The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally, waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than five (5) tons per acre per year. With special pre -cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. These conditions may result in runoff to surface waters, which is not allowed under Division of Water Resources regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered, so as to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this is the manner that you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Any commercial fertilizer used needs to be included In the total PAN applied. NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996, the Coastal Zone Management Act requires farmers in some eastern counties of NC to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. Figure 1: Soils Map (old Image, only use it for soil types) 3 Acres shown in Table 1 are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. See the wetted acres (WA) map in the Appendix, which shows the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water. The irrigated acres were determined for both center pivots on June 28, 2017. At that time, the outermost nozzle on Pivot System #1 was clogged. The "as -is" measured wetted acres was 21.5. With the nozzle cleared, the acres would be 22.0. NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. The production facility will produce approximately 525 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge, which will need to be removed on a periodic basis. The PAN was determined with the expectation that the sludge would be broadcast applied. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well as special equipment, may be needed when this sludge is removed. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation, nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. The facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage, and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months. In no instance should the volume of waste stored in the lagoon structure be within 1.58 feet of the top of the dike. The lagoon liquid is to be applied by surface irrigation via two center pivot systems. The inside panel information about the two systems is shown in the Appendix as Figures 1 and 2. Mr. Hardison indicated during the wetted acres determination that he operates the systems at the 100% timer setting, which delivers roughly 0.10" per event. This rate is well below both the soil application rate of 0.50 Inlhr and the maximum permitted application depth of 1-inch. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION Mr. Josh Hardison purchased the facility in fall of 2010. In 2011, he requested a revision of the WUP to utilize a corn, wheat, soybean rotation on field #1, tract 3012, pulls #1, #2, #3. All information was provided by the Soil & Water office of Onslow County. In 2012, NRCS performed a wetland determination at the facility, as Mr. Hardison wanted to switch to using center pivots for his irrigation. The determination was conducted by Mr. Richard Brooks, NRCS, on September 9, 2012. The wetland determination map is shown in the Appendix as Figure 3. Land was cleared for the installation of Pivot System #1. This updated plan incorporates the Information for the two center pivots. 4 PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water Is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Resources for every day the discharge continues. 2. The Field Office must have documentation In the design folder that the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there Is a change in the operation, Increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management; unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS)' or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). if an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM. (See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim Riparian Forest Buffers). 5. Odors can be reduced by Injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied to acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate, such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters, and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur, in order to control conditions conducive to odor or flies, and to provide uniformity of application. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop on bare soil or breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal Waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainage ways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted croplands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist'. Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and Industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system, 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc, are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used In a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human 6 consumption, it should only be applied as a pre -emergence with no other applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least once every three years at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. The pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina Department of Agriculture regulations. 24. All waste application equipment must be tested and calibrated at least once every two (2) years. The results must be documented on forms provided by, or approved by, the Division of Water Resources. 7 NAME OF FARM: Double "H" Farms OWNER 1 MANAGER AGREEMENT I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above.

JUL 1 6 2009 RECEIVEo / DENR I DWQ AQUIFFix'r'I?nTFr.TI0N SFCTION JUL .10 2009 The estimated acre needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Actual acreage requirements may be more or less and should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be fle)able so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, fe, tons, etc.) 7680 animals x 0_4 waste/animal/year = 3072 /year AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 7680 animals x 0.48 lb. PAN/animal/year = 3,686.4 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. See attached map(s) showing the field(s) to be used for the utilization' of animal waste. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown and the method of application: 2 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the PAN applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. The amounts shown in the table below are maximums If the soil is dry and conditions are at the optimum for soil intake. It is the responsibility of the producer and the land application system designer to ensure that the application system is designed, installed, and operated properly to avoid any runoff of waste from the land applied to. Failure to observe the maximum recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Table 3: APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION PARAMETERS Tract # Field # Soil Type Crop Rate Application In/Hr. Application Amount In. 3012 1 FoA 0.5 1 172 1 FoA 0.5 1 This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can only be applied under optimum soil conditions. 5 Your facility is designed for 210 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 7 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure be within the 25-year - 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year - 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader and/or irrigation equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the correct rates or nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. If assistance is needed, call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 583.68 pounds of PAN per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2918.4 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 23.3 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% or more depending on your sludge analysis, soil types, crops, realistic yields, and application methods. REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste, which reaches surface water, is prohibited by state law. Illegal discharges are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for each day the discharge continues. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or M has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner that is within a reasonable proximity, allowing the producer the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical date, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FQTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip and Standard 390 - Riparian Forest Buffers.) These filter strips and forest buffers are in addition to "buffers" required by DWQ. 5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation -tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina"for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a manner which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions conducive to odor and insects and provide uniformity of application. S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils 7 with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: • The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal). • Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips.) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the producer. 14. Animal waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetland(s) by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land application site by a °technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into watercourses. On other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from truck or other washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary, to protect vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs; and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. E:] 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan'" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops -for direct human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop growing season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and cropper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when the metals approach excessive levels. Acidity levels (pH) shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION: Corn has been reduced by 20 ibs as stated on page 4. Nitrogen application on Wheat will be split between spring and fall.

