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 to determine nutrient content 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 f actors 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: I* .1..1A, I. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the onto. Do sot apply wore nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation eschaage capacities, and available rater holding capacities. L. Normally waste shall oat be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. kith special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 1. Do not apply vast# on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozea. Either.of the# coaditioas may result in -runoff to surface wat#rs which is not allowed under North Carouse Divisioa of Environmental Management (CM MO regulations. 5.. Nipd coalitions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problow. 6. To suisin the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor probless. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient' content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to.the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Managemont Commission. i M W3 Anouattof haste Produced Per Yearlgall gas, ft3, toms, etc. Based on his lagoon waste analysis (attached copies) 4,002 animals X _12 Ac.in.' waste/animai/year 490 Ac. i A. waste/year - ,Amount of Plan & available Nitrogoo JPAN), ProducMJ egr Year 1 Ac.in• 0 27,154 gallons Based'on his lagoon waste analysis (copies attached) Ac.in.

Calibration is a simple procedure involving collecting and measuring the material being applied at Several locations in the application area. Calibration helps ensure ghat nutrients from animal waste are applied efficiently and at proper rates. General Guidelines the calibration of a hard hose or cable tow system involves setting out collection containers, ,)perating the system, measuring the amount of wastewater collected in each container, then xmpudng the average application volume and application uniformity. An in -line flow meter installed in the main irrigation line provides an accurate and easy method of computing average application volume for each irrigation cycle. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate. Standard rain gauges work best and are recommended because they already have a graduated, scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform mathematical cot rs Pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross section can be used provided the container is deep enough to prevent. splash (at least 4 inches deep), excessive cvaporatiou, and the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring. All containm should be the same size and shape to simply application depth computadous. All collection containers should be sex up at the same height relative to the height of the gun discharge ckvatio4 (nozzle). The top of the container should be no more than 36 inches above the ground. Collectors should be located so that no interference from the crop occurs. CJ R Calibiahon should be performed. during periods of low evaporation. Best tinges are before 10 am or after 4 pm on days with light wind (less than 5 NW ). On cool," cloudy. days the calibration c w by ICribrmed anytime during the day. The volume collectcd during calibration should be read as soon as a zone or sprinkler is shut off to winiM=,evaporation from the rain gauge. Where a procedure must be performed more than once, coata i ners should be read and values recorded i,rnmedi rely after each diffcrcat VA up. _ .ff 4.1ibraliap set-up for.

Richmond County Soil and Water Conservation District Permit File NDPU Files U Cognac Swine Farm Waste Util-iz-anon Plan RevisionN This plan was revised to to show an animal capacity of 2,178 sows to match the design capacity of the facility. The original WUP was written for an animal capacity of 2,000 sows. The amount of Plant Available Nitrogen was also recalculated using a figure of 5.4 lbs PAN/sow/year from NRCS table 188 "Swine Anaerobic Lagoon Liquid Fertilizer Nutrients". 2,178 x 5.4 = 11,761.20 lbs PAN/year. The 43.26 acres of hybrid bermuda hay and 31.38 acres of small grain overseed can utilize 12,064 lbs of PAN, leaving a nitrogen defecit of 302 lbs.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff drift; manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited 2_ 'There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of a notarized agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing himther the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management. unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actium yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per ,year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393-Filter Strips) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6_ When animai 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 and flies. S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop or forages breaking dormancy.. 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. NRCS, NC JUNE, 1996 EXMIT A-7 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) Animal waste other than swine waste fkom 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), 12_ Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animals waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over - spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc_, shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where considered appropriate. lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erasion. 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 permanent markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the Iiquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds_ 22. Soil tests shall be made every two years and a liquid waste analysis be taken at least twice each year consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry litter shall be tested prior to application_ Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. 23.

The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation, The waste must be land applied at a specified rate 'to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be'used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops where the waste is to be applied, This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the' waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration' rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per Year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. soil incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. Page 2 The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility.

The plan is based on the .soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation, The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops where the waste is to be applied, This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the' waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. soil types are important as they have different infiltration' rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters_ Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential, for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil Incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1 Page 2 The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility.

Robinette: On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the Division of Water Quality, (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit. In accordance with your application received on January 28, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Kenneth R. Robinette, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS770019 which expired on April 30, 2003. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Cognac Farms, located in Richmond County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 2178 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals. If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed. The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.*W fVZbl�t Non -Discharge Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Customer Service Center An Equal Opportunity Action Employer Internet http Hh2o.enr.state.nc_ustndpu Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919)715-6048 Telephone 1-877-623-6748 50%.recycled110% post -consumer paper c� w aLA z �`..

