OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil_ conditions,flushinq operations, and
the amount of'fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set;
center pivot, quns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops..
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre —
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors durinq
start—up. Pre—charginq reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment 8)
before land application.
3. Begin pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva—
tion 97.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 95.8 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inch per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Veqetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
B. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health. and Natural Resources. Division of Environ—
mental Manaqement, has the responsibility for enforcinq this law.

Phone -------- :910-592-5771

Method of application ------ :Irrigation
Amount of waste produced per year---------------: 17660 tons/year
Amount of plant available N (PAN) produced/year-: 18468 lbs./year
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 use
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 teats 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 sate
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 not be applied to land eroding at more
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
in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under UWW
regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild 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. It
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have
Page 2
plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be
applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste L.o
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content
and the 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 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
bermudagrass), 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 to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in
the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain
gets too high and this will definitely interfere with 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 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 mowed to a height of about two
inches before drilling for beat results.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is
recommended.
Acres shown in the tables 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 field 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 provision 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 2870 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately
14350 lbs. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to
hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen
per acre, you will need 48 acres of land. If you apply the
sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 115 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 application methods.

APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intakes 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

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

comply with the following:. The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of
a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 -- Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges 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.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon.dmbankments, berms,

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your
operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should
NOT wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to
consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an
accessible location for all employees at the facility. The following
are some action items you should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may
or may not be possible. Suggested responses to problems are
listed below:
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam, any
permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a
qualified technical specialist.
b. Pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate.
c. Stop all additional flow to the lagoon -hold waste in the
house if possible.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
B. Runoff from waste application field -action include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the
waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) 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 (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D. Leakage from flush system, houses, solids separators -actions
include:
a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure no siphon effect has been created.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid
separators.
e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
7 . & N
E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage
as opposed to flowing leaks -possible action:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a
submersible pump, and pump back into 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 the lagoon bottom as soon as possible.
2. Assess the extent of the spill 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. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off of
the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of
Water Quality) regional office, at 910-486-1541, after
hours, emergency number:1-800-858-0368. Your phone call

Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. NCA226002
Farm P - 18
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Cumberland County
In accordance with your application received on September 21, 2004 we are hereby forwarding to you
this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Prestage Farms, Inc., authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES
General Permit NCA200000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from Farm P - 18, located in Cumberland County, with an animal capacity of no greater
than an annual average of 2907 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to
Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may
be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4
gilts for every 3 sows.
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 1, 2007 and shall hereby void Certificate
of Coverage Number NCA226003 dated April 9, 2003. 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 General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and
Federal general permit it contains many new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained
in the current 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 thispen-nit. The Animal Facility Annual Certification Form must be
completed and returned to the Division of Water Quality by no later than March 1 st of each year.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.

Dear Mr. Carr:
Enclosed are copies of the CPA-02 - Highly Erodible Land and Wetland
... Determination forms for Tractq11M 3963 and 5747. This is the official
determination for Farm Bill purposes for the areas marked in yellow and
red by the ASCS office.
Tracts 3962 and 3963 have hydric soils mapped on them. These wetland
areas are'not flagged -on the ground, but are marked on the soils -map
and -the ASCS aerial photo. Just before clearing, someone from my office
can accompany the bulldozer in order to direct the clearing to avoid the
wetland. Please contact my affice:wh6h you need to do this.
Tract 5747 has isolated wetland spots located on them. They have'be-M
flagged in the field. SCS will need to meet with with you'to shov�these
sites and assist in directing the clearing of the non -wetland, so that
no hydric soils are cleared.
Under provisions of the 1985 Farm Bill you have 15 days to appeal my
decision to determine that these areas are wetlands.
If I can provide you with more information, please contact my office.
Sincerely,
Ray, Jr.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
----------------------------------------------------------
Clearing:
All trees and brush shall be removed from the construction area
before any excavating or fill is started. Stumps will be removed
within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas
and all- excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceedinq-one (1)
inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1)
foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The
foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly before placement of
embankment material.
Cut—off Trench:.
---------------
A cut—off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in
the plans.
Construction:
-------------
Construction of excavated and earthfill areas shall be performed to
the neat lines and grades as planned. Deviations from this will
require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall not be placed
in standinq water and reasonable compaction of the fills shall be
performed by the construction equipment or sheeps--foot roller during
placement. The embankment of the laqoon shall be installed usinq
the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall
include ten (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage.
when areas of unsuitable material are encountered. they will need to
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and
compacted with a suitable material (ie-CL.SC.CW). Refer to the soils
investigation information in the plans -for special considerations.
Precautions should be taken durinq construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions,flushinq operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling qun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent.runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre-charginq reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment 9)
before land application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 97.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 95.8 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the rnecommended maximum application rate is.0.4
inch per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Veqetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.-
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
8: The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharqe of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcinq this law.

