The gauge shall have readily visible permanent markings. The waste level in each lagoon with a waste level gauge shall be monitored and recorded weekly on forms supplied by or approved by the Division. The Director may require more frequent monitoring and recording of waste levels based on the facility's compliance history for freeboard violations. b. Any facility which experiences freeboard violations in any two consecutive years following the issuance of this General Permit, or as determined necessary by the Director, shall monitor and record waste levels as follows: 6 March 7, 2014 Permit Number AWG100000 In addition to the facility's existing lagoon waste-level gauges, automated lagoon/storage pond waste-level monitors and recorders (monitored and recorded at least hourly)must be installed on all treatment and storage structures covered by a COC issued under this General Permit to measure and record freeboard. This equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated in a manner consistent with manufacturer's operation and maintenance recommendations. This automated equipment must be in place no later than ninety(90)days following notification from the Director. The Director may determine that installation of automated waste level monitors is not required if the Permittee can demonstrate that preventative measures were taken to avoid the violations and that the violations resulted from conditions beyond the Permittee's control. If an automated level monitor(s)becomes inoperable,the Permittee shall: i. report the problem by telephone to the appropriate Division Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the problem; and, ii. make any needed repairs to the equipment as quickly as possible,and take and record daily waste levels at the same time every day until such time as the automated equipment is placed back into operation. C. The Director may require new or modified waste-level gauges at any facility if it is determined that the existing gauges are not adequate to accurately indicate actual lagoon levels, or the various lagoon levels required to be maintained by this General Permit or the facility's CAWMP. 3. Monitoring and Recording Precipitation Events a. Precipitation events at facilities issued a COC to operate under this General Permit shall be monitored and recorded as follows: A rain gauge must be installed at a site that is representative of the weather conditions at the farm's land application site(s) to measure all precipitation events. The precipitation type and amount must be recorded daily for all precipitation events and maintained on site for review by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (Departnent).Daily records do not need to be maintained for those days without precipitation events. b. The Director may require that an automated rain gauge and recorder must be installed on site to measure and record all precipitation events. This equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated in a manner consistent with manufacturer's operation and maintenance recommendations. This automated equipment must be in place no later than ninety(90)days following receipt of notice from the Director. If an automated rain gauge(s)becomes inoperable,the Permittee shall: i. report the problem by telephone to the appropriate Division Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than twenty four (24) hours following first knowledge of the problem; and, ii. make any needed repairs to the equipment as quickly as possible,and take and record all rainfall events until such time as the automated equipment is placed back into operation. 7 March 7, 2014 Permit Number AWG100006 4.

GENERAL CONDITIONS 1. The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for compliance with all applicable surface water, wetlands, groundwater and air quality standards or for damages to surface waters, wetlands or groundwaters resulting from the animal operation. 2. The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the facility's CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event plus an additional one (1) foot of structural freeboard except that there shall be no violation of this condition if: (a) there is a storm event more severe than a 25-year, 24-hour event, (b) the Permittee is in compliance with its CAWMP, and (c) there is at least one (1) foot of structural freeboard. In addition to the above requirements,for new and expanding farms with lagoon and storage pond designs completed after September 1, 1996, storage must also be provided for the heavy rainfall factor for the lagoons/storage pond. In case of lagoons/storage ponds in series that are gravity fed, the 25-year, 24-hour storm event and/or the heavy rainfall factor storage requirement for the system may be designed into the lowest lagoon/storage pond in the system. However, adequate freeboard must be designed into the upper lagoons/storage ponds to allow sufficient storage to prevent the waste level from rising into the structural freeboard while the storm water is draining into the lowest structure in the system. 