Re: Notice of Violation/Notice of Intent
Animal Facility Annual Certification Form
Rocky Ridge Farm
NPDES Permit No. NCA277001
Richmond County
Dear Mr. Williams:
You are hereby notified that, having been permitted to have an animal waste management system
NPDES permit pursuant to NCGS 143-215.1 and Section 402 of the Clean Water Act, you have
been found to be in violation of your permit.
The General NPDES Permit, Condition 11I.12 states:
"An annual certification report shall be filed with the Division's Central Office and
appropriate Regional Office by March 1 of each year for the previous year's activities on
forms provided by the Division. If the facility was not in compliance, the annual
certification must be used to summarize all noncompliance during the previous year,
actions taken or actions proposed to be taken to resolve noncompliance and explain the
current compliance status of the facility."
As of today, DWQ has still not received the Annual Certification Form for this farm.
Required Corrective Action:
Please respond to this request by filling out the attached Annual Certification Form for the year
2004 as required by your NPDES permit. To avoid possible enforcement action for a violation
of your permit, return by July 6, 2005 to the following address:

APR 2 3 200 I
r
On March 6, 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 September 3, 1998. 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 Iagoon(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

Once this information is received and evaluated by the DWQ staff, a determination will
be made as to the appropriate compliance/enforcement actions to be taken. Each case will be
evaluated on its own merit. The efforts by the owner/producer to notify DWQ of the problem,
efforts made to resolve the problem once identified, and efforts proposed to prevent future
problems will be positive factors in this determination.
Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you either the responsibility or
liability for this non-compliance or future cases of non-compliance. If you have any questions
regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact our Fayetteville Regional Office Staff at

Dear John S. Williams:
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Jeffery Brown on 5/1 1 /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 Bob Heath the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Bob Heath, 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 Bob Heath at [phone]. If within 90 days you are unable
to provide Bob Heath 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.

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

Re: Reply to the DWQ issued Wettable Acre Determination letter sent to Rocky Ridge Farm on 2-5-01. The farm

Dear Mr. Heath
Mr. Johnny Williams has asked me to look into the above referenced matter to see if I can answer the information
request I believe you already have a copy of this letter in your files. Basically, this DWQ letter is requesting
additional wettable acre information be sent to you per an on -site inspection made by Mr. Jeffery Brown. From
your last message to my office it would seem that you are also a little unclear as to what is being requested. In
order for me to best help Mr. Williams I need to know exactly what DWQ needs. Based on, my communications
with you, Bert Coffer (Cooperative Extension Service), and Mr. Williams, I 'think" DWQ needs the following:
A to -scale map showing the irrigated field boundaries and the imgation pull lanes as an overlay.
2. A wettable acres verification by a technical specialist.
For your information I did not perform the original irrigation design or the wettable acres determination for Rocky
Ridge Farm. However, I did perform an as -built inspection on the irrigation system to verify it was installed as the
installer claimed. Thus I am somewhat familiar with the irrigation layout
We would appreciate you spelling out just what your agency needs so we can get a reply underway. Please call
my oft if you have any questions.

Dear Mr. Williams:
On January 31, 2000, you or staff from your farm notified the Fayetteville Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality, as required by General Permit condition II1.6.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 18 inches. General Permit condition V.3 states that "The maximum
waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the CAWMP. At a
minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not exceed the level that provides
adequate storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event plus as additional 1 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 notify this office in writing within 15 days of receipt of this
letter as to what date the lagoon was lowered to the required freeboard level. This information is
essential in determining if the lagoon was lowered within the specified time frame in which the Plan
of Action (POA) allotted. It will also close this event out within your file. If you have any questions
concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact myself at [phone].

Facility No. 77 - 1
Richmond County
Dear Mr. Williams:
On May 11, 1999, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division
of Water Quality inspected the Rocky Ridge Farm swine facility. It was observed
that the lagoon dikes were not properly being maintained and portions of the
inside slopes had been eroded away as a result of the discharge pipes from the
animal buildings to the lagoon. The lower lagoon did not contain an adequate
gauged marker and freeboard records were not being recorded as required by the
General Permit that was issued to this facility on September 3, 1998. General
Permit condition III.2 states that "If not already installed at this facility, a waste -
level gauge to monitor waste levels shall be installed within 60 days of issuance
of the COC under this general permit. This gauge shall have readily visible
permanent markings indicating the maximum liquid level at the top of temporary
liquid storage volume, minimum liquid level at the bottom of the temporary liquid
storage volume, top of dam elevations. Waste lagoon and storage pond levels
shall be recorded weekly on forms supplied or approved by the DWQ".
It was noted from the inspection that matua grass had been planted in one of
the spray fields. However, according to the Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) fescue was the specified crop for this field. General Permit
condition 1111.4 states that "An analysis of the animal waste shall be conducted as
close to the time of application as practical and at least within 60 days (before or
after) of the date of application.". Irrigation records indicated that some pumping
events were not covered by a waste analysis as specified above. -

In regard to the deficiencies noted during the inspection, the following actions are requested:
1. Maintain the inside and back slopes of the lagoon dikes so that they can be inspected for evidence
of erosion, seepage, and damage by animals on a routine basis.
2. Extend discharge pipes out away from the inside slopes of the lagoon to prevent erosion.
3. Consult with a technical specialist to modify or replace the current lagoon marker in order to
accurately reflect the maximum and minimum (if necessary) liquid level elevations based on the
lagoon design.
4. Immediately begin to record freeboard levels weekly in order to be in compliance with the
General Permit.
5. Contact a technical specialist in order to revise the CAWMP to reflect the current crops along
with the specified Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) rates for each crop.
6. Take a waste sample as close to the date of application as practical but at least 60 days before or
after application.
Please provide a written response to this office on or before June 25, 1999 regarding corrective
actions taken or planned. Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving this facility of the
responsibility and liability of any violations that have or may result from these deficiencies. If you

77 -/
Rocky Ridge Waste Utilization Plan
Rocky Ridge swine farm produces 17,159 lbs PAN/year.
This figure is based on 41902,500 gallons of waste produced by
5300 head of finishing hogs and a sampled waste analysis of 3.5
lbs PAN/1000 gallons of effluent. Included are waste analysis
reports (7/05-2/07) for the 3rd stage waste storage pond from which
waste will be pumped. The average of these reports is 3.5 lbs
PAN/1,000 gallons. The Nitrogen content of the storage pond is
lower than the state average because the first two stages are
anaerobic lagoons in which some nutrient breakdown is occurring.
In an effort to remove sludge build up in the first two stages,
the operator will periodically agitate the lagoons and remove the
slurry for land application off the farm. A waste sample will be
taken of this slurry to determine the correct agronomic application
rate.
Included in this plan is a listing of each field, crop, and
application method. The operator will be using a combination of
traveler irrigation and liquid spreader to apply the waste.
Eventually, the Millet/Rye fields will be converted to Hybrid
Bermuda and the WUP changed accordingly.

Plan Amendment
This waste management plan was amended on March 9, 2007 to update the
amount of pigs on the farm from 5306 head to 5300 head. This brings the
waste down to 4,902,500 gallons of waste per year. The lbs. of N/1,000 gal
were updated to 3.5 to reflect the current numbers from the most recent
waste analysis. This number was averaged over a three year time period
using the Nitrogen available from the liquid slurry as well as the irrigated
liquid.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Applications of waste can be made to the Bermudagrass as early as 30
days prior to green up until growth and nitrogen uptake slows. For
our area this will provide a window from about March 15th (or 1 week
after the last 32 degree temp.) until August 15th. Annual soil tests
should be made to ensure that the proper lime and K (potash) levels
are maintained to achieve maximum growth and N uptake.
When harvesting Bermudagrass as hay, make the first cutting when the
plants are 12-15 inches tall and every 4-6 weeks afteraards. Apply N
when spring growth begins and then after each cutting.
According to the recently passed senate bill 1217, the maximum rate
of nitrogen that can be applied to a winter annual overseeded into
bermuda is 50 lbs N/acre. The best way to apply this is in split
applications with half the N in the fall around September or October
at planting and the other half in late February as early spring
growth begins.
Soil test should be taken and are now required by law, to monitor pH,
phosphorus, and potassium levels to ensure good crop growth. Zn and
Cu levels must also be monitored and technical assistance -sought when

The waste product contains a large amount of zinc. As a result, care should be taken to avoid excess accumulation of zinc in
the soilA a the waste is applied. Apply the waste at rates needed to meet crop nitrogen
requirement unless zinc is
restrictive. Excess zinc can permanently damage soil productivity. Some crops are more sensitive io excess zinc than others. Peanuts is one of the most sensitive crops to this element. Low
soil PH enhances zinc toxicity.

The purpose of a manure nutrient utilization plan is to estimate the acres of cropland needed to use the
manure nutrients you produce without exceeding your design storage capacity. The plan is based on
average manure generation values and average nutrient content for your type of facility. The plan
requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops you will grow, their nutrient requirements, and
proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This manure nutrient utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting (priority) nutrient. The plan -is based
on typical manure production rates and average nutrient contents for this type of facility. Your actual
production and nutrient values may vary, by 20% or more.. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
use. Implementation of the plan based on actual analysis may require additional acres or reduction in
stocking rates to ensure that nutrients are not applied in excess of agronomic rates. '
This plan consists of
• Description of your production facility and waste handling method
• Estimate of manure produced on your farm
• Fields and Crops which will receive manure nutrients
=:, CF'S Maps by tract and field
=> Soils Maps
=> Perennial Streams and Buffers
• Estimate of acres required to use manure nutrients at agronomic rated
• Irrigation Plan
• Standards and specifications which must be followed
The following records must be maintained for five years:
• Manure nutrients (should be analyzed within 60 days of each application).
• Soil test reports, sampled at least every two years
Manure application records
If implemented according to these specifications, this manure nutrients management plan meets the
requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management
Commission.

