If your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) has been developed based on site -specific information, careful
evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current WUP is inaccurate
you will need to have a new WUP 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.
Per 15A NCAC 2T .0105(h) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a .
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, then an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the Animal Feeding Operations Unit for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
In accordance with Condition 11.22 of the General Permit, waste application shall cease within four (4)
hours of the time that the National Weather Service issues a Hurricane Warning, Tropical Storm Warning,
or a Flood Watch associated with a tropical system for the county in which the facility is located. You

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
=--'Nnutdents 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.
a. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is'frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor

problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
—� for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
_ so days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.):
3520 animals X 223 gal/animal/year =
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (ibs):
3520 animals X 0.48 Ibs/animal/year =
783,728 gallons
1,689.60 Ibs
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.

Re: Nutrient Management Plan Amendment
This amendment changes the crops being produced from fescue hay, winter annual
hay and bermudagrass hay to corn for grain and rye harvested as a total plant straw
crop. The amended information replaces the table on page 3 of the existing plan.
Actual nitrogen application from swine waste will decrease as a result of this change.
However, due to the fact that there is a deficit production of nitrogen for the crops,
supplemental nitrogen fertilizer may be applied per plant tissue analysis.

"A negative number reflects the total Ibs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on SA-41j
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:ac�3oe/-
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the,N requirements.
m` .Athe future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
anagement plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. s'
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are,grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small,grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged -to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The Ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
r
'See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.072 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 1267.20
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 4.22 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 10.14 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
Page: 4

such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
,—\plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

`This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
r'--",be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsiability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

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

problems.
6: To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the wash 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 n�� ed to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In sorne cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be ipplied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding
required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas
not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields
listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.072 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 1267.20
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 4.22 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 126 pounds per acre, you will need 10.14 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
Page: 4

such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsiability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

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 soli tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per "acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.

5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow.additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, If carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.):
3552 animals X 223 gal/animal/year =
790,853 gallons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (lbs):
3552 animals X 0.48 Ibslanimallyear =
1,704.96 lbs
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste In a timely manner.

Indicates that this field Is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or winter annuals follow summer
annuals.
`A negative number reflects the total lbs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator Is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In Interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (Le.
April or May). Shading may result If small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
Pan^• A

M
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain Is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in the preceding table 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
n..--.

approximately 0.072 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
if you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 1278.72
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 4.26 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 10.23 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation Is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

`This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure.be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
, It Is the responslability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
D.sna• a

is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.
Additional Comments:
Grower has excess acreage for waste application and is not required to overseed coastal pasture.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Antral waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff drift, manrnade conveyances, direct application, or direct
discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prolubited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized agreement for use of
adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste,
he/she shall provide a copy of a notarized agreement with a landowner who is within a treasonable 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, climate conditions, and level of marragettrent, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at more that 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the
field. (See FOTG Standard 393-Fitter Strips)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland.
When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and CU=e in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off -site or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth
that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential far leaching. Waste
nutrient Ioading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least So feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This
distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present (See Standard
393 - Filter Strips).

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the aater winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet.periods..
Overflow from the -lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
`-' based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes --- look for:
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition.of pipes
0M

Lagoon surface ---look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment ---look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability ---slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
S. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If .
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has
any o these features, you should call an appropriate expert .familiar with design and
constnaction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a Temporary fix if there is a threat -
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping -
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) .system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
w determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
Iagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. FilI new lagoon design treatment volume at least'half full of water before
waste loading'begins, taking care not to erode lining or'bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
L bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon
liquid volume. 'This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.

Practice water conservation ---minimize building water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Management:
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the Iagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid. level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the"winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
"-I-. Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:

proper lagoon sizing,
�. mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a, chopper -agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient -and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. if the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid, Because of this it should probably be applied to Iand with Iow phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your Iagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may Iead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels --high levels are a safety risk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity ---protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during. sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid Level below groundwater'
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a Iarge discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.
I_:

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. it is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 49.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 47.5 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 38398 cubic feet or
287215 gallons.

SHEET 2 OF 2
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
�. inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

SHEET 1 OF 2
SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
----------------------------------------------------------
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
-----------------------------------
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines,
grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over
6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill
shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer
will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method.
Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
SECTION OF'THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed using the more impervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for
settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment
capacity of 10 acre --feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC
Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation
from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 ft.
------ -------------------------------------------------
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT.
When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over -
excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backf illed
as specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie - CL,SC, CH) .
REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.

