The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown,their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products,commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. Infiltration rate varies
with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that will not result in
runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to each field selected to
receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum application amount that each field may receive in any one application
event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. 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.

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 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.

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. 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).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
885052 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 5/7/2020 Specification Page 1
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.
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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
885052 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 5/7/2020 Specification Page 2
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.
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.
885052 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 5/7/2020 Specification Page 3
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
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 2a
Small Grain: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, highly leachable
In the Coastal Plain, oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30; and rye from
October 15-November 20. For barley, plant 22 seed/drill row foot and increase the seeding rate by 5%for
each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable
seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the
initial seeding rate by at least 10%when planting no-till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and
rye at 1-1 1/2 bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 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 no more
than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this
time. The recommended rate of potash should be split with 1/2 applied at planting and the other 1/2
applied when the N is topdressed in the Spring. The remaining N should be applied during the months of
February-March. The total N needed is dependent on the soil type. Apply sulfur at the rate of 5 lbs/acre at
planting and another 20 lbs/acre with the topdress N. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing
season to monitor the nutrient status of the oats, barley and rye. Timely management of diseases, insects
and weeds are essential for profitable oat, barley and rye production.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 2a
Bermudagrass: CP, Mineral Soil, Well Drained to Excessively 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. Sulfur will be needed on
deep sands with high leaching. 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. For better soils the N rate can be increased to 300
lb/ac. Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and
Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional
agronomist or extension agent for assistance.

The area that Mr. Owens proposes to add into his waste plan
(about 200' to finish out the half circles on his existing certified
irrigation plan) is mapped as Lakeland (LaB). This area is
highlighted in yellow on the attached map. This is the same soil
type as the adjacent spray area, and is very suited for hybrid
bermudagrass and suitable for lagoon effluent spray area.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE LAND APPLICATION OF WASTEWATER
IRRIGATION SYSTEMS FOR TARHEEL FARMS, CUMBERLAND COUNTY
According to data furnished by the owner, Roger Owens, and John M. Ray, Jr. and David G.
Faircloth, NRCS-USDA, Cumberland County,NC, this is a 1540-head sow to nursery facility. A
700-head sow to nursery facility was initially constructed and later an 840-head sow to nursery
facility was constructed. The two facilities produce annually 8316 pounds of PAN. In addition 1355
pounds of PAN are produced annually from sludge. The sludge does not have to be spread annually,
but will need to be spread when there is a buildup in the lagoon. It may require five to ten years
before sludge needs to be applied.
Soil type on the farm is predominantly Lakeland with a small field of Wickham and Autryville. The
Lakeland is excessively well drained with a permeability of 6.0-20 inches per hour down to 82 inches
and has a design infiltration rate of 0.75 inch per hour. The Wickham is well drained with a
permeability of 2.0-6.0 inches per hour in the top 7 inches and 0.6-2.0 inches per hour from 7 to 46
inches. The design infiltration rate is 0.45 inch per hour. The Autryville is well drained with a
permeability of 6.0 inches per hour in the top 25 inches,2.0-6.0 inches per hour from 25 to 39 inches
and >6 inches per hour from 39 to 59 inches. The design infiltration rate is 0.55 inches per hour.
The data on soils was obtained form the Soil Survey of Cumberland and Hoke Counties,NC which
was issued October 1984.
The two Waste Utilization Plans were developed by John M.Ray,Jr.and David G. Faircloth,NRCS-
USDA, Cumberland County,NC. The Plan for the 700 sow unit which was developed prior to the
use of realistic yield expectations (RYE)calls for hybrid coastal bermuda hay as the receiver crop.
The total annual PAN generated from wastewater and sludge is 4396 pounds (3780 pounds from
wastewater and 616 pounds from sludge). At an annual loading rate of 400 pounds of PAN per acre
a total of 10.99 acres of coastal bermuda is required. The Waste Utilization Plan showed that there
is 9.9 acres available. However by redesigning the land application wastewater irrigation system,
it is possible to obtain more acreage plus agreements with adjoining property owners.
The Plan for the 840 sow unit calls for hybrid coastal bermuda hay over seeded with small grain hay
as the receiver crop with an annual PAN loading rate of 335 pounds per acre. The total annul PAN
generated is 5095 pounds(4356 pounds from wastewater and 739 pounds from sludge). At a loading
rate of 335 pounds per acre, a total 15.21 acres of land is required.