This waste irrigation design for Johnny William's Swine Farm
utilizes his current above ground portable irrigation equipment,
which consist of (1) John Deere 4039D Power Unit (71 HP) with a
Rainbow CSB64S13 Pump, (2) an Amadas 1030 Gas Mechanical
Traveler, (3) 1500' of 5" Western Coupled aluminum pipe, and (4)
2100' of 4" Western Coupled aluminum pipe. Agronomic, waste
analysis, and hydraulic guideline information was submitted by
Mr. Bert Coffer of the Richmond County North Carolina Cooperative
Extension Service. The specific guidelines and limits to the
operation of Mr. William's equipment is based on allowing
absolutely no wastewater to enter ground waters or surface waters
and to apply the wastewater at a time and in a manner as to allow
the growing crop to use the water and its nutrients (PAN).
Buffer areas are indicated on the drawing in which there will be
no wastewater spray applied. These buffers are 75' wide at
surface waters and perennial streams and 1001 wide surrounding
well locations. There is one nonowned residence near the spray
areas but it is beyond the 200' buffer area required.
There are some areas in the spray fields that have more than
10% slope and therefore have a lower designed application rate of
wastewater. Mr. Williams has applied wastewater with his current
equipment. on all the sprayfield areas that are included in this
plan without having any runoff of the wastewater. The travel
speed of the gun cart can be adjusted to meet the application
rates for individual fields and travel .lanes. Computations for
the lane spacings, pressure requirements, flows, precipation
rates, application rates, and travel speeds are shown on
accompanying material.
Since this equipment is portable, the operator will be
extremely observant as to the correct positioning and locating of
the traveling unit and gun cart so as to avoid any possibility of
'discharge.or runoff to surface waters. The operator will adhere
to the guidelines listed in the Certification Training Manual for
Operators of Animal Waste Management Systems published by the
North' Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. This irrigation
design is to be used as part of the overall. Waste Utilization
Plan for this farm. Crop areas not included in the sprayfields
wi11 receive wastewater from a honeywagon in order to provide Mr.
Williams with enough acreage to utilize the wastewater properly.

A. To -compute the Imug1h Qf cMgtjyr, irrigated area:
1. Length of run 'from whe're's*prinkler cart starts to where it stops, plus
2. 0.6 of radius of the sprinkler behind the sprinkler cart at start, plus
3. 0.6 of radius. ofthe'sprinkler in front of sprinkler cart at stop.
with radius of 160 feet and arc angle of 300'
Length of travel of sprinkler cart = 900 feet
Radius of sprinklers- behind sprinkler cart at start 160 feet,
Radius of sprinkler in front o , f sprinkler. cart at stop 137 feet
Length of effective irrigated area = 900 feet + 0.6(160 feet) +.0.6(137 feet)
1078 feet
B. To compute the width of the effective irrigated ar
ea:
1. An;outside travel lane'..
a.,Take.0.8 of the radius of the sprinkler to'the si,& f.the .sp�rinkler, cart, plus
b. On6'fialf'(0.5) of the lane spacing
2.: Ifthere, is only one travel lane through a field the:effictivd irrigated area is-'
0.8 of the radius of the sprinkler to either side of the sprinkler cart.
Example 0-utsidc-lane for-rnultipcl,-tnefiel(l. Radius of sprinkler = 160 feet
Lane spacing = 220 feet
r.
Effective width of irrigated area =0.8(160'feet) + 0-5(220 feet)`'—'-- 23g'feCt..
Example:Single travel -han-c-fteld
Radius of sprinkler - 160 feet
Effective width of irrigated area = 0.8(160 feet) + 0.8 (160 feet) = 256 fee
3. Middle travel lane
The effective width is the hydrant spacing or travel lane spacing.

In Traveler Irrigatic.l'
The Pro -Line Series is fast becoming the most popular Reel Rain
Traveler. There are three models available capable of applying 1"
of water on from 50 to 85 acres per week. Each is simple to operate
with one valve controling the amount of water applied. Standard
features such as P.T.O. Rewind, Reel Speed Compensator, and
Turntable only add to the ease of accurately operating Pro -Line
Reel Rain Travelers.

BMPs to Control Insects Site Specific Practices
Feed storage • Accumulations of feed
Reduce moisture accumulation within and around
residues
immediate perimeter of feed storage areas by
ensuring drainage is away from site and/or providing
adequate containment (e.g., covered bin for
brewer's grain and similar high moisture grain
products)
❑
Inspect for and remove or break up accumulated
solids in filter strips around feed storage as needed
Animal holding areas Accumulations of animal ❑
Eliminate low areas that trap moisture along fences
wastes and feed wastage
and other locations where waste accumulates and
disturbance by animals is minimal
❑
Maintain fence rows and filter strips around animal
holding areas to minimize accumulations of wastes
(i.e., inspect for and remove or break up
accumulated solids as needed)
Dry manure handling Accumulations of animal ❑
Remove spillage on a routine basis (e.g.,
systems wastes
7- to I0-day interval during summer; IS to 30-day
interval during winter) where manure is loaded for
land application or disposal
❑
Provide for adequate drainage around manure
stockpiles
❑
Inspect for and remove or break up accumulated
wastes in filter strips around stockpiles and manure
handling areas as needed

Mortality Management Methods
(check which method(s) are being implemented)
❑ Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after
knowledge of the death.• The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing
stream or public body of water.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-16$.7
❑ Complete incineration i
❑ In the cure of dead poultry only, placing in it disposal pit of a size and design
approved by the Department of Agriculture
❑ Any method which in the professional opinion of the State Veterinarian would
make possible the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering
human or animal health. (Written approval of the State Veterinarian must be
attached)

I (we) verify that all the above information is correct aad will be updated upon changing. I (we) understand thtr operation
and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste mana_emem plan for the farm named above and •.vill
implement these procedures. I (we) Know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the. waste treatment and
storage system or construction of new facilities will require a new ceniiicadon to be submitted to the Division of
Environmental Nlanaaement bciore the new animals are stocked. I (we) understand that there must be ono discharge of
animal waste from the storage or application system to surface waters of the state either directly through a man-made
conveyance or from a storm event less severe than the ?S-year. 24-hour storm and there must not be run-off from the
application of animal waste. r (we) understand that run-off of pollutants from lounging and heavy use areas must be
minimized using technical standards developed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service. The approved plan will be
tiled at the farm and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District. I (we) know that any modification
must be approved by a technical specialist and submitted to the Soil and Water Conservation District prior to
implementation: A change in land ownership requires written notificadon to DEN•I or a new certification (if the approved
plan is changed) within 60 days of a title transfer.

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE 11.
DESIGN PARAMETERS AND DETAILS
Notes About This Project:
When possible, the design and construction of the Rocky Ridge Farm waste storage pond
follows the U.S. Natural Resources Conversation Service (MRCS) design criteria and is
not meant to contradict standard NRCS guidelines or the design criteria ,of other
organizations. Some information used in design was obtained courtesy of the N.C.
Cooperative Extension Service.
Environmental Engineering Services (EES) often provides design information in PHASES.
EES packages may contain one 'or two or three major parts or PHASES, each a stand
alone document with a specific purpose. The PHASES will be called PHASE I, PHASE
II, and PHASE III. ,An explanation of the different PHASES appears below.
PHASE I plans contain details on the proposed construction before earth moving takes
place. The PHASE I portion suggests design parameters, construction guidelines, try's to
predict sizes and volumes of lagoon(s), suggests sediment and erosion control measures,
and generally identifies the lagoon or pond site and size. The PHASE I information may or
may not appear with the word "draft" in the text, but should always be viewed as a pre -
construction document. PHASE I information is subject to change depending on the
discovered physical conditions once construction begins. PHASE I plans will only relate
to new facilities or new construction on older facilities.
PHASE 11 contains as -built information on the lagoon (or waste storage pond) structure;
darn construction, and general as -built characteristics. UsuaIIy this PHASE is prepared
afler all construction is complete and volumes and/or sizes can be measured.
PHASE III ,contains information related to animal waste utilization., This PHASE will
contain soils information, cropping suggestions, and (possibly) irrigation suggestions or
descriptions. Many times this information is provided by the local NRCS or others and
may not be provided by the project engineer. Information provided by others will not be
labeled as a PHASE but may be included as an Exhibit at the end of the package. If
provided by others such information will help the reader understand the project more
thoroughly.
All specifications within this document or other PHASES provided by EES are acceptable
for use to satisfy the animal waste management rules found in the publication titled
NCDEHNR, Division of water Quality, Title 15A:02H, Section .0200. The reader may
refer to this State publication for regulatory details.
All design specifications and certifications in this PHASE I1 document will be related back
to the original specifications developed for this farm. These specifications are in
accordance with NRCS design criteria at that time. Modifications which have been made
to NRCS design guidelines since the original design are not applicable to lagoon systems
designed prior to those modifications, This document is comparable to the typical NRCS
documentation for the same purpose. Its detail should match or exceed similar detail
typically provided by NRCS engineers and/or field personnel.

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE li
Intr(Auctien
Rocky Ridge Farm is an existing farm in the north central part of RichmondCountyN. C.
The farm is located in an agricultural/rural setting and is situated near the town of Ellerbe.
The owner is Johnny Williams.
This existing farm is not expanding or adding to existing animal Steady State Live Weight
(SSLW). This is a finishing operation with a 5,300 head capacity. The owner now uses a
flush recycle system to remove waste from the: buildings. Swine effluent is stored and
treated in a lagoon system and is recycled into the houses to recharge the flush tanks. On
occasion lagoon effluent is pumped from the lagoon system and carefully land applied via
a spray irrigation system (or on occasion by broadcast) on to growing crops. The effluent
applied to farm grown crops will act as a commercial fertilizer substitute and will be
applied according to conservative agronomic rates. A PHASE I design document was
submitted for this farm by Environmental Engineering Services (EES) on July 15, 1997.
Mr.' Williams wishes to increase the excess waste storage capacity at his farm. His plans
were -to convert a small lagoon (i.e. lagoon #3) into a larger structure for liquid storage
only. The new waste storage pond was not designed as a Iagoon but only to increase
liquid storage capacity to improve his waste utilization flexibility. Construction on the
new waste storage pond is now more or less complete.
This PHASE II report contains as -built information on the waste storage pond structure,
dam construction, and general as built characteristics. Usually this document is prepared
after all construction is complete and volumes and or sizes can be measured. The engineer
has tried to weigh all factors in accordance with importance while construction was taking
place on this lagoon to keep the final construction as close to the original plans as
practical. This document reflects the construction on the pond on or before the date on
the front cover. Throughout this document there will be information and suggestions
providing helpful hints on odor control and general long term lagoon maintenance.
Additional recommendations for odor and insect control may be supplied by those doing
the waste utilization plans.
General Site Information And Lagoon Location
The physical location of the farm is in the north central part of Richmond County.
Entrance to the farm is off SR# 1310. Exhibits 1 and 2 show various views of the
property.
In general the farm property is bordered by mostly wooded land or farm land with some
residential dwellings scattered around the immediate community. The new pond was built
in an open field. More will be said about regulatory setbacks later in this document.
There are no historical sites noted within 1 mile of this farm.
Page 3

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE II '
Topography And Drainage
In general, the topography at and -around the Rocky Ridge Farm Site consists of
moderately rolling hills with all of the drainage from the construction site eventually going
to an unnamed creek and then to Little Mountain Creek. A USGS topo map of the area
can be seen as Exhibit 2 so the reviewer can get an overall view of the site. The USGS
.topographic map containing this information is the ElIerbe Quadrangle map (updated
1982), Coordinates for this site are approximately Longitude 79 degrees, 47 minutes, 20
seconds; Latitude 35 degrees, 5 minutes, 25 seconds.
The slopes near .the pond construction site before construction range from 5 to 15 percent.
In general rainfall run-off goes away from or around the confinement housing and the
pond area via grass water ways and ditches, Any water that might initially flow toward
the pond is intercepted so this water is diverted around the outside of the pond.
The lagoon's earthen sides should not be impacted by 100 year flooding.
The discharge of swine effluent to the surface water of N.C. is prohibited. Therefore no
effluent is expected to make its way into the nearby streams and rivers unless by accident.
A sudden dam breach causing a significant release of effluent is very unlikely. In this
event, the effluent would be very dilute prior to it reaching any public water supply intake,
While the effects of any such occurrence is serious, the engineer believes any major threat
to a drinking water supply is minimal and would not have dramatic and prolonged effects
on the availability of any drinking water supply. It would however result in damage to
some aquatic life and produce a limited fish kill.
No wet land vegetation was observed in the area disturbed for construction. See PHASE
I plans for the site investigation findings.
Groundwater And Surface Waters
A small amount of perched water was found while excavating the bottom of the pond. No
significant groundwater was found flowing into the structure. All surface water has been
d`.ver.ed around and away from the lagoon -interior.
Sediment And Erosion Control
A sediment basin surrounded by hay bales was installed downslope from the construction
site in order to trap sediment before leaving the property site. Grass is scheduled to be
planted on the disturbed soil areas. Sediment has been controlled can the site during
construction. Grass was not planted as of the engineers last site visit but was scheduled to
occur before October 15. The sediment basin and hay bales will be left in place until the
site is completely stabilized.
New Facility Set -Backs Or Buffers
According to the .0200 regulations, General Statue 106 (Senate Bill 1080), and Senate
Bill 1217 all new swine facilities (not irrigation) shall be located a minimum distance from

occupied neighboring structures, These set -backs (as .of the PHASE I plans time frame)
are as follows:
TABLE t
Residences (farms sited before 10-1-95)................................................. 750 Feet
Residences (farms sited after 10-1795)................................................. 1,500 Feet
Churches, Hospitals, or Schools (farms sited after 10-1-95)................. 2,500 Feet

Property Lines (farms sited after 10-1-96) ..................... 500 Feet
Bl1je Line Streams (USGS Quad. Maps) ............................................... 100 Feet
The waste storage pond built at Rocky Ridge Farm is not for SSLW expansion therefore it
does not need to meet new facility set back criteria. It does however meet the set back
criteria appropriate for its age and circumstances.
Swine facilities would include the confinement houses, feed bins, lagoon, lagoon dam, etc.
Access roads, storm water control devices (i.e. grass water ways), irrigation fields, piping,
etc, are not part of the facilities under the above set -back limitations according to the
engineer's understanding. However the grower should refer to legal counsel and/or
regulatory agencies to confirm these opinions since there is much regulatory confusion
about such matters.
There are no known utilities above or below grade within the proposed construction site.
The lagoon and facilities are more than 100 feet from the property boundary.
No future building or improvements are planned down slope from the lagoon system.
Miscellaneous Details
As mentioned above, the farm under study has been in operation for years and is in a very
lightly populated rural setting. Only one off -site structure is visible from the new pond site
and this house belongs to a relative.
There are no dwellings, structures, roads, or bridges between the new pond site and the
nearest creek or branch.
Stormwater drainage from the farm does flow through culverts under SR # 1310.
Prevailing winds are typically from the southwest and blow toward the northeast. There
are no dwellings immediately northeast of the lagoons and houses.
No unusual archeological features were found at this site during construction, No
threatened or endangered species habitat were identified before or during construction.
No subsurface drains of any type were found before or during construction.

Summary Of The Existing Lagoon System
Primary Type Of Treatment
Lagoon design documents and research reports often give numbers related to the design
process. These numbers vary depending on which publication is reviewed. One fact
remains constant throughout literature; Farm Management Has As Much To Do With
Odor Minimization As Does Proper Lagoon Design! However teaching
comprehensive farm management (including comprehensive waste management) is beyond
the scope of this document. The engineer has used design data accepted and used by the
N.C. Cooperative Extension Service at NCSU for basic design ' parameters; as well as
design data accepted and used by the NRCS during this time frame.

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE I1 ,
Lagoons I and 2 at Rocky Ridge Farm. are not scheduled for enlargement. Recent
effluent test data suggests that adequate anaerobic treatment is occurring in these lagoons.
However the farmer can not continue to rely on past performance unless sludge is
removed regularly. The engineer can only look at the recent test data and conclude that
the existing lagoon system is adequately functioning at nitrogen reduction. These
structures do not comply with the newest MRCS guidelines for such. No evaluation was
made on dam construction or suitability at either of these lagoons. Existing dam
evaluations is beyond the scope of a PHASE I work effort. Construction guidelines herein
only relate to the new waste storage pond.
Waste Holding Pond Design
Pond Shape
The waste storage pond was originally designed to have a more or less triangular surface
with a flat bottom. Overall the final lagoon closely resembles the initial design (See
Exhibit 5A For As -Built Topographic Details)..
Volume Calculations. (See PHASE I for reference)
As -Built pond volumes calculated for .Rocky Ridge Farm used on -site topographic
measurements which compares the empty and full pond. Maximum or full volume would
be full to the overflow level. Maximum full should always be avoided. The computer
technique used for these comparisons is called L.I. Contour V+, Version 5.1, developed
by A.B. Consulting Co'. Inc., Lincoln NE. Great care was used in developing the contour
maps for comparisons, however any such measurements and calculations have some
margin for error. The engineer has verified the L.I. Contour V+ program with known
field data and believes it to be a very accurate approximation technique for pond volumes.
Standard volume calculations for trapezoidal structures were likewise consulted and used
for verifications. See Exhibit 3 for a lagoon volume vs depth graph.
Sludge Holding Capacity
Typically, waste storage ponds do not accumulate appreciable amounts of sludge since
they are down stream from lagoon structures. Since solids tend to accumulate in upper
stage lagoons it is common practice to ignore any sludge build up in storage ponds.
Design Treatment Volume
Waste storage ponds are not used to specifically promote bacterial growth and provide
waste treatment through anaerobic means. At times the waste storage pond may be
almost empty, therefore there.is not a minimum design volume component to the design of
waste storage ponds.
Page 8

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE 11
Six Month Wastewater And Rainfall Storage
Wastewater may be pulled off of the top of the waste storage pond and recycled to the
confinement buildings for re -use once a sufficient liquid volume is achieved. Recycled
water instead may be pulled from lagoon #2 if the waste storage pond will ever become
empty. Excess water accumulation will eventually be spray irrigated to crops. Naturally
the farmer will not desire to irrigate every day or every week. Likewise there will be time
periods when the weather will not permit responsible irrigation. This requires there to be
storage volume built into the lagoon system (i.e. the waste storage -pond at Rocky Ridge
Farm) to give the farmer safety and flexibility in the irrigation routine. The time period for
this part of the design can vary between three and six months. To provide that extra
margin of safety six months storage was built into the Rocky. Ridge Farm Site waste
storage pond. However the engineer wishes to explain that in North Carolina there can be
crops grown 9 or 10 months out of the year, thus allowing for less excess water storage
without taking unnecessary risk. The six month storage volume includes excess wastes
produced by the animals, spillage or wasted water, clean-up water, and excess rainfall (less
evaporation) directly into the lagoon system. This does not include rainfall run-off water
from outside the lagoon system since that will be diverted by earthen embankments and
grass water ways.
Six Month Storage Needed:
0.5 cu.ft./lb. x 135 lbs./animal x 5300 animals = 357,750 cul.
or
357,750 cu.ft. x 7.48 gal./cu.ft. = 2,675,970 gallons
One Month Storage: 445,995 gallons
Permanent type water level markers shall be installed inside the pond. The farmer may
install a pole inside the pond so the operator can tell at a glance the current water level
and volume. This measuring device should be well marked and be of a design which best
serves the operator's purpose. As an alternative the farmer may set permanent stakes
along the pond interior to designate various water depths or important levels. If wooden
stakes are used they should be made out of treated lumber and be made highly visible. As -
built pond dimensions and depths are shown in Exhibit 5A.
25 Year - 24 Hour Storm Storage
At any time in North Carolina there can occur a severe rain producing storm which can
deposit considerable amounts of water quickly.
The standard storm surge allowed in lagoon system design (i.e for final stage lagoons or
waste storage ponds) is the 25 year - 24 hour rainfall event. This storm event is
historically different between the Mountains, Piedmont, and Coastal plain and can even
vary between neighboring cities.
Page 9

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE I1
Climatic data from the U.S. Weather Bureau was available to give the designer reasonably
accurate information about such rainfall events. The 25 year - 24 hour storm for the
Fller5e area is around 6.4 inches.
Lagoon #1 empties into Lagoon #2 which empties into the waste storage pond. Surface
areas of each structure are:
Lagoon #1 inflow area = 0.6 acres
Lagoon #2 inflow area = 0.66 acres
Waste Storage Pond inflow area = 1.37 acres
The design engineer is only considering the rainfall falling within the interior of the lagoon
system. There Should Be No Surface Run -Off From Surrounding Areas Allowed To
Enter The Lagoon System Or Waste Storage Pond. All Run -Off Shall Be Diverted
Around The Lagoon System Via Earthen Embankments, Grass Water Ways, Or Similar
Water Diversion Techniques.
The 25 year - 24 hour storm volume for the Rocky Ridge Farm is calculated to be
approximately:
Severe Storm Volume:
Total lagoon system acreage = 2.63 acres.
6.4 inches x 2.63 acres = 16.83 ac-in or 1.4 ac-ft
1.4 ac-ft x 43,560 cu.ft.lac-ft = 60,984 cu.ft.
or
60,984 cu.ft. x 7.48 gal/cu.ft. = 456,160 gallons
Normal Freeboard (Second Storm Allowance)
The most recent design criteria established by the MRCS suggests that a second 25 year -
24 hour storm allowance be made inside the lagoon system before an overflow would
occur. The reader should understand that this second storm allowance is a voluntary
allowance and acts as an additional safety net against effluent overflow in emergency
situations. While the engineer does not disagree with added safety, he also understands
that when water levels are allowed to get within a foot or less of overflow there needs to
be a close look at wastewater management rather than added lagoon volumes. Retrofit
projects without an expansion of SSLW do not have to adhere to the second storm
allowance.