The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be'used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops where the waste is to be applied, This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ehsure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply wasto based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the' waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration' rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. soil incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. Page 2 The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility_ Annual acreage requirements: may be more or less based on the waste analysis ` report for your waste management facility.

Failure to designate an OIC is a violation of state law and your permit, which require the facility owner to designate an OIC of the appropriate type and grade for the classification of this facility. Your facility has been classified as Animal Waste - A. The rule that requires designation of ORC states: "15A NCAC 08F .0201 DUTIES AND REQUIREMENTS OF OWNERS . (a) The owner of each animal operation having an animal waste management system shall submit a letter to the Certification Commission which designates an Operator in Charge. This letter shall be signed by the owner and the certified operator and be submitted to the Certification Commission. The Operator in Charge shall be designated: (1) before a new animal operation having an animal waste management system is placed in operation; or (2) within 30 days after a new Operator in Charge is designated. (b) An owner may voluntarily designate a back-up Operator in Charge to operate the animal waste management system during the absence of the primary Operator in Charge. Only the checked boxes apply: ❑ The last OIC of record is out of license and needs to retake and pass the Animal Waste exam if he or she wants to recertify. In the meantime, a legal OIC must be designated. X'The last OIC listed on a DWQ farm inspection appears to be legal but the designation form either has not been turned in or become lost. ❑ Other To briefly summarize, maintenance of an OIC license requires a minimum six (6) hours of appropriate continuing education credits within each three (3) year period, plus one payment of an annual fee.

The purpose of this revision was to change the WUP to correctly show 2455 Farrow -to - Wean hog units (which is the maximum permitted capacity of your lagoon) instead of 2448 units. This minor alteration was already approved in the attached letter. This change was made to the on -farm plan- general permit section. Please retain this letter in your WUP for future reference.