Your animal waste management facility has been designed for n
given storaae capacity. When the waste reaches the designed
level. it must be land aoDlied at a specified rate to nrAvRnt
pollution of surface and/or around water. The plant nutrients
in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be aoDlied. This waste utilization n1an
uses nitrooen as the limitino.nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each aDDlication cycle and annual soil tests
are encouraaed so that all Dlant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic vields of the crop to be crown.
Several factors are irtioortant in imolementi'no your waste
utilization olan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is aoDlied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always cooly waste based on the
needs of the crop to be crown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not cooly more nitrogen than the crop can Utll17A.
Soil tvoes are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be aoDlied to
land erodina at areater than 5 tons Der acre oer veer. Do not
aooly waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor oroblems. To maximize the value
cf'nutrients for crap production and to reduce the ootential
for pollution. the waste should be aoDlied to a arowina crop or
not more than 30 days Drior to olantina. Iniectina the waste
or diskina will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to aooly the animal waste is based on tyDical
nutrient content for this tvoe of facility. Acreaae
requirements may be more or less based on the -waste analvslA
resort from your waste management facility.
The desian.of vour waste management facility is based on the

Type of waste facility ----- :Anaerobic Lagoon
Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a
given storage capacity. When the waste reaches the designed.
level', it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or around water. The plant nutrients
in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on 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 and annual soil tests
are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that 'it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be aoo,lied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. 'Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution. the waste should be applied to a.growina crop or
not more than 38 days prior to planting. InJectina the waste
or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements may be more or.less based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility.
The design,of your waste manaaement facility is based on the

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

Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted)
or winter annuals follow summer annuals.
In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded
in bermudagrass), 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 definitely interfere.with the 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
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 mowed to a
height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

overseeding.

NOTE: 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 3037.8 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
r
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 5
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
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.
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 waste being stored in
your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
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 Tables 1 and 2. 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 rate prior to applying the waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:
b
Soils are heaver and wetter than a Wagram. It is of the opinion
that these soils will respond like a Goldsboro soil. Rye will
be baled in the spring to remove .the nutrients.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 6
Plans and Specifications
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day. by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within
a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility
to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is
a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEN.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when the
wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally
tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops
or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in
the MRCS Technical Reference - Environment file 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 conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
.r. .
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growirg:'craps in
such a manner that -no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered. (43)
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 on bare soil.
11. Animal.waste shall not be applied closer than 25'feet to
surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that
are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips
are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner,
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other
property and public right -of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site
by a "technical.specialist". Animal waste should not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the
application 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. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to
areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage
or discharge.
19. 1f animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and imple-
menting a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc.,,'should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent.breakdowns,.�maks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should'be.kept
on site.

Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change
Dear Permittee:
In accordance with Condition III.19 of State General Permit AWG100000, 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.

Animal Waste Management System
Cumberland County
Dear Prestage Farms Inc:
In accordance with your application received on 15-Dec-06, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Prestage Farms Inc, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
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 P-18, located in Cumberland 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: 2907 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 III.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.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.

Based on information submitted with the facility's Animal Facility Annual Certification Form,
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is requesting additional information related to the annual
average of animals for the year 2004.
The Certificate of Coverage (COC) NCA226002 of your NPDES Permit states:
"This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to;
the management of animal waste from the PX 18, located in Cumberland County, with an
animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 4500 Feeder to Finish,1248 .
Farrow to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified
Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to
Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows
may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows."
The Division received your annual certification form on March 1, 2005. On that form, you
indicated that your annual average was 1,955. Depending on swine type, this may exceed the
annual average specified in your COC of 4,500 Feeder to Finish and 1,248 Farrow to Finish. To
avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, please submit the facility's
stocking records for the year 2004 within thirty (30) days to the following address:

Phone: 910-592-5771

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 the 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 not be applied to land eroding at more 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 in runoff to the 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 crops 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 applications 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. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management 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 the 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 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 bermudagrass), forage must be removed through
grazing, hay and for 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 to reach materity,
especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will
definitely interfere with the stand of 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 mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best
results.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning
may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended.
Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters 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 field 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 2442 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately . 12209 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming
you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 41
acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 98
acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual
requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
application methods.
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
P-18
Page 4
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 irrrigate the acres shown in tables.
Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan
invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 limitations, 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 instances should the volume of the waste be 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operate
properly to apply the correct rates 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 have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the
amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste.
