The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity available
at the end of each month of the plan. 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 Iagoon 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.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. 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. AnimaI 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.
------------ -- -- ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
829035 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed; 3/1/2007 Specification Page 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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
829035 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/1/2007 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.

Crop Notes
Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1
1n the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fabrenheit. Plant
1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and
information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for
your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be
applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 3/4 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when
corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage, Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected
yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be
reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and
expected yield, Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus
is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the
growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is
essential in profitable corn silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest.

WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
I. Waste Management Problems
Mr. Ross has 165 dairy cows confined on concrete. The
freestalls are under roof. Manure slurry is stored in a pit
behind the freestall and feedlot area. The present storage
pit is undersized and the embankment will not meet minimum
acceptable criteria for earth embankments. Runoff from 0.8
acre concrete feed area beside milking parlor and freestall
barn is diverted to a draw located approximately 50 ft away.
Milking parlor wash water dumps directly into a ditch.
Also, some unsafe conditions exist at push off ramp (no
safety rails or slope protection) and around existing pond
(no permanent fencing).
Ii. Waste Management Objective
A system will be planned to economically as possible
handle all the problems described above in a manner that
does not degrade air, soil or water resources. The system
planned will prevent discharge. of pollutants to surface and
ground water by recycling waste through soil and plants.
The following design and plans will be required:
A. Waste Storage Pond for Manure, Polluted Runoff and
Milking Parlor Wash Water
A pond will be designed to store manure, polluted
runoff from concrete lot and milking parlor wash water.
Approximately 0.7 acre of concrete lot is obsolete and will
be removed from the cows. Approximately 0.2 acre of
concrete lot will be collected in the pond. The waste
- storage pond- volume-- (s-torageperiod)...-is- -the.-main - factor
which determines the management which will be required to
prevent an illegal discharge. Polluted water should not be
applied to.land that is frozen, snow covered, or saturated.
A storage period of 6 months would be desirable to allow
flexibility in managing the application system to prevent a
discharge.
The Waste storage pond will be located over 100 ft.
from the nearest well. The waste storage pond is located no
closer than 350 ft. from any residence other than the owner
or his tenants.

B. Clean Water Exclusion
Clean water will be excluded from the feedlot and waste
storage pond to the fullest extent possible. Diversions,
piping, roofing, and guttering will be used where practical.
Most of existing concrete will be excluded from cow traffic.
C. Livestock Exclusion
Livestock shall be fenced out of waste storage pond.
Safety rails and fencing shall be installed at push off
ramp.
D. Waste Utilization
Sufficient land shall be available to properly spread
waste at locations, times, volumes, and rates that maintains
air, soil and water resources. Waste applications will be
based on soil and waste analysis. A waste utilization plan
will be prepared.
E. Operation and Maintenance Plan
The owner shall be responsible for operating and
maintaining the system. An operation plan will be prepared.
III. Waste Storage Pond for Manure, Polluted Runoff and
Milking Parlor Wash Water
The waste storage pond will be designed to store
Manure, polluted runoff and milking parlor wash water for a
5 month storage period.

5. Volume of Waste
Dairy cows are in the freestall and feedlot area 1000

_.....TOTAL 43.5 ..gal/.day-----
Total Volume = 435 gal/day * 1 cuf t* 180 days=10,468 cu ft
7.48 gal
Note: This is approximately 2.6 gal per cow per day. Five
to 10 gal per day per cow is recommended as norm for this
type of milking parlor. Estimated Volumes of wash water
were discussed with Mr. Ross and quantities appear ok.
Another sometimes large volume not considered is leaking
water tanks. Mr. Ross has made provisions to handle leaking
water tanks.

