Warsaw, NC 28398 (910) 533 3520 Feeder - Finish 7344 P F If$ - E` I I /-IF' E VAR �5 200 OENR - FAYETftf REGIOML OFFa The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified Tate to prevent pollution of surface 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. 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, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. 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 DEM regulations. 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 applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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 waste being stored in your structure exceed Elevation *see lagoon design. Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or Soil and Water Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. Narrative of operation: Acres shown are irrigated acres. The plan is written as a 2 year rotation of corn, wheat, and soybeans. It is suggested that the grower split the land evenly between corn and soybeans. Page 4 0 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 waste, he/she shall provide a copy 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 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, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application 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 that is eroding at 5 or more 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 Strip), Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application, Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to cons ervation'ti [led 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 or flies. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. Page 5 M, REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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 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 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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 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 discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands provided they 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 courses 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. Page 6 MM 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 a ' nd 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 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 element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) 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.

A scale drawing of the proposed irrigation system which includes hydrant locations, pipelines, thrust block locations and buffer areas where applicable. 2. Assumptions and computations for determining total dynamic head and horsepower requirements- 3- Computations used to determine all mainline and lateral pipe sizes. 4- Sources and/or calculations used for determining application rates- 5. Computations used to determine the size of thrust blocks and illustrations of all thrust block configurations required in the system 6. Manufacturer's specifications for the irrigation pump, traveler and sprinkler(s). 7. Manufacturer's specifications for the irrigation pipe and/or USDA-NRCS s6ndard for IRRIGAT10N WATER CONVEYANCE. 8. The information required by this form are the niinimurn requirements. It is the responsibility of the designer to consider all relevant factors at a particular site and address them as appropriate. 9. Irrigation pipes should not be installed in lagoon or storage pond embankments without the approval of the designer. NOTE: A buffer strip of 50' or wider must be maintained between the limits of the irrigation system and all perennial streams and surface waters per NC Statutes. Sheet6 Narrative of Irrigation System Operation This irrigation system has been designed to add 5 additional hydrants to the existing system for this farm. Hydrants will be installed in fields 6, 10, and 11 . In addition, pulls A zin� B in field 7 were shortened from their original length due to the ditch location to their East. For the pulls mentioned above, the acreage has been calculated using new and expanding farm criteria. All other pulls, which will not be modified, have acreages calculated using existing 'wetted' acreage criteria. Field 10 requires SB515 setbacks.

There are a number of machines that can be used to prepare the trench for PVC plastic pipe. Soil types, moisture content, depth of trench required and type and diameter of pipe must be considered. Generally chain trenches', wheel trenches, -backho.es, or vibratinq plows will be " usea for trench preparation. The vibrati'ng plow can only be used for solvent weld PVC pipe and generally is limited to the smaller diameter of pipe. Under most conditions the chain- trencher or wheel trencher will be faster than the backhoe. Where wide trenches for large pipe are required, the backhoe will be most satisfactory. If soil conditions permit, long stretches of open trench will expedite pipe insta)lation. However, if rain is forecast the pipe should be installed and the trench backfilled. To avoid sharp turns in the line at obstructions, trenches should be. curved within limits of curvature of the pipe. -7- INSTALLATION h Jiarnond Agricultural PVC Pipe should be assembled and installed with uniform and continuous support from a firm base in accordance with the installation procedures provided in ASTM D2321, and the Installation Guidefor PVC Water Pipe (a "pocket -sized" edition is available from your representative or from Diamond Plastics Corporation,) Embedment materials are to be in accordance with soil classifications listed under Unified Soil Classification System, ASTM D2487.and ASTM D2488. To assemble, clean mating sur-fiaces of the bell, spigot, and gasket. Apply gasket lubricant (furnished by Diamond Plastics Corporation) to tile entire spigot end up to the reference mark. Also, apply lubricant to the contact surface of the gasket, Willi the pipe in straight alignment, push the spigot into the bell up to the insertion line. If a pry bar is used to qply force, the pipe should be proiecled by placing a board between the bar and the pipe, If norrhal force does not complete the joint, disassemble the joint and examine (he parts (o make ce,Jan they are free of obstructions. Visually inspect tile compleied joint to insure (he gasket has not been dislodged. Table 5.

