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. 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 waste, he/she shall provide a copy 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 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, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application 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 that .is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per.:y:ear providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff..leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard;>393 -Filter Strip) 5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste..application. ;Waste should not be applied when there' is dange. of" drift from "the "irrigation field. .When. animal,••waste is to be applied on. acres subject to flooding, it wili:.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 and:Climate in North Carolina" 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 in order to control odor or 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. Page: 8 7grirffillir"" Jam WASTE UTILIZATION PL it REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 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 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 perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 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 otherproperty 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.appljed.to prior converted cropland provided theyhave been approveas.'a land application site by a "technical specialist"...:•:Animal waste shall' not be applied on grassed waterways that d5•charges 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 washdowri facilities, showers, toilets, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management ustem. 17.. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Arcas 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. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PfrN RE UIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 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 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.

DESIGNED BY: ,=.5;4/f 6 4 APPROVED DATE: //-72-9( 1'isee.) 7-7 92_ DATE: //-/2-9/ �✓� / %%yZ NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Animal waste lagoons are designed with permanent storage (waste treatment volume) and temporary storage. The designed 6 month temporary storage is ar 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. The volume of waste generated from'a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. The excess rainfall will vary greatly during the year and from year toi year. This estimate is based on 7 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 0 inches. Therefore, an average of 3 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 from 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. After initial filling of lagoon, a minimum 6 feet depth must be maintained for aner.obic treatment of waste. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain the minimum treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped anytime between these two elevations for operating convenience so Tong as site conditions perrni:t (conditions are weather, soil, crop, and equipment to apply waste to prevent runoff or leaching). or this lagoon the maximum elevation to begir ; mring is -044a15 feet and the minimum elevation, to pump t feet. The design 5 Y storage, less 25 year storm, is r 7% 706' cubic feet or "jgallons. As stated before, this volume wi 1 l vary considerably frorn year to year. This lagoon is designed to flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid, and fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. i OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLA* This lagoon is designed for waste trea.ment with m|pimum 000r control. The time required for the planned fluid /evel to be reached may vary cue to soil coodit�ons,f�usn�nS operations, and the amount of fresh water addeo to the syszem. Lanc application of waste w,ter is recognized as an acceptable method of disposa|. Methods of application include solid set, center plvot, guns, and traveling Sun irri8ar|on. Care should be taxen when appiyinS waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: I.
