have a width
adequate to accommodate equipment used for backfill and compaction. Trench side
slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. Trench backfill shall be compacted as stated in the
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT section of the specification.
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 25 feet beyond
the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with
material approved by the engineer or his representative. Tile drains that are removed
shall be either capped off or rerouted around the lagoon, as directed by the engineer or
his representative.
SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS:
All operations shall be carried out in a safe, skillful, and workmanlike manner. All safety and
health regulations shall be observed and appropriate personal safety and health measures
used at all times during construction.

Emergency Action Plan
CHECKED BY: JNT
DATE: 11/26/96
SHEET 1 OF 2
Using this outline as guidance, you should develop a specific emergency action plan for your
waste handling system.. This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your
operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes
reach surface water or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should
make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be available to all
employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any time. Your
plan should follow this format:
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to problems are listed below:
A. Lagoon overflow—possible solutions are:
add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam—any permanent
alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified professional engineer
or qualified technical specialist
pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate
stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waters) --hold waste in house if possible
call a pumping contractor
make sure no surface water is entering lagoon
NOTE: The above listed activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded
the temporary storage level.
B. Runoff from waste application field—actions include:
immediately stop waste application
create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field
incorporate waste to reduce further runoff
C. Leakage from the waste distribution system:
pipes and sprinklers—actions include:
— stop recycle (flushing system) pump
— stop irrigation pump
— close valves to eliminate further discharge
— separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
flush system, houses, solids separators—actions include:
— stop recycle (flushing system) pump
— stop irrigation pump
— make sure no siphon effect has been created
— separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
D. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed to
flowing leaks—possible action*:
dig a small well 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
fill holes and compact with a clayey soil 17
other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil

(Design Capacity)
The waste -from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface 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. 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 dif[erent infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.. Normally
waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With
special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, 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 DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on
proper sampling techniques; preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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 the assessment of civil penalties of S 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
owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste.
If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall
provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner
who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste
application for the life expectancy of the production facility. 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 Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS

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 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.
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
on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance
may be reduced for waters 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 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
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly -into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application
causes no runoff or drift from the site.

shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a maximum
operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25 -year, 24-hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and 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.
Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage, or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsi. for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. 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.

(Design Capacity)
The waste'from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface 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. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
gown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.. Normally
waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With
special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, 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 DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on
proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 the 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
owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste.
If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall
provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner
who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste
application for the life expectancy of the production facility. 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.
d. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North
Carolina" in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)

(continued)
T. 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 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.
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
on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance
may be reduced for waters 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 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
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly -into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application
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. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a maximum
operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25 -year, 24-hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and 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.
Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage, or discharge.
19. 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.
20. 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.

System Calibration
'JUN 1 51998
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and app _
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. I� VED
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continue use,
nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increy ! U Tei 19%
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
FAYETTEVILLE
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumeblE�ahe1FFICE
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 o� 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 car. 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.

OPERATION & ANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon licuid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
m
important to anage 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 bexmudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means
.that at the firs signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according- to
a Tann waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liouid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall tete lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
mainrain 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 capacity before starting to
=gate does not Ieave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. _
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25 -year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Mia mmnance of a vegetative cover for the da. .
.rescue or common bermudagrrss are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegeation should be fez iized each year, if -needed, to
.,aintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fe-tilize: 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 I0-10-10, or
ecuivalent.
Prush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. 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.
I. separation of joints
2. tracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

Lagoon surface ---look for:
1. undesirable vegemtive growth
2. floating or Iodged debris
Embankment—look for:
1. settlement, cackng, or "jug" holes
2 side slope stability—slumps, or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. Tn...sr waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could Iead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has
any of thess features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction -of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporaryfix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate tecani:al exper`.
Tr-ansfer Pumps --sir: k for proper operation of:
i . recycling punnps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and ove.2ll pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a 1`ge amount of vibration, =, y indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform yourpumping
system mauttenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be :wired. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) 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 pines and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrwred promptly. It is advisable to inspect your sys=z
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If t=hnica.l assistance is needed to
detr==ine proper solutions, consult with appropriate eac.pe.Ts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and thea
recons the level again 4 to 6 hours aft:.- the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your la?oon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you most 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 taay
have an inflow problem from a surf= warer diversion or th= may beseep age into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
lagoon Operation
1. Immediately after construction establish a conrrplete sod cover on bare soli
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fall new lagoon design tre-atment volume at Ieast half full of water before
waste loading begins, to dn; care not to erode lining or. bank slopes.
3. DminDi= into the lagoon should have a fle--4ble pioe extender on the
end of the pipe to disc a_,e near the bottom of the lagoon during inidai
niliztg or another mmw of slowing the incomm,, water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, beg;izt loading new Koons in the spring to maxime
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
:. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a hey
worsting swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 pe:twat of the fuli.lagoon
houid volume. This se:ding should occour a r least two weeds prior to the
addition of wast --ware:.
6. 'Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid -pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agzicuitztral lime at the rate of Ipound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon Equid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A darn color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activiry. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, esaecailly during the watch
se`son.
The more freouaitly and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the bene*the
lagoon will fiinczxon. Flush systems thaz wash waste into the Izgoon several times daily arc
tr=a
optimum for -nt. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged eac:'t day, also work well.

Practice water const rvadon---minimize building water usage and
spillage from Icaidng-waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper mmntenanc: and water cons: rvanon.
Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the iagocn
Ma=geme=
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the pezanent storage level and
the full temporary korage level.
Place visible marL-zs or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid. lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient rmuireraents 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 winmr.
The lagoon liquid leve: should never be closer',han I toot to the lower
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the !.Zoon liquid level lower tha: the permanent stotz"
level unless you = ; e:noving sludge.
Locate float pump =mkes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surf' c= and as far aw-av from the drainoiDe infers as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long -s -==ed forage orvegeativn,
molded feed, plastic svringes, or other foreign mare`^jais into the-la;ooII.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or -
wherever they are a=ided.
Maintain strict vege cion, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edg=
Do not allow a= or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankTn=t
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent rtorage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a.
pollutant discha ae.
Sludge.Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:

proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids s.-oamdon of fiushn-d waste,
;raviry settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed aanuaUy rather than stored Ion- term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutriezits.
Removal =hza ques:
Farre a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper agitator impeller
pump through 12 -bore sprinkler =gation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper par of lagoon by irigadon onto nearby cropland or
forageiand; mix _arrairLm sludge; pump into licuid sludge appac=r' haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the unae::,ars of lagoon by i�iigation onto nearby cropland or
foiageland; dZIM.ge sludge from lagoon with de or sludge barzt; O=M
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so tha: liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spread-
onto cropland or forageiand; and soil incorporatz.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge materiall ar.L yzed for waste P
constitu=ts just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain di fer._t
nutrient and meal values from the liquid. The application of the siudge to fields vzU'be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste anplicazLons to that field and crop
zequia=ent_ Wase application rags will be discussed in derail in Chapte`- 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the I ;per to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator wits ensure that the Lagoon liner remains
intacL If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately and not rsume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the uner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphoras and.heavy metal content
than liauid. 3e`ause of this it should probably be applied to land with low phomhorus
and metal levels. as indicated by a soil test, and incoiporated to reduce the chance of
erosion_ Note Lnat if the sludge is aapiied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores., it
should -be applied only at races equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with othe^
wastes, always have. your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutriwir value.
The applicadon of sludge will increase the amount of odor at t.'ie waste application sit~.
Exna preaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors.

