ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: MURPHY SMITH
Location: -19829 NC 131 S.
BLADENBORO-NC 28320
Telephone: 910-►648-4826
Type operation: Existing Feeder to Finish swine
Number of Animals: 2448.00 hogs
(Design Capacity)
STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon
APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan .uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing- your waste utilization
plan in -order to maximize the fertilizer.value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown
and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more
nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be- applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on "saturated soils, when it is raining, or
when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may
result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2448 hogs x 1:9 tons waste/hogs/year = 4651.2 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2448 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 5630.4 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be .the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be-nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 905.76 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4528.8
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 15.096 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 36.2304 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 251% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed -to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. ' The..maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance should .the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the.tdbles may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.

direct discharge during -operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which 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 waste, he/she shall
provide a copy 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
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for -realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application 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 that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than -10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. -(See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field. .
6. When animal waste is to-be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste ma-y 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 offsits 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 or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the 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.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of
surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the
amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before
each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the cropto be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan 'in order to maximize the
fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner.
Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have
different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water
holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per
acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils,when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either
of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM
regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems.
To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the
waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to
planting. Injecting the waste or dishing will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this
type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste
management facility. Attached you will find Information on proper sampling techniques, preparation,
and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, If carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
21-1,0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1 Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or dined discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface wateris 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 waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an
agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing himther the use of
the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owrrerof the facility b secure an
update of the Waste Utilization Plan when here Is a change in the operation, Increase in the
numberof animals,method of utilization,oravailable land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the-nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 bons per acre per year. Waste may
be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more-bons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard
393-Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there isdangerof dfflfrom the irrigation field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on
conventionally tilled cropland. When 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"Weatherand Climate in North Carolina"for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates riot 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 pond ing should occur in orderto control odor orflies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied th saiu rated soils,during rainfall events, or when the surface

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
animalwaste should also be considered.
9 0 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a hbh
potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these stills should be held to a minimum
and a suitable winter cover crap,planted to fake up released nutrients. Waste shall not be
applied more than 30 days priorto planting of the crop orforages breaking dormancy.

perennial stream or river(other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine
waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),shall not be applied closer than 25 feet
to perennial waters. (See Standard 393-FilterStrfps�
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by
the landowner.
13 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface voters, dratrageways, or wetlands by
94 discharge or by over-spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they 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 v>rater courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that
15 causes no runoff ordriftfrom the site.

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 conskiered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible Berms and structures should be Inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage ordisctharge.
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 inept on
site.
Animal waste can be used In a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
20 human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption it should only be applied pro-plant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
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
21 managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marler will be required to mark
the maximum storage volumeforwaste storage ponds.
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-detemnining element.
Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property.to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. 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 some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow-possible solutions are:
a) Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b) Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
c) Stop all flow to the lagoon immediately.
d) Call a pumping contractor.
e) Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
a. Runoff from waste application field-actions include:
a) Immediately stop waste application. .
b) Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c) Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d) Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s)that cause 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 pump.
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
d) Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D. Leakage from flush systems,houses,solid separators-action include:
a) Stop recycle pump.
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Make sure siphon occurs.
d) Stop all flow in the house,flush systems,or solid separators.
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 from the embankment to catch all seepage,put in a submersible
pump,and pump back to lagoon.
b) If holes are caused by burrowing animals,trap or remove animals and fill holes and
compact with a day type soil.
c) Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and the lagoon bottom as soon
as possible.
8
2 Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a_ Did the waste reach surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage notes,such as employee injury,fish kills,or properly 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 spi{I to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger(either on or off the property)?
h. How much reached surl"ace waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During_ normal business hours call your DWQ regional afficw; Phone C After howl,
emergency number. (910)433-3300. Your phone call should include: your name, facility
number, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2 above, the exact
location of the facility, the location or direction of the movement of the spill, weather and
wind conditions. The corrective measures that have been under taken, and the
seriousness of the situation.
b. If the spill leaves property or enters surface waters,call local EMS phone number.
m Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department
d. Contact CE's phone number,local SWCD office phone number and the local MRCS
office for advice/technical assistance phone number.
4. If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your problem to
them and ask the person to contact the proper agencies for you. -
5. Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair or problem to minimize offsite damage.
a. Contractors Name:
b. Contractors Address:
c. Contractors Phone:
6. Contact the technical specialist who certified the lagoon(MRCS, Consulting Engineer, etc.)
a. Name:
b. Phone:
7. Implement procedures as advised by DWQ and technical assistance agencies to rectify the

