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 greaterthan 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 opacity, 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 utiJir'a.tion plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

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, storical 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). 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. IA. 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 componentof 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.' 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet 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, drainage ways, 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 watercourses, 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 wash down, 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, Teaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. zo. 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. 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. United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service RECEIVEDINCDEQ/,WR MAR 2 5 2019 Water Quality Regional Operations Section NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION N.C. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 Prepared for: ei it ar° (4_9 FQr-n- By: J' II cr LQ, — (pIO Farm: 4,7-// Tract(s): t'o Date: ) /i - / WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT? Nutrient Management is applying nutrients from all sources with the right placement, in the right amount, at the right time, and from the right source to minimize nutrient losses to surface and groundwater. This practice is accomplished through development and implementation of a Nutrient Management Plan, which can be part of a broader Conservation Plan or CNMP that addresses multiple resource concerns. PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT A nutrient management plan is intended to accomplish one or more of the following objectives: • To budget, supply, and conserve nutrients for plant production. • To minimize agricultural nonpoint source pollution of surface and groundwater resources. • To properly utilize manure or organic by- products as a plant nutrient source. • To protect air quality by reducing odors, nitrogen emissions (ammonia, oxides of nitrogen), and the formation of atmospheric particulates. • To maintain or improve the physical, chemical, and biological condition of soil. CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN The following components are included in nutrient management plan specifications typical of more `traditional' NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 fertilizer and manure application methods. When precision ag/variable rate application technology is utilized, see the next section of this Job Sheet for additional guidance on plan requirements. • aerial site photograph(s)/imagery or site map(s), and a soil survey map of the site, • Sufficient soils information —such as dominant soil map until for each planned field —needed to apply nutrients at RYE and Soil Test Report determined rates as appropriate; and to not exceed rates determined by nutrient risk assessment planning criteria. • location of designated sensitive areas and the associated nutrient application restrictions and setbacks, • results of approved risk assessment tools for any necessary evaluations for nitrogen, phosphorus, and erosion losses. • current and/or planned plant production sequence or rotation, • soil, water, compost, manure, organic by- product, and plant tissue sample analyses applicable to the plan. Where non-NCDA soil testing labs are used, nutrient recommendations must be made using NCDA- similar guidelines and methodologies. Note: high levels of soil copper and zinc may be toxic to production crops. Land application of these nutrients must be accordance with NCSU/NCDA crop toxicity guidelines. • Realistic yield goals for the crops planned for nutrient application, page 1 • Planned nitrogen application rates based on NC Realistic Yield Expectations (RYEs) or sufficiently documented yield records, • The Nitrogen Leaching Index for planned fields, • Planned P & K application rates based on soil test results (see next section where P & K applied through variable rate technology). • listing and quantification of all nutrient sources and form, including starter fertilizer applications and legume -based cover crop mixes. • in accordance with the nitrogen and phosphorus risk assessment tool(s), specify the recommended nutrient application source, timing, amount (except for precision/variable rate applications specify method used to determine rate), and placement of plant nutrients for each field or management unit, and • guidance for implementation, operation and maintenance, and recordkeeping as specified by the CNMP or applicable NC DWQ or NDPES permit. Where recision/variable rate nutrient apph= applications are planned and made, some required planning components of the preceding section may be provided by the overall conservation plan. In addition, the following components are required in nutrient management planning. • The geo-referenced field boundary and data collected that was processed and analyzed as a GIS layer or layers to generate nutrient or soil amendment recommendations. • Planned nitrogen application rates based on NC RYEs or sufficiently documented yield records • The Nitrogen Leaching Index for planned fields. • The nutrient recommendation guidance and recommendation equations used to convert the GIS base data layer or layers to a nutrient source material recommendation GIS layer or layers. • Soil testing documentation that crop Phosphorus (P205) and Potassium (K20) nutrient or soil amendment application will be made per soil test results similar to NCDA guidelines. Where P & K will not be applied via variable rate application technology, but by basic GPS guidance, recommended P & K NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 rates must be provided as specifications prior to application. • Note —where Diammonium phosphate (18-46- 0) is the primary variable rate P fertilizer source applied on legume crops, additional N will likely be needed to achieve RYEs. The plan was developed based on the current NRCS 590 standard and Federal, state, or local regulations or policies. Changes in laws or regulations may require a plan