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 CAWMP, 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 pattem 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 CAWMP 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. Permit AW1820049 21 November 24, 2010 + 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. Certification means technical specialist certification of the CAWMP in accordance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 02T .1304. it is unrelated to terms "Annual Certification" as used in Condition 111.20 of this Permit, and the "No Discharge Certification Option" allowed by the November 2008 EPA CAFO Rule. 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 land 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 mean 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. Revision to the CAWMP 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. Permit AW1820049 22 November 24, 2010 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.

Sampson Farm Capacity: Farrow to Wean Farrow to Feeder Farrow to Finish Wean to Feeder Feeder to Finish 5760 Storage Structure: Anaerobic I Storage Period: Application Method: >180 days Irrigation _agoon The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or -applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1 of 11 This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. It you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small graln, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three ti es during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. - The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 2073.6 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 10368 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize_ Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 34 acreas of land. if you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 82.944 acres of land. Please note that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION: The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. *This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under -optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. in no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables.

YDate 8of11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches, surface water is prohibited. 2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of 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 Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, recievinq crop type, or available land. 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 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). 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. 8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen_ 9of11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. i 1 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 than 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 shali not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by 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. 10 of 11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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 soil 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 a minimum of five years. 23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. 11 of 11 OF W A rE [UN Michael F.

Division of Water Quality August 11, 2008 Phillip Hudson Rosin Hill Farms, Inc. 700 Main St Newton Grove, NC 28366 Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change Dear Permittee: In accordance with Condition III.19 of State General Permit AWG100000, your facility is required to maintain compliance regarding sludge accumulation in your animal waste treatment lagoon(s). As you know, the previous compliance limit was to have a minimum of four (4) feet of treatment depth between the designed stop pump and the average elevation of the top of the sludge blanket. This requirement was based on NRCS Standard No. 359, which was recently modified. As of July 2008, Standard No. 359 does not use the 4-foot requirement. Sludge compliance is now to be based on the sludge volume as a percentage of the total treatment volume. The revised Standard states that sludge accumulation in the permanent treatment zone must be less than 50% of the planned treatment volume. Also, there must be a minimum of 2.5 feet of liquid above the sludge at the pump intake location. If either of these conditions is not met then sludge must be removed or managed in accordance with an approved Plan of Action for Lagoon Sludge Reduction (POA). A new sludge survey worksheet has been developed to calculate sludge and treatment volumes to determine compliance. Our records indicate that you have filed a Sludge POA for one or more of the lagoons at your facility. Based on the changes to the sludge requirements in Standard No. 359, your lagoon(s) may already be in compliance without any sludge removal. Using your lagoon design (or as - built information) and current sludge survey measurements, complete the NEW sludge survey worksheet. If you have any difficulty in locating or understanding your lagoon design information, please contact your technical specialist or county Soil & Water office.

Farms tr RECEA D June 10, 1999 4 1999 Division of Air Quality FAYETTE ILLE RE-G. OFFICE Fayetteville Regional office Wachovia Building 225 Green Street Suite 714 Fayetteville, N.C. 28301 Dear'Sir or Madam: am"wiitiug you per instructions received in a letter from Mr. Alan Klimeck dated May 27, 1999 concerning temporary odor rules for swine farms. In his letter Mr. Khmeck stated that if I believed that"ut rs problematic for you to comply with arty of these required management practices please send written documentation by An gust 1,1999." We believe that it is problematic for our farms to comply with requirement No. 7. In addition we also question the effectiveness of requirement No. I and believe that both of these rules will have a negligible or adverse effect on odor and could produce negative impacts on water quality. Requirement No. 7 states that flush tanks should be covered or the fill pipes should be extended below the surface of the wastewater of the tank. From personal observation, I feel that these tanks and the way that they fill are not a significant source of odor on a swine farm. By covering or extending the fill pipes the farm operator will not be able to observe the rate at which the recycle rater fills the tank. This is critical because the tanks are often set up to dump periodically with a timer. If the tanks dump before they are filled the result is insufficient, water to completely move the manure out of the pit thus creating more odois from the building. Conversely, if the tank fills before it is time to dump, you risk a spill via a blocked overflow pipe. June 10, 1999 Page 2 Requirement No. 1 states that the discharge point of the pipe from the buildings shall enter below the surface of animal wastewater lagoons. This requirement will make it impossible for the operator to observe what is being discharged from the buildings. A pipe that becomes clogged may go undetected leading to a back up of recycle water in the pit with the potential to spill out of the building The operator also will not be able to detect any unusual discharge such as fresh water from a leak or malfunction. The added turn in the pipe needed to direct the flow under the lagoon surface could also increase the chance of a blockage. Because of these concerns we have not covered or extended the fill pipes on the dump tanks at any of the farms that we own or manage. We have extended our discharge lines under the surface of the lagoons. We have advised our growers to extend their discharge lines but have given them their choice on how to handle the flush tanks. Most have opted to leave them as is. I have included a list of farms associated with TDM in your region. This includes farms, which we own, manage, or grow hogs on Contract for us. Thank you for your attention to this matter and if you have any questions please feel f= to contact me. Sincerely, Doug Niemond Environmental Manager Cc:DWQ Mr. Bob Heath FARM NAME DWQ FACILITY NO.

