The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater_ The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established_
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
B. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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

The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 2016 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 10080 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayiand at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 33 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 80.64 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
'This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either awns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide
evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recievinq crop type, or available land.
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for
other nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons
per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See
USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
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 than 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 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
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.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

(continued)
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
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 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 products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

During our annual Soil and Water Inspections on November 13, 2008 at the French's
Creek sow farm we discovered over applications pertaining to three separate irrigation
events.
Danny Edwards with Soil and Water identified the over applications and contacted the
Division of Water Quality that day to inform Mr. Revels of the over applications.
Through a series of events, increasing our pan balance in June 07, approved by Rick
Morris, NRCS, to apply more waste water to a needy Bermuda grass crop, to changing
the administrator of our records and changing Land and Nutrient personal, the Nutrient
Pan balance was not changed back to the original balance after the 07 season and this
created the over applications.
We have upgraded our record keeping going forward by using lntermec Technologies
handheld computers. This system will only allow us to irrigate within the means of the
current Nutrient Utilization Plan and should warn the technician of any errors within an
irrigation event before the event has taken place.
Protecting the environment is always a top priority in our business and we appreciate the
expertise that we receive from Soil and Water and DWQ.
Please let me know if I can be of any further help.

The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 2016 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above_
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 10080 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 33 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 80.64 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
"This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide
evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application_ It is the responsibility of the
owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recievinq crop type, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for
other nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons
per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See
USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
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 than 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 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
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.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

(continued)
17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible_ Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
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 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 products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Dear Murphy Family Farms:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
Alan W. Klimek, P. E.. Director
Division of Water Quality
October 1, 2004 i RECEIVED
OCT 15 2004
D9aR-FAYEi'TE1llll_E REGI01� OFf10E
Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS090003
FrenchOs Creek Sow Farm
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Bladen County
On June 11, 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your application received on February 13, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to
Murphy Family Farms, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment,
storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of
this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS090003 which expires October 1,
2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the FrenchOs Creek Sow Farm, located in Bladen County, with an animal capacity
of no greater than an annual average of 2400 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as
specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to
Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced
by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC,
you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Fayetteville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Water Quality Staff may be reached at (910) 486-1541. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact Duane Leith at (919) 715-6186.
Sincerely,

(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is
to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all
plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it
is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Amount of Waste Produced Per Year (gallons, ft. tons, etc.)
2,400 animals X 6.09 (tons) waste/animal/year = 14,616 (tons) wastelyear.
Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) Produced Per Year
2,400 animals X 4.79 lbs. PANlanimallyear = 11,500 lbs. PAN/year. (PAN from N.C.
Guide Std. 633) ** see narrative for PAN reduction certification** Tech
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown and
surface application:

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some
eastern counties of North Caroline to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients.

Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage
must be removed on the average of once every ti MONTHS. In no instance should the volume
of waste being stored in your structure exceed Elevation 'see lagoon design.
Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or
Soil and Water Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis report for
assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to
applying the waste.
Narrative of operation: The acres in this plan are 'wetted' acres. This plan is written for
bermuda which will be grazed and cut for hair. Atleast 1/2 of yeild must be removed as hay.
The following is the justification for reduction of Lbs. PANproduced:
The PAN produced was determined using the NC Cooperative Ext. standards for determining
PAN generated. Grower has copies of all IRR-2's and Waste Analysis used to determine this
amount in his file box. Attached to the NUP is a consolidation of that data. The number used

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. if the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to
secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is 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 Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
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 and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
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 more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
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
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they 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.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

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 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 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 storage volume for waste storage ponds.

Bladen County
Dear Murphy Family Fauns:
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General
Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on February 13, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to
Murphy Family Farms, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment,
storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of
this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS090003 which expired on April
30, 2003,
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the French's Creek Sow Farm, located in Bladen County, with an animal capacity of
no greater than an annual average of 2400 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAVR P). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COG you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to to
under this vermit c vev any vrovertv rights in either real or Personal aroverty.

(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is
to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all
plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it
is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application_
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to
secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is 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 Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
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 and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
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 more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
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
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they 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 courses no runoff 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 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.
18 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.
19 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 propellant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
20 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 storage volume for waste storage ponds.
CP
21 Waste shall be tested within �Wdays of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
22 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should
be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting
nutrient. Waste should -be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual sod tests are
strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the
crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer.value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop -to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.. Normally
waste shall,not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year: With
special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not
allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions.should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on
proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2110217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have
appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown
and surface application:

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K maybe over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in
some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shallnot reach surface waters of the state by runoff drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited Illegal
discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the
Division of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2_ The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste.
If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall
provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner
who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste
application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of
the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there
is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization;
or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for. realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS)
or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be
no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used
where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to 'Buffers"
required by DEM. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Enter Strips and Standard 390
(Interim) - Riparian Forest Buffers.]
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disIdng 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 and Climate in North
Carolina" in. the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)

(continued)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not
cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to
control conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application..
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.growiong crops in such a manner that no
more than'20 to 25 percent of the leaf area is covered.
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 more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop
on bare soil-
1 L Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance
may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter
strips are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
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, dramageways 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 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 runoff or drift from the site:
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a ma.mum
operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of.appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for. these areas and 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.
Lagoon 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.
20., 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.

SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
Murphy Family Farms French's Creek hog finishing facility (the Facility) is a 10,000
market hog and 500 boar facility located in Kelly, North Carolina. The finishing hogs will be
brought in weighing about 30 pounds and removed from the Facility and sold when they reach
approximately 240 pounds. The hog manure waste produced from the farm will be treated in
a waste management system prior to discharge to a sprayfield located on the farm property. The
Facility is owned and operated by Murphy Family Farms, Inc. As part of their commitment to
responsible stewardship, Murphy Family Farms, Inc. has decided to install a Bion NMS' (Bion)
System at its new facility. The Bion NMS system is designed to significantly improve the
treatment and reduce the odor for the hog manure waste generated on the Facility.
The Bion NMS System is a patented process developed by Bion Technologies Inc., (Bion)
that treats both the liquid and solid fractions of the wastestream through a complex series of
natural microbial processes. The system will consist of the solids ecoreactor, three bioreactors,
a water storage area, and a sprayfield. The solids ecoreactor captures and dewaters waste solids
which then undergo a biological conversion into biosolids, an organic soil -like material. The
bioreactors reduce Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), suspended solids, and nutrient
concentrations, as well as odor. Excess water will be delivered to a water storage area with
final water disposal through land application onto a sprayfield.
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources
(DEHNR) is the regulatory agency providing oversight at this facility.

SECTION 2
SITE BACKGROUND
The purpose of this section is to discuss the local climatic conditions of the area and to
provide a description of the original site conditions prior to the installation of the BionSoil
treatment system.
2.1 CLIMATOLOGY
The French's Creek hog finishing farm is located in Bladen County, North Carolina.
Table 2.1 presents the monthly precipitation and evaporation data for Bladen County, obtained
from the NRCS rainfall and evaporation tables used for the design and evaluation of waste
management systems (established August, 1996) . A copy of the NRCS precipitation/
evaporation tables for North Carolina has been included in Appendix C. The net excess rainfall
amount for Bladen County is 9.54 inches for 365 days and 7.58 inches for the 180 day
temporary storage requirements (October - March) . The design and operation of the Facility's
BionSoil system is based upon these precipitation and evaporation figures.

