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.
7_ Snilt Jmes are imnortant as they have different infiltration ra#es; leachina 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.
1 of 11
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. Pmvisinns shall be made fnr the area receivin_ a waste to
be fle)dble so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. 6me 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

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 definately 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. Yourproduction facility will produce
approximately 2561.76 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
It you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12808.8 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 42 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 102.4704 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 property
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 >100 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.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
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 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.
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).
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).
Uouid 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

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.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
13 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 bomestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed

If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a °closure piano 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 manvimurn stY%ru^ye ynl��me fnr waSte .Storey nonds.11
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.

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.
1 of 8
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 definately 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 nnrmal 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 2561.76 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12808.8 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 42 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 102.4704 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.

of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

Additional Comments:
The bermuda rate on this plan is a combination of hay & graze rates.
At least half the forage will be removed by haying.
Subfeld acreage is the balance of total field acreage minus wet acres. This
area is not covered by the conventional irrigation equipment & will be
applied on using an aerway machine.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
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.
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 himther 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.
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 mama-ement unless there are rani ilatinnc that rectrirt the rate of annliratinns fnr
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).
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).
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.
Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
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.
Warta shall not he annlied mnre 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-5prayiiij. Afliiriei Wci$te iiieji be applied to privy coiiVe led Lropiar'id
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.

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.

Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change
Dear Permittee:
Coleen H. Sullins Director
Division of Water Quality
In accordance with Condition 11!.19 of State General Permit AWGI00000, 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.

AQUM-PROTECT10N SECTION
DEC 2 7 2006
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 anslire 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
_ i:_r ._ �:__ a r a_�� 11.. but
year. YYaSte may be applieed LU Id -Ind e1-0ding al 5 or more tonso per afire annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
` rn
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
c:,
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
coo
under ©WO regulations.
d
v
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
C'
problems.
n
rn
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.

In accordance with your application received on July 26, 2004 we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Murphy -Brown, LLC, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES
General Permit NCA200000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Farm 2528, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater
than an annual average of 7116 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to
Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may
be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4
gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 1, 2007 and shall hereby void Certificate
of Coverage Number NCA282470 dated May 13, 2003. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and
required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the
General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and
maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility.
Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of
animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this
COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and
Federal general permit it contains many new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained
in the current State general permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit. The Animal Facility Annual Certification Farm must be
completed and returned to the Division of Water Quality by no later than March 1 st of each year.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon or any wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C, the Clean Water Act and 40 CFR 122.41 including civil penalties, criminal
penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual NPDES Permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on
this process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Fayetteville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Water Quality Staff may be reached at (910) 486-1541. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact Duane Leith at (919) 733-5083 ext. 370.

On March 14, 2003,.the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued an NPDES General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued to enable swine facilities in North Carolina to
obtain coverage under a single permit that addresses both State and Federal requirements.
In accordance with your application received on February 20, 2003, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Carroll's Foods Inc, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES
General Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supersedes and terminates your COC Number
AWS820470 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000.
This --royal shall consist of thr- nperntinn of this cvttgm including_ but not limited to; the management
of animal waste from the 2528, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an
annual average of 3250 Feeder to Finish, 1000 Farrow to Feeder swine and the application to land as
specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to
Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced
by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 1, 2007. Pursuant to this COC, you are
authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and
Federal general permit it contains many new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary- Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
Iaws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must subrnit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 211.0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon or any wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C, the Clean Water Act and 40 CFR 122.41 including civil penalties, criminal
penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual NPDES Permit by contacting the staff member Iisted below for information on
this process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.

