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 acre 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 DEM 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 to bare ground
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
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. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques,
preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION.•
There are 46.3 acres established in bermuda grass for this operation Because of field
shapes, buffers, and irrigation system layout there are 14.2 acres of effective irrigation
coverage. This operation has a two stage lagoon system with 180 days tenporary storage.
Effluent from the second stage lagoon will be applied to the bermuda grass by irrigation
using a traveling gun system. These fields may be overseeded in cereal rye in the winter tl
better utilize nutrients produced and to fit the design storage period of this system. If
you decide to overseed in winter you will need to follow the instructions in the mennrandtrr
from Dr. Jim Green which is attached to this plan. This memorandum outlines planting dates
and nitrogen application rates and times. The effective area of coverage of the irrigation
system will utilize the nutrients pl,wluced by this operation. The landowner has a honey
wagon that can be used to apply effluent to the other 32.1 acres on this farm. Sludge
will need to be removed fLuu the lagoon system every 5-10 years.. A waste analysis will
need to be run on this material prior to application and a waste utilization plan
prepared for the sludge. Additional lands off site may be needed for proper utilization.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 which reaches surface water is prohibited.
lllegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the
waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he
shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a
landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land
for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. 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 utilization, 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, climate conditions,
and level of mana•ement, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RS)
or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be
no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used
where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to `Buffers"
required by DEM. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390 (Interim)
- Riparian Forest Buffers.]
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when the wind is blowing.
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" in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.]
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATION
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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal wasteshall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall not be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that no
more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf area is covered.
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
on bare. soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance
may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter
strips are present. [See Standard 393 - Filter Strips]
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.
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
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a `technical
specialist." Animal waste should 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.
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 embanlanents, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and 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.
Lagoon 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 consumption it should only be applied preplant 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.
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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitered
and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive
levels. Ph shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and
waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application
records shall be maintained for three (3) 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.

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:
1) Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
2) Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
3) Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
4) Call a pumping contractor.
5) Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
b. Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
1) Immediately stop waste application.
2) Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
3) Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
4) Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff.
5) Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
c. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include:
1) Stop recycle pump.
2) Stop irrigation pump.
3) Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
4) Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
1 November 23, 2016
d. Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
1) Stop recycle pump.
2) Stop irrigation pump.
3) Make sure no siphon occurs.
4) Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
5) 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:
1) Dig a small sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in
a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
2) If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes
and compact with a clay type soil.
3) Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and 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 for 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.
rr a. During normal business hours, call your DWR regional office, phone number: (9,00
"133 - 33 00 . After hours, emergency number: 1-800-858-0368. Your phone call should
include: your name, facility, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2
above, the exact location of the facility, the location or direction of movement of the
spill, weather and wind conditions. The corrective measures that have been under
taken, and the seriousness of the situation.
b. If spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS, phone number: 9/i
. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department.

2) local SWCD office, phone number:�Ql 5183
3) local NRCS office, phone number: 5183
4. If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your problem
to them and ask that person to contact the proper agencies for you.
5. Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair of problem to minimize off -site
damage.