Normal Volume = 104' * 159 * 1.3 + 10,396 + 55,588 + 10,468
= 97,949 cu ft per 6 months
Each six months an average of 97,949 cu ft or 732,657 gal
will be stored. If a 3000 gal tanker is used, 244 loads
will be hauled each six months. This is 1,465,314 gallons
per year or 24.3 gals/caw/day.
Max. Elev. = 1 + .5 + 3935 cu ft/(98 X 153) = 1.8'
D. Pump out elevation and ESW elevation
The waste storage pond for manure should be pumped
before the manure level reaches the 25 yr - 24 hr storage
volume. This elevation is 1.8 ft below the top of dam
elevation. The emergency spillway elevation is planned 1
foot below the top of dam elevation.

IV. Clean Water Exclusion
A. Diversions
Clean water diversions will be constructed around waste
storage pond. The District Conservationist will design all
diversions. Diversions shall be designed to carry the 25
year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store some sediment.
B. Guttering
Clean water shall be excluded to the fullest extent
possible by guttering. Guttering will be designed by
Engineering Staff at area Office. Typically barns require
6" guttering with 31, X 411 downspouts which outlet into 6"
PVC or Steel Pipe.
C. Roofing
Roofing will be constructed over feed areas on existing
concrete to minimize polluted water. Approximately 0.7
acres of concrete lot will be removed from cattle. See
drawings for obsolete concrete. Clean water will be
guttered or roofed away from feed alley. See drawings for a
typical section. Heifer group will also have a feed area
roofed. A 12 foot stock trail will be provided across
existing concrete to the pasture for heifers.
D. Lounging Areas
Buffer areas shall be maintained between lounging areas
and concentrated water flow areas. Zig Zag fencing above
buffers shall be constructed to prevent cattle trails from
diverting water from the filter. An alternative is to
_--... _....cons-t-ruct --deep--divers-ions-across---- fence., lines- -at-f-requent
intervals to force cow trail flow across fence line.
Filters shall be 100 ft wide below lounging areas..

r
V. Waste Utilization Plan
A. Management Facts (liquid manure)
Manure will be stored in a waste.storage pond for
approximately 6 months and will be conventionally spread.
During the course of one year, this facility will store
up to 1,465,314 cubic feet of slurry waste. Daily scraping
of waste is required to move the waste into the storage
facility.
If all of one years waste were spread using a 3000 gal.
spreader, it would take approximately 488 loads. Assuming 1
load per hour, it would take a total of 488 hours each year
to spread the waste.
Ground, conditions must be evaluated prior to spreading.
Irreversible compaction problems and damage to underground
drainage systems may result from the excessive weight of a
loaded spreader. Caution should be exercised to insure that
waste does not run or wash off from the land.
B. Management Facts (polluted water)
Runoff from lounging areas will be diverted across 100'
grass filter areas. Concrete that is obsolete will be kept
clean or removed and area established in grass..
C. Nutrient computations
Manure application shall be based on actual soil test
and manure analysis. Example computations are shown below.

the streams and rivers if the 25 yr -24 hr storage capacity
is maintained in the waste storage pond and diversions for
clean water and polluted runoff are maintained around the
system.
The waste storage pond for manure shall be pumped
before it reaches a point 1.8 ft. below the top of the dam.
A post will be set with its top at this elevation.
Vegetation around the waste storage pond and structure
shall be mowed annually and eroded areas patched. Fencing
shall be checked and repaired as required.

Evaluation of Soils for Use for use in Dam Construction
By: Sam Bingham, Civil Engineer, NRCS
The cutoff trench shall be excavated through all
alluvial material and at least I foot into the residual (SM
material- parent material). The cutoff trench will follow
existing ditch down the valley. The trench shall be
deepened to the planned depth and widened to accommodate
compaction equipment. NRCS will check this depth prior to
backfill. The trench along the lower side of dam maybe
constructed on upstream side of the existing fill (ie
upstream side of the planned dam). All trenches shall be
dewatered prior to placing fill.
All alluvial material suitable for use in dam
construction must be placed in outside slopes of dam.
Clay material (MH and SC) shall be used for cutoff
trench and core construction. Mr. Ross indicates that extra
clay material is available if on site material is in short
supply.
Soils in the foundation appear to contain a lot of
fines even though they are nonplactic. A clay liner will
not.be required unless unexpected soils are found. In lieu
of a clay liner the bottom and side slopes shall be
scarified 611 deep and compacted. A Sheep foot roller works
best in the bottom. The slopes will need compacted with a
dozer by walking it up and down the slope.
COMPACTION REQUIREMENTS
Maximum thickness of layer before compaction is 811 or
less. Compaction is equivalent to 6 passes with a sheep