2.2 Site Description and Evaluation
The Kelly, North Carolina site is an existing site that has been in production since 1990.
There are two sets of 5 finishing houses, each with it's own treatment lagoon. There is an
additional house containing 500 boars at the northeast site (see site plan, Appendix E). The
existing lagoons are inadequately sized to meet treatment volume and temporary storage volume
requirements for certification. Additionally, there is an inadequate amount of sprayfield to
adequately assimilate the nutrients from a traditional lagoon system for a facility this size. The
predominant soils at the site are sand or loamy sands. Therefore, the entire Bion system will
be new construction, containing a synthetic liner (bioreactors and temporary storage) or an
imported, compacted clay liner (solids ecoreactor cells). The 43 acres presently available as
sprayfield is more than adequate to assimilate the nitrogen concentration coming from the
temporary storage area of the Bion System, given a coastal bermuda grass summer crop and a
rye winter overseeding. The soils are also more than adequate to hydraulically handle the liquid
load. Please see the irrigation plan and sprayfield soil scientist report in Appendix B and the
waste utilization plan in Appendix A for more detail. A recent set of sprayfield soil samples has
been taken and is presented in Appendix B. The general locations of the composite samples
taken in the sprayfield is indicated on the irrigation plan layout, also in Appendix B. There was
a seasonal high water table encountered in test holes at the location of the new construction.
Consequently, all System component elevations that contain temporary storage are at elevations
above the seasonal high water table. There are virtually no neighbors. Please refer to the 1986
USGS Singletary Lake, North Carolina topographic map with the approximate boundaries
outlined, and the ASCS overhead photo following page 9 of 16 of the application form. This
is supplied for site location, along with detailed directions in the application form, and relative
facility locations on both the site plan and irrigation design plan. These references reflect the
livestock house locations, the Bion System location and the acreage available for the 43 acre
sprayfield, as proposed.
SECTION 3
BIONSOIL PROCESS DESIGN
This section provides a description of the new BionSoil treatment system. Bion will
develop and make available an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) manual, to be placed at the
Facility. The O&M manual describes the specific operational and maintenance procedures to
be followed. Additionally, the O&M manual contains the specifications sheets for the various
equipment used in the BionSoil NMS system.
r,
3.1 BIONSOIL SYSTEM INSTALLATION
Construction of the BionSoil system will begin upon regulatory approval. Each reactor
cell is sized according to desired retention time and includes net increase from precipitation and
additional storage capacity for a 25 year, 24 hour storm event. The bottom of the Solids
ecoreactor cells, their berms and side slopes will be lined with 2.0 feet of imported, compacted
clay to meet the .0200 regulatory permeability requirements. The soil on site is not sufficient
to use as liner material. These solids settling areas will be periodically harvested of solids. The
additional depth of liner beyond the regulatory requirement will protect against scarring from
the harvest of the biosolids. The remainder of the System will be lined with a synthetic liner.
40 mil high density polyethylene (HDPE) will be used as the liner material. The properties of
the specific GSE 40 mil HDPE is in Appendix C. This impermeable membrane will be installed
as per the site plan specifications in Appendix E.
The BionSoil system will be located as close to the hog houses as possible and the total
system drainage area encompasses approximately 7.55 acres. There is not sufficient fall to allow
for gravity flow to the Bion System from each set of houses. Therefore, each set of houses will
gravity flow to a 4000 gallon, concrete sump/lift station. Freshly flushed wastewater will be
independently pumped from these two stations to the initial bioreactor in the Bion System.
Please see detail on page 5 of 9 in Appendix E. The system is designed to contain wastewater
as well as divert stormwater from entering the system. The System design drawings for the new
Bion NMS system at the French's Creek Farm site are presented in Appendix E. Table 3.1
follows Section 3 and supplies a design criteria summary for the Facility.
3.2 PROCESS DESCRIPTION
The Bion waste management process treatment flow diagram is presented in Figure 3.1
and the design criteria for the system is summarized in Table 3.1. The site layout and piping
plan with specifications are presented in Appendix E. The detailed design calculations and
references are presented in Appendix C. The BionSoil system consists of an initial bioreactor
(Bioreactor 1) followed by a solids ecoreactor containing two cells. Following the solids
ecoreactor the wastestream flows into a second bioreactor (Bioreactor 2) from which water is
recycled for hog house flushing. Following the second bioreactor the wastestream flows into
a third and final bioreactor (Bioreactor 3) before being lift pumped into a water storage area for
final land application via the sprayfields. This lift pump is necessary to maintain an adequate
amount of temporary storage in the water storage area above the seasonal high water table. The
entire final water storage area (Polishing Ecoreactor) is designed above the seasonal high water
table. Each process unit is discussed in more detail in the following subsections.
3.2.1 Bioreactor 1
Bioreactor 1 (B1) is a 40 mil HDPE lined earthen basin which receives the livestock
house flush waters from the sump/lift stations. The livestock houses are designed to flush fresh
manure under the slatted floor. The fresh manure from the animals drops between and beneath
7
the slats, onto the floor beneath the slats. The liquid waste flows by gravity -to the Lift/sump
stations. The annual flushed input from the eleven livestock houses and other sources (i.e. storm
water etc..) is approximately 43 million gallons/year. The total nitrogen loading from the hog
manure and the recycle water is approximately 533,000 pounds per year. The volume of
Bioreactor 1 is approximately 532,000 gallons yielding a 4 to 5 day retention time on average.
Bioreactor 1 is a high intensity microbial action zone that contains aerobic, anaerobic,
and facultative bacterial populations. Fifteen Hp of aeration provides adequate oxygen to
increase microbial activity and to reduce odors. A 10% reduction of nitrogen through bioreactor
1 is anticipated based on previous operating experience at other systems and site specific design
modifications for lower throughput systems. Please refer to permit application number
WQ0013381, Quin Deca Farm, for extensive and detailed data from a very similar system, and
permit application number WQ0013464, Harrison Pork Production, Inc., for design criteria for
a similarly sized system.
3.2.2 Solids Ecoreactor
Effluent from Bioreactor 1 enters the Solids Ecoreactor by means of a flow control
structure/distribution manifold. The Solids Ecoreactor is a clay -lined earthen basin and is
divided into two cells by means of internal berming and is surrounded by a containment berm.
Flow control structures are used to regulate the wastewater levels in the Solids Ecoreactor cells.
The Solids Ecoreactor is configured such that waste solids will be deposited on the floor of the
cells and water will flow through to an effluent point leading to Bioractor 2. The volume of
each ecoreactor is approximately 490,000 gallons, yielding a 4 to 5 day retention time. All
hydraulic movement through the cells is by means of gravity flow.
The microbial action in the various subenvironments in the Solids Ecoreactor incorporates
nutrients into the solids which will accumulate and settle in the cell. Continuing microbial action
bioconverts the enriched and trapped solids into a stable organic soil -like material.
According to data from North Carolina Department of Agriculture Waste Analysis
