Location: Hwy 115 N., right on Bailey Farm Rd., on right
Telephone: 704-876-3689
Type Operation: Dairy
Number of Animals: 150
(Design Capacity)
Storage Structure(s): Dry Stack and Waste Storage Pond
Application Method(s):Dry Haul and Solid -set 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. You must have the animal waste
analyzed to determine nutrient content as close to the time of application as practical and at least
within 60 days of the date of application before each application cycle. Soil nutrients in all fields
where waste will be applied must be analyzed at least annually so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil test and waste analysis records shall be
kept for five (5) years.
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. Lime
must be applied to application fields as recommended by soil test to maintain the
plant uptake of nutrients.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per
year. With special precautions, (see Required Specification No. 4) waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year
7
2/1/02
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is a
violation of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) .0200
regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for
pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop. Otherwise apply waste
no earlier than 30 days prior to planting a crop or prior to forages breaking
dormancy. Injecting or otherwise incorporating the waste below the soil surface
will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where waste is applied shall be
monitored and alternative application fields shall be used when these metals
approach excess levels.
This plan is based on waste application by _Hauling and Irrigation
this is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose hoose to od(s) ofaalter theplicatio
for
method(s) of application in the future, you need orevise this plan. Nutrient levels for various
waste application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
Dairy_ (type operation) systems in North Carolina. Actual acreage requirements shall be based
on waste analysis reports from storage structures in your waste management system. Attached you
will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to
the lab for analysis.
Your _Dry Stack & WSP_ (storage structure) is designed for 60 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every TWO MONTMIS: If your
facility is unroofed, in no instance should the volume of waste being stored in your structure be
higher than the maximum storage marker except in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the
waste.
The waste management system which is covered by this waste utilization plan shall be operated
only by persons which hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of an animal waste
management system. The North Carolina Water Quality Commission will provide training and
certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality Commission.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Total animal waste and waste water volume generated in one year
is approximately 648 tons and
712,275 gallons or 26.2 acre -inches.
2,786 lbs. PAN per year from solid waste
+ 377 lbs. PAN per year from liquid waste
= 3,163 Total lbs. PAN per year
Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should plan time and
have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
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.
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the infiltration 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 amc_urit-should
not exceed the available' water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation not should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is
installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in tables 1 through 3. Failure to apply the
recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress condition. Nitrate
poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended.

WASTE_ APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the Waste Application Tables that follow are available for waste
application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to apply waste to each of these
fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen (N)
requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of the soil and assuming
no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can be reasonably
applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using animal waste alone. It will not
be practical to meet 'all the nutrient needs of some crops with animal waste. Supplemental
applications of commercial fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet
all crop nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the total annual
nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each field on the
Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Your facility will handle 60 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on
the average of once every TWO MONTHS. In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
your structure exceed Elevation 81.50 which is marked by the outlet of the drainpipe from the parlor
and catch basin.
The amount of wastewater contained in the storage pond for one storage period is 94,887 gallons. The
SOLID SET SYSTEM has a flow rate of approximately 122.5 gal/min, which utilizes seven sprinkler
heads. This equates to 7,350 gallons per hour.
Technical Guide Section IIG, Irrigation Guide, recommends an application amount of 1.6 inches with a
maximum rate of 0.40 in/hr. A rate of 1.0 inch will be used. There are two lateral lines with fourteen
(14) outlets per line with seven sprinklers used at time. This set of sprinklers covers approximately one
acre.
With one set covering one acre you have:
(1 ac.)(1.6in.) = 1.6 ac.in.
(1.6ac.in.)(27,154gal/ac.in.) = 43,446 gals/application

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
(Continued)
As shown there is more than enough land area to apply the waste at agronomic rates. Given this the
operator has a better option to rotate his applications to the locations that meet the needs of his
operation.
The waste from the Dry Stack Facility will be emptied by front loader and loaded into a flail -type
spreader with a capacity of five (5) tons. It will then be spread on pasture/hay land starting with fields
closest to the barn. It will be applied at a rate of approximately three (3) loads to the acre. With the
given analysis this rate will only be applying 65.7 lbs of nitrogen per acre. The remainder will need to
be met by some other means.
The Amount of PAN in the Liquid Wastewater Storage Pond was figured using Waste Analysis
Reports from the last three years and averaged as per NCCES guidelines.

WASTE. UTILIZATION PLAN
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.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has a notarized long term 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 NRCS with a copy of a notarized
agreement (sample enclosed) 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. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic
yield tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or 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 DWQ. fSee FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strips
and Standard 392 - Riparian Forest Buffer.,
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists
which may cause a 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
cropsor 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 Technical ReLerence - Environment file for guidance}
24 2/1 /02
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 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 damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is being surface
applied. Surface broadcast solids or slurries may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent
of the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted,
low nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquids holding structure.
Where crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot
assimilate the nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to
occur. 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 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. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application
at lower rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop
production & reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking
dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
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 surface
water. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 392 - Riparian Forest
Buffer)
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.
25 2/1/02
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior
converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways
which discharge directly into water courses. If animal waste is to be applied on
other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and in a manner
that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks,
etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed
areas (lagoon/holding pond 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/holding pond areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/holding
pond 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 an "approved 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 season.
21. Highly visible permanent 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.

annually 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.
Soil 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 NC regulations. North

Mortality Management Methods
Indicate which method(s) will be implemented.
When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option.
Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
❑ 7 Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours of knowledge of animal
death. The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public body of water
(G.S.106-403). The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high water table. Attach burial location map and plan.
❑ El
Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC
13B .0200.
n❑ Rendering Pt a rendering plant licensed under C.S. 10G-166.7.
❑ ❑ Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
El ❑ A composting system approved and permitted by .the NC Department of Agriculture & Con-
sumer Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off -farm,
additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ.
❑ El In the case of dead poultry only, placing in a disposal pit of a size and design approved by the
NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (G.S. 106-549.70).
❑ El Any method which, in the professional opinioniof the State Veterinarian, wouldmake possible
the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or animal health.
(Written approval by the State Veterinarian must be attached).
Mass Mortality Plan
Mass mortality plans are required for farms covered by an NPDES permit. These plans are
also recommended for all animal operations. This plan outlines farm -specific mortality man-
agement methods to be used for mass mortality. The NCDA&CS Veterinary Division sup-
ports a variety of emergency mortality disposal options; contact the Division for guidance.
• A catastrophic mortality disposal plan is part of the facility's CAWMP and is activated
when numbers of dead animals exceed normal mortality rates as specified by the State
Veterinarian.
• Burial must be,done in accordance with NC General Statutes and NCDA&CS Veterinary
Division regulations and guidance.
• Mass burial sites are subject to additional permit conditions (refer to facility's animal
waste management system permit).
• In the event of imminent threat of a disease emergency, the State Veterinarian may enact
additional temporary procedures or measures for disposal according to G.S. 106-399.4.

VIII. Operation and Maintenance Requirements
The waste management system will keep pollutants out of
the streams and rivers if the 25 yr -24 hr storage capacity
is maintained in the waste storage ponds and diversions for
clean water and polluted runoff are maintained around the
system.
Before the waste storage pond reaches the high level
mark set at each pond, the storage pond shall be emptied. A
post will be set with its top at this elevation. See pond
design computations above for each pond high level
elevation.
Vegetation around the waste storage pond shall be mowed
annually and eroded areas patched. Fencing shall be checked
and repaired as required.