Possffile Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures-resilt in the unplanned discharge of v astewmer from the structure_ Types
Of fatZures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
darn. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the rmsponsibility for
cnstttng suz== safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include.
Modification of the lagoon structure --an example is the placement of apipe
in the dam without proper design and constr=on. (Consuitan expmrin
lagoon design before placing any pipes in darns.)
Lagoon liquid levels --high leveLs.are a safety tisk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity—protect from inlerpipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater
table.
NOTA 11 lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving waterwill soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly. cause a large discharge
of wastrwa= and possible dam failure.

System Calibration
*fon-Discharge Permitting
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 after 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 feast 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 causes 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.

OPERATION S MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round prioriry. It is especially
important to rn=age levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maxim= 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 pian 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 summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figur-_' -1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
mainmin the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilisation plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not Ieave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. _
Overflow from the Iagoon for any reason except a 25 -year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine m-ammnance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
rescue or common be,-mudavarass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegemtion should be fertilized each year, u -needed, to
maintain a vigorous sand. The amount of fe - lize: applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not p-,actical 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
ecuivalent.
Brun and trees on the embankment must be controlled. 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 eater
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance inspwdons of the entire Iagoon 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.
L . separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
Y• overall condition of pipes

Lagoon surface—look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or Iodged debris
Embankment --look for:
I.settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2 side slope stability—slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result 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 potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam: If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction -of waste lagoons. You may nervi to provide a tempo fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical e-pem Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate t=hnical expert.
Transfer Pumps—ch--k for grope: operation of:
L recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump cpe'adon. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the puma is in need or repair or
replacement
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you.
are not comietely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your -pumping
system mairttenance 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 full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) 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.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

identified problems should be correct: d promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If tecchniral assistance is needed to
determine proDer solations, consult with appropriate expe.-'s.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and thea
record the level again 4 to 6 hours afte.: the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This wi11
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a c t3 n rainfall amount
(you 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 infow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
1. Immediately after cons-truction establish a complete sod cove: on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erasion.
2. Fill new Iagoon design tr-,.atment volume at Int half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or. bank slopes.
a. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a fi.e;uoie pine extender on the
end of the pipe to disc: a..ge near the bottom of tine lagoon durin; iaitia.l
:- ing or another means of slowing the incor,=c water to avoid erosion of
the Uni.nc.
4: When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to exam=
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that anew lagoon be seeded with sludge from a hey
wor-ng swine laPoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full -lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should oc cour-aI: I== two werla pziorto the
adalaon of wastewater.
G. ivtaintain a periodic chi on the lagoon liquid oF. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lune at the rate of 1 pound pea 1000 cubic fees or
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A darn color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical speria.list is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the beML -the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treas,-ent. Pit =harge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged ear; -i day, also work well.

Practice water conserva.don—minimize building water usage and
spillage from lea16ng,waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenan= and water con=rvamon.
- Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. 'Phis
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Maintain lagoon liquid level betwe`n the pernaanent storage Ievel and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible mark.-zs or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid. lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient reauireme.ns and soil moisture so that Temporary storage
will be maximiz: d for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summerlearly fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the win=.
The lz;oon liquid level should never be close. ,an I foot to the lower
point of the dam o: embankment.
Do not pump the izoon :icuid level lower thz the permanent s:o:zgc
level unless you are removing sludge.
T ovate float pump takes approximately IS inches underneath the lirnrid
su-zce and as L: sv ay from the drainpipe inie;s as possible. -
?revent additions of oedding materials, Iong-s-6e.-=ed forage orvegemEart,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or othe-r foreign materials into the -lagoon.
.Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or--
wherever they are ins-u.11ed.
Maintain strict vegemtion, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edgm
Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or emnanitm=t
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capa�ty is
foil or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent rorap volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure pian to eliminate the possibility of a.
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Remov2l:
Ratti of lagoon sludge buildup rut be reduc_�d by:

proper lagoon siring,
mechanical solids s=a ation of flushed wast.^_,
gravity s:ttling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wase and spillage.
Iagooa sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to =Ocrly use the nutri- ts.
Removal r--;hnicues:
Eire a custom applicator.
b x the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper-agirator impeller
pump through large-bore spriLL- er irrigation sysmm onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the uper pa_r of lagoon by i:-. gation onto nearby cropland or
fo�elana; nax re.�.ai�ning sludge; pump into liquid sludge ca -r, haul
and spread onto cropiand or forageand; and sol: iancomorate.
Dewate. the upper pat of lagoon by L=L'gaton onto nearby cion_ land or
forageiand; ar'. =tee siudge from la-oon with d: C'ia or sludce bamt; O=M
an zea beside iagoon to r5ceive the sludge so the liquids can a.2in back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewatMr, haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forage—'and; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constitueats jus as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain diffe;-.t
nutrient and me:a! values from the Hquid. The aptslic don of Lhe sludge to fields willbe
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste appiica:ions to that held and c=
requ=eazent Waste application rates will be discussed in C' --=R in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the ljner to prevent damage. Clow
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon linea re:aam
intact_ If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately and not r-„ surae until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. li 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 contest
than liquid. 3. -mouse of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and mewl levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chane: of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should.be aupiied only at races equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge wiil increase the amount of odor at the waste application sit--
Extra
iteExtra pre�udon should be used to obse: ve the wind dire.; tion and other condidons which
could incr...se the concern of neighbors.

Posn'ble Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failu=result in the unplanned discharge of wastcwarer from the structure. Types
of fatiures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
darn. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensr=g strucm a safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structulm--an example is the piac"nent of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and constracnon. (Consultan expert is
lagoon deign before ping any Pipes in da-)
Lagoon liquid levels—high levels.am a safety risk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam_
EX=S surfacs water flowing into the lagoon_
Liner integrity --protest from inlet -pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below �o dwarer
table.
N0712: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving waterwill soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly. cause a large discharge
of wz=wa= and possible dam f-.iiure.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface VVaters
or leave you property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every
effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible
location for all' employees at the ,'acility. The following are some action items you should
take.
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may ore may not: be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed belwo.
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
C. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no sun .ace water is entering lagoon.
8. Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eiiminate the reason(s) that cause the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C. Leakaoe from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include: .
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eiiminate further discharge.
d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D. Leakace from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure siphon occurs.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
E. Leakage from base or sidewali of lagoon: Often this is seepage as opposed
to flowing leaks -possible action:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch from the embankmenrto catch all
seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b. !f holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of -the side walls -and. lagoon -
bottom as soon as possible.

