Narrative of Irrigation System Operation
This system is designed to provide an underground dry hydrant system for this producer, who has been
using above ground aluminum piping. The original siting date for this farm was Sept. 1993. Applicable setbacks
for this design include only a 100' setback from a well. No residences or waters of the state fall into the design
area.
Effective wetted acreage criteria have been used for this design. The producer will be purchasing a 3.0" Ag-Rain
traveiier (engine drive) for use with this system. The topography and soil type of this site make it possible to use
the ring size and pressure shown in this design.
The pump being used will deliver the pressure and flow outlined, but because the company manufacturing the pump
is out of business, no literature could be found. The system will need to be calibrated after installation to insure
that the pump will perform as described.
The producer is familiar with the operation of the equipment being used. Questions on start-up, R&M, and winterization
should be asked of the designer or irrigation dealer supplying the equipment.°7 2c�

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.

average catch
The average catch is the value computed in item 8. The average deviation from the
average catch is the determined by computing the difference between each container
catch and the average catch.
10. Interpret the calibration data and make necessary adjustments. _
For travelers with proper overlap and operated in light wind, an application _
uniformity greater than 80 percent is common.
Application uniformity between 60 to 80 percent is in the "good" range and is
acceptable for wastewater application.
Generally, an application uniformity below 60 percent is considered unacceptable for
wastewater irrigation using travelers. If the computed U., is less than 60 percent,
system adjustments are required. Contact your irrigation dealer or Certified Technical
Specialist for assistance.

The system should be operated such that the minimum travel distance of the gun cart exceeds t
the wetted diameter of throw. Application volumes should be read as soon as the last gauges .i
stop being wetted.
Calibration Procedures
1. Determine the wetted diameter of the gun.
2. Determine the necessary spacing between collection gauges. For a wetted diameter of
320 f8et, the rain gauge spacing should not exceed 20 feet. (320 ft 1 16 = 20 ft).
3. Determine the number of gauges required. (Minimum number is 16). Label gauges
outward from the gun cart as either left of right (LI, L2, L3, etc; Rl, R2, R3 etc.)
4. Set out gauges along a transect as labeled and shown in Figure 1, equally spaced at
the distance determined in item 2 (20 feet). The transect should be at least one wetted
diameter from either end of the -pull.
4. Operate the system for the time required for the gun to completely pass all collection
containers. Record the time of operation (duration in minutes) and distance traveled in
feet.
5. Immediately record the amounts collected in each gauge_ (Refer to Table 1 for an
example)
6. Identify those gauges that fall outside the effective land spacing, Figure 2. This
volume is the overlap volume that would be collected when operating the system on
the adjacent lane.
7. Superimpose (left to right and vice versa) the gauges just outside the effective width
to the gauges just inside the of ective width. Add the volumes together. For th& layout
shown in Figure 2, the volume collected in gauge R8 is added to gauge 1-5; R7 is
added to L6; L8 is added to R6; and L7 is added to R6. This is now the application
volume within the effective lane spacing adjusted for overlap:
Add the amounts in #7 and divide by the number of gauges within the effective area..
This is the average application volume (inches).

Calibration should be performed during periods of low evaporation. Best times are before 10
am or after A pm on days with light wind (less than 5 MPH On cool, cloudy days the
calibration can'be performed anytime during the day.
The volume collected during calibration should be read as soon as a zone or sprinkler is shut
off to nvni.rnize evaporation from the rain gauge. Where a procedure must be performed
more than once, containers should be read and values recorded immediately after each
different set up..
,Calibration set-up for Hard Hose and Cable Tow Traveling Guns
Hard hose and cable tow traveling guns are calibrated by placing a ]row (transect) of
collection containers perpendicular to the direction of travel, Figure 1. Multiple transects
increase the accuracy of the calibration.

