Murphy -Brown, LLC Farm #28 (BOC) PO Box 1139 Wallace, NC 28466 AU6 13 c RrC#nnl,' Michael F. Easley, Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources August 11, 2008 Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change Dear Permittee: Coleen H. Sullins Director Division of Water Quality In accordance with Condition Ill. 19 of State General Permit AWG 100000, your facility is required to maintain compliance regarding sludge accumulation in your animal waste treatment lagoon(s). As you know, the previous compliance limit was to have a minimum of four (4) feet of treatment depth between the designed stop pump and the average elevation of the top of the sludge blanket. This requirement was based on NRCS Standard No. 359, which was recently modified. As of July 2008, Standard No. 359 does not use the 4 -foot requirement. Sludge compliance is now to be based on the sludge volume as a percentage of the total treatment volume. The revised Standard states that sludge accumulation in the permanent treatment zone must be less than 50% of the planned treatment volume. Also, there must be a minimum of 2.5 feet of liquid above the sludge at the pump intake location. If either of these conditions is not met then sludge must be removed or managed in accordance with an approved Plan of Action for Lagoon Sludge Reduction (POA). A new sludge survey worksheet has been developed to calculate sludge and treatment volumes to determine compliance. Our records indicate that you have filed a Sludge POA for one or more of the lagoons at your facility. Based on the changes to the sludge requirements in Standard No. 359, your lagoon(s) may already be in compliance without any sludge removal. Using your lagoon design (or as - built information) and current sludge survey measurements, complete the NEW sludge survey worksheet. if you have any difficulty in locating or understanding your lagoon design information, please contact your technical specialist or county Soil & Water office. ow KorthCarolina �Natura!!y Aquifer Protection Section 1636 Mail service Center Raleigh.

This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) for the Farm #28 (BOC), located in Bladen County, with an animal capacity of no greater than the following swine annual averages: Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 0 Boar/Stud: 0 Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 4000 Gilts: 0 Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0 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 and replaces the NPDES COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension in Condition M.19 does not apply. 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. 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.

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 MRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility. Per 15A NCAC 02T .0111(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. Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.

Stevens Wachovia Building Suite 714 Fayetteville, NC 28341-5043 Dear Mr. Stevens, RECEIVED APR 0 2 19471 F' c'TIEVILE RcG. O;rjCF This letter is in response to the Notice of Violation received for Farm 28 on March 12. Due to the high level of the lagoon, irrigation of this land was necessary in less than ideal situations, which led to the runoff observed on February 25. A large portion of the land included in the waste management plan was required to be cleared and was delayed due to the extremely wet weather last summer and fall. Management of this farm has been difficult due to the slope and the heavy clay soils which was made worse by the high lagoon. Every precaution was taken during the winter to prevent runoff and these were discussed with DWQ inspectors. Since the DWQ visit of February 25, additional measures have been taken to alleviate the level of the lagoon and the irrigation frequency on the present fields. We utilized a soil injector to apply waste to the adjacent landowner's (Timmy Blanks- owner, Harold Wright -operator) fields designated for corn production. Documentation has been filed for the temporary use of these fields and we have the option for future use if necessary. In addition to the injection procedure on adjacent land, irrigation of the present oat crop has continued. The potential for runoff has significantly decreased due to the increased crop stand and the drying of the soil in the Iasi few weeks. These efforts have been successful in bringing the lagoon to a much more manageable level. The fields in front of the farm previously seeded in oats are being prepared for coastal sprigging which should take place in the next couple of weeks and will provide additional irrigation opportunity. The soils are exceptional for crop production and will produce a sufficient stand to minimize runoff on extreme slopes. We realize there are areas that will always need special attention during irrigation applications and have discussed these with the employees responsible. This farm has been a very high priority in our department throughout the winter and will continue to be due to the slopes and the adjacent branch. We feel that the current waste management plan when fully implemented will satisfy both the hydraulic and nutrient loading needed for this farm. We are, however, continuing to evaluate this and will obtain the option to incorporate more land into the plan if necessary. BROWN'S OF CAROLINA. INC. 303 EAST COLLEGE STREET • P.O.9OX487 • WARSAW.