2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste- reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
C. Any damage notes, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surace waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours call your DWQ regional office; Phone - -. After
hours, emergency number: 919-733-3942. Your phone call should include: your
name, facility number, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2
above, the exact location of the facility, the location or direction of movement of
the spill, weather and wind conditions. The corrective measures that -have been
under taken, and the seriousness of the sitution.

0.0 INTRODUCTION
The permeable cover system (PCS) is an innovative manure water treatment system that will
reduce nutrient and oxygen demand in addition to what the existing lagoon treatment system
currently achieves. The system is proposed as a modification to the existing waste treatment and
utilization system, permitted for Harrells Farm as NCDENR Permit No. AWG 100000 and
Certificate of Coverage No. AWS820028, included in Attachment A. The permit modification
request is for the waste treatment of 2,448 -head (two barns) of the 6,120 -head (five barns) feeder
to finish operation. The farm, located in Sampson County, is owned and operated by Murphy
Farms, LLC.
A schematic of the PCS system is shown in Figure 1-1. Aerated water, rich in nitrates, is used to
flush manure from two barns to a lift station as shown in the schematic. The flushed manure
slurry is pumped from an existing lift station to an existing 4,278,620 -gallon primary treatment
lagoon at a daily flow rate of 18,850 gpd. This lagoon is to be covered with a floating permeable
cover that acts as a biofilter and a physical barrier to lagoon emissions. Aerobic microbes will
attach and propagate into a biological scrubbing matrix that will oxidize and neutralize ammonia,
volatile organic compounds and other odorous anaerobic by-products from the lagoon. The
covered primary treatment lagoon will reduce system organic (VS) loading of 1,5861bVS/day by
about 60%. The liquid from the covered lagoon is pumped at 18,850 gpd to a 700,000 -gallon
aerobic digester for further reduction in oxygen demand and subsequent nitrification.
EST Permit Application
ISSUES PROJECT: PCS technologies — Harrells Farm Page I of 8

A fine -bubble diffuser system will be used to deliver the dissolved oxygen (DO) needed to meet
the daily oxygen demand of the aerobic digester. A l0 -HP blower, rated at 104 cfm will be used
to deliver the air and maintain about 1-2 mg/L of DO in the aerobic digester at all times. The
hydraulic retention of the wastewater in the aerobic digester is roughly 36 days. This will provide
about 86% reduction in BODS and about 84% reduction in ammonia through nitrification.
A portion, 13,220 gpd, of the nitrified water will be returned to the barns for flushing. The
nitrate -rich flush water will combine with raw manure to create a carbon -rich environment for
denitrification. As such, more than 90% of the nitrified ammonia will be denitrified to nitrogen
gas.
In addition to the aerated effluent stream used to flush the barns, about 5,630 gpd of the aerated
water will be pumped to the storage/polishing (PS) basin shown in Figure 1-1. This basin will
therefore be anoxic with significantly low ammonia and oxygen demand. Nutrient water will be
irrigated from this basin based on the Waste Utilization Plan enclosed as Attachment B.
The entire system will be controlled automatically using a WinPLC-based automation. A Think -
and -Do TM software will be used to run the control interface consisting of digital and analog
inputs and outputs. This will allow efficient feeding and treatment for every hour of the day.
1.0 OBJECTIVES
The specific objectives of the RENEW system are to:

3.0 FLUSHING SYSTEM
Manure will be flushed from the two, partially slatted buildings using 580 -gallon tanks via
existing 12 -inch, Schedule 40 PVC to a 4,000 -gallon lift station (Figure 1-1). The lift station has
two 5 -hp, submersible pumps installed in parallel configuration, with solids handling controlled
by liquid level floats and control panels. Wastewater from the lift station is pumped through a 6 -
inch Schedule 40 PVC to a 4,278,620 -gallon primary treatment lagoon (Figure 1-1). No
modifications to the lift stations or parallel 5 -hp pumps will be necessary. An existing screen in
each of the lift stations will continue to be used to prevent foreign objects from passing on to the

solids concentration system. Please see Sheet 1 of 4 of the engineering drawings in Attachment C
for additional details. Table 2-1 lists the flow characteristics of the flushwater.
4.0 COVERED PRIMARY TREATMENT LAGOON AND WET WELL
The raw flushed manure wastewater will be digested anaerobically in the covered lagoon. The
organic loading rate of the lagoon is 4.8 lbVS/1000-ft2/day. About 60% of the loaded VS will be
destroyed, resulting into the effluent characteristics shown in Table 5-1. The lagoon effluent is
fed into the aerobic digester for further reduction of oxygen demand for both carbonaceous and
nitrogenous BOD.
Unlike traditional lagoons, there will be a significant modification to the Harrells lagoon in that it
will be covered with a permeable cover (see Attachment D for specifications and installation
details). The woven, polypropylene material will form an aerobic matrix that will facilitate the
growth of aerobic bacteria. The biological colonies established will facilitate biofiltration of
VOCs, ammonia and other by-products of anaerobic digestion. It will also form a physical
barrier that will minimize mass transfer between the lagoon and the ambient air. The goal is to
develop and demonstrate the effect of a permeable cover on the emission of odor and volatile
compounds.
In addition to the permeable cover, a 10 -inch pipe will be installed to gravity feed effluent from
the primary lagoon to a 5 -foot diameter wet well located on the primary lagoon berm. The wet
well, detailed in Attachment E, will accommodate the following pumps:
• PWW I —pumps effluent from the wet well to the aerobic digester
• PWW2 — pumps effluent from the wet well to the polishing/storage basin
Pump calculations and pump specifications for PWW 1 and PWW2 are included in Attachment
E. A pipe layout (engineering sheet 2 of 4) and hydraulic profile (engineering sheet 3 of 4) of
the system are included in Attachment C. Both pumps will be controlled using a WinPLC-based
automation.
5.0 AEROBIC DIGESTER
Effluent from the primary lagoon is pumped to the aerobic digester at a feeding rate of 18,850
gpd to reduce the biological oxygen demand through aerobic digestion and ammonia through
nitrification. The BODS and ammonia concentrations in the aerobic digester influent will be
about 1,437 mg/L and 429 mg/L respectively (Table 5-1). This will result in an oxygen demand
of approximately 582 lb/d. The oxygen demand will be supplied by a blower and fine -bubble
diffuser system detailed further in this section.
The aerobic digester influent TS, BODS, and NH3-N concentrations will be about 6, 727, 1437,
and 429 mg/L, respectively. The aerobic digester will reduce the oxygen demand in the effluent
by about 86%, resulting in the digester effluent characteristics shown in Table 5-1.
EST Permit Application
ISSUES PROJECT: PCS technologies — Harrells Farm Page 5 of 8