If required, the report must be filed on forms provided by the Division. 15. The Director may require facilities to submit additional reports and/or certifications based on the facility's compliance history. 16. In the event of a discharge of 1,000 gallons or more of waste to surface waters or wetlands, the Perminee must issue a press release to all print and electronic news media that provide general coverage in the county in which the discharge occurred setting out the details of the discharge. The press release must be issued within forty-eight (48) hours after it is determined that the discharge has reached the surface waters or wetlands. A copy of the press release and a list of the news media to which it was distributed must be kept for at least one (1) year after the discharge and must be distributed to any person upon request. Tune 4, 2004 Permit Number AWG100000 17. In the event of a discharge of 15,000 gallons or more of animal waste to surface waters or wetlands. a public notice is required in addition to the press release described in Condition III 13. The public notice must be placed in a newspaper having general circulation in the county in which the discharge occurred and the county immediately downstream within ten (10) days of the discharge. The minimum content of the notice is the name of the facility, location of the discharge, estimated volume of waste entering state waters, time and date discharge occurred, duration of the discharge, identification water body that was discharged into including creek and river basin if applicable, actions taken to prevent further discharge, and a facility contact person and phone number. 18. If a discharge of 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater or more reaches surface waters or wetlands, the appropriate Division Regional Office must be contacted to determine in what additional counties, if any, a public notice must be published. A copy of all public notices and proof of publication must be sent to the Division within thirty (30) days of the discharge. 19. All facilities, which are issued a COC to operate under this General Permit, shall conduct a survey of the sludge accumulation in all lagoons within two (2) years of receiving the COC and every year thereafter. This survey shall include but not'be limited to a sketch showing the depth of sludge in the various locations within each lagoon. This survey frequency may be reduced if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Division that the rate of sludge accumulation does not warrant an annual survey. If the sludge accumulation is such that it is greater than the volume for which the lagoon was designed or the accumulation reduces the lagoon's minimum treatment volume io less than the volume for that which the lagoon was designed, a sludge removal or management plan must be submitted to the appropriate Division Regional Office within ninety (90) days of the determination. The plan shall describe removal and waste utilization procedures to be used. IV. INSPECTIONS AND ENTRY 1. The Permittee shall allow any authorized representative of Department, upon the presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law and in accordance with reasonable and appropriate biosecurity measures, to: a. Enter the Permittee's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of this General Permit; b. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that must be kept under the conditions of this General Permit; C. Inspect, at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and control equipment), practices, or operations regulated or required under this General Permit; and, d. Sample or monitor, at reasonable times, for the purpose of assuring permit compliance, any substances or parameters at any location. V. GENERAL CONDITIONS L The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for compliance with all applicable surface water, wetlands, groundwater and air quality standards or for damages to surface waters, wetlands or groundwaters resulting from the animal operation. Permit Number AWG100000 2. The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not ' exceed that specified in the facility's CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event plus an additional one (1) foot of structural freeboard except that there shall be no violation of this condition if: (a) there is a storm event more severe than a 25-year, 24-hour event, (b) the Permittee is in compliance with its CAWNIP, and (c) there is at least one (1) foot of structural freeboard_ In addition to the above requirements, for new and expanding farms with lagoon and storage pond designs completed after September 1, 1996, storage must also be provided for the heavy rainfall factor for the lagoons/storage pond. In case of lagoons/storage ponds in series that are gravity fed, the 25-year, 24-hour storm event and/or the heavy rainfall factor storage requirement for the system may be designed into the lowest lagoon/storage pond in the system. However, adequate freeboard must be designed into the upper lagoons/storage ponds to allow sufficient storage to prevent the waste level from rising into the structural, freeboard while the storm water is draining into the lowest lagoon in the system. 3. Any containment basin, such as a lagoon or a storage pond, used for waste management shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of this General Permit until properly closed. When the containment basin is properly closed in accordance with the "Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS) North Carolina Standard for Closure of Waste Impoundments," March 2002 or any subsequent amendment, the containment basin shall not be subject to the requirements of this General Permit. The Permittee must submit a letter to the Division to, request rescission of the COC by providing documentation of closure of all containment basins. Closure shall also include a minimum of 24 hours pre -notification of the Division and submittal of the Animal Waste Storage Pond and Lagoon Closure Report Form to the address identified on the form within fifteen (15) days of completion of closure. 4. This General Permit allows for the distribution of up to four cubic yards of manure per visit to individuals for personal use. The Permittee provide the recipient(s) with information on the nutrient content of the manure. Distribution of greater quantities must be to individuals or businesses permitted to distribute the waste, or to be land applied to sites identified in the Permittee's CAWNIP. 5. The Permittee must inform the recipient(s) of his/her responsibilities to properly manage the land application of manure. Record keeping for the distribution of manure up to four (4) cubic yards per visit to individuals for personal use is not required. 6. The annual permit fee shall be paid by the Permittee within thirty (30) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly constitutes grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Permit: 7. Failure of the Permittee to maintain, in full force and effect, lessee and landowner agreements, which are required in the CAWMP, shall constitute grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Perrot. 8. A COC to operate under this General Permit is not .transferable. In the event there is a desire for the facility to change ownership, or there is a name change of the Permittee, a Notification of Change of Ownership form must be submitted to the Division, including documentation from the parties involved and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. This request will be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved. 11 June 4, 2004 Permit Number AWG100000 9.