The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake. This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. on sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the fast crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary Storage capacity.

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 that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. if the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur ofl'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. .....--------- -------- ---------- ....... ....... .. 498347 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/12/2004 Specification Paae I S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. ....... ..... ..... .......................... . ------ - - . - .. 498347 Databaso Version 3.1 Date Printed. 5/1212004 Specification Page 2 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a Iower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall.be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) yea rs. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. .................. . ... ...... ....... -- ..... ................ .................... ---------- --...... _....... ---.--.....-. 498347 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/12/2004 Specification Pape 3 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull1, Pu112, Pu113, Pull5, Pu116, Pu117 Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Poorly Drained to Somewhat Poorly Drained.

DELI USE ONLY:ACNEW# T. G. Gibson P. 0. Box 165 Gibson, NC 28343 1 This Waste Management Plan is based on estimates of the amount of lagoon liquid generated by the number of animals on this farm. With Finishing houses the following assumptions are made: 1. Animals will be in your houses 333 days out of the year. 2. Average live weight per animal is 135 pounds. Lagoon liquid is a combination of : 1. Manure and urine -- 450 gal/head/year, 2. Excess fresh water - 300 gal/head/year, 3. Lagoon surface rain surplus - 175 gal/head/year. The total is 925 gallons per head per year. The number of animals in six houses on your farm will be 6 x 720=4,320 head. 4,320 x 925 gal/head/year = 3,996,000 gallons divided by 27,154 to get acre inches/year. This yields 147 acres -inches per year. The actual amount will be dependent on the amount of fresh water used; lagoon size, surface area, and local climate. The amount of nitrogen present in the 147 acre inches is also estimated from a table of average concentrations of nutrients in finishing floor lagoons. It is estimated that there is 68 pounds of tQtai nitrogen in an anaerobic lagoon per acre -inch. nie. L1bje 147 acre -inches x 68 pounds of nitrogen per acre -inch= 9996 pounds of nitrogen available per 147 acre -inches. Estimated Nutrient Availability in Pounds per acre -inch of anaerobic lagoon liquid N P205 K20 Ca Mg S Na Fe Mn B Mo Zn Cu ' 68 37 93 25.5 8.3 10 58 2.4 .34 .18 .0045 1.5 .3 This nutrient management plan is designed to apply only as much nitrogen as the crop can utilize. Since this plan maximizes the amount of lagoon liquid that can be applied based on nitrogen, other nutrients may be over applied. There are 3 fields on this farm that can be utilized for applying swine effluent. Some of the acreage in these fields cannot be utilized by a traveling gun because of ditches and the odd shapes of the fields (Map 1). 2 It is recommended that ditches be cleared as shown in Map 2. This will allow approximately 53 acres of cleared land. The yellow area on Map 2 is considered wetlands and should not be cleared without approval of the Corps of Engineers. An irrigation engineer should be consulted to determine the proper clearing widths for the irrigation system that will be purchased. When the ditches are cleared and planted to bermuda grass, it will be important not to apply waste while there is standing water in the ditches. Waste must not move into the perennial waters as defined by a solid blue line on the most recent version of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 1:24,000 (75 minute) scale topographical map (Map 3). The soil types on this farm are Kenansville (KnA), Gilead (GdB) and Lakeland (LkB) (Map 4). Eight acres are LkB and seven are KnA. The remaining 38 after clearing the ditches is GdB. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly S.C.S.) yield data for LkB is 4.5 tons of hay and 3.375 tons of improved bermuda grass for grazing. Yields on KnA are 5.5 for hay and 4.125 grazing. Yields on GdB are 6.0 hay and 4.5 grazing. Yields on fields grazed are reduced 25% to account for recycling of nutrients.

