Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian. Primary Secondary Routine Mortality Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours of knowledge of animal death. The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public body of water (G.S.106-403). The bottom of the burial pit should beat least one foot above the seasonal high water table. Attach burial location map and plan. Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC 1313.0200. Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7. Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102. A composting system approved and permitted by the NC Department of Agriculture sumer Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed & Con - additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ. off -farm, In the case of dead poultry only, placing in a disposal pit of a size and design approved by the NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (G.S. 106-549.70). Any method which, in the professional opinion of the State Veterinarian, would make possible the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or animal health. (Written approval by the State Veterinarian must be attached). 71 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. ignature of Farm Owner/Manager Signa e of Technical Specialist Date Date WA Nutrient Management Plan For Animal Waste Utilization This plan has been prepared for: CHRISTOPHER YAKLIN CHIRSTOPHER YAKLIN 929 WEST HWY 73 ELLERBE, NC 28338 910-652-9265 08-29-2008 This plan has been developed by: Vilma Mendez Colombani AIRCS 123 Caroline St., Suite 300 Rockingham, NC 28379 910-997-8244 Ext, 3 Developer Signature Type of Plan: Nutrient Management with Both Manure and Fertilizer Owner/Manager/Producer Agreement I (we) understand and agree to the specifications and the operation and maintenance procedures established in this nutrient management plan which includes an animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above.

This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and crops for each year of the plan. Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements and soil test results, The quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified. The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity of other nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other byproducts are utilized to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field. In such situations, additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount ofcopper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85. By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal. In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample.

STV Pal�,c Page I of I The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period, 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 of the 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 greater than 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 capacity, 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 utilization 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, 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 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. --- - --- ---- -- - ---- -- -- --------- - - 208321 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 8/29/2008 - Spe - cification Page I 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. 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 that 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 property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted 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. 208321 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 8/29/2008 Spe-cification Page 2- 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 he 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 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. 208321 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 8/29/2008 Specification Page 3 NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION N.C. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 Prepared for: C ph& �, 4vp A e r- Vq i�' I,, jJ By:_ Farm: --Tract: Date:-��-!�J is -,2 a WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT? The conservation practice, Nutrient Management, is managing the amount, source, placement, form and timing of the application of nutrients and soil amendments to achieve realistic production goals, while minimizing nutrient movement to surface or ground waters. The practice, Waste Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as manure or wastewater in an environmentally sound manner. These practices are jointly accomplished through the development of a Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan, which is normally part of a broader Conservation Plan that addresses multiple natural resource concerns on the land. PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES Your nutrient management/waste utilization plan is intended to accomplish one or more of the following objectives: • To budget nutrients for plant production. • To properly utilize manure or organic by- products as a plant nutrient source. • To minimize the delivery of agricultural nutrients to surface and ground water resources. To maintain or improve the physical, chemical, and biological condition of the soil. To utilize agricultural wastes for livestock feed or as an energy source. CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT / WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN The information provided in this Job Sheet and the attachments meet the minimum requirements for a Nutrient Management Plan for USDA-NRCS purposes. This Nutrient Management Plan includes: 1 A plan map and soils map for the area planned (these may be part of the overall Conservation Plan). 2. Location of designated sensitive areas or resources (streams, wells, sinkholes, etc.) and any associated nutrient application setbacks, etc. 3. Your planned crop rotation. 4. Results of soil, plant, water tests. 5. Results from Phosphorus Loss Assessment Too[ (PLAT) or Leaching Index (LI) as required. 6. Realistic yield expectations for the crops in the rotation, and their source if other than default values approved for N.C. 7. Recommended nutrient application rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as timing, form, NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page I and method of application and incorporation, if applicable. 8. This Job Sheet (or comparable information), that provides the following: General requirements of this practice, as well as additional requirements to meet the natural resource protection purposes listed above. Additional considerations specific to this plan. Operation and maintenance information associated with this practice. Because this Nutrient Management Plan includes agricultural organic sources, additional items are required in the plan to ensure proper waste utilization: • Waste Utilization Agreement (if applicable) • Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement (if applicable) • Additional engineering design and operating information for waste storage structures, transport, and application system, as applicable. These designs, and the instructions for operating these structures, is an integral component of your overall Nutrient Management/ Waste Utilization Plan. • Emergency Action Plan to prevent overtopping or other discharges from storage structures or facilities, as applicable. This plan was developed based on the current NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal, state, or local regulations or policies. Changes in laws or regulations may necessitate a revision of the plan. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE UTILIZATION General All manure and organic residues must be applied according to a nutrient management plan (see the following section, "BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT") You are required to acquire and comply with all federal, state, or local permit requirements related to the handling and application of manure or organic materials. The nutrient management/waste utilization plan must address all organic waste generated at or brought to the facility. A Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement must exist to address all organic waste not handled by the nutrient management/waste utilization plan. Manure or organic wastes will not be applied to the following areas: • surface waters, • wetlands, unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system, • soils subject to frequent flooding during the period when flooding is expected, • frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soils, • within 200 feet of a dwelling other than those owned by the producer, • within 100 feet of a well, • within 25 feet of surface waters, or • within any other setbacks as identified by federal, state, or local laws or regulations (e.g. NC General Statute prevents swine lagoon effluent from being applied within 75 feet of a residential property boundary or perennial stream or river if the facility was sited on or after October 1995.) Manure or organic wastes will be applied in a manner not to reach surface waters, wetlands (unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system), property owned by others, or public right- of-way. Sludge that accumulates in waste storage structures must be analyzed prior to land NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 2 application. Adequate provisions (available land and/or third party manure agreements) must exist to ensure sludge is applied in adherence to all nutrient application requirements. All federal and state guidance regarding the proper testing, handling, planning, and application of sludge must be followed for regulated operations. Since compliance with all applicable North Carolina laws is the responsibility of the producer, you should consult the most current version of the Guidance Memo for Implementing the Environmental Management Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste Management for questions. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other organic residues used for feedstock must be handled in a manner to minimize contamination and preserve its feed value, Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall develop rations that utilize animal wastes. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY If your facility is to be used for energy production, all energy producing components of the system are included in the Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan and provisions for the utilization of residues of energy production identified. Your Nutrient Management Plan includes the use of these residues, if applicable. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT General Application of nutrients must comply with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The realistic yield expectations (RYEs) in this plan are based on one or more of the following: Default values approved by the N.C. Interagency Nutrient Management Committee that incorporate soil productivity information, yield data, and research with North Carolina soils, and cropping systems. Additional information on the default values may be found at: www.soil.ncsu.edulnmpincnmkqlindex.h Documented actual yield data from the site, determined by the average of the highest three yields of the last five consecutive specific crop harvests. (For forage crops, determine the average of the highest three years of the last five years.) A fertilization rate recommended by North Carolina State University may be used in cases where no yield data or approved RYE values exist for a crop. An RYE inferred from a similar crop on a soil with similar physical and chemical features may be used for new crops or in the absence of other RYE data. This inferred RYE may ONLY be specified by a certified Nutrient Management planner. Erosion, runoff, and water management controls have been planned, as needed, on fields that receive nutrients. Soil Testing This nutrient management plan has been developed based on current soil test results (no older than three years). Soil samples must be collected and prepared in accordance with North Carolina State University or the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) Agronomic Division standards or recommendations, NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 3 Soil test analyses can be performed by any laboratory or program that is certified by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of Water Quality, Laboratory Section, NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing. Growers who utilize other laboratories must request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology to ensure the test results are compatible with North Carolina's nutrient management planning and assessment tools. For statewide consistency, all laboratories used must provide fertilization recommendations using guidelines and methodologies as referenced at the NCDA&CS website: www.ncaqr.comla.gronamilabook.htm Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory that is supported by field research within the state. Soil testing shall include analysis for all nutrients for which specific information is needed to develop the nutrient plan. Plant Tissue Testing Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall be done in accordance with North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS standards or recommendations. Manure Testing Nutrient values of manure and organic by- products shall be established for planning purposes based on laboratory analysis, acceptable default values, or historic records for the operation. When determining actual application rates, a laboratory analysis is required. State regulations -require that waste be tested within 60 days of utilization for some operations. In the case of daily spreading, the waste must be sampled and analyzed at least once a year. Acceptable laboratories include the NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others certified by the NCDENR. Field Risk Assessment A field -specific assessment of the potential for phosphorus transport from each field (or groups of similar fields) have been conducted, using the North Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) PLAT assesses the potential for phosphorus (P) to be transported from the site to surface water through each of the four primary loss pathways: • sediment -bound P transported through erosion, • soluble P transported through surface runoff, • soluble P leached through the soil profile, and non -incorporated source P transported through surface runoff. Based on the assessment of each loss pathway, PLAT produces a single rating for each field. As shown below, this rating will identify whether nitrogen or phosphorus shall be the rate -determining element in developing the planned application rate for manure. PLAT Rating Nutrient Application Criteria LOW Nitrogen -based manure MEDIUM -application. Nitrogen -based manure application. HIGH Manure application limited to phosphorus removal from site in harvested plant biomass. VERY HIGH No additional manure application to be specified in plan for the site. On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers may be recommended in accordance with NCSU guidelines or recommendations. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 4 In some cases, specific conservation practices nutrients that exceeds the soil test that reduce the potential for phosphorus recommendation. transport have been incorporated into PLAT. Examples include buffers or filter strips, When the plan is being implemented ponds, water table management, and residue on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT management and conservation tillage. rating of High or Very High), manure Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or or other organic by-products shall be planned, have been incorporated into your applied at rates consistent with the PLAT analysis. This information is shown on phosphorus application guidance the PLAT results enclosed. Because the below. In such situations, an management of the site actually affects the additional nitrogen application from PLAT rating, all practices identified on the non -organic sources may be required PLAT analysis (including any required to to supply nitrogen at the rate achieve the -specified erosion rate) must be recommended by the RYE. either already installed or included in a Conservation Plan for the Nutrient Within the limits allowed by PLAT, Management Plan to be approved. manure or other organic by-products may be applied on soybeans at rates Nutrient Application Rates equal to the estimated removal of nitrogen in harvested plant biomass. Recommended nutrient application rates are based on North Carolina State University or All nitrogen rates for hay production NCDA&CS recommendations that consider are for pure grass stands. Due to the current soil test results, RYEs, and nutrient recycling by grazing animals, management. the planned nitrogen rate per unit yield for hay crops shall be reduced Liming material shall be applied as needed to by 25% for the portion of the expected adjust soil pH to the specific range required by yield that is removed through grazing. the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum availability and utilization of nutrients. Phosphorus Application — When manure or other organic by-products The application amount and rate (in/hr) for are used, the planned rates of liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation) phosphorus application shall be based shall not result in runoff from the site. The on the PLAT rating for the site, as application shall not exceed the field capacity follows: of the soil. Low or Medium Rating — The The planned rates of nutrient application are planned manure or organic by - shown on the attached sheets.

Nitrogen Application - When the plan is High Rating — The planned nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or manure or organic by-product Medium), the application rate of manure or application rate is limited to the organic by-products shall be based on the phosphorus removal rate of the recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE harvested plant biomass. for the site (or a rate recommended by NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops Very High Rating — No additional without established RYEs). This may manure or organic by-product result in an application rate for other application is specified in the plan. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 5 On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium may be recommended in accordance with North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. A single application of phosphorus applied as manure or organic by-product may be made at a rate equal to the recommended phosphorus application or estimated phosphorus removal in harvested plant biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. When such single applications are made, the rate shall: * not exceed the recommended nitrogen application rate during the year of application, or + not exceed the estimated nitrogen removal in harvested plant bio- mass during the year of application when there is no recommended nitrogen application, or * not be made on sites with a Very High PLAT risk rating. Potassium Application — Planned potassium application rates should match the soil test recommended rates as closely as possible. (This is particularly critical in situations where a potentially harmful nutrient imbalance in crops or forages may occur, such as grass tetany). When using manure or other organic sources, the addition of potassium from non -organic sources may be required. Other Plant Nutrients - The planned rates of application of other nutrients if applicable are consistent with North Carolina State University or the NCDA&CS guidelines or recommendations. Nutrient Application Timing Timing of nutrient application shall correspond as closely as possible with plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while considering cropping system limitations, weather and climatic conditions, and field accessibility. Nutrients shall not be applied to frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soil. Manure or organic by-products shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. For nutrients applied through irrigation systems, application equipment should be properly calibrated to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates Plan Review and Revision Period A thorough review and revision (if needed) of the nutrient management plan shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not to exceed five years. Heavy Metals Monitoring For animal waste, including sludge, zinc and copper concentrations shall be monitored and alternative crop sites for application shall be sought when these metals approach excessive concentrations. The following criteria and actions are provided: ZINC Mehlich-3 Index Action IKRZ!l 300 (21 lbs/ac) Peanuts are very sensitive to zinc, and application on peanuts should be limited. Seek alternative sites when possible. The risk of zinc toxicity is greater with low soil pH and has been seen at Zn-1 as low as 300. * 500 (35 lbs/ac) Critical toxic level for peanuts.