• A COC to operate under this General Permit is effective only with respect to the nature and volume of wastes described in the application and other supporting data. The Permittee shall notify the Division immediately of any applicable information not provided in the permit application. 10. If the Permittee wishes to continue an activity regulated by this General Permit after the expiration date of this General Permit, the Permittee must apply for and obtain a new COC. Renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the General Permit. 11. The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit does not prohibit the Division from reopening and modifying the General Permit or COC, revolting and reissuing the General Permit or COC, or terminating the General Permit or COC as allowed by the appropriate laws, rules, and regulations. 12. The Director may require any person, otherwise eligible for coverage under this General Permit, to apply for an individual permit by notifying that person that. an application is required. 13. The Groundwater Compliance Boundary is established by 15A NCAC 2L and 15A NCAC 2H .0225. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to the requirements of 15A NCAC 2L and the Division in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under the North Carolina General Statutes. VI. - PENALTIES 1um Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this General Permit; the facility's COC; the facility's CAWMP; and/or applicable state law; may subject the Pen-nittee to an enforcement action by the Division including but not limited to the modification of the animal waste management system, civil penalties, criminal penalties and injunctive relief. 2. The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this General Permit. Any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of state law and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit coverage termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit coverage renewal application. It shall not be a defense for a Permittee in an enforcement action to claim that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this General Permit. 25-year, ?A -hour rainfall or storm event means the maximum . 24-hour precipitation event with a probable recurrence interval of once in 25 years, as defined by the National Weather Service in Technical Paper Number 40, "Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States," May 1961, and subsequent amendments, or equivalent regional or state rainfall probability information developed therefrom,. Agronomic rates means the amount of animal waste and/or other nutrient sources to be land applied to lands as contained in the nutrient management standard of the USDA Soil Conservation Service Technical Guide Section IV or as recommended by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services and the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service at the time of certification of the Animal Waste Management Plan by the appropriate technical specialist. Permit Number AWG100000 Amendment to the CAWMP means a change and/or addition to a part(s) of the plan, and requires that the change and/or addition adhere to current applicable standards. The following are examples of amendments to the CAWMP: • In an existing CAWNT, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes 25% or less of the N generated is considered a plan amendment. Additional acreage needed to facilitate the change in crops and/or cropping pattern is permissible and considered part of the amendment. The addition of winter crops and/or interseeded perennial crops are considered amendments to an existing CAWMP when the operation does not require additional acreage and/or crops for N utilization, and does not exceed the 25% criteria stated above. • When a CAWMF cannot meet N utilization requirements due to land lost to irrigation inefficiency (useable versus total acres), then the CAWMP may be amended to increase available acreage and/or change the crop for N utilization. This is the only exception to the 25% N criteria for plan revision. • Inclusions of emergency action plans, and insect, odor and mortality checklists are considered CAWMP amendments. • including additional acreage for land application beyond what is required in the existing CAWMP is considered a plan amendment. Animal feeding operation means a lot or facility (other than an aquatic animal production facility) where the following conditions are met: (i) animals (other than aquatic animals) have been, are, or will be stabled or confined and fed or maintained for a total of forty five (45) days or more in any twelve (12) month period, and (ii) crops, vegetation, forage growth, or post -harvest residues are not sustained in the normal growing season over any portion of the lot or facility. Two or more animal feeding operations under common ownership are considered to be a single animal feeding operation if they adjoin each other, or if they use a common area or system for the disposal of wastes. Ditch means any man made channel for the purpose of moving water off a site to the surface waters. Excessive Ponding means any area of the application field where visible liquid waste is ponded on the surface of the -Iand application site more than four (4)' hours following the application of waste. Excessive ponding also means any areas where the ponding of waste has resulted in crop failure. Groundwaters means any subsurface waters, as defined in 15A NCAC 2L .0102. Land application means the application of wastewater and/or waste solids onto or incorporation into the soil. Major changes to the CAWMP means changes in the number of animals, type of operation (feeder to finish to wean to feeder), retrofit of a lagoon, installation of a new irrigation system, and similar type changes. Recertification is only required for major changes to the CAWMP. Major changes to a facility must first be approved by DWQ. The new CAWMP and the certification shall be submitted with a request that the COC be amended to reflect the changes. The facility may not make the changes until a new or amended COC has been issued. 13 June 4, 2004 Permit Number AWG100000 Revision to the CAVR P means a change to an entire CAWMP to meet current applicable standards. A CAWMP must be revised if the operation cannot utilize all N nitrogen generated by the animal production in accordance with the existing CAWMP, except for the specific conditions noted in the CAWMP amendment criteria as previously defined. For an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes more than 25% of the N generated by the operation is considered a plan revision. Any change to an existing CAWMP, whether an amendment or revision, must be signed and dated by both the producer and a technical specialist for the new CAWMP to be valid. A revision of the CAWMP does not require recertification. State Waters means all surface waters, wetlands, groundwaters and waters of the United States located in the State. Surface Waters means any stream, river, brook, swamp, lake, sound, tidal estuary, bay, creek, reservoir, waterway, or other surface body or surface accumulation of water, whether public or private, or natural or artificial, that is contained in; flows through, or borders upon any portion of the State of North Carolina, including any portion of the Atlantic Ocean over which the State has jurisdiction as well as any additional Waters of the United States which are located in the State. Waste means manure, animal waste, process wastewater and/or sludge generated at an animal feeding operation. . Wetlands means areas that are inundated or saturated by an accumulation of surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do support a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions, as defined in 15A NCAC 2B .0202.

North Carolina Division of Water Quality By Authority of the Environmental Management Commission Permit Number AWGI00000 WArFR CiJ r ¢ 'C Mr. Kenneth Robinette Cognac Farms PO Drawer 160 Marston, NC 28363 Dear Mr. Robinette, Michael F. Easley, Governor. William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Env ir^rment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality November 5, 2004 Subject., Application No. AWS770019 Additional Information Request Cognac Farms Animal Waste Operation Richmond County The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary review of the request received on October 8, 2004 to change the operation type and number of animals for Cognac Farms. i have requested a staff report from the regional office for their recommendations, but while I am waiting for their response, I will need some additional information before I can continue with the review. Please address the following: The lagoon at this facility appears to have been designed and constructed to accommodate a total Steady State Live Weight of hogs of 997,074 lbs. The lagoon would then be capable of supporting (997,074 / 433) 2302 Farrow to Wean hogs. If approved, 2302 Farrow to Wean would be the greatest number of animals we would be able to permit. This would allow the replacement of boars at one per 15 sows for a total animal population of (2302 + 2302/15) 2455 head. [The calculations in your request did not include the boar replacement for the 125 head (125/15) so your total population figure of 2448 is lower than the 2455 above. I presume you intendedto include replacement for boars for these sows as well.] 2. The number of head and type of animals must all agree on the permit, the Waste Utilization Plan and the Waste Management Plan Certification. Please provide a revised Waste Utilization Plan and Waste Management Plan Certification for the number of animals to be permitted (presumably 2302 Farrow to Wean). Note that these should designate the number of animals to be permitted not the population of sows without boars, since the standard animal waste figures for Farrow to Wean animals include allowance for boars or for one additional sow per 15 sows. Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist. Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be signed, sealed, and submitted to my attention at the address below. Thank you. If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at (919) 715-6186 or email me at duane.ieith@ncmail.net.

This amendment addresses changing the forage harvest on the site to grazing versus the.previous hay system. It also changes the crops grown on field 9 from oats to bermudagrass with a winter annual over seeding. The over -seeded crops will be changed from small grains to winter annuals which allows the use of small grain and rye grass. Two new fields, noted as fields 10 and 11, will also be added to the plan. They will be managed as grazed bermudagrass and winter annual over-seedings also. The land application system will also change in that a "honey" wagon or liquid waste spreader will be used to apply waste to acreage not available to irrigation application. At present the farm has a signed contract for that piece of equipment. (See attachment A) It is the responsibility of the farm ownership and management to make sure that equipment is available, is calibrated and is operated correctly in order to apply waste at the proper agronomic rates. Acreage estimates were developed using scaled maps and comparison with Farm Service Agency acreage determinations. It is estimated that 18033 pounds of N can be applied to this site using an irrigation and liquid waste spreader system. Approximately 11,762 pounds of N are estimated to be produced by the animals on this farm. As a result there is an estimated deficit of 6,271 pounds of N. The certifications for the Land Application Site are attached and apply to the amendment. The amended information is listed in Table IF titled Cropping Systems, Acreage and N Utilization.

The operator will be responsible for applying the material at agronomic rates. The areas applied to will include areas receiving no irrigated material plus the outer 15-20 percent of each spray lane that does not receive the agronomic N rate through irrigation. During calibration of the irrigation equipment, the proper honey wagon rates will be determined for these areas. It is the operator's responsibility to apply at the proper rates in those areas. Calibration Applicators can apply manure, litter and wastewater at varying rates and patterns, depending on forward travel and/or PTO speed, gear box settings, gate openings, operating pressures, spread widths and overlaps. Calibration defines the combination of settings and travel speed needed to apply manure, litter or wastewater at a desired rate and to ensure uniform application. Spreader Capacity Liquid spreader capacities are normally rated by the manufacturer in gallons. Multiply gallons by 0.0042 to get tons. Solid and semi -solid spreaders are rated by the manufacturer either in bushels or cubic feet (multiply bushels by 1.24 to get cubic feet). Most spreaders have two rating capacities: 1) struck or level full, and 2) heaped. Since manures and litters have different densities, an on -farm test should be done. Fill a five -gallon bucket level full with material to be spread. Do not pack the material in the bucket but ensure that it settles similar to a loaded spreader. Weigh the bucket full and then empty. Multiply the weight of the contents by 1.5 to get pounds per cubic feet. Multiply this value times the cubic feet.capacity of the spreader and divide by 2000 to get the tons of material in a spreader load, manure weight, Is x 1.5 x spreader capacity, fe _ 2000 = spreader load, tons Spreader Calibration Calibration Method 1: This method is most useful for liquid spreaders but can be used for all types. Spread at least one full load of manure preferably in a square or rectangular field pattern for ease of measuring with normal overlaps. Measure the length and width of coverage recognizing that the outer fringe areas of the coverage will receive much lighter applications than the overlapped areas. Multiply the length by the width and divide by 43560 to determine the coverage area in acres. Divide the tons of manure in the spreader by the acres covered to determine the application rate in tons per acre. spreader manure, tons - (coverage length, ft x width, ft _ 43560 ) = application rate, tonstacre Repeat the procedure at different speeds and/or spreader settings until the desired application rate is achieved. Example: What forward speed would be needed to apply 6.0 tons litter per acre from a spreader with a &-ton capacity, a 5- minute spreading time, and a 25-feet spreading width? Forward speed, mph = capacity, tons x 495 time,min x width x rate, tons per acre 6 tons x 495 5 min x 25 ft x 6 ton per acre 4 miles per hoar Calibration Method 2: This method is often used for solid and semi -solid spreaders. A tarp or plastic sheet of about 100 square feet (9'x12', 10'x10', etc.) should be measured for exact surface area (length x width), weighed using a set of spring -tension or platform scales, then spread and NCSU Nutrient Management Manual North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service 2-19 pinned on the field surface. The spreader should be operated at its normal settings, speed and overlap. With a rear discharge spreader, three passes should be made: the first directly over the center of the sheet, the other two on opposite sides of the center at the normal spreader overlap spacing. The sheet with the collected manure should again be weighed- Subtract the empry sheet weight from the total weight to get the weight of the collected manure. Multiply the pounds of collected manure by 21.8 and divide by the collection area of the sheet in square feet to get the application rate in tons per acre. collected manure, lbs z 21.3 / collection area, ft= = application rage, tons/here Repeat the procedure using different settings or speeds to obtain the desired application rate. S oreader Pattern Uniformity To determine the uniformity of spread and the amount of overlap needed., place a line of small pans or trays equally spaced (2-4 feet apart) across the spreader path. The pans should be a tnmimum of 12" by 12" or 15" diameter, no more than 24" by 24", and 2"-4" deep- Make one spreading pass directly over the center pan. Weigh the contents caught in each pan or pour the contents into equally sized glass cylinders or clear plastic tubes and compare the amount in each. The effective spread width can be found by locating the point on either side of the path center where the manure contents caught in the containers is half of what it is in the renter. The distance between these points is the effective spread width. The outer fringes of the coverage area beyond these points should be overlapped on the next path to ensure a uniform rate over the area..

The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous. COC Number AWS770019 which expires September 30, 2009. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from Cognac Farms, located in Richmond County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 2302 Farrow to Wean swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows. The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals. Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit. If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.

OFFICE Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Cognac Farms Facility Number 77-19 Richmond County A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Jeffery Brown on 5119199 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Robert Heath the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Robert Heath, 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 Robert Heath at (910) 486-1541. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Robert Heath 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% recycle&10% 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, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

Bennett Date: November 16, 2004 Subject: Permit Number AWS770019 According to the routine inspection records in the Fayetteville Regional Office, Cognac Farms (77-19) always has been recorded as a 2178-head, farrow -to -wean facility- There has been no mention of the 400-head, feeder -to - finish operation. The only reference to this feeder operation that I was able to find was handwritten on the original waste utilization plan, dated March 29, 1994. I found aerial photographs for both Cognac Farms and J-D Farms LLC (77-3), which originally was called Carolina Swine Farms Inc_ and was permitted with Kenneth Robinette as the owner. This other facility is permitted as a 4000-head, farrow -to -wean operation. I have included the aerial photograph with this memo for you to review and highlighted the houses. J-D Farms LLC appears to have two 2000-head facilities, consisting of four houses each (highlighted in blue). Cognac Farms has five houses, four of which are set in the same pattern as the J-D Farms LLC buildings (also highlighted in blue). The fifth building (highlighted in red) could be the feeder building in question. Looking through the compliance history for the farm, I found a couple of minor violations. In 1999, the fans was cited for erosion problems around the lagoon. In 2001, DSWC discovered three cases of hydraulic overload and referred them to DWQ. Since 2001, there have been no recorded problems with the facility. , If you have any additional questions, feel free to contact me at (910) 486-1541.

We would like to apply fine an increase in the plans animal utverntory numbers to rufleet the original lagoon design, which reNcted an additional 400 i td c2tpachy for finishing gilts. This building is no longer being used to grow the gilts. We would like to use them 54000 lbs. of boon capacity for an increase in the sow heard. Our estimated increase, based on the design calculation would be 125 head. This would give us a capacity of the 2179. now on the pe mit divided by, 15 to replace the beam, which is 145 increase. 145 pleas 125 for f Wiing would tiring Our total enpacky to 2448. We the» k you for your assistance with this and we wait anxiously for your permission for this retrofit of the oumbera. This should nos very from the original ft., in the original design plans of 04105/95. 1 have attached a copy of the lagoon calculations oftof the lagoon blue prier.