The total land required according to the two plans is 26.20 acres. If the loading rate is 335 pounds
of PAN per acre for both plans the total amount of land required is 28.33 acres. The total area
available for land application is 29.59 acres. To obtain this acreage of land requires agreements with
three adjacent property owners. The agreement with Mrs. Dorothy B. Spence, Field 6, Tract 2076,
which needs to be updated, will allow Mr. Owens to land apply wastewater on a 4.51 acre field
seeded to hybrid coastal bermuda,with a small amount of overlap into adjoining areas on two sides
of the field (15-20 feet along two edges of the field). However the agreement should allow
easements of approximately 75 feet around the edge of the field. The agreement with Mr. Walter
Underwood,Tract 2078,will allow Mr.Owens to land apply to the property line without maintaining
a 50-foot property buffer. (I have not seen a copy of that agreement, but Mr. Owens has indicated
that he will provide a copy.) The agreement with Mr. Charles H. Cogdell,IV,Tract 326,allows Mr.
Owens to land apply wastewater 20 feet beyond or into Mr. Cogdell's property and therefore not
maintain a 50-foot property buffer. It is imperative that these three agreements be current and
be maintained to ensure the continuity of the Waste Utilization Plans and the Land
Application Wastewater Irrigation Plan.
Two areas will be seeded in hybrid coastal bermuda in the Spring 1997. The fields are labeled Fields
1 and 2a on the FSC Map,Tract 2089. Field 1 needs some land shaping and a ditch cut prior to
seeding. There is a 50-foot buffer around the edge of this field and the eastern edge of it is not
usable because it was used as a borrow area for clay for the lagoons. The woods to the north
of the field contains wetland plants. The usable area for land application is approximately 1.69
acres. The remainder of the land application area,which is the area east,west and south of the swine
buildings has been in hybrid coastal bermuda for several years.
The irrigation designer was not involved in the lagoon design. There are two lagoons on the property
and there appears to be more than six months of storage. The lagoon system was updated several
years ago and both lagoons are constructed to NRCS standards. One lagoon was designed to handle
the 700-sow unit and the second lagoon was added for the 840-sow unit. The two lagoons are tied
together. The storage and treatment time should be adequate to allow for pumping about 67 percent
of the wastewater on the hybrid coastal bermuda from April through October and the other 33
percent on the small grain hay in October-November and March. There will be very limited
pumping in the December through February time period. While the Waste Utilization Plan for the
700-sow unit does not call for over seeding the coastal bermuda with small grain,it is recommended
that all the coastal bermuda be over seeded.
Land Application Wastewater System
During late 1993 or early 1994, a permanent gun sprinkler irrigation system supposedly covering
13.68 acres of land was installed on the Owens Farm(Field 2 on Tract 2089). This system consisted
of 18 hydrants with spacings from 150 feet by 165 feet to 200 feet by 195 feet. The system was
designed with 8 full circle (FC) sprinklers, 8 half-circle (HQ sprinklers and 2 three-quarter (TQ)
circle sprinklers. There were two inactive wells on the property and no consideration was given to
maintaining the 100-foot buffer around the wells. The owner has decided to properly close these
wells,using a local well driller and approved closure procedures and this was scheduled to be
competed the week of February 17-21,1997. There is also a problem with an above ground power
line and the local power supplier is scheduled to place this line underground during the week of
February 17-21, 1997. The discharge from several of the sprinklers was impacting the above-ground
power lines.
Since this system was installed to meet the requirements of cost-share under the North Carolina
Division of Soil and Water there were questions about the design, installation, operation and
maintenance of the system. The initial design called for a Nelson SR 100 gun sprinkler with a 0.55
-inch taper bore nozzle. The sprinkler was designed to operate at 70 psi at the nozzle. In actual
operation the sprinkler was found to have a 0.96-inch ring nozzle and was operating at pressure less
2
AVIN than 60 psi. There was no drawing of the layout, and no calculations for pump TDH, thrust block
size, irrigation scheduling, record keeping or other documents on the design, installation and
operation of the system.
Since the owner is correcting the problem of the two wells that were within 100 feet of a land
application area and the power line is being placed underground, two of the problems are solved.