Reports from the other Bion NMS hog system, biosolid nitrogen concentration is > or = 3.5%
on a dry weight basis. Assuming the biosolid production rate is 1 cubic yard per animal per
year and a cubic yard of BionSoil weighs 1,700 pounds with a 10% solids content,
approximately 64,450 pounds of nitrogen per year will be incorporated into the biosolids to be
removed from the facility. This reduction amounts to approximately 13.4% of the nitrogen
loading entering the ecoreactors from Bioreactor 1. A total of approximately a 22% reduction
in nitrogen occurs through the solids ecoreactors.
A vehicle access road will travel the length of each Solids Ecoreactor cell. These areas
are elevated above the cell floors and facilitate the removal of the biosolids. The harvested
material will be transported to an off -site location for further processing.
3.2.3 Bioreactor 2
The wastestream will gravity flow from the Solids Ecoreactor effluent points into
Bioreactor 2. Bioreactor 2 is a 40 mil HDPE lined earthen basin with a capacity of
approximately 910,000 gallons, yielding a 7 to 8 day retention time. The bioreactor contains
a 10 Hp aerator and provides additional treatment and storage capacity. Bioreactor 2 is a high
intensity microbial action zone that contains aerobic, anaerobic, and facultative bacterial
populations. The anticipated nitrogen loading from the solids ecoreactor is approximately
377,000 lbs/year. A 10% reduction of nitrogen through bioreactor 2 is anticipated based on
previous operating experience and site specific design modifications for lower throughput
systems.
A flow control structure will be installed at the effluent end of Bioreactor 2 where excess
water is piped to Bioreactor 3. A pumping station consisting of two pumps on floats will be
installed in the middle of the second bioreactor. This pump will recycle water to a series of
holding tanks near the barns where it will be used for flushing the hog houses.
Bion estimates the steady state average nitrogen concentration in Bioreactor 2 to be 925
to 975 mg/L, based on operating experience from other Bion systems.
Water from bioreactor 2 will be used to fill the flush tanks for the livestock houses.
Approximately 34 million gallons/year is recycled from bioreactor 2 to the livestock houses and
the head of the treatment system. Additionally, approximately 267,000 lbslyear of nitrogen are
recycled back to the head of the treatment system, thereby substantially decreasing the volume
and nitrogen loading entering bioreactor 3, relative to the large flow throughput of the internal
bioreactor 1 - solids ecoreactor - bioreactor 2 internal recycle loop. The effluent water that is
not recycled flows from bioreactor 2 into bioreactor 3.
3.2.4 Bioreactor 3
Bioreactor 3 settles out residual solids and further treats the wastestream through
enhanced microbial activity. Bioreactor 3 will be a 40 mil HDPE lined earthen basin with a
capacity of approximately 1,500,000 gallons and an influent flowrate of approximately 10.5
million gallons/ year, yielding a 52 day retention time, on average. The bioreactor contains a
5 Hp aerator and provides additional treatment and storage capacity. The retention time is
sufficient to achieve a significant level of nitrification/denitrification. The anticipated nitrogen
loading from bioreactor 2 is approximately 79,000 lbs/year. A 40% to 50% reduction of
nitrogen through bioreactor 3 is anticipated based on previous operating experience.
Based on theoretical calculations and experience with related systems, Bion estimates the
average total nitrogen concentration to be approximately 600 mg/L (on the conservative side,
using a 40% reduction). Overflow from bioreactor 3 will enter the water storage area.
9
3.2.5 Water Storage Area
The Water Storage Area is essentially an anaerobic environment that will hold
approximately 256 days of retention time, and in excess o€180 days of temporary storage. The
anaerobic activity and extended retention time with a dramatically decreased nitrogen load will
further reduce the nitrogen content a conservative 70%. This will yield an average measured
concentration of approximately 200 mg/L. The water will be dispersed from this area to the
allotted sprayfield.
3.2.6 Spravfield and Irrigation System
Final water disposal is to the sprayfield. Given the water treatment capabilities of the
System, a number of options are possible for the sizing and use of the sprayfield. First, a
reduction in the total sprayfield size necessary for the operation can be achieved through capture,
uptake, and removal of nutrients in the Solids Ecoreactor and bioreactors. This would allow for
a sprayfield to be sized according to hydraulic loading instead of nutrient loading criteria.
Second, since the System can regulate nutrient levels in the wastewater discharged to the
sprayfield, a number of crop options are possible.
The system as currently designed will utilize 43 acres of sprayfield. The nutrient
application rate and annual loading limit on a sprayfield is determined by the type of crop
planted. The French's Creek Finishing Facility sprayfield will be planted with Coastal Bermuda
Grass (hay) and overseeded with rye (small grain) annually for winter application. The NRCS
annual nitrogen application rate for Coastal Bermuda Grass is 225 pounds per acre (conservative
estimate) on the Leon and Centenary sprayfield soil combination present on this site. The NRCS
realistic yield tables for rye on these soils indicates an additional 180 lbs of nitrogen uptake, per
acre. However, we will estimate a conservative 50 lbs per acre, thus yielding a total annual
nitrogen uptake of 275 lbs per acre. The annual nitrogen application rate from the Bion System,
as irrigated, will be in the range of 160 to 200 (maximum) lbs/acre, well below the NRCS
criteria. The higher acreage above that required for nutrient loading is factored in to
accomodate Bion's position as an alternative/innovative system.
Additionally, there are some indications that the nitrogen uptake for Coastal Bermuda
may be significantly higher as the supplemental water from the system will provide a higher
tonage yield per acre than assumed in this report.
The irrigation system for the application of the wastewater will utilize Senniger 7025
sprinklers with a 0.25" nozzle. The system will be zoned to run 15 sprinklers per routine, at
13 gal./min./sprinkler. The daily application rate (10 hour application day) is 117,000 gallons.
The "solid set" irrigation system sprinklers will be on 80' x 80' spacing with wastewater
application rates and sprayfield surface contour modifications as dictated in the soil scientist's
report. Utilizing these recommendations and the proposed irrigation system layout, 43 acres
may be effectively covered while maintaining the required setbacks. Please see Appendix B for
the irrigation system layout and the sprayfield soil scientist's report.
10
3.2.7 Existing Lagoon Management
The existing lagoons will be taken out of service and turned into fresh water ponds.
Please see page 9 of 9 in Appendix E for the closure plan on the existing lagoons.
3.3 Biosolids Management Plan
Detailed records will be kept regarding the volume and NCDA nutrient analysis of
biosolids removed from the Facility. These records will be kept on file at both the Facility and
at Bion's office. This information will be necessary in order to keep track of actual nutrient
removal associated with the Bion System as it functions on this specific site.
3.4 Contingency Plan for Waste Treatment
Murphy Family Farms agrees to make available additional sprayfield acreage and/or
modify livestock operations should the Bion System not meet the design and performance criteria
set forth in this permit application and Engineering Report (see Appendix D for the
acknowledging letter). The Waste Utilization Plan will be modified to meet the new criteria and
Facility operations will be altered to limit nutrient loading during the waste utilization plan
modification. Specific additonal sprayfield locations and engineering will be developed as
needed. Murphy Family Farms' desire to maintain as much of the land as possible in it's natural
state is one of the primary reasons for installing the Bion NMS as opposed to a conventional
anaerobic lagoon wastewater treatment system.

