This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and ps or each year of the plan. 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 ltuatimions, ited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field. In such si 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 of copper 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.

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. --------------------------- -- --- - ---- - - --- ___ ------------------------ --------------------- 521061 Database Version 3.1 -- Si ---------- -- ------ ate Printed: 5/13/2011 Specification Pale 1 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. ---------------------------------------- -- _____ ---------------------------------- ----- - -- -- -- - - 521061 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/13/2011 Specification 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 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 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. ---------------- --- 521061 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/13/2011 Specification Page 3 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 3 Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained. Adaptation: Well -adapted. In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3" deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced V to 1.5' in row. For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus, potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in the establishment year in split applications in April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 240 lb/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts. Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing.

Gavin Thompson Farm:11460 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. You are encouraged to develop a Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP), which addresses all resource concerns on your animal operation. 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 and supply nutrients for plant production. • To properly utilize manure or organic by- products as a plant nutrient source. • To minimize agricultural nonpoint source pollution of surface and ground water resources. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) Tract: 10941 Date: 5 13 11 —/ J • 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. • To protect air quality by reducing nitrogen emissions and the formation of atmospheric particulates 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 P Ian). 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 Tool (PLAT) or Leaching Index (LI) as required. page 1 6. Realistic yield expectations for the crops in the rotation, and their so urce if other than default values approved for N.C. 7. Recommended nutrient application rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as timing, form, and method of application and incorporation, if applicable. 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 for non - owned or leased land (if applicable) Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement (if applicable) (Note: this will be Exhibit B found in NRCS standard 633 if for conservation planning/CNMP purposes and may additionally include third -party documentation guidance given by the 1217 interagency Cmte and/or NC Manure Hauler Regs.) 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, are 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. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) 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 acq uire 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. Producers are advised that all agricultural wastes that are applied on land owned or controlled by the producer shall be included in a waste management plan. Signed third -party applicator agreements do not preclude the requirement of a waste management plan for waste applied on land owned or controlled by the producer. Manure haulers must be in compliance with all aspects of Section .1400 of 15A NCAC 02T. 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 25 feet of perennial waters • within 200 feet of a dwelling other than those owned by the producer, • within 100 feet of a well, • within any other setbacks as identified by federal, state, or local laws or regulations Current applicable setbacks for operations defined by Sec. 1300 of 15A NCAC 02T (formerly 2H.0200 thresholds) are available at the NC DSWC Senate Bill 1217 web site: We ://www.enr.state.nc.us/DSWC/. a:;es/;uid_a_ nce dogs. html page 2 For operations that hold either State or NPDES permits, application setbacks set forth by that facility's permit must be observed at all times. Recent NCSU research indicates that acutely acidic soil conditions contribute to high levels of water solubility of soil P reactive products when organic waste P is applied. Thus, when soil tests show that pH is below soil target pH and lime is recommended, soils should be limed to increase soil pH to soil target levels prior to application of organic waste materials. Target pHs as established by NCDA Agronomic Division are 5.0 for Organic soil class (ORG), 5.5 for Mineral -Organic soil class (M-O), and range from 6.0 to 6.5 for Mineral soil class (MIN) depending on the crop. 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 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 1217 Interagency Guidance Documents for answers to frequently asked questions. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other organic residues used f or 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 in supplemental feed. 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. ADDITIONAL REQUIRMENTS FOR PINE FOREST APPLICATION When land receiving waste is predominantly pine forest, organic fertilization must be a part of forestry management plan developed by a qualified professional. Nutrients should not be applied to pi ne forests that are composed of organic or poorly drained mineral soils. For pine plantations, do not apply nitrogen during the first five years after planting. Do not exceed 60 Ibs PAN/acre/year on pine forestland, and on long -leaf pine do not exceed 30 Ibs PAN/acre/year due to increased disease pressure caused by Nitrogen application. Higher PAN application rates on pine forestland may be approved in situations where concentrated short-term waste applications may be necessary, such as lagoon closures or lagoon sludge management. Annual soil tests, taken at a 0"-6" sampling depth, must be completed in pine forest application area to help determine potential for P leaching. If soil test agronomic P indices are above 50, then no additional waste application should occur on forestland. A phosphorous loss assessment (PLAT) is not needed for forestland receiving waste materials. Negative impacts to streams, wetlands, and riparian buffers must be avoided when Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) page 3 applying waste materials, and appropriate application setbacks must be observed. 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 o r 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 soi Is, and cropping systems. Additional information on the default values may be found at: http.-Ilnutrients.soil.ncsu.edu 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. When land receiving waste from a confined animal feeding operation is grazed by livestock, nutrients from any off -site forage should be accounted for in the nutrient management plan and quantified in approved recordkeeping forms. 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. Soil test analyses can be performed by any laboratory or program that is certified by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDE NR), Division of Water Quality, Laboratory Section. NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing. Growers who utilize other laboratories m ust 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 NCDACS website: www.nca.-,,r.comlaQronomilobook.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. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) page 4 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. I n the case of daily spreading, the waste must be sampled and analyzed at least once a year. Acceptable laboratories incl ude 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 owned, controlled or leased by the producer in the waste management plan (or groups of similar fields) has been conducted, using the North Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT). Additional Information on PLAT can be found at the NC Nutrient Management website: hft .