OFFICE DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY May 5, 1998 CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT RE!2VESTED DeWayne Weeks 163 Ruffin Road Dunn, NC 29334 SUBJECT: Request for Information Inadequate Freeboard Weeks Farms Inc. Registration No. 43 - 19 Harnett County Dear Mr. Weeks: On April 2I, 1998, Jeffery Brown of our staff visited the subject facility and determined that there was inadequate freeboard in the lagoon serving this facility. At the time of the inspection, it was observed that the lagoon was in the emergency storage level (8"). This lack of adequate freeboard is in non-compliance with the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. This non-compliance is subject to an appropriate enforcement action by the Division of Water Quality. This action can consist of one or more of the following: a Notice of Deficiency (NOD); a Notice of Violation (NOV); a civil or criminal enforcement action; an injunction; and/or a requirement to apply for coverage under an individual non -discharge permit. The action chosen will be based on a complete evaluation of all factors that resulted in the inadequate freeboard; the actions taken to restore the needed freeboard; and the actions being proposed to prevent the problem from reoccurring.

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 John Hasty on 219/99 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 clue 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, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50%c recycled/10%a post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWO will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bang this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility.

AUS 3 0 2001 +4 Dear Mr. Sherman, Since I notified your office on August 17, 2001 that my freeboard level was at 17 inches, it has since then been lowered back to greater than 19 inches of freeboard. I regret that it got to this level. On May 7, 2001 my freeboard was at 33 inches. Since that date we have had 23 inches of rain. I have pumped all summer un- til my pump broke on July 26, 2001. I was down for two weeks until my new pump was delivered and set up on August 6, 2001. I am now using a new pump and a refurbished traveling reel. I will continue to pump to gain as much freeboard as I can. I have lots of acreage left to pump on, so land availability should not be a problem. Thank you for your cooperation. S' cerel iN R Weeks aoo b o RFCE11;'ED 11-27-06 NOV 29 M Dear Sirs, OW-FAMTEMLLEREGIONAL ()MGE On November 22, 2006, I contacted Art Barnhardt at the Fayetteville Regional Office to report that the lagoon at Weeks Farms Inc., facility number 43-19, was out of compliance. On November 21, the freeboard was at 21 inches. On November 22 we had received over 3 inches of rain when I called Mr. Barnhardt and it was still raining. We received a total of 4.70 inches from the storm. Two weeks earlier, the freeboard was at 30 inches. Between November 6 and November 21, we had a total of 5.00 inches of rain. We have tried to identify the source of the extra water in the lagoon. We have found two places where rainwater was rushing into hog houses and into the pit. We will correct these problems by 4iverting the rainwater away from these houses. I still have"plenty of spray fields to apply this extra water to. Please contact me at 919-820-1121 if you have any questions. Thank you.

The plant nutrients inithe animal waste should'be used to reduce the amount of commercial feirtilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to b�e applied. This waste utilization plan uses nit 'ogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before eachi1applica ion cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the 1crop tolbe grown. Several factors are important in implementinO your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer val e of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmenta ly safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the neleds 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 aj they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, ratio exchange.capacities, and available water holding ca,acitie 3. Normally waste shall be ap lied t land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste nay be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providi g that adequate filter strips are established. I 4. Do not apply waste on saturated s ils, when it is raining, or when the surface is fro4en. E ther of these conditions may result in runoff to surface w ters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 t ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATIO1 PLAN 5. Wind conditions should also be con idered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of t e nutri nts for crop production and to reduce the potential for po lution, the waste should be applied to a growing cropor ap�lied not more than 30 days prior to planting a c,p or fprages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or dis ing wild conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application ethod shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, ou need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different +applica ion methods are not the same.

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 1II.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.

I entered it in BIMS as Incident # 201000209 and faxed him a blank POA. I talked about some of the standard followup for him and us but forgot to mention that someone might be out to check the lagoon level. This is the Harnett farm (west of the swamp), not the same one that had a spill last January (and also some time in the past). This farm used to be on my list- I'm not sure who is handling it now.