�af ' Mortality i.,anagement l jethods
Indicate which method(s)will be implemented.
When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option.
Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State ifeterinarian.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
Q a 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 flouring stream or public body of water
(G.S.106-403). The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high water table.Attach burial location map and plan.
Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEG under GS 16A NCAC
13B.0200.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S.106-168.7.
Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C.0102.
o o A composting system approved and permitted by the NC Department of Agriculture&Con-
sumer Services Veterinary Pivision(attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off-farm,
additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEG.
a In the case_of dead po4ltry:9Ny,placing in a disposal pit of a size and design approved by the
NC Department of Agriculture&Consumer Services(G.S. 106-549.70).
Any method.which,in the professional opinionfof 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
�J 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
c`J 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
a� C Division regulations and guidance.
Q' '`= s • Mass burial sites are subject to additional permit conditions(refer to facility's animal
waste management system permit).
>5= • 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.

OPERATOR:
This is animal waste sytgm design and specifications. Please review it
carefully. Retain this plan for your use and records. It is strongly
recommended that you, your contractor and Soil Conservation Service
personnel are in agreement as to how the waste lagoon is to be
constructed. '. SCS personnel will meet with all concerned parties and
walk- over the site to explain all flags and-- markings. If .further
layout is required by the contractor than is provided, feel free to
contact us. It is important that everyone understand what is expected _
so that final construction/seeding meets plans and specifications for
certification. '
As you requested, this design contains no added volume- for. sludge
(solids) that will accumulate over time . Sludge will be removed as
needed-f however to maintain the efficient operation of the system.
The lagoon embankment has a HAZARD CLASS "A" design. Sudden failure -of
the embankment will not .endanger life or damage public transportation
facilities. If failure should occur, lagoon would drain into
I-Alle V_zF14_L. - , which is /eo ' estimated feet
from lagoon, which in turn would eventually drain into
t
The actual amount of material required for pads and dam may vary from
the estimates. The desi n will attempt to balance cuts and fills as
close as possible.. If ahitional material is required after
construction is complete' on the lagoon, th0 contractor and owner -will
negotiate on the price and location of bor+ areas. Any movement of
topsoil is in excess of amounts specified below.

OPE4ATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
This lagoon is designed for waste -treatment with minimum
odor control . The- time -required for the planned level t.o be
reached may vary due to soil conditions, flushing
operations, and the amount of. fresh water added to the
system. This lagoon does not have design storage for fresh
water. Once the effluent depth in lagoon is :adequate for
recycling flush, fresh water should not be used. Lagoon is
designed to store a 25 year storm rainfall event plus normal
rainfall in excess 'of evaporation.
F
Land application of- waste water is recognized as an
acceptable method of -disposal . An irrigation system (so I id
set', traveler, center pivot) is the most efficent method of
application. Care needs to betaken when applying waste to
prevent damage to crops or runoff from the field. Rate of-
application should .�not exceed 0.5 inches; per hour. Waste
should be applied according to soil test. and waste analysis
on actively growing (grass) or immediately prior to planting
(corn) .
The following items are to be carried out:
1 . Begin pump-out :of the lagoon when Fluid level reaches
the bottom of -the outlet pipes. Lagoon is designed
For 6 month pumping cycle. EI_EVATI0N�$ yp,3
2. Stop pump-out before fluid depth is less than 6 feet
deep (this prevents the loss of bac ter i .a) . ELEVATION �6_7.�
3. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon
be precharged t6 1/2 its capacity -to prevent excessive
odors' during startup. Precharging reduces the concen-
tration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby
reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent
at all times.
4. Keep vegetation" on the embankment and areas adjacent to
the lagoon mowed.
5. Repair any eroded areas and esta-hiish in vegetation.
6. Recommend that a suitable fence be constructed around
the lagoon for 4afety purposes .
7. The Clean Water.�Ao•t of' 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants intorwaters of the United States. The
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources,
Division of Environmental Management, has the
responsibility for enforcing this law.
8. All surface runoff is to be diverted i-rom the lagoon to
stable outlets. '