-Anufrienfs.soil.ncsu.edu/ PLAT assesses the potential for phosphorus (P) to be transported f rom 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 I Nitrogen -based manure MEDIUM I Nitrogen -based manure HIGH Manure application limited to phosphorus removal from site in harvested plant biomass. VERY HIGH No additional manure or starter P 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. Current NCSU recommendations are that no starter P is to be applied to soils or sites that have Very High PLAT ratings. In some cases, specific conservation practices that reduce the potential for phosphorus transport have been incorporated into PLAT. Examples include buffers or filter strips, ponds, water table management, and residue management and conservation tillage. Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or planned, have been incorporated into your PLAT analysis. This information is shown on the PLAT results enclosed. Because the management of the site actually affects the PLAT rating, all practices identified on the PLAT analysis (including any required to achieve the specified erosion rate) must be either already installed or included in a Conservation Plan for the Nutrient Management Plan to be approved. Research results have show n that alum or other similar compounds may bind to phosphate in poultry litter, thus making phosphorous less susceptible to losses in runoff where litter is applied. It is important to note that PLAT does not currently recognize treatment of poultry litter with any additive as having a "reducing" effect on P loss. These products have also been show n to reduce ammonia levels in poultry houses. Nutrient Application Rates Recommended nutrient application rates are based on North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS recommendations that consider Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) page 5 current soil test results, RYEs, and management. Liming material shall be applied as needed to adjust soil pH to the specific range required by the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum availability and utilization of nutrients. The application amount and rate (in/hr) for liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation) shall not result in runoff from the site. The application shall not exceed the field capacity of the soil. The planned rates of nutrient application are shown on the attached sheets. These rates have been computed as follows: Nitrogen Application - When the plan is nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or Medium), the application rate of manure or organic by-products shall be based on the recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE for the site (or a rate recommended by NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops without established RYEs). This may result in an application rate for other nutrients that exceeds the soi I test recommendation. When the plan is being implemented on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT rating of High or Very High), manure or other organic by-products shall be applied at rates consistent with the phosphorus application guidance below. In such situations, an additional nitrogen application from non -organic sources may be required to supply nitrogen at the rate recommended by the RYE. • Within the limits allowed by PLAT, manure or other organic by-products may be applied on soybeans at rates equal to the estimated removal of nitrogen in harvested plant biomass. All nitrogen rates for hay production are for pure grass stands. Due to the nutrient recycling by grazing animals, the planned nitrogen rate per unit yield for hay crops shall be reduced by 25% for the portion of the expected yield that is removed through grazing. • Phosphorus Application — When manure or other organic by-products are used, the planned rates of phosphorus application shall be based on the PLAT rating for the site, as follows: Low or Medium Rating — The planned manure or organic by-product application rate is based on the nitrogen needs of the crop. High Rating — The planned manure or organic by-product application rate is limited to the phosphorus removal rate of the harvested plant biomass. Very High Rating — No additional manure, organic by-product,or.starte r P application is specified in the plan. 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. Starter fertilizers must be accounted for in the nutrient management plan as part of the nutrient balance for the crop. Current NCSU recommendations are that no starter P is to be applied to soils or sites that have Very High PLAT ratings. 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. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) page 6 • Potassium Application — Planned potassium application rates should match the soil test recommended rates ZINC Mehlich-3 Index Action 300 (21 Ibs/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-I as low as 300. * 500 (35 Ibs/ac) Critical toxic level for peanuts. Cease application on peanuts. 2,000 (142 Ibs/ac) Caution: Seek alternative sites when possible for all crops. * 3,000 (213 Ibs/ac) Critical toxic level for all crops. Cease application for all crops. COPPER Mehlich-3 Index Action (Cu-I) _ 2,000 (72 Ibs/ac) Caution: Seek altemative sites when possible for all crops. * 3,000 (108 Ibs/ac) Critical toxic level for all crops. Cease application on all crops. * * Maintain pH at 6.0 on _ these sites. 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, Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) 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 shal I be conducted on a regular cycle, not to exceed five years. State and/or NPDES permitting conditions may require more frequent plan reviews and/or revisions. For NPDES operations, changes to the plan m ay trigger Permit revision process. 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: When sewage sludge is applied, the accumulation of potential pollutants (including arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, selenium, and zinc) in the soil shall be monitored in accordance with the US Code, Reference 40 CFR, Parts 403 and 503, and applicable state and local laws or regulations. Additional information on heavy metal criteria for sewage sludge may be found in Land Application of Sewage Sludge, E PA/831-B-93-002b publication number at: http://www. eoa. govinpdes/pubs/sluctqe.,o ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MINIMIZING DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO SURFACE AND GROUNDWATER In areas that have been identified as impaired with agricultural nutrients being a li kely source, an assessment shall be completed of page 7 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 I, and the list is also available in the NCA NAT software.) ✓❑ 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 do 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 a component 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. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590/633 (February 2009) Consequently, the Neuse River Basin, Tar - Pamlico 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 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 LI 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 th at significantly exceeds 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. page 8 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 "Sec .1300" 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.) For NPDES operations, plan revisions may trigger permitting process that includes public review of NMP/WUP. As a minimum, nutrient management plans shall be thoroughly reviewed every five years and revised if necessary. The next review will be performed in ;2 01(". 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: 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, records should indicate the reasons for the differences, e.g. inability to acquire custom blended fertilizer.) Dates and method of nutrient applications, 7. 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. • Properly dispose of or recycle nutrient containers according to state and local guidelines or regulations. • 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 and federal permitting requirements or regulations may define record -keeping requirements for some operations.