Additional information on heavy metal criteria for sewage sludge may be found in Land Application of Sewage Sludge, EPA/831-B-93-002b publication number at: httD.,11www. ei)a. qov1nDdes1Pubs/s1udqe.o ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MINIMIZING DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO SURFACE AND GROUND WATER In areas that have been identified as impaired with agricultural nutrients being a likely source, an assessment shall be completed of the potential for nitrogen or phosphorus transport from the site. (The streams/water bodies in this category are listed in the USDA- NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, Section 1.) NO This nutrient management plan IS NOT in an area where surface waters are impaired, with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is not required. YES This nutrient management plan IS 'in an area where surface waters are impaired with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is included in this plan. While the results of the LI does not affect your planned nutrient application rates, some additional conservation practices may be specified in the plan to reduce the risk of nutrient movement from the field, if applicable. IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING NUTRIENTS Nitrogen and phosphorus are water soluble elements and either or both may be components of organic and inorganic fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can move with water as leachate down through the soil, or over the soil surface as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and phosphorus exist in different forms and may move through different transport processes on the same site, they both can have detrimental effects on both surface and shallow ground water quality. As an example, excess nutrients can result in accelerated eutrophication with severe algal blooms and fish kills. Because of the topography, hydrology, and other factors in the state, the environmental problems from excess nutrients reaching surface water may not be exhibited near the contributing source, but rather create water quality problems far downstream. Consequently, the Neuse River Basin, Tar-Parnlico Basin, the Chowan River, the watershed of the B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the watershed of the New River in Onslow County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive waters in North Carolina. Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or organic material is transformed into nitrate and can move with the water moving downward into the shallow ground water and eventually to surface waters. (Relatively small amounts of nitrogen reach our surface waters through rainfall runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 7 required part of the nutrient management plan in some areas of the state with surface water impairments. The LI uses soils information and local climate data to assess the potential hazard from leaching of nutrients, The results of the Ll analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. Phosphorus: Research in recent decades indicates that, with high soil phosphorus levels, phosphorus has more potential to be transported off -site than recognized in the past. Phosphorus can be transported in several ways: (1) attached to soil particles leaving the field through erosion, (2) in soluble form leaving the field in surface runoff, and (3) in soluble form leaching downward through the soil profile, and eventually into surface water. Unlike nitrogen, the most likely transport pathway for phosphorus varies by site, and depends upon such factors as soil erosion rate, soil phosphorus levels, texture of soils, existence of buffers, and other factors. In N.C., PLAT is the tool used to assess potential excessive phosphorus losses. The results of the PLAT analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. If a site receives a PLAT rating of Low or Medium, then applying manure at rates based on the nitrogen needs of the crop is allowed. It is important to realize that this may result in phosphorus being applied at rates that significantly exceed the crop's phosphorus removal rate. In these cases, the planned nutrient application rate is not sustainable, and eventually a PLAT rating of High may be reached. OPERATION & MAINTENANCE You are responsible for safe operation and maintenance of this practice, including all equipment. The following Operation & Maintenance should be conducted: 1 Review the plan annually to determine if adjustments or modifications to the plan are needed. (The S.B. 1217 interagency group guidelines accepted by the N.C. Division of Water Quality for .0200 operations specify a plan revision when there are changes in crops or cropping patterns that utilize more than 25 percent of the nitrogen generated by the operation.) As a minimum, nutrient management plans shall be thoroughly reviewed every five years and revised if necessary. The next review will be performed in /d - � — _� 0 13. 2. Protect fertilizer and organic by- product storage facilities from weather and accidental leakage or spillage. 3. Ensure proper calibration of application equipment to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates. 4. Inspect and maintain the equipment and facilities used to implement the Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization, Plan regularly. Any needed repairs should be made in a timely manner. 5. Review the Emergency Action Plan, if applicable, annually. 6. Records should be maintained for five years, or for a period as required by other Federal, state, or local ordinances, or program or contract requirements. To ensure adequate information exists to support sound nutrient management, NRCS recommends the following records be included: 0 Soil test results and recommendations for nutrient application, Quantities, analyses and sources of nutrients applied (When the actual rates used exceed the recommended and planned rates on inorganic fertilizer plans, NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 8 records should indicate the reasons for the differences, e.g. inability to acquire custom blended fertilizer.) Dates and method of nutrient applications, Crops planted, planting and harvest dates, yields, and crop residues removed, Results of water, plant, and organic by- product analyses, and Dates of review and person performing the review, and recommendations that resulted from the review. NOTE: State laws or regulations may define record -keeping requirements for some operations. Ensure that workers are protected from and avoid unnecessary contact with inorganic fertilizers and organic by- products. Protection should include the use of protective clothing when working with plant nutrients. Extra caution must be taken when handling ammonia sources of nutrients, or when dealing with organic wastes stored in poorly ventilated enclosures. 8. Properly dispose of material generated by the cleaning of nutrient application equipment. 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. 9. Properly dispose of or recycle nutrient containers according to state and local guidelines or regulations.