However the only way to solve the problem of excessive spacing for hydrants is to relocate a number
of the hydrants. In the new design, a sprinkler spacing of 140 feet by 140 feet is selected. The
Nelson SR 100 gun sprinkler with 0.55-inch nozzle, when operated at 70 psi has a diameter of 238
feet. Taking 60 percent of diameter as sprinkler spacing gives a spacing of 140 feet to the nearest
20 feet (238 feet x 0.60 = 142.8 feet). On the old part of the system hydrants will be relocated to
provide the 140-foot spacing except in one case where a spacing of 150 feet is used to keep from
relocating a hydrant. In the new part of the land application system, to obtain as much land as
possible for land application,sprinkler spacing down the lateral line on two laterals is 135 feet,rather
than 140 feet.
The field owned by Mrs. Dorothy B. Spence, Field 6,Tract 2076, will not have permanent irrigation
pipe installed. Instead portable aluminum pipe will be used for the seven hydrant locations needed
in the field. A valve opening elbow will be used to connect the aluminum pipe to a permanent
hydrant located along the property line. Approximately 420-440 feet of aluminum pipe will be
needed to handle the 3-valve longest lateral. The pipe can be moved to handle the shorter laterals.
There needs to be a permanent post installed at the end of each of the three laterals so that the
operator knows where the laterals should be laid.
In the redesign of the originally installed system, a total of 26 permanent hydrants are needed, plus
the aluminum pipe and hydrants for the seven locations in the Spence field. This requires 8
additional hydrants. Also 14 of the 18 hydrants will need to be relocated. The pipe that is in the
ground can be used, but it may be as inexpensive to install some new pipe. In some cases, it will
require digging down to the pipe and installing a hydrant on the pipe. According to the original
design the pipe is supposed to be 4-inch Schedule 40,IPS, PVC plastic pipe. The design also called
for nine thrust blocks so I assume that gasketed pipe was used. It appears the hydrants are 4-inch
by 4-inch by 2-inch tees, with a 2-inch riser and 2-inch valve. There are a couple of air
relief/vacuum relief valves installed, but that probably is not enough. There should be an air
relief/vacuum relief valve at the end of each line. It is difficult to know where the installer dead-
ended pipe without digging it all up.
The redesign of the old system provides approximately 10.90 acres of land application which is
approximately what is needed for the 700-sow unit. This includes the Spence field, Field 6, Tract
2076. Four hydrants do irrigate a portion of the new field, Field 2a, and had the new field not been
added they would still be needed so they can be a portion of the old system.
It is a little difficult to know exactly how much pipe will be needed for the modification of the old
system. I would suggest leaving that decision to the installer. Certainly some of the pipe can be
used. The pipe serving the five hydrants between the lagoon and the buildings can be used. A short
line will need to be installed where the one hydrant is being relocated. The 4-inch line along the
north edge of Mrs. Spence's field can be used. The 4-inch line next to Mr. Underwood's property
3
can be used. There will need to be some relocation of hydrants and some pipe added on both ends
to install a couple of hydrants.
I would recommend abandoning the second 4-inch line in that field. It could be dug up and reused
in another location and possibly the hydrants could be reused, but all of those hydrants are in the
wrong location.
I would suggest a 6--inch supply line from the pump station over to the area where the relocated
lateral line needs to be installed and then run the 6-inch line across to the new large field, Field 2a,
and across that field. To allow sufficient time to operate the land application system and still allow
the coastal bermuda hay to be cut and baled, the operator needs to run at least three gun sprinklers
at one time. This will require a flow rate of 225 gallons per minute (gpm)which will exceed the 5
feet per second(fps)velocity recommended for 4-inch PVC pipe. Also to provide adequate sprinkler
operating pressure,a larger pipe size is needed. The pump will only develop approximately 82 psi.
A pressure of 70 psi is needed at the sprinkler. Using 4--inch pipe the friction loss to the north side
of the large field is approximately 21 psi. In 6-inch plastic pipe the friction loss will be
approximately 3 psi. This will provide adequate sprinkler pressure.
A second pump and electric motor needs to be installed. This will be a Berkeley Model 1 1/2 TPM,
with 6 9/16-inch impeller, with 10 HP single phase motor. Both of these units will be operated in
parallel. Both pumps will discharge into a common discharge line. There should be check valves
on the discharge side of the pumps so that one pump does not try to over power the second pump.
