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. 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 the 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. 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 more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which A & A Farm could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and the crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

A & A Farm Page 3 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. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and /or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain etc. is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely )nterfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October . Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 219 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 1094 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 4 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake 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 amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity A & A Farm Page 4 of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrrigate the acres shown in tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

Make sure rio siphon effect has been created. d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. 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 to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon. b. If holea are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holea and compact with a clay type soil. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walla and the lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. a. Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? a. 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 of the property)? h. How much reached surface waters? 3. Contact appropriate agencies. e. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality) regional office, at 910-486-1541, after hours, emergency number: 1-800-S5B-0368.

ANIIC - Nov, :r I I, 1996, l'age 2 -SHEET i OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditionss weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage fors (1) waste -from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included. is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste 'generated from a given number .of animals will be fairly constant rthroughout the year and from year to years but excess rainfall will vary from 'year to year. The 25 .year rainfall will not be a factor to cortsider in an annual pumping cycle, but -this storage valuate must always be available. A maximum .elevation is determined in each design tc' begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation.to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation toindicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weathers 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. The following items are to be carried out: 1. -It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to . 1/2 'its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start-up : Pre -charging reduces -the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be co`►ered--.witheffluent 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-.. :+. Begin.temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 48.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluidlevel reaches elevation 48.3 . This temporary storage, -less 25 yr-`24 hr storm, contains 44322 cubic feet or 331524 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 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. S. 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.- Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 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 Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. C� - 1 611 Mortality Management Methods Indicate which method(s) will be implemented. f 4 .-..(,ti � When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option. I Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian. Primary Secondary Routine Mortality 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. CI El ❑o El El El d❑ Version —November 26, 2018 Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC 13B .0200.

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). 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 i additional temporary procedu;essor measures for disposal according to G.S. 106-399.4. 4 -22 Signature of Farm Owner/Manager Date 3/t.;72/// Signature of Technical Specialist Date SCS-CONS-I6 OCTOBER 1974 CONSERVATION PLAN MAP Operator County Ali d ( State Ai C Date 98 Approximate scale / ` _ Conservation District Plan identification , Photo number z Assisted by 5, "aR- r r f C - USDA Soil Conservation Service U.