Washdown of stock trailers owned by and used to transport animals to and from the facility only, will be permissible as long as the system has been evaluated and approved to accommodate the additional volume. Only those cleaning agents and soaps that are EPA approved according to their label, will not barm the cover crop, and will not contravene the groundwater standards listed in 15A NCAC 2L may be utilized in facilities covered by this General Permit. Instruction labels are to be followed when using cleaning agents and soaps. 10. Disposal of dead animals resulting from normal mortality rates associated with the facility shall be done in accordance with the facility's CAWMP and the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) Veterinary Division's Statutes and regulations. Disposal of dead animals whose numbers exceed normal mortality rates associated with the facility shall also be done in accordance with the facility's CAWMP and NCDA&CS Veterinary Division's Statutes and regulations provided that: 1) burial of such animals shall be done in consultation with the State Veterinarian of the NCDA&CS Veterinary Division's Statutes and in compliance with NCDA&CS regulations; 2) all such burial sites must be mapped, and the dates and numbers of the animals buried by species and type must be recorded; and 3) the map is submitted to the appropriate Regional Office Aquifer Protection Section within fifteen (15) calendar days of burial. In the event of a state of emergency declared by the Governor, disposal of dead animals shall be done in accordance with requirements and guidelines dictated by the State Veterinarian according G.S. §106-339A. The Division may require groundwater monitoring when there is massive burial of animals. All burial sites of such animals must be mapped, and the dates and numbers of the animals buried by species and type must be recorded. 11. Unless accounted for in temporary storage volume, all uncontaminated runoff from the surrounding property and buildings shall be diverted away from the waste lagoons/storage ponds to prevent any unnecessary addition to the liquid volume in the structures. 12. A protective vegetative cover shall be established and maintained on all earthen lagoon/storage 1 et pond embankments (outside toe of embankment to maximum pumping elevation), berms, pipe runs, and diversions to surface waters or wetlands. Trees, shrubs, and other woody vegetation „pL shall not be allowed to grow on the lagoon/storage pond embankments. All trees shall be removed in accordance with good engineering practices. Lagoon/storage pond areas shall be accessible, and vegetation shall be kept mowed. 13. At the time of sludge removal from a lagoon/storage pond, the sludge must be managed in accordance with the CAWMP. When removal of sludge from the lagoon is necessary, provisions must be taken to prevent damage to the lagoon dikes and liner. 14. Lagoons/storage ponds shall be kept free of foreign debris including, but not limited to, tires, bottles, light bulbs, gloves, syringes or any other solid waste. 15. The facility must have at least one of the following items at all times: (a) adequate animal waste application and handling equipment, (b) a lease, or other written agreement, for the use of the necessary equipment, or (c) a contract with a third party applicator capable of providing adequate waste application. February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 23. Land application activities shall cease on any application site that exceeds a Mehlich 3 Soil Test Index for Copper of greater than 3,000 (108 pounds per acre) or Zinc of greater than 3,000 (213 pounds per acre). 24. All waste application equipment must be tested and calibrated once in the first two years after issuance of the COC and then at least once every two years thereafter. The results must be documented on forms provided by, or approved by, the Division. 25. Any major structural repairs to lagoons/storage poads must have written documentation from a tec cal specialist certifying proper design and installation. However, if a piece of equipment is being replaced with a piece of equipment of the identical specifications, no technical specialist approval is necessary [i.e. piping, reels, valves, pumps (if the gallons per minute (gpm) capacity is not being increased or decreased), etc.] unless the replacement involves disturbing the lagoon/storage pond embankment or liner_ 26. Crops for which animal waste is land applied must be removed from the land application site and properly managed and utilized unless other management practices are approved in the CAWMP. 27. In accordance with NRCS North Carolina Conservation Practice Standard No. 359 "Waste Treatment Lagoon", an operator may temporarily lower lagoon levels to provide irrigation water during drought periods and to provide additional temporary storage for excessive rainfall during the hurricane season and in preparation for the following winter months. All conditions of NRCS NC Standard No. 359 must be satisfied prior to lowering lagoon Ievels below designed stop pump levels. M. MONITORING AND REPORTING REOUIRF.MF.NTS An inspection of the waste collection, treatment, and storage structures, and runoff control measures shall be conducted and documented at a frequency to insure proper operation but at least monthly and after all storm events of greater than one (1) inch in 24 hours_ For example, lagoons/storage ponds, and other structures should be inspected for evidence of erosion, leakage, damage by animals or discharge. Inspection shall also include visual observation of subsurface drain outlets, ditches, and drainage ways for any discharge of waste. 2.