This second pump and motor are identical to the presently installed pump and motor. Using two
pumps and motors will allow the operation of three gun sprinklers at one time.
I realize that Mr. Owens has indicated that he does not believe that his operation is generating as
much wastewater as the values in NRCS Standard 633. According to that standard, on an annual
basis,the operation should generate approximately 4,932,620 gallons of wastewater(3203 gal./sow
x 1540 sows). This is 166,699 gallons per acre (4,932,620 gals. _29.59 acre) or 6.139 acre-inches
per acre. The precipitation rate of the full circle gun is 0.368-inch per hour based on a spacing of
140 feet by 140 feet. When the sprinkler is operating by itself with no other sprinkler operating next
to it the average precipitation rate is 0.20 inch per hour. To apply this amount of wastewater using
one gun(75 gpm)will require 1096 hours. It is not feasible to operate a land application this many
hours during one year. Pumping 225 gpm, the operation time is cut to approximately 365 hours
which is very feasible. To be able to do this, however will require the second pump and electric
motor and the 6-inch supply line which will also serve as a lateral across part of Field 2.
In the large field,Field 2a,the laterals will be 3-inch. Only one sprinkler should be operated on the
lateral at one time. It is recommended that gate valves be installed on each of the laterals in Field
2a. By doing this only those laterals where sprinklers are operating will be charged with wastewater.
The line going to Field 1 can be 4-inch with the idea that only two sprinklers will be operated in that
field at one time. The laterals will be 3-inch.
All the pipe should be Class 160, IPS, PVC gasketed plastic pipe. The risers will need to be
constructed of Schedule 80 IPS, PVC plastic. This will include a tee (G x G x S or S x S x S), a
4
i l
riser, and a valve. The valve can be one of the cast aluminum or steel valves or a gate valve
(flanged) with an adaptor on top to accept a circle-lok connector to attach to the gun sprinkler.
Different installers have their own ideas about what is best. Where threaded PVC fittings can be
avoided, it is recommended. Threaded fittings have half the strength of solvent weld fittings.
Schedule 40 fittings have approximately 60 to 72 percent of the strength of the Schedule 80 fittings.
Some installers use a gate valve off of the side of the hydrant and install the air relief/vacuum relief
valve on top of the hydrant. The sprinkler is then attached to a fitting beyond the gate valve.
Since most of the area is flat, air relief/vacuum relief valves only need to be installed at the last
hydrant on the ends of the laterals. This needs to be at least 1.5-inch valve. It can be cast aluminum,
steel or brass,probably cast aluminum. There also needs to be an air-relief/vacuum relief valve and
a pressure relief valve at the pumps.
When installing the second pump and motor,it is reasonable to have it discharge into the 4-inch Z-
pipe that has already been installed and then increase the size of the pipe in the ground from 4-inch
to 6-inch.
Since the pipe being installed will be gasketed pipe,thrust blocks will be needed at all tees, ells and
pipe ends. The hydrants need a ring of concrete around the top of the hydrant(square of cement 18
inches by 6 inches thick) but do not necessarily need thrust blocks on the tee in the ground.
However, if the trench is much wider than the tee, it is advisable that the soil be thoroughly
compacted on each side of the tees or that concrete be poured on each side of the tee.
Soil cover should be approximately 36 inches for the 6-inch pipe, 30 inches for the 4-inch pipe and
24-30 inches for the 3-inch pipe.
The aluminum pipe needed to irrigate the Spence field,Field 6,Tract 2076,should be at least 3-inch
diameter. Only one sprinkler should be operated per lateral at one time. The two hydrants along the
edge of the field need to be equipped to connect to the aluminum pipe.
When the wastewater irrigation system is being operated, there will be few times when two
sprinklers are operating adjacent to each other. One case might be Field 1, but even that field can
be irrigated with only one sprinkler operating at one time. There are two ways to look at
precipitation rate. For the purposes of computing the rate at which PAN is being applied,we use the
sprinkler spacing of 140 feet by 140 feet. For the purposes of computing average precipitation rate
we use the effective wetted area of the sprinkler.

Arc angles vary from 145' to 360°. I propose to round these to the nearest part of
half-circle (180"), three-quarter circle (270°) or full circle (360°). The operators
can work with those numbers.