DRAFT
Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment
HARD HOSE AND CABLE TOW TRAVELER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
R. O. Bvaris and J. C. Barker
Information presented in manufacturers charts are based on average operating conditions for
relatively new - equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change over time as
equipment gets older and components wear. Operating an irrigation system differently than
assumed in the design will alter the application rate, uniformity of coverage, and
subsequently the application uniformity. Operating; 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.
Irrigation equipment should be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure proper application rates
and uniformity. Calibration is a simple procedure involving collecting and measuring the
material being applied at several locations in the application area. Calibration helps ensure
that nutrients from animal waste are applied efficiently and at proper rates.
General Guidelines
The calibration of a hard hose or cable tow system involves setting out collection containers,
operating the system, measuring the amount of wastewater collected in each container, then
computing the average application volume and application uniformity.
An in -line flow meter installed in the main irrigation line provides an accurate and easy
method of computing average application volume for each irrigation cycle.
Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate.
Standard rain gauges work best and are recommended because they already have a graduated
scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform mathematical
conversions, _
Pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross section can be used
provided the container is deep enough to prevent splash (at least 4 inches deep), excessive
evaporation, and the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for
measuring. All containers should be the same size and shape to simply application depth
computations.
All collection containers should be set up at the same height relative to the height of the gun
discharge elevation (nozzle). The top of the container should be no more than 35 inches
above the ground.

Narrative of Irrigation System Operation
This system is designed to provide an underground dry hydrant system for this producer, who has been
using above ground aluminum piping. The original siting date for this farm was Sept. 1993. Applicable setbacks
for this design include only a 100' setback from a well. No residences or waters of the state fall into the design
area.
Effective wetted acreage criteria have been used for this design. The producer will be purchasing a 3.0" Ag-Rain
traveller (engine drive) for use with this system. The topography and soil type of this site make it possible to use
the ring size and pressure shown in this design.
The pump being used will deliver the pressure and flow outlined, but because the company manufacturing the pump
is out of business, no literature could be found. The system will need to be calibrated after installation to insure
that the pump will perform as described.
The producer is familiar with the operation of the equipment being used. Questions on start-up, R&M, and winterization
should be asked of the designer or irrigation dealer supplying the equipment. (;3?7 e,

Tests for pressure strength and leaks shall be .accom-
plished by inspecting the pipeline and appurtenances while
the maximum working pressure is maintained and all joints
and connections are uncovered, or by observing normal
operation of the pipeline after it is put into service. Partial
backfills needed to hold the pipe in place during testing
shall be placed as specified in "Initial Backfiil." Any leaks
shall be repaired and the system retested.
The pipeline shall be tested to insure that it functions
properly at design capacity. At or below design capacity
there shall be no objectionable flow conditions. Objectiona-
ble flow conditions shall include water hammer, continuing
unsteady delivery of water, damage to the pipeline, or detri-
mental discharge from, control valves.
Initial backfill. Hand, mechanical, or water packing meth-
ods may to used.
The initial backfill material shall be soil or sand that is
tree from rocks or stones larger than 1 in. in diameter. At
the time of placement. the moisture content of the material
shall be such that the required degree of compaction can
be obtained with the backfill method to be used. The initial
backfill material shall be placed so that the pipe will not be
displaced, excessively deformed, or damaged.
If backfilling is done by hand or mechanical means, the
initial fill shall be compacted firmly around and above the
pipe as required to provide adequate lateral support to the
pipe.
It the water packing method is used, the pipeline first
shall be filled with water. The initial backtill before wetting
shall be of sufficient depth to insure complete coverage of
the pipe after consolidation. Water packing is accomplished
by adding enough water to diked reaches of the trench to
thoroughly saturate the initial backfill without excessive
pooling. After the backfill is saturated. the pipeline shall
remain full until after the final backfill is made. The wened
fill shall be allowed to dry until firm before beginning the
final backfill.
Final backfill. The final backfill material shall be tree of
large rocks, frozen clods, and other debris greater than 3
in. in diameter. The material shall be placed and spread in
approximately uniform layers so that there will be no
unfilled spaces in the backtill and the backfill will be level
with the natural ground or at the design grade required to
provide the minimum depth of cover after settlement. Poll-
ing equipment shall not be used to consolidate the final
backfill until the specified minimum depth of cover has
been placed.
All special back -filling requirements of the pipe manufac-
turer shall be met.
Basis of acceptance. The acceptability of the pipeline
shall be determined by inspections to check compliance
with all the provisions of this standard with respect to the
design of the line, the pipe and pipe marking, the appurte-
nances, and the minimum installation requirements.
Certifications and guarantee. If requested by the state
conservation engineer, a qualified testing laboratory must
certify with supporting test results that the pipe meets the
requirements specified in this standard. The seal of
approval of a recognized laboratory on pipe bearing one of
the ASTM designations listed in this standard may be
accepted for this certification.
The installing contractor shall certify that his or her insmi-
lation complies with the requirements of this standard. He
or she shall furnish a written guarantee that protects the
owner against defective workmanship and materials for not
less than 1 year. The certification identifies the manufac-
turer and markings o1 the pipe used.