Shaw Shaw Farms 484 Huffmantown Road Richlands NC 28574 Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS670062 Shaw Farms Swine Waste Collection, Treatment, Storage and Application System Onslow County Dear Lewis M. Shaw: On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the Division -of Water Quality ,(Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit. In accordance with your application received on March 4, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Lewis M. Shaw, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS670062 which expired on April 30, 2003. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Shaw Farms, located in Onslow County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 7680 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be -effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. 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. 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. �wY N�6ENR Non -Discharge Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Customer Service Center An Equal Opportunity Action Employer Internet httpJm2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919)715-6048 Telephone 1-877-623-6748 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper ONSLOW SOIL & WATER_-CONSE_RV_ATION DISTRICT _.

Richlands, NC 28574- Telephone: 910 324-4378 Type Operation: Wean to Feeder Number of Animals: 7680 Existing (Design Capacity) Storage Structure: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon Application Method: Irrigation The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crops to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. - This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. - - 1 The estimated acre needed to apply_ the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Actual acreage requirements may be more or less and should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 1 SA NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, W, tons, etc.) 7680 animals x 0_4 waste/animal/year = 3072 /year AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 7680 animals x 0.48 lb. PAN/animal/year = 3,686.4 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. See attached map(s) showing the field(s) to be used for the utilization of animal waste.

If nutrients from other sources such as commercial fertilizer are applied, they must be accounted for. Total N must be based on the crop realistic yield expectation (RYE). NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K maybe over applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996, the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This waste utilization plan only addresses Nitrogen. Acres shown in the preceding table(s) are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in. the fields listed may, and, most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. 4 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the PAN applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. The amounts shown in the table below are maximums if the soil is dry and conditions are at the optimum for soil intake. It is the responsibility of the producer and the land application system designer to ensure that the application system is designed, installed, and operated properly to avoid any runoff of waste from the land applied to. Failure to observe the maximum recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Table 3: APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION PARAMETERS Tract # Field # Soil Type Crop Rate Application In/Hr. Application Amount In. 3012 1 FoA 0.5 1 172 1 FoA 0.5 1 _ This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can only be applied under optimum soil conditions. 5 f Your facility is designed for 210 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 7 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure be within the 25-year - 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year - 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader and/or irrigation equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the correct rates or nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. If assistance is needed, call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 583.68 pounds of PAN per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2918.4 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 23.3 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% or more depending on your sludge analysis, soil types, crops, realistic yields, and application methods.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crops to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to ma)amize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acre needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Actual acreage requirements may be more or less and should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be fle)able so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft°, tons, etc.) 7680 animals x 0_4 waste/animal/year = 3072 /year AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 7680 animals x 0.48 lb. PAN/animal/year = 3,686.4 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. See attached map(s) showing the field(s) to be used for the utilization of animal waste.