To compute precipitation rate of other than full circle sprinklers, using normal spacing, for half-
circle, PR=0.37 x 2 =0.74 inch/hour. For three-quarter circle, PR=0.37 x 1.5 =0.56 inch/hour.
These numbers need to be used to figure how long to operate the various sprinklers. It is suggested
that when half-circles are operated,that only half-circles be operated, when three-quarter circles are
being operated, only three-quarter circles be operated and when full circles are operated then only
full circles be operated. It would be possible to operate full circle and half-circle at one time and
operate the half circles, half as long as the full circle.
Table 1 shows the different arc angles and the arc to be used in computing how long to run each
sprinkler and the operating time to apply 0.5 inch of wastewater. It is recommended that maximum
applications be held to 0.5 inch. It is recognized that rounding arc angle off to the nearest 90' will
give over application or under application, but there has to be a practical system to compute
operation time.
Even though both pumps will feed into a common discharge line each will need a suction pipe and
strainer,a hand operated diaphragm pump for priming and on the discharge side of the pump a check
valve for each pump to ensure that one pump does not pump back on the second pump. The suction
line should be connected to the pump with an eccentric connector. The suction pipe should be 4-
inch. The suction strainer should have openings no larger than 1/4 inch. The two suction strainers
should be separated by at least 8 feet.
Calculations of Total Dynamic Head (TDH)
There will be two types of pipe on this system,the Schedule 40, IPS, PVC plastic pipe which was
installed in the old system and Class 160,IPS,PVC plastic pipe which will be installed in the retrofit
and the new system. The schedule 40 pipe will have slightly higher friction loss, but normally only
one or at most two sprinklers will be operated on that pipe at one time. On the new 3-inch laterals,
only one sprinkler will be operated at one time. With the use of the 6-inch supply line,the friction
loss to the most distance point is approximately 3 psi, so I have not computed friction loss for each
hydrant. Also because there is little elevation change, no value is shown for elevations.

ARplication of Wastewater
The time required to operate a sprinkler to apply 0.5 inch of wastewater is shown in Table 1. During
the growing season for coastal bermuda, applications of wastewater should not occur any closer
together than three days and should not occur any closer to a rainfall event than three to four days.
During the growing season for the small grain hay,there should be applications at or near planting
and possibly one application during December-February and the other applications during March.
In the winter months application amounts may need to be reduced to 0.2 - 0.3 inch and not closer
together than every seven days.
The total amount of wastewater applied should not exceed the PAN allowed by the Waste Utilization
Plan. This is 225 pounds per acre annually on the hybrid coastal bermuda and 110 pounds per acre
annually on the small grain hay. The nutrients should be applied to the coastal bermuda after each
cutting and to the small grain hay before or near planting, once it germinates and then when it is
actively growing in early March through the month of March.
According to NRCS Standard 633-46, copy enclosed, the wastewater should contain 45 pounds of
PAN per acre-inch (1.67 pounds per 1000 gallons) and the facility should generate 0.12 acre-inch
per sow per year(or 184.8 acre inch) (0.12 acre-inch/sow x 1540 sows= 1848 acre-inch). Based on
an application area of 29.59 acres, this is 6.25 acre-inch per acre. The coastal bermuda should
receive 4.2 acre-inches per acre and the small grain hay should receive 2.05 acre-inches per acre.
This will be approximately eight applications to the coastal bermuda hay and four applications to the
small grain hay. An extremely wet year such as 1996 could increase the amount of wastewater that
needs to be applied and a dry year could reduce the amount. I have assumed the same PAN loading
rates on all fields. The small field of Wickham and Autryville is only 6 percent of the total
application area so that should not be a problem.
Accurate records need to be maintained on the pumping times. It is important not to over apply with
the part circle sprinklers. The records should indicate the amount applied and the days on which
applications were made. This should be done for each riser. I have not numbered the risers,but they
should be numbered and records kept in that manner. Forms IRR-1 and IRR-2 are found in the
Certification Training for Operators of Animal Waste Management Systems Manual which you
received when you attended the certification training.
Pumping should occur as much as possible during daylight hours, but not in winds over 10 mph. It
is important that the pressure be maintained at between 80 and 84 psi at the pump to give
approximately 70 psi at the sprinkler nozzle. I would suggest that you have a good glycerin filled
pressure gauge on each gun sprinkler and occasionally check pressure to be sure the proper pressure
is being maintained.