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF PONDS AND RESERVOIRS
C1ea3rinR: All trees and brush shall be removed from the impoundment area before any water is
impounded. Whenever practical, this clearing should be delayed until after the dam is built to
hold erosion and downstream sedimentation to a minimum. Stumps may be removed or trees may be
sawed off as low as practical and stumps left standing. .
The foundation of the impoundment structure (dam) shall be cleared of all trees,
stumps, roots, brush, sod, and debris. All stumps and all roots exceeding one (1) inch in
diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1) foot. Satisfactory disposition will
be made of all debris.
After clearing is completed the foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly and
roughly leveled, with suitable equipment, before placement of any embankment material.
Cutoff Trench; A cutoff trench shall be excavated as shown on the plans. The cutoff trench
shall be backfilled in thin layers, not to exceed S inches_ in depth: All standing water shall
be removed from the trench before backfilling is started.
Embankment Construction: The material placed in the embankment shall be free of sod, roots,
stones over 6 inches in diameter,and other objectionable materials. The fill material shall
be placed and spread over the entire fill in layers not to exceed 8 inches in thickness. Con-
struction of the fill shall be undertaken only at such 'times that the moisture content of the
fill material will permit a reasonable degree of compaction.
Fill Materials: Borrow areas will be designated on the plans and assigned priority (1, 2, 3,
etc.:). All fill material shall be taken from these designated areas. SCS technicians will
advise the contractor regarding the maximum depth of cut in each borrow area. The contractor
will not exceed this depth. In the event this depth is- exceeded in the impoundment area, it
shall be the responsibility of the contractor, without additional cost to the landowner,. to
cover the exposed area with a minimum of 2 feet ofimpervious material.
Riser & Conduit Pipe: When it is indicated on the plans that a riser and conduit pipe.are re-
quired, they must be installed as a complete unit. The inlet of the riser shall be protected.
by.an inverted bucket -type, or an equally effective type, of trash rack. The conduit shall be
placed on a firm foundation.. Selected backfili material shall be placed around the .riser and
conduit pipe in layers not exceeding 4 inches and each successive layer thoroughly compacted.
Anti -Seen Collars: Anti -seep collars will be of materials and dimensions, and.located as shown
in the plans where specified.
Vegetated Spillwav(s): Spillway(s) will be excavated in undisturbed earth to the dimensions,
grades, slopes, and location as shown in the plans and as staked upon the ground.
Pollution Control During Construction: Stripping of embankment and borrow areas shall be done
as'..Chey. ara .rieeded__in. a._normal. s�quetce,._.oF. co�tstruction..__.Use_.,Cemporary mulch protection on all
_... _ _ .on All.
. .... _
disturbed areas that are subject to erosion and will not have substantial additional work per-
formed for 30 days or more. Temporary stream crossing structures will be used where fording of
Streams will cause excessive sediment pollution. Protection against pollutants such as
chemicals, fuel, lubricants, sewage, etc., will be provided during construction.
Vegetation: All exposed embankment, spillway, and borrow area shall be seeded to an adapted
type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction.
Special Provisions:
(continued on back)