If nutrients from other sources such as commercial fertilizer are applied, they must be accounted for. Total N must be based on the crop realistic yield expectation (RYE). NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996, the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This waste utilization Dian only adctr�esses Nitrogen Acres shown in the preceding table(s) are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. 4 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the PAN applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. The amounts shown in the table below are maximums if the soil is dry and conditions are at the optimum for soil intake. It is the responsibility of the producer and the land application system designer to ensure that the application system is designed, installed, and operated properly to avoid any runoff of waste from the land applied to. Failure to observe the maxdmum recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Table 3: APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION PARAMETERS Tract # Field # Soil Type Crop Rate Application in/Hr. Application Amount In. 3012 1 FoA 0.5 1 172 1 FoA 0.5 1 This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maxdmum application amount shown can only be applied under optimum soil conditions. 5 Your facility is designed for 210 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 7 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure be within the 25-year - 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year - 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader and/or irrigation equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the correct rates or nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. If assistance is needed, call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 583.68 pounds of PAN per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2918.4 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 23.3 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% or more depending on your sludge analysis, soil types, crops, realistic yields, and application methods. REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste, which reaches surface water, is prohibited by state law. Illegal discharges are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for each day the discharge continues. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or C V has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner that is within a reasonable proximity, allowing the producer the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical date, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip and Standard 390 - Riparian Forest Buffers.) These filter strips and forest buffers are in addition to °buffers° required by DWQ. 5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation -tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina"for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a manner which does not cause drift from the site during application: No ponding should occur in order to control conditions conducive to odor and insects and provide uniformity of application. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils 7 ACI I with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: • The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal). • Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips.) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13.

The foundation of the lagoon shall be cleared of all trees, stumps, roots, brush, sod, organic soil, and debris. All stumps and all roots exceeding 1 inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of 1 foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. After clearing is completed the foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly and roughly leveled, with suitable equipment, before placement of any embankment material. Cutoff Trench: Due to site conditions and location of lagoon to be constructed, a cutoff trench is not required on this project. Existing Tile Drains: If tile drains are encountered, the the will be dug up and removed from the entire foundation area. The the trench shall be backfilled with a compacted layer of CL or CH material. A new outlet will be provided for the tile drain or it will be completely removed. Excavation: Topsoil shall be stocked piled separately for later use. The bottom of the lagoon shall be excavated as shown on the plans. Scarify and compact the bottom and, where practicable, the side slopes of the lagoon to decrease the permeability of the soil in the lagoon. Embankment Construction: The material placed in the embankment shall be free of sod, roots, stones over six (6) inches in diameter, and other objectionable materials. Excavated and hauled in clay materials shall be used in the embankment. The embankment shall be a"zone fill" embankment as shown in the drawings. Compaction of the hauled in clay material shall be by sheepsfoot roller as specified below. Compaction of the on -site material can be by any method listed below. Construction of the embankment shall be made in layers not to exceed 4 inches in thickness. Compaction shall be equivalent to or better than the routing of the hauling and spreading equipment over the fill in such a manner that every point on the surface of each layer of fill will be traversed by not less than one tread track of the loaded equipment traveling in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. If pans are not used, construction of the embankment shall be made in layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness and compacted with a sheepsfoot roller with a minimum of 4 passes per unit width of fill lift. At any time the embankment surface becomes "slickened" such that the succeeding layer will not bond to the previous layer, scarify the previous layer sufficiently to assure bonding of the surfaces before continuing with the fill operation. Construction of the fill shall be undertaken only at such times that the moisture content of the fill material will permit a reasonable degree of compaction. Construction of the embankment shall allow an additional 5% for 1 settlement. Stock piled topsoil shall be spread over top of embankment and outside side slopes for the establishment of vegetation. Soil Liner: A soil liner will be installed as shown on the drawings. Only material from the approved borrow source shall be used in the soil liner. The liner shall be compacted by the sheepsfoot roller method shown above. .The liner shall be a minimum of 1.8 feet thick in the bottom and on the sides. The material shall be zoned as shown in the drawings. The material shall be CL material as defined by the Unified Soil Classification System. The material shall be compacted to a minimum of 95% of Standard Proctor. Pollution Control Durinug Construction:: Stripping of embankment and borrow areas shall be done as they are needed in a normal sequence of construction. Use temporary mulch protection on all disturbed areas that are subject to erosion and will not have substantial' additional work performed for 30 days. Vegetation:_ Vegetation shall be established on the slopes, embankment top and all other disturbed areas, except the area that will be inundated, as specified in the plans as soon as possible after construction. Necessary steps shall be taken to ensure that a good stand,.of vegetation is established in a reasonable amount of time.