ElAny 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). aMass 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. 1�u Z ," / 3-,,27-11 Signature of Farm Owner/Manager Date Z, Signature of Technical Specialist Date Lt1tTVV1V iJL.71V1V 0, ,ator:LAMB FARMS County: SAMPSON Date: JAMES LAMB !as the site evaluation been completed & approved: YES 1.

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 water 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 yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a heavy rain factor. 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 heavy rain factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to maintain the liquid level between these markers. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such.as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application 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 out: 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be charged to 1/2 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 50.60 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 48.00 . This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 66761 cubic feet or 499369 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximums amount to apply per irrigation and recommended maximum application rate is shown_in the waste utilization plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. b. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop. B. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the joints. 9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris. 10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage. 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic rates based'on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times. 12. In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address animal operations. These rules became effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water and irrigation intakes must be placed 1S inches below the surface and as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible:in order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors when, irrigating on land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer. SHEET 1 OF 3 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ---------------------------------------------------------- FOUNDATION PREPARATION: ----------------------- The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: ----------------------------------- The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. -Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "cheepsfoot" or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be in accord- ance with the specified requirements for"compaction and moisture. For the embankmentr , use the more impervious materials from, the required excavations. Construction o+ fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of. 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL.BE 1.6 ft. ------ ------------------------------------------------- NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a NRCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGAtION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF Soil liner- material shall come from an approved borrow area. The .minimum. water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall. .be added to borrow as necessary to.insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material unless otherwise specified. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted per ine- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient -construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall -be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: -------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to,the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS ------------------------------- When specified, the contractor shall construct an observation trench along the entire length of the embankment to a minimum of five fleet in depth. The trench shall have a bottom width adequate to accomodate the equipment used for excavation, backfill, and compaction operations SHEET 3 OF 3 and the side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. When tile drains are encountered, the tile shall be removed to a minimum of 15 feet beyond the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular to the embankment. If a tile line exists above the embankment it shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location. Backfilling and compaction in the trench shall be in accordance with the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements. BOTTOM AND EDGES --------------- The bottom of all lagoons shall be approximately level. The side slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller to decrease the permeability of the finished bottom and side slopes. QUALITY ASSURANCE ----------------- During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during construction as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required as deemed necessary by the inspector and/or designer. During construction of a clay liner, a qualified.construction inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during con- struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (Revised September 1993). In the absence of supervision of construction by a qualified inspector, the liner must be tested to verify a maximum hydraulic conductivity of 0.000001.25 cm/sec. When testing is required, the owner will be responsible for furnish- ing test results and certification that the construction meets the design requirements. Any tests and certification should be performed by a certified laboratory.

I ' OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN SHEET 1 OF 2 This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of 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 water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 130 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a heavy rain factor. 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 heavy rain factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to maintain the liquid level between these markers. Pumping can be started or stopped at any- time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such. as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application 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 out: 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be charged to 1/2 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging i.s_ complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 50.60 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 48.00 . This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 66761 cubic feet or 499369 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation, and recommended maximum application rate is shown_in the waste utilization plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop. B. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the joints. 9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris. 10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage. 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times. 12. In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address animal operations. These rules became effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible'in order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors When irrigating on land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer.