The inspection revealed that the lagoon serving this operation only had approximately 12 inches of freeboard rather than the necessary 19 inches of freeboard and storage. However, it has been noted by this office that the recent storm events have contributed a great deal to the high freeboard levels in your lagoon and prevented you from land applying the excess waste water at appropriate times. Tberefore, it is all the more important far you to lower your lagoon level as soon as possible in order to obtain the nary storage volume needed during the winter months. While h is essential to lower the lagoon level, it must be done in such a manner that does not allow a discharge of waste to the waters of the State. Failure to comply with these conditions can result in civil and/or criminal penalties or the facility may be required to apply for an individual nondischarge permit- Please ermit Please notify this office within thirty days of receipt of this notice at the address below and list what actions have been taken to lower the lagoon level. Please be advised that this letter does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking enforcement actions for past or future violations. wachovla BuEldhg.

Box 487 Warsaw, NC 28398 SUBJECT: Operation Review Corrective Action Recommendation Brown's of Carolina Farm #28 Facility No. 09-155 Bladen County Dear Mr. Vinson, On June 11, 1997, an Operation Review was conducted of BOC Farm #28. This Review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 OD, is one of two visits scheduled for all registered livestock operations during the 1997 calendar year. The Division of Water Quality will conduct a second site inspection. During the Review, it was determined that waste was not being discharged to the waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systems were operated under the responsible charge of a certified operator. However, the following management deficiencies were discovered and noted for corrective action: 1. Lagoon has only 6" of freeboard with only 2 of 9 fields that have a crop which can be irrigated. 2. Talk with Kathy Dugan at Bladen Extension about weed control. Wild mustard is very prevalent in the coastal fields. 3. Two (2) fields have coastal established. The other seven (7) have oats planted to be cut and sprigged next week. Only 4 months of coastal growing season left. These management deficiencies need to be addressed and corrected. You are encouraged to contact your certified technical specialist if additional assistance is needed. The following reviews and inspections will re-examined these deficiencies to determine if corrective actions were implemented.

Your Nitrogen loading rates for coastal bermuda are all between 300-325 lbs/ac. This rate will be too heavy with only 4 months of application time left (July -October). After talking with faculty at North Carolina State University (Dr. Hodges, Soil Science and Dr. Bums, Crop Science), Bladen County NRCS ( Sam Warren ), and the Division of Water Quality, you have two options: 1. Sprig the coastal now and apply 50% of the Nitrogen allowed because only 4 6f the usual 8 months are left in the growing season ( For Exum soil, this would be 183 lbs N/ac). -or- 2. Revise your Waste Plan for another crop that would take up the most nitrogen. The only crop you could plant at this stage to take up the' most nitrogen would probably be soybeans followed by small grain overseed - to be cut in March. ( For Exum soil, this would be 200 lbs N/ac plus 50 lbs N/ac on small grain. Adjusting this for soybean residual, you would have a total of 230 lbs N/ac you could apply). Cutting the small grain in March would allow you to sprig the coastal then and use the full nitrogen loading rates. I recommend that you choose option 2 for several reasons. First, this farm received an NOV in March 1997 for discharging to water of the state and has been recommended for enforcement action. You do not need to risk having runoff again or a high lagoon. Second, the lagoon has only 6" of freeboard and you will need to pump to keep the lagoon from over -topping. The soybeans/small grain will allow you the higher application rate. Finally, the permeability of Exum soil is slow. You will not be able to apply the full amount of nitrogen to the coastal in 4 months that should have been applied in 8 months without having ponding and runoff. However, in both cases it may be necessary to pump the lagoon down and use it for precharging the new lagoon located on BOC Farm #93. Please respond in writing with your decision regarding this matter by July 11, 1997. In order for your facility to remain in compliance with environmental regulations, animal waste cannot be discharged into the waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systemsunLst be properly maintained and operated under the responsible charge of a certified operator. Please remember that if you do not have a certified animal waste management plan, you are required to do so by the end of this year. The plan must be certified by either a designated technical specialist or a professional engineer. For additional assistance with the plan, please contact your local Soil and Water Conservation District Office or local Cooperative Extension Service Office. The Division of Soil and Water Conservation appreciates your cooperation with this Operation Review. Please do not hesitate to call me at 910-488-1541 ext. 224 if you have any questions, concerns or need additional information. Sincerely, Audrey D.

