Mortality Management Methods
Indicate which methods) will be implemented
When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus seccndary option,
Methods other than those listed must be approved bk the State Veterinarian.
Primary Secondary Routine Mortality
Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground vAthin 24 hours of knowledge of animal
death. The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public body of water
06-403)The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal
high water table. Attach burial location map and plan.
O Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DECK under GS 15A NCAO
13B.0200.
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G,8, 106-168,7.
0 F Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 62C 0102
7 Any method which, in the professional opinionof the State Veterinarian, would make possible
the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or animal health.
(Written approval by the State Veterinarian must be attached),
Mass Mortality Plan
Mass mortality plans are required for farms covered by an NPOES permit, These plans are
also recommended for all animal operations. This plan outline's farm -specific mortality rnar%-
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 CA'VVMP and is activated
when numbers of dead animals exceed normal mortality rates as specified by the State
Veterinarian.
• Burial must be,done in accordance with NC General Statutes and NCDA&CS Veterinary
Division regulations and guidance,
• Mass burial sites are subject to additional permit conditions (refer to facility's animal
waste management system permit).
• In the event of imminent threat of a disease emergency, the State Veterinarian may enact
additional temporary pr6cedures or measures for disposal according to G.S. 106-399,4.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing or running off site. You should riot wait until wastes reach surface waxers
or leave you 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 ore may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed belwo.
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 flows 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:
N
X
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.
Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinkle rs-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.
Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure siphon occurs,
d. Stop all flows 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.
1b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon
bottom as soon as possible.

2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage notes, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property dan-rage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Dees the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or Gaff the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours call your DWQ regional office; Phone - -. After
hours, emergency number: 919-733-3942. Your phone call should include: your
narrie, facility number, telephone number, the details of the incident from itern
above, the exact location of the facility, the location or direction of movernent of
the spill, weather and wind conditions. The corrective measures that hinve been

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
*Nitrogen Only Plan*
PRODUCER: Vaden Bond
LOCATION: Vaden Bond,42 (31-106)
- 0 -1-
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 4120
(Design Capacity)
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 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. 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 thesurface 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 disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problerns.
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.

Your facility is designed for>180 Clays of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on
the average of once every 6 months, In no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure
be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 2.5 year 24
hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the application
equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables, Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may snake this plan invalid. Call your
technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of

'The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the sail at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or pondined occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, sail 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 the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen
shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen

does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, helshe 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.
q Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than d tons per acre per year, Waste may
be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tans, 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).
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.
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 "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the
site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
3 .Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface
is frozen.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively ne'w 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. Wish 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 vvitfr 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 or) a regular basis to
ensure proper, application rates and uniforrnity. Calibration' at least once every
three years is recommended, Calibration involves collecting and measr..rring 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 arnon.ant
without having to perform additional calculations. Hovvever, 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 meascrring.
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 pall. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transact on both
sides of the stun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all
nonuniforrrrity of the application. Can a windless clay, 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
t'roper lagoon liquid 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 beraudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime, This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later whiter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive Magoon 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 clown to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be grade to
maintain ain 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 maXi Mum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not.. leave room for staring excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-ye ir, 24-hour stoma is a violation of
st. at.e law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following.
'Maintenance of a vegetative corer for the darn,
Fescue or common berrnudagrass are the most ca rnmon vegetxative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer ripplied 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 nacre of Til 10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
clone by mowing, spraying, gracing, chopping, or a combination czf
these practices. This should be clone at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable, for
heavy vegetative growth.
Nffl'i;, if vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide n;ust not be allowed to c€1tcr
the 41--0 rrr water. Such chemicals could harm the; bacteria, in the lagoon that are treating
the: waste.

the. lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and sttrrru events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following.
Waste- Inlet Pipes, Recycling pipes, and Overflow pipes ---look for:
l . separation of joints
1 cracks or breaks
1 accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

i
Lagoon surface-- look for.
l , 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. erasion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
1-a ger 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 darn.
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 waive impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the darn, if your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert tamiliax 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 sblution shrine be reviewed by the
technical expert:. Any digging into a lagoon clam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not he conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer pumps ---check for proper operation of;
l . 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 or repair or
replacement.
NOTES pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not. completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perforni your pumping;
system: ntenance at a time when your lagoon is at its lour level. This wilI.. 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,
anu par acing raga r allow) away trom your Lagoon weal omer waste
treatment or storage structures. The; only water that should be
coning from your lagoon is that which comics fronr your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the. following.
I . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. It 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 there
record the level again 4 to b hours alter 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
(yoga must also be recording your rainfall for this to work:). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon risers excessively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface wafter diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land,
Lagoon Operation
Startup*
Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare sail
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2, Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste lauding begins, taking care neat to erode lining or bank slopes.
l'. 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 paeans of slowing the incoming wvaata r to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons In the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (d:aae 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 s cour at least two Week's prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Mainmin a periodic check on tlae lagoon l'tcltaid pH, If the p l falls below
TO, add agricultural lime at the rate of I pound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pll is between T5 and 9.0.
i . A dark color, lack of bulat, ling, and excessive. odor sig[iaals inaclecluate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recornmenderi
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more, frequently and regulaaxly 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 wall.

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
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Mace visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
rninimum liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 21-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the sprint; based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture sea 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 :han I foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as fair 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 lvggoon.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at and 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. dais or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it falls 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
l ' anunat proctuc;tion is to be cerminated, 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 bye

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.
t..agooa Sludge that is removed annually rather than stared long terra will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require rnore land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
hump 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
grad spread onto cropland or forageland; and sail incorporate.
Dewcater the ripper 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 sail. 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 sludgy 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 re>naoving Sludge, you rnclst 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
strap the activity imnie(li4ately and next resume until you are sure, that the sludge can be
removed Withoart liner- inJury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible,

than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phospliorus
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 phosphores, 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.
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
clam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. (terns which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure --an example is the placement of a pipe
in the darn without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing and, pipes in darns.)
l...agoon liquid levels ---high levels are a safety risk,,
Failure to inspect and maintain the loam,
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon,
Liner integrity --protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering 1<.1,90on liquid level below gro undwatcr
table.
NOTE: ff lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the; darn. Once thi � damage starts, it can quickly c:aause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible darn failure.