It is recommended that a flow meter be installed at the pump station so that the operator can
determine the total volume of wastewater that is being applied at each application. While this is not
absolutely necessary, it is a good method to use in determining the amount of wastewater applied.
It is recommended that at least once per year that an evaluation be conducted of the land application
system. That evaluation should involve at least four sprinklers in each of at least two locations in
9
the land application site. This can be done using the procedures developed by Drs. Barker and
Evans. A copy of this draft document is enclosed since the final document has not been prepared
and there is no ruling on the exact procedure that will be required by DWQ. To maintain a proper
liquid level in the lagoon, land application should occur, assuming the soil is not wet and there is an
actively growing crop or one will be planted within 30 days, when the liquid level goes above the
start pumping level. The lagoon should never be allowed to reach the freeboard level and should not
be pumped into the treatment volume level.
Pipe Installation
All of the pipe will be bell and gasket Class 160, IPS, PVC plastic pipe and the fittings shall be
gasketed Class 200, IPS, PVC plastic such as those manufactured by Harco or Schedule 80 fittings.
The tees for the risers shall be Schedule 80, IPS, PVC plastic ( G x G x S). The riser will be
Schedule 80, IPS, PVC plastic. The pipe shall have a minimum 30-inch cover.
The gate valves(isolation valves) shall be cast iron,epoxy coated body, 175 psi rated, stainless steel
stem 1.5-inch or 2-inch operating nut and replaceable disc. It is recommended that the gate valve
be gasketed but it can be flanged or threaded.
Either end caps or end plugs can be used. All turns (ells, tees) shall be thrust blocked and the gate
valves will be thrust blocked as will the ground entry.
Record Keeping
The latest regulations require that records on wastewater application be maintained for five years.
This includes pumping records, lagoon level, piezometer readings, etc. Senate Bill 1217 also
requires that the soil be tested annually within 60 days of land application. Waste samples should
be analyzed at least annually, but it is recommended that this be done quarterly.
There is also a requirement that an Emergency Action Plan (EAP). Details for the Emergency
Action Plan are given in Chapter 5, Certification Training for Operators of Animal Waste
Management Systems Manual. This plan deals with lagoon overflow,runoff from waste application
fields, leakage from the waste distribution system and leakage from the base or sidewall of the
lagoon. All of the items in the EAP are common sense things to do if there is a problem. All farm
workers need to be familiar with the plan and how to respond if an emergency occurs.
Each farm will receive two inspections per year, one compliance inspection from DWQ,
NCDEHNR, and one operational inspection from the North Carolina Division of Soil and Water.
Both inspections will use the same forms. Items that are not in compliance with the Wast Utilization
Plan can be cited as violations. It is important that the Waste Utilization Plan be implemented and
followed.
10
Maintenance
There should be no land application of wastewater during freezing weather. The pump, the above
ground portion of the discharge pipe and the suction line should be drained during freezing weather.
The risers should be drained to approximately one foot below the surface during freezing weather.
Any liquid in the pipe in the ground should not freeze. The simplest way to drain these pipes is to
install a drain valve at the low point in the pipe, however, be sure that the wastewater does not drain
to a stream, ditch, etc. Only about 25-30 gallons of water need to be drained.
Check the air relief/vacuum relief valves at least a couple of times per year to see that they are
operating properly and are not leaking.
It is recommended that a ring of concrete(6 inches deep, 18 inches square) be poured around the top
of each riser. Check this at least once per year to see if there is any cracking.
Check for leaks each time an application of wastewater is made. Repair any leaks immediately.
Wash down the sprinklers and sprinkler carts at least once per year. Ensure that the sprinkler is
turning freely and that the nozzle has not worn more than 0.05 inch without replacing the nozzle.
Equipment
A complete list of equipment is not being furnished because it is difficult to know what can be
salvaged from the existing system and how much of that equipment can be used. There will certainly
be some equipment that can be used and some will have to be replaced. Most of the hydrants are in
the wrong location. A total of 76 hydrants will be needed. Of this number 69 are permanent
hydrants. Of the 18 presently installed hydrants, 14 need to be relocated.
