WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
______________________
PRODUCER: PRESTAGE FARMS COUNTY:SAMPSON
LOCATION: CLINTON NC
TYPE OF OPERATION ---------- VAR -WEAN
NUMBER OF ANIMALS ---------: 2000
AMOUNT OF ANIMAL WASTEPRODUCED----------------�: 1218G tons/year
AMOUNT OLANT F PAVAILABLE N PRODUCED BY ANIMALS-: -10800 lbs./year
COMMERCIAL N TO APPLY ON PLANNED ACREAGE--------: 0 lbs./year
Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically
developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the
soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for
your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
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 and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forage
breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve
nutrients and reduce,odor problems. This plan is based on waste
application through irrigation for this is the manner in which
you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject
the waste in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient
levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste are not the
same.

� NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over -
applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996 the
Coastal Zone Management Act will'require farmers in some eastern
/ counties of NC to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
'—� all nutrients. This plan only addresses Nitrogen.
In interolanted fields (i.e. small qrain, interseeded in
bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or
silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a
height of 6 to Klnches. Cattle should be removed when plants are
grazed to a height of 4 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 definitely interfere with the stand of
bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and
less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for
hay or silage just before heading as is normal situation, you are
encouraged to cut the small grain earlier" You may want t�
�
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the
season, depending on time small grain is planted in the fall. The
ideal time to interplant small grain, etcv is late September or
early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting.
Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about 2
inches before drilling for best results.
Caution must be excercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
understressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is
'—\ recommended.
Acres shown in the table are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas
unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full
application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres
in the fields may, and most likely will be, more than the acres
shown in the table.
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.
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 waste beino stored
in your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the di>
{ If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this
plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and the irrigation
designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to
| properly irrigate the acres shown in the table. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table
may make this plan invalid.

Mortality Management Methods
which method(s) will be implemented.
When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option.
Methods other than (hose listed must'be approved by the State Veterinarian.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
a 0 Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours of knowledge of animal
death. The burial must beat 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.
El1:1 Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC
13B .0200.
Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102.
1 r/( a A composting system approved and permitted by �e 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.
a 0 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 opinionjof 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).
Mass Mortality Plan
Mass mortality plans are required forfarms 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
7,09 when numbers of dead animals exceed normal mortality rates as specified by the State
APR Veterinarian.
wta g• Burial must bebdone 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.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
Tres -lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor control. The
tme required for the planned fluid level to be reached may vary due to sbil
onditions, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the
/,�Osy
stem.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of p' dis-
posal-* Methods of application include hone wagons p a
Y g (sprayer or injection) and
irrigation (center pivot, guns, or travelers). Care needs to be taken whenapplying waste to prevent damage to crops or runoff from the field.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level is 1 foot below the
outlet pipes.
2. Stop pump -out before fluid depth is less than 3 feet deep (this
prevents the loss of favorable bacteria).
3. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be prechar ed `
to 2 its capacity to g
P Y prevent excessive odors during startup. Pre-
charg.ng reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering
the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with
of l luent at all times.
4. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon
mowed.
5. Repair any eroded areas and establish in vegetation.
6. Recommend that a suitable fence be constructed around the lagoon
for safety purposes.
7. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants
into waters of the United States. The Department of Natural
Resources and Community Development (.DNRCD) - Wastewater Management
Section has the responsibility for enforcing this law:
g. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the, lagoon to adequate outlets.

This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days o+ temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh wa�er added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1> waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume �ust always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) fromti t
building(s) If the outlet pipe is not installed at the eleva on o

runoff or leachihg.
Land app1ication of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
PPEthod of disposal. Methods ofapplication include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried
