of the subject animal waste management system in accordance with General Pennit AWG 100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the ABC Swine Services, located in Sampson County, with a swine animal capacity
of no greater than the following annual averages:
Wean to Finish: Feeder to Finish: 6978 Boar/Stud:
Wean to Feeder: Farrow to Wean: Gilts:
Farrow to Finish: Farrow to Feeder: Other:
Please pay particular attention to the attached groundwater monitoring requirements that are
hereby incorporated into the permit for this facility.

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. Please pay careful attention to the

parameters listed below. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed'
point on the top of the casing. The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells
shall be surveyed relative to a common datum. The water level shall be measured and recorded
prior to purging the wells. The pl-I shall be measured and recorded prior to sampling for the
remaining parameters:
Nitrate (NO3-N) Total Ammonia Nitrogen (NH3-N) Chloride
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Fecal Coliform pl-I (field)
Potassium Water Level Sodium
b. Monitor well(s) MW -1, and MW -2, shall be sampled initially to establish background
concentrations, and upon permit renewal; for the parameters in 1 a. above and the additional
parameters that follow. Any of the following parameters that exceed 15A NCAC 2L groundwater
quality standard limits upon initial or renewal sampling must be added to the list in I a. for routine
monitoring:
Copper Zinc Total Phosphorous
c. If concentrations for any single parameter, or any combination of parameters, listed in or added to
