The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface -water and/or groundwater. 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

P-18
Page 2
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.

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 interfere 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 2442 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 12209 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming
you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 Ibs/acre you will need 41
acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 Ibs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 98
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

P-18 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.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 limitations. 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 instances should the volume of the waste be 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operate
properly to apply the correct rates 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 have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the
amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste.

This plan will be implemented in the event that waste from your operation are leaking,
overflowing, or running off the 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 response to problems are listed below:
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam, any permanent alteration of the
dam should be approved by a qualified technical specialist.
b. Pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate.
c. Stop all additional flow to the lagoon, hold wastes in the house if possible.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
B. Runoff from wastes application field -action include:
a. Immediately stop wastes application.
b. Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinkler -action includes:
a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close values to eliminate further discharge.
d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D. Leakage from flush system, houses, solids separators -action includes:
a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure no 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 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 sidewalls 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 what duration?
c. Any damage noted, 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 of the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWR (Division of Water Resources)
regional office, at 910-433-3300, after hours, emergency number: 1-800-858-
0368. Your phone call should include: YOUR NAME , FACILITY

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
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 bottomof the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high water table. Attach burial location map and plan.
El Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted. by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC
13B .0200.
- Q - - Rpn.decinsate,rendering4alantlicenertocler
7 El Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
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 isdistributed off -farm,
additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ.
ElEl In the case of dead poultry .only, placing in a disposal pit ofa size and design approved by the
NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (G.S. 106-549.70).
ElEl Any method which, in the professional opinion c.f 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-
portsa 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 with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions,flushinq operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
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 runoff from the field or 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
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B)
before land application.
3. Begin pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva—
tion 97.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump —out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 95.8 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inch 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. 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.

your contractor, and Soil Conservation Service personnel are in agreement
as *to how the waste lagoon is to be,constructed. The Soil Conservation
Service personnel will meet with`'°all concerned parties and walk over the
site to explain all flags and markings. It is important that everyone
understand what is -expected so that final construction meets plans and
specification and the job can be certified for payment (if cost -sharing
is involved).
The pad dimensions and grades are;.the.best estimate. The BUILDER or
CONTRACTOR i s• RESPONSIBLE for final layout and design of the pads. The
Soil Conservation Service personnel will assist in a limited capacity,
as its major concern is the proper design and construction of the waste

The actual amount of material required for pads and dam may vary from the
ND/ GlIG estimates. The design.will attempt to balance cuts and fills as close as
ossible. If additional material is required after construction is complete
By SCS on the lagoon, the contractor and -owner will negotiate on the price and

INSTRUCTIONS
All dams built with technical assistance from the Soil Conservation Service
must have a hazard classification assigned by the person responsible for
approving the design. Most farm ponds, except in borderline cases, can
be classified after a complete field investigation without assuming failure
and making breach studies. This data sheet is to be used for recording
the information obtained through field studies and for documenting the
hazard classification. Where there is a possibility for loss of life or
major property damage from a dam failure, an approved breach routing
procedure is to be used. (Consult with the area engineer.)
Hazard classifications of dams are made by evaluating the possibility
for loss of life and the extent of damage that would result if thedam
should suddenly breach --that is --a section of the dam be suddenly and
completely washed out. It is to be assumed that a wall of water will be
released equal to the height of the dam. This flood wave will be reduced
in height as it moves down the flood plain. The wave height (depth of
flooding) should be evaluated for a sufficient distance downstream until
the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements,
such as homes, buildings, roads, utilities, reservoirs, etc. The breach
flood level will be reduced depending on the valley storage, slope, and
openess of the flood plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes
steeper than 10% should be given special consideration. One method of
evaluation is to compare available valley storage (under flood conditions)
to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach
evaluated with a judgment estimate made of the flood wave height at all
critical points downstream.
Should there be any questions about the hazard classification for a dam,
the area engineer should be consulted before making design commitments.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average. operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change
over time as equipment gets ,older and components .wear. In particular, pump wear
tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use;nozzle wear results in
an increase in the nozzle' opening which will increase the discharge rate •while
decreasing the wetted diameter:
You should be aware that operating. the 'system differently than assumed _in the design
will alter the application rate, : diameter of :coverage, :andsubsequently the application
uniformity. For" example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller
droplets, greaterpotential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle.
-• Clogging of nozzles can :result.in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of
mainlines `will reduce operating pressure; .Operatingbelow design pressure .greatly
reduces the coverage diameterand application uniformity.'
For the above reason, you should calibrate• your equipment on a regular basis to ensure
properapplication rates and uniformity. Calibration at Idast once every three' years is
recommendedCalibration involves collecting and measuring flow at severallocations in
the application, a1 ea Any number , ;. of containers can.: be used . to collect flow and
determine the application . rate.. Rain: gauges .work best because: they already have a
graduated scale from which to road • the application. amount without havingto perform
additional calculations. .However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform
opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily
transferred to a scaled container for,measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection .contairfers should be Located' randomly throughout
the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers
should be located ;along a .transect perpendicular to the direction of pull.. Set out
Collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on ,both sides of the gun cart. You
should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application: On
a windless day, variation' between containers of 'more' than 30 percent is cause for
concern; You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical: Specialist for assistance.

Lagoon surface — look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment -. look for:
.1. Settlernent, cracking, or lug" holes
2. side. slope stability .-. slumps or bulges
S;:. wet. or daMP areas On the back slope
4.. erosion due to lack or vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons' may be subject to liner damagedue to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewails, thereby weakening the lagoon
dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave
NOtiOn, if wave action causes serious damage toa lagoon sidewall, 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 apprdpilate eXPeri familiar with design and
construction of waste lagOoils. -You May' need to ProVide a temporary fix if there IS a
threat of a waste die011ettle. HOwever, a permanent solution shOtild be reviewed by the
teOhrildat eipert : Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy eqylpment TS a serious
undertaking with Potentially serious cOnsequences and should not be conducted Unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert. .
Transfer Pumps — cheek for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pimp operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, Or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pu.mp is In need of repair or
replaaement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that
you . are not completely "surprised' by eqUiPment. failure. You should perform your
puniping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its (ow level. This will
allow some safety time Should 'major repairs be required. Haying a :nearly full lagoon it
not the time to think About switching, rePairing, or borrowing pumps: Probably, if your
lagoon is full, your :neighbor's lagoon is full also. Youshould 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
strudturee. The only water that should be coming from 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:
