overflowina, 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. Tlds plan should be posted in an accessible location for
all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take.
I - Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation. this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to so -
me possible problems are listed befow.
A. Laeoon 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 enterinc, laeoon.
B: Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
a. Irrumediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and elirainate the reason(s) that caused the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred,
C: Leak-aLe from the waste pipes and sp rinklers -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close v�lves to eliminate further discharge.
d. Repair all lealks prior to restarting pumps.
ID: Ldakaae from flush 5,%-stems. houses. solid

a. Stop recxle DUMP.
b. Stop irnication pump.
z. Make sure no siphon occurs

e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
E: Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to
flowin-0 leaks- possible action:
a- Dig.a small sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage.
put in a submersible pump. anj pump back to lagoon.
b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals. trap -
or remove animals and flil
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lazoon
bottom as soon as possible.
21. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how mu'ch was released and for whatduration?
c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Di� the spr1I leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potentfal to reach surface waters?
f.- Could a future rain event cause the spiU to reach surface waters?
Are potable water wells in'danger (either on or off of the roperty)?
h. How much reached surface walers? p
3: Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality)
rezional office; Phone - - . After hours, emergency number: 919-t-J-3942.
Your phone call should include: your name, facility, telephone number, the details
of the incident from item 2 above, the exact location of the facility, the location or
direction of movement of the spill, weather and wind conditions. 'The corrective
measures that have been under taken, and the seriousness of the situation.
b. If spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS Phone number
c. Inst ruct EMS to contact local Health Department.
d. Contact CES, phone number - - , local SWCD office phone number
and local NRCS office for advice/technical assistance phone number -
4: If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your
problem to them and ask that petson to contact the proper agencies for you. '
3: Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair of problem to minimize off -site

Mortality Management Methods
When Indicate which method(s) will be implemented.
Methoselect'ng multiple methods indicate a Primary versus secondary option.
ds other than those listed
must be Wroved 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 be at 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
13B .0200.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7.
Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
A comPosting sYstern 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.
ID
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).
FI 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 animal$ 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. 100-399.4.