VEGETATION SPECMCATION
Rip and disk all disturbed area 5" deep. Incorporate two tons of lime
per acre. Apply 1000 pounds of 10-10-10 per acre and smooth seedbed.
Uniformly apply 60 lbs. of fescue seed per acre and 25 lbs. of Abruzzi
rye grain per acre. Seeding should be completed between March 15 and
June 1 or August 15 and October 15. Immediately mulch with 2 tons of
small grain straw or tame hay -per acre. Reseed any rilled or Bullied
areas that may develop.
Note: SCS will determine area to be seeded before vegetative work is
started.

streambanks will be to a minimum.
2. Fence TyRes
Zinc coating shall be a minimum of Class I or 0.30 ounces
per square foot of surface.
a. Woven Wire
styles,.._and designs of woven wire fencing are
designated by a three- or four=digit- -number;
example, 1047 or 939. The first or first two digits
indicate the number of line wires in the fencing and
the last two indicate the height in inches. For
example, 1047-12 has 10 line wires, is 47 inches
high, and the stay wires are 12 inches apart. The
weight of woven wire fencing is determined by the
gauge, or size, the number of stay wires, and the
filler or intermediate line wires. The lower the
gauge number the larger the wire, and the larger the
wire the stronger and more durable the fencing..

Rev. September 1994 382-7
2. Number of wires and spacing.
The number of wires and spacing shall be designed to accomplish
the desired result of the fence. The following are suggested
wire spacings and electrical charge for different kinds and
classes of animals. When multiple wire systems are used,
spacing of wires should be designed to insure facial shock when
animal attempts to place.head between wires.
In most instances in the southeast, an all positive charge
fence will normally suffice. If. experience shows that -the soil
on site will dry to the point that it will not cause shock of
the animal, then a combination of positive (+) and negative (-)
wires should be used.
One and two wire electric fences maybe used for within --farm
uses such as streamside fencing and subdividing pastures, but
may not be.used for property line or roadside fencing.

A. Braces and end assemblies are required at all
corners, gates and angles in the fence line. Single
post corner, angle or end brace assemblies or 'PH"
Brace assemblies or an equivalent strength brace will
be used See Attachment A for criteria on corners,
angles or brace assemblies.

Rev. September 1994
382-11
B. All underground wire(s) installations must be double
insulated, molded, aluminum or high tensile strength
steel 12 1/2 gauge or larger wire. The insulation
must be high density polyethylene with ultra -violet
stabilizer or high density polypropylene with ultra-
violet stabilizer.
C. Insulators for. steel and other conductive material
posts must be high density polyethylene with ultra-
violet stabilizer, high density polypropylene with
ultra -violet stabilizer or porcelain, that withstands
10,400 volts or more current leakage.
D. Insulators for end, corner, and angle braces must be
high density polyethylene with ultra -violet
stabilizer, high density polypropylene with ultra-
violet stabilizer or porcelain. Do not use insulated
tubing for attaching around post of.brace assemblies.
7. Gates
A. Electrified gates may be constructed"of a single
straight wire with a spring loaded insulated handle,
or an expandable, coiled, high tensile, 12 1/2 gauge
wire attached to an insulated handle. The number of
wires shall be determined by'the fence objective.
The gate shall be constructed so that it is non -
electrified when the gate is open. Overhead or
.underground transmission lines will.be used to carry
electricity past the gate to the remainder of the
fence.
8. Flood Gates
A. An electrified flood gate may be used in lieu of a
_...__ non -electrified gate if desired. The electrified
-
flood`. gate.. is._ constructed- hy- stretching; an - ..... . . .. . .......
electrified wire across the drainage above high water
flow level. Attach droppers of the 12 1/2 gauge high
tensile fence wire to the electrified wire at a
spacing of 6 inches for sheep and 12 inches for
cattle. Hanging wires should be approximately 6
inches above average normal water level. Connect
gate to electric fence with double insulated cable
through a cut-off switch and floodgate controller.
If flooding is expected to last. some time, switch the
flood gate off. (See Flood Gate drawing, Attachment
C.)
II. Temporary Electric Fence
1. Temporary electric fence is constructed with the intent of
being left in place for only a short time period. It is not
constructed as an equivalent of a permanent fence. Therefore,
the criteria for an electric fence requires materials, design
and construction that will accomplish the intended purpose and

CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION
CONCRETE
1. Scode
This specification covers the quality of concrete, steel reinforcement, the
forming, placing, curing and other requirements for concrete construction of
simple stabs, low walls (not to exceed 4 feet), curbing, aprons, ballast etc.
2. Definitions
In this specification, the "engineer" is the designated Natural Resources
Conservation Service representative. The "contractor" is the individual or
company who performs the construction.
3. Composition
Concrete shall be composed of Portland cement, fine and coarse aggregates,
water and, when specified, air -entrainment, set retardant or other admixtures.
These materials shall conform to the following requirements:
Portland Cement - Portland cement shall meet the requirements of ASTM
Specification C-150 for Type I cement unless otherwise specified. Cement shall
be properly stored and protected from weather, dampness or other destructive
agent. Any cement which is damaged will be rejected and not permitted to be
used in the work.
Acareaate - Fine aggregate shall meet the requirements of N.C. Department of
Transportation (DOT) standard size number 2S. Coarse aggregate shall be N.C.
DOT size number 57 or 67.
Water - Water shall be clean and free from oil, salt, acid, alkali, organic matter or
other harmful substances.
__.. Design- Mix-- - ._ ._ ._ .__... ._.._ ,_.. .
The contractor shall designate the design mix and submit it to the engineer for
approval prior to placement of any concrete. Unless authorized by the engineer,
the concrete mix will meet the following guidelines for a cubic yard of concrete:
Cement 564 lbs. minimum - (6 bags)
Coarse aggregate 1850 lbs. maximum
Fine aggregate 1450 lbs. maximum
Water 6 gal./bag of cement maximum-(36
gallons)
The contractor will submit evidence as required by the engineer, showing that the
concrete ingredients comply with the requirements of this specification.
After the design mix has been approved, no change in the source, character, or
grading of the materials shall be made without due notice to the engineer. No new
aggregate, nor any aggregate found to differ in quality or properties from the
materials on which the design mix has been based shall be used until the engineer
NRCS-Nc CONCRETE
Area 1 page 1 July 1994

has determined its conformity with specifications and has approved a new design
mix based on the new or altered material.
5. Consistent
The amount of water used in the concrete- shall be the minimum necessary to
obtain the required workability. In no case shall the water content exceed the
amount designated in the design mix.
The consistency of the concrete shall be such that it can be worked readily into
the corners and angles of the forms and around reinforcement with the method of
placing employed on the work, but without permitting the materials to segregate
or excess free water to collect on the surface. The free water contained in the
aggregate must be considered as a part of the mixing water in computing the
water content.
The slump shall be between 2 and 4 inches when tested by "The Test for Slump
of Portland Cement Concrete," ASTM Designation C-143.
6. Mixers and Mixing
Concrete may be furnished by batch mixing at the site of work or by ready -mix
methods. The mixing equipment shall be capable of combining the aggregate,
cement and water into a uniform mixture and of discharging this mixture without
segregation.
When the concrete is delivered in ready -mix trucks, the .delivery ticket must show
the time of batching and the amount of each of the ingredients in the load.
7. Forms
Material - Forms shall be of wood, steel, or other approved material.
Construction - Forms shall be true to line and grade, mortar -tight and sufficiently
rigid to prevent objectionable deformation under load. The form surfaces shall be
smooth, free from irregularities, dents, sags, or holes when used for permanently
exposed faces. All exposed joints, edges, and external corners shall be chamfered
unless otherwise directed or indicated an the drawings. Bolts and rods used for
internal ties -shall be so -arranged --that, -when the dorms--are--removed; metal -will -be.
not less than one ( Z) inch from any concrete surface.
NRCS VC
CONCRETE
Area 1 Page 2 Juiy i 994