The pump was immediately shut down and cleanup started. We cannot be sure as to the amount discharged, but believe it to be small since everything was stopped immediately. However the ditch was standing with about one foot of fresh water in it from previous rains, making the cleanup much larger than it would have been.

I waited by the phone for 3 hrs. and upon returning to the office that afternoon, had a message on my voice mail from Ken Averette_ It was then 6:30, he had tried to reach me that morning on my mobile but was unsuccessful. On Thursday morning January 14, 1999, I returned a call to Ken, and set up to meet him at 11:30 on the site. He arrived, looked at the site, what had malfunctioned, and what we were doing to clean up. He indicated he was satisfied with what was happening and would put a note on your desk to that affect. Jeffery, I'm sure you are familiar with the site. Entering the farm the ditch on the south side of CSX and the east side of the crossing was contaminated. A pump was set up at the crossing and hooked into the irrigation line to pump the water back to the lagoon. After pumping down the bulk of the water a smaller pump was used to pump out the pot holes. Ager pumping up all we could the area was flushed with approximately 5000 gallons of fresh water and this was also reclaimed and sent to the lagoon.

It was exactly like Gen Davis said. The connection to an air relief on an irrigation main broke, spraying waste into the railroad ditch and onto the ground around the pipe. This break was about a 100 yds, south of the dirt road going into the farm. They had blocked the culvert under the road and contained this material. Most of it was pumped back to the lagoon when a transfer pump broke. They weren't finished when I left, but they contended that it would all be up today. There was probably 1000 gallons or less left in the ditch. Told them that some of your guys would probably see them tomorrow. Nothing made it to real surface waters. I looked downstream at the road x-ing and it was clean. r� 1 BROWN"s OF CAROLINA January 18, 1999 Jeffery Brown NCDEHNR - Fayetteville Region 225 Green Street Suite 714 Fayetteville, NC 28301 Dear Mr. Brown: Glen Davis Brown's of Carolina, Inc.

Rawls NCDENR - DWQ 225 Green Street Suite 714 Fayetteville, NC 28301 Dear Mr. Rawls: This letter is in response to the "Notice of Recommendation for Enforcement" received by Mr. Greg Brown dated February 23, 1999. Brown's of Carolina, as stated in earlier conversations, sincerely regrets the discharge that took place on BOC 28 on February 12, 1999. The discharge was a result of the operator not using his best judgement as to the application rate during this period. The employee's that were responsible have been dealt with in this case for their lack of judgement. Brown's of Carolina has always tried to instill in all of our employee's that we cannot and will not tolerate any discharges. This discharge was not intentional but was due to a lack of caution. In response to the action items that you requested., we have developed strategies to address each of them. As the weather permits we are currently continuing our efforts to lower the lagoon level to the desired elevation. Additional people are being used to be there and monitor all activities. Glenn Davis, our Farming Manager is personally devoting the necessary time to supervise these efforts. We have relocated all of the possible needed equipment to help in the effort. In examining why the lagoon level was high, I can only give two reasons. First, January did present us with rainfall and our operators thought they were doing the right thing in delaying as long as possible any spraying. What hurt our efforts the most was that during this period the production facility was using an excess amount of fresh water. The water use is being closely monitored to help alleviate this part of the problem. All deficiencies will be corrected on the erosion issues as the weather and seeding dates allow. I think our efforts to clean the discharge shows our commitment in solving these and any other potential problems that may arise. I have offered to have DWQ review the clean up and meet with your staff at anytime. BROWN'S OF CAROLINA. INC. 785 HVJY 24 FAST • P O. SOX 487 . WARSAW.