Reduction of the oxygen demand will be accomplished based on the following biochemical
process (Metcalf and Eddie, 1991):
Bacteria
COHNS + 02 + nutrients 10 CO2 + NH3 + C5H7NO2 + other end products
new bacteria cell
Assuming a completely mixed reactor, the computed reactor volume based on oxygen demand
would be 67,763 gallons, as shown in Table 5-1. This volume is computed using equation 5-1 as
follows (Metcalf and Eddie, 1991):
V = SRT. Q. Y. (BOD,n — BODOUI )
MLSS. (1 + kd. SRT) 5-1
where SRT (solids retention time) = 10 days; Q = daily flow rate = 18,850 gpd; Y = yield
coefficient = 0.5 mg cell/mg BODS; BOD;, = influent BODS = CBOD + NBOD (Table 5-1);
BODQut = effluent BODS as in Table 5-1; MLSS = mixed liquor suspended solids = 2500 mg/L;
kd = kinetic constant = 0.006 1/day; and V = volume of aerobic digester.
If the aerobic digester volume were to be computed based on a HRT of 30 days and a flow rate
of 18,850 gpd, the required volume would be 565,488 gallons. The actual volume of the digester
proposed for the Harrells Farm, is sized to provide 696,541 gallons of aerobic digestion. Using
internal settling, instead of operating the reactor in a completely mixed mode will make it
possible to achieve a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the suspended solids in excess of 30
days.
A dissolved oxygen demand to maintain 1-2 mg/L at all times in the aerobic digester will be
supplied by a fine -bubble diffuser system. The horsepower required for the blower (Table 5-1)
was computed using equation 5-2 (Metcalf and Eddie, 1991).
0,283
HP = wRT [(P2 —1 5-2
550ne P,
Where w = mass flow rate (lb/s); R = gas constant, n = 0.283 (air); e = blower efficiency, Pi =
blower inlet pressure; P2 = blower outlet pressure; and HP = horse power = 6.4 HP (computed as
shown in Table 5-1).
The influent and effluent flow inventory is listed in Table 5-1. Out of the total influent flow rate
of 18,850 gpd, 13,219 gpd will be used for flushing two bams, while 5,630 gpd will be pumped
to the polishing/storage basin for denitrification and further tertiary treatment. The flowrates
from the aerobic digester will be controlled by two submersible pump as follows:
• PAED1 —pumps aerated wastewater from the aerobic digester to the PS basin
• Recycle — pumps aerated wastewater from the aerobic digester to two barn's flush tanks
Pump calculations and pump specifications for PAED1 and Recycle are included in Attachment
E. A pipe layout (engineering sheet 1 of 4) and hydraulic profile (engineering sheet 3 of 4) of
the systems are included in Attachment C.
EST Permit Application
ISSUES PROJECT. PCS technologies — Harrells Farm Page 6 of 8

In the event either of the PAED 1 or Recycle pumps are turned off due to maintenance or
operational requirements, a cross-over pipe will gravity feed excess wastewater to the PS basin.
The elevation of the cross-over pipe invert is such that excess precipitation in the aerobic
digester will discharge into the PS basin. Excess precipitation will discharge into the PS basin
until its storage volume is full and then both the digester and basin liquid level will rise together
to fill the volume designated for excess precipitation.

6.0 Polishing/Storage Basin
As mentioned above, 5,630 gpd of oxygenated water will be fed from the aerobic digester into
the polishing/storage basin. The PS basin will provide tertiary treatment including denitrification.
It will also provide storage and equalization for irrigation. The nutrient and BOD contents of the
PS basin, influent and effluent are listed in Table 6-1.

6.3 Nutrient Utilization
The additional treatment provided by the aerobic digester and PS basin will reduce BOD and
nitrogen by about 75% respectively. This will reduce nutrients available for irrigation and
agronomic plant uptake. The nutrient application design and plan, included in Attachment B,
only assumes a 25% reduction of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) from the two barns, therefore,
the plan is conservative for the proposed system.

NORTH CAROLINA
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COM USSION
DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
SWINE WASTE OPERATION GENERAL PERMIT
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003. Holders of
Certificates of Coverage (COC) under this permit shall comply with the following specified conditions
and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. The animal waste collection, treatment, storage and application system permitted under
this permit shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -discharge system to
prevent the discharge of pollutants to surface waters, wetlands, or ditches. Application of
waste at agronomic rates to terraces and grassed waterways is acceptable in accordance
with Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS) Standards. Facilities which are in
compliance with their CAWMP and this permit, which unintentionally discharge as a
result of a storm event greater than the 25 -year, 24-hour storm, will not be considered to
be in violation of this permit. '
2. The CAWMP is hereby incorporated by reference into this general permit. New or
expanding farms are required to be certified prior to the stocking of animals. The
CAWNIP must be consistent with all applicable statutes, rules and standards in effect at
the time of siting, design and certification of the facility. Any violation of the CAWNIP
shall be considered a violation of this generaLpennit and subject to enforcement actions.
A violation of the General Permit may result in the Permittee having to take immediate or
long term corrective action(s) as required by the Division of Water Quality. These
actions may include modifying the CAWMP, ceasing land application of waste, or
removing animals from the farm.
3. The facility may not be expanded above the capacity shown in the COC until a new COC
reflecting the expansion has been issued.
4. A copy of this General Permit, COC, certification forms, lessee and landovt►ner
agreements, and'the CAWMP shall. be readily available at the farm (stored at places such
as the farm residence, office, outbuildings, etc.) where animal waste management
activities are being conducted for the life of this permit. These documents shall be kept
in good condition and records shall be maintained in an orderly fashion.
5. For all new and expanding. operations, no collection or storage facilities may be
constructed in a 100 -year flood plain.

9. Unless accounted for in temporary storage volume, all uncontaminated runoff from the
surrounding property and buildings shall be diverted away from the animal waste lagoons
and storage ponds to prevent any unnecessary addition to the liquid volume in the
structures.
10. A protective vegetative cover shall be established and maintained on all lagoon/storage
pond embankments (outside toe of embankment to maximum pumping elevation), berms,
pipe runs, and surface water diversions. Trees, shrubs, and other woody vegetation shall
not be allowed to grow on the lagoon/waste storage pond embankments. All trees shall
be removed in accordance with good engineering practices. Lagoon/waste storage pond
areas shall be accessible, and vegetation shall be kept mowed.
11. At the time of sludge removal from a lagoon, the sludge must be managed in accordance
with a CAWMP. When removal of sludge from the lagoon is necessary, provisions must
be taken to prevent damage to lagoon dikes and liners.
12. Lagoons/storage ponds shall be kept free of foreign debris including, but not limited to,
tires, bottles, light bulbs, gloves, syringes or any other solid waste.
13. The facility must have one of the following items at all times (a) adequate animal waste
application and handling equipment, (b) a lease, or other written agreement, for the use of
the necessary equipment, (c) a contract with a third party applicator capable of providing
adequate waste application, or (d) a contract for the purchase of the equipment.
Equipment shall be capable -of meeting permit condition Il (4).
M. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
1. An inspection of the waste collection, treatment, and storage structures and runoff control
measures shall be conducted at a frequency to insure proper operation but at least
monthly and after storm events. For example, lagoons, storage ponds, and other
structures should be inspected for evidence of erosion, leakage, damage by animals or
discharge. Any major structural repairs (to lagoons or waste storage ponds) must have
written documentation from a technical specialist certifying proper design and
installation. However, if a piece of equipment is being replaced with a piece of
equipment of the identical specifications, no technical specialist approval is necessary
[i.e. piping, reels, valves, pumps (if the GPM capacity is not being increased or
decreased), etc.].
3

