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. RECEIVED ! Di;NR !

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, helshe 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 S 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. 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, [he 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 offske 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 I, 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, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Stripsl. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. 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. Page 5 ANSON COUNTY NC BRAWN CREEK Soil Water Conservarion District USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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, drainaeeways 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 gassed 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 preplan with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season- 2 1. 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 vears. 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.

".�y, . 1i.A� ,,l N.S`ON COUNTY, NC BROWN CREEK Soil Water Conservation District USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Huntley -Vernon Farms Inc - 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 intensive/time 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 98.2 (or before). STOP pumping when fluid level reaches elevation 96A. This temporary storage, less 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump) is 38585 cubic feet (288616 gallons) every 180 days .... 77170 cubic feet (577232 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. 1/16/01 ANSON COUNTY, NC Mortali Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after knowledge of death.

(1) On September 5 we had 25" of freeboard at our farm; (2) We received 9.8" of rain from September 6ah through September 8th (3) On September 9th I inspected the facility and it appeared we were right at 19" of freeboard; however the visual inspection must have been wrong; (4) In addition, sometime early on 9110 the on site farm manager, without thinking, flushed the houses, putting additional pressure on the freeboard; I had not had the opportunity on the loth to visit the farm prior to Ms. Cramer's visit In the future we intend to take the following steps to insure there is not a reoccurrence of this problem: (1) Manage the lagoon level more aggressively during the drier summer months to where we are managing it from the "stop pumping" level to the "start pumping" level and not above; (2) Monitor freeboard levels more aggressively during heavy rain events; and (3) Delay flushing houses during times of freeboard stress if necessary. (4) Immediately inform the DWQ if freeboard levels are below the required 19" Thank you for any consideration you can give us on this matter. We will take the steps outlined above to do our best to keep any further violation from occurring. Jack Vernon OIC Huntley -Vernon Farms, Inc.

Plant nutrients in animal waste should be used to reduce*amounts of commercial fertilizer required for crops (in the Melds 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]. 5. 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). 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, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. NOTE.

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.

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. 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 98.2 (or before). STOP pumping when fluid level reaches elevation 96.4. This temporary storage, less 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump) is 38585 cubic feet (288616 gallons) every 180 days .... 77170 cubic feet (577232 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. 11/25/97 p,NSON COUNTY, NC Huntley -Vernon Farms Inc Swine Farm Phone Numbers Implement this plan if any part of the waste management system for this operation fails or results in overapplication of waste, or discharge of waste to the waters of North Carolina!

T 1 a:r hl Eddie Huntley Anson County NC Investigation Date: March 25, 1994 Location/Description: ASCS Farm 2162 T-3000; south of and adjacent to SR 19607 west of SR IiZ5 Method Used: BacT:onservationlst pits Conducted by: Others present: Robert HortoEddie Huntley SCS DistriEd Huntley Lin Taylor, SPICD Tech. Carl Hi I dr-eth._ backhoe operator - Mr. Huntley is planning to buy this property and build a Carroll's Foods contract swine nursery (3520 wean--to-feeder operation). Swine waste produced in the nursery will be held and treated in a waste treatment lagoon prior to land application. This soils Investigation is to determine site suitability for constructing the proposed lagoon. Site Summary Sell Map Units: 5 5B - Ailey loamy sand, 246E - Badin channery silt loam Findings — Seven test pits were excavated._.one.near the proposed building pad area, six in and around the proposed waste treatment lagoon area. Predominate soil materials encountered were SM, CC, ML and some SC (see unified classification legend on back of Soil Investigation Log Sheet). The CL, and SC materials have relatively :Iow permeability when properly compacted and make satisfactory fill mater('als to construct an embankment. Depths and thickness of these CC, and SC soil construction materials vary (see Soil Investigation Log Sheet). Weathered rock and root: that was difficult to excavate was encountered in pits 2-7. General Soil Mote: This site is near a contact area betyeen residual piedmont soils (from Carolina slakes) and upper coastal plain soils. Coastal plain materials are on the higher elevations... pit L Conclusions — This site has moderate limitations for construction of a lagoon. Decomposed slate rock materials were found in all test pits excavated in and around the proposed lagoon area (pits 7). Since the lagoon will be ex; avated below the eIevatIons exposed In the test pits, the amount and density of rock that will be encountered, and difficulty of excavation cannot be estimated, Eddie Huntley cont'd Possible design considerations due to these rock IImitations on site include: - shallower than normal lagoon depths and larger surface dimensions (length and width). - variable lagoon depth - lower lagoon bottom elevations along bottom side (away from pad) and higher lagoon bottom elevations at upper side (near pad). - lagoon location for deeper tuts near pits 3 and 4—weathered rock exposed in these pits appears softer. - using borrow material adjacent to site to raise pad elevations and impound a larger portion of the lagoon area. (Note: borrow areas need prior approval of SCS/SKO Technician) There are CL and SC" soil materials on site suitable for constructing and lining a swine waste treatment lagoon. Stockpiling and zone placement will be required to mam-imize use of this suitable material. A i - 1.5 ft. compacted clay liner (C:L, SC material) will be required where rock material is exposed during excavation of lagoon bottom and cut side slopes. Some of the overburden SM material and other unsuitable excavated. material may possibly be used in the outer- shell of the embankment (see attached zone fill detail). No consolidated rock material greater than 6 in. In diameter- may be used in the outer shell. A sheepsfoot roller must by used to compact sail construction materials during construction of this lagoon.

