(Design Capacity)
Animal waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater.
Plant nutrients in animal waste should be used to reduce amounts of commercial fertilizer required for crops (in
the fields where the waste is 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 fertilizer value of
animal waste; and, to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1). Always apply waste based on crop needs and nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen.
than the crop can utilize.
2). Soil types are important...they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3). Normally waste shall not be applied to land erodingat greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year.
4). Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the soil surface is frozen. Any of
these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under NCDWQ regulations.
5). Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
6). To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should
be applied to a growing crop, to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting, or, to a forage within
30 days of breaking dormancy. Injecting waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor
problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown. Nutrient levels for different application methods are
not the same; therefore, changing application methods in the future will require a change or revision of this plan.
Estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of opera-
tion. Actual acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management
facility. In some cases a plant analysis may be beneficial- and, allow additional waste to be applied. The land
area receiving waste should be flexible enough to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for the crop being managed and grown.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217
adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

and perimeter areas where waste cannot be applied or equipment limitations may preclude full application
rates. Actual field acreage may, and likely will be, more than acres shown in the tables.
See the attached map(s) showing fields referenced in these tables.
The producer and waste applicator are responsible for ensuring that spreader (or irrigation) equipment
is calibrated, operated properly, and applies the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure
to apply recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may invalidate this plan.
Important information for Application of Liquid Animal Waste
Refer to Waste Storage Facility Design/"As Built" Drawings or OEM Plan for amount of temporary
storage time, start pumping elevation & stop pumping elevation.
Irrigation/application rates should not exceed the intake rate for the soil at the time of irrigation...or runoff and ponding can occur.
The irrigation/application rate is controlled by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, irrigation 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 (PAN) applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
The producer and irrigation designer is responsible for ensuring that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate animal
waste on the acres shown in Tables 1 & 2. Failure to apply recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables
may invalidate this plan. Application of liquid waste by other methods (honey -wagon, etc.) is the responsibility of the producer.

270 lbs. N 320 lbs. N
1350 lbs. N 1598 lbs. N
Based on a 5 year sludge removal schedule. estimated land area required for sludge disposal is:
7.5 acres of grass based on an application rate of 180 lbs. N per acre
20.0 acres of corn/soybeans based on an application rate of 80 lbs. N per acre
All the above figures are only estimates. Actual. PAN and land area needed could vary 25% or more depending
on sludge nutrient analysis, soil types. crop. realistic yield. and application method. Likewise. sludge
disposal on a schedule other than every 5 years would drastically alter these estimates

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
•
Required Specifications
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica-
tion or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water
is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use
of adequate land 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 a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity,
allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an
updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation....such as increased animal numbers,
method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization.
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 of other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
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 Strips].
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied
when the wind is blowing.
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 & Climate in North Carolina" in
NRCS Field Office Technical Reference File - ENVIRONMENT 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...to control odor and flies.
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. 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. Waste shall not be applied to crops more than 30 days prior to
planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: Waste application
cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary; a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch.
For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within
25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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, 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
land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that
discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application causes no run-
off 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.). 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 break-
downs, 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 human consumption it should only be applied preplant 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels 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 is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper
levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall
be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for
5 years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all
other waste shall be kept for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service
Live Oak Farm #1 - OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN UPDATE
nammt
This structure is designed to operate as an anerobic lagoon, with waste treatment and 180 days of temporary
storage. Time required for the fluid level to fill from STOP pump elevation to START pump elevation may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system.
The 180 day temporary storage in this structure consists of: 1.) waste generated by confined animals; and,
2.) excess rainfall after evaporation (5" for Anson County). Additionally the structure can store the 25 year-
24 hour storm (6.3" for Anson County) above the START pump elevation. The volume of waste generated by
3552 confined swine remains fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. Excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall is not considered in the annual pumping cycle...
this volume above the START pump elevation must be maintained and available.
The START pump or maximum normal operating fluid level is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from the
confinement building(s). If the outlet pipe(s) is not installed at the START pump elevation, a permanent
marker must be installed at this elevation. A STOP pump elevation must also be established to maintain
lagoon treatment depth and volume. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations to land apply waste without runoff or leaching, and accommodate weather, soils, crop, equipment,
and management situations.
Land application is an accepted method of liquid waste disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation; honey wagon application is a more labor intensive/time
consuming method. Be careful when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
IMPORTANT ITEMS
1. Fresh water should not be used for flushing...recycle from the anerobic lagoon.
2. The approved waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of
waste prior to land application.
3. START pumping temporary storage when fluid level reaches elevation 98.2 (or before). STOP pumping
when fluid level reaches elevation 96.4. This temporary storage, Tess 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump)
is 38585 cubic feet (288616 gallons) every 180 days....77170 cubic feet (577232 gallons) per year.
4. Refer to the approved Waste Utilization Plan for important information on irrigating liquid waste ---
application rates, maximum application amounts per irrigation and rest period between irrigation.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation
should be fertilized to maintain a vigorous stand. Keep grazing livestock off all embankment areas.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation.
7. Keep all surface runoff diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets.
8. Keep a minimum 25 foot buffer area around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Do
not apply waste in open ditches or water courses, within 100 feet of a well or within 200 feet of a residence
9. Maintain a copy of the approved Waste Management Plan on farm (or at the confined animal facility)
at all times. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United
States. The NC Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources- Division of Water Quality
is the responsible for enforcing this law.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change
over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends
to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an
increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the
wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will
alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application
uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller
droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging
of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines
will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the
coverage diameter and application uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to ensure
proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is
recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in
the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and
determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a
graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform
additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform
opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily
transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout the
application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers
should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out
collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You
should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On a
windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for concern.
You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage
levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is
dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as a
thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means that at the first sign of plant growth in the
later winter / early spring, irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done
whenever the land in dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in
the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer / early fall the lagoon should be pumped down
to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste utilization
plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigated does
not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. Overflow from the lagoon for
any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam. Fescue or common bermudagrass
are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each
year, if needed, to maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilized applied
should be based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain a
soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas should be
fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by
mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of these practices. This
should be done at least once a year and possibly twice in years that weather
conditions are favorable for heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter the lagoon
water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon
and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be checked should include,
as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes -- look for:
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes
2

