NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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,flushing 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.
_6o(
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion Q9 q -41as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation'(E-,0-99 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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Owners name--:DAVID JOHNSON County:DUPLIN
Mail Address -:ROSE HILL
Type of production unit ----:FINISHING ONLY
Type of waste facility :Anaerobic Lagoon
Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a
given storage capacity. When the waste reaches the designed
level, it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients
in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on 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 and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in 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. 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.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste
or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility.
The design of your waste management facility is based on the
following:
Amount of Waste Produced Per Year:
2880 animals x 1.9 tons waste/animal/yr= 5472 tons
total waste
Page 2
Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen Produced Per Year:
2880 animals x 2.30 lbs. N/animal/year = 6624 lbs./yr
Available N
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in
a timely manner. Your facility is designed for 180 days of
storage. Therefore, it will need to be pumped every 6
months.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
Clearing:
All trees and brush shall be removed from the construction area
before any excavating or fill is started. 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.
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 not be placed
in standing water and reasonable compaction of the fills 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) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage,
when areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will need to •
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and
compacted with a suitable material (ie-CL,SC,CH). Refer to the soils
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.

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.
Routine Mortality
Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours of knowledge of animal
death. The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public body of water
(G.S.106-403). The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high water table. Attach burial location map and plan.
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-
sumer Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off -farm,
additional 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
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.

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, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential 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. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area, 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 read the application amount
without having to 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 containers 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.

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 you 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 ore may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed belwo.
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 flows 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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
NITROGEN ONLY & ANIMAL WASTE ONLY PLAN

TYPE OPERATION: Swine Feeder to Finish
Anaerobic lagoon
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 2,880
(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of
surface 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 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. 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. Soil types are important as they have different
infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding
capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per
year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do
not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these
conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under NCDENR regulations.
Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize
the value of nutrients for crop 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 your plan. Nutrient levels for different application 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. 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 2H.
0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

*This N is from animal waste only. If nutrients from other sources such as commercial fertilizer are applied, they must be accounted for. N must be
based on realistic yield expectation.
NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone
Management Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients.
This plan only addresses Nitrogen.
If waste is to be soil incorporated or injected, PAN will be 2.16 Ibs PAN/1,000 gallons:
2,669,760 gallons x 2.16 Ibs PAN/1,000 gal soil incorp or injected = 5,767 Ibs PAN/year

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 waster 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 tables. 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 the optimum soil conditions.
Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or Soil and Water
Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the
amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.
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.

October: Wheat
November: Wheat
December: Wheat
Estimated Sludge Accumulation:
135 gallons of sludge/animal/year x 2,880 animals = 388,800 gallons sludge produced/year
Approximately 10.2 Ibs PAN/1,000 gallons sludge (broadcast or irrigate)
Approximately 12.24 Ibs PAN/1,000 gallons sludge (soil incorporated or injected)
At 388,800 gal sludge/yr and 10.2 Ibs PAN/1,000 gal sludge = 3,966 Ibs PAN in sludge/year
If applied to corn at 150 Ibs PAN/ac, need about 27 acres of land for application.

Acres shown in 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 maps showing fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste.
Refer to your local extension office or soil & water conservation office for more information about
crop and animal waste management.
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.
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
1
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.
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 waste, he/she shall provide a copy 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 facility to secure an
update of the Waste Utilization 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 on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application 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 that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard
393 - Filter Strip).
5 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 irrigation field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on
conventionally tilled cropland. When 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.)
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 or flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface
is frozen.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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 Waste nutrients 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
12
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. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by
13 the landowner.
Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
14
Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
15 discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland
provided they 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.
Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not
16 be discharged into the animal waste management system.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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.
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
20 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.
Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least once every
three years 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
22 levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained.
Records shall be kept for at least three (3) years for state general permits. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Records shall be kept for at least
five (5) years for NPDES permits. 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.