It was observed that the facility's waste lagoon was in the emergency storage level. The level of the lagoon was approximately eight inches. This is less than the 12" of freeboard plus the seven inches for the 25 year 24 hour storm event. The level of the lagoon needs to be lowered to the required freeboard on a suitable waste application field as soon as weather permits. I would also like to ask you to contact me on a weekly basis until the lagoon is lowered to the required freeboard. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact me at (914) 486-1541, Sincerely, j;f43 Arr4� Jeffery Brown Environmental Engineer 225 GREEN STREET, SUITE 714, FAYETTEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA 28301-5043 PHONE 910-486-1541 FAX 910-466-0707 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50% RECYCLED/10% POST -CONSUMER PAPER UNITED STATES NATURAL RESOURCES POST OFFICE BOX 267 DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION LILLINGTON, N.C. 27546 AGRICULTURE SERVICE - - 919-893;7384 - June 21, 1995 JUN 22 M5 'Mr. Jerry Hobbs Sampson County Manager ENV. MUSEMM 432 Rowan Street FAYETWLU ice. OFAM Clinton, N.C., 28328 Dear Mr. Hobbs, This letter is notifying you of a proposed 9,000 topping hog facility that Weeks Farms Inc. of Dunn, N.C. is planning to put on their farm in Sampson County. The tract is located on S.R. 1005 3 1/2 miles South of U.S. 421 near Mingo Swamp and the Harnett County line. According to FEMA Flood Hazard Maps the field where they want to install the topping houses are in the 100 year Flood Plain. Mr. Weeks stated he had never seen the water flood the field. He wrote the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers a letter to request the elevation of the 100 year flood stage. They told him it was approximately 10' above normal flow. Based on this information and using a U.S. Geological Survey Bench Mark,the NRCS surveyed to the creek and determined the 100 year flood plain elevation to be 132 ft. This contour went about 2/3 up in the 26 acre field. Mr. Weeks could install the lagoon above the 132' elevation but not the buildings. We did a soils investigation of the site and found adequate clay material to line the lagoon_ The closest house to the proposed site belongs to Ryan Weeks, one of the owners. It is approximately 1700 ft. from the proposed site. Bobby Willis with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers stated in a phone conversation that a 404 permit was not needed because the field was prior converted wetland and if the facility was not in the floodway he could see no problem. We explained to Mr. Willis that the flood back water would slowly come into the field and therefore would not present a flooding hazard. I contacted the N.C. Division of Environmental Managment, (D.E.M.) and talked to Ken Averette. He stated that the State would have no problem with it as long as the buildings and dike around the lagoon would be above '132' flood elevation. He also stated that no spray field should be in the flood plain. There are no feasible alternative sites on the tract. This site was desired by the Weeks because the prevailing wind flows out of the South and Southwest. This will take any odor into and up Mingo Swamp. Anywhere else on the tract would be closer to homes. The other remaining alternative is to abandon the site completely. The NRCS will design the lagoon to meet the State of N.C. 0200 regulations. We plan to locate the facility on the flooding fringe. The top of the lagoon embankment and building pads will be designed to be above the 100 year flood elevation of 132.0. w Please send any comments or questions concerning the proposed hog operation to: Parks V.

DIVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT November 29, 1983 MEMORANDUM TO File THROUGH: M. J. Noland, Acting Regional Supervisor Fayetteville Regional Office FROM : Woodrow Grady Dobson, Environmental Engineer Fayetteville Regional Office SUBJECT: Complaint Investigation Hog Waste Stabilization Lagoon Weeks Farms, Inc. Dunn, North Carolina Harnett County On October 4, 1983, Mr. Grady Dobson, Environmental Engineer and Rickey Revels, Stream Monitor, Fayetteville Regional Office investigated a hog waste stabilization lagoon owned by Weeks Farms, Inc. in Dunn, Harnett County. The lagoon was investigated as the result of notification of its existence by ,the Army Corps of Engineers. The lagoon is approximately 100-150 yards from the main channel of Mingo Swamp.' The dike around the lagoon has a base width of approximately 50 feet and the top of the dike is approximately 30 feet in width. On the day of the investigation there was a freeboard in excess of 24 inches. Mr. Dwain Weeks, farmer owner/manager indicates that the lagoon is pumped onto adjacent farmland to benefit his grain crops. Mr. Weeks indicates that the freeboard in the lagoon never is less than 18 inches. Mr. Weeks also stated that he plans to add an additional 2-3 feet of soil to the dike to further insure that the lagoon will not foil and discharge into Mingo Swamp. Mr. Weeks indicated that during heavy rains surface water ranoff around his hog operation is a problem and plans to install underground drainage pipe/ ditches, and dikes to divert this surface water. Based on the investigation it appears that the Weeks' Hog operation is in compliance and there is no discharge to the State's surface waters.

Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solic set, center pivot, gusts, and traveling gun irrigation. Care shoal u be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon, be pre - charged to 112 its capacity to prevent excessive odors durir:g start-up.

ANIMAL WASTE 6TILIZATION PLAN RECEIVED WATER OUA!JTY SECTION Producer: Dwayne Weeks JUN •1 6'1998 Location: Route 1 Box 66 Non=�� �,�e Fermi;tng Dunn NC 28334 Telephone:. 910-892-3930 f Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine r Number 'of Animals: 2700.00 hogs SFP y (Design Capacity) S STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon'1-4 APPLICATION -METHOD:.- 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 "ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 5. Wind conditians'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. 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 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.) 2700 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hags/year = 5130 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 2700 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 6210 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

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 999 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4995 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 16.65 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 39.96 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 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 Tables I and 2.

In no instance 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 waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment -is operated properly to apply the correct -rates to 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 Page: 9 WASTE IITILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED 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. 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.