1. We have received your application for Renewal of Existing Certificate of Coverage for State Non -
Discharge Permit and a copy of the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP). Thus facility is ced pied as an
1886 head farrow to feeder operation, however your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) is written for a
1000 head operation consisting of 500 farrow to feeder and 500 farrow to finish.
The number of animals and type of operation documented in the WUP must agree with that
certified for the facility. If it is your intent to request to be permitted for 1886 head farrow to
feeder, please submit a WUP for 1886 head. Note that you can operate at less than the permitted
capacity, but can not exceed that number.
If you are requesting to be permitted for 500 farrow to feeder and 500 farrow to finish please
submit a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan for 500 farrow to feeder and 500 farrow to
finish for review. Review and approval of the Waste Management Plan is necessary before the
number of animals for which the facility is certified can be increased.
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical
specialist- Please reference the subject permit application number when'providing the requested information.
All information should be signed, sealed, and submitted to my attention at the address below. The information

The Murphy Brown LLC, Kenansville Division is responding to the NOV for the high freeboard
reported to your office on 3/21 /03.
Information requested:
1.) Current Freeboard - 31 inches on 4128103 report
2.) 12 month freeboard levels — see attachment
J.� IL lllolill lJ llllgdlllll l l eWl U.7—see OLLOW IIIICIIL
4.) 12 months rainfall records — see attachment
5.) CAWMP — see attachment
6.) Summary of actions taken to bring the freeboard back to compliance levels:
a.) Activated the Emergency Operating Procedure for Water Usage when the lagoon
level dropped below 24 inches.
b.) No restocking occurred when the lagoon freeboard level dropped to less than 19
inches.
c.) Used the nutrient management program as it was designed to contain waste water in
the lagoon until the LNM could safely apply to sprayfields as outlined in the CAWMP.
The system protected waters of the state, the environment, and allowed us to utilize
the nutrients in a cropping program at an appropriate time.
d.) When lagoon levels reached 21 inches, the lagoons were monitored daily by
production and LNM (production monitors daily and LNM weekly under normal
operations per the EMS program).
7.) Description of water conservation measures in use> - Water meter records use. Readings are
taken weekly and reported. Weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly reports are used to track water
usage against established goals for a specific farm type. The division set in motion a plan to install
water conservation measures for each farm that did not have water conservation devices in place in
September 02. The farms were ranked and scheduled for installation. Farm 2528 had water dams,
pressure regulators and timers installed. The work was completed 418/03. Pressure regulators and
swinging waterers were installed in the finishing buildings. The work was completed on 12/6/02.

On March 21, 2003, a representative of your animal operation informed the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) that there was inadequate freeboard in the lagoon(s) serving this facility.
This lack of adequate freeboard is in non-compliance with the Certificate of Coverage
issued to this facility on July 28, 1997. In addition to this Notice of Violation (NOV), this non-
compliance is subject to an appropriate enforcement action by DWQ. This action can consist of
one or more of the following: a civil or criminal enforcement action; an injunction; and/or a
requirement to apply for coverage under an individual permit. The action chosen will be based
on complete evaluation of all factors that resulted in the inadequate freeboard; the actions taken
to restore the needed freeboard; and the actions being proposed to prevent the problem from
reoccurring.
To assist us in our review, please provide the Fayetteville Regional Office with an
evaluation of the reasons for the freeboard violation(s) and a strategy to prevent future freeboard
violation(s). This evaluation and strategy must include but is not limited to the following:
Current Freeboard level(s)
Freeboard level records in the lagoon(s) for the past 12 months up to the date of submittal
Spraying records for the past 12 months up to the date of submittal

LLC Environmental Management Systems goal of continual improvement will drive the goal
for compliance.
The Murphy Brown LLC, Kenansville Division has submitted the information requested with
this letter. I respectfully request to be involved with the review process of this NOV and answer any
questions that you may have..
There should be further consideration of information that goes back to last year since the
recently requested information covers that period of time. There was a request for a variance to go
below the stop pump marl[ in order to agronomically apply to crops stressed due to the drought.
This request was made to the Division of Water Quality in mid summer but the industry did not
receive confirmation until late fall when it was too late.
The frequency of rainfall during the winter impacted the ability to land apply nutrients in an
environmentally safe manner as much as the actual rainfall amount itself.
The waste management system function as designed thru an extended abnormal weather
pattern. The system was effectively managed and served to protect the environment. We have
worked with the Division of Water Quality in our mutual goal of protecting our environment. I
request that the NOV be rescinded after a review of the submitted information.
Please call me when you are ready to review the information or if you require additional
information. Thank You.
Sincerely,

