The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which 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 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

This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
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 bermuda), 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 reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
with 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 cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

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 374.4 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 1872 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 6 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 14.976 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
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 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
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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.
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 Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the
number of animals, method of application, recieving crop type, or available land.
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.
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 Tess
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).
Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application
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).
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.
Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when

(continued)
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 than 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.
Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
14 ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands
by 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.

(continued)
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.
Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
19 regular basis to prevent breakdowns, Teaks and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.
Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
20 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.
Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
21 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.
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-
22 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 soil 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.

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) 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 cause the runoff.
e) 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.
1 12/12/2007

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, and 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 undertaken 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
c . Contractors Phone: [phone]
6. Contact the technical specialist who certified the lagoon (NRCS, Consulting Engineer, etc.)
a. Name: Kraig Westerbeek
b. Phone: (910) 293 - 5330
7. 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.

Mortality Management Methods
Indicate which method(s) will be implemented.
When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option.
Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
El El
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.S1 006-403). The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high Water table. Attach burial location map and plan.
Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC
13B .0200.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7.
Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
A composting system approved and permitted by the NC Department of Agriculture & Con-
sume Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off -farm,
additi nal requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ.
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).
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
wnen 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
w (ste 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.

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 filling or another means of slowing the incomingwater

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 occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
b. 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,

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,

Hire a custom applicator,
• Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation stono nearby c
and soil incorporate, cropland;
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
iffent
nutrient and metal values from the liquid, The application of the sludge to dfiieldsewill 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 phosphorus, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the Drop 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,