3. Any containment basin, such as a lagoon or a storage pond, used for waste management shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of this General Permit until properly closed. When the containment basin is properly closed in accordance with the NRCS NC Conservation Practice Standard No. 360 "Closure of Waste Impoundments," February 2008 or any subsequent amendment,the containment basin shall not be subject to the requirements of this General Permit. The Permittee must submit a letter to the Division to request rescission of the COC by providing documentation of closure of aII containment basins. Closure shall also include a minimum of 24 hours pre-notification of the Division and submittal of the Animal Waste Storage Pond and Lagoon Closure Report Form to the address identified on the form within fifteen(15)days of completion of closure. 4. This General Permit allows for the distribution of up to four(4)cubic yards of manure per visit to individuals for personal use, The maximum distribution of manure per individual for personal use is ten(10)cubic yards per year. The Permittee must provide the recipient(s)with information on the nutrient content of the manure. Distribution of greater quantities must be to individuals or businesses permitted to distribute the waste, or to be land applied to sites identified in the Permittee's CAWMP. The Permittee must inform the recipient(s) of his/her responsibilities to properly manage the land application of manure. Record keeping for the distribution of manure up to four(4) cubic yards per visit or ten(10)cubic yards per year to individuals for personal use is not required. 5. The annual permit fee shall be paid by the Permittee within thirty (30) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly constitutes grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Permit. 6. Failure of the Permittee to maintain, in full force and effect, lessee and landowner agreements, which are required in the CAWMP, shall constitute grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Permit. 12 March 7, 2014 Permit Number AWG100000 7. A COC to operate under this General Permit is not transferable. In the event there is a desire for the facility to change ownership, or there is a name change of the Permittee, a Notification of Change of Ownership form must be submitted to the Division, including documentation from the parties involved and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. This request shall be submitted within sixty (60) days of change of ownership. The request will be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved. 8. A COC to operate under this General Permit is effective only with respect to the nature and volume of wastes described in the application and other supporting data. The Permittee shall notify the Division immediately of any applicable information not provided in the permit application. Any proposed modification to an animal waste management system including the installation of lagoon covers shall require approval from the Division prior to construction. 9. If the Permittee wishes to continue an activity regulated by this General Permit after the expiration date of this General Permit, the Permittee must apply for and obtain a new COC. Renewal applications must be filed at least 180 calendar days prior to the expiration of the General Permit. 10. The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit does not prohibit the Division from reopening and modifying the General Permit or COC,revoking and reissuing the General Permit or COC, or terminating the General Permit or COC as allowed by the appropriate laws,rules, and regulations. 11. The Director may require any person, otherwise eligible for coverage under this General Permit, to apply for an individual permit by notifying that person that an application is required. 12. The Groundwater Compliance Boundary is established by 15A NCAC 2L .0102 and 15A NCAC 2T .0103. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to the requirements-of 15A NCAC 2L and the Division in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under the North Carolina General Statutes. 13. Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more,the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility. VI. PENALTIES 1. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this General Permit; the facility's COC; the facility's CAWMP; and/or applicable state law; may subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division including but not limited to the modification of the animal waste management system, civil penalties,criminal penalties and injunctive relief. 2. The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this General Permit. Any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of state law and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit coverage termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit coverage renewal application. 3. It shall not be a defense for a Permittee in an enforcement action to claim that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this General Permit. 