DESIGNED BY: ,�ci�� f� ,� C ,gPPROVED BY: �• , �� DATE: blylc/Cj� DATE: % 8/ �- NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN COMMENTS: 7ZIn jita QAcCL)L4R-nn0S FOR—, EX FjVAT1ON Q F1LI- •Q �� SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 98.2 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 96.3 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 37460 cubic feet or 280202 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets.. 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. SHEET 1 OF 2 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ---------------------------------------------------------- FOUNDATION PREPARATION: ----------------------- The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: ----------------------------------- The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible. NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.6 ft. ------ -------------------------------------------------- NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF 2 Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: -------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed shown on a typical cross section in cutoff trench shall be determined by materials. VEGETATION: under the embankment area when the plans. The final depth of the observation of the foundation All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if -the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS ------------------------------- When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as SC, CL, or CH.

' R F-C G:IV ED�l BROWN CREEK Soil Water Conservation District USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION RLANalemuoiry 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. fi). 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.

Irrigation/application rates should not exceed the intake rate for the soil at the time of irrigation... or runoff and ponding can occur. The irrigationiapplication rate is controlled by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, irrigation 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 (PAN) applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. The producer and irrigation designer is responsible for ensuring that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate animal waste on the acres shown in Tables 1 & 2. Failure to apply recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may invalidate this 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 agrreement 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]. 5. 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, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips], NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. 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. Page 5 ANSON COUNTY NC BROWN CREEK Sail Water Conservation District USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN. I4. 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.

M!s.1t- AN.S'ON COUNTY, NC BROWN CREEK,Soil Water Conservation District USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Hundev-Vernon Farms Inc - 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 intensive/time 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 98.2 (or before)_ STOP pumping when fluid level reaches elevation 96.4. This temporary storage, less 25yr-24 hour storm (volume to pump) is 38585 cubic feet (288616 gallons) every 180 days .... 77170 cubic feet (577232 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. 1/16/01 ANSON COUNTY, NC Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after knowledge of death.

USDA -MRCS BROWN CREEK SWCD Anson County NC at Huntley -Vernon Farms Inc 1. Stop the release of wastes Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested actions are listed below. Lagoon Overflow Add soil material to increase elevation of embankment Call a pumping contractor Pump waste to fields at an accceptable rate Stop all flows into lagoon immediatley Runoff of Field Applied Waste Immediately stop waste application Contain waste in a temporary diversion Incorporate waste to prevent runoff Leakage from Pipes, Pumps and Sprinklers Stop recycle pump Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon Evaluate and eliminate reasons) for runoff Evaluate application rate for fields where runoff occured Close valves on leaking pipes to eliminate discharge Stop irrigation pump Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps Leakage from Flush Systems, Houses, Solid Separators Stop recycle pump Stop all flows in house, flush systems, solid separators Stop irrigation pump Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps Make sure no siphon occures Leakage from Base or Sidewall of Lagoon... often seepage as opposed to flowing leaks Dig a small sump or ditch to safely catch seepage, install subersible pump, pump seepage back into structure If seepage is cased by burrowing animals, trap and remove animals, compact clay soil material in holes Have a professional evaluate the condition as soon as possible 2. Assess the extent of problem and record obvious damages. Did waste reach any surface waters? Could spilled waste reach surface waters? Estimate volume of waste released and duration of event Could a rain event cause waste to'reach surface waters? Note Damage... employee injury, fish kills, property damage Are potable wells endangered (on or off property)? Did spilled waste leave the property? Estimate how much waste reached surface waters 3. Contact appropriate agencies. See numbers posted on front of this plan. Call the DWQ (Division of Water Quality)... Regional Office or After Hours Emergency number Have the following information ready: Your name, facility, telephone number, details from item 2 above, exact location of facility, direction of movement of spill, weather/wind conditions, corrective measures taken, seriousness of situation Call local EMS phone number if spill leaves property or enters surface waters... instruct EMS to contact Health Department Contact local SWCD-NRCS Office for advice/technical assistance (also may want to contact Extension Service Office) 4. If none of 3 above works Call 911 or Sherrifs Department, explain situation and ask personnel to contact the proper agencies. S. Contact the Contractor of your choice to begin repair of problem to minimize off -site damage. Contractor Name: Phone: Contact the Techical Specialist who certified the structure (NRCS, Consulting Engineer, etc.). Technical Specialist: R.R. Lin Taylor Work Phone: (704) 594-3516 7.
