PCS Page 2 of 2 The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. 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 ofthe 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 ofthe 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.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate ofthe number of acres needed for sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. 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 ofthe effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied 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. �aci iv Source Name Swine Feeder -Finish Lagoon Liquid Design Storage Capacity (Days) Start Date 9/1 180 Plan Year Month Available Storage Capacity (Days) * 1 1 70 1 2 69 1 3 121 1 _ 4 161 1 5 180 1 6 180 1 7 180 1 8 180 1 9 180 1 10 174 1 11 166 1 12 157 2 1 148 2 2 142 2 3 180 2 4 180 2 5 180 2 6 180 2 7 180 2 8 180 2 9 180 2 10 162 2 11 142 2 12 121 * Available Storage Capacity is calculated as of the end of each month. 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 03-17-2014 Capacity Page 1 of 1 Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management 1. 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). 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/17/2014 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. 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/17/2014 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. 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/17/2014 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. MAR 2 6 2OV 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/17/2014 Specification Page 4 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 5, 6, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B Corn: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leaching In the Coastal Plain, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-301bs/acre N and 20-301bs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 30-40 days after emergence. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production. The following crop note applies to field(s): 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained. Adaptation: Well -adapted. In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar., 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3" deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced 1' to 1.5' in row. For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus, potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in the establishment year in split applications in April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 240 lb/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts. Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance. 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 03-17-2014 Crop Note Page 1 of 2 The following crop note applies to field(s): 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B Small Grain: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leachable In the Coastal Plain, oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30; and rye from October 15-November 20. For barley, plant 22 seed/drill row foot and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and rye at 1-1 1/2 bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March. The following crop note applies to field(s): 5, 6, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B Wheat: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, medium leachable In the Coastal Plain, wheat should be planted from October 20-November 25. Plant 22 seed/drill row foot at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Adequate depth control when planting the wheat is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of diseases, insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production. The following crop note applies to field(s): 5, 6, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B Soybeans -Full Season, Coastal Plain: Mineral soil, medium leachable The suggested planting dates for soybeans in the Coastal Plains are from April 20-May 20. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can be broadcast or banded at planting. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential for profitable soybean production. 261976 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 03-17-2014 Crop Note Page 2 of 2 David Elston Farm Facility # 31-245 wettable acre footprintessmisk I. (;Z1 6( (landowne , hereby, give you, t iu; a (producer) permission to apply the lagoon effluent from your operation on 2.5' acres of my land (see attached map showing the field(s) to be used for the waste disposal). This permission is granted for the life of the proposed swine operation.' I have not and will not give permission to anyone else to apply their lagoon effluent or litter to the fields and tracts listed below. Tract(s) Number - Field(s) Number The lagoon effluent is to be applied in a manner that will not cause a problem with the nutrients leaching out of the soil and into ground and surface water (lakes, streams, and drainage ditches). The application of the waste will be timed in a manner so that it will not inconvenience the existing farming operations. ; (landowner) (date) 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 failures 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. 7 EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN PHONE NUMBERS DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY (DWQ) EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SERVICES (EMS) SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT (SWCD) flit: - NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE (NRCS) COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE (CES) /-800-868-0368 9i i olio • ea9lo - a12o 4.4 3 ID - 0 (0- al g• f-4 g1o•ath• a113 This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing or running off site.

Stumps will be removed within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas and all excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceeding one (1) inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1) foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly before placement of embankment material. Lagoon site (and pad site if needed) to be stripped of topsoil (3") and stockpiled for use on dike and pad slopes (2-3"). The topsoiling quantity is in excess of amounts specified on page one (1). Cut-off Trench: A cut-off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in the plans. Construction: Construction of excavated and earthfill areas shall be performed to the neat lines and grades as planned. Deviations from this will require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall be placed in max. of 6" lifts and not placed in standing water. Compaction shall be performed by the construction equipment or sheeps-foot roller during placement. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall include ten (10) pereent for settlement. To protect against seepage, when areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they___wi.11 rteed_ .te5 be excavated a m nin1um of one (1) foot3 below grad8 and backfiJ. ed and compacted with a SQ7 approved materi4 .: {�e:--CL,SC, CH) . Refer to the soil investigation information in the plans for special considerations. Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. Vegetation: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to seeding specifications sheet. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with minimum odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be reached (permanent + temporary storage) may vary due to flushing operations and the amount of fresh water to be added to the system. The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume based on : 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after evaporation; and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the average of once every 25 years. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. This estimate is based on 7 inches of excess rainfall which is equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in a year. The average annual excess rainfall is approximately 8 inches. Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall will need to be pumped each year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed on the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment depth (6 feet). Pumping can be started or stopped any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit (weather, soils, crop, and equipment 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 runoff from the field or damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended tha 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. When pre - charging is completed, 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 B) before land application. 3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva- tion 45.30 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.90 or before fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25 year storm is 140795 cubic feet or 1053146 gallons. As stated before, this volume will vary considerably from year to year. 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4 inches per hour. 5. Keep vegetation on 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 100 feet cropland buffer or 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields, particularly adjacent to ponds, lakes, streams, open ditches, etc. Do not pump within 300 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. 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.