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PRASE II
Emergency Freeboard
Emergency freeboard is the extra depth added to a lagoon (or holding structure) for safety
against a random embankment overflow or dam washout. This extra depth is a safety
measure and prevents water from spilling over the dam, resulting in dam erosion and
complete or partial failure. Emergency freeboard is measured from the emergency
overflow invert to the top of the dam. This amount of added depth is usually selected to
be 1 foot but can be 2 feet in some cases. Freeboard was selected to be 1 foot in the
waste storage pond.
Emergency Freeboard: I foot.
Emergency Spillway Or Overflows
If the swine effluent maximum level is located 3 feet or more above the natural grade and
thers: is outside drainage into the lagoon system and the lagoon volume is greater than I
million gallons, the lagoon shall be provided with an emergency overflow or spillway.
Otherwise an emergency overflow is not a requirement. The engineer believes emergency
spillways should normally be designed into every Iagoon or impoundment structure. In the
engineers opinion if the water level inside a lagoon should exceed the maximum high
water level it should have a predetermined path of overflow in order to safeguard the dam
regardless of surface water inflow or the lack there -of. This emergency spillway should
be located on undisturbed, firm soil not easily .eroded or on a very solid surface like
bedrock, away from the lagoon dam if possible, or in a position where minimal dam, height
is found. The amount of water to be safely passed by an emergency overflow will depend
on several factors and the degree of safety the designer requires. The emergency spillway
should pass the overflow water without over -topping the embankments or dam.
According to the publication "Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design
Manual" (Table 4 - Minimum Spillway Design Storm ) the Rocky Ridge waste storage
pond spillway should be designed for a 10 year - 24 hour storm. The engineer feels that a
shorter duration more intense storm would be more conservative, therefore the engineer,
decided to use a 100 year - I hour storm for emergency spillway design. Weather data for
the Ellerbe area suggests rainfall during this storm event at:
100 year - I hour storm = 3.7 inches
Average flow calculates to be:
3.7 in./hr. x 2.63 acres x 3,630 cu.ftlac.-in. = 35,324 cu.ft/h:.
35,324 cu.ft./hour / 3,600 seconds/hour = 9.81 cu.ft./sec. (cfs)

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE I1
It is a wise practice to allow for sudden surges or peak flows when designing emergency
overflows. However the earthen overflows are only for emergencies. Without presenting
the calculations for peak flows it is safe to say that the above flow could be increased by
roughly 50 percent to account for a peak flow situation. The engineer has assumed an
almost instantaneous flow from all structures into the waste storage pond.
Estimated Peak Flow: 15 cfs (per original design)
TABLE 4
Overflow Sizing Estimated
For: Flow:
Rocky Ridge Farm 15 cfs
cfs = cubic feet per second
As -Built Bottom Width of
Earthen Overflow:
10 feet
The emergency overflow is earthen, therefore a good grass cover shall be maintained
along its length. The spillway is built to carry overflows well passed' the Iagoon
construction area and toe of any embankments. KEEP IN MIND,. THE EMERGENCY
OVERFLOW SHOULD NEVER BE USED IF IT CAN BE AVOIDED.
The emergency overflow entrance for the lagoon overflow is I foot below the lowest
point of any earthen embankments around the lagoon perimeter. The emergency overflow
elevation was verified with a transit after construction.
Earthen Liner And Embankment Construction
The waste storage pond dam is earthen. The constructed top of the lagoon dam was
measured to be at the 87.9 feet contour based on the 100 feet reference set by the
engineer. A bench mark was placed on the flush tanks on the east end of the first house
next to the waste storage pond. The dam is approximately 14 feet tall at its highest point
measured to the outside toe. Additional construction data can be seen in Table 6.
The dam cut-off trench was installed as specified. It was backfilled with a good clay
material and compacted according to specifications. Table 6 give additional details about
the cut-off trench.
While construction was taking place, the contractor stockpiled the best clays to use for
dam construction and for the pond liner. These clays were mostly classified as CL. Some
clay material was also borrowed adjacent to the new pond. Poor soils or rocky soils were
discarded at various places around the'farm and were not used for dam construction or for
liner material.
Twice while the dam was being constructed, the engineer invited Froehling & Robertson,
Inc. (a soil testing company) to visit the site and test compactions on the dam. F & R used
a portable nuclear density gauge and performed the tests according to ASTM 698. The
test results are attached as Exhibit 4. All compactions on the new dam and cut-off trench
Page 12

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE 11.
were greater than 95% as specified. All dam construction occurred according to the
PHASE I specifications,
Minch of the soil excavated below the 75 foot contour consisted of soft weathered rock.
Slight fractures in this material required a clay liner cover as anticipated. During
construction of the liner, the contractor installed thin lifts of clay (CL material) and
compacted the clay with repeated passes of a sheeps foot roller. The thickness of the liner
clay was observed during the engineer's final investigation to be from 2 to 3 feet deep in
the bottom of the pond. Liner thickness tapered to I foot toward the top of the sides.
Part of Exhibit 4 shows the results of a 95% remolded permeability test (ASTM5084 A)
done by F&R on the liner soils at Rocky Ridge Farm. At 95% M.D.D, the average "k"
value was 5.88 x 10-5 cm/sec. Compaction of the in place clay liner at Rocky Ridge Farm
was not tested but it was compacted in the same manner as was the dam. From on -site
borings and probing the engineer believes the clay compaction in the bottom of the lagoon
will exceed 95%, thus decreasing the permeability beyond the test results. The clay liner
was placed in the lagoon in small sections and compacted while moist. Compaction of the
liner was also done on all inside side slopes.

In place (existing) pvc pipes allow water to gravity flow between lagoons. Existing
piping between lagoon #2 and the waste storage pond was left in place as adequate. The
amount -of water to be safely passed by the primary transfer pipes depends on the degree
of safety the designer requires. Under normal day to day operation the maximum rate of
effluent the pipe will need to pass will be a rather small amount. However when heavy
rainfalls occur, the pipe must be able to pass the storm flow without over -topping the
embankments or dam of the upper lagoon(s).
The engineer feels that a short duration intense storm would be a conservative approach to
pipe sizing and design, therefore the engineer decided to use a 100 year - 1 hour storm for
transfer pipe design. Weather data for Ellerbe, N. C. suggests rainfall during this storm
event at:
100 year - 1 hour storm = 3.7 inches

General Sediment and Erosion Control Suggestions
During construction and in the future the farmer shall at all times take whatever means
necessary to control erosion on the farm and prevent sediment or nutrient transport off -
site. The farmer should use terraces grass strips, grass buffer zones, farming on the
contour, silt. fencing, rock dams, etc. in order to control erosion. However, erosion
control design is beyond the scope of this PHASE II package. The local NRCS office
may assist in developing a long term sediment and erosion control plan if requested by the
farmer. Also refer to the PHASE I plans for sediment and erosion control suggestions.
I"i,fter final grading and permanent vegetation is well established around the
confinement houses, lagoon, and dam maintain good covers with mowing and
fertilizing. Annually collect soil samples for analysis, then fertilize and lime
accordingly. Fertilize and lime native grasses around the site and keep existing
ground cover in tact as much as possible. Maintain natural water ways and ditches.
Plant new cover grasses as necessary,
2. Mow grass as desired and in accordance with accepted practices, especially around the
lagoon area. Keep weeds and floating weed mats off of the lagoon.
3. Repair mulch and seed beds as necessary if areas of dead, grass develop or erosion
scars occur.
4. Use pesticides and herbicides only as a last resort to keep grass stands healthy. Use
good housekeeping techniques to control insects along with or instead of pesticides.
5. New shrubs and trees should not be planted closer than 30 feet to the new lagoon and
,not on the lagoon dam. Do not allow trees of any type to grow on the dam.

6. Fescue grass was scheduled for planting during the second week in October.
According to the farmer this is still the schedule.
Lagoon And Pond Management, Operation, Inspections, and Odor
G)ntrol
l . Use common sense and close observations to prevent lagoon upsets.
2. It is desirable to add manure daily or every other day in regular doses. This is
preferred to slug loading the lagoon at irregular intervals or starving the
microorganisms.
3. The lagoon sludge and/or wastewater shall tested to determine its nutrient content
prior to land applications, This shall be done every 60 days or within 60 days prior to
major application events. Send effluent and sludge -samples to the N. C. Department
of Agriculture, Plant, Waste, and Tissue Lab, 4300 Reedy Creek Road, Raleigh, N.C.
27601, Ph. [phone]. Plant or crop tissue samples can also be sent for regular
analysis. Contact the local Cooperative Extension Service for additional details and
phone numbers. Keep in nvnd that sludge applications will Iikely alter routine liquid
application rates. Refer to PHASE I for sample collection techniques.
4a Keep grasses and vegetation out of the lagoon (or storage ponds). Permanent
-floating mats (not weed mats) are not likely to occur on swine lagoons. Such mats
will not interfere with performance but should be removed to help control odor and
insects. Rubber gloves, plastic bags, and trash tend to accumulate in lagoons and
should be cleaned out regularly. Keep it neat!
5. Stored water levels should be lowered before the on set of wet weather seasons and
in accordance with on -farm crop needs. Leave plenty of room for heavy rainfalls or
long wet seasons. Review freeboard requirements and keep enough freeboard for the
appropriate storm surges.
6. Regularly inspect all dams and earthen embankments for settling or bulges, side slope
stability, rodent damage, jug holes or pock marks, erosion scars, wave action damage,
weeping, etc. Weeds should be mown at least one time per year and two times per
year in heavy growth years. Good weed control will help minimize insect problems.
7. Do not drive vehicles across emergency spillways, Keep the spillway clear of limbs,
tall plant growth, logs, floating debris, sedimentation, etc. Watch for erosion and
settling. Keep emergency overflow channel in good vegetative cover and free from
erosion.
8. Grazing on dams and embankments can cause problems and is not allowed.
9. Inspect all dams, earthen embankments, and emergency spillways at least two times
per year or after every significant storm event. The owner/operator shall keep a
written record on all inspections, maintenance and repairs done on the lagoon system
and or dam(s).