Waste Utilization Plan, Water and Nutrient Balance
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
September 18, 1997
PRODUCER: Murphy Family Farms, Inc. - French's Creek Finishing Facility
LOCATION: 12773 NC Highway 53 E, Kelly, NC 28448 (Bladen County)
TELEPHONE: 910-669-2615
TYPE OF OPERATION: Feeder to finish, swine
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 10,000 hogs design capacity, + 500 boars
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to
prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant available nutrients in the animal
wastewater should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the
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 required so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to
be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the wastewater and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and
the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil
types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation
exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally, waste shall not be
applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions,
waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste
on saturated soils, when it is raining or when the surface is frozen. Either of these
conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under Department of
Water Quality (DWQ) regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. This plan is based on waste
application through irrigation for this is the inanner in which you have chosen to apply your
waste. If you choose to change the manner in which you apply the waste in the future, you
need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the wastewater is based on the nutrient content as
indicated for the BionSoil Nutrient Management System designed specifically for your
facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste
management facility. Periodic sampling of the wastewater will provide you with the
information you will need, as per your permit monitoring plan.

Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e., interplanted). in fields where small
grain is interseeded in coastal bermuda grass and removed for hay or silage, care should be
taken not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e., April or May).
Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the
stand of bermuda grass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the
normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two or three times during the season, depending on the time
the small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain is late
September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermuda grass
should be mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

acres in the fields listed will most likely be more than the acres shown in the table. See the
irrigation layout in Appendix B showing the fields to be used for utilization of the
wastewater.
Note: Please refer to the Engineering Report portion of the permit application for specific
information on the quantities and nitrogen content of the biosolids, as well as nitrogen
reduction that will occur throughout the Bion System as a result of the process.
Application of Wastewater by Irrigation
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time
of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture
content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of
irrigation, nor should the PAN applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
The facility is designed for over 180 days of temporary storage and should be applied
to the indicated crops as required during the specified application times. In no instance
should the volume of waste being stored in any component of the Bion System be within 1.6
feet of the top of the berm.
It is the responsibility of the Producer and the irrigation designer to ensure that an
irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres specified in the WUP. Failure to
apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen in the tables may make this plan
invalid.

C. Nutrient balance, nitrogen limiting
1. The crop planted is Coastal Bermuda Grass (hybrid, hay) and an overseeded small
grain (rye) in the winter. Realistic yield on the Centenary and Leon soil types
for the Bermuda Grass is 4.5 tons per acre and 50 pounds of nitrogen per ton.
The small grain rye conservative realistic yield is 1.0 ton per acre and 50
pounds of nitrogen per ton. These should be conservative numbers, especially
in the presence of supplemental water, which our system naturally supplies.
Thus, total nitrogen uptake for 43.04 acres (see irrigation plan, Appendix B)
is:
(BG) 4.5 tons/ac x 50 lbs N/ton = 225 lbs/ac
225 lbs/ac x 43.04 ac = 9684 lbs of N on 43.04 acres at FC in Coastal
Bermuda Grass
(SG) 1.0 ton/ac x 50 lbs N/ac = 50 lbs/ac
50 lbs/ac x 43.04 ac = 2152 lbs of N on 43.04 acres at FC in Sm. Grain (rye)
9684 + 2152 = 11,836 lbs of N total taken up on 43.04 acres at FC.
2. The NCDA guidelines and analytical results indicate a 50% reduction in crop
available nitrogen content when spray irrigation is used as the application
method. Therefore, 11,836 lbs of nitrogen uptake capacity (per year) in the
sprayfield crop translates to 23,672 lbs of nitrogen allowable (per year) in the
Polishing Ecoreactor/temporary storage area. Consequently, the the NCDA
measured ppm concentration allowable is:
_ 3,672 lbs N
11,474,502 gal x 8.34 lb-1/gal-kg = 247 ppm total N as measured by NCDA
is allowable to maintain a 43 acre
sprayfield.

