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. Animal operations that generate liquid waste and utilize waste storage facilities (lagoons or holding ponds) may apply more or
less waste in any given year than is annually generated by the facility. In order to determine whether the plan adequately utilizes the waste produced by the facility,
the storage capacity table included in this plan should be reviewed to ensure that the design capacity of the storage facility is not exceeded during the planning
period.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being
utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to
balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal
waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table.
Infiltration rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply
at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour that may
be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum application amount that
each field may receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application
rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be
a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage
capacity available at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start
date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in
the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage
capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If
available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design
storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval
in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
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.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or 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 the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications 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 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).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. 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).
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
218772 Database Version 1.06 Date Printed: 11-08-2001 Specification Page 1

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 odor and flies.
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. Nutrients from waste 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 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 canal. Animal
waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,
1995, shall not be applied closer that 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 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 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
218772 Database Version 1.06 Date Printed: 11-08-2001 Specification Page 2

o.
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.
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
218772 Database Version 1.06 Date Printed: 11-08-2001 Specification Page 3

waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils 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.

rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial
seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and rye at 1-1
1/2 bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review
the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at
planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time. The
remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 5A, 5B
Bermudagrass CP, Mineral Soil, Poorly Drained to Somewhat Poorly Drained.
Adaptation: Effective artificial drainage MUST be in place to achieve Realistic Yield Expectations
provided for these soils.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and
wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a
rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing
conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced 1' to 1.5' in row.
For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in
the establishment year in split applications in April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 240
lb/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts.
Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of
Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional agronomist or
extension agent for assistance.

Updated Crop Management Practices for Bermuda Winter Overseed
This document, as approved by the Interagency Nutrient Management Committee on
October 10, 2017, hereby modified the July 13, 1998 Memorandum "Crop Management
Practices for Select Forages Used in Waste Management". This modification updates
the application window protocol for the 100 lb Nitrogen PAN rate for both Cereal Rye
and Annual Ryegrass, as well as winter small grains.
• Farms utilizing the 100 lbs./ac PAN rate for the overseed are allowed to apply no
more than 50 Ibslac PAN from October 1 through December 31 and no more than
50 lbs./ac PAN from January 1 through March 31.
• Applications made during the months of December and January cannot exceed the
combined total of 25 lbs./ac PAN for the two -month period.
• The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda crop prior to
September 30.
• The PAN rate for grazed systems must be reduced by 25%.
All other requirements of the July 13, 1998 Memorandum continue to apply. Those
requirements include but are not limited to:
• Cereal rye and annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best
opportunity to get winter growth.
• A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, whichever comes first, for both
cereal rye and annual ryegrass. This is necessary to minimize the potential for
shading of emerging bermuda and reducing its yield. To favor the production of
bermuda, additional harvest of annual ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass
canopy reaches 12-15 inches height.
•
These management requirements shall also apply to overseeded winter small grain.

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 flows 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. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create.a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that
caused the runoff.'
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields
where runoff occurred.

El
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 El Any method which, in the professional opinion of the State Veterinarian, would make 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).
ElMass 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.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with minimum
odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be reached
(permanent + temporary storage) may vary due to soil conditions, flushing
operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system.
The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume based on:
1) waste from animals
2) excess rainfall after evaporation
and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the average
of once every 25 years.
Page 1
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly
constant throughout the year and from year to year.
This estimate is based on 7.0 inches of excess rainfall which is equal
to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in a year. The average annual excess
rainfall is approximately 8 inches. Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess
rainfall will need to be pumped each year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a
factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must
always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from the building(s).
If the outlet pipe is not installed on the elevation to begin pumping, a
permanent marker must be installed on this elevation to indicate when pumping
should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain the
minimum treatment depth of 6 feet.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations
for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils,
crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of
disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot guns and
traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to
prevent damage to crops.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN (continued)
The following items are to be carried out:
Page 2
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be precharged to 1/2
of its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start—up. Precharging
reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon, thereby
reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When
precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water
should not be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches elevation 48.7 feet
as marked by the permanent marker.
Stop pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches elevation 46.9 feet
or before the fluid depth is less than 6.1 feet deep (this prevents
the loss of favorable bacteria).
The designed temporary storage volume less the 25 year — 24 hour
storm volume is 33,388 cubic feet or 249,743 gallons.
As stated before, this volume will vary considerably from year to year.
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch
and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed
annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization
fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches.
Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters
of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health and Natural
Resources, Division of Environmental Management, has the responsibility
for enforcing this law.