I would recommend that you review this document to validate our willingness. This document was signed by the division and Greg Brown. I would hope that our cooperation would help convince you that an enforcement action is not necessary. Brown's of Carolina accepts the responsibility for what happened and will take the necessary actions to make sure this does not occur again. Thank you Mr. Rawls for this chance to make our concerns and views known and hope that it makes a difference in your decision.

The discharge occurred because the operator in charge was using too high of an application rate. While he did not exceed the rate for this soil type, it was too high for the conditions. This should have been a management decision made by him at the time or he should have conferred with me if he was not sure. Also, he should have been monitoring the application more closely. These are things that we have stressed to our employees. We regret the incident and will do whatever it takes to make sure that it does not happen again. After your visit on Friday afternoon, we took every step possible to reclaim the effluent and clean up as much as possible. I feel we were successful in getting all of the effluent out of the ditches but because of the light rain on Friday some may have gotten past the point of recovery. We have made some decisions that will help eliminate this from happening again in the future. Brown's of Carolina is committed to operating our farms in the best way possible. I am available at any time to review this farm and our approach to the operation of this farm whenever it is convenient to you. Again we regret that this happened and that our employees did not follow the best management practices for applying wastewater. If I can be of any further assistance or you need any additional information I can be reached at the office: 910-296-1800 Mobile: 910-296-4463 or my home: 910-658-4212. Thank you for your help and as always your concerns. ';evelopment cerely, yVianager Brown's of Carolina JVlep CC: Greg Brown BROWN'S OF CAROLINA, INC. 785 HWY 24 EAST • P.O. BOX 487 • WARSAW, N.C. 28398 • PHONE (910) 296-1800 March 5, 1999 MrTaul E. Rawls NCDENR - DWQ 225 Green Street Suite 714 Fayetteville, NC 28301 Dear Mr. Rawls: R46.rXI V ,: A,q 0 8 1999 FAYE TEV1 REG. OTFI This letter is in response to the "Notice of Recommendation for Enforcement" received by Mr. Greg Brown dated February 23, 1999. Brown's of Carolina, as stated in earlier conversations, sincerely regrets the discharge that took place on BOC 28 on February 12, 1999. The discharge was a result of the operator not using his best judgement as to the application rate during this period. The employee's that were responsible have been dealt with in this case for their lack of judgement. Brown's of Carolina has always tried to instill in all of our employee's that we cannot and will not tolerate any discharges- This discharge was not intentional but was due to a lack of caution. In response to the action items that you requested, we have developed strategies to address each of them. As the weather permits we are currently continuing our efforts to lower the lagoon level to the desired elevation. Additional people are being used to be there and monitor all activities. Glenn Davis, our Farming Manager is personally devoting the necessary time to supervise these efforts. We have relocated all of the possible needed equipment to help in the effort. In examining why the lagoon level was high, I can only give two reasons. First, January did present us with rainfall and our operators thought they were doing the right thing in delaying as long as possible any spraying. What hurt our efforts the most was that during this period the production facility was using an excess amount of fresh water. The water use is being closely monitored to help alleviate this part of the problem. All deficiencies will be corrected on the erosion issues as the weather and seeding dates allow. I think our efforts to clean the discharge shows our commitment in solving these and any other potential problems that may arise. I have offered to have DWQ review the clean up and meet with your staff at anytime. BROWN'S OF CAROLINA, INC. 785 HWY 24 EAST • P.D. BOX 487 • WARSAW, N.C. 28398 • PHONE (910) 296-1800 To go even further, our willingness to work with DWQ on these issues and others is illustrated by our agreement with the division to do ground water monitoring on this farm. I would recommend that you review this document to validate our willingness. This document was signed by the division and Greg Brown. I would hope that our cooperation would help convince you that an enforcement action is not necessary. Brown's of Carolina accepts the responsibility for what happened and will take the necessary actions to make sure this does not occur again. Thank you Mr. Rawls for this chance to make our concerns and views known and hope that it makes a difference in your decision. Sincerely, JLyv- Development Manager Brown's of Carolina, Inc.