Murphy Family Farms is seeking a non -discharge permit from the Division
of Water Quality, Fayetteville Regional Office, for a wastewater system to serve
their existing finisher operation off Hwy. 53 in Bladen County. The existing
anaerobic lagoon treatment system is being proposed for replacement with a
Bion System Wastewater Treatment Facility.
Regulatory authority of this operation is with the Division of Water Quality
which classifies this activity as animal waste and requires a non -discharge
permit for operation of the proposed facility.
This report was prepared as an aid to the final irrigation design/permit
submittal and will consist of a description of the proposed site including the basic
soils found on the site, their potential for use with spray irrigation, and
recommended instantaneous loading and monthly drainage potential. Mr. Neal
Tucker, P.E. of Murphy Family Farms will prepare the water -balance and
Graham Environmental Consulting, lnc.(GECI) will concur concerning the final
recommended average monthly loading rate.

The proposed site is located north of Highway 53 approximately 1 mile
soutt east of lagoon near White lake, N. C., Bladen County. The specific
locoft should be shown on map prepared by Mr. Neal Tudker, P.E.. GECI has
ersdosed a copy of a sr% mp, Page I of the Appendix, that we will refer to

Soil borings were performed over the entire tract with the eaooeption of the
prior established wetlands areas. The Site Map -Page 1-Appendix gives the
location and approximate areal extent of the 4 general soil types we mapped for
the site. A profile description for each soil type is located on page 2 of the
Appendix In review of the soil profile descriptions. Soils 1 and 2 ate fairly
uniform In soil characteristics with depth to seasonal high water4able accounting
for the variability.
Soils 3 and 4 occur along a linear slope to foot -slope positions with minor
draws and isolated depressional areas(referenved as "wet' areas). The
inclusions of spodic horizons within these two soil units are consistent with the
Leon and other sandy somewhat poorly and poorly drained spodosals such as
the Murville Series. Spodosols, such as Soils 3 and 4 formed In landscape
positions where dissolved minerals and organics flowed rapidly from upland
areas and settled out in the flatter landscape potions. In their natural setting's
these soils would have extended periods of the year where saturation at or near
the soil surface would be possible.
In review of the site map, it can be seen that an open ditch around the
perimeter of the existing lagoon inftvec ted this linear slope over a large area.
The ditch location and depth is cxMcal in that we expect a slg cart reduction in
lateral flow has taken place. This reduction in lateral flow and hydraulic loading
is critical for the utilizWon of Soil 3.
Soil type 4 aW associated depressions, contains soils, by soil color,
whlch indicated very poorly drained soils. These soils occur along the toe slope
and concave landscape position with limited surface drainage. The subsoil
below the high organic matter content surface was a combination of sand to
loamy fine sand with loose consistence and dense spodic horizons. It would
appear that utilization of these soils will require significant improvements to
surface drainage.
Our reocmmendation for including these areas into use would include
excavation of the high organic content surface layers within the depressions and
stock -piling for futum use as a soil cover arnenckne t

Secondly, a uniform coarse to medium sand should be placed within
these areas to the extent that surface drainage can be achieved.
We have indicated on the site map the approximate location of an
existing surface drain which could be improved and incorporated into this site
preparation. The final site prep. activity would include evenly applying the
sandy, organic surface material, which was stockpiled, to the surface of this area
and blended with the sandy fill. Care would need to be taken to insure both a
uniform fill material and consistence was used and the incorporation of surface
drainage conveyances.
Soils 1 and 2 typically have a surface layer" inches thick that is
loamy sand with granular stnacture. The subsoil was found to have a loamy
sand to sand texture to greater than 80 inches deep. The subsoil structure was
granular and single grained.
The estimated soil wetness or water -table for Soil 1 was typically greater
than 36 inches to deeper than 5 feet with a range of 24 to 36 for Soil 2. The
range for S613 was 12 to 24 with inclusions of penned conditions less than 24
inches. Soil 4, as previously mentioned, as well as the depressions would
indicate a seasonal high water4able less than one foot from the soil surface.
Soil wetness was estimated by observations of colors of chroma 2 or less that
were indicative of soil wetness.
The Bladen County Soil Sur'vey(Page 3-Appendix) shows the site mapped
as Centenary and Leon.
The majority of soils on this site are considered to have rapid
permeability based on texture. The majority of this site has soils that will allow
for rapid infiltration, treatment, and at reasonable loading, plant uptake of
nutrients supplied by the wastewater and are suitable for use with spray
irrigation either year-round or seasonal limited.

