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.

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 appl ied 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.

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.

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). ---- -- - - --- --- ----- 908421 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 3/21/2017 Specification Page 1 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 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. 908421 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed:3/21/2017 Specification Page 2 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 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. ----------------------- -- . 908421 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed:3/21/2017 Specification Page 3 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 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 five (5)years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. ----- ----------------- - - - - 908421 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 3/21/2017 Specification Page 4 Crop Notes j The following crop note applies to field(s): 13, 19,21,26,27, SUB-1, SUB-2 Small Grain: CP,Mineral Soil, low-leachable In the Coastal Plain,oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30;and rye from October 15-November 20.

UNI .° —7 « 74- OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN SHEET 1 OF 2 ----------- ------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary st rage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and t mporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weat er, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the ystem. The designed temporary stora a consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and ( ) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 5 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generate from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout t e year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be availa le. A maximum elevation is deteri ained in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of Pipe(s) from building(s) . If the outlet p pe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent m rker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping sho ld 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 i weather, soils, crop, and equipment n order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized method of disposal. g d as an acceptable P 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 recommend that that the treatment lagoon be pre- charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excess ' ve ng start-up. Pre-charging reducesthe concentration oofrthe 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 temporary storage p MP out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 44.5 s marked by permanent marker. Stop pum - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.5 p storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 614591 cubic lfeet morrary 4597142 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum mount 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. 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. 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. SHEET 1 OF 2 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ----------------------- ---------------------------------- FOUNDATION PREPARATION: ----------------------- The foundation area of the 1 goon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stum s, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition wil be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area show d be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and buildi gpad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: ---------------------------- The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over inches nches in diameter, and of er objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreadin equipment or standard tampingroller or other e g Compaction will be considered ade equivalent method. to consolidate to the point t at settlement isl not material is observed NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERSaIN1THEeLINER e. SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impe vious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or m re fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIR ------ ------------------ D THICKNESS SHALL BE 1. 5 ft. ------------------------------ NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDIC TES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable ma�:erial are encountered, they will be.over- excavated below finish grad to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with SCS approved material ie - CL SC ) ' REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIG T ( ION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CIAL SHEET 2 OF 2 Soil liner material shall cone from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to tha moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the line . The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less t an optimum water content during lac The maximum water content re ates to the soil material being too placement. for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Pro er compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and p compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and Moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability is a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, s the efficient construction processing of the comp acted The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure t niformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissi ator ro or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. P ( cks) Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Constructi n Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: -------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross sect on in the plans, cutoff trench shall be determined b observation The final depth of the materials. y ion of the foundation VEGETATION: ----------- All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be. seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommeleriod ded permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Perm anenvegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS -------------------------------- When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum Of 10 feet beyond the outsid toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled arid compacted with good material such as SC, CL, or CH.

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 available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks can happen at any time. 1) Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to problems are listed below: a) Lagoon overflow: • add soil to the berm to increase the elevation of the dam • pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate • stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waterers) • call a pumping contractor • make sure no surface water is entering the lagoon Note: These activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary storage level. b) Runoff from waste application field: • immediately stop waste application • create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field • incorporate waste to reduce further runoff c) Leaking from the waste distribution system: • pipes and sprinklers: * stop recycle (flushing system) pump stop irrigation pump . 30 close valves to eliminate further discharge rJ separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow • flush system, houses, solids separators: stop recycle (flushing system) pump Z stop irrigation pump 03 make sure no siphon effect has been created separate pipes to create an air cap and stop flow d) Leakage from base or sidewall of the lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed to flowing leaks: • dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back into the lagoon • if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals ('17 and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. • other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil. !Vote: For permanent repair measures, lagoon problems require the consultation of an individual experienced in their design and installation. 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? 3) Contact appropriate agencies. a) During normal business hours, call your DWQ regional office: 910/395-3900 . after hours, emergency number. 1/800-662-7956, Your phone call should in your name, facility, telephone number, the details of the incident, the exact location of the facility, and the location or direction of movement.of the spill, weather and wind conditions, what corrective measures have been taken, and the seriousness of the situation. b) If the spill leaves the property or enters surface waters, call the local EMS: 640-6610 c) Instruct EMS to contact the local Health Department: 6 4 0-6 6 17 d) Contact CES: 6 4 0-6 6 0 6 local MRCS office: 6 4 2-2 3 4 8 and your integrator: 4) Implement procedures as advised by DWQ and technical assistance agencies to rectify the damage, repair the system, and reassess the waste management plan to keep problems with release of wastes from happening again. 5) Contact contract pumping and/or irrigation equipment companies: a) b) c) 6) Contact dirt moving and/or heavy equipment companies: a) b) Swine Farm Waste Management Odor Control Checklist Source w - _- Cause -�� -I3M1's to Mit►inlizc ()cl►►r--�-�—� Site S1►ccific Practices Storage tank or • Partial microbial 0 Bottum or midlevel loading basin surfacc decomposition O 'Tank covers • Mixing while filling O Basin surface mats of solids • Agitation when emptying O i'rovcn biological additives or oxidants Settling basin i'artial microbial O Isxtend drainpipe outlets underneath liquid level surface decomposition O Remove settled solids regularly Mixing wliile.�lliiig g y • Agitation when ernptyirig Manure, slurry, or • Agitation when spreading O Soil irijectic►ii of slurry/sludges sludge spreader • Volatile gas emissions O Wash residual manureTrom spreader alter use outlets O Proven biological additives or oxidants Uncovered manure, • Volatile gas emissions while O Soil injection of slurry/sludges slurry,or sludge on drying ❑- Soil incorporation within 48 hours held surfaces O Spread in thin uniform layers for- rapid drying O Proven biological additives or oxidants Dead animals • Carcass decomposition &EriTroper disposition of carcasses Dead animal • Carcass decomposition O Complete covering ()f carcasses in burial pits disposal Arts C7 Proper local ion/cotrstructioil pits I I incinerators • incomplete combustion O Secondary stack burners Standing water • Improper drainage (trade aml landscape such that walrr clr:�ins :rtvay around facilities .

Signature o F ner/ anager Date gnatu a of T is Specialist Date OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN Proper lagoon liquid 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 the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring,irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is 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 to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to maintain the lagoon close to themmimum 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 irrigate 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. LAGOON MAHWENANCE 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 fertilizer 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:Vvegetation 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 ✓ 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 of 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 side walls,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 side wall,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 or repair or replacement. NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you are not completely"surprised"by equipment fadure. 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 neighbors 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 into 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 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 imgation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively,you may have an inflow 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. Practice water conservation--- 'minimize building water usage and spillage from leaking waterers,broken pipes and wash down through proper maintenance and water conservation. 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 lever(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. ✓ Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage level unless you are rI 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: • 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: • fEre 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 forage land;mix remaining sludge;pump into liquid sludge applicator;haul and spread onto cropland or forage land;and soil incorporate. • Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forage land; dredge sludge from lagoon with drag line 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 forage land;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. 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 phosphorus, 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. 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 fafiures 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. J