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE II
10. Lagoons with floors below the seasonably high water table should maintain the water
levels in the lagoon at or slightly above the seasonably high Ievel {This does not apply
to the Rocky Ridge waste storage pond}.
11, Always maintain at least 1 foot of emergency freeboard in lagoons with pump
systems. If pump units are not ,owned by the farmer where he/she has control of the
use of the pump then the farmer should maintain at least a 2 feet emergency
freeboard.
12, Try to avoid large rapid liquid level reductions inside the waste storage pond. Always
observe the inside dam sides for possible liner sloughing during rapid liquid draw -
downs. Repair damaged clay liners immediately. Pay attention to Any unusual
situations which might be early warning signs of embankment trouble.
13, Emergency spillways should be kept clear of trash and debris. A good grass cover
should be maintained at and down slope of emergency spillways.
14, Once a new lagoon is constructed and ready for filling, it is very important to first add
fresh water to the lagoon prior to adding swine manure. The owners should be careful
to add water to the lagoon until at least one half of the lagoon design, treatment
volume is achieved before adding swine manure. The operator should always strive to
maintain a liquid depth of about 6 feet after a few months of operation. Initial water
addition to the lagoon shall be from water wells on the farm or from nearby creeks, but
if storm water run-off can be easily added to the -lagoon it may be added in place of
well water. Do not allow lagoon side walls to become eroded when filling.
Minimum volume maintenance does not apply to waste storage ponds,
15. Research literature suggests a pH of 7.5 to 8.0 be maintained in an anaerobic swine
lagoon to obtain optimum treatment conditions and minimize odors, During lagoon
start-up the acid forming bacteria will tend to populate faster then the methane
forming bacteria and can lower the overall pH of the lagoon water, if this occurs, the
owners/operator should add hydrated lime to the lagoon -at a rate of 1 pound per 1000
cubic feet of water. The lime can be applied to the surface of the lagoon and mixed
into the surface waters until a proper pH is obtained. Start adjusting the pH if the
lagoon waters drop to or below a pH of 6.7. This tip does not apply to waste
storage ponds.
16. The only way to accurately estimate the volume of sludge in an anaerobic lagoon is to
take measurements. This can be done by using a "sludge judge" or a variety of other
rrreasurin devices. Measure sludge accumulation at least one time every 2 years.
Plan sludge removal events as desired by the farmer in accordance with the waste
utilization plan, weather conditions, etc. PLAN AHEAD!
17. Take extreme care to select optimum conditions for spray irrigation of wastewater and
sludge removal events. Careful planing will help minimize odors. Irrigate wastewater
in dry warm weather if possible, preferably before 12 noon, Try to irrigate when the
wind is not blowing toward neighbors.

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE II
18. Avoid unnecessary agitation of the swine effluent when not irrigating. When possible
allow water to flow into the lagoon in a gentle fashion instead of splashing or
cascading. Inlet piping should be placed below water surface as long as the water
inside the houses will drain out fully. Extreme care should be used when filling and
earthen structure so as to avoid eroding a scar into the side of the structure and
exposing undesirable soils. Use temporary flexible drainage pipe if necessary to
transfer water to the bottom of the holding area. Flexible pipe can be left in lagoon to
keep inflows below the water surface.
19. Effluent piping from the confinement housing should be a minimum of 6 inches in
diameter, however 8 inch piping may be used. Gravity flow piping should be sloped
according to the recommendations of the building contractor. It should be PVC piping
with glue joints. The terminal end of the piping should extend just under the water
sUrface. Normal pipe invent positions are between the maximum six month storage
valurne and the design treatment volume level. If the pipe outlets are underwater and
air tight the pipes should be equipped with vapor traps and vents to prevent gasses
from moving back toward the confinement houses. Clean out ports should also be
provided for each set of pipes keep all clean outs capped to prevent accidental
discharges. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN INSTALLING PIPES ACROSS
FILL MATERIAL SUCH AS A DAM, CONSULT THE ENGINEER OR NRCS
BEFORE DIGGING. Above ground piping is subject to deterioration and/or
mechanical damage. Protect piping at all times for these too can cause accidental
discharges. Do not put raw swine effluent directly into a waste storage pond.
20. Lagoon start-ups are best done in warm weather, particularly in the northern climates.
This is Iess important in southern states. Careful consideration to pH and gradual
start-up loadings can help off -set cool weather start-ups.
2I...Irrigation pump intakes should be a minimum of I8 inclies below the lagoon liquid
surfaces. The operator plans to occasionally agitate the sludge on the lagoon floor
while irrigating in order to minimize sludge build-up. Any irrigation pump and
irrigation nozzles should be designed to pump liquid, and/or slurry, and or solids
depending on needs.
22. Occasional upsets to an anaerobic lagoon can be expected, but the duration of such
events should be very short.. Rapid or sudden temperature changes may cause some
temporary changes in lagoon performance. Long term cold snaps or sudden hot
periods can also cause .upsets. The owners should strive to maintain a, steady state
condition in the lagoon at all times. Avoid the use of harsh or chlorinated chemicals in
the confinement housing or in the lagoon.

23, New products are being developed to help .minimize odors from swine operations.
The owners/operator may utilize such products but these should only be utilized
according to manufacture's recommendations and with caution. Many of these
products do not reduce odors and are a waste of money. Rapid additions of enzymes
or chemicals could cause microbial upsets. Know your product before using.
24. Prevailing winds are typically from the southwest and blow toward the northeast. y,
Plant or maintain wind breaks or trees south and west of the farm complex and lagoon.
Do not irrigate when winds are blowing toward neighbors. i
General Emergency Response Plan
Animal wastes can not impact the surface waters of North Carolina. -In the event of
an emergency or accidental discharge, Johnny Williams and/or the farm manager shall take
the necessary measures to eliminate or at least mininvze.the impact of the discharge and if
possible keep it out of nearby creeks. An emergency may be effluent overflow out of a
lagoon, a dam failure, severe run-off of soil and nutrients due to a storm, a broken effluent
pipe, etc. The owners are required to develop a customized Emergency Response Plan for
this farm. Exhibit 6 also shows a generalized emergency action checklist. As a minimum
the following shall be done (do as applicable):
1. Take the necessary measures to safeguard lives.
2. Stop the discharge ASAP. Temporary measures are acceptable in an emergency.
3. Get a contractor to the site to contain the discharge on a more permanent basis if
needed, Do not wait for contractor to arrive before getting more help if needed.
4. Notify all of these persons listed below (as needed),
5. Develop an agreement with a local earth moving contractor who has equipment that can
be on -site quickly in the event of a dam problem. This shall be a standing agreement
between Mr. Williams and the'contractor. In an emergency notify the contractor of the
situation and specify the type of equipment needed.
6. Evaluate the situation quickly and reduce the impact of the problem if at all possible.
This can be done by turning off valves, stopping water flows, diverting problem flows,
putting up hay bales or silt fencing, installing temporary earthen dams with farm
equipment, pump excess water to other holding areas etc. Not all measures are applicable
to all situations. Irrigating during rainfall events may be better than allowing a Iagoon dam
to fail in an emergency, but notify DWQ first and discuss options.
7. Notify DWQ officials ASAP but always within 24 hours of the problem.
8. Notify local authorities if lives or property are threatened.

The farm owners should develop their own detailed Emergency Response Plan ,and
review this plan with all appropriate persons and employees. Exhibit 6 shows more
information related to such plans. Emergency contacts and phone numbers should be
posted in visible locations, like inside the managers shack or office. This Emergency
Response Plan should have considerable well thought out detail on what to do in each .
type emergency. The plan should address environmental, medical, fire, and storm related
emergencies. Update this plan at least annually.
Discharge emergencies can happen very quickly and every minute counts. Discharges will
probably flow off -site rapidly giving the farm manager only a short time to react.
Therefore making plans in advance is a good investment. The farmer should take some
time to walk around the site with farm employees and think about possible discharge
emergencies. Ask yourself which way would a discharge flow?, is there a creek nearby?,
is there a natural diversion that could be diked to stop the flow?, is there any emergency
spill containment equipment on site?, can you drive to the nearby creek to stop a flow
before it gets away?, what equipment would you use to stop a small or large discharge?,
etc,
Go over these things in your mind and with farm managers and plan out your actions.
Perhaps have a few emergency drills to see how well your people are prepared. Do not
neglect this plan. It could save you a great deal of money and trouble in the future.
Discharges to nearby creeks are serious and could cause you to loose your operating
permit.
Conclusions And Notices.
1. The new waste storage pond at Rocky Ridge Farm is more or less complete as of this
PHASE II report. The contents of this report are included herein to describe the pond
and then compare these numbers to the design parameters in PHASE I. For brevity
reasons certain portions of this report list average values or rounded numbers when
exact values are not appropriate or are of very smail percentages. The engineer feels as
though the structure as built will function properly as a waste storage structure for the
-swine effluent at the as long as the system is maintained.
2. Sirictly according to calculations and "book values", the new waste storage pond
structure should hold a minimum of about 6 months of excess effluent (the design goal
was for 6 months storage). The design values in this document are presented for
guidance, Always leave .room for containment of at least one 25 year 24 hour
storm event in this lagoon.
Page 21