Approximately 1700 feet of 6-inch Class 160, IPS, PVC plastic pipe, 1160 feet of 4-inch Class 160,
IPS, PVC plastic pipe and 6560 feet of 3-inch Class 160, IPS, PVC plastic pipe will be needed. All
of this is gasketed pipe. At the end of each lateral,the hydrant can be constructed of a 90° ell, stack
and valve or a tee can be used instead of the 90° ell with 5 feet of pipe beyond the tee, which will
act as a trash collector and then put an end cap or plug on the end of the pipe. I personally prefer the
extra 5 feet of pipe in order to not have to worry about clogging of the hydrant on the end of the line.
There is an isolation valve going to Field 1. 1 would recommend isolation valves on each of the long
laterals in Field 2a but there are not required. You could put one isolation valve going to Field 2a
and only open it when you are irrigating in that field. The idea of isolation valves is to keep the
whole system from being pressurized during irrigation events. Where the supply line goes across
Field 2a, crosses can be used to connect the two laterals or two tees can be used. With the amount
of pipe of this system, there will be a considerable amount of wastewater being stored in the pipe.
Isolation valves also allow someone to work on a portion of the system while another portion is
being operated. If you do not put gate valves on each lateral in Field 2a, I would certainly put one
Of the 6-inch line going into the field, but having one on each lateral is recommended.
11
Approximately 420 feet of Class 150,3-inch aluminum pipe and three hydrant valves are needed for
the Spence field. That pipe will need to be moved around to irrigate the entire field. To have enough
pipe for the entire field will require 980 feet of pipe and seven hydrants. Also three end plugs will
be needed.
One 10 HP single phase electric motor and Berkeley B 1 1/2 TPM pump needs to be equipped with
6 9/16-inch impeller will be needed. The pump needs to be equipped with a manual disconnect
switch, magnetic starter with heaters, glycerin filled pressure gauge, check valve, diaphragm hand
primer, 4-inch suction pipe with strainer, with suction hose connected to pump with eccentric
connector.
Several tees and ells will be needed. They can be gasketed Schedule 80, IPS, PVC plastic or Class
200. Gate valves should be cast iron,epoxy coated body, 175 psi pressure rated,stainless steel stem,
1.5 or 2.0-inch operating nut and replaceable disc. Valves can be gasketed, flanged or threaded.
The supplier of the equipment will find it necessary to provide other fittings and components that
are not listed or to possibly make substitutions for equipment that is listed. However substitutions
should not be made that are not at least equal to that listed. The supplier/installer of the equipment
is required to ensure that the installation is in accordance with the specifications to include the
installation of the concrete thrust blocks. The installer shall certify the installation in accordance
with the AWC Certification dated April 24, 1996, or have someone authorized to approve the
certification to ensure that the system is installed as designed.

* For purposes of single sprinkler operating by itself,precipitation rate for full circle is 0.2 inch per hour,
for three-quarter circle is 0.30 inch per hour and for half-circle is 0.4 inch per hour. However for a spacing
of 140 x 140, the precipitation rate is 0.37 per hour for full circle, 0.56 inch per hour for three-quarter circle
and 0.74 per hour for half-circle.
** Lines 2 and 3 have a sprinkler spacing of 135 feet. This changes the precipitation rate approximately 3
percent, which is not significant.

,, Performance is shown with Taper Bore nozzles only. Distance of throw with Ring nozzles and Taper/Ring nozzles is slightly lese. Consult factory for
complete performance details.
The lower trajectory angles result in better wind fighting ability,but reduced throw distances. Throw reduction depends upon nozzle flow rate. In general
the throw distance is reduced approximately 3%with each 30 drop in trajectory angle.
Performance data has been obtained under ideal test conditions and may be adversely affected by wind,poor hydraulic entrance conditions or.other
factors. Test riser height of three feet above measurement surface. No representation regarding droplet condition,uniformity,application rate or
suitability for a particular application is made herein.

Mr. Owens:
Please review the attached plan and specifications 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. The Soil Conservation Service will not be responsible for the lagoon
construction without this pre-construction conference. The Soil Conservation Service
will walk over the site and discuss any questions you, or the contractor may have about
the project. In addition the Soil Conservation Service will mark off the lagoon site
with flags. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to keep a check on all cuts and
fills. At the completion of the construction the Soil Conservation Service will do a
construction check to see if everything meets S.C.S. plans and specifications.