The amount of nitrogen generated by the animals on this farm is 9,996. This leaves a deficit of 1,348 pounds of nitrogen that roust be applied as commercial nitrogen. The Gilead and Kennansville soil types on this farm can utilize 8,550 and 1,444 pounds of nitrogen, respectively. The 45 acres in these two soil types utilize 9,994 pounds of nitrogen or the equivalent of the total amount of nitrogen generated by the animals. Recommended Application Rates .for Grazing on the Gilead (GdB) soil type 225 lbs. of nitrogen are removed per acre divided by the 68 pounds of nitrogen in an acre inch equals 3.3 inches that could be applied to this soil type. In order to properly utilize these nutrients, an application of 1.1 inches in April, June, and August is suggested (See Figure 1 Relative growth rates for forage crops). Applications should not be made to saturated soils. Applications should not be made at rates higher than the infiltration rate of the soil. The infiltration rate for Gilead is .35 inches per hour with vegetative cover. Ideally slightly less effluent should be applied to a Kennansville soil. Three inches per year or 1" per application. The infiltration rate for this soil type is .6 inches per hour. on a Lakeland soil a total of 2.5 inches should be applied or 3 applications of .83 inches per acre equals 69 pounds of nitrogen per acre. The infiltration rate for a Lakeland soil is .75 inches per hour.

The primary nutrient that may be regulated in the future is P205 in the nutrient sensitive watersheds. This nutrient in currently not a problem in the watersheds in which this farm lies. 0 The other nutrients that may eventually build up in the soil to cause agronomic problems for the bermudagrass are zinc and possibly copper. These nutrients are relatively low according to the soil tests so this does not present an immediate problem. The amount of nitrogen utilized by 53 acres of improved bermudagrass for hay is 15,125 pounds. The amount of nitrogen generated by the animals is 9996. This leaves a deficit of 5,129 pounds of nitrogen that must be applied as commercial. nitrogen. 33.5 acres of Gilead (GdB) soil type in improved bermudagrass for hay is necessary to properly utilize the nitrogen produced by the animals. Recommended Application Rates for Haying On the Gilead soil type 300 pounds of nitrogen are removed per acre divided by the 68 pounds of nitrogen in an acre inch equals 4.4 inches that could be applied to this soil type per acre. To properly utilize these nutrients an application of 1.5 inches is recommended in April, June, and August (See Figure 1, Relative Growth rates for Forage Crops).

Place a small bottle (1/2 pint or less) on the end of a 10- 15 foot long pole. Extend the bottle 10--15 feet away from the bank edge. Brush away any floating scum or debris so it is not collected with sample. Submerge the bottle within 1 foot of the liquid surface. Repeat at approximately 5 locations around the lagoon, place into a plastic bucket, thoroughly mix, and empty 1/2 pint into sample container. Place the sample into a flexible or expandable container that can be sealed. The container should be rinsed clean with water and free of any residues but should not be chlorinated or treated. The sample should be cooled, or transferred to the lab immediately. The NCDA laboratory will analyze the sample for a nominal fee. Applications of effluent should be based on this sample not on this plan, since these numbers are averages and may not represent the true nutrient content of your effluent. Annual sampling of the effluent and soil is recommended before any application of the effluent to the crop. Effluent must be applied to a growing crop or less than 30 days before a crop is planted. Actual yield data should also be kept to determine if the realistic yields per acre of the Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) are accurate and truly represent the yields for the soil types on your farm.

These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a Value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the fast crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

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 that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available Iand. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. b. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offske 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. .... ... --- ........... 498347 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/12/2004 Specification Page 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. .............. .............................. ...................... -- ............ .......... - -.......... ---------------- ...... 498347 Database Version 3A Date Printed: 5/12/2004 Specification Pape 2 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs; etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. ----------------------- ---- ---- .................................. 498347 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/12/2004 Specification Page 3 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull 1, `Pu112, Pu113, Pu115, Pu116, Pu117 Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Poorly Drained to Somewhat Poorly Drained.

The conservation practice, Nutrient Management, is managing the amount, source, placement, form and timing of the application of nutrients and soil amendments to achieve realistic production goals, while minimizing nutrient movement to surface or ground waters. The practice, Waste Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as manure or wastewater in an environmentally sound manner. These practices are jointly accomplished through the development of a Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan, which is normally part of a broader Conservation Plan that addresses multiple natural resource concerns on the land. PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES Your nutrient managementtwaste utilization plan is intended to accomplish one or more of the following objectives: • To budget nutrients for plant production. • To property utilize manure or organic by- products as a plant nutrient source. • To minimize the delivery of agricultural nutrients to surface and ground water resources. • To maintain or improve the physical, chemical, and biological condition of the soil. • To utilize agricultural wastes for livestock feed or as an energy source. CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT 1 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN The information provided in this Job Sheet and the attachments meet the minimum requirements for a Nutrient Management Plan for USDA-NRCS purposes. This Nutrient Management Plan includes, %4' A plan map and soils map for the area planned (these may be part of the overall Conservation Plan). ✓l. Location of designated sensitive areas or resources (streams, wells, sinkholes, etc.) and any associated nutrient application setbacks, etc. -3. Your planned crop rotation. ✓4.