13 March 7, 2014 Permit Number AWG100000 VEL DEFINITIONS 25-year, 24-hour rainfall or storm event means the maximum 24-hour precipitation event with a probable recurrence interval of once in 25 years, as defined by the National Weather Service in Technical Paper Number 40, "Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States," May 1961, and subsequent amendments,or equivalent regional or state rainfall probability information developed therefrom. Agronomic rates means the amount of animal waste and/or other nutrient sources to be applied to lands as outlined in NRCS NC Conservation Practice Standards No. 590 "Nutrient Management" or as recommended by the NCDA&CS and the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service at the time of certification of the Animal Waste Management Plan by the appropriate certified technical specialist. Amendment to the CAWMP means a change and/or addition to a part(s)of the plan, and requires that the change and/or addition adhere to current applicable standards. The following are examples of amendments to the CAWMP: • In an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes 25% or less of the N generated is considered a plan amendment.Additional acreage needed to facilitate the change in crops and/or cropping pattern is permissible and considered part of the amendment. • The addition of winter crops and/or interseeded perennial crops are considered amendments to an existing CAWMP when the operation does not require additional acreage and/or crops for N utilization,and does not exceed the 25%criteria stated above. • When a CAWMP cannot meet N utilization requirements due to land lost to irrigation inefficiency (useable versus total acres), then the CAWMP may be amended to increase available acreage and/or change the crop for N utilization.This is the only exception to the 25%N criteria for plan revision. • Inclusions of emergency action plans, and insect, odor and mortality checklists are considered CAWMP amendments. • Including additional acreage for land application beyond what is required in the existing CAWMP is considered a plan amendment. Animal feeding operation means a lot or facility(other than an aquatic animal production facility)where the following conditions are met: (i) animals (other than aquatic animals) have been, are, or will be stabled or confined and fed or maintained for a total of forty five (45) days or more in any twelve (12) month period, and (ii) crops, vegetation, forage growth, or post-harvest residues are not sustained in the normal growing season over any portion of the lot or facility. Two or more animal feeding operations under common ownership are considered to be a single animal feeding operation if they adjoin each other, or if they use a common area or system for the disposal of wastes. Certification means technical specialist certification of the CAWMP in accordance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 02T .1304. It is unrelated to terms "Annual Certification" as used in Condition III.14 of this General Permit, and the "No Discharge Certification Option" allowed by the November 2008 EPA CAFO Rule. Ditch means any man made channel for the purpose of moving water off a site to the surface waters. Excessive Ponding means any area of the application field where visible liquid waste is ponded on the surface of the land application site more than four(4)hours following the application of waste. Excessive ponding also means any areas where the ponding of waste has resulted in crop failure. Groundwaters means any subsurface waters, as defined in 15A NCAC 2L .0102. 14 March 7, 2014 Permit Number AWG100000 Land application means the application of wastewater and/or waste solids onto or incorporation into the soil. Major changes to the CAWMP means changes in the number of animals, type of operation (feeder to finish to wean to feeder), retrofit of a lagoon, installation of a new irrigation system, and similar type changes. Recertification is only required for major changes to the CAWMP. Major changes to a facility must first be approved by the Division. The new CAWMP and the certification shall be submitted with a request that the COC be amended to reflect the changes. The facility may not make the changes until a new or amended COC has been issued. Revision to the CAWMP means a change to an entire CAWMP to meet current applicable standards. A CAWMP must be revised if the operation cannot utilize all N nitrogen generated by the animal production in accordance with the existing CAWMP, except for the specific conditions noted in the CAWMP amendment criteria as previously defined. For an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes more than 25% of the N generated by the operation is considered a plan revision. Any change to an existing CAWMP,whether an amendment or revision, must be signed and dated by both the producer and a technical specialist for the new CAWMP to be valid. A revision of the CAWMP does not require recertification. State Waters means all surface waters,wetlands,groundwaters and waters of the United States located in the State. Surface Waters means any stream,river, brook, swamp, lake, sound,tidal estuary, bay, creek, reservoir, waterway, or other surface body or surface accumulation of water;whether public or private, or natural or artificial,that is contained in, flows through, or borders upon any portion of the State of North Carolina, including any portion of the Atlantic Ocean over which the State has jurisdiction as well as any additional Waters of the United States which are located in the State. Waste means manure, animal waste, process wastewater and/or sludge generated at an animal feeding operation. Wetlands means areas that are inundated or saturated by an accumulation of surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do support a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions,as defined in 15A NCAC 2B .0202.