e. Failure to maintain storage capacity in a lagoon/storage greater than or equal to that
required in Condition V (3) of this General Permit.
f. Overapplying animal waste either in excess of the limits set out in the CAWMP or
where runoff enters surface waters.
g. Any discharge that bypasses a lagoon/storage pond resulting in a discharge to surface
waters or that poses a serious threat to the environment..
For any emergency which requires immediate reporting after normal business
hours, please contact the Division of Emergency Management at 2.800.858-0368.
The Permittee shall also file a written report to the appropriate DWQ Regional Office of
the occurrence within 5 calendar days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This
report shall outline the actions taken or proposed to be taken to correct the problem and to
ensure that the problem does not recur. The requirement to file a written report may not
be waived by the DWQ Regional Office.
IV. INSPECTIONS
Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the DWQ may, upon
presentation of credentials and in accordance with reasonable and appropriate biosecurity
measures, enter and inspect any property, premises or place on or related to the collection,
treatment, storage and Iand application system at any reasonable time for the purpose of
determining compliance with this permit; may inspect and obtain a copy of any records
that must be kept under the terms and conditions of this permit; and may obtain samples
of the animal waste, groundwater,. soil, plant tissue, or surface water.
V. GENERAL COININTIONS
The issuance of a COC under this permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the
responsibility for damages to surface waters or ground waters resulting from the animal
operation.
2. The Permittee shall designate a certified animal waste management system operator to be
in charge (OIC) of the animal waste management system. The animal waste management
system shall be operated by the OIC or a person under the OIC's supervision.
The mazimurri waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the
CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not
exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain ' the 25 -year, 24-hour storm
event plus an additional 1 foot of structural ' freeboard. In ' addition to 'the above
requirements, for new and expanding fauns with lagoon designs completed after
September 1, 1996, storage must also be provided for the heavy rainfall factor for lagoons
without an outside drainage area.
In the case of Lagoons/storage ponds in series that are gravity fed, the 25 -year, 24-hour
storm event and/or the heavy rainfall factor storage requirements for the system may be
designed into the lowest lagoon/storage pond in the system. However, adequate
freeboard must be designed into each of the upper lagoons/storage ponds to allow
sufficient storage to prevent the waste, level 'from raising into the structural freeboard
while the storm water is draining into the lowest lagoon'in the system.
61

11. The Groundwater Compliance Boundary for the disposal system constructed after
December 31, 1983, is estab3ished at either (1) 250 feet from the waste structures and
from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is
closest to the waste structures and the waste disposal area. If this facility was constructed
prior to December 31, 1983, the Compliance Boundary is established at either (1) 500
feet from the waste disposal area, or (2) at the property boundary, whichever is closest to
the waste disposal area. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond
the Compliance Boundary is subject to the requirements -of 15A NCAC 2L and the
Division in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under the North Carolina
General Statutes.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface 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. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. 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 DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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

17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications 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 soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal 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)

Bio -Cap®, Bio -Cap ML Material and Design Specifications
Use of this document for purposes other than reference by clients or certified agents of clients of
Baumgartner Environics, Inc. (BEI) is strictly prohibited. Bio -Cap® and Bio -Cap MLTM are
registered trademarks of BEI and all materials or references pertaining to Bio -Cap or Bio -Cap
MLTM are the sole property of BEI. Bio-Capa processes and application technology described
herein are patent pending and under jurisdiction of the United States patent office.
Bio -Cad fabric is a non -woven, needle punched, polypropylene fiber, stabilized to resist
degradation due to ultraviolet light exposure. This felt -like material has a specific gravity less
than 1 and, therefore, floats like a sponge on water. It will stretch half or more of its original
length before failure, has a grab tensile strength of 225 lbs. or more, weighs 9 ozlyd2 or more,
has an approximate apparent opening size equal to a 100 U.S. Sieve. The Bio -Cap ML material
has additional layers of closed cell foam flotation and a top sacrificial layer of woven or non-
woven material to provide protection from UV degradation. The resultant Bio -Cap ML has a
longer Iifespan and better flotation throughout its life than the original. See diagram I for graphic
representation.
Stock rolls of Bio -Cap ®(ML) fabric must be fabricated into a single cover the size of the top
inside dimensions of the open storage structure as follows:
• Each basin to be covered is evaluated to select the most efficient side of the basin upon
which to build the cover. A minimum fabrication area width is required along the length of
the berm upon which the cover is fabricated to accommodate the width of the stock rolls of
Bio -Cap (ML) fabric being used. If the area width constraint is met, the berm selected will
be the longest berm if a rectangle, the longest side adjacent to the right angle if the basin is a
right triangle, along the hypotenuse if an obtuse triangle, along either long side. of an
isosceles triangle, and along the longest side of a polygon. A circular or oblong basin cover
will be fabricated in an area of the above described minimum width and parallel to the
longest distance across the surface area of the basin. This evaluation and design process may
or may not entail the use of specially developed computer software.
• A roll of Bio-Cap®(ML) fabric is rolled out along the berm selected for fabrication. Another
layer of fabric is then rolled out on top and slightly offset on one side of the first layer. The
exposed edge of the bottom layer of fabric is then rolled over the top Iayer of fabric by
approximately three inches all along the length. The seaming process described below is

employed to join the two layers of fabric together. Another layer of fabric is then rolled out
on top of the seamed geo-textile, and the process is repeated on the other side. This process
continues until the design criteria mentioned above are met and the final product is
adequately sized so that lagoon is covered up to the top inside berm. Individual Bio -Cap®
(ML) fabric layer Iengths are cut to the length necessary to create the ultimate desired shape
of the cover.
• Seaming is best accomplished using a specialized heat welder to fuse overlapping seams
together, but may also be accomplished with a,sewing machine, though when sewn, an ultra-
violet light inhibiting thread must be used.
• The resultant product of this process is a complete Bio -Caps cover, fan -folded on the build
berm of the lagoon and ready to be deployed.
• The un -seamed edge of the top layer of the cover is wrapped around floatation and tacked
together using a hot air gun to melt the adjoined Bio-Cap®(ML) material together. This is
done to create a leading edge of the cover that will float over scum and debris on top of the
basin when the cover is pulled into place across the basin.
• DepIoyment ropes of sufficient tensile strength are attached to the floating leading edge of
the cover at up to eight points. These deployment ropes are stretched across the basin to the
opposite berm.
• Stakes with flange plates are pressed into the middle of the top flat area of the berm
approximately equi-distant to each other. These stakes have pulleys attached through which
the deployment ropes are threaded and are brought to a central point where a single mandrel
is located.
• The cover is deployed using a single segmented, hydraulic mandrel to which the deployment
ropes are attached. The mandrel is then rotated to wind the deployment ropes onto the
mandrel. This pulls the cover squarely across the basin as the fan -folded cover on the berm
unfolds to cover the surface area.
• The cover is normally tethere�eay-d�uty
eet or less around the
perimeter of theo ounda=nchors=escrrZed
elow.
• The tether is connected to the cover without unc eo- extile material and the
tethering rope is ultra-vio an possesses sufficient tensile strength not to
break u er related stress.
• Traditional duckbill ground anchors are used as tethering point a cover to the
earthen berm of the basin. They �areinse ground toa depth sufficient to
withstand weather rel pet back from the inside berm so as not to
impair the ' y of a compacted clay liner.

