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
Egli amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cari not be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to strearrs and lakes,phosphorous is a concern- Sobs 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 ofnet 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 greyer than the design storage capacity,
this indicates that the plan calls for the application ofnutrieNs 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 Manazement
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 prehihite&
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 lA 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 disldng 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).
517971 u`Database Version 3.1 Dale Printed:8/2/2006 Specification Paize i

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to egged the soil infiltration rate
�- such that runoff does not occur offske 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.
S. 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 brealdng 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

14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public
right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,or
wetlands by a discharge or by over-spraying. Animal waste may be applied
to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a
land application site by a"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways,waste shall be applied at agronomic rates
in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
517971 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed:8M2006 Specification Page 2

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

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 arras 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
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

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s):Pvt 1,Rl,R6,R7
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain,Mineral Soil,Moderately Well 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 bulac 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 l'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.Apply 60 to 100 lb/ac N in the
establishment year in split applications in April and July.For established stands apply 180 to 2401b/ac N
annually in split applications,usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts. 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 following crop note applies to field(s):Pvt 1,Rl, R6,R7
Small Grain: CP,Mineral Soil,medium 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 and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time.The
remaining N should be applied during the months of February-March.

ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
DUPLIN COUNTY
INTRODUCTION
Mr. Ernest Carter is planning on building a 2400 Topping Hog Operation. Mr. Carter
has enough land to apply the effluent on. Fie will receive cost-share for the animal
waste lagoon under Limestone & Muddy Creek land treatment funds.
SITE CONDITIONS
The soils on the site are Lynchburg loamy fine sand, Ona fine sand, Plummer loamy
fine sand, and Rains fine sandy loam. These soils range from moderately well drained
Pho go D y ddrained. This site is not in the flood plain.
LA
The system will consist of a treatment lagoon. Effluent from the hog houses will
be flushed into the treatment lagoon. Anerobic activity will take place here. Once
the effluent reaches the relative elevation of 49.5 it will need to be applied to
the land. This elevation will correspond to 1 foot above the pipe invert
The lagoon will a excavated with a 24:1 slope. All dams or dikes will have a com
L"ined slope of �1 with a _IQ __ - foot minium top width. The landowner will be re-
ionsible for obeying all local , state, and national laws and securing necessary
permits. All disturbed areas to be established in permanent vegetation. SCS will
recommend seeding and fertilization rates.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
1. Keep vegetation on embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed.
2. Repair eroded areas and vegetate.
3. Apply lime and fertilization annuaIIy or as needed.
4. It is recommended that there be a minimum of 1 foot of water in the bottom of the
lagoon to cover the solids and prevent excessive odors during startup.

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.
I
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:
1) Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
2) Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
3) Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
4) Call a pumping contractor.
5) Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
b. Runoff from waste application field-actions include:
1) Immediately stop waste application.
2) Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
3) Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
4) Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s)that caused the runoff.
5) Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
c. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers-action include:
1) Stop recycle pump.
2} Stop irrigation pump.
3) Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
4) Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
