It is especially Important to manage levels so.ha: you do not have yioblei115 during extended rainy and we'Periods, Maximum storap capacity sho,:ld be avaiiable in the lagoon for period5 when the rece:vine crop 15 dormant.Isuch as winteinime for hermudagrass) or when there are extended ra,nv spells such as the thunderstorm season it the summertime. This.means that of the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to a farm-: waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer/early Tali the lagoon should be pumped down to the low marker ;See Figure 2-1) to allow for winter 5t072ze. every effort should be made to maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as lor.g as the weather and waste utilization plan .viif allow it. %'Waiting until the lagoon has reached is maximum storage capaci ;' before sta..ine to, irrigate 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 fertilizer 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 or. the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by mowing, spraying, grazing, choppping, or a combination „f 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 alloyed 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 s ,.ould be made during the Initial iiliirg of the lagoon and at leasr monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Itens to be checked should include, as a ninim�jn, the following: Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipe.F--look for: 1. separation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumufatior, of salts or minera's 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 3 side slope stability-5IJ'n,7S or bulges 3. : wet or damp area: on the bast: slope -4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a res it of wave"action 5. rodent damage Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave a=ion caused by strong winos. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening tie 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. hnv of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the da.n,. Ii your lagoon has any of these features, you should call an appropriate exile„ iarnir?r with desten and construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix iith2re isa threat of a waste discharge. however, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the technical exp ert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipm?nt is a serious underaking with potentially serious consequences and should not -)e con,ducred 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, ora large amount of vibration; may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or replacement. NOTE. Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so ;nat you are not comp!eteiy "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping system, ^-ainterance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some sa`ety time shculd major repairs be required. Having a nearly ful! lagoon is not the time to think about switching, repairing, or bcrrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full, you, neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare parts or purr fps. Surface water diversion features are designed to carry a!1 surface drainage waters (such as rainfali runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot runoftl away irorn 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 rain. -all that hits the !agoon directly. `rou should inspect your diversion system for the following: 1. adequate -vegetation 2. dit'?rsion capacity �"� .3.ridge berm he:zht identified problems should be corrected promptly. I: is aavisabfe to i.spect your system during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technica; assistant._ 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 :hen record :he level again 4 to b hours after the rain (assures there is no pumping). This will give ,you an idea of how much your lagoon level w;ll rise with a certain rainfali 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 inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the lagoon from the surrounding land. La;oor, Operation Startup: 1. Immediately after construction establish a complete iod cover on bare soil surfaces to avoid erosion,. 2. Ml new lagoon design trea:m—,tent volume a: least )•aif furl 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). S. 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 voiu,;.e. TS seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the addition of wastewater. 0. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. ;,'the pH fails below 7.0, add agricultural firne at the rate of i pound per 7000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. OOLIMUm lagoon licuid pH is between 7.3 and B.O. 7. A dark color, lack of bubbhria. arc excessive odor signais inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for proionge= peficds, especially during the warm season.. Loading. The more frequently and regularly t^at wastewater is ached to a lagoon, the better the lagoon will function. Flush systems that stiasn waste into the lagoon several tines daily are opti-tum for treatment.

You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface waters or• leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take. 1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to problems are listed below: A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are- a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam, any permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified technical specialist. b. Pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate. c. Stop all additional flow to the lagoon -hold waste in the house if possible. d. Call a pumping contractor. e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon. B. Runoff from waste application field -action include: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff. e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include: a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. D. Leakage from flush system, houses, solids separators -actions include: a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Make sure no siphon effect has been created. d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -possible action: a. Dig a small sump or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon. b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and the lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. a. Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g. Are potable water- wells in danger (either on or off of the property)? h. How much reached surface waters? 3. Contact appropriate agencies. a. During normal business hours, call your DWO (Division of Water (2uality) regional office, at 910-486-1541, after hours, emergency numberel-800-858-0368.

When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option. Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian. Primary Secondary Routine Mortality Q 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 13B .0200. © Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7. Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102. a ❑ A composting system approved and permitted by the NC Department of Agriculture & Con- sumer Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off -farm, additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ. ❑ a 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). a 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). 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.