Retain this plan for your use and records. It is strongly recommended that you, your contractor and the Soil Conservation Service personnel are in agreement as to how the waste lagoon is to be constructed. SCS personnel will meet with all concerned parties and walk over the site to explain all fla(Js and markings. It is important that everyone understands what is expected so that final construction meets plans and specifications and the job can be certified for payment (if ACP cost -share is involved). The pad dimensions and grades are the best estimate. The builder or contractor is responsible for final layout and design of the pads. SCS personnel will assist in a limited capacity, as its major concern is the proper design and construction cf the waste treatment lagoon. The actual amount of material reg.ired for pads and dam may vary from the estimates. The design will attempt to balance cuts a'h4 jiads as close as possible. If additional material is required after construction is complete on the lagoon, the contractor and owner will negotiate on the price and location of the borrow area. It should be noted that certification of the lagoon will de end upon all specifications being met. Importar_t items inc3ude length, width, depth, slopes, topsoil plaGemert, correct elevations (top, bottom, discharge pipes), and seeding. ARE CULTURAL RESOURCES EVIDENT?

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 apnlied 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 resist is 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 er<<.ironmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the wasce. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as then 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 Zen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to d drift and dcwnwind odor problems. To maximize the value of __utrients for crop Aroduction and to reduce the potential =0r -::�o_sl Lion, the w.C-e should be applied to a growing crop or n _ -:ore than 30 da-,�s prior to planti-:c. Soil incorporation o; 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 faci-lity.

Elay. - h SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAIN T E-NA-NI CE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage_ The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. T..e designed temporary storage cons_sts of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maxi:lum elevation is determined in- each design to begi*: pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building (s) . If the outlet pipe is -1-lot i nstalledf at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin_ An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two eievatl ons for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without run-off, or leaching. Land application of waste water is r=cognized as an acceptable method- -of disposal. Methods of application include solid Set, ce~ter pivot, ns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when apn_ying waste to preven- damage to crops . The following items are to be carried out: 1 It is stronVly recommended that the treatment lacxoon be Are- cnarced to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors dur?ng Start-up_ Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When nrecharg'ng ,s complete, -1usn buildin s with recycled lagoon- 1cuid. Fresh water should not use d sed for flushing after initial fi_ 11-ng. 2. The attached waste uti 1 i Zat i pn plan, Shale be followed. Thi s clan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Eegin temporary storage pump-ou- o` the lagoon when Fluid level reaches the elevat=on 51.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump- ou- when the fluid level reaches ele-zat i on 49.4 This temporary s-^_aae, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, con_ains 292295 cubic feet or 2=1-1558 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 g The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is o.ie (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. vegetation should be fertilized'as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. G_ Renair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. B. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adJjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content •=2.na �lacement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner matey=a_ shall not be less than opt_mum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates t: the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper com-paction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and combacted to at least 90 percent or the maximum ASTM D598 Dry Unit Wei�ht of the liner material. when smooth or hard, the previous lift shad be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other thanthe type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. ;he sequence of ecuipme:'it use and t_-e routin of eCL:i pner_t in an estab- blished pattern helps assure unifo_ity in the whore placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge cf waste outlet of pes . This can be done by Lasing some type of energy disci pator (rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste -pines. Alternatives to soil liners are svr L_^etic liners and bentori to sealant .