3
• The cover must be positioned squarely in place to cover the entire surface area, above the
high-water line of the organic slurry storage structure.
• As an alternate to tethering in high -wind prone geography, the margin of the cover may be
placed in a trench with a vertical sidewall that is dug around the perimeter of the basin above
the operational high-water line. The trench is back-filled after the margin of the cover has
been placed in the open trench. The margin of the cover is buried at a depth sufficient to
withstand weather-related stress.
• Securing the margins of the cover is important but it should also be known that this process is
only to keep the outside edges in place. Once deployed, the Bio -Cap® fabric contacts and
saturates with liquid and increases in weight by up to five times. This phenomenon is most
responsible for holding the cover securely in place on the storage structure. The two
processes work in conjunction with one another and make the Bio -Cap® cover quite
unsusceptible to high winds or other environmental stress.
Once in place, the cover suppresses the release of malodorous gases in four ways: First, the
cover fabric is porous and it restricts the release of gas to a volume equal to its permitivity.
Second, vapor pressure under the cover causes small areas of the cover to inflate and rise from
the surface of the organic slurry in a low -profile manner. Under observation, the cover appears
to develop sand dune -like ripples. These elevated areas permit oxygen to diffuse from the
atmosphere into the surface of the fabric and create a humid environment. The presence of
oxygen enables endemic facultative and/or aerobic bacteria to exist and break down malodorous
gases passing through the cover to the atmosphere. Third, the anaerobic zone on the underside of
the cover provides a substrate to which anaerobic methanogenic bacteria may attach and break
down malodorous gases passing through the cover to the atmosphere. Fourth, the thin layer of
Bio -Cape fabric forms a barrier to mass transfer of gas based on two -film theory. This provides
especially effective reduction in the transfer of short chain carbon ring volatile organic
compounds through the cover to the atmosphere. The result is effective odor control.
The physical barrier of the cover plays an important metering function. In explanation, large
volumes of malodorous gases are normally stripped from open structures due to agitation caused
by wind, wave action or pummeling rainfall. The cover prevents stripping of gases and the
permitivity (or porosity) of the fabric meters malodorous gas into the small aerobic environment
on the surface of the fabric.
Ultraviolet light degradation will be the eventual cause of cover failure. It is anticipated that the
Bio -Cape fabric used will last at least three full calendar years, though actual experience for this
duration has not yet been recorded. Bio -Cap MLTM fabric is expected to last at least six full
calendar years. When the fabric has deteriorated beyond repair, the cover should be removed
from the surface of the storage structure, spread out, and left to drain and dry. If burning permits
are available, the material may be burned, or it may be taken to a landfill. At this time, a new
cover should be fabricated and positioned in place.

4
Maintenance and Repair
The Bio -Cap ®(ML) cover will remain in place year-round once in position and will not require
regular maintenance. The Bio -Cap ®(ML) fabric has superior elongation properties allowing it to
accommodate freeze -thaw without damage.
Regular inspections of the Bio -Cap ®(ML) by site managers are recommended. Operators should
report any damage to the Bio-Cap®(ML) cover to their management and ultimately to BEI.
The cover must stay anchored around the perimeter unless care is taken to secure the open area
with rope or other means. Recharge pumps or other equipment can be carefully removed from
under the cover by slowly pulling them out with an attached rope or cable. They can be replaced
similarly while working the cover over them. Care should be taken when doing this so as not to
damage the cover or the equipment.
The cover should not be pulled back when agitating the effluent under the cover. There is a
possibility of damaging the cover by getting it caught in the agitation equipment or inadvertently
getting manure solids on top of the cover. If agitation under the cover is desired, it is
recommended that an engineered lift or opening system be installed to gain access to effluent and
protect the cover during agitation.
Although the Bio -Cap® is quite buoyant, it will not support human weight. Walking on the
cover is not recommended. A small, lightweight boat is recommended for workers to perform
tasks on top of the cover. It can be pulled along on top of the cover with an attached rope. A
Personal Flotation Device should be worn at all times when on the inside of the berm and on top
of the cover.
In the event the cover is damaged in some way, repairs or patching can be performed by hand
sewing or welding/fusing with a liester or wedge welder. The Bio -Cap® has no mechanical
parts, gas flares, or other parts to maintain or repair and works passively as described above to
mitigate gases and odors.

RE: T -H PROPOSAL #KA -2199
TUTHILL/MD PNEUMATICS
DATE: OCTOBER 17, 2002
Attached please find Proposal #KA -2199 for the blower package you
requested. Per our discussions, to keep you in a 10 -HP motor, 240 volt,
single phase, we needed to lower the operating pressure for this blower.
This blower is sized at an operating pressure of 12 PSI and a relief
pressure of 13 PSI. 240 volt, single phase motors are only available to
15 -HP. Your original specifications of 15 PSI would have put as in a
15 -HP motor and would have been a 3 phase motor.
I have also included an application worksheet, a blower curve, and a
preliminary drawing.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 913-888-
8486.

ROSE HILL, NC 28458 DATE: 10/25/02
COUNTY: SAMPSON SHEET 1 OF 2
SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF AEROBIC DIGESTER AND
POLISHINGISTORAGE BASIN
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
The foundation area of the BASIN embankment shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots,
brush, boulders, sod, and rubbish. The contractor shall be responsible for the disposition of
all debris to the satisfaction of the owner. The topsoil from basin area should be stripped and
stockpiled for use of the dike. After stripping, the foundation area of the basin embankment
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. Earthfll 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 material may 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 shall be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping roller or equivalent method. Compaction shall be considered
adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not
readily detectable. 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 with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet of more fall under
the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law and require permitting by the NC Dept. of
Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section. 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:
A 40 mil HDPE liner shall be furnished and installed by the contractor in accordance with the
liner manufacturers guidelines. Liner, as shown on the drawing, shall be manufactured by
GSE Inc. or owner approved equivalent.