DESIGNED BY: -a 4 4-9x� APPROVED BY: DATE: DATE: NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN COMMENTS: C00101261580 rl rl - �:g System Calibration Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring. For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance. *Reprinted for Certification Training for Operations of Animal Waste Management Systems Manual OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN Proper lagoon management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods. Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as a thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means that at the first sign of plant growth in the later winter / early spring, irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land in dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer / early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste utilization plan will allow it. Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigated does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of state law and subject to penalty action. The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following: Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam. Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilized applied should be based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain a soils test each year. the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent. Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by mowing, spraying. grazing, chopping, or a combination of these practices. This should be done at least once a year and possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for heavy vegetative growth. NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying. the herbicide must not be allowed to enter the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating the waste. Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be checked should include, as a minimum, the following: Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes -- look for: 1. separation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumulation of salts or minerals 4. overall condition of pipes Lagoon surface -- look for: 1. undesirable vegetative growth 2. floating or lodged debris Embankment -- look for: 1 . settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes 2. side slope stability -- slumps or bulges 3. wet or damp areas on the back slope 4. erosion due to lack or vegetation or as a result of wave action 5. rodent damage Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be used to reduce the wave impacts. Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless recommended by an appropriate technical expert. Transfer Pumps -- check for proper operation of: 1. recycling pumps 2. irrigation pumps Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need of repair or replacement. NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time to think about switching, repairing, or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare parts or pumps. Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing (washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system for the following: 1. adequate vegetation 2. diversion capacity 3. ridge berm height Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts. You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount (you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may have an overflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the lagoon from the surrounding land. Lagoon Operation Startup: 1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil surfaces to avoid erosion. 2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes. 3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining. 4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather). 5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon liquid volume. This seeding should occur at least two weeks prior to the addition of wastewater. 6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below 7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid pH is between 7.5 and 8.0. 7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season. Loading: The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained and recharged each day, also work well. • Practice water conservation --- minimize building water usage and spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and water conservation. • Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon. Management: Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full temporary storage level. Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid level. (Figure 2-1). Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer / early fall to provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter. The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the dam or embankment. • Don not pump the lagoon liquid level lower than the permanent storage level unless you are removing sludge. • Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible. Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon. • Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or wherever they are installed. • Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges. • Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment. • Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume. • If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge. Sludge Removal: Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by: 5 • proper lagoon sizing, • mechanical solids separation of flushed waste, • gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or • minimizing feed wastage and spillage. Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will: • have more nutrients, • have more odor, and • require more land to properly use the nutrients. Removal techniques: Hire a custom applicator. Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper - agitator impeller pump through large - bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge: berm an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or forageland, and soil incorporate. Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3. When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as possible. Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphors, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value. The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site. Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which could increase the concern of neighbors. Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include: • Modification of the lagoon structure -- an example is the placement of a pipe in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.) • Lagoon liquid levels — high levels are a safety risk. • Failure to inspect and maintain the dam. • Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon. Liner integrity -- protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table. NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.