The actual amount of material required for the dike, and any pads to be built may vary
slightly from the estimates. The design will attempt to balance cuts and fills as closely
as possible. In addition to the normal excavated yards there will also be an additional
undercutting of 1 foot along both sides and both ends for a sandy clay liner that is
necessary because of the sandy nature of the soil where the lagoon is to be built. Before
construction begins, it will be necessary to decide where the sandy clay material for
backfill will come from. There might be a small amount of sandy clay material that
will come out of the excavated area and that will need to be set off to one side and
saved to reduce the amount of backfill that will have to be hauled in. Also all topsoil
will need to be stripped off the top and placed off to one side, so that when the dike is
complete the topsoil can be placed back on top to ensure a good stand of grass. If
additional material is required after the lagoon is completed, the owner and contractor
will negotiate on the price and location of borrow area.

Note: the actual amount of backfill for the old lagoon may vary and be less than
calculated because the old lagoon may be fuller than anticipated. In addition, the old
lagoon will need to be pumped out as much as possible before backfill operations are
started. Also, since there will be an excess of material, some place will need to be set
aside for disposal.
If you have any questions please call us at 484-8479.
Yours truly,

SHEET 1 OF 2
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 will be considered adequate when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed using the more impervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of 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 SCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH) .
REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.

SHEET 2 OF 2
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. 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 perme-
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-
blished 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 tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The the
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
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 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s) . If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
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.
y The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre-
charged to 1/2 its capacity 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 50.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 47.4 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 200308 cubic feet or
1498302 gallons.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change
over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear
tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in
an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while
decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design
will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application
uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller
droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle.
Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of
mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly
reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to ensure
proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is
recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in
the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and
determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a
graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform
additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform
opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily
transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout
the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers
should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out
collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You
should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On
a windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for
concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage
levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is
dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as a
thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means that at the first sign of plant growth in the
later winter/ early spring, irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done
whenever the land in dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available
in the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer/ early fall the lagoon should be pumped
down to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made
to maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigated 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 fertilized 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 on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by
mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of 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 allowed 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 should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon
and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be checked should
include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes --look for:
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes
2
Riverview Farm AWS260025
Lagoon surface -- look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment --look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or"jug" holes
2. side slope stability--slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack or vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the 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.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon
has any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a
threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted 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, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need of repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that
you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your
pumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will
allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is
not the time to think about switching, repairing, or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your
lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an
inventory of spare parts or pumps.
• Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface drainage
waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot
runoff) away from 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 rainfall that
hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system for the
following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
3
Riverview Farm AWS260025
Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance 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 then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall 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 overnow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into
the lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full 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).
5. 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
volume. This seeding should occur at least two weeks prior to the addition of
wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below 7.0, add
agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume
until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological
activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these
conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily
are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are
drained and recharged each day, also work well.

Riverview Farm AWS26OO25
• Practice water conservation --- minimize building water usage and spillage from
leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and
water conservation.
• Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This will reduce
the amount of solids entering the lagoon.
Management:
• Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full
temporary storage level.
• Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level
and the maximum liquid level. (Figure 2-1).
• Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient
requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the
summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer / early fall to
provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter.
• The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the
dam or embankment.
• Don not pump the lagoon liquid level lower than the permanent storage level unless
you are removing sludge.
• Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and
as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
• Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded
feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
• Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
• Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
• Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
• Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or
before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
• If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:
5
Riverview Farm AWS260025
• proper lagoon sizing,
• mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
• gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
• minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
• have more nutrients,
• have more odor, and
• require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
• Hire a custom applicator.
• Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper- agitator impeller pump through large
- bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix
remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or
forageland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland;
dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm an area beside lagoon
to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to
dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or forageland; and soil
incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and
crop requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage.
Close attention by the pumper or drag-line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner
remains intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you
should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge
can be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon
as possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal
content than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low
phosphorus and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the
chance of erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil-test
phosphors, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus.
As with other wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
6
Riverview Farm AWS260025
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions
which could increase the concern of neighbors.
Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure.
Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach
of the dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility
for ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
• Modification of the lagoon structure -- an example is the placement of a pipe in the
dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design
before placing any pipes in dams.)
• Lagoon liquid levels--high levels are a safety risk.
• Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
• Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
• Liner integrity -- protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or
rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large
discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.

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.
B. 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.
