Appendix 3. Worksheet for sludge volume and treatment volume Revised August 2008
The average thickness of the sludge layer and the thickness of the existing liquid (sludge -free) treatment zone are determined
from the information on the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form ( Items 0 and P, respectively). In this example, the average sludge
layer thickness is 2.5 feet and the existing liquid treatment zone is 3.5 feet. If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume,
see notes at end of the worksheet. The dimensions of the lagoon as measured and the side slope are needed
for calculations of sludge volume and of total treatment volume, If the lagoon is a standard geometric shape, the sludge
volume and the treatment volume in the lagoon can be estimated by using standard equations. For approximate volumes
of rectangular lagoons with constant side slope, calculate length and width at the midpoint of the layer, and multiply by layer
thickness to calculate layer volume, as shown in the example. For irregular shapes, convert the total surface area to a square
or rectangular shape. For exact volumes for lagoons with constant side slope, the "Prismoidal Equations" may be used.
Example Your Lagoon
1 Average sludge Layer Thickness (T) 2.5 ft. 4.0 ft.
2, Depth of the lagoon from top of bank to bottom soil surface (D) 11 ft. 12.0 ft.
3. Slope = Horizontal! vertical side slope (S) 3 3.0
4. Length at the top of inside bank (L) 457 ft. 340,0 ft.
5. Width at top inside slope (W) 229 ft. 240.0 ft.
6, Length at midpoint of sludge layer Lm = L-2S(D-(T/2)) 398.5 ft. 280.0 ft.
7. Width at midpoint of sludge layer Wm= W-2S(D-(T/2)) 170.5 ft. 180.0 ft.
8. Volume of sludge (Vs) Vs=L", Wm T 169,860 ft3 201,600 ft3
9. Volume in gallons: VsQ=V*7,5 gal,/ft3. 1,273,950 gal. 1,512,000 gal.
10. Thickness of existing liquid tmt, zone (Y) 3.5 ft 4.4 ft
11. Thickness of total treatment zone (Z) Z= T+Y 6 ft 8.4 ft
12. Length at midpoint of total tmt. zone Lz = L-2(S)(D-(Z12) 409 ft. 293.2 ft.
13. Width at midpoint of total tmt, Zone WZ = W-2(S)(D-(Z12) 181 ft. 193.2 ft.
14. Volume of total treatment zone (Vz) Vz = LZ WZ Z 444,174 ft3 475,828 ft3
15. Ratio ( R) of sludge layer volume to total Treatment Volume
R = Vs/Vz 0,38 0.42
if the ratio R exceeds 0.50, than a sludge Plan of Action may be required. Check with DWQ for information
on filing the Plan of Action.
Note: If the lagoon has a designed sludge storage volume (DSSV), subtract that volume from both the volume
of sludge (Vs) (item 8) and from the volume of total treatment zone (Vz) (Item 14), and take the ratio.
Then, R = (Vs-DSSV) / (Vz - DSSV)
Example: If DSSV = 85,000 ft3, then R = (169,860 - 85,000) / (444,174 - 85,000) = 84,860 ! 359,174 = 0.24.
16, Design sludge storage volume (DSSV) 85,000
17. Ratio (R) of sludge layer volume to treatment volume adjusted
for designed sludge storage volume

In response to your Notice Of Violation NOV-2021-PC-0463 for Whitewoods Farm (82-0708)
dated September 30, 2021 and received by me on 11/05/2021, (my son signed for letter on
October 2 and failed to give letter to me), I submit the following:
1. Violation 1: Failure to calibrate all waster application equipment.
Extension agent Max Knowles performed the calibration of the waste application equipment on
September 17, 2021 and has been emailed to DWR staff Diane Harrison. In the future technical
specialist Nathan Bridgers will be assisting with all aspects of the waste application protocols
and record keeping. I will be working closely with Nathan Bridgers in conducting timely
calibrations of my waste application equipment in the future.
2. Violation 2: Failure to collect an analysis of a representative sample of the animal
waste to be applied in accordance with the time of application.
In the future technical specialist Nathan Bridgers will be assisting with all aspects of the waste
application protocols and record keeping. Nathan Bridgers has performed a waste analysis and
will be emailed to DWR staff Diane Harrison. Another waste analysis will be performed within a
week from today and a copy will be emailed to DWR staff Diane Harrison. I will be working
closely with technical specialist Nathan Bridgers in the future in collecting on time waste
analysis.
3. Violation 3: Failure to conduct a sludge survey accumulation in all lagoons every year.
Extension agent Max Knowles performed a sludge survey for both lagoons on September 17,
2021 and report has been emailed to DWR staff Diane Harrison. In the future technical
specialist Nathan Bridgers will be assisting with all aspects of the waste application protocols
and record keeping and I will be working closely with him in conducting timely sludge surveys in
the future.
4. Failure to record all irrigation and land application events(s) including hydraulic
loading rates, nutrient loading rates and cropping information.
In the future technical specialist Nathan Bridgers will be assisting with all aspects of the waste
application protocols and record keeping. I will be working closely with Nathan Bridgers on
completing the IRRI & IRR2 forms for the pumping events using the calibration and nitrogen
concentration. I am working with Nathan Bridgers on getting records up to date and will be
working/talking/emailing records to DWR staff Diane Harrison.
5. Failure to have a representative Standard Soil Fertility Analysis conducted.
In the future technical specialist Nathan Bridgers will be assisting with all aspects of the waste
application protocols and record keeping. I will be working closely with Nathan Bridgers on
conducting soil fertility analysis every year. A current Soil Analysis will be performed this week
and emailed to DWR staff Diane Harrison.
6. Failure to have a protective vegetation cover on all earthen lagoon/storage pond
embankments, berms, pipe runs and storm water diversions with the goal of preventing
erosion.
I am working closely with engineers at Smithfield Hog Production to correct the eroded areas
around discharge pipes and reseeding grass on the lagoon tops. I will be working closely with
technical specialist Nathan Bridgers in these areas as well. Removal of trees of lagoon has
been completed.
7. Failure to keep collection, treatment and storage facilities, and the land application
equipment and fields properly operated and maintained at all times.
Fields are being bush hogged now and will be completing this process this week and fields will
be sprayed and documentation will be sent to DWR staff Diane Harrison. I will be working with
technical specialist Nathan Bridgers and extension agent Max Knowles closely in the future
spraying spray fields for weeds in a more timely manner. The spray fields (Coastal Bermuda
Hay Fields) have been leased out to local cattle farmer and were sprayed once at the beginning
of the summer with Cimarron herbicide. However, the herbicide worked in some areas and did
not work as well in other areas. I cancelled the cattle farmer's lease this year and I will be
managing the weed control and crop harvesting for the spray fields in the future, with Nathan
Bridgers and Max Knowles assistance.
I hope that my answers to the violations and planned changes will be sufficient so as to avoid a
fine. I will be managing all aspects of waste disposal system to the highest level in the future. To
manage at a higher level, I will be working closely with technical specialist Nathan Bridgers and
extension agent Max Knowles. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Ken Spell