modification. This Job Sheet is a required supplement to the Nutrient Management Plan. NC Permitted Animal O erations: For NC DENR-DWR or NPDES permitted animal operations, the waste utilization portion of the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) must meet requirements specified by the Permit. The NC 1217 Interagency Group provides•guidance on the required minimum elements of a CAWMP. This guidance is found in Sec 1.1 of the latest 1217 Guidance Document, located at: htt. ://www.nca-r.uov/SWC/tech/auidancedocumen ts. html. Nitro en Leachin Index Values Nitro en Leachin Index values, obtained throw h use of current Soil Hydrologic GroupSHG -based LI index ma s in Sec II of the NC FOTG or RUSLE 2 field-s ecific soil loss calculations are included in the Nutrient Mana ement Plan. SHGs per soil map unit are available through selection of the Soil Data Explorer and Soil Properties and Qualities (then select "Soil Qualities and Features") tabs once an Area of Interest has been defined in NRCS Web Soil Survey. If the Nitro en Leachin Index > 10 for planned fields, appropriate conservation practices must be included in a conservation plan to prevent nitrogen from leaving the field via surface or subsurface runoff. Below are conservation crop management techniques and practices recommended for mitigation of nitrate losses (practices also documented in conservation plan): page 2 NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN DEVELOPMENT The nutrient management plan has been developed to meet nutrient application rate criteria for all sources of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium as specified by NRCS 590 Nutrient Management standard criteria. In addition to NCDA Agronomic Division soil test recommendations, or soil test recommendations made through similar guidelines, the plan is based on NC INMC approved values for realistic yield goals, nitrogen factors, phosphorusremoval rates, default nutrient values for animal waste, plant availability coefficients for N, P, and K, and animal waste generation volumes where applicable. Approved values are found at: http://nutrients.soilncsu.edu/index.htm Where manure is applied, farm records may also be used through a procedure provided in SB 1217 Interagency Group guidance, available at: http://www.ncacirgov/SWC/tech/1217committee.ht ml For NC permitted animal operations, planning requirements for Plan "Amendments" (minor modifications) and "Revisions" (Major Modifications) are clarified by SB 1217 Interagency Group Guidance. ADDITIONAL PHOSPHORUS -RELATED PLAN INFORMATION (Applicable when increases in Soil Test P are expected on the planned area): In NC, a field -specific Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) evaluation is completed in accordance with 590 Nutrient Management standard General Criteria requirements, and phosphorus must be applied in accordance with 590 standard Manure Phosphorus Application Rates. In addition to the basic plan components, plan information on PLAT categorical ratings, P drawdown strategies, and conservation practices to reduce P loss risk is required when increases in Soil Test P are expected on the planned area. Typically, this could occur when manure is consistently applied at Nitrogen -based rates. High levels of phosphorus in the surface soil layer have been linked to increasing risk of P loss through surface runoff and leaching. ❑ Increases in Soil Test P are expected on the planned area (not typical if P application made per soil test results). NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 PLAT Categorical Ratings Information When soil test phosphorus continues to increase on a long term basis, PLAT may produce results that require P-based manure application planning and planning for no additional manure P. Conditions that will require P-based or no-P planning will be based on site specific resource conditions, which will facilitate data input into PLAT. PLAT categorical ratings that will require enhanced P application planning are: HIGH: P-based manure application is required (limited to P uptake in harvested crop biomass) VERY HIGH: No additional manure.P or starter P application to be specified in nutrient management plan. Phosphorus Drawdown Strategy Information: Implementation of a phosphorus ',drawdown' strategy may be a consequence of PLAT results, or may be requested in order to lower soil test phosphorus levels. Should a reduction in soil test P be desired or necessary, the only currently proven method of substantial P 'drawdown' is to not apply manure - based P and to plant and harvest crops that utilize P currently present in the soil surface. Crop specific estimated annual P removal amounts are available on the NCSU Nutrient Management in NC website: http://nutrients.soil.ncsu.edu/vields/index.phri Conservation Practices and Management Techniques to Reduce P Loss Potential: Conservation practices, especially those that prevent soil particle detachment and trap sediment at field edges are effective in preventing phosphorus movement from the planned site. Manure application techniques can also be applied to reduce P loss risk. These practices must be included in the conservation plan where determined PLAT risk = HIGH for planned fields. Consult the conservation plan developed in conjunction with the nutrient management plan for information on practices recommended to reduce Rhos, horus AND nitrogen loss risks. Application management techniques to reduce nutrient loss risk may be prescribed below. page 3 Long Term Strategy for Reduction of Soil P Levels: As noted in the P drawdown strategy section, the only currently proven method for reducing high levels of soil P is not applying P, paired with producing crops on the planned site that use existing soil P. Where soil P and PLAT evaluations indicate an increasing risk to water quality, substantially reducing soil P levels through crop uptake can take many years of _ implementation. When P is not applied, and existing soil P is used by crops, eventually, soil will become P deficient. Consult CES or NCDA Regional Agronomy specialists for additional information soil test P reduction timelines. Manure P produced in excess of croR requirements: Consult the nutrient management plan for a quantification of manure generated by the animal feeding operation that may exceed crop P requirements. "Manure Hauler" Information All manure waste applied on