Foundation Preparation: The foundation area shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders, sod, and rubbish. When a liner is being installed after the facility has been in use, care should be taken to remove sludge and sediments down to the original soil material. Foundation preparation must also extend deep enough to eliminate any effects from drying that may have occurred during previous operations. The.topsoil and sod are to be stockpiled. After stripping, the foundation area will be prepared to assure a bond with the fill by removing loose, dry material, scarifying, disking, adjusting moisture, and compacting. Liner Placement: The material placed in the fill shall be free of detrimental amounts of sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. The materials will be from those designated borrow areas. The distribution and gradation of materials shall be such that there will be no lenses, pockets, streaks, or layers of material differing substantially in texture or gradation from the surrounding material. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by a minimum of 4 passes of standard -tamping roller (sheeps£oot roller) or equivalent method approved by the engineer. Compaction will be considered adequate when the fill material is consolidated to the point that settlement is not readily detectable. Water Content Control: The minimum water content of the liner material and foundation shall be the optimum water content that relates to the specified dry density or such that, when kneaded in the hand, the fill material -will form a ball which does not readily separate. The maximum water content is when soil compaction efforts do not properly consolidate the soil, or when conditions are too wet for efficient use of the hauling and compaction equipment. Installation: Installation shall be conducted in a workmanlike. Extreme caution must be exercised in compaction around structures or conduits to prevent movement, or deflection. A consistent homogeneous necessary. The installation shall be done with pro content and with adequate mixing of the soil materi this. skillful and backfill and damage, fill is per moisture als to accomplish 1 General: Construction operations shall be carried out in such a manner and sequence that erosion and air and water pollution will be minimized and held within legal limits. The completed job shall present a workmanlike appearance and shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the drawings or as staked in the field. All operations shall be carried out in a safe and skillful manner. safety and health regulations shall be observed and appropriate safety measures used. 2 CAP 12/02/1998 08:30 2524823428 USDA —MRCS x �x Ph 0 PAGE 01/01 DEC 2 '99 8e26 2524e2342B PAGE.001 State of North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of -Water Ouality James B.

Shaw: This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an animal waste management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .0217. The information you provided us indicated that your operation's animal population does not exceed the number set forth by 15A NCAC 2H .0217, and therefore does not require registration for a certified animal waste management plan. Under 15A NCAC 2H .0217, your facility is deemed permitted if waste is properly managed and does not reach the surface waters of the state. Any system determined to have an adverse impact on water quality may be required to obtain a waste management plan or an individual permit. You are reminded that a discharge of wastes to the surface waters of the state will subject you to a civil penalty up to $10,000 per day. Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits listed below, you will be required to receive approval from the Division of Water Quality prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold numbers of animals are as follows: Swine 250 Confined Cattle 100 Horses 75 Sheep 1,000 Poultry with a liquid wastes stem 30,000 If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sonya Avant of our staff at (919) 733-5083 ext571.

In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. 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.

During this visit, several items listed belowwere noted requiring immediate attention and clarification. These involve deficiencies to the certified animal waste management plan that this facility operates under as a deemed permitted facility pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217 and North Carolina G.S.143215.1. 1) Facility is inaccurately certified for the number of animals present at this facility. The Division of Water Quality's Central office has this facility certified as a 500 Farrow -to -Finish operation. However, this facility has been retrofitted to a capacity for 7680 Wean -to -Feeder animals. Please obtain a new, fully completed animal waste certification for the entire facility from a Technical Specialist and contact Sonya Avant at (919) 733-5083 Ext. 571 for instructions on correcting this situation. 2) Failure To Have Components of CAWMP During the inspection it was observed that you failed to have the following components of your certified animal waste management plan: lagoon closure reports and new lagoon design. Checklists Lagoon Designs, Irrigation Design, Site Ma s -- A copy of odor/mortality/etc. checklists, lagoon design(s), irrigation designAayout, and site aerial maps/photos of all spray fields listed in waste utilization plan are required to be on -site as part of your certified animal waste management plan. 127 North Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 29405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 _ An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Mr. Lewis Shaw March 14, 2000 Page 2 3) Hydraulic Over -Application (Excessive Ponding or Exceeding Application Rates/Amounts) During the inspection it was observed that waste had ponded excessively in the newest bermuda field and runoff occured into the adjacent clear-cut area. Maximum application rates and amounts are clearly indicated in your certified animal waste utilization plan and should never be exceeded. Doing so can potentially threaten groundwater leading to mandatory placement of monitoring wells at your facility by the Groundwater Section of DWQ. It can also be the cause of excessive ponding or run-off from spray fields. These application rates and amounts should be decreased accordingly upon review of field and soil conditions. Appropriate actions must be taken to correct this problem and prevent future instances. Calibration of your irrigation system is highly recommended using the most common ring(s), nozzle(s), or spray heads you utilize to determine appropriate application times or traveler retrieval speed to meet your application goal. To correct these deficiencies, please submit a Plan of Action to the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality that describes the actions to be taken to comply with your certified animal waste management plan. The Plan of Action should include the following: ➢ A list of actions to be taken in correcting each noted deficiency. ➢ A list of any and all modifications needed to ensure there are no future deficiencies. Include a timetable for completion of those modifications. The proposed written Plan of Action must be received by this office within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of this notice. Upon approval and implementation of the plan, you must notify this office when the corrective actions are complete. Contact your Service Company, county Soil & Water district office, or county extension office for any assistance they may be able to provide. If the deficiencies are not corrected, the Division of Water Quality may issue a Notice of Violation and pursue additional actions including civil penalties, injunctive -relief, or revocation of your deemed permitted status. If you have any questions concerning this matter please do not hesitate to contact either Mr. Hunkele or Mr. Mathis of our Wilmington Regional Office at (910)-395-3900 or Mr. Steve Lewis at (919) 733-5083, ext. 539.