ROSE HILL, NC 28458 DATE: 10/25/02
COUNTY: SAMPSON SHEET 2 OF 2
When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they shall be overexcavated 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 material approved by the owner.
REFER TO THE DRAWINGS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when called for in the notes
on the drawings or as shown on a typical cross section on the drawings. The final
dimensions of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials during construction.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned
type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the seeding
specifications. Topsoil, if available on site shall be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be
seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if recommended permanent vegetation
is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation shall be established as soon as
possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS:
An observation trench shall be dug along the perimeter of the basins 25 feet outside the
proposed embankment toe to verify that no subsurface drain tile lines are present in the
lagoon area. The trench shall be dug to a minimum depth of five feet and shall have a width
adequate to accommodate equipment used for backfill and compaction. Trench side slopes
shall be 1:1 or flatter. Trench backfill shall be compacted as stated in the EXCAVATION
AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT section of the specification.
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 25 feet beyond
the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with
material approved by the engineer or his representative. Tile drains that are removed shall
be either capped off or rerouted around the lagoon, as directed by the engineer or his
representative.
SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS:
All operations shall be carried out in a safe, skillful, and workmanlike manner. All safety and
health regulations shall be observed and appropriate personal safety and health measures
used at all times by the contractor during construction.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
This lagoon and basin system is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180
days of temporary storage. The time required forthe 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 X180 days of temporary storage.for:
(1) manure production of animals, (2) excess fresh water storage, (3) rainfall in
excess of evaporation, (4) storage for the 25 year 124 hour storm for the location,
(5) and, if applicable, an additional "heavy rain" storage volume for chronic rainfall
events. Allocation for any additional fresh water usage is also included in the
temporary storage. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals
will be fairly constant throughout the 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 staff gauge must be installed in the lagoon and basins that indicates the start pumping andl
stop pumping levels. The start pumping level is the maxium liquid level under normal operatir
conditions. The stop pumping level is the minimum liquid level under normal
operation to maintain required treatment volume and depth. Pumping can be started
and stopped anywhere 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. However, it is recommended that the lagoon be kept
pumped down as much as possible.
Land application of wastewater is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal.
Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling guns. Care
should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is required that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one-half the treatent volume
or as otherwise specified on the lagoon design drawings before wastes are introduced.
The purpose is to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Precharging 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. The plan recommends
sampling and testing of waste before land application.

3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when the fluid level reaches the
elevation 105.8' as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump -out when the fluid level
reaches elevation 103.7' This temporary storage, less 25 year 124 hour storm,
contains 140,355 cubic feet or 1,049,928 gallons..
4. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the Poiishing/Storage Basin when the fluid level
reaches the elevation 103.3' as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump -out when the fluid
level reaches elevation 99.5'. This temporary storage, less 25 year 124 hour. storm,
also includes excess precipitation storage from the Aerobic Digester.
Both basins contains 100,521 cubic feet or 751,949 gallons.
5. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the
recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches per hour. Refer to the waste
utilization plan for further details.
6. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed
annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand.
7. Repair any eroded or damaged areas and establish in vegetation.
8. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets.
9. Keep a minimum of 75 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 such that waste will not reach other property and public
rights-of-way.
10. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters
of the United States. Waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by either discharge or by over -spraying. The Department of Environment,
Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management,
has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

Emeraencv Actlon Plan
Using this outline as guidance, you should develop a specific emergency action plan for your
waste handling system. This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your
operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes
reach surface water or leave your property to consider -that you have a problem. You should
make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be available to all
employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any time. Your
plan should follow this format:
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to problems are listed below:
A. Lagoon or basin overflow -possible solutions are:
add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam -any permanent
alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified professional engineer
or qualified technical specialist
pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate
stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waters) --hold waste in house if possible
call a pumping contractor
make sure no surface water is entering lagoon
NOTE: The above listed activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded
the temporary storage level.
B. Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
immediately stop waste application
create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field
incorporate waste to reduce further runoff
C. Leakage from the waste distribution system:
pipes and sprinklers -actions include:
stop recycle (flushing system) pump
stop irrigation pump
- close valves to eliminate further discharge
- separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
flush system, houses, solids separators -actions include:
- stop recycle (flushing system) pump
- stop irrigation pump
- make sure no siphon effect has been created
- separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
D. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon or basins. Often these are seepage as opposed to
flowing leaks -possible action':
dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage put in a submersible
pump, and pump back into a lagoon or basin cabable of holidng the seepage volume
if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and
fill holes and compact with a clayey soil
other holes may be likewise temporarily Dluaaed with clan soil

INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS
This permit is issued to Murphy Farms, LLC to facilitate the installation and operation of an innovative
animal waste management system on the HarrelIs Farm, in furtherance of the goals of the Agreement
entered into by Smithfield Foods, Inc. and the Attorney General of North Carolina on July 25, 2000.
This permit supercedes Certificate of Coverage AWS820028 as long as the innovative animal waste
management system is in use. Only if the innovative animal waste management system is no longer
active and in use, may the farm owner revert back to coverage under COC number AWS820028.

These introductory provisions are enforceable portions of this Permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until January 31, 2008, and shall be subject to
the following specified conditions and limitations.
1. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
1. The animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system permitted
under this permit shall be effectively maintained and operated as a non -discharge system
to prevent the discharge of pollutants to surface waters, wetlands, or ditches. Application
of waste at agronomic rates to terraces and grassed waterways is acceptable in accordance
with Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Standards. If the Permitees are in
compliance with this permit, and unintentionally discharge as a result of a -storm event
greater than the 25 -year, 24-hour storm, the facility will not be considered to be in
violation of this permit.
2. A violation of the this Permit may result in the Permittee having to take immediate or
long term corrective action(s) as required by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
These actions may include ceasing use of the innovative technology, modifying operation
of the innovative technology, modifying the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP), ceasing land
application of waste; or removing animals from the farm.
A corrective action of removing animals from the farm will not be necessary as long as
the existing animal waste management system is operable in accordance with COC
AWS820028.
This facility may not be 'expanded above the capacity shown in this permit until a new
permit reflecting the expansion has been issued.
4. A copy of this permit, the Waste Utilization Plan, approved design documents, as -built
specifications, operation and maintenance plan, and all certification'forms shall be readily
available at the farm (stored at places such as the farm residence, office, outbuildings,
etc.) where animal waste management activities are being conducted for the life of this
permit. These documents shall be kept in good condition and records shall be maintained
in an orderly fashion.
5. Upon completion of construction and prior to operation of the innovative wastewater
treatment system, the certification, signed and sealed by a professional engineer must be
submitted by the Permittee certifying that the permitted facility has been installed in
accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other supporting
materials. Mail the Certification to the Water Quality Section, Non -Discharge Permitting
Unit, 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617.
6. The Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone [phone], shall be notified by the
Permittee at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of operation of the installed facilities
so that an in-place inspection -can be made. Such notification to the regional supervisor
shall be made during the normal 'office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday
through Friday, excluding State Holidays.