-.Coating• Forms for exposed surfaces shall be coated with a non -staining form oil
which shall be applied before the concrete is placed. After oiling, surplus oil an
the form surfaces and any oil on the reinforcing steel or other surfaces requiring
bond with the concrete shall be removed. Forms for unexposed surfaces may be
thoroughly wetted in lieu of oiling immediately before the placing of concrete,
except that, in freezing weather, oil shall be used.
Removal - All form removal shall be accomplished in such a manner as to prevent
injury to the concrete. Forms will not be removed before the expiration of the
minimum time indicated below except where otherwise directed or specifically
authorized.
Beams and deck -type slabs 14 days
Walls and slabs in contact with the ground 3 days
S. Embedded Items
Before concrete is placed, all embedded items will be firmly and securely fastened
in place as indicated on the drawings. Embedded items shall be free of oil and
other foreign matter.
9. Steel Reinforcement
All reinforcement shall be free from flaky rust, oil, grease, paint or other substance
which would impair the bond between concrete and steel.
Steel bars for concrete reinforcement shall be deformed billet -steal bars,
conforming to AS T M Specification A-615, Grade 40.
Welded steel wire fabric sliall conform to the requirements of AS T M Specification
A-185.
Reinforcement shall be accurately placed and secured in position in a manner that
will prevent its displacement during placement of the concrete. Splices of
reinforcing bars shall provide an overlap equal to at least 30 times the diameter of
the smaller bar in the splice. Welded wire fabric shall be lapped as directed by the
engineer.
onvevina
Concrete shall be conveyed from mixer to forms as rapidly as practicable by
methods which will prevent segregation or loss of ingredients. There shall be no
vertical drop greater than five (a) feet except where suitable equipment is provided
to prevent segregation and where specifically authorized.
No concrete shall be placed until the engineer has given his approval of the
subgrade, forms and reinforcing steel in place. No concrete shall be placed until
the engineer or his representative is present. The contractor shall notify the
engineer of his intention to.. pour at least 24 hours in advance.
Before any concrete is placed, the forms and subgrade shall be free of chips, dirt,
sawdust, or other extraneous materials.
11. Placina
General - Concrete shall be worked into the corners and angles of the forms and
around all reinforcements and embedded items without permitting the materials to
NRCs-NC CONC39 s
Area 1 Page 3 Juiv ; 994

segregate. Concrete shall be placed within one and one-half (1.112) hours after
the introduction of the cement to the water and aggregates.
Concrete, when deposited in the forms during hot weather, will have a
temperature not greater than 90OF at the time of placement. ice may be used as a
portion of the mixing water to control temperatures provided all ice is melted in the
mixing process. When the atmospheric temperature reaches or exceeds 900F, the
concrete shall be placed within 45 minutes after botching.
Concrete, when deposited in the forms during cold weather, shall have a
temperature of not less than 40OF nor more than 800F. The aggregate and mixing
water may be heated to control the concrete temperature; however, the
temperature of neither aggregates nor mixing water shall be more than 100oF just
prior to mixing. The materials shall be free from ice, snow and frozen lumps
before entering the mixer.
Concrete shall be deposited as close as possible to its final position in the forms.
The depositing of concrete shall be regulated so the concrete may be consolidated
with a minimum lateral movement. Concrete shall be consolidated with the aid of
mechanical vibrating equipment supplemented by hand -spading and rodding.
Vibrating equipment shall be of the internal type and shall at all times be adequate
to properly consolidate all concrete. All concrete -placing equipment and methods
shall be subject to approval.
Lifts in Concrete - All concrete shall be deposited in horizontal layers
approximately twenty (20) inches in thickness unless otherwise authorized or
directed. The placement shall be carried on at such a rate that the formation of
cold joints will be prevented. If a delay occurs in excess of a forty (40) minute
interval between any two (2) consecutive batches or loads, or in case of any delay
between placing of batches that allows previously placed concrete to take initial
set, the contractor shall discontinue the placing of concrete and make a
construction joint satisfactory to the engineer before proceeding with the placing
operations.
Concrete an Mock Foundation - Where concrete is to be placed on rock surfaces
the rock is to be clean, free from oil, standing or running water, mud,
objectionable coatings, debris, loose semi-detached or unsound rock or fragments.
All rock surfaces shall be wet immediately prior to placing concrete.
Concrete on Earth Foundation - Unless otherwise authorized by the engineer all
concrete shall be placed upon clean, damp surfaces which are free from frost, ice,
standing or running water. Concrete shall not be placed upon soft mud, dried
porous earth, or upon fill that has not been subject to approved rolling and
tamping. Where concrete is to be placed on dry surfaces, action must be taken to
prepare a damp, moist surface prior to placing,
12. Construction Joints
The placing of concrete will be accomplished so that construction joints occur at
locations shown on the plans or as approved. As a lift is completed, the top
surface shall be immediately and carefully protected from any condition that will
adversely affect the hardening of the concrete. Joints shall be clean and keot
damn until the new concrete is placed.
13. Expansion or Contraction Joints
NRCs-ANC CONCRETE
Area 1 Page 4 July '.sea