These matters arose out of Owner's desire to repopulate his swine farm without first properly closing out the abandoned lagoon on his farm in accordance with Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) Standards. DWQ and Lewis Shaw have reached the following agreement: 1. Lewis Shaw will be allowed to repopulate his facility upon submitting a Certified Animal Waste Management Plan to DWQ and receiving verification from DWQ staff that the plan is complete. z. Lewis Shaw will properly close out the abandoned lagoon on his farm by June 1, 1999. The lagoon will be closed to NRCS standards and will be verified by DWQ staff from the Wilmington Regional Office. 3. Lewis Shaw azrees that unless excused under Number (4) below, Lewis Shaw will pay the Director of DWQ, by check payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, stipulated penalties of $100.00 for the first seven days after June 1, 1999 and $500.00 for each additional day past June 1, 1999 that the lagoon has not been properly closed to NRCS standards. 4. Lewis Shaw and the DWQ agree that stipulated penalties are not due if Lewis Shaw satisfies the DWQ that noncompliance was caused solely by: a. An act of God; b. An act of war; C. An intentional act or omission of a third party, but this defense shall not be available if the act or omission is that of an employee or agent of the defendant or if the act or omission occurs in connection with a contractual relationship with the Lewis Shaw. d. An extraordinary event beyond the Lewis Shaw's control. Contractor delays or failure to obtain funding will not be considered as events beyond the Lewis Shaw's control; or e. Any combination of the above causes. Failure within thirty (30) days of receipt of written demand to pay the penalties, or challenge them by a contested case petition pursuant to G.S. 150B-23, will be grounds for a collection action, which the Attorney General is hereby authorized to initiate. The only issue in such an action will be whether the thirty (30) days has elapsed. 5. That nothing in this Consent Agreement and Settlement shall restrict any right of DWQ to take enforcement action against Lewis Shaw for any violation(s) of the N.C.

PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS This report is being prepared based upon a request for permitting a spray irrigation disposal operation to support an animal facility. In the review of this submittal, the Regional Office has noted several concerns. We submit the following: ' ' ' 1) Due to the past impacts to water quality due to the siting, operation and maintenance of the existing lift station, the facility should include a complete lift station retrofit. Since the lift station is to be placed either partially or wholly below grade. Recommend appropriate "flanges" on station to prevent "floating" of lift station due to settling or any actions of the seasonal water table. The design must include all appropriate float switches and alarm to assure proper operation. 2) If the existing lift station tank is allowed to be used, an appropriate tank integrity test must be performed and a report of findings submitted. Approval for using the existing tank based on this report must be obtained by DWQ prior to the permit becoming valid. The design must include dual pumps and all appropriate float switches and alarm (21-1 .0200 .0219 (h)) to assure proper operation and that a future overflow cannot occur. In addition, recommend the inclusion of a "secondary passive containment" and additional monitoring outlined in the Groundwater Section Memo dated September 30,A998 (attached). 3) The irrigation systems and collection system must be installed and fully functional prior to any operation of this facility. A demonstration of the completed system must be provided prior to the permit becoming valid. 4) The lagoon design does not contain a sludge storage volume. In addition, the submittal does not contain an acceptable residuals disposal plan. Recommend it's inclusion. S) Freeboard requirement should be a minimum of 2.0 feet. 6) Recommend that the system design contain a flow measuring device. 7) Recommend enforcement of the stand-by power requirement. 8) Inclusion of monitoring requirements as recommended by the Division of Water Quality Groundwater Section Memo dated September 30, 1998. (attached) 9) Waste Plan to include the current Realistic Yield Expectations (R.Y.E.) for the crops used until actual yield data provides a basis for revision. The R.Y.E. given appears to be a carry over from the existing W.U.P. prior to the most recent guidelines. FINAL RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Nondischarge Permit Number: AWI670020 be issued to K & J Weston Farm for the operation of a spray irrigation disposal facility once the above concerns have been addressed to the satisfaction of the Division and a final systems check has been performed. The Wilmington Regional Office requests that it be given the opportunity to review and comment on the permit prior to it's issuance.