Technical Specialist certifying waste management plans after September 1, 1996, must also certify that operators have been provided calibration and adjustment guidance for all land application equipment. The rules apply to irrigation sys- tems as well as all other types of liquid, slurry, or solid application equipment. Information presented in manufacturers' charts are based on average op- erating conditions for relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and applica- tion rates change over time as equipment ages and components wear. As a result, equipment should be field calibrated regularly to ensure that applica- tion rates and uniformity are consistent with values used during the system design and given in manufacturers' specifications. Field calibration involves collection and measurement of the material being applied at several locations in the application area. This publication contains step-by-step guidelines for field calibration of hard hose and cable tow traveler irrigation systems. Operating an irrigation system differently than assumed in the design will alter the application rate, uniformity of coverage, and subsequently the applica- tion uniformity. Operating with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening, which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. Clogging of nozzles or crystallization of main lines can result in increased pump pressure but reduced flow at the gun. Plugged intakes will reduce operating pressure. An operating pressure below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. Field calibration helps ensure that nutri- ents from animal waste are applied uniformly and at proper rates. The calibration of a hard hose or cable tow system involves setting out collection containers, operating the system, measuring the amount of wastewater collected in each container, and then computing the average application volume and application unifor- mity. An in -line flow meter installed in the main irrigation line provides a good estimate of the total volume pumped from the lagoon during each irriga- tion cycle. The average application depth can be determined by dividing the pumped volume by the application area. The average application depth is computed from the formula: Average application depth (inches) = Volume pumped (gallons) 27,154 (gal/ac-in) X Application area (acres) The average application depth is the average amount applied throughout the field. Unfortunately, sprinklers do not apply the same depth of water throughout their wetted diameter. Under normal operating conditions, application depth decreases towards the outer perimeter of the wetted diameter. Big gun sprinkler systems typically have overlap based on a design sprinkler spacing of 70 to 80 percent of the wetted sprinkler diameter to compen- 0 Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment sate for the declining application along the outer perimeter. When operated at the design pressure, this overlap results in acceptable application uniformity. When operated improperly, well -designed systems will not provide acceptable application uniformity. For example, if the pressure is too low, the applica- tion depth will be several times higher near the center of sprinkler and water will not be thrown as far from the sprinkler as indicated in manufacturers' charts. Even through the average application depth may be acceptable, some areas receive excessively high application while others receive no application at atl. When applying wastewater high in nutrients, it is important to determine the application uniformity. Collection containers distributed throughout the application area must be used to evaluate application uniformity. Many types of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application uniformity. Standard rain gauges work best and are recom- mended because they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application depth. Pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross section can be used provided the container is deep enough (at least 4 inches deep) to prevent splash and excessive evapora- tion, and the liquid collected can be easily trans- ferred to a scaled container for measuring. All con- tainers should be the same size and shape to simplify application depth computations. All collection containers should be set up at the same height relative to the height of the sprinkler nozzle (discharge elevation). Normally, the top of each container should be no more than 36 inches above the ground. Collectors should be located so that there is no interference from the crop. The crop canopy should be trimmed to preclude interference or splash into the collection container. Calibration should be performed during periods of low evaporation. Best times are before 10 a.m. or after 4 p.m. on days with light wind (less than 5 miles per hour). On cool, cloudy days the calibration can be performed anytime when wind velocity is less than 5 mph. The volume (depth) collected during calibration should be read soon after the sprinkler gun cart has moved one wetted radius past the collection gauges to minimize evaporation from the rain gauge. Where a procedure must be performed more than once, containers should be read and vatues recorded immediately after each setup. Calibration Setup for Hard Hose and Cable Tow Traveling Guns Hard hose and cable tow traveling guns are calibrated by placing a row (transect) of collection containers or i gauges perpendicular to the direction of travel, Figure 1. The outer gauge on each end of the row should extend past the furthest distance the gun will throw wastewater to ensure that the calibration is performed on the "full" wetted diameter of the gun sprinkler. Multiple rows increase the accuracy of the calibration. Containers should be spaced no further apart than 1/16 of the wetted diameter of the gun sprinkler not to exceed 25 feet. At least 16 gauges should be used in the calibration. Sixteen gauges will be adequate except for large guns where the wetted diameter exceeds 400 feet. (Maximum recommended spacing between gauges, 25 feet X 16 = 400 feet.) Gauges should be set at least one full wetted diameter of throw from either end of the travel lane, as shown in Figure 1. The system should be operated such that the minimum travel distance of the gun cart exceeds the wetted diameter of throw. Application volumes should be read as soon as the last gauges stop being wetted. • • • Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment Lane 1 Lane 2 Reel cart on • Leh Right 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Left Right Gun 8 716 5 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 17 8 O O O O D 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O can Direction of travel I Gun cart Effective lane s acing II (224 feet 1 Effective lanes acing _ > f (224 feet 1 Figure 2.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURES (continued) • 9.'Add the amounts collected in all gauges and divide by the number of gauges within the effective area. This is the average application depth (inches) within the effective lane spacing. Sum of amounts collected in all gauges € Average application depth = I Number of gauges within effective width 10. Calculate the deviation depth for each gauge. The deviation depth is the difference between each individual gauge value and the average value of all gauges (#7). Record the absolute value of each deviation depth. Absolute value means the sign of the number (negative sign) is dropped and all values are treated as positive. The symbol for absolute value is a straight thin line. For example, 121 means treat the number 2 as an absolute value. It does not mean the number 121. Because this symbol can lead to misunderstandings, it is not used with numbers in the worksheets at the end of this publication. The symbol is used in formulas in the text, Deviation depth = IDepth collected in gauge i — average application depth) "i" refers to the gauge number 0 11. Add amounts in #10 to get "sum of the deviations" from the average depth and divide by the number of gauges to get the average deviation. Sum of deviations (add amounts computed in #10) Average deviation depth = Number of gauges within effective lane spacing 12.The precipitation rate (inches/hour) is computed by dividing the average application depth (inch) (#9) by the application time (hours) (#5) Average application depth (inch) Precipitation rate = 0 Application time (hours) ! i • HARD HOSE AND CABLE TOW TRAVELER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS Reel cart 30 Left Right Row of 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 collection 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 gauges cartDirection of travel Wetted diameter At easone wetted r\Gun (320 feet) diameter end of field Y Figure 1. General layout and orientation of collection gauges for calibration of a hard hose and cable tow traveler irrigation systems. CALIBRATION PROCEDURES I ! 1. Determine the wetted diameter of the gun. ; 2. Determine the number of collection gauges and spacing between gauges. For a wetted diameter of 320 feet, the rain gauge spacing should not exceed 20 feet. (320 ft / 16 = 20 ft). { 3. Label gauges outward from the gun cart as either left or right (Ll, 1-2, L3, etc; R1, R2, R3, etc.) i 4. Set out gauges along a row as labeled and shown in Figure 1, equally spaced at the distance determined in item 2 (20 feet), The row should be at least one wetted diameter from either end of the pull. The first gauge on each side of the travel lane should be 1 /2 the gauge spacing from the center of the lane. For a gauge spacing of 20 feet, L1 and R1 should be 10 feet from the center of the lane. I S. Operate the system for the time required for the gun to completely pass all collection containers. Record the "starting" time that wastewater begins to be applied along the row of gauges and the "ending" time when wastewater no longer is being applied anywhere along the row. Also record the distance traveled in I feet for the time of operation. 6. Immediately record the amounts collected in each gauge. (Refer to Table 1 for an example.) I 7. Identify those gauges that fall outside the effective lanes spacing, Figure 2. This volume is the overlap E fY g g P 9, 9 P volume that would be collected when operating the system on the adjacent lane. 8. Superimpose (left to right and vice versa) the gauges just outside the effective width with the gauges just inside the effective width. Add the volumes together. For the layout shown in Figure 2, add the volume (depth) collected in gauge R8 (outside the effective lane spacing) to volume (depth) collected in gauge LS (inside the effective lane spacing). Similarly, R7 is added to 1-6; L8 is added to 115; and L7 is added to R6. This is now the application volume (depth) within the effective lane spacing adjusted for overlap. u HARD HOSE AND CABLE TOW TRAVELER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS CALIBRATION PROCEDURES (continued) 13. Compute the average travel speed Distance traveled (feet) Average travel speed = Time (minutes) 14. Determine the application uniformity. The application uniformity is often computed using the mathematical formula referred to as the Christiansen Uniformity Coefficient. It is computed as follows: Average depth (#9) - Average deviation (#11) Uc = X 100 Average depth (#9) 15. Interpret the calibration results. The higher the index value, the more uniform the application. An index of i 100 would mean that the uniformity is perfect — the exact same amount was collected in every gauge. For travelers with proper overlap and operated in light wind, an application uniformity greater than 85 is common. Application uniformity between 70 to 85 is in the "good" range and is acceptable for wastewater application. Generally, an application uniformity below 70 is considered unacceptable for wastewater irrigation using . travelers. If the computed Uc is less than 70, system adjustments are required.