"General - Joints shall be provided at the locations indicated on the -drawings and
according to the details shown or as otherwise approved. The methods and
materials used shall be subject to approval by the engineer. In no case shall any
fixed metal, embedded in concrete, be continuous through an expansion or
contraction joint, except as specifically detailed in the drawings.
14. Finishinct
Defective concrete, honeycombed areas, voids left by the removal of the forms -
and ties, and ridges on all concrete surfaces shall be repaired immediately after the
removal of forms unless otherwise 'authorized or directed. Voids left by removal of
tie rods shall be reamed and completely filled with mortar. Defective concrete
shall be repaired by cutting out the unsatisfactory material and placing new
concrete which shall be secured with keys, dovetails, or anchors. Excessive
rubbing of formed surfaces will not be permitted. All unformed surfaces of
concrete, exposed in the completed work, shall have a wood float finish without
additional mortar.
15. Curina
Concrete shall be protected from excessive drying for a curing period of at least 7
days after it is placed. Exposed surfaces shall be kept continuously moist for the
entire period or until curing compound is applied as specified below. Moisture
shall be maintained by sprinkling, flooding or fog spraying, or by covering with
continuously moistened canvas, cloth mats, straw, sand or other approved
material. Wood forms (except plywood) left in place during the curing period shal.
be kept wet. Formed surfaces shall be thoroughly wetted immediately after forms
are removed and shall be kept wet until patching and repaired are completed.
Water or covering shall be applied in such a way that the concrete surface is not
eroded or otherwise damaged.
Except for construction joint surfaces, concrete may be coated with an approved
curing compound in lieu of the continued application of moisture.
The compound shall be sprayed on the moist concrete surfaces as soon as free
water has disappeared, but shall not be applied to any surface until patching,
repairs and finishing of that surface are completed.
The curing compound shall be thoroughly mixed immediately before applying, and
shall be applied at a uniform rate of not less than one gallon per 150 square feet
of surface. It shall form a uniform, continuous, adherent fim hat shall not check,
crack or peel, and shall be free from pin holes or other imperfections.
Curing compound shall not be- applied to surfaces requiring bond with
subsequently placed concrete, such as construction joints, shear plates,
reinforcing steel and other embedded items.
Surfaces subjected to heavy rainfall or running water within 3 hours after the
compound has been applied; or surfaces damaged by subsequent construction
operations during the curing period shall be resprayed in the same manner as for
the original applications.
During cold weather, the air and forms in contact with the concrete shall be
maintained at temperatures above forty (40) degrees for at least five (5) days and
-at a temperature above freezing for the remainder of the specified curing period.
Concrete, permitted to be cured with curing compounds, shall be provided the
same protection against freezing and low temperatures as provided herein. No fire