Documents that you provided to the Division of Water Quality (Division) show that you would like to retrofit your swine facility and relocate the facility on the same tract of land. The Division has reviewed the documentation and determined that this relocation may be considered a retrofit under current rules and legislation if the following two (2) conditions are met; 1) that the new facility does not increase beyond what was registered with the Division, and 2.) that the existing facility is completely closed according to NRCS standards. The existing facility was registered with the Division for 500 sow, farrow to finish. The retrofitted animal waste management system must also be designed and constructed in accordance with current NRCS standards. The Division recommends that where ever possible the new facility meet current setback criteria. You should be aware that the Division of Water Quality was not authorized to administer provisions of the Swine Farm Siting Act, which gives certain rights and protections to persons owning property directly affected by its setbacks. The interpretation given above reflects the Division policies for administering our permitting program. If you have questions regarding the Swine Farm Siting Act and neighboring properties, you should consider consulting private legal counsel.

Your questions were can you restock the facility without increasing the steady state live weight under the current regulations, and if so, do you have to notify the public of the restocking. The current Swine Farm Moratorium applies to new and expanding swine farms. This facility would not be considered new or expanding unless it has been inactive for more than four years, or you increase the animal waste management system beyond what the system was registered. The current Swine Farm Siting Act, which requires notification to neighbors and county officials, applies to new or expanding animal waste management systems. Again, your facility would not be considered new or expanding unless it has been inactive for more than four years, or you increase the animal waste management system beyond what the system was registered. Should you wish to restock this facility at its registered capacity, you must first obtain a certified animal waste management plan. The plan must be submitted with the enclosed "Request for Reactivation Form." The Division of Water Quality will review the documentation and notify you in writing when you may restock the facility.

It was observed that the lagoons had insufficient freeboard. In addition, evidence indicates that lagoon number two is experiencing a seep failure along the toe of the dike structure. The hog houses have been undermined by vermin and storm water runoff resulting in severe cracks in the foundations. USDA-NRCS guidelines require a minimum of one foot and seven inches of freeboard. This is based on the amount of storage space needed to contain a 25-year, 24 hour design storm event without a discharge. NRCS requirements also specify that animal waste shall be applied on actively, growing crops. And that waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop on bare soil. The level of your waste lagoon needs to be lowered and maintained in accordance with the NRCS guidelines and the state 2H .0200 rules governing animal waste management systems. The integrity of the lagoon and house structures will need to verified and certified by a licenced Professional Engineer. This stamped certification must be included in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In addition, the area in which a portion of the 127 North Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recyded/10% post -consumer paper Lewis Shaw December 10, 1997 Page 2. lagoon was removed will need to have any remaining sludge extracted and an acceptable vegetative cover established as soon as possible. This is to minimize impacts to surface waters by storm water runoff from this area. We suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation. To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within fourteen (14) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste management plan. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status, requiring it to obtain an individual non discharge permit. Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per violation. When the required corrective actions are complete, please notify this office in writing at the address below. If you have any questions concerning this matter, I may be reached at 910- 395-3900.

Shaw Shaw Farms 484 Huffmantown Rd Richlands NC 28574 SUBJECT: Operator In Charge Designation Facility: Shaw Farms Facility ID#: 67-62 Onslow County Dear Mr. Shaw: Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly, requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H .0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty. If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office. Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this rec uirement please call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 91gn33-0026. Sincerely A.

Richlands NC 28574 Dear Mr. Shaw: This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), Water Quality Section. On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters of the state. The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain minimum criteria are met (15A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted. We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993 and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form to DEM by December 31, 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must obtain signed certification before animals are stocked on the farm. Certification of an approved animal waste management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water Conservation Commission adopts rules later this year. We appreciate you providing us with this information. If you have any question about the new nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at.(919) 733-5083.