OFFICE Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping Animal Waste Management System Facility Number 9-155 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. IRR 1, IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRYS, SLUR 1, 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.

OFFICE Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Farm #28 (BOC) Facility Number 9-155 Bladen County A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated_ Only the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Jeffery Brown on 2/9/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: ❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing John Hasty the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to John Hasty, at 225 Green Street, Suite 714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact John Hasty at (910) 486-1541. If within 90 days you are unable to provide John Hasty with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, Forth Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2.- Your :Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct.a Wettable.Acre.Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification mast be returned to DWC within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Pian must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

The Water Quality Section of the Fayetteville Regional Office has performed a file review of several of the BOC swine farms in this region and has confirmed that freeboard problems continue to be a issue throughout the 2000 Spring and Summer cropping window. These farms were also noted to have had freeboard problems during previous years as well. Our review identifies at a minimum farms 13, 28, 29 and 30 have had ongoing problems and at last report freeboard levels remain less than that required. This is particularly disturbing as weather patterns this year, especially during late spring and summer, have been in my opinion somewhat normal. During our discussion your staff relayed efforts to improve waste management and the desire of BOC to comply with the rules and regulations pertaining to swine farms. -continued- i�_ ll p 2 0 I 0 1617 MAIL SERVICE CENTER, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27699-1617 website: h2o.enr.state.nc.us PHONE 919-733-7015 FAX 919-733-2496 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50%n RECYCLED/10% POST -CONSUMER PAPER Mr. Simmons September 27, 2000 Page 2 of 3 During the meeting I asked that BOC furnish the Fayetteville Regional office information on or before October 4, 2000: (The following list may contain items not requested during the meeting) - For each farm noted above please explain what events have lead to freeboard level noncompliance this year and if BOC evaluated the reduction in the number of swine at each -farm -as -a means -to maintain compliance prior to becoming noncompliant. -It appears that the 30 day Plan of Action submitted 911/00 for farm #28 W411 not be met: Please explain why. If other BOC farms have not met or are projected at this time not to meet other Plans of Action please provide similar explanations and information by October 4, 2000. -Please provide all freeboard levels for the aforementioned farms for this year from 1/1/2000 to present. -Please provide the most up to date waste management plans for the aforementioned farms. -Please provide all records pertaining to waste application for the aforementioned farms to include waste analysis, waste application and nutrient balances for the farms noted during 2000. -For the farms noted please also provide a detailed plan to ensure compliance with each waste utilization plan for the remainder of this cropping cycle and the next cropping cycle ending in early 2001. -Please also provide any lease agreements for additional land that could potentially be used in alleviating problems at the farms noted. It is also understood that waste was or is in the process of being pumped and hauled from farm #13 to farm #14. Please be advised that "prior" to pumping and hauling of waste from one farm to another a detailed analysis should be performed to determine if the farm receiving the waste can adequately accept the waste and that the certified waste management plan has been revised accordingly. This office should be aware of such action prior to pumping and hauling and approve such action prior to commencement of the activity. Further, such measures should be considered prior to noncompliance not only as a remedy for high freeboard emergencies. This letter is to also acknowledge receipt of a FAX from Mr. Kevin Weston today (7127/00). The FAX entitled "Detailed Plan of Action" outlined actions taken or are in process to address farm #28 problems. The FAX includes the section "2. Emergency Pump and Haul", in this section Mr. Weston outlines that a pump and haul activity will be initiated to bring the freeboard level to a compliant level. In a follow-up call to Mr. Weston today (7127/00) it was discovered that details of this pump and haul operation have not yet been finalized. As noted above a detailed analysis Mr. Simmons September 27, 2000 Page 3 of 3 should be performed to determine if the farm receiving the waste can adequately accept the waste and the certified waste management plan is revised accordingly. This office should receive such evaluation and revised plan prior to the initiation of the pump and haul process. Please be advised that the receipt of this FAX does not absolve BOC from failing to meet the 30 day POA for farm #28 submitted 911/00. The FAX outlines that "Animal Flow Manipulation" will be employed to also address farm #28 problems and that "Brown's of Carolina has adopted a policy which states that "no animal will be placed on any farm with less than compliant levels of freeboard". The FAX also indicates that "no replacement breeding stock will be sent to the farm". Please provide how many head of stock have not been sent to farm #28 as a result of this policy during 2000. The FAX further states that BOC will maintain this policy until compliant freeboard levels are attained. I urge BOC to consider expanding this policy not to restock animals until BOC has determined that the entire waste utilization plan can be met throughout the current and if necessary the following crop cycle. This office views the freeboard levels at these farms critical as we are still in hurricane season. Brown's of Carolina should make every effort to lower lagoon levels to achieve compliance and to avoid preventable environmental impact. Please be advised that furnishing the requested information in no way absolves BOC of any violation past or future and the compliance history of these and other BOC farms is under review to determine what action, if any, should be initiated by this office.