Realistic yield expectations for the crops in the rotation, and their source if other than default values approved for N.C. I. Recommended nutrient application rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as timing, form, and method of application and incorporation, if applicable. A This Job Sheet (or comparable information), that provides the following: • General requirements of this practice, as well as additional requirements to meet the natural resource protection purposes listed above. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page I • Additional considerations specific to this plan. Operation and maintenance information associated with this practice. Because this Nutrient Management Plan includes agricultural organic sources, additional items are required in the plan to ensure proper waste utilization: Waste Utilization Agreement (if applicable) Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement (if applicable) Additional engineering design and operating information for waste storage structures, transport, and application system, as applicable. These designs, and the instructions for operating these structures, is an integral component of your overall Nutrient Management/ Waste Utilization Plan. Emergency Action Plan to prevent overtopping or other discharges from storage structures or facilities, as applicable. This plan was developed based on the current NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal, state, or local regulations or policies. Changes in laws or regulations may necessitate a revision of the plan. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE UTILIZATION General All manure and organic residues must be applied according to a nutrient management plan (see the following section, "BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT') You are required to acquire and comply with all federal, state, or local permit requirements related to the handling and application of manure or organic materials. The nutrient management/waste utilization plan must address all organic waste generated at or brought to the facility. A Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement must exist to address all organic waste not handled by the nutrient management/waste utilization plan. ;': Manure or organic wastes will not be applied to the following areas: • surface waters, • wetlands, unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system, • soils subject to frequent flooding during the period when flooding is expected, • frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soils, • within 200 feet of a dwelling other than those owned by the producer, • within 100 feet of a well, • within 25 feet of surface waters, or • within any other setbacks as identified by federal, state, or local laws or regulations (e.g. NC General Statute prevents swine lagoon effluent from being applied within 75 feet of a residential property boundary or perennial stream or river if the facility was sited on or after October 1995.) Manure or organic wastes will be applied in a manner not to reach surface waters, wetlands (unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system), property owned by others, or public right-of-way. Sludge that accumulates in waste storage structures must be analyzed prior to land application. Adequate provisions (available land and/or third party manure agreements) must exist to ensure sludge is applied in adherence to all nutrient application requirements. All federal and state guidance regarding the proper testing, handling, . planning, and application of sludge must be followed for regulated operations. Since compliance with all applicable North Carolina laws is the responsibility of the producer, you should consult the most current version of the Guidance Memo for Implementing the Environmental Management Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste Management for questions. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other organic residues used for feedstock must be NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 2 handled in a manner to minimize contamination and preserve its feed value. Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall develop rations that utilize animal wastes. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY If your facility is to be used for energy production, all energy producing components of the system are included in the Nutrient ManagementlWaste Utilization Plan and provisions for the utilization of residues of energy production identified. Your Nutrient Management Plan includes the use of these residues, if applicable. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT General Application of nutrients must comply with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The realistic yield expectations (RYEs) in this plan are based on one or more of the following: • Default values approved by the N.C. Interagency Nutrient Management Committee that incorporate soil productivity information, yield data, and research with North Carolina soils, and cropping systems. Additional information on the default values may be found at: www. soil. ncsu. edu1nnnjo1ncnmwaAndex.htm Documented actual yield data from the site, determined by the average of the highest three yields of the last five consecutive specific crop harvests. (For forage crops, determine the average of the highest three years of the last five years.) A fertilization rate recommended by North Carolina State University may be used in cases where no yield data or approved RYE values exist for a crop. An RYE inferred from a similar crop on a soil with similar physical and chemical features may be used for new crops or in the absence of other RYE data. This inferred RYE may ONLY be specified by a certified Nutrient Management planner. Erasion, runoff, and water management controls have been planned, as needed, on fields that receive nutrients. Soil Testing This nutrient management plan has been developed based on current soil test results (no older than three