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE II,
3. The farmer must use extreme caution to avoid an unexpected lagoon (or .waste
storage pond) overflow. It is better to keep the liquid levels inside the Iagoon low by
a more intensive irrigation and crop management program than to allow it to become
near full.
4. The potential for bare soils to erode at this farm is moderate. This will require the
farmer to repair erosion scars during .the course of stabilizing the site. It is very
important to repair any erosion as soon as it is observed. Grass should be planted
immediately!
5. The engineer wishes to point out' that certain construction items are yet to be
completed or are almost complete, e.g. grass planting, finished shaping of grass water
ways, etc. These items must be done to have a satisfactory 'lagoon system.
Sediment and erosion control structures and practices must be maintained as long as
there is the potential for erosion. This includes the planting and maintaining of grass.
_ The farmer will be continually responsible for maintaining all parts of this system and
completing the work as promised to the engineer.
b. A small amount of sludge was allowed to settle in the new waste storage pond when
the old lagoon #3 dam was breached. This sludge should have no real effect on the
performance or utility of the new pond.
7, Any person or company owning or controlling the property upon which an animal
waste treatment and disposal system is in operation shall be responsible for all aspects
of the system. The system must be maintained at all times to prevent direct seepage
and/or discharge of effluent to the surface of ponds, rivers, streams, or to any type of
surface or ground waters.
8. The owner is hereby notified that he/she must operate this system in accordance with
state and local laws and regulations. Problems should be reported to the N.C. Division
of Water Quality (DWQ) ASAP. Changes in animal steady state live weight,
operations, ownership, and/or waste management must first be discussed with DWQ
before proceeding. This is not an option for the farmer but a requirement, Increases
in SSLW will require plan modifications.
9. DWQ officials and local health officials are authorized to inspect the system at any
time. Failure to operate the system according to the overall waste management plan
(including freeboard violations) may result in fines, loss of operating permits, etc.
10. The farm owner must keep a copy of this certified report on the farm at all times. He
or she must adhere to the intent of these plans as much as is possible. Alterations in
waste management practices shall at no time violate the intent of this plan.
11. This document does not contain all specifications, rules, and laws associated with the
land application and management of animal waste. Copies of such guidelines and
documentation can be obtained at the local NRCS office, the regional office of DWQ,
or from the Cooperative Extension Service.

12. The engineer takes no. responsibility for changes made to the above system before,
during, or after construction without his knowledge. Nor does the engineer take any
responsibility for human losses or property damages which should occur due to poor
workmanship, improper use of machinery, unknown conditions above or below
ground level, legal problems with boundary lines or easements, acts of nature, "short-
cuts" the owner may take in system construction, improper system operation, or
accidents.
13. The engineer has made a concerted effort to observe the waste storage pond being
constructed at different stages. However, as with most existing systems there are
components of the system that are not visible and were not observed under
construction. Therefore it is necessary to assume certain things that are reasonable for
sm.h systems or take the information given by owners, contractors, etc. Information
given to the engineer by others and used in these specifications shall be taken as truth
if it can not be verified otherwise.
Personal Safety Considerations Around Lagoons (Repeated From
PHASE 1).
1. Fencing around the lagoon is not being recommended since the entrance to the farm
can be controlled, however fencing should be used if needed. If the public or children
will have access to the lagoon area the lagoon should have a stock tight fence installed
around its perimeter. Highly visible warning signs should be installed around the
lagoon and be visible from all sides of the lagoon. Unauthorized persons should be
kept away from the lagoon area.
2. The owners should install throw type safety devices within easy access from at least 2
places around the lagoon in the event of a drowning accident. Safety ropes should
also be kept nearby. At least one person at the farm should have water rescue training.
Any person using a boat on the lagoon must wear a life preserver and have a helper
standing on shore in case of an emergency. All farm personnel should have first aid
acid safety training.
3. Animal manures produce gasses as their solids decompose. Agitation of lagoon solids
or agitation of under slat liquids can cause large amounts of gasses to be released
quickly. The owners should be aware that certain gasses are colorless and odorless
and can cause asphyxiation and death under severe circumstances (usually in confined
spaces and not as likely around a lagoon). It is doubtful gas concentrations would
approach explosive levels, but the owners should be aware of such possibilities in
confined spaces. Employees should be warned about such dangers and trained in
dealing with such matters. The primary types of gases produced by animal manure are
listed below:
Hydrogen Sulfide -(MS):
• The most dangerous of gases produced, especially during manure agitation. This gas is
corrosive to exposed metal parts.
Page 23

ROCKY RIDGE FARM - PHASE I1
• Colorless with distinct odor.
• Heavier than air, accumulates near the floor,
• Recommended maximum safe gas concentrations for an 8 hour exposure to humans:
10 parts per million
o Recommended control of as: Adequate ventilation,
• Not readily explosive.
Carbon Dioxide- CO2 :
• Not particularly toxic in normal concentrations. Large quantities can be released
during manure agitation, Not particulat corrosive.
• Colorless and odorless.
• Heavier than air, accumulates near the floor,
• Recommended maximum safe gas concentrations for an 8 hour exposure to humans:
5,000 parts per million
• Recommended control of as: Adequate ventilation.
• Not readily explosive.
Methane- CH4 :
• The most explosive of gases produced; especially during manure agitation. Not
extreme) toxic at low levels,
o Colorless and odorless.
• 'Lighter than air, accumulates near the ceiling,
• Recommended maximum safe gas concentrations for an 8 hour exposure to humans:
1,000 parts per million
• Recommended control of gas: Adequate ventilation.
• Explosive at concentrations of 50,000 to 150,000 parts per million or 5 - 15
Ammonia- NH4 :
• Not extremely toxic in lower concentrations. Irritating to the eyes and respiratory
system. Can be released in large quantities especially during manure agitation. Can be
corrosive to exposed metal parts.
• Colorless with very distinct odor.
• Li hter than air, accumulates near the ceilin .
• Recommended maximum safe gas concentrations for an 8 hour exposure to humans:
25 parts per million
• Recommended control of as; Ade uate ventilation.
• Not readily explosive,
4• Workers should never go under floor slats unless accompanied by a helper and only if
adequate ventilation is in place. Drain and clean under.slat pits at least 8 hours prior
to entering in addition to providing good ventilation. Workers entering confined
spaces should follow OSHA guidelines for such activities.
Page 24

ROCKY RIDGE FARM -PHASE 11 .
5. The owner/operator may wish to purchase a portable hand held .gas meter for
questionable environmental situations.
6. Beware of spiders and snakes around swine facilities.
7. Workers should attend to cuts and wounds immediately with the proper first aid. Wash
hands often.
Note; An odor control plan, and insect control plan must be developed for this farm.
These plans are beyond the scope of this PHASE 11 document. Likewise a customized I
emergency action plan should be developed by the owners. Brief suggestions for an 1
emergency action plan appear elsewhere in this document.

Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Richmond County
Dear John S. Williams:
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 John S. Williams, authorizing the operation of the subject animal
waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES General
Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your COC Number
AWS770001 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Rocky Ridge Farm, located in Richmond County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 5300 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. 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 monitorina conditions in this permit The Devices to Automatically Stop Irrigation Events Form
must be returned to the Division of Water Quality no later than 120 days following receipt of the
Certificate of Coverage The Animal Facility Annual Certification Form must be completed and returned
to the Division of Water Quality by no later than March 1st of each year. Oft

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 CAW11dP 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.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes frorrryour 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 accessiblelocation for all employees at the
facility. The followingare some action items you should take.
1. 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. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
c. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.

Facility Status: New Expanding �xisting, New Waste Utilization Plan
The purpose of a manure nutrient utilization plan is to estimate the acres of cropland needed to use the
manure nutrients you produce without exceeding your design storage capacity. The plan is based on
average manure generation values and average nutrient content for your type of facility. The plan
requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops you will grow, their nutrient requirements, and
proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This manure nutrient utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting (priority) nutrient. The plan is based
on typical manure production rates and average nutrient contents for this type of facility. Your actual
production and nutrient values may vary. by 20% or more —Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
use. Implementation of the plan based on actual analysis may require additional acres or reduction in
stocking rates to ensure that nutrients are not applied in excess of agronomic rates.
This plats consists of

If implemented according to these specifications, this manure nutrients ranagement plan meets the
requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management
Commission .

Nitrogen utilized: 41,486
Nitrogen generated:-12,761
Deficit: 28,725 lbs N
RECOMMENDATIONS
Applications of waste can be made to the Bermudagrass as early as
30 days prior to green up until growth and nitrogen uptake slows.
For our area this will provide a window from about March 15th (or
1 week after the last 32 degree temp.) until August 15th. Annual
soil tests should be made to ensure that the proper lime and K
(potash) levels are maintained to achieve maximum growth and N
uptake.
When harvesting Bermudagrass as hay, make the first cutting when
the plants are 12-15 inches tall and every 4-6 weeks afterwards.
Apply N when spring growth begins and then after each cutting.
According to the recently passed senate bill 1217, the maximum
rate of nitrogen that can be applied to a winter annual
overseeded into bermuda is 50 lbs N/acre. The best way to apply
this is in split applications with half the N in the fall around
September or October at planting and the other half in late
February as early spring growth begins.
Soil test should be taken and are now required by law, to monitor
pH, phosphorus, and potassium levels to ensure good crop growth.
Zn and Cu levels must also be monitored and technical assistance
sought when index levels reach 700 or more. Lime, Ph, and K
should be applied according to soil test reports.

Plan Ammendment
This waste management plan was ammended on March 30, 2001 to
include a additional tracts of land that will receive swine waste
under a lease agreement. 6 fields from tract 640 and 1 field
fron tract 2226 were added. Hybrid Bermudagrass Hay will.be
grown in these fields and waste applications will be made with a
honey wagon.

