Before this storm came, I thought I had enough room to withstand whatever rain I received. On Wednesday, September 8, 2004, around 10:00 AM, I was still under the 18" freeboard mark. But, around 11:00 AM the bottom fell out and within 2.5 hours it had rained about four inches. This last rainfall put me over the mark approximately one inch at one lagoon, and .5 inch at the other two lagoons. Hurricane Frances dropped around 10 inches of rain at these farms. I did not expect this much, but will from now on. On Thursday, September 9, 2004, at 9:00 AM, Kitty Kramer from DWQ contacted me to let me know that she would be at my farms within two hours. In this phone conversation I informed her that I was over my limits on all three lagoons. In doing this, I thought I was covered on the 24-hour notification since a member of DWQ was informed within 24 hours. I know that from now on, I will always have more than enough space in my lagoons when hurricane season comes up. My list of steps would include: -Having enough room in the lagoon -Keeping a close watch on the radar -Filling up all flush tanks before a storm -If the 18" mark is hit to call sooner If you have any questions, please call me at (704) 690-0411.

Comments2 BROWN CREEK Soit Water Cone ion District ,rows o400d-7 NatSll'at Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Animal waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. Plant nutrients in animal waste should be used to reduce amounts of commercial fertilizer required for crops (in the fields where the waste is 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 fertilizer value of animal waste; and, to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1). Always apply waste based on crop needs and nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen. than the crop can utilize. 2). Soil types are important -they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3). Normally waste shall not be applied to land erodingat greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 4). Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the soil surface is frozen. Any of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under NCDWQ regulations. 5). Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6). To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop, to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting, or, to a forage within 30 days of breaking dormancy. injecting waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same; therefore, changing application methods in the future will require a change or revision of this plan. Estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of opera- tion. Actual acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases a plant analysis may be beneficial- and, allow additional waste to be applied. The land area receiving waste should be flexible enough to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for the crop being managed and grown. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica- tion 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 to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity, allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation.... such as increased animal numbers, method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization. 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, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application of other nutrients. 4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. Odors can be reduced by injecting waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather & Climate in North Carolina" in NRCS Field Office Technical Reference File - ENVIRONMENT 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...to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients 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 to crops more than 30 days prior to planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: Waste application cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary; a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch. For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, I995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. Page 5 ANSON COUNTY NC S1cUWiv CREEK Soil Water Conservation District USIIA Natural Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN. 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. 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 wetlands provided they have been approved as a land land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application causes no run- off 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. 19. 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 stntctures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent break- downs, 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 human consumption it should only be applied preplant 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for 5 years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be kept for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Gold Creek Farm - OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN UPDATE This structure is designed to operate as an anerobic lagoon, with waste treatment and 180 days of temporary storage. Time required for the fluid level to fill from STOP pump elevation to START pump elevation may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The 180 day temporary storage in this structure consists of 1.) waste generated by confined animals; and, 2.) excess rainfall after evaporation (5" for Anson County). Additionally the structure can store the 25 year- 24 hour storm (6.3" for Anson County) above the START pump elevation. The volume of waste generated by 3552 confined swine remains fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. Excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall is not considered in the annual pumping cycle... this volume above the START pump elevation must be maintained and available. The START pump or maximum normal operating fluid level is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from the confinement building(s). If the outlet pipe(s) is not installed at the START pump elevation, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation. A STOP pump elevation must also be established to maintain lagoon treatment depth and volume. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations to land apply waste without runoff or leaching, and accommodate weather, soils, crop, equipment, and management situations. Land application is an accepted method of liquid waste disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation; honey wagon application is a more labor intensiveltime consuming method. Be careful when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. IMPORTANT ITEMS 1. Fresh water should not be used for flushing... recycle from the anerobic lagoon. 2. The approved waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste prior to land application. 3. START pumping temporary storage when fluid level reaches elevation 100.6 (or before). STOP pumping when fluid level reaches elevation 98.9. This temporary storage, less 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump) is 41832 cubic feet (312903 gallons) every 180 days .... 83664 cubic feet (625807 gallons) per year. 4. Refer to the approved Waste Utilization Plan for important information on irrigating liquid waste ---- application rates, maximum application amounts per irrigation and rest period between irrigation. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized to maintain a vigorous stand. Keep grazing livestock off all embankment areas. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Keep all surface runoff diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum 25 foot buffer area around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Do not apply waste in open ditches or water courses, within 100 feet of a well or within 200 feet of a residence 9. Maintain a copy of the approved Waste Management Plan on farm (or at the confined animal facility) at all times. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The NC Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources- Division of Water Quality is the responsible for enforcing this law. 1/6/99 ANSON COUNTY, NC State of North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources ,flames B.