years). Soil samples must be collected and prepared in accordance with North Carolina State University or the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) Agronomic Division standards or recommendations. Soil test analyses can be performed by any laboratory or program that is certified by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of Water Quality, Laboratory Section. NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing. Growers who utilize other laboratories must request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology to ensure the test results are compatible with North Carolina's nutrient management planning and assessment tools. For statewide consistency, all laboratories used must provide fertilization recommendations using guidelines and methodologies as referenced at the NCDACS website: www. nca r. com/a ronomi/obook. him Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory that is supported by field research within the state. Soil testing shall include analysis for all nutrients for which specific information is needed to develop the nutrient plan. Plant Tissue Testing Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall be done in accordance with North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS standards or recommendations. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 3 Manure Testing Nutrient values of manure and organic by- products shall be established for planning purposes based on laboratory analysis, acceptable default values, or historic records for the operation. When determining actual application rates, a laboratory analysis is required. State regulations require that waste be tested within 60 days of utilization for some operations. In the case of daily spreading, the waste must be sampled and analyzed at least once a year. Acceptable laboratories include the NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others certified by the NCDENR. Field Risk Assessment A field -specific assessment of the potential for phosphorus transport from each field (or groups of similar fields) have been conducted, using the North Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT). PLAT assesses the potential for phosphorus (P) to be transported from the site to surface water through each of the four primary loss pathways: • sediment -bound P transported through erosion, • soluble P transported through surface runoff, • soluble P leached through the soil profile, and • non -incorporated source P transported through surface runoff. Based on the assessment of each loss pathway, PLAT produces a single rating for each field. As shown below, this rating will identify whether nitrogen or phosphorus shall be the rate -determining element in developing the planned application rate for manure. PLAT Rating Nutrient Application Criteria LOW Nitrogen -based manure application. MEDIUM Nitrogen -based manure application. HIGH Manure application limited to phosphorus removal from site in harvested plant biomass. VERY HIGH No additional manure application to be specified in plan for the site. On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers may be recommended in accordance with NCSU guidelines or recommendations. In some cases, specific conservation practices that reduce the potential for phosphorus transport have been incorporated into PLAT. Examples include buffers or filter strips, ponds, water table management, and residue management and conservation tillage. Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or planned, have been incorporated into your PLAT analysis. This information is shown on the PLAT results enclosed. Because the management of the site actually affects the PLAT rating, all practices identified on the PLAT analysis (including any required to achieve the specified erosion rate) must be either already installed or included in a Conservation Plan for the Nutrient Management Plan.to be approved. Nutrient Application Rates Recommended nutrient application rates are based on North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS recommendations that consider current soil test results, RYEs, and management. Liming material shall be applied as needed to adjust soil pH to the specific range required by the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum availability and utilization of nutrients. The application amount and rate (inlhr) for liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation) shall not result in runoff from the site. The application shall not exceed the field capacity of the soil. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 4 The planned rates of nutrient application are shown on the attached sheets. These rates have been computed as follows: Nitrogen Application - When the plan is nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or Medium), the application rate of manure or organic by-products shall be based on the recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE for the site (or a rate recommended by NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops without established RYEs). This may result in an application rate for other nutrients that exceeds the soil test recommendation. When the plan is being implemented on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT rating of High or Very High), manure or other organic by-products shall be applied at rates consistent with the phosphorus application guidance below. In such situations, an additional nitrogen application from non -organic sources may be required to supply nitrogen at the rate recommended by the RYE. • Within the limits allowed by PLAT, manure or other organic by-products may be applied on soybeans at rates equal to the estimated removal of nitrogen in harvested plant biomass. All nitrogen rates for hay production are for pure grass stands. Due to the nutrient recycling by grazing animals, the planned nitrogen rate per unit yield for hay crops shall be reduced by 25% for the portion of the expected yield that is removed through grazing. • Phosphorus