Quality of plastic pipe. The compound used in manufac-
turing the pipe shall meet the requirements of one of the

If rocks, boulders, or any other material that can damage
the pipe are encountered, the trench bottom shall be under-
cut a minimum of 4 in below final grade and filled with bed-
ding material consisting of sand or compacted fine-grained
soils.
Pipelines having a diameter of t,4 through 21h in that are
to be placed in areas not subject to vehicular loads and in
soils that do not crack appreciably when dry may be placed
by using "plow -in" equipment instead of conventional
trenching.
Provisions shall be made to insure safe working condi-
tions where unstable soil, trench depth, or other conditions
can be hazardous to personnel working in the trench.
Placement. Care shall be taken to prevent permanent dis-
tortion and damage when handling the pipe during unusu-
ally warm or cold weather. The pipe shall be allowed to
come within a tow degrees of the temperature it will have
after it is completely covered before placing the backfill,
other than that needed for shading, or before connecting
the pipe to other facilities. The pipe shall be uniformly and
continuously supported over its entire length on firm stable
material. Blocking or mounding shall not be used. to bring
the pipe to final grade.
For pipe with bell joints, bell holes shall be excavated in
the bedding material, as needed, to allow for unobstructed
assembly of the joint and to permit the body of the pipe to
be in contact with the bedding material throughout its
length.
Joints and connections. All joints and connections shall
be designed and constructed to withstand the design maxi-
mum working pressure for the pipeline without leakage and
to leave the inside of the line free of any obstruction that
may tend to reduce it3 capacity below design requirements.
All fittings, such as couplings, reducers, bends, tees, and
crosses, shall be installed according to the recornmmenda-
tions of the pipe manufacturer.
Fatings made of steel or other metals susceptible to cor-
rosion shall be adequately protected by being wrapped with
plastic tape or by being coated with a substance that has
high corrosion -preventative qualities. It plastic tape is used,
all surfaces shall be thoroughly cleaned and coated with a
primer compatible with the. tape before wrapping.
Thnist blocks. Thrust blocks must be formed against a
solid hand -excavated trench wall undamaged by mechani-
cal equipmord. They shall be constructed of concrete, and
the space between the pipe and trench wall shall be filled
to the height oL the outside diameter of the pipe or as spec-
ified by the manufacturer.
Testing. The pipeline shall be tested for pressure strength.
leakage, and proper functioning. The tests may be per-
formed before backfilling or anytime after the pipeline is
ready for service.

Soil- earing strength (Table 3)
In placing concrete thrust blocks, check with the manufacturer of the
pipe being used to ensure that the correct size thrust blocks are
being used.
There are a number of machines that can be used to prepare the
trench for PVC plastic pipe. Soil types, moisture content, depth of
trench required and type and diameter of pipe must be considered.
Generally chain trenches, wheEI trenches, backhoes, or vibrating plows
will be used for trench preparation.. The vibrating plow can only be
used for solvent weld PVC pipe and generally is limited to the smaller
diameter of pipe. Under most conditions the chain -trencher or wheel
trencher will be faster than the backhoe. Where wide trenches for large
pipe are required, the backhoe will be most satisfactory. If soil
conditions permit, long stretches of open trench will expedite pipe
installation. However, if rain is forecast the pipe should be installed
and the trench backfilled. To avoid sharp turns in the line at obstructions,
trenches should be curved within limits of curvature of the pipe.

Interpret the calibration data and make necessary adjustments.
For travelers with proper overlap and operated in light wind, an application uniformity
greater than 80 percent is common.
Application uniformity between 60 to 80 percent is in the "good" range and is acceptable
for wastewater application.
Generally, an application uniformity below 60 percent is considered unacceptable for
wastewater irrigation using travelers. If the computed U, is less than 60 percent, system
adjustments are required. Contact your irrigation dealer or Certified Technical Specialist

Ur =
average catch - average deviation from average catch
average catch
X 100
The average catch is the value computed in item 8. The average deviation from the
average catch is the determined by computing the difference between each container
catch and the average catch.
10. Interpret the calibration data and make necessary adjustments. _
For travelers with proper overlap and operated in light wind, an application
uniformity greater than 80 percent is common.
Application uniformity between 60 to 80 percent is in the "good" range and is
acceptable for wastewater application.
Generally, an application uniformity below 60 percent is considered unacceptable for
wastewater irrigation using travelers. If the computed U, is less than 60 percent,
system adjustments are required. Contact your irrigation dealer or Certified Technical
Specialist for assistance.

L
The system should be operated such that the minimum travel distance of the gun cart exceeds 1
the wetted diameter of throw. Application volumes should be read as soon as the last gauges
stop being wetted.
Calibration Procedures
1. Determine the wetted diameter of the gun.
2. Determine the necessary spacing between collection gauges. For a wetted diameter of
320 feet, the rain gauge spacing should not exceed 20 feet. (320 ft / 16 = 20 ft).
3. Determine the number of gauges required. (Minimum number is 16). Label gauges
outward from the gun cart as either left of right (Ll, L2, L3, etc; Rl, R2, R3 etc.)
4. Set out gauges along a transect as labeled and shown in Figure 1, equally spaced at
the distance detie mined in item' 2 (20 feet). The hunsect should be at least one wetted
diameter from either end of the pull.
4. Operate the system for the time required for the gun to completely pass all collection
containers. Record the time of operation (duration in minutes) and distance traveled in
feet.
5. Immediately record the amounts collected in each gauge. (Refer to Table 1 for an
example)
6. Identify those gauges that fall outside the effective land spacing, Figure 2. This
volume is the overlap volume that would be collected when operating the system on
the adjacent lane.
7. Superimpose {left to right and vice versa) the gauges just outside the effective width
to the gauges just inside the effective width. Add the volumes together. For the. layout
shown in Figure 2, the volume collected in gauge R8 is added to gauge L5; R7 is
added to L6; L8 is added to R6; and L7 is added to R6. This is now the application
volume within the effective lane spacing adjusted for overlap.
8. Add the amounts in #7 and divide by the number of gauges within the effective area.
This is the average application volume (inches),
sum of amounts collected in allgauges
Average application volume =---------
numberr of gauges within effective width

9. Compute the average travel speed =

in
Calibratioa should be performed during periods of low evaporation. Best times are before 10
am or after 4 pm on days with light wind (less than 5 MPH). On cool, cloudy days the
calibration can be performed anytime during the day.
The volume collected during calibration should be read as soon as a zone or sprinkler is shut
off to minimise evaporation from the rain gauge. Where a procedure must be performed
more than once, containers should be read and values recorded immediately after each
different set up._
Calibration set-up for Hard Hose and Cable Tow Traveling Guns
Hard hose and cable tow traveling guns are calibrated by placing a row (transect) of
collection containers perpendicular to the direction of travel, Figure 1. Multiple tra tsects
increase the accuracy of the calibration.

Containers should be spaced no further apart than 11$ the wetted radius of the gun (1116 of
the wetted diameter) not to exceed 25 feet. This means that at least 16 gauges should be used
in the calibration. Gauges should be set at least one full wetted diameter of throw from either
end of the travel land.

