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.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
a 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.
El Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC
13B .0200.
di ! Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7.
ElEl Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
El 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).
El El 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).
Y4' 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.

Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon
Storage Period: >180 days
Application Method: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water 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:
1. 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.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. 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 DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the 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.
1 of 11

This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this 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 plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This Toss of stand will result in reduced yields and Tess nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 881.28 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4406.4 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 14 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 35.2512 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
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 water 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 preceding table. 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 optimum soil conditions.
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.

NUTRIENT 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 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 Utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recievincq crop type, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for
other nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding Tess 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 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
surface is frozen.

NUTRIENT 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 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,
1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 , Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other propertyand public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland
provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

NUTRIENT 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.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal
waste during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
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 soil 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 a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

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'
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,
NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 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 precision/variable rate nutrient
application 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 Operations: 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:
http://www.ncagr gov/SWC/tech/guidancedocumen
ts.html.
Nitrogen Leaching Index Values
Nitrogen Leaching Index values. obtained through
use of current Soil Hydrologic Group (SHG)-based
LI index maps in Sec II of the NC FOTG or RUSLE
2 field -specific soil loss calculations, are included
in the Nutrient Management 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 Nitrogen Leaching 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.soil.ncsu.eduhndex.htm
Where manure is applied, farm records may also
be used through a procedure provided in SB 1217
Interagency Group guidance, available at:
htti. //www.ncagr.gov/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 ALplication
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).
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:

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
phosrtorus AND nitrogen loss risks. Application
management techniques to reduce nutrient loss
risk may be prescribed below.
NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 page 3

Lon Term Strateciy 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 crop
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:
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.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The producer is responsible for safe operation and
maintenance of this practice, including all
equipment. Review the plan periodically to
determine if adjustments or modifications to the
plan are needed. In NC, animal operations
permitting provisions may specify more frequent
review periods. Adhere to the following operation
and maintenance provisions:
• Protect fertilizer and organic by-product
storage facilities from weather and accidental
leakage or spillage.
• Properly calibrate application equipment to
ensure uniform distribution of material at
planned rates.
• Workers should be protected from and avoid
unnecessary contact with inorganic fertilizers
and organic by-products. Extra caution must
be taken when handling ammonia sources of
nutrients, or when dealing with organic wastes
stored in unventilated enclosures.
• The disposal of material generated by the
cleaning of nutrient application equipment
should be accomplished properly. Excess
material should be collected and stored or field
applied in an appropriate manner. Excess
material should not be applied on areas of high
potential risk for runoff or leaching.
• Disposal or recycling of nutrient containers
should be done according to state and local
guidelines or regulations.

Please review the attached plan and specifications carefully. 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.

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:
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.