Application —When manure or other organic by-products are used, the planned rates of phosphorus application shall be based on the PLAT rating for the site, as follows: limited to the phosphorus removal rate of the harvested plant biomass. Very High Rating — No additional manure or organic by-product application is specified in the plan. On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium may be recommended in accordance with North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. . A single application of phosphorus applied as manure or organic by-product may be made at a rate equal to the recommended phosphorus application or estimated phosphorus removal in harvested plant biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. • When such single applications are made, the rate shall: ♦ not exceed the recommended nitrogen application rate during the year of application, or ♦ not exceed the estimated nitrogen removal in harvested plant bio- mass during the year of application when there is no recommended nitrogen application, or ♦ not be made on sites with a Very High PLAT risk rating. Potassium Application — Planned potassium application rates should match the soil test recommended rates as closely as possible. (This is particularly critical in situations where a potentially harmful nutrient imbalance in crops or forages may occur, such as grass tetany). When using manure or other organic sources, the addition of potassium from non -organic sources may be required. Low or Medium Rating — The planned Other Plant Nutrients - The planned manure or organic by-product application rate is based on the nitrogen needs of the rates of application of other nutrients if crop,applicable are consistent with North Carolina State University or the High Rating — The planned manure or NCDA&CS guidelines or organic by-product application rate is recommendations. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 5 J COPPER Nutrient Application Timing I Mehlich-3 Index Action Timing of nutrient application shall correspond as closely as possible with plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while considering cropping system limitations, weather and climatic conditions, and field accessibility. Nutrients shall not be applied to frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soil. Manure or organic by-products shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. For nutrients applied through irrigation systems, application equipment should be properly calibrated to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates. Plan Review and Revision Period A thorough review and revision (if needed) of the nutrient management plan shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not to exceed five years. Heavy Metals Monitoring For animal waste, including sludge, zinc and copper concentrations shall be monitored and alternative crop sites for application shall be sought when these metals approach excessive concentrations. The following criteria and actions are provided: Mehlich-3 Index Action 300 (21 Ibs/ac) Peanuts are very sensitive to zinc, and application on peanuts should be limited. Seek alternative sites when possible. The risk of zinc toxicity is greater with low soil pH and has been seen at Zn-I as low as 300, 500 (35 Ibs/ac) Critical toxic level for peanuts. Cease application on peanuts. " 2,000 (142 Ibs/ac) Caution: Seek alternative sites when possible for all crops. . 3,000 (213 Ibs/ac) Critical toxic level for all crops. Cease application L _ _11 ____ . 2,000 (72 Ibs/ac) 3,000 (108 lbstac) Caution: Seek alternative sites when possible for all crops. " Critical toxic level for all crops. Cease application on all crops. " • Maintain pH at 6.0 on When sewage sludge is applied, the accumulation of potential pollutants (including arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, selenium, and zinc) in the soil shall be monitored in accordance with the US Code, Reference 40 CFR, Parts 403 and 503, and applicable state and local laws or regulations. Additional information on heavy metal criteria for sewage sludge may be found in Land Application of Sewage Sludge, EPA/831-6-93-002b . publication number at: http.lAvww.gpa.govinpdeg/pubstsiudge.pdf ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MINIMIZING DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO SURFACE AND GROUND WATER In areas that have been identified as impaired with agricultural nutrients being a likely source, an assessment shall be completed of the potential for nitrogen or phosphorus transport from the site. (The streamstwater bodies in this category are listed in the USDA- NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, Section I.) ❑ NO This nutrient management plan IS NOT in an area where surface waters are impaired, with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is not required. ❑ YES This nutrient management plan IS in an area where surface waters are impaired, with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is included in this plan. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 6 While the results of the LI does not affect your planned nutrient application rates, some additional conservation practices may be specified in the plan to reduce the risk of nutrient movement from the field, if applicable. IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING NUTRIENTS Nitrogen and phosphorus are water soluble elements and either or both may be components of organic and inorganic fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can move with water as leachate down through the soil, or over the soil surface as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and phosphorus exist in different forms and may move through different transport processes on the same site, they both can have detrimental effects on both surface and shallow ground water quality. As an example, excess nutrients can result in accelerated eutrophication with severe algal blooms and fish kills. Because of the topography, hydrology, and other factors in the state, the environmental problems from excess nutrients reaching surface water may not be exhibited near the contributing source, but rather create water quality problems far downstream. Consequently, the Neuse River Basin, Tar - Pamlico Basin, the Chowan River, the watershed of the B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the watershed of the New River in Onslow County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive waters in North Carolina. Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or organic material is transformed into nitrate and can move with the water moving downward into the shallow ground water and eventually to surface waters. (Relatively small amounts of nitrogen reach our surface waters through rainfall runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a required part of the nutrient management plan in some areas of the state with surface water impairments. The LI uses soils information and local climate data to assess the potential hazard from leaching of nutrients. The results of the Ll analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. Phosphorus: Research in recent decades indicates that, with high soil phosphorus levels, phosphorus has more potential to be transported off -site than recognized in the past. Phosphorus can be transported in several ways(1) attached to soil particles leaving the field through erosion, (2) in soluble form leaving the field in surface runoff, and (3) in soluble form leaching downward through the soil profile, and eventually into surface water. Unlike nitrogen, the most likely transport pathway for phosphorus varies by site, and depends upon such factors as soil erosion rate, soil phosphorus levels, texture of soils, existence of buffers, and other factors. In N.C., PLAT is the tool used to assess potential excessive phosphorus losses. The results of the PLAT analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. If a site receives a PLAT rating of Low or Medium, then applying manure at rates based on the nitrogen needs of the crop is allowed. It is important to realize that this may result in phosphorus being applied at rates that significantly exceed the crop's phosphorus removal rate. In these cases, the planned nutrient application rate is not sustainable, and eventually a PLAT rating of High may be reached. OPERATION & MAINTENANCE You are responsible for safe operation and maintenance of this practice, including all equipment. The following Operation & Maintenance should be conducted: Review the plan annually to determine if adjustments or modifications to the plan are needed. (The S.B. 1217 interagency group guidelines accepted by the N.C. Division of Water Quality for .0200 operations specify a plan revision when there are changes in crops or cropping patterns that utilize more than 25 percent of the nitrogen generated by the operation.) As a minimum, nutrient management plans shall be thoroughly reviewed every five years and revised if necessary. The next review will be performed in NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 (August 2003) page 7 2. Protect fertilizer and organic by-product storage facilities from weather and accidental leakage or spillage. 3. Ensure proper calibration of application equipment to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates. 4. Inspect and maintain the equipment and facilities used to implement the Nutrient ManagementANaste Utilization Plan regularly. Any needed repairs should be made in a timely manner. 5. Review the Emergency Action Plan, if applicable, annually. 6. Records should be maintained for five years, or for a period as required by other Federal, state, or local ordinances, or program or contract requirements. To ensure adequate information exists to support sound nutrient management, NRCS recommends the following records be included: • Soil test results and recommendations for nutrient application, • Quantities, analyses and sources of nutrients applied (When the actual rates used exceed the recommended and planned rates on inorganic fertilizer plans, records should indicate the reasons for the differences, e.g. inability to acquire custom blended fertilizer.) • Dates and method of nutrient applications, • Crops planted, planting and harvest dates, yields, and crop residues removed, • Results of water, plant, and organic by- product analyses, and • Dates of review and person performing the review, and recommendations that resulted from the review. NOTE: State laws or regulations may define record -keeping requirements for some operations. 7. Ensure that workers are protected from and avoid unnecessary contact with inorganic fertilizers and organic by- products. Protection should include the use of protective clothing when working with plant nutrients. Extra caution must be taken when handling ammonia sources of nutrients, or when dealing with organic wastes stored in poorly ventilated enclosures. 8. Properly dispose of material generated by the cleaning of nutrient application equipment. Excess material should be collected and stored or field applied in an appropriate manner. Excess material should not be applied on areas of high potential risk for runoff or leaching. 9. Properly dispose of or recycle nutrient containers according to state and local guidelines or regulations.

OF iCE Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System T. G. Gibson Facility Number 83-14 Scotland 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 5/20/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: ❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Jeffery Brown the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Jeffery Brown, 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 Jeffery Brown at (910) 486-1541. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Jeffery Brown 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 Senzce Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycle&l0% 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.