Lagoon surface -- look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment -- look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability -- slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack or vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon
has any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a
threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps -- check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need of repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that
you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your
pumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will
allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is
not the time to think about switching, repairing, or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your
lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an
inventory of spare parts or pumps.
• Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface drainage
waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot
runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste treatment or storage
structures. The only water that should be coming from your lagoon is that
which comes from your flushing (washing) system pipes and the rainfall that
hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system for the
following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
3

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an overflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into
the lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste
loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the
pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial filling or another
means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize bacterial
establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon liquid
volume. This seeding should occur at least two weeks prior to the addition of
wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below 7.0, add
agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume
until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological
activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these
conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily
are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are
drained and recharged each day, also work well.
4

• Practice water conservation --- minimize building water usage and spillage from
leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and water
conservation.
• Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This will reduce the
amount of solids entering the lagoon.
Management:
• Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full
temporary storage level.
• Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level
and the maximum liquid level. (Figure 2-1).
• Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient
requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the
summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer / early fall to
provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter.
• The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the
dam or embankment.
• Don not pump the lagoon liquid level lower than the permanent storage level unless
you are removing sludge.
• Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and
as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
• Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded
feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
• Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
• Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
• Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
• Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or
before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
• If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:
5

• proper lagoon sizing,
• mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
• gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
• minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
• have more nutrients,
• have more odor, and
• require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
• Hire a custom applicator.
• Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper - agitator impeller pump through large -
bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix
remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or
forageland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland;
dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm an area beside lagoon
to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to
dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or forageland; and soil
incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage.
Close attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner
remains intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you
should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can
be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus and
metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of erosion.
Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphors, it should be
applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes,
always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
6

The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors.
Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure.
Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of
the dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
• Modification of the lagoon structure -- an example is the placement of a pipe in the dam
without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design before
placing any pipes in dams.)
• Lagoon liquid levels -- high levels are a safety risk.
• Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
• Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
• Liner integrity -- protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or
rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large
discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location
for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested
responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow - possible solutions are:
a) Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b) Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
c) Stop all flow to the lagoon immediately.
d) Call a pumping contractor.
e) Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
B. Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
Immediately stop waste application.
Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that cause the runoff.
Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers - action include:
a) Stop recycle pump.
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
d) Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D. Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators - action include:
a) Stop recycle pump.
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Make sure siphon occurs.
d) Stop all flow in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -
possible action:
a) Dig a small sump or ditch from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in a submersible
pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b) If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and
compact with a clay type soil.
c) Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and the lagoon bottom as soon
as possible.
8

2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage notes, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours call your DWQ regional office; Phone #, After hours,
emergency number: [phone]. Your phone call should include: your name, facility
number, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2 above, the exact
location of the facility, the location or direction of the movement of the spill, weather and
wind conditions. The corrective measures that have been under taken, and the
seriousness of the situation.
b. If the spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS phone number.
c. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department.
d. Contact CE's phone number, local SWCD office phone number and the local NRCS
office for advice / technical assistance phone number.
4. If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your problem to
them and ask the person to contact the proper agencies for you.
5. Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair or problem to minimize offsite damage.
a. Contractors Name: Murphy Brown LLC
b. Contractors Address: P.O. Box 856 Warsaw, NC 28398
