Planned Crops Summary
Miller Farm
The table shown below provides a summary of the crops or rotations included in the plan for each field. Realistic Yield estimates
and Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) recommendations are also provided for each crop as well as the crop's P205 Removal
Rate. The Leaching Index (LI) and the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) Rating are also provided for each field,
where available.
If a filed's PLAT Rating is High, any planned manure application is limited to the phosphorous removal rate of the harvested
plant biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. Fields with a Very High PLAT Rating should receive
no additional applications of manure. Regardless of the PLAT rating starter fertilizers may be recommended in accordance with
North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. The quantity of P205 applied to each crop is shown in the
following table if the field's PLAT rating is High or Very High.

Waste Utilization Table
Miller Farm
The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient
requirements, and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure
or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each
field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure
applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

Type of Plan: Nutrient Management with Closure Cleanout Only
Narrative:
This Nutrient Management Plan was written in order to close the Waste Storage Pond of the Miller
Family Dairy, Facility 80-14, located on Weaver Road in southern Rowan County and managed by
Robert and Mike Miller. Existing Waste Storage Pond was constructed for a 200 cow herd with a
storage of 180 days. Waste liquid and sludge was sampled from the pond on May 15, 2018, and
sent to NCDA for analysis, and the results used in the development of this closure plan. Soil
samples for the application fields were also gathered by the producer on May 12, 2018, and sent to
NCDA for analysis, and those results used in the development of this plan. Upon site visit on May
09, 2018, Chris Sloop and Michael Shepherd of the NCDA Division of Soil and Water performed a
liquid and sludge survey of the pond, and determined that there was approximately 6 feet of liquid
in the structure, and approximately 3.1 feet of sludge in th bottom. THis equates to approximately
510,000 total gallons of waste in the pond at the time of sampling. This closure plan is written to
dicument that there is enough application acres available on teh farm in order to apply the waste
contained in the WSP at agronomic rates in order to close the structure. The Miller Family farm
sold all cows in 2015, and there have been no animals on the property since. They also have no
plans to bring animals back to the property in the foreseeable future.
Robert tells me that they intend to contract the removal of waste from the structure by a NC
Certified Applicator, and apply the waste to their crop fields of Tract 19016 of Rowan County.
NCACSP funds are to be contracted in order to apply the waste and close the Waste Storage
Structure.

Soil Metal Indices
Miller Farm
Lagoon sludge often contains high concentrations of zinc and copper. High levels of these metals in soils can adversely affect plant growth. The following table
provides a conservative(maximum potential) estimate for increase in soil index values.* Due to inherit variability of waste and soil sampling, it is
recommended that conservative soil target levels be set for copper (e.g. Cu-I < 700-1000) and zinc (e.g. Zn=I < 300 for land where peanuts may be grown; for
other cropland Zn-I < 700-1000). Alternative application sites should be selected if the following table indicates that concentrations of these metals may
approach excessive levels. For maximum copper and zinc soil index limits, see the NRCS Nutrient Management Standard (Code 590).

kequired Soil Test Values
Miller Farm
The Required Soil Test Values shown in the following table provide a summary of recommended actions that
should be taken based off information provided at time of soil tests. Fields that receive manure must have a soil
analysis conducted at least once every three years. High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant
growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels.
Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in Ibs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071,
respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85. By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc,
we can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each
crop based on the first crop listed on the most recent soil sample. Application of lime at recommended rates is
necessary to maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production. If the first crop or rotation changes,
these recommendations may need to be reevaluated to ensure optimal ranges ofr crop production are
maintained.

Waste Storage Pond Closure for Miller Farm, Facility 80-14
The Rowan Soil and Water Conservation District wishes to close the Waste Storage Pond on the
Miller Farm, Facility 80-14.
• The District has verified that the system is not under any active maintenance
requirements for an ACSP contract.
• The WSP is being maintained. However, much of the acreage contained in the wettable
acres of the Waste Utilization Plan have been converted to fresh vegetable produce, and
are no longer available for application of waste. Therefore, it is the technical opinion of
the District that the impoundment should be closed in order to prevent a discharge
should the level get into the freeboard stage, such as a hurricane event, and acreage is
not immediately available for pumping application.
• The dairy animals were sold in August of 2015, so the WSP has been inactive since that
time.
• The last NOV for the farm on file is September 30, 2010, so there are no current
violations.
• The WSP is located in the Sloans Creek Watershed of Rowan County, part of the Yadkin-
Peedee Watershed.
• Receiving waters are Little Creek to Sloans Creek to the Yadkin River.
• Volume of the pond is 663,620 gallons, and current volume is 510,000 gallons of liquid
slurry at the time of contracting.
• There are two contractors available to the District/producer in Rowan County. Scott
Souther, and Johnny Moore.
• Estimates are pending response from the hauling contractors. Waste is to be removed
using honey wagons supplied by the waste application contractor. Pond is to agitated to
the best of the contractor's ability, and waste hauled approximately % to % mile across
Weaver Road to row crop fields owned by the producer. Most likely timeline will be
early to late Fall of 2018, and applied to fields planted to wheat. Pumping and irrigation
application is impractical at this time due to wettable acres being converted to
vegetable produce.
• Surface area of WSP are 117' x 117', or 13,689square feet, or 0.31 acres.
• See attached drawing of dam profile, and proposed plan for breach. Producer will
remove entire dam, and use the soil to fill the pond and shape the area for positive
drainage.
• See attached signed NC-ACSP-1C for no confined animal operation intentions.
• See attached signed Closure plan.

• Closure Plan has been prepared, and reviewed and signed by Michael Shepherd, Division
Environmental Senior Specialist. Pipes from milking parlor are to be removed at time of
excavation/cleanout, and inlets filled with concrete. Current soil samples have been
pulled, and results obtained for utilization in the Closure Plan. Waste application and
closure plan evaluate zinc and copper soil levels, as well as Nitrogen uptake by the
planned crops, and all fall within agronomically acceptable levels.
• ACSP funds will used to apply the waste, clean the bottom of the WSP to original
elevations documented on the original WSP drawings. The dam will be notched and
side slopes eased off to facilitate positive drainage. Any further earth moving is to be at
producers' expense. The producer does intend to fully remove the dam, and use the soil
to fill the hole in order to shape the area so that it is usable in the future. There should
be no foreign material contained in the structure, but the producer understands that
removal of such foreign material will be at his cost.
• Dam will be notched at minimum, and likely removed. Disturbed areas will vegetated
with fescue according to Critical Area Planting specifications.
• Lowest bid will be used for NCACSP contracting, for both Waste application and earth
moving activities. Waste samples and soil samples for application fields have been
submitted and results obtained at the time of contracting. Zero animals are on the farm
at this time.