OFFICE This letter is in reference to a Fax that was sent to your office earlier this week concerning the freeboard levels at BOC 428, Facility # 9-155 and BOC #29, Facility # 9-153 in Bladen County. This letter will serve as a written report of the occurrence, as is required by the General Permit for these facilities. As stated in the Fax, the freeboard level at BOC #28 is 18" and BOC #29 is 18". This is due to various factors and events that have occurred at these facilities that have allowed for limited pumping this winter. As weather and field conditions improve, pumping %All resume and the lagoon levels will be lowered. A Plan of Action for High Freeboard at Animal Facilities for each facility is enclosed. The narrative sections of the plans give details of the contributing factors. If you have any questions or need additional information concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to call me at (910) 296-1800 ext. 238.

If new fields are to be included as an option for lowering lagoon level, add these fields to the PAN balance table and recalculate the overall PAN balance. If animal waste is to be hauled to another permitted facility, provide information regarding the herd population and lagoon freeboard levels at the receiving facility. This farm is currently in a high freeboard status due to the fact that the irrigation system was recently converted from traveler pulls to solid set. When the conversion was completed, the Waste Management Plan was rewritten and a large part of the farms fields were changed from small grain grazed to small grain hay which restricted the application windows. This change will be a help in the future, but was a hinderance at the present time due to the windows. Because of the windows, this facility was limited on its choice of fields that could receive effluent and was holding as long as possible to keep from applying outside of the windows. Once the window opened at the first of February, pumping resumed however, the choice of fields has remained limited due to weather and field conditions. As the conditions become favorable, pumping will continue and the lagoon level will be lowered. PoA (30 Day) 2121100 7 - OCT -03-00 TUE 01:13 PH BROWN'S OF CAROLINA!

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN Grower(s): Farm Name: Brown's of Carolina BOC #28 County: Bladen Farm Capacity: Farrow to Wean 4000 Farrow to Feeder Farrow to Finish Wean to Feeder Feeder to Finish Storage Structure: Storage Period: Application Method: Anaerobic Lagoon X180 days Irrigation 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. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days priorto planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1 of 8 800119230123 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.

