This plan does not include lcommercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not toilet small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (Le.
April or May). Shading Mai result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yielftand less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you ate encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay orl silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted tin the fall.
The ideal time to interplant, small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

The waste utilization plan mutt 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 n trients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 3329.28 poun s of plant available nitrogen per year and will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
if you remove the sludge eve i 5 years, you will have approximately 16846.4 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Zssuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogep per acre, you will need 55 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 133.1712 acres of land. ;Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated I for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE 9Y 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
pl,int available nitrogen
If surface irrigation is the m,

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

crop yields based u0on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions,
and level of manage' ent, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications
for other nutrients.
Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to lag' d eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons
per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field
(See USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied. when there is danger of drift from the land "application field.
When animal waste Is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offMte or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in'order to control odor and
flies.
I
I
Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

l
NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not
covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from
animal waste should also be considered.
10 Nutrients from waste jshall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a
high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The
outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste Is applied from a lagoon that Is a component of
a swine farm shall bey at least 50 feet from any residential property' boundary and canal. Animal
waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings ether than those owned by
the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge
or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields
have been approved ;as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not
be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be
discharged into the animal waste management system.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon
embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the
vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas
where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and
structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18 If animal production !,at the facility is to be suspended or terminated; the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal
discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be Inspected on a regular basis to
prevent breakdowns,, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used In a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human
consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should
only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary
storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested, within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop
sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless
other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate thania nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels In the soil shall be monitored
and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be
adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be
kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a
minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a
minimum of five years.
23 Dead animals will be :disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

subsequent amendments, or equivalent regional or state rainfall probability information developed
therefrom.
Agronomic rates mean the amount of animal waste and/or other nutrient sources to be applied to
meet the nutrient needs of the crop, but does not overload the soil with nutrients or other
constituents that cause or contribute to a contravention of surface water or groundwater standards,
limit crop growth, or adversely affect soil quality. Nutrient needs of the crop shall be based on
realistic yield expectations (RYE) established for a soil series through published Cooperative
Extension Service bulletins, NRCS publications, county soil surveys, or site: -specific agronomist
reports.
Amendment to the CAWMP means a change and/or addition'to a part(s) of the plan, and requires
that the change and/or addition adhere to current applicable standards. The following are examples
of amendments to the CAWMP:

Permit No. AW1310082
April 12, 2017
• In an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes 25% or less of
the N generated is considered a plan amendment. Additional acreage needed to facilitate the
change in crops and/or cropping pattern is permissible and considered part of the amendment.
• The addition of winter crops and/or interseeded perennial crops are considered amendments to
an existing CAWMP when the operation does not require additional acreage and/or crops for
N utilization, and does not exceed the 25% criteria stated above.
• When a CAWMP cannot meet N utilization requirements due to land lost to irrigation
inefficiency (useable versus total acres), then the CAWMP may be amended to increase
available acreage and/or change the crop for N utilization. This is the only exception to the
25% N criteria for plan revision.
• Inclusions of emergency action plans, and insect, odor and mortality checklists are considered
CAWMP amendments.
• Including additional acreage for land application beyond what is required in the existing
CAWMP is considered a plan amendment.
Animal feeding operation means a lot or facility (other than an aquatic animal production
facility) where the following conditions are met: (i) animals (other than aquatic animals) have
been, are, or will be stabled or confined and fed or maintained for a total of forty-five (45) days or
more in any twelve (12) month period, and (ii) crops, vegetation, forage growth, or post -harvest
residues are not sustained in the normal growing season over any portion of the lot or facility.
Two or more animal feeding operations under common ownership are considered to be a single
animal feeding operation if they adjoin each other, or if they use a common area or system for the
disposal of wastes.
Certification means technical specialist certification of the CAWMP in accordance with the
requirements of 15A NCAC 02T .1304. It is unrelated to terins "Annual Certification" as used in