Name of Technical Specialist (Please Print): Affiliation: Address(Agericy): Phone No.: Signature: Date: SEp 15 1.998 AWC .- April 24, 199b SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE ADDITION OF A SUPPLY LINE AND TWO HYDRANTS TO ADD TO A LAND APPLICATION OF WASTEWATER IRRIGATION SYSTEM FOR THE WEEKS FARMS, INC., HOME FARM, HARNETT COUNTY, NC The irrigation designer did not consult the Nutrient Management Plan as developed by. the Harnett County Office of NRCS since this is only adding a supply line and two hydrants to supply one additional field on Tract 5723. It is assumed that the plan as prepared meets the criteria on PAN loading rates. The two soil types in Field 7, Tract 5723 are Coxville and Norfolk. The Coxville is a poorly drained soil with a permeability of 0.6 to 2.0 inches per hour in the top 10 inches of soil and a permeability of 0.2 to 0.6 inch per hour in the 10 to 64-inch soil depth. The maximum infiltration rate for the Coxville soil is 0.35 inch per hour. The Norfolk soil is well drained and has a permeability of 6.0 to 20.0 inches per hour in the top 13 inches and a permeability of 0.6 to 2.0 inches from 13 to 83- inch depth. The maximum infiltration for the Norfolk soil is 0.5 inch per hour. Unfortunately because both soil types are in the same field, the design infiltration rate is limited by the lower infiltration rate of 0.35 inch per hour. This data was obtained from the Soil Survey of Harnett County, North Carolina. The crops grown on this field are hybrid coastal bermuda pasture over seeded with small grain pasture. The annual PAN loading rate for the Coxville is approximately 120 pounds per acre and for the Norfolk it will be around 210 pounds per acre. The production potential of the Coxville is not as high as is the production potential of the Norfolk. Since the area is in pasture, the PAN loading rate was reduced by 50 percent of that used for coastal berntuda hay and small grain hay. The total irrigated acreage is approximately 11.3 acres. Land Applica 2a System The producer will use either a Hobbs or Kifco/Ag-Rain hose drag reel irrigation system. The Hobbs machine is an older machine with 4.1-inch 1D hose and the Kifco/Ag-Rain is a new machine with 3.7-inch ID hose. Both are equipped or should be equipped with a Nelson 150 gun with 1.1-inch tapered bore orifice (nozzle). This sprinkler has a diameter of 375 feet and a discharge of 315 gallons per minute (gpm) at 80 psi pressure. Because of the limited infiltration rate of the Coxville soil, it will be necessary to use a 3600 arc setting on the gun. Precipation Rate (PR) - 96.3 x gpm x 360 n(.9r)2 W gpm =315 r = 375 feet/2 = 187.5 feet w = 360' PR = 96.3 x 315 x 360" = 0.34 inch hour n(.9 x 187.5)2 360 ° This is less than the infiltration rate of 0.35 inch per hour and there should be no runoff. The normal recommended travel lane spacing is 65 to 75 percent of sprinkler diameter. For these two machines and for this field, it is recommended that the travel lane spacing be 266 feet which is 69.3 percent of sprinkler diameter. There will be a small portion of the field that cannot be covered by land application and one travel lane is restricted in length because of the inadequate width of the field. The land application system should be operated in winds of 5 miles per hour (mph) or less and should never be operated in winds over 10 mph. The maximum application of wastewater at one time should be 0.5 inch. To apply that amount of wastewater will require a travel speed of 3.89 feet per minute. S = 1.605q Id q = sprinkler capacity (gpm) = 315 gpm 1= lane spacing = 260 feet d = depth of application = 0.5 inch S _ 1.605 x 315 = 3.89 feet per minute 260 x 0.5 A total of two hydrants will be needed for this field. Approximately 1460 feet of 6-inch Class 200, IPS, PVC gasketed plastic pipe will be needed for the supply line. Two 6-inch by 6-inch by 6-inch Class 200, IPS, PVC plastic tee, such as those manufactured by Harco will be needed. One will be installed in the existing 6-inch supply line to connect to the new 6-inch supply line and the other will be needed where the new 6-inch supply line tees and goes to the two hydrants. The hydrants will be constructed of a Schedule 80, IPS, PVC plastic tee, 6-inch by 6-inch by 4-inch (G x G x S) or a Schedule 80, IPS, PVC plastic ell, 6-inch by 4-inch (G x S) a 4-inch Schedule 80, IFS, PVC plastic riser and a steel or cast aluminum valve opener. If the tees are used, there should be a 5-foot section of 6-inch pipe beyond the end of the tee, with an end cap on the short section of pipe. A large orifice air relief/vacuum relief valve will be installed on each of the hydrants. The valve should be at least i -inch in size. The 6-inch supply pipe should be installed with a minimum of 30 inches of cover. Concrete thrust blocks will be needed at the two tees and at the ends of the line, either at the end of the pipe or at the 90' ells. 2 The friction loss in the hose on the traveler and in the supply is computed using the formula listed below. 100 1.852 Q 1.852 L FL = 0.2083( ) ] x .433 C D 4.8656 100 c = 150 Q=315 gpm D = 3.70 inch for Kifco/Ag-Rain traveler hose D = 4.1 inch for Hobbs traveler hose D = 5.933 inch for 6-inch Class 200, IPS, PVC pipe L = 1100 feet for Kifco/Ag-Rain traveler hose L = 1250 feet for Hobbs traveler hose Kifco/A�-Mn Supp4 Lin L = 3300 feet for 6-inch supply line FI = [.2083(100)1.asz (315)1•112 1100] x .433 = 34.10 psig rr. 150 (3.7)4.9656 100 100 1.852 (315)1.852 1100 F = [.2083( ) ] x .433 = 23.51 psig 1"� 150 (4.1 f8656 100 100 1•as2 (315)"" 3300 FL6 rh i = [0.2083(150 } (5.993)4.8656 100 x .433 FL = 9.79 psig C Sprinkler Pressure FL Hose FL Supply Line Elevation Difference (Water to high point in field - 10 feet x .433) FL in fittings, valves, etc. Total = 80.00 psig 80.00 psig = 34.10 psig 23.51 psig = 9.79 psig 9.79 psig = 4.33 psig 4.33 psig = 10.00 psig 10.00 psig 138.22 psig 127.63 psig Equipment Needed =73 Pieces of 6-inch by 20-foot Class 200, PIS, PVC plastic pipe, bell and gasket.