commercial fertilizer on corn into the CAWMP for the above farm. In an effort to increase stand count and vigor, Brown's of Carolina applied the equivalent of nine (9) pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) to the corn crop at planting. This application should be noted on the IRR2 record keeping forms for all corn fields on this farm, and, in so doing, be deducted from the PAN balance. The total PAN applied per field should not exceed the allowance shown in the CAW IP. A review of the CAWMP reveals that there is a substantial enough PAN deficit for this farm to allow for this application of commercial fertilizer. Pr^mn'e of f -�mU-n C k.—A, Date Date S a Date 800119230127 { _ j 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 definately interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. 4 of S 800119230128 SLUDGE APPLICATION: I t The following table describes the annual nitrogen accumulation rate per animal in the lagoon sludge Farm Specifications PAN/yr/animal Farm Total/yr 4000 Farrow to Wean 0.84 3360 Farrow to Feeder 1 Farrow to Finish 4.1 Wean to Feeder 0.072 Feeder to Finish 0.36 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 3360 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 16800 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 56 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 134.4 acres of land. Please note that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. i -) APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION: w 1 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 X180 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 atter 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. 5 of 8 B00119230129 Application Rate Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. 24A ExA Soil 0.35 Application Rate Application Amount Tract Hydrant Type Crop in/hr * inches 4737 1 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 2 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 3 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 4 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 5 ExA/Na O 0.35 1 4737 6 ExA/Na O 0.35 1 4737 7 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 8 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 9 Na O 0.4 1 4737 10 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 11 Na O 0.4 1 4737 12 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 13 Na O 0.4 1 4737 14 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 15 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 16 ExA O 0.35 1 4737 17 ExA/AyB O 0.35 1 4737 18 ExA/AyB O 0.35 1 4737 19 ExA D 0.35 1 4737 20 ExA D 0.35 1 4737 21 ExA/AyB D 0.35 1 4737 22 ExA/AyB D 0.35 1 4737 23 ExA/AyB D 0.35 1 Leased Land 11442 24A ExA O 0.35 11442 24B ExA O 0.35 11442 25A ExA O 0.35 11442 25B ExA O 0.35 11442 26 ExA O 0.35 11442 27 ExA O 0.35 11449 28 ExA D 0.35 11449 29 ExA D 0.35 11449 30 ExA D 0.35 11449 31 ExA D 0.35 6 of 8 800119230130 ' Additional Comments: This elan revised to show wetted acres on the leased land.

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 DWO regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1of11 This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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

The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 3360 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 16800 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayfand at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 56 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 134.4 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 X180 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 rales 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. 5of11 Application Rate Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 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. 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. 9 of 11 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. 10 of 11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 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 Duman 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.

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: Z. 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. Page: i 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.): 4000 animals X 3212 gailanimal/year = 12848000 gallons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (lbs): 4000 animals X 5.40 lbs/animal/year = 21600 lbs 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.

I Page: 3 The applicator is cautioned that N and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. The following legend explains the crop codes listed in the table above: Crop Code Crop A Barley B Hybrid Bermudagrass - Grazed C Hybrid Bermudagrass - Hay D Com - Grain E Corn - Silage F Cotton G Fescue- Grazed H Fescue- Hay I Oats J Rye K Small Grain - Grazed L Small Grain - Hay M Grain Sorghum N Wheat O Soybean Lbs N utilized 1 unit yield 1.6 lbs N / bushel 50 lbs N / ton 50 lbs N / ton 1.25 lbs N / bushel 12 lbs N 1 ton 0.12 lbs N / lbs lint 50 lbs N / ton 50 lbs N / ton 1.3 lbs N / bushel 2.4 lbs N / bushel 100 lbs N 1 acre 133 lbs N 1 acre 2.5 lbs N l cwt 2.4 lbs N / bushel 4.0 lbs N / bushel Page: 4 Acres shown in the preceding taole are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: 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 0.84 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the in sludge based on the application method listed earlier. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 16800.00 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 58.00 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 134.40 acres of land. PIease be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis. soil types, realistic yields, and applications. 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. The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 responsiability 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. Additional Comments: Page: 6 NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN CERTIFICATION Name of Farm: Owner/Manager Agreement: Brown's of Carolina, Farm 28 Itwe understand and will follow and implement the specifications and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste nutrient management plan for the farm named above. I/we know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treatment and/or storage system, or construction of new facilities, will require a new nutrient management plan and a new certification to be submitted to DWQ before the new animals are stocked. Ywe understand that I must own or have access to equipment, primarily irrigation equipment, to land apply the animal waste described in this nutrient management plan. This equipment must be available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge occurs from the lagoon in the event of a 25 year 24 hour storm. I also certify that the waste will be applied on the land according to this plan at the appropriate times and at rates which produce no runoff. This plan will be filed on site at the farm office and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request.