DRAFT
Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Fqufpment
HARD HOSE AND CABLE TOW TRAVELER EMGATION SYSTEMS
R.O. Evans and Y.C. Barker
Information presented in manufacturers charts are based on average operating conditions for
relatively new •oquipment. Discharge rates and application rates change over tune as
equipment gets older and components wear. Operating an irrigation system differently than
assumed in the design will alter the application rate, uniformity of coverage, and
subsequently the application uniformity. Operating 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.
Irrigation equipment should be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure proper application rates
and uniformity. 'Calibration is a simple procedure involving collecting and measuring the
material being applied at several locations in the application area. Calibration helps ensure
that nutrients from animal waste are applied efficiently and at proper rates.
General Guidelines
The calibration of a hard _hose or cable tow system involves setting out collection containers,
operating the system, measuring the amount of wastewater collected in each container, then
computing the average application volume and application uniformity.
An in -line flow meter installed in the main irrigation line provides an accurate and easy
method of computing average application volume for each irrigation cycle,
Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate.
Standard rain gauges work best and are recommended because they already have a'graduated
scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform mathematical
conversions. _
Pans, plastic buckets, Jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross section can be used
provided the container is deep enough to prevent splash (at least 4 inches deep), excessive
evaporation, and the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for
measuring. All containers should be the same size and shape to simply application depth
computations.
All collection containers should be set up at the same height relative to the height of the gun
discharge elevation (nozzle). The top of the container should be no more than 36 inches
above the ground.
Collectors should be located so that no interference from the crop occurs.

Narrative of irrigation System Operation
This system is designed to provide an underground dry hydrant system for this producer, who has been
using above ground aluminum piping. The original siting date for this farm was Sept. 1993. Applicable setbacks
for this design include only a 100' setback from a well. No residences or waters of the state fall into the design
area.
Effective wetted acreage criteria have been used for this design. The producer will be purchasing a 3.0" Ag-Rain
traveller (engine drive) for use with this system. The topography and soil type of this site make it possible to use
the ring size and pressure shown in this design.
The pump being used will deliver the pressure and Flow outlined, but because the company manufacturing the pump
is out of business, no literature could be found. The system will need to be calibrated after installation to insure
that the pump will perform as described.
The producer is familiar with the operation of the equipment being used. Questions on start-up, R&M, and winterization
should be asked of the designer or irrigation dealer supplying the equipment.

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 flan when there is a change in the operation,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
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.
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.
Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

(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 inctudes 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)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23
Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

(continued)
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 wastb should also be considered.
10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a
high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
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 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.

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
N&N Lucas
Facility Number 82-I91
Sampson County
Dear Nickie Lucas:
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.
Anevaluation by Scott Faircloth on 4/23/99 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 Scott Faircloth the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Scott Faircloth, 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 Scott Faircloth at [phone]. If within 90 days you are
unable to provide Scott Faircloth 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.

Cate ory 2:
Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the .
required time, DWO will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWO and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this Ietter 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. 57 L

INSTRUCTIONS _
All dams built with technical assittance*fr^m the Soil ronser.ation SerY;ce
must have a hazard classification assigned by the person responsible for :.
_ ._._appr_oving'the design. " • MEost farm ponds, -except -in borderline"cases; can
be classified after a complete field investigation without assuming failure
and. making.breach studies.' -This data sheet is to be used for recording
the information obtained through field studies and for documenting .the.
!hazard classification.:.' -Where there is a possibility'for'loss of life or ."
major property damage from a dam failure, an approved breach routing
procedure is to be used. ._(Consult with'the'� area'engineer.)
.Hazard-classifications'of dams"are�made'by evaluating the possibility
for loss of life acid the extent of damage that would result if the 'dam
-should.,suddenly breach-_ -that is --a section of the dam be suddenly and
`compjetely washed out.- It is to be assumed that a wall of water will be
released_.equai 16•the height 'of_ the dam. This flood wave will. .be reduced
in height.as it moves down the flood piain.`-The wave height;[depth of
__. flooding) should be evaluated .for -.a sufficient distance downstream -until '
the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements,
suc-h_as _homes,. bui.ld.ings, _roads, -uti-1 ities,.- reservoirs, etc. ' The breach
flood ,level will be reduced depending- on the valley storage, slope, 'and
___.openess of.the flood .plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes -
steeper than 10% should be given special consideration. One method of
_ eva-luation is -to --compare available valley storage (under flood conditions)
to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach
evaluated,with.a judgment estimate made of the flood wave -height -at all -
critical points downstream.
Should there be any questions about the hazard classification for a dam,
the .area engineer.should be consulted before making design commitments.-