The dominant soil types found are moderately -"If to well -drained. The
main limitation for spray are the poorly drained Soil: 4 and associated
depressional areas. We have made our recommendations as to the
modifications needed to allow for utilization of these areas. Based on the
effluent quality progeoded for this project, we feel that the majority of the soils on
this site am suitable for spray irrigation. and will provide for suffident
assimilation of the wastewater prior to contact with ground and or surface waters
proper scheduling of wastewater applications.
liZr1l'�- •. �! 1 !
The assimilative capacity for the volume of wastewater is determined
through an evaluation of the movement of soil water at the site.
The factors which are critical are the soil physical properties, site
gradient. vegetation uptake and the application interval. During land treatment
all wastewater applied must infiltrate the soil surface; thus, the only padwvays by
which water may leave the site are evapotranspiration irrto the atmosphere and
percolation of water down through the soil profile or lateral movement below the
soli surface.
The first step in design of this system is the instantaneous loading rate.
This is necessary to inset .that the irista, itaneous rate of application will not
create ponding and for runoff of wastewater. The instantaneous or hourly rate of
application is dependent on the surface infiltration rate and slope of the site.
Page 4, of the Appendix. shows a table often used to estimate this rate based On
surface texture, slope and vegetation conditions. Given the consistent surface
Wxhm, structure and assurnirq a consistent surfaioe vegetative condition, we
recommend utilizing the values for Class tl of the differing slope ranges for Soil
f, 2 and S.
Soil 4, assuming unform coverage of a higher organic, finer sand surface
would be P ommended to utilize values at the lower end of Class IV. However,
we recommend using lower values in sandy soils for enhanced roof zone
contact.

Hydraulic Loading RAW
Hydraulic loading rates for soils are essentially the excess water values
obtained from a water balance_ In considering the preparation of a water
balance for this site, rainfall, drainage and evapotranspiration should be
estimated for the site.
The rainfall data can be obtained from many sources and the estimated
evapotranspiration from vegetation given optimum stand and adequate moisture
are given for Wilmington, NC in The Water Resounm Research Institute Report
118 by Carlisle and Phillips.
As previously mentioned this report will not provide a water balance for
the project but has given the site and soils observed and an instantaneous
loading rate recommended_ The monthly average loading is the critical value
needed in order to establish design and final permitting consideration. The
water -balance once calculated, will provide that rate using the final variable- the
monthly drainage rate.
The objective of establishing an optimum drainage rate is to maintain
good soil physical and chemical characteristics and to promote vigorous plant
growth and assimilation of the waste constituents, while at the same time
applying an optimum amount of wastewater. Thus, the optimum drainage rate
must be established so that the water stays within the plant root zone long
enough for the roots and or soil to assimilate the waste but not so long as to
inhibit plant activity.
In order to determine a soils water characteristic one can field measure
Hum properties, which is typically not practical. or utilize published data such
as data published by the Water Resources Research Institute and written by J.
Fulton Lutz( Movement and storage of Water in North Carolina Soils; April 1970)
or a published Soil Survey.
For the purposes of this report, we used published data from Soil Surveys
listing data for the soils mapped on the site or for similar soil series.

The monthly drainage rate is determined from a combination of
drainage potential at a given soil moisture tension, thickness of the surface
layer, time allowed for soil re -aeration following a recharge event, and duration
of recharge event. The amount of ureter lost from saturation to field capacity
depends on the texture of the topsoil and subsoil_ As water begins to drain down
through he soil profile following rainfall or irrigation, the soil above begins to re -
aerate. All of these factors must be considered to effectively estimate the
drainage rate expected.
Generally irrigation is accomplished in 1 to 2 hours, drainage of the soil in
2 to 4 days and re -aeration of coarse textured soils in 2 to 4 days.
Based on the sand and loamy sand soils, structure and consistence, we
feel that a 3.5 day cycle is appropriate for Soils 1 and 2.
Based on the soil properties observed on this site and using data for the
Centenary Series a drainage rate for Soil 1 and 2 can be determined. The
difference between the total porosity and the water lost at 50 cm soil tension is
the field capacity_ This amount of water could be applied and stored in the
surface one foot or equal to 5.22 inches. This is the amount of water, if applied
lower than the infiltration rate, that could be stored without runoff. However, the
volume of interest is the amount that could be applied in order to supply a plant
available volume to maximize plant uptake and renovation of the wastewater.
This is even more critical in moderate to rapidly permeable soils. The available
water in the surface 1 foot of this soil series is 12.2%rinch.
Multiplying these values yields a volume of 1.55 inch. To complete the
estimated monthly value this value of 1.55(in) is multiplied by a ratio of a 30 day
month and a 3.5 day cycle to yield a value of monthly drainage rate of 12.90(in).
Although this does not give the average monthly application rate it is the final
value needed to calcukAe the water balance. Based on rainfall data for
Elizabethtown, NC, Bladen County, from the Office of the State Climatologist, of
46.84 inches of annual precipitation and evaporation data previously mentioned
for Wilmington, NC of 36.25 inches, I would expect the site could handle a
loading far in excess of allowable loading. Therefore, I would recommend
loading not to exceed 1.5 inches per week