You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This 121an_should be nested in an gccesale location for all lgy.= at the fly- The following are some action items you should take. 1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below. A Lagoon overflow—possible solutions are: a- Add sod to berm to increase elevation of dam. b. Pump waste to fields at an acceptable rate. c. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately. d. Call a pumping contractor. e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon. B. Runofifrom waste application field -actions include.- a. nclude: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reasons) that caused the runoff. e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include: a. Stop recycle pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge. d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. D. Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include: a Stop recycle pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Make sure no siphon occurs. d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to Sowing leaks -possible action: a. Dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon. b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 2. Assess therextent of the spol and note any obvious damages. a. Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g.

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 a notarized 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 a notarized 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 fkcUity 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 raze of application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner.. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strips) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when'there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. b. 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 off-site 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. 9_ Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in tall 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 a 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 Iand area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at Ieast 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 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). WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells. 1 I Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and 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. 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. Lagoon beans and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is 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 preplant with no finther applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible permanent 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. Soil tests shall be made every two years, and a liquid waste analysis shall be takenAe 6p dconst i ent with waste utilization plan. Poultry litter shall be tested prior to application. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations_ c _ __:��.BR�1rN'S.

DE24 USE, ot'iY:AC�Md* NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN Grower(s): Fane Name: County: Farm Type: Farm Capacity: Storage Structure: Storage Period: Application Method: Brown's of Carolina Farm 28 Bladen Far -Wean 4000 Anaerobic Lagoon 180 days Irrigation 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. Page: 1 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy: Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 optimism 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. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.): 4000 animals X 3212 gal/animal/year = 12848000 gallons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (lbs): 4000 animals X 5.40 lbs/animal/year = 21600 lbs 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.

A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the nitrogen produced by the fans. NOTE: This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. I Page: 3 The applicator is cautioned that tj 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 pian only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want .to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of. about two inches before drilling for best results. The following legend explains the crop codes listed in the table above: Crop Code ro -121 A Barley B Hybrid Bermudagrass - Grazed C Hybrid Bermudagrass - Hay D Com - Grain E Com - Silage F Cotton G Fescue- Grazed H Fescue- Hay I Oats J Rye K Small Grain - Grazed L Small Grain - Hay M Grain Sorghum N Wheat O Soybean Lbs N utilized / unit yield 1.6 lbs N 1 bushel 50 lbs N 1 ton 50 lbs N 1 ton 1.25 lbs N 1 bushel 12 lbs N 1 ton 0.12 lbs N / lbs lint 50 lbs N 1 ton 50 lbs N I ton 1.3 lbs N / bushel 2.4 lbs N 1 bushel 100 lbs N / acre 133 lbs N / acre 2.5lbs N/cwt 2.4 lbs N / bushel 4.0 lbs N / bushel Page: 4 Acres shown in the preceding taole are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: 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 0.84 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the in sludge based on the application method listed earlier. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you. will have approximately 16800.00 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 56.00 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 134.40 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and applications. 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. The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 responsiability 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.

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 a notarized 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 a notarized agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing hinvher 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, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner.. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to Iand that is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strips) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting 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 off-site 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. 9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit 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 a crop or forages breaking dormancy. 1 i. 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 surface water. This distance maybe reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells. 13 . Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by landowner_ 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and in a manner that causes no runoff or drill from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will. be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protea the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon area should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 2I . MWily visible permanent 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. Soil tests shall be made every two years, and a liquid waste analysis shall be taken �D e�consis t with waste utilization plan_ Poultry litter shall be tested prior to application. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations.