the maximum liquid level, best management liquid level and
minimum liquid level. Above the maximum liquid level is the 25
year - 24 hour storm and the one foot freeboard. This area will be
painted red to alert the grower thatyour liquid level is in the

level. Maintain -lagoon liquid level around this point during
summer months, for. summer thunderstorms. Begin pumping

Proper lagoon liquid management should he a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
writ periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This meats
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future vret
periods. in the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
:Vaiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave 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.
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be 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 spraving, the herbicide mt:st riot he 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 PipP5---look for:
1 . separation of joints
7. cracks or breaks
3. Pccurnulatiori of Salts or rrlinwais
overall c onditic.;si of pipes

rdentified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate. experts.
You shotild record the level of the lagoon just prior to when fain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how rnuch your lagoon level will rise with a certain 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 inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
l . Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. rill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, tAing care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
.3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexfble pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
�. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of US percent of the full lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falts below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per `)00 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling; and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
Season.
Loading:
i he more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged Pack play, ako we>•k well.

WIN
Laporm surface --look foi:
1 . undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Ernbankment---look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability—slurnps or bulges
3. wet or darnp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger fagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by vsong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewails, thereby weakening the lagoon darn.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewal1, baffles in'the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave irnpacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakenirrg or the dam. If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert rr:miliar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix 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 technical expert.
Transfer Pumps --check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in 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 your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at Its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly 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
pars or humps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry al1 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:
I . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
'?, ride,? berm h��iglrt

Practice water conservation —minimize building water_usage and
spillage from leaking waterers,' broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spirlage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Management:
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show they
minimum liquid level and the.maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the wihter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than i foot to the lowest
point of the darn or embankment.
IDo not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
Frequently remove solids from Batch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is fo be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure p,an to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.

Possible Causes of i-agoon Failure
Upon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which. may lead to lagoon failures include. -
Modification of the lagoon structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels --high levels are a safety risk.
Failure -to inspect and maintain the darn.
Excess surface ,,Water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity --protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, of rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.

proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annuatly rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
havt! more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impelle!-
aurnp through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
t
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation Onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigatlon onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with draWine or sludge bad berm
an area beside lag m to receive the sludge to that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. Thr, application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previouf waste applications to that field and crop
.requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. iyou see soil material or the synthetic !ner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immed�ateiy and not resime until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
`han liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
Tree application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
r.ould increase the concern of neighbors.

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 waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient.' Waste should be analyzed before each appplication
cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.

The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage require-
ments 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.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
NOTE: 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 1087.8 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
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.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of onde every
6 months. In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
your structure be within 1 feet of the top of the dike.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 6
' If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
:-hat an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
� shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report
for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Plans and Specifications
PAGE 7
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
• during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within
a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility
to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is
a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste .should not be applied when the
wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally
tilled cropland. when applied to conservation tilled crops
or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in
the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file for .guidance.
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or
to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur
in order to control conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in
such a manner that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 a
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 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 into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and 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 Vrovide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
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 imple-
menting 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.

I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications
and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the ap-
proved animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above. I
(we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the
waste treatment and/or storage system or construction of new
facilities will require a new utilization plan and a new certification
to be submitted to DEM before the new animals are stocked.
I (we) understand that I must own or have access to equipment,
primarily irrigation equipment, to land apply the animal waste
described in this waste utilization plan. This equipment must be
available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge
occurs from the lagoon in a 25-year 1-day storm event. I also cer-
tify that the waste will be applied on the land according to this
plan at the appropriate times and at rates that no runoff occurs.