Woiahle Acre Detwnbiation For Rocky Ridge Farm
INTRODUCTION
Background About This Form
Rocky Ridge Farm is a swine production farm in the north central part of Richmond County N. C,
The farm is located in an agricultural/rural setting and is situated near the town of Ell erbe. The farm
owner is Mr. Johnny Williams,
Rocky Ridge Farm is certified as a swine finishing operation for approximately a 5,3.00 head. It is not
expanding or adding to its existing animal Steady State Live Weight (SSLW). The owner now uses a
flush recycle system to remove waste from the buildings. Swine effluent is stored and treated in a
multi -stage lagoon system and is recycled into the houses to recharge the waste removal system, On
occasion swine effluent is pumped from the lagoon system and carefully land applied to hay crops via
an existing spray irrigation system. Liquid and slurry animal waste is also applied via a broadcast
tanker in areas that do not receive irrigation, Rocky ridge farm has numerous tracts of land on which
it is permitted to land apply waste, but irrige..tion takes place only on Rocky Ridge land near the
swine houses. Both irrigation and broadcasting are reported to be included in the farm's existing
Certified Animal Waste Management plan (CAWMP), Effluent applied to farm grown crops serves
as a commercial fertilizer substitute,
For many years, Rocky Ridge Farm has used two waste treatment lagoons and a final stage waste
storage pond to support the liquid waste management practices at the farm. Excess liquid wasters
drain by gravity ftom the two. lagoons into the waste storage pond, In 1997 Rocky Ridge increased
their animal waste storage capabilities by enlarging the existing waste storage pond. Because it is a
waste storage pond, it can be pumped dry or almost dry as required by the farmer. Engineering and
specifications for the enlarged storage pond were submitted to the Richmond County USDA -MRCS
by Environmental Engineering Services (EES) in 1997.
Swine production has taker, place at Rocky Ridge Farm for over 20 vears. For about the last 18
years Rocky Ridge has had some form of irrigation in place in the vicinity of the swine houses In
the fall of 1997 Rocky Ridge began to expend its irrigation acres. Mr. Williams had Gra Mac
Distributing Company to design a lay -out for new permanent piping to each field, incorporating his
existing irrigation equipment into the new lay -out. By mid-sununer of 1998 Mr. Williams had
cleared a few new fields, planted grass in these fields, and installed the permanent in -ground piping.
A company called Westbrook and Jarman, Inc out of Pink Hill, NC installed the new equipment.
Gra-Mac and Westbrook and Jarman are not re:;ated companies. On August 12, 1998 EES submitted
a letter to the Richmond County USDA -MRCS verifying that the new irrigation piping and fields had
been installed more or less like the plans developed by Gra-Mac Distributing Company. The EES
letter was for installation verification and performance verification, but it was not a wettable acres
determination, Exhibit 5 shows a copy of that EES letter.
In February of 2001 the North Carolina Dopartment of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR), Division of Water Quality (DWQ) sent Mr. Johnny Williams a "Notification of
Wettable Acre Determination", Mr. Williams then contacted EES to develop this determination,
EES subsequently contacted DWQ to coordinate this effort and verify requirements, Per said
correspondence there were two items being regL,ired for this wettable acre determination verification.,
These were; 1) To develop a to -scale map showing the irrigated fields and pull lanes, and 2) To
provide a calculated wettable acre determination. Irrigation performance data and verification

Wdtabla A= Daterminaticm For Rocky Ridge Farm
calculations were approximated for this system back in 1998 by EES and are not being rc-verified b
this report.
Certain irrigation information presented in this; document was supplied by the farmer and/or irrigation
installer. On -site measurements were also collected by the engineer to help verify hydrant locations,
- equipment types, pipe routing, etc. The farmer has measured irrigation performance on several
occasions and verified that this performance is satisfactory. It will be completely up to the irrigation
system operator to operate the system in accordance with any and all certified plans, to protect the
surface water and ground water of the Stare of North Carolina, and to adhere to all rules and
regulations related to animal waste utilization,
Report Objectives
1. To describe the Rocky Ridge Farm site characteristics as they relate to the irrigation system only.
To explain to the reader where the farm 6 located and a general history of the irrigation system
development at this farm, Descriptions and explanations about historical crop production, lagoon
storage capacities, irrigation performance, irrigation scheduling, etc. will NOI' be included a5
part of this report.
2. To develop a to -scale map showing; irrigated Field locations, irrigation hydrant positions, pull
lanes, buffers, major irrigation component, etc,
3. To evaluate the total wetted acres under irrigation at Rocky Ridge Farm. This will NOT include
any evaluation of crop production, broadcasting zones, Realistic Yield Expectations (R.Y.E),
nitrogen balances, water balances, etc.
General Site Information and Loention
_ The physical location of the farm is in the north central part of Richmond County. Entrance to the
farm is off SR# 1310. Exhibits 1, 2, 3 and 4 show various views of the property.
In general the farm property is bordered by mostly wooded land or farm land with some residential
- dwellings scattered around the immediate community. There are no historical sites noted within 1
mile of this farm.
AH irrigation is taking place on pasture or hay crops near the Rocky fudge swine production
facilities. All irrigation takes place from the waste holding pond (sometimes identified as lagoon # 3,
but it is not a lagoon).
Topography And Drainage
In general, the topography at and around the Rocky Ridge Farm irrigation zones consists of
moderate to steep rol hills with all of i:he drainage from the fields eventually going to an
unnamed creek on the southern border of the farm, and ultimately to Little Mountain Creek. A
USGS topo map of the area can be seen as Exhibit 2 so the reviewer can get an overall view of the
site. The USGS topographic map containing this information is the Ellerbe Quadrangle map
(updated I982). Coordinates for this site are ,approximately Longitude 79 degrees, 47 minutes, 20
seconds; Latitude 31 degrees, 5 minutes, 25 seconds.

Wv"abke Acra DcuTmination i-or Rocky Pid5e E'arm
Every irrigation pull at Rocky Ridge Farm takes place on sloped land. The slopes vary along each
pull. Since surface slopes and soil types are :-elated to proper irrigation rates and not wetted acre
determinations, the engineer will ornit additional discussions about slopes and soil types.
The irrigation zones should not be impacted by 100 year flooding.
The discharge of swine effluent to the surface waters of N.C. is prohibited. Therefore no effluent is
expected to make its way into the nearby strearns and rivers unless by accident. However, due to the
rather steep slopes at Rocky Ridge Farm, any accidental discharge would quickly make; its way into
the unnamed stream along the southern farm border. Any accientai diacharge from irrigation
accidents would likely be small and would be very dilute prior to it reaching any public water supply.
intake, While the eRects of any such occurrence is serious, the engineer believes any major threat to
a drinking water supply is minimal and would not have dramatic and prolonged effects on the
availability of any drinking water supply.
No wet land vegetation was observed within the existing irrigated fields.
Animal Waste Related Set -Barks Or Buffers
There are numerous regulations related to set -tracks and buffers from intensive livestock operations.
Unfortunately these values are subject to rapid change due to legislation, making them hard to
always follow. The engineer has made an attempt to list the appropriate set -backs below according
to the .0200 regulations, General Statue 106 (Senate Bill 1080), Senate Bill 1217, House Bill 515,
etc. as of this report date.
Table 1 shows various buffers or set -backs that apply to swine and dairy operations. Table 1 shows
minimum distances from wetted areas, usually from irrigation, The reader should note that the set-
backs shown are dependent on the time the farm was sited or when irrigation fields were placed in
service. Rocky Ridge farm has been in businem for many years (more than 20 yearn. However, a
few of the irrigation fields were placed in servi,,e after August 27, 1997. It is best if the maximum
irrigation set backs are maintained at this farm, especially on the southern end of field slopes. Wind
conditions, neighbor activities, crop growth, temperatures, etc. may require that buffers be increased.
The grower must be particularly carefirl to avoid spray drift if irrigating on windy days.
The reader will note that the closest off -farm neighbor to the Rocky Ridge irrigation areas is the
residence of Mr. Charles Williams. Charles Williams is a relative of Johnny Williams and has given.
Rocky Ridge Farm permission to spray irrigate animal waste as close as necessary to his property
line or dwelling, Therefore the usual set -backs do not apply to the Charles Williams property. The
next closest dwelling to the irrigated fields is beyond the 200 feet setbacks required between a non..
farm residence and a wetted area. The reader will note specific set -backs for this farm shown on
Exhibit 4. The engineer has made certain recommendations for set -backs based on Table 1 values
and safety concerns. The most critical set -backs will be from the unnamed stream on the southern
farm border to wetted areas. The farmer should not apply animal waste closer than 75 feet to this
stream.
it is important to note that there are no dwellings close to the east border of the farm along pull lane
F3-P7. The engineer has recommended the farmer keep this east side buffer at 50 feet even though
there are no dwellings within about 900 feet of this property line. Such a buffer helps avoid
accidental property line crossings during wind gists.

? = This setback has not been confirmed, but it is considered a goad recommendation.
+ = Typical right-of-ways from secondary roads iti NC is 30 feet from the center line of the road. This means
to stay 25 feet away from the right of way or a total of 55 feet from the center line of the road. The engineer
would suggest a buffer of at least 75 feet from public road right-of-ways if using big gun irrigatimi to avoid
unpleasant accidents, especially in windy conditims. Twenty five feet is recommended if using a "honey
wagon" to broadcast near public road right-of-ways,
++ ; A light application of effluent over grass waiver ways to maintain a good grass cover is acceptable. This
is different from deep groundwater lowering ditches. Use good judgment and plan this type of activity away
from rain events. Do not irrigate in wet lands if avoidable. Do not heavily apply waste in valleys which are
subject to high rainfall run off or in wet weather drainage ways. 100 feet buffers from perennial water (i,c.
blue line streams) are recommended by the engineer for all fields where waste is to be applied (if applicable).
Miscellaneous Irrigation Considerations
Due to the steepness of several of the Rocky Ridge Farm irrigated fields, the farmer must exercise
diligence in keeping run-off ftom occurring. Erosion could also become a problem at this farm in the
irrigated fields if crop covers are not maintained, It is vitally important that the farmer pay close
attention to irrigation schedules at this farm. Strong slopes will encourage surface run off to
occur, especially during rainfall events. Nearby wet weather streams and ponds down -slope
from the irrigated fields and could be impacted by the over application of effluent or by a
sudden rain storm shortly after irrigation,

Wcriablo Acro Ddemtinatim For Rocky Ridgc form
Field fringes and non irrigated fields can have atimal waste applied via a slurry tanker. Therefore the
total crop acres may or may not be reduced by irrigation limitations. Crop plans and land application
methodology should appear in the Rocky Ridge CAWMP,
In North Carolina the prevailing winds are typically from the south-west blowing to the north-east
but can blow from any direction at any time cif the year (see Table 2). There are no high density
residential developments, hospitals, schools, or parks immediately north east of the Rocky Ridge
Farm parcel but some individual dwellings do wrist in the nearby community. The land application of
waste should not be inhibited by these nearby dwellings as long as all precautions and safeguards are
Followed. It is a good idea to plant or maintain tree lines between irrigation fields and neighbors or
- public highways. Avoid spraying an windy days or when the wind is blowing toward nearby
neighbors.