Producer: Jimmy Barrow WEST The purpose of this plan is to provide guidelines for carrying out the routine operation and maintenance work needed to keep this swine waste management system functioning as planned. Routine maintenance is considered to be normal good care of the system. Good maintenance adds to beauty, usefulness, and permanence. A. Maintenance The routine maintenance of the lagoon involves the following: 1 . Maintenance of a vegetative cover on the embankment top and side slopes : Fescue and common bermuda has been established on these areas . Beginning in 1999 and each year thereafter, the embankment should be fertilized with 800 pounds of 10- 10-10 per acre to maintain a vigorous stand. 2 . Control of brush and trees on the embankment . This may be done by mowing, spraying, or chopping, or a combination of all three. This will need to be done at least once each year and possibly twice in years favorable to heavy growth of vegetation. Maintenance inspections of the lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at least annually. Items to be checked should include, as a minimum, the following: 1 , waste Inlet Pipes, Overflow Pipes a. condition of pipes (1) separation of joints (2) cracks or breaks 2 . Pool Area a. undesirable vegetative growth b. floating or lodged debris 3 . Embankment a. settlement, cracking or "jug" holes b. side slope stability - slumps or bulges C. erosion and rodent damage 4 . Transfer Pump (not applicable) 1 ' sne�ss B. Operation Your animal waste management facility was designed for a total of 1000 sows/animals (topping) . The lagoon contains both permanent and temporary storage. The permanent storage is not to be pumped in order to ensure that anaerobic action will occur. The design includes permanent storage of one cubic foot per pound of steady state live weight . The temporary storage portion of the cludes capacity for the volume of waste produced o r 90 days, the amount of rainfall in a 25 year 24 hour storm n rainfall in excess of evaporation. Your facility is designed for 60 days of temporary storage; therefore, it will need to be pumped every three months . Begin ump-out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches elevation dj e.� as marked by permanent markers . Stop pump-out when the fluid level reaches elevation ?64. 1 The attached waste management plan should be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B) before land application. The waste material should be analyzed before each application cycle to determine its nutrient content . A soil test of the area of application should be made annually to insure the waste is applied as reasonably and practically possible to recommended rates . The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States .

Producer: Jimmy Barrow -WR-S Location: on Barrows Mill Rd, Rt 1 Box 446, Jackson NC 27845 Telephone: 252-534-7901 Type Operation: Topping Number of Animal Units: 1000 The waste from your animal facility 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. 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 order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that 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 or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters . 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 . 'his waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for ompliance with 15A NCAC 2H. 0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission ........................ ._._._._ .- -._.._...._._._ 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. 2 . There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized 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 a notarized 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 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 management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients . Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner. 4 . Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 ton per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 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 Strips) 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 N.C. " for guidance. ) 7 . Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off site 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 surface is frozen. .................... . . WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN............."..... _ . . . . _�._ _ . . 9 . Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit 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 a crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11 . Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimiter 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 any perennial stream or river other than an irrigation ditch or 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 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 from 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 overspraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist" . Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and 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 . Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. ...... WASTE UTILIZATION.............. PLAN ......... ............ 18 . If animal production at the facility is to be 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21 . Highly visible permanent 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 . Soil tests shall be made every two years and a liquid waste analysis be taken at least twice each year consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry litter shall be tested prior to application. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years . 23 .

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. 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 or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. 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 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. Amount of Waste Produced Per Year(gallons, tons,etc.) 1000 animals X 751 gal.waste/animal/year= 751,000 gals.waste/year. Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) Produced Per Year 1000 animals X 2.3 lbs. PAN/animal/year= 2300 lbs. PAN/year. (PAN from N. C.Tech. Guide Std.633) 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 The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown and surface application: Table 1: ACRES OWNED BY PRODUCER Tract Field Soil Crop Lbs.

In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in your structure exceed Elevation 98.2. 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. Narrative of Operation: Waste will be applied to coastal bermuda overseeded in the fall with small grain on the home farm and to rye and cotton on William Barrow's farm. 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. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized 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 a notarized 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 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 management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 ton per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 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 Strips) 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 N.C."for guidance.) 7. Liquid Waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off site 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 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 depth that would prohibit 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 a 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 any perennial stream or river other than an irrigation ditch or 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 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 from 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 overspraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist'. Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and 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. 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 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible permanent 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. Soil tests shall be made every two years and a liquid waste analysis be taken at least twice each year consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry litter shall be tested prior to application. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations.