Estimation of the time for rearaetion of soils such as those for Soils 3 and
4 is extremely difficult. Utilizing a alternative approach to estimate the drainage
rate is often needed in these soil types. The approach we used was published
conductivity data for the Leon and Murville Soil Series. The most limiting layer's
hydraulic conductivity was used. Taking 4% of that rate is recognized as a
suitable means of estimating the long4erm rate. Conservative estimates of
saturated hydraulic conductivity of the spodic subsoirs is appra Kimately 0.10
inch per hour.
The product of this value and 4% equals .004 incheslhr or 2.88 inches per
month. Rainfall and transpiration values previously mentioned would result in a
net annual deficit of 35 inches per year or approximately 3 inches per month or
0.70 inches per week. Using this monthly rate may reveal periods of the year
whwe irrigation would not be allowed. However, we would recommend initially
applying a rate of 0.50 inches per week with permit allowances for increases of
this rate as system history is obtained. Also. applications during
the growing season when evaporation is at it's peak. will allow for increased
loading in the range of 0.70 to 1.0 inch per w+sek or more.
Soil type 4 would utilize similar values, but with a tecOmmertded growing
season application limit and with modifications as mentioned earlier in the
report Monthly rainfall and transpiration data, mentioned earlier, and for the
mwWs of May through October, and assuming the same drairtiage rate as for
Soil 1 would net 15 to 20 inches of applications for the period. Over this 24
week period we would expect that these soils could be utilized at applications of
0.50 to 0.60 inches per week Again, seasonal variability mid system
performance history data could allow for these rates to be increased. We would
recommend this allowance being provided for in the permit.
The hydraulic considerations for a spray irrigation system is only one part
of the systems design. The waste constituents will also require analysis to
determine it hydraulics or nutrients will limit the area needed to handle the
projected volume of wastewater proposed to be generated.

However, it is our professional opinion that the soils on this site should
allow for effective infiltration, plant uptake and drainage at the rates we have
given and with the additional recommendations concerning site modifications.
Actual wastewater loading, it determined to be hydraulically limited, can
be adjusted by the operator using the monthly balance and by applying more
effluent during drought periods as well as less during stress periods.
Irrigation scheduling should be done to optimize the current conditions at
the time irrigation is needed while providing for optimum plant growth. The site
should be maintained in order to provide for madmum runoff of high intensity
rainfall events and to maintain a suitable vegetative cover.
Other measures that should be considered would be annual wastewater
analysis, figw measurements, site rainfall data and soil samples of the surface
horizon to determine if additional inputs of nutrients are needed to maintain a
sufficient level of nutrients for the Bermuda crop or other crop as proposed.
Given the information we have been provided concerning this project, as
of this date, -and our site and soils evaluation, GECI is submitting this report for
your use wd.W review by the , nate review personnel.

1.1 Data on fivestock manure production and characteristics are
presented to assist in the planning, design and operation of manure
collection, storage, pretreatment and utfliution systems for livestock
enterprises.
1.2 These data are combined from a wide base of published and
unpublished information on livestock manure production and
characterization. Users of this information should lecogaize that the
mean values for each parameter tee determined by an adthmetie
average consisting of one data point per Lefesence source per year. The
values represent flesh (as voided) feces and urine. Actual values vary
due to differences in animal dlet, age, usage, productivity and
management. Whenever site specific data are available or actual
sample analyses can be performed, such information should be
considered in lieu of the mean values presented here.

DEPARTMENT OF RESOURCES 134 NORTH JOHN STREET
AGRICULTURE CONSERVATION GOLDSBORO, NC 27530
SERVICE 919 - 734-0961
SUBJECT: ENG-Rainfall and Evaporation DATE: August 16, 1996
Tables, Area 3
TO: All NRCS Employees and District FILE CODE: 210
Employees, Area 3
Division Engineers and Technicians
Attached are rainfall and evaporation tables that are to be
used effective September 1, 1996 in the design and
evaluation of components of waste management systems. These
tables were developed by Doug Jones and concurred in by
Harry Gibson. Site specific weather station data may be
used in lieu of these tables when supported by weather
record documents.
The rainfall data in these tables came from climate and
weather documents and publications on variations in monthly
rainfall. The evaporation data came from National Weather
Service Publications 33 and 34.
For each county, the top line shows rainfall amount, the
middle line shows amount of evaporation, and the bottom line
shows excess rainfall amounts by month. For your
convenience, the columns on the right show the highest
excess rainfall amounts for various storage period
intervals.
You should be aware that a nutrient and liquid budget may be
needed to be sure adequate storage is available. This is
especially true for short interval storage periods such as
120 days or less.

This letter pertains to the permit application for a Bion installation at our
Frenches Creek finishing facility.
Should the technology provided by Bion Technologies fail to adequately treat
the wastewater we would direct the waste stream to the existing lagoons for treatment
and storage. We will keep the conveyance piping infrastructure in place even after the
waste stream is diverted to the new technology.
If the Bion Technology were to fail, to comply with a Waste Utilization Plan
(WUP), we would either acquire or lease the required acreage for application of lagoon
effluent or reduce the number of hogs at the facility to comply with the WUP.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 9-3
Bladen County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI, IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRY3, SLUR I, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
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.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

On June 3, 1997, staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality
inspected the French's Creek Sow swine facility. It was observed that the facility required the
establishment of bermuda grass on all of the application fields prior to issuance of a certified
waste management plan (CAWMP). At the time of the compliance inspection there was no
bermuda grass on site an no active crops were planted for waste application. The rye overseed
had been removed and the application fields were being prepared for sprigging. Two routines had
received waste application that were not in the CAWMP and should be included in the plan if
future applications of these areas is proposed..
Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving this facility of the responsibility and liability
of any violations that have or may result from these deficiencies.