SHEET 2 OF 2
soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The
'1 minimum water content of'the liner material shall be optimum moisture
content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded
in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water
shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper
compaction of the liner includes placement i.n 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other -than the type of clay used for the
liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence -of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab-
lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant.
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
-� included with this Construction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
--------------
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
shall be used if_the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
-------------------------------
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The the
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

SOILS INVESTIGATION
BILL BRUTON
RICHMOND COUNTY
Mr. Bruton is planning the construction of a 3520 weanling-
to-feeder swine operation on this site. A waste treatment
lagoon will be constructed to hold and treat the effluent
prior to land application.
On March 16,1994 a soils investigation was done on the
proposed site. A backhoe was used to excavate test pits to
determine site suitability for the construction of the
prop.-ised lagoon. -The predominant soil materials encountered
were SM, ML, CL, and SC (unified classification). The SM
is silty sand, ML is silt with a low liquid limit, CL is a
clayey material with a low liquid limit SC is sandy clay.
The ML, CL, and' SC materials are satisfactory for fill
material to construct an embankment and for lining the
inside of the lagoon. These materials have relatively low
permeability when properly compacted. The SM material can be
used on the outer shell of the embankment. Three test pits
were excavated. Weathered parent material was found in the
bottom .of test pits Nos. 2 and 3 at approximately 'S. 5 to 10
feet of depth.
conclusion
This site is adequate for a lagoon of the size that is
planned. Any pervious materials that are encountered should
be overexcavated and backfilled with one foot of compacted
clay materials. A sheepsfoot roller should be used for
compaction on this site.

Conducted by: Others present:
Robert Horton Bill Bruton
SCS District Conservationist Bobby Williamson, Jr.
(Acting) backhoe operator
Mr. Bruton Is planning tobuild a Carroll's Foods contract•swine
nursery (3520 weary--to-feeder operation),. Swine waste produced in
the roursery will be held and treated in a waste treatment lagoon
prior to land application: This soils investigation Is to
determine site suitability for constructing the proposed lagoon.
Site Summary
Sol) Map Units: 5440 - Peawick fine sandy loan
Findings - Four test pits were excavated in the proposed location
for the lagoon ... all In area of deepest proposed cut (Notee A grid
survey of the site was completed prior to the soil investigation
and Howard Hobson - Carroll's Foods had located the proposed lagoon
on the grid survey). Predominate soil materials encountered were
SM, CL, ML-CL and ML (see unified classification legend on back of
Soil Investigation Lag Sheet). The CL and ML-CL materials have
relatively low permeability when properly compacted and make
satisfactory fill materials to construct an embankment. ML
materials can be a suitable construction material with close
control of moisture content during placement and compaction.
Depths and thickness of these soli construction materials was
fairly uniform In all four pits (see Sail Investigation Log Sheet).
Grey mottling, indicating a possible -seasonal high water table, was
observed to some extent In all pits at depths of 3.5-6 ft. below
natural ground elevation (Motet A small amount of water was
observed seeping Into the bottom of pits# 2 & 3...pits# I & 4
remained dry). Based on established grid survey, elevation 47.0
was determined as the seasonal high water table (SHWT) for lagoon
des -I Sri.
One rock was encountered and easily excavated in pit# 4.
General Soil Matey Soils on this site are formed from loamy alluvial deposits on stream terraces. The pits
•generally confirmed soil %leilar to WS - Peasick fine sandy loan with somewhat better drainage... possibly
due to being situated on the ridge top.
Special Note: This proposed lagoon site ertroaches on the estimated too year flood plain (backwaters) of the Pee?
Dee River ---grid survey elevation 47.02, NC geodetic Survey Elevation 204.0 (est. by US ARMY W.

Bill Bruton cont'd
Concluslons — Soil materials on this sIte•are sultab le for
construction of a swine waste treatment lagoon. The thin SM
topsoil overburden will need to be:stripped to expose the CL, CL-ML
to be used in the embankment.- Dale "to the nature of the ML material
on site and availability of better soil material (CL & ML-CL),
Stockpiling and'zone placement of the CL a CL-ML materials Is
recommended (see attached drawing). A"1 - 1.5 ft. compacted clay
liner (CL, CL--ML materlai) will be regUlred where ML materials are
encountered In cut slopot or at lagoon design bottom elevation.
The overburden SM and ektavated ML mateelal may be used In the
outer shell of the embankment and pads. There;is suitable borrow
material (CL, SC, ML-CL) adjacent to the proposed lagooh area If
needed (see previous solls Investigation attached) A sheepsfoot
roller must be used to tolpact soil construction materials during
construction of this lagoon. i
All designed temporary waste storage In this lagoon should occur

field numbers
depending on CAWMP

calculate 75% field by field determination for exemption if possible; otherwise operation will be subject to WA
determination.
FIELD NUMBER - must be clearly delineated on map.
COMMENTS' - back-up fields with CAWMP acreage exceeding 75% of its total acres and having received less than 50%