;. Should the DWQ have good reason to believe that any activities conducted pursuant to
this p_rrnh may cause or contribute any waste, directly or indirectly, to be intermixed
with the waters of the State, the DWQ may require any monitoring (including but not
limited to sroundwater, sdr-face water, animal waste, sludge, soil and plant tissue)
necessary to determine the source, Quantity, quality, and effect of such waste upon tht
waters of the State. Such monitoring, including its scope, frequency, duration al -id any
sampling, testing, and reporting systems, shall meet all applicable Environmental
].Management Commission requirements. "Good Reason" may it based on the Findings of
a related Federal, State, Commission or DENR authorized study or report, or other
evidence showing that violations of State water quality standards or. other applicable
environmental standards have occurred or may occur.

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. Onlv
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'Scott Faircloth on 2/16/99 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 (910) 486-1541. 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.

Dear Mr. Hobson:
On March 21, 2000, you or staff from your farm notified the Fayetteville Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality, as required by General Permit condition 111.6.e, that the freeboard
level of the lagoon was less than the minimum required by the General Permit. The liquid level of
the lagoon was reported as 17 inches. General Permit condition U states that `The maximum
waste level in lagoordstoiage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the CAWMP. At a minimum,
maximum waste level for laaoonsi'storaae Donds must not exceed the level that provides adequate
storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event plus an additional t foot of structural freeboard.'.
The Division of Water Quality will take no further action for this reported incident at this
time. However, you are asked to please complete the enclosed Plan of Action forms and submit
to this office within 48 hours of receipt. In addition, after the lagoon level has been brought into
compliance you are requested to notify this office by telephone or fax immediately and submit in
writing a notice of compliance with your General Permit. This information is essential in determining
I the lagoon was lowered within the specified time frame in which the Plan of Action (f OA) allotted.
It will also dose this event out within your file. If you have any questions concerning this matter,
please do not hesitate to contact me at (910) 486-1541.

Farm 2123
1. Through continual efforts grass has been established on all slopes.
2. Upon review of the irrigation plan for Field #10, it was found that additional land had
been added to that field but the correction was not made on the IRR-2 Form. The
nitrogen balance was being calculated on two acres when in fact there are five acres in
Field # 10. Therefore even though the IRR-2 showed over application the crop was
not over applied on. t"lallS an- a maps 112ivG uGTril %OiTcctcu.
3. We make every effort to adhere to all General Permit conditions.
4. Good crop husbandry practices are our goal and will be followed.
Farm 2187
1. In order to improve the control of the height of vegetation on the lagoon slopes we
have instituted a more frequent mowing program. This along with judicious use of
herbicides should correct this situation.
2. The WUP was revised 7/30/99 to address the over application during the 1998-1999
overseed utider the grazing scenario. This revision dictates that no grazing will be
allowed during the 1999-2000 overseed period.
3_ It 15 our intent to cVlIlpry wrlil `lhe <iGllGla, PcITiiit cv:+uitivaio.
4. See item 2 above.
Farm 2101, 2102 and 2105
1. A new program with emphasis on more frequent mowing and more intensive use of
herbicides to control vegetative growth has been implemented.
2. Since this incident of over application, complex managers are given a nitrogen
balance summary by pull on a weekly basis rather than monthly. This summary is
reviewed by the complex manager and his supervisor to prevent an inadvertent over
application.
3. It is our intent to comply with all General Permit conditions.
4. Based on tests conducted over the last two years, there is hope that sludge reduction
will be possible using additives. If a successful program is not identified by the
Spring of 2000, then mechanical removal of the sludge will be undertaken.
5. The marker was temporarily obscured by floating solids. A backhoe was brought in
to remove the solids from the surface of the lagoon. This situation should not occur
again.
Farm 737R
1. A new program with emphasis on more frequent mowing and more intensive use
of herbicides to control vegetative growth has been implemented.
2.&3. It is our intent to comply with the General Permit and WiJP for this farm. The
over application occurred as a result of trying to lower high lagoon levels following
heavy rains in the Winter of 1998-1999. The fields in question were the ones
which could be applied on (due to soil type and topography) without run off.
Given the circumstances the best option was chosen. Later in the growing season
when all residual nitrogen was depleted the crops were in a nitrogen deficient
condition. In order to get forage production, additional nitrogen was applied.
4. The crop code for Field #1 indicated bermuda grass was a typographical error as
noted in the r-f%t"rn,-"tei. Th:s 16nee been rnrrPrtPd