From limited observation, the engineer did not observe any unusual natural or archeological features
at this farm parcel where waste is to be applied. No endangered or threatened wildlife species were
noted.
The operator of an agricultural irrigation system for wastewater must be certified. Certification

EXISTING IRRIGATION EQUIPMENT AT ROCKY RIDGE FARM
As stated earlier, Rocky Ridge Farm has been using the same irrigation equipment since before 1997,
However in 1998 permanent piping was installed and some additional land was cleared to expand the
irrigated acres. Table 3 is a listing of the irrigation equipment currently in use at this farm.
Broadcasting equipment is not listed in Table 3 -

WETTABLE ACRE DETERMINATION
Rocky Ridge Farm irrigation system mostly consists of a single hard hose traveler with engine driver,
one diesel powered irrigation pump, and underground or permanent piping as described in Table 3.
Exhibit 4 shows this general irrigation setup wi,,h the dotted lines showing the approximate center of
normal irrigation lanes. The semi -circles on Iixhibit 4 show approximate wetted areas coveted by
gun cart nozzles. These semi -circles represent the manufacturer's reported coverage diameters.
The semi -circles shown are not effective wetted areas or CAWMP wettable acres. The reader
may find that some of the drawn semi -circles will slightly overlap in coverage, but for the most part
each pull is to be considered a single pull for calculating wettable acres.
There are a total of 5 pull lanes at Rocky FJdge Farm. These designations were given to the
engineer by the farmer and should coincide witty the existing CAWIMP. The individual pull lanes are
shown in Table 4 below.

Wdtable Atwe Daterrminatirm R�,- R,onl.? Ridge Farm
To facilitate record keeping it is best to keel) irrigation records by pull lane within any given field.
Grassy areas outside of the pull zones can also be used for waste provided they do not infringe on
- set -backs and are listed in the farmer's Certift{-d Animal Waste Management Plan (C:AW M). If any
crop land receives waste via, broadcast, it must be recorded and documented,
- In 1997 pocky Ridge Farm had an expansion to its irrigation system designed by Gra-Mac
Distributing Company. Gra-Mac's design utilized the existing irrigation equipment for the
expansion, but planned to install new below ground piping and permanent hydrants to each field.
-- Mr. Williams selected a different company (Westbrook and Jannan, Inc.) to install the permanent
piping for the expansion. Wcitbrook and Jarman more or less used the Gra-Mac design for their
installation.. The engineer has reviewed the Gra-Mac design and the Westbrook and Jarman
installation and found the installation to be close to the parameters of Gra-Mac.
Table 5 shows some general information about the irrigation system as it was designed by Gra-Mac
..__ Distributing Company, This information is being shown for informational purposes only, The
engineer did not confirm the precipitation rates or application rates shown in Table 5 since this is
beyond the purpose of a wettable acre determination.

%VcRable Acre Wantwiation For Rm*y Ridge Farm
Table 7 shows the total estimated CAWMP Wettable Acres for each field by pull lane. This table is a
summary of wettable acre determination calculations showing each portion of the calculation
process. This table was developed using a specific set of pressure and pumping criteria. If such
settings were changed the actual wettable acres will also change. The wettable acre determination
was performed using the procedures outlined in the publication titled "Irrigated Acreage
Determination Procedures for Wastewater Application Equipment, Hard Hose Traveler Irrigation
System", published by the NC Cooperative Extension Service, NC; State University,
The reader will note the following specifics about the CAWMP Wettable Acre determination shown
in Table 7;
1. Rocky Ridge Farm began irrigating swine effluent sometime during the mid 1980's. In 1998
irrigated fields were added to the farm. Then engineer has used the most recent set -back or
buffer criteria for all irrigated fields even Clough the older fields were in use prior to 1998,
2. The Rocky Ridge Farm irrigation system was installed prior to October 28, 1998. Therefore it is
being considered an existing system.
3. Every pull at Rocky Ridge Farm is being considered a single lane. Exhibit 4 shows that some of
the wetted diameters (as published by the equipment manufacturer) overlap in a few places, but
_ these overlaps are very small. In addition, some of the pull lanes on Exhibit 4 show a slight
overlap into wooded areas, but should not appreciably affect the actual wetted coverage of the
sprinkler.
4, The engineer has reduced the manufacturer's suggested wetted diameter by 191yo for calculating
CAV*W wetted acres since each pull i,; being considered a single pull. This was done in
accordance with a Memorandum developed by the 1217 Interagency Group and dated August
21, 2001 and is in agreement with the Cooperative Extension publication referenced earlier.
S. irrigated zone F3-P7 shows a gun cart nozzle pressure of 50 psi. This is the only pull zone that
- has a pressure less than 70 psi.

Rockingham, N.C. 28380
Re: N.C. Agricultural Cost Share Program, Request For Payment Form. irrigation Installation
Verification At The Rocky Ridge Farm, Richmond County. Owner is Mr, John S. Williams Jr.
Dear Ms. Marra,
Please find attached the above referenced form. This form is number NC-ACSP-3 (8/95). I am
-- attaching this letter to the form rather than signing; the form itself since there are several areas that
need explanation.
-- By this letter, my signature and seal I am certifying that the underground piping for the irrigation
system at the Rocky Ridge Farm has been installed. The piping, hydrants, air vents, etc, were
installed by a different firm than originally designed the system. For clarity, below are a few
corn ments related to the system design and installation.
_ 1. Rocky Ridge Farm is an established swine production operation and has had an above ground
animal waste irrigation system for years. However, with the need for a certified design to meet
the newest animal waste regulations, Mr. Williams sought to have a certified design (i.e. to verify
_ the existing system adequacy or to suggest improvements) by a certified technical irrigation
specialist. The irrigation piping and pull paths were designed (and/or ve; ified) in December of
1997 by Mr. Ronnie Wall with Gra-Mac Distributing Company. Gra-Mac's address is 2310, NC
Highway 801 North, Mocksville, NC, 27028. It is my understanding that Mr, Wall also signed
the technical specialist certification form for this work as required by the NC Division of Water
(duality. In July of 1998, Mr. Williams obtained the services of Westbrook and Jarman, Inc.,
— P.Q. Box 335, Pink Hill, NC 28572, to install permanent underground piping, etc. necessary for
the designed irrigation system. Environmental Engineering Services (EES) was not involved in
the original design or in the installation, however Mr. Williams requested EES to review the
system as installed and verify its proper construction. On August S, 1998 Larry F. Graham, P,E,
with EES visited the site to view the installation.
2. Westbrook and Jarman made some modifications to the Gra-Mac design when installation took
place. The primary plan deviations were:
• Gra-Mac originally designed the system to be operated with existing above ground movable
aluminum pipe. Westbrook and Jarman used PVC pipe and installed it below ground in a
permanent configuration.
a Pulls I and 5 were installed so they pull oppositaw- (Le. opposite direction) of the Ora -Mac de'sign,

• Pull number 4 was left out due to adequate coverage by other pulls.
+ Most of the pulls were increased in pull length over the Ora-h:ac design.
• Various air release valves and butterfly type ,calves were installed by Westbrook and Jarman,
which did not appear on the Ora -Mac drawing, All valves and component parts would appear to
meet or exceeded the typical minimum standards for irrigation design-
• Mr. Williams now has the ability to irrigate behind the lagoon darn if needed. However the
engineer would caution Mr. Williams to use extreme care in irrigating this location. The
broadcast wagon may be the better alternative f Dr waste application in this area.
3. The engineer reviewed the original design calculations provided by Gra-Mac and compared these
to the as -built system to make sure the predicted performance would not be reduced by the as -
built lay -out. While the engineer thinks the total dynamic head for some of the pulls has
increased above the original design, the basic intent and purpose of the original design has been
- kept, The engineer used previously developed Elevation information in his verification. Also, the
irrigation pump and power unit Mr. Williams is using is more than capable of pumping the
effluent as designed,
4. The actual acres now under irrigation may be greater than originally designed. Mr. Williams will
be using a broadcast type wagon to Iand apply onto areas out of irrigation paths. However, the
engineer did not go back through the farmer's waste utilization plan to verify the required acres
for waste application,
3. The design values used in the construction of this system would appear to be in agreement with
standard MRCS design criteria for the irrigations of animal waste. From the on -site inspection,
discussions with others, and calculation veriftcition the engineer believes the system has been
installed satisfactory. The associated irrigation buffers or set -backs should be achievable with the
system as installed.
The Rocky Ridge Farm crop land is moderately to steeply sloping. Irrigation on this land will need
to be done carefully so as to not allow the run-off of effluent. Mr. Williams has demonstrated in the
past that he can land apply waste without run-off, thus adding confirmation to the design values
presented by Ora -Mac in the original design. While the design values from Gra-Mac on application
amounts and pull rates for the traveling gun should be reasonable, it will be up to Mr. Williams to
manage his irrigation system so as to always prevent effluent run-off to surface waters.
The engineer can not take responsibility for the accuracy of all information or conclusions made by
- others and referenced herein. Information given to the engineer by the owner or others and used ill
this verification shall be taken as truth if it can not be verified otherwise, Aluch of the information
presented above is based on estimated conditions, estimated operational capabilities, etc, that are
subject to change. When dealing with so many vcriables and natural elements it is impossible to
predict in advance all operational conditions, however the concepts and methodology reviewed are
reHabte.
The engineer is only certifying the presented design -values and irrigation equipment adequacy of the
Rocky Ridge Farm and takes no responsibility for changes made to the above plan before, during, or
after construction without his knowledge. Nor doe: the engineer take any responsibility for human

losses or property damages which should occur clue to poor workmanship, impropol• use of
machinery, unknown conditions above or below ground level, legal problems with boundary fines or
easements, acts of nature, "short-cuts" the owner may take in system modification, or improper
system operation..
The engineer believes that the installed irrigation pipng and existing irrigation equipment should be
adequate for that farm given the proper on -site le-iel of management required is provided. No
_ certification can be all inclusive or contain each and every aspect of all possible outcomes associated
with high intensity animal growing operations. The omgineer has nut developed as -built drawings or
provided written technical specifications for this system.
I hope this information meets your needs. Picase call me if there are any questions