Distance of throw with Ring nozzles and Taper/Ring nozzles is slightly less. Consult factory for U complete perormance details. The lower trajectory angles result in better wind fighting ability, but reduced throw distances. Throw reduction depends upon nozzle flow rate. In general the throw distance is reduced approximately 3% with each 39 drop in trajectory angle. Performance data has been obtained under ideal test conditions and may be adversely affected by wind, poor hydraulic entrance conditions or,other factors. Test riser height of three feet above measurement surface.

Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are: a- Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam. b. Pump wastes 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: Runoff from waste application field -actions include: a- Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste. c. incorporate waste to reduce 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 pines 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 restarring pumps. D: Leakage from flush systerns. houses. solid separators -action include: a. Stop recycle pump. j. Stop irrigation pump. c. Make sure no sionon occurs. d. Stop ail flows in the !house. flush syszerns. or solid separators. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. E: Leakage from base or sidewall of IagToon.

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 maturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. 8ither of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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. 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 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.) 800 sows x 7.3 tons waste/sows/year = 5840 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 800 sows x 6.5 lbs PAN/sows/year = 5200 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

Acres shown in each of the preceding 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 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 880 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4400 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 14.6666666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 35.2 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 2596 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 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 Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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. Tract Field Soil Type Crop Application Rate (in/hr) Applic. Amount (inches) 1797 1 NOA BP L; *1,0 1797 '1 NOA SGP .5 *1.0 * This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance 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 waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION WASTE iJTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED 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. 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. Page: 8 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of. dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by 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 embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to prntoc,t the VQ9et'-100 11. V��c r�l_,�t i_c�r� ,311ch aij trees, :shrubj, 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. Page: 9 r WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all 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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Page: 8 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance 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 waste applicator to ensure that the'spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to 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 _ Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED 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. 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 "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. Page: 10 WASTE. UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS, 1.

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 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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. 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 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, f t3, tons, etc.) 800 sows x 7.3 tons waste/aows/year = 5840 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 800 sows.x 6.5 lbs PAN/sows/year = 5200 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application. Page: 2 TRACT FIELD SOIL TYPE & CLASS- CROP. YIELD LBS COMM N ** * LBS ".

Acres 'shown in, -each of 'the preceding 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 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 880 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4400 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 14.6666666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 35.2 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 2516 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 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 Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and Page: 6 f ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN .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: Tract Field Soil Type Crop Application Rate (in/hr) Applic. Amount (inches) 1797 1 : NOA BP .5 *1.3 1797 - -1 . -NOA SGP .5 *1 . 3 *_-This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance 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 waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to 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 Page: 7 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED 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. 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 Utilizaticn 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. S. 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. Page: 8 WASTEUTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops. on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held, to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take-up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy.- . -11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard.393 - Filter Strips). 12. Animal-waste'shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. • 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings- other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by 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 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. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED -SPECIFICATIONS 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and . implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of;'an .illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19.'Waste"handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills: A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of animal -waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all 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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.