OFFICE Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Gold Creek Farm Facility Number 4-7 Anson County A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Robert Heath on 213/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: ❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Robert Heath the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Robert Heath, at 225 Green Street, Suite 714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact Robert Heath at (910) 486-1541. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Robert Heath with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycle&10% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. - You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

Plant nutrients in animal waste should be used to reduce amounts of commercial fertilizer required for crops (in the fields where the waste is 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 fertilizer value of animal waste; and, to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1). Always apply waste based on crop needs and nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen. than the crop can utilize. 2). Soil types are important...they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3). Normally waste shall not be applied to land erodingat greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 4). Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the soil surface is frozen. Any of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under NCDWQ regulations. 5). Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6). To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop, to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting, or, to a forage within 30 days of breaking dormancy. Injecting waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same; therefore, changing application methods in the future will require a change or revision of this plan. Estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of opera- tion. Actual acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases a plant analysis may be beneficial- and, allow additional waste to be applied. The land area receiving waste should be flexible enough to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for the crop being managed and grown. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Natural Resource; Conservation Sertdee WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica- tion 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 to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity, allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation.... such as increased animal numbers, method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization. 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, climate conditions, and level of management, finless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application of other nutrients. 4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 5. 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 & Climate in North Carolina" in NRCS Field Office Technical Reference File - ENVIRONMENT 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 ... to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients 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 to crops more than 30 days prior to planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: Waste application cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary; a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch. For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, I995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]_ NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. Page 5 ANSON COUnTY NC BROWN CREEK soil Water Conse ion District . Natural Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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. 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 wetlands provided they have been approved as a land land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application causes no run- off 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 break- downs, 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 human consumption it should only be applied preplant 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for 5 years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be kept for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Insect Control Checklist - Liquid Waste Systems Source BMPs to Control Insects + Flush Gutters Accumulation of Soilids Flush system is sufficiently designed, and operated as designed. Remove bridging of accumulated solids at discharge. Lagoons and Pits Crusted Solids Maintain lagoon, holding pond, settling basin, pits to minimize crusting (no more than 6-8 inches over 30% of surface). Excessive Vegetative Growth Decaying vegetation Control Vegetation along perimeter banks of lagoons and other structures to prevent accumulation of vegetative matter. Feeders Feed Spillage Design, operate and maintain feed systems (e.g. bunkers and troughs) to minimize accumulation of decaying wastage. Clean up spillage routinely (e.g., 7-10 day interval during the summer; 15-30 day interval during winter). Feed Storage Accumulation of feed Reduce moisture accumulation within and residues around 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).

Time required for the fluid level to fill from STOP pump elevation to START pump elevation may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The 180 day temporary storage in this structure consists of. 1.) waste generated by confined animals; and, 2.) excess rainfall after evaporation (5" for Anson County). Additionally the structure can store the 25 year- 24 hour storm (6.3" for Anson County) above the START pump elevation. The volume of waste generated by 3552 confined swine remains fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. Excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall is not considered in the annual pumping cycle... this volume above the START pump elevation must be maintained and available. The START pump or maximum normal operating fluid level is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from the confinement building(s). If the outlet pipe(s) is not installed at the START pump elevation, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation. A STOP pump elevation must also be established to maintain lagoon treatment depth and volume. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations to land apply waste without runoff or leaching, and accommodate weather, soils, crop, equipment, and management situations. Land application is an accepted method of liquid waste disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation; honey wagon application is a more labor intensive/time consuming method. Be careful when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. 11i•11291at-'L`11>i 111ZVJ 1. Fresh water should not be used for flushing... recycle from the anerobic lagoon. 2. The approved waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste prior to land application. 3. START pumping temporary storage when fluid level reaches elevation 100.6 (or before). STOP pumping when fluid level reaches elevation 98.9. This temporary storage, less 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump) is 41832 cubic feet (312903 gallons) every 180 days .... 83664 cubic feet (625807 gallons) per year. 4. Refer to the approved Waste Utilization Plan for important information on irrigating liquid waste -- application rates, maximum application amounts per irrigation and rest period between irrigation. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized to maintain a vigorous stand. Keep grazing livestock off all embankment areas. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Keep all surface runoff diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum 25 foot buffer area around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Do not apply waste in open ditches or water courses, within 100 feet of a well or within 200 feet of a residence 9. Maintain a copy of the approved Waste Management Plan on farm (or at the confined animal facility) at all times. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The NC Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources- Division of Water Quality is the responsible for enforcing this law. 1 /b/99 ANSON COUNTY, NC Mortality Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after knowledge of death.

A waste treatment lagoon will be constructed to hold and treat the effluent prior to land application. On January 19,1994 a soils investigation was done on the proposed site. A backhoe was used to excavate test pits to determine site suitability for the construction of the proposed lagoon. The predominant soil materials encountered were SM, GM, and SC (unified classification). SM is silty sand, GM is silty gravels and SC is clayey sands. The SC material is satisfactory for fill material to construct an embankment and has a relatively low permeability when properly compacted. Five test pits were excavated. The depth to the SC material varied from one foot below ground surface to three feet below ground surface. Grey mottling was encountered in several of the pits at approximately six feet below ground surface. This indicates that the seasonal high water table is near this level. In test pit number 1 we encountered a layer of ironstone at 8 foot depth that was relatively diffcult to excavate. In test pits numbers 17 and 26 we encountered this same material at 5 foot depth. Conclusion This site is suitable for construction of a waste treatment lagoon. The SM,GM overburden will need to be stripped to exposed the SC material to be used in the embankment. The embankment will require zone placement to maximize the SC material. A sheepsfoot roller will be required for construction of this lagoon. Some of the overburden may possibly be used in the outer shell of the embankment. Some difficultity will be encountered in excavation of the ironstone layer that was found. SCS-ENG-S]B 14.. 5-70 U.
