The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils,when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed i•" under I)WQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. ' 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1 of 8 I This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made,which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements, In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 2321.28 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 11606.4 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 38 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 92.8512 acres of land. Please note that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. i APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION: The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture,water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. 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 allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations,the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for>180 days 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 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste. 5of8 Application Rate Guide r The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

This plan is based on the new irrigation design prepared by irrigation specialist Kevin Weston and accounts for all setbacks and as well as acreage lost due to new houses that were built. The grower has addtional fields added to this NUP as well as total field (less setbacks) utilization with the use of the honey wagon. The additonal field acreage to be covered with the honey wagon and the crops listed in those acreages are "optional" in this NUP. Only the crops listed on page 3, labeled pulls 1 through 20 are required to to balanace this waste management plan. All grass is written as a combo graze and hay. Producer must remove 1/2 of the yield by cutting for hay. 7of8 { NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of 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 Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, recieving 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, MRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (See 'Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the 1 of 3 { NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: 11 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 than 25 feet to perennial waters. (, Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those 13 owned by the landowner. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 14 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over-spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland 15 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. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 16 2of3 r I NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular 19 basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct ( 20 human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre-plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the 21 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. 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 22 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 soil 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 a minimum of five years. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. 23 t 3of3 1 i :.

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) Cali 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. D. Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators-action include: a) Stop recycle pump. b) Stop irrigation pump. c) Make sure siphon occurs. d) Stop all flow in the house,flush systems,or solid separators. E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks- possible action: a) Dig a small sump or ditch from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon. b) If holes are caused by burrowing animals,trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c) Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and the lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 8 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. i a. Did the waste reach surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage notes, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? If. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g. Are potable water wells in danger(either on or off 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 name, facility number, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2 above, the exact location of the facility, the location or direction of the movement of the spill, weather and wind conditions. The corrective measures that have been under taken, and the seriousness of the situation. b. if the spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS phone number. c. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department. d. Contact CE's phone number, local SWCD office phone number and the local NRCS office for advice/technical assistance phone number. 4. If none of the above works tali 911 or the Sheriffs Department and explain your problem to f them and ask the person to contact the proper agencies for you. 5. Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair or problem to minimize offsite damage. a. Contractors Name: Murphy Brown,LLC b. Contractors Address: P.O. Box 856 Warsaw NC 28398 c . Contractors Phone: (910)293-3434 6. Contact the technical specialist who certified the lagoon (NRCS, Consulting Engineer, etc.) a. Name: Kraig Westerbeek b. Phone: (910) 293-5330 7. Implement procedures as advised by DWQ and technical assistance agencies to rectify the damage, repair the system, and reassess the waste management plan to keep problems with release of wastes from happening again. 9 i INSECT CONTROL CHECKLIST FOR ANIMAL OPERATIONS Source Cause BMP's to Minimize Odor Site Specific Practices (Liquid Systems) Flush Gutters Accumulation of solids (✓)Flush system is designed and operated sufficiently to remove accumulated solids from gutters as designed. ( ) Remove bridging of accumulated solids at discharge Lagoons and Pits Crusted Solids (✓)Maintain lagoons,settling basins and pits where pest breeding is apparent to minimize the crusting of solids to a depth of no more than 6-8 inches over more than 30%of surface. Excessive Decaying vegetation (v)Maintain vegetative control along banks of Vegetative Growth lagoons and other impoundment's to prevent accumulation of decaying vegetative matter along waters edge on impoundment's perimeter. (Dry Systems) Feeders Feed Spillage () Design,operate and maintain feed systems(e.g.. bunkers and troughs)to minimize the accumulation F of decaying wastage. () Clean up spillage on a routine basis(e.g.7-10 day interval during summer; 15-30 day interval during winter). Feed Storage Accumulation of feed () Reduce moisture accumulation within and around residues immediate perimeter of feed storage areas by insuring drainage away from site and/or providing adequate containment(e.g.,covered bin for brewer's grain and similar high moisture grain products). () Inspect for and remove or break up accumulated solids in filter strips around feed storage as needed. Animal Holding Accumulation of animal {) Eliminate low area that trap moisture along fences Areas wastes and feed wastage and other locations where waste accumulates and disturbance by animals is minimal. {) Maintain fence rows and filter strips around animal holding areas to minimize accumulations of wastes (i.e. inspect for and remove or break up accumulated solids as needed). MIC—November 11, 1996 10 Dry Manure Handling Accumulations of animal O Remove spillage on a routine basis(e.g.7-10 day Systems wastes interval during summer; 15-30 days interval during winter)where manure is loaded for land application or disposal. ()Provide for adequate drainage around manure stockpiles ()Inspect for and remove or break up accumulated wastes in filter strips around stockpiles and manure handling areas as needed. The issues checked { ) pertain to this operation. The landowner/ integrator agrees to use sound judgment in applying insect control measures as practical. i certify the aforementioned insect control Best Management Practices have been reviewed with me.

AMIC -- November 11, 1996 11 Version—November 26,2018 Mortality Management Methods { Indicate which methods) will be implemented. When selecting multiple methods indicate a primary versus secondary option. Methods other than those listed must be approved by the State Veterinarian. Primary Secondary Routine Mortality Q Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours of knowledge of animal death, The burial must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public body of water (G.S.106-403). The bottom of the burial pit should be at least one foot above the seasonal high water table.Attach burial location map and plan. D Landfill at municipal solid waste facility permitted by NC DEQ under GS 15A NCAC 13B .0200. Rendering at a rendering plant licenscd under G.S. 106-165.7. Complete incineration according to 02 NCAC 52C .0102. A composting system approved and permitted by.the NC Department of Agriculture&Con- sumer Services Veterinary Division (attach copy of permit). If compost is distributed off-farm, additional requirements must be met and a permit is required from NC DEQ. a In the case of dead poultry only, placing in a disposal pit of a size and design approved by the NC Department of Agriculture&Consumer Services (G.S. 106-549.70). { D Any method which, in the professional opiniorgof the State Veterinarian,would make possible the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or animal health. (Written approval by the State Veterinarian must be attached). Mass Mortality Plan Mass mortality plans are required for farms covered by an NPDES permit. These plans are also recommended for all animal operations. This plan outlines farm-specific mortality man- agement methods to be used for mass mortality. The NCDA&CS Veterinary Division sup- ports a variety of emergency mortality disposal options;contact the Division for guidance. • A catastrophic mortality disposal plan is part of the facility's CAWMP and is activated when numbers of dead animals exceed normal mortality rates as specified by the State Veterinarian. • Burial must be:done in accordance with NC General Statutes and NCDA&CS Veterinary Division regulations and guidance. • Mass burial sites are subject to additional permit conditions(refer to facility's animal waste management system permit). • In the event of imminent threat of a disease emergency, the State Veterinarian may enact additional temporary procedures or measures for disposal according to G.S. 106-399.4.