permit for the subject animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H
.0217, you have been found to be in violation of your 2H .0217 Permit.
On August 10, 1999, the Division of Water Quality at the Fayetteville
Regional Office conducted a routine inspection of Carroll's Farm 92328 located
in Sampson County. It was observed that a portion of the inside slopes (adjacent
to the buildings) along with the back slopes were not being maintained. A review
of the irrigation records indicated that the Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) rates
had been exceeded above that which was specified in the Certified Animal Waste
Management Plan (CAWMP). The coastal bennuda in Fields 412 and #15 had
been over applied on by 113 and .15 pounds of PAN accordingly in 1998. The
General Permit in condition 1II.61 states that "The Permittee shall report by
telephone to the appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case
more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of any of the
following events: (f) Overapplying animal waste either in excess of the limits set
out in the CAWMP or where runoff enters surface waters.". The General Permit
also states in condition HA states that "Land application rates shall be in
accordance with the CAWIVIP. 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.". It was also noted that millet was planted in Field #1, however
the CAWMP specifies coastal bermuda as the crop for this field.

PAN rates as specified for each crop.
3. Adhere to all of the General Permit conditions.
4. Contact a technical specialist for assistance in order to revise the CAWMP to reflect the crops
to be grown along with the specified PAN rates for each crop.
Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in the facility's General Permit being
revoked and being required to obtain an individual non -discharge permit for the facility.
Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking
enforcement actions for this violation or any past or future violation. Furthermore, the Division of
Water Quality has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per day per
violation.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
----------------------
Owners name--:CARROLLS 1 2328 County:SAMPSON
Mail Address-:WARSAW
.L y - of pr oduct i on iini 4---_ . r ruc-r r.r.ji
Number of animal units-----: 1886
Type of waste facility ------:Anaerobic Lagoon
Temporary storage period---: 90 days
Method of application ------ :IRRIGATION
Amount of animal waste produced-----------------: 13856 tons/year
Amount of plant available N produced by animals-: 12259 lbs./year
Commercial N to apply on planned acreage--------: 0 lbs./year
Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically
developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the
soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for
your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan
uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
of mifriPnt-_ fnr nrnn nrnrinctinn AnA to rpdiina the nntPntinl
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

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

waste enter ing'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

2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level

WASTE IITIIMATTON PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIRCATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach srizace waters of the state by runoff; drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land appy—tion. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is
prohibited_
Z. There moist be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized agreement for use of
adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of
waste, he/she shall provide a copy, of a notarized agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity.
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure
an update of the Waste Ut iliz man 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 moist=, historical data. climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the i.
discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding Iess chin 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is
eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acne per year providing grass filter strips are installed where
runoff leaves the field. (St-- FOTG Standard 393-Fill ter Strips)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there
is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be 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 diming 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 of1site 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.
9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to
depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted craps 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 or forages breaking
dormancy..

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing, or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for
all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take.
I. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. L.a=oon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dawn.
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 surface water is entering lagoon.
B : Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
a. Inunediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C: Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eliminate further dischars►.e.
d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D: Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump_
c. Make sure no siphon occurs.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
December 18, 1996
e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
E: Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to
flowing leaks- possible action:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch away from the embanlanent to catch all seepage,
put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b. if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon
bottom as soon as possible.
1. Assess U extent or the spun gnu nvLe any aovious uamaaes.
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off of the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3: Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality)
regional office; Phone - After hours, emergency number. 919-733-3942.
Your phone call should include: your name, facility, 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 situation.
b. If spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS Phone number -
c. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department-
d_ Contact CES, phone number - - , local SWCD office phone number
and local NRCS office for advice/technicaI assistance phone number - -
4: If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your
problem to them and ask that person to contact the proper agencies for you.
5: Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair of problem to minimize off -site
damage. I