7. The spray irrigation facilities shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times so
that there is no discharge to the surface waters, nor any contamination of ground waters
which will render them unsatisfactory for normal use. In the event that the facilities fail
to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions or failure of the
irrigation area to adequately assimilate the wastewater, the Permittee shall take immediate
corrective actions including those actions that may be required by the Division.
8. The following buffers shall be maintained when constructing the innovative wastewater
treatment system:
a) 100 feet between wastewater treatment units and any wells, and
b) 50 feet between wastewater treatment units and property lines.
H. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. The collection, treatment, and storage facilities, and land application equipment and fields
shall be maintained at all times and properly operated.
2. A suitable vegetative cover shall be maintained on all land application sites and buffers in
accordance with the submitted Waste Utilization Plan. No waste may be applied upon
fields not approved by or prepared in accordance with the WUP.
3. All changes to the WUP must be approved by the Division of Water Quality. A permit
modification should be requested and issued prior to any changes to the WUP being put
into effect.
4. An acceptable pH of the -soil shall be maintained on all land application sites to insure
optimum yield for the crop(s) being grown.
5. Land application rates, hydraulic loading rates, cropping rotations and application
windows shall be in accordance with the Waste Utilization Plan and/or a representative
Waste Analysis Report. In no case shall land application rates exceed the Plant Available
Nitrogen rate for the receiving crop or result in runoff during any given application.
5. Application of animal waste onto land which is used to grow crops for direct human
consumption (e.g., strawberries, melons, lettuce, cabbage, apples, etc.) shall not occur
following the planting of the crop or at any time during the growing season, or in the case
of fruit bearing trees, following breaking dormancy. Application of animal wastes shall
not occur within 30 days of the harvesting of fiber and food crops for direct human
consumption that undergo further processing.
7. If manure is applied on conventionally tilled bare soil, the waste shall be incorporated
into the soil within two (2) days after application on the land. This requirement does not
apply to no -till fields, pasture, or fields where crops are actively growing.
Domestic and/or industrial wastewater from showers, toilets, sinks, etc. shall not be
discharged into the animal waste collection, treatment, and storage and application
system. Washdown of stock trailers, owned by and used to transport animals to and from
this farm only, will be permissible as long as the system can accommodate the additional
volume. Only those detergents and disinfectants that are labeled by the manufacturer as
readily biodegradable may be utilized.

9. Disposal of dead animals shall be done in accordance with the North Carolina
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDACS) Veterinary .Division's
regulations.
10. Unless accounted for in temporary storage volume, all uncontaminated runoff from the
surrounding property and buildings shall be diverted away from the animal waste system,
including but not limited to, lagoons, storage ponds and/or open storage structures to
prevent any unnecessary addition to the liquid volume in the structures.
IL . A protective vegetative cover shall be established and maintained on all earthen basin

Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change
Dear Permittee:
Coleen H. Sullins Director
Division of Water Quality
In accordance with Condition 111.19 of State General Permit AWG 100000, your facility is
required to maintain compliance regarding sludge accumulation in your animal waste treatment
lagoon(s). As you know, the previous compliance limit was to have a minimum of four (4) feet
of treatment depth between the designed stop pump and the average elevation of the top of the
sludge blanket. This requirement was based on NRCS Standard No. 359, which was recently
modified.
As of July 2008, Standard No. 359 does not use the 4 -foot requirement. Sludge compliance is
now to be based on the sludge volume as a percentage of the total treatment volume. The revised
Standard states that sludge accumulation in the permanent treatment zone must be less than 50%
of the planned treatment volume. Also, there must be a minimum of 2.5 feet of liquid above the
sludge at the pump intake location. If either of these conditions is not met then sludge must be
removed or managed in accordance with an approved Plan of Action for Lagoon Sludge
Reduction (POA). A new sludge survey worksheet has been developed to calculate sludge and
treatment volumes to determine compliance.
Our records indicate that you have filed a Sludge POA for one or more of the lagoons at your
facility. Based on the changes to the sludge requirements in Standard No. 359, your lagoon(s)
may already be in compliance without any sludge removal. Using your lagoon design (or as -
built information) and current sludge survey measurements, complete the NEW sludge survey
worksheet. If you'have any difficulty in locating or understanding your lagoon design
information, please contact your technical specialist or county Soil & Water office.

AW1820028
Dear Ms. Homewood:
The following information is provided in response to your January 6, 2003 letter
requesting additional information to support permit application AWI820028:
ITEM 1 Potential structural weaknesses associated with the addition of the wet well in
an earthen berm will be addressed during construction. The liquid level of the primary
lagoon will be drawn down to a minimum of 5.5 feet from the top berm so that the
crossover pipe between the lagoon and wet well can be installed. To prevent seepage
around the crossover pipe, a non -seep collar will be installed where the pipe enters the
berm, and clay (in-situ or brought in) will be compacted around the pipe. The wet well
will be located at least 12 horizontal feet from the maximum operating liquid level and
disturbed earth around the wet well will also be compacted to prevent any structural
weaknesses from seepage, or earth settling.
ITEM 2 — The primary lagoon's liquid level will be monitored according to Murphy
Farm's current standard operating procedure. The permeable cover to be placed on the
primary lagoon will have a reinforced hole where the liquid level staff gage is located.
The hole will allow someone to visually observe the changing liquid level and allow the
cover to rise and fall around the staff gage.
ITEM 3 -- Note that mass cannot be created nor destroyed. The sludge generated by the
aerobic digester will always be less than what is fed to it. The primary treatment will be
the covered anaerobic lagoon, which will destroy about 75% of the total solids input from
the farm. Therefore, The maximum solids loading to the aeration basin will be about
25% of farm total. Based on the principles of aerobic metabolism, about 60% (i.e. 60% of
25% = 15%) of the solids fed to an aerobic digester will be converted to biomass if the
system is operated above a food/microbial (FIM) ratio of 0.2. This minimal solid will be
suspended with diffused air in an MLSS of less than 3,500 mg/L. Note that the net
effluent from the aerobic digester is returned to the Polishing/Storage Basin for
denitrification and subsequent use of nutrient for agronomic plant uptake.

ITEM 4 — The control panel indicated in the engineering drawing will be the one used a
for the whole system. The computer referenced in the application document is a 2 -
inch x 4 -inch x 3 -inch module that uses a windows CE operating system, It is l
manufactured by Automation Direct Inc. (reference www.automatiMgirect.coni) and

1 have completed review of the submitted information pertaining to the above referenced facility and
include the following recommendations and comments:
* There is not a reference as to how the liquid levels will be monitored for the covered lagoon. Some type of
gauge must be installed to allow for freeboard measurements after cover is installed.
• The nitrification process should produce excess biosolids in the aerobic digester and possibly in the polishing
basin. Since this is not a complete mix system, solids settling will occur. Regular solids monitoring should
be included in the maintenance plan for the aerobic digester and polishing basin. A solids handling plan
should be established for clean out procedures. The waste management plan for this facility does not include
enough land for onsite solids disposal.
• This system is taking a small part of the land application site. Even with a 25% reduction in nitrogen for
several of the houses, there is only a 123 Ib -PAN deficit. The polishing basin will become the primary basin
for land application, however, there is only 92 days of storage in the polishing basin. Land application
management must be intensively managed to maintain proper freeboard levels.
• The only control panel shown on the drawings is with the blower. Will this be the control panel of the whole
system? The application package indicated that computer would automate all controls. Where will the
central computing unit be housed?

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

This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. 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 nutrients. 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 definatefy interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on 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 2203.2 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based an the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 11016 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 36 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 88.128 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 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 maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 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.

according to this plan at the appropriate times and at rates which produce no runoff.
This plan will be filed on site at the farm office and at the office of the local Soil and Water
Conservation District and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request.

Additional Comments:
This is not a plan revision. Plan is written by pulls instead of fields.
Acres shown are 'wetted' acres. All pulls must be alternately grazed and
hayed with at least 112 of dry matter production removed by haying. This
will require rotation grazing of bermuda fields during the March - Sept time
frame. All small grain may be cut for hay. PAN production is based on
2 of 5 houses utilizing an alternative technology waste system which will
reduce nitrogen available for these two houses by a minimum of 25%.

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

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,
1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland
provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist", Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste -from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
2of3

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