land owned by or controlled by the Animal Feeding Operation (AFO) owner or operator must be included in the nutrient management plan. The volume difference in total manure waste generated by the AFO and waste applied to land not owned or controlled by the producer must be accounted for in a nutrient management plan. General information on manure waste generated by an AFO to be applied to land not owned or controlled by the AFO owner or operator may be recorded as specified in the NC CNMP Certification Sheet and Documentation Checklist or other supplemental documentation to the nutrient management plan. NRCS CNMP technical criteria require documentation of manure exports off the farm (this can be done below). The AFO owner/operator should provide the third party applicator with a current waste analysis in order to facilitate agronomic crop application of the facility's generated waste. Should land not owned or controlled by the AFO owner or operator be included in a nutrient management plan, the complete plan must meet 590 criteria. Type and Quantity of Animal Feeding Operation (AFO) manure generated by the facility: Quantity of AFO manure generated to be exported off the farm for third party application: NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 RECORDKEEPING Waste reports from the NCDA & CS Agronomic Division, or equivalent, are acceptable sources of information for determining applied manure nutrient amounts for recordkeeping or crop budgeting purposes. Records must be maintained for at least 5 years, or for time and manner required by Permit for animal operations to document plan implementation and maintenance. As applicable, records include: • soil, plant tissue, water, manure, and organic by-product analyses resulting in recommendations for nutrient application, • quantities, analyses and sources of nutrients applied, • dates, and method(s) of nutrient applications, source of nutrients, and rates of application, • weather conditions and soil moisture at the time of application; lapsed time to manure incorporation; rainfall or irrigation event, • crops planted, planting and harvest dates, yields, nutrient analyses of harvested biomass, and crop residues removed, • dates of plan review, name of reviewer, and recommended changes resulting from the review, and • all enhanced efficiency fertilizer products used. Additional records for precision/variable rate sites must include: • maps identifying the variable application source, timing, amount, and placement of all plant nutrients applied, and • GPS-based yield maps for crops where yields can be digitally collected. • Documentation per field nitrogen application rates do not exceed RYE - based recommended rates • Documentation that applied phosphorus and potassium recommendations do not exceed recommended rates specified by soil tests. • For non -variable rate application of P & K, provide applied map with field boundaries indicating source, timing, method, and rate of all applications. • Where `chlorophyll reader' technology is utilized, application records that nitrogen rates match RYE -based N rates as closely as possible. page 4 ONSLOW SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT County Streets Feet 0 90 180 360 540 720 Date Prepared: 3/18/2019 Prepared By: D.Wallace 2018 Aerials - Onslow County_ NC Farm i& spray melds Kenneth Cox Farm 67-11 Produced by Onslow SWCD EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN PHONE NUMBERS DWQ QG E_I� �r''-t EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SWCD NRCS B e l�Fa q37. /3063 .

Retain this plan For your use and records. It is strongly recommended that you, your contractor, and Soil Conservation Service personnel are in agreement as to how the waste lagoon is to be constructed. The Soil Conservation Service personnel will meet with all concerned parties and walk over the site to explain all flags and markings. It is important that everyone understand what is expected so that final construction meets plans and specification and the job can be certified for payment (if cost -sharing is involved). The pad 'dimensions and grades are the best estimate. The BUILDER or CONTRACTOR is RESPONSIBLE for final layout and design of the pads. The Soil Conservation Service personnel will assist in a limited capacity, as its major concern is the proper design and construction of the waste treatment lagoon. The actual amount of material required for pads and.dam may vary from the estimates. The design will attempt to balance cuts and Fills as close as possible. If additional material is required after construction is complete on the lagoon, the contractor and owner will negotiate on the price and location of borrow area.

Most farm pondsoexcept in borderjine cases, can be classified after a complete field investigation without assuming failure and making breach studies. This data sheet is to be used for recording the information obtained through field studies and for documenting the hazard classification. Where there is a possibility for los's of life or major property damage from a dam failure; an approved breach routing 'procedure is to be used. (Consult with the area engineer'.:) Hazard classifications of lams are made by evaluating the possibility for loss of life .and the e,tent of damage that would result if the dam should suddenly breach--tha't is --a section of the dam be suddenly and • completely washed out. It is to,be assumed that a wall of water will be released equal to the height of the dam. This flood wave will be reduced to height as it moves down the flood Plain. The wave height (depth of flooding) should be'evaluated fora sufficient distance downstream until the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements, such as homes; -buildings, roads, utilities,.reservoirs, etc. The breach flood level will:be reduced depending on.the valley storage, slope, and , openess of the flood plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes steeper than 10" should be given special consideration. One method of evaluation is to Compare available valley.storage (under flood conditions) to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach evaluated with a judgment estimate made of the flood wave height at all critical points downstream.' . Should there be any questions about tlie,hazard classification for a dam, the area engineer should be consulted before making design commitments.