The minimum cover for polyethylene pipe is 6 in but may be reduced to 2 in where conditions warrant. The minimum cover for PVC pipe in cranberry bogs, where the pipe is to be protected from freezing alter winter flooding, shall be 12 in, If the winter flood equals or exceeds 12 in. Where the winter flood is less than 12 in, the top of the pipe shall be at least 24 In below the water surface. Solvent -welded joints shall be used at all connections of PVC pipe where peat and muck exist in their normal layered pattern. Rubber gasket Joints may be used toliowing normal bedding proce• dures where coarse sand or cement layers exist. At low places on the ground surface, extra fill may be placed over the pipeline to provide the minimum depth of cover. The top width of the tilt shall then be no less than 10 ft and the side slopes no steeper than 6:1. if extra protec- tion is needed at vehicle crossings, encasement pipe.or other approved methods may be used. Trench construction. The trench at any point below the top of the pipe shall be only wide enough to permit the pipe to be easily placed and joined and to allow the initial backfiil material to be uniformly placed under,the haunches and along the side of the pipe. The maximum trench width shall be 36 in greater than the diameter of the pipe. It the trench is precision excavated and has a semicircular bottom that closely fits the pipe, the width shall not exceed the outside diameter of -the pipe by more that 10 percent. The trench bottom shall be uniform so that the pipe lies on the bottom without bridging. Clods, rocks, and uneven spots that can damage the pipe or cause nonuniform sup- port shall be removed. If rocks, boulders, or any other material that can damage the pipe are encountered, the trench bottom shall be under- cut a minimum of 4 in below final grade and filled with bed. ding material consisting of sand or compacted fine-grained Soils. Pipelines having a diameter of 'h through 21,6 in that are to be placed in areas not subject to vehicular loads and in soils that do not crack appreciably when dry may be placed by using "plow -in" equipment instead of conventional trenching. Provisions shall be made to insure safe working condi- tions where unstable soil, trench depth, or other conditions can be hazardous to personnel working in the trench. Placement. Care shall be taken to prevent permanent dis- tortion and damage when handling the pipe during unusu- ally warm or cold weather, The pipe shall be allowed to come within a few degrees of the temperature it will have attar It is completely covered before placing the backifll, other than that needed for shading, or before connecting the pipe to other facilities. The pipe shall be uniformly and continuously supported over its entire length on firm stable material. Blocking or mounding shall not be used to bring the pipe to final grade. For pipe with bell Joints, bell holes shall be excavated in the bedding material, as needed, to allow for unobstructed assembly of the joint and to permit the body of the pipe to be in contact with the bedding material throughout its length. Joints and connections. All joints and connections shall be designed and constructed to withstand the design maxi- mum working pressure for the pipeline without leakage and to leave the Inside of the line free of any obstruction that may tend to reduce its capacity below design requirements. All fittings, such as couplings, reducers, bends, toes, and crosses, shall be installed according to the recor -manda- tions of the pipe manufacturer. Fittings made of steel or other metals susceptible to cor- roslon shall be adequately protected by being wrapped with plastic tape or by being coated with a substance that has hibh corrosion -preventative qualities. If plastic tape is used, all surfaces shall be thoroughly cleaned and coated with a primer compatible with the tape before wrapping. Threat blocks. Thrust blocks must be formed against a solid hand -excavated trench wall undamaged by mechani- cal equipment. They shall be constructed of concrete, and the space between the pipe and trench wall shall be filled to the height of the outside diameter of the pipe or as spec- ified by the manufacturer. Testing. The pipeline shall be tested for pressure strength, leakage, and proper functioning. The tests may be per- formed before backfilling or anytime after the pipeline is ready for service. SCS, January 1989 Irrigation Water Conveyance 430-DD-5 Tests for pressure strength and leaks shall be accom- plished by inspecting the pipeline and appurtenances while the maximum working pressure is maintained and all joints and connections are uncovered, or by observing normal operation of the pipeline after it is put into service. Partial backfIlls needed to hold the pipe in place during testing shall be placed as specified in "Initial Backfill." Any leaks shall be repaired and the system retested. The pipeline shall be lasted to insure that it functions properly at design capacity. At or below design capacity there shall be no objectionable flow conditions. Objecilona- ble flow conditions shalt include water hammer. continuing unsteady delivery of water, damage to the pipeline, or detri- mental discharge from control valves. Initial backlill. Hand, mechanical, or water packing meth- ods may be used. The initial backfill material shall be soil or sand that is free from rocks or stones larger than 1 in. in diameter. At the time of placement, the moisture content of the material shall be such that the required degree of compaction can be obtained with the backlill method to be used. The initial backfill material shall be placed so that the pipe will not be displaced, excessively deformed. or damaged. II backfilling is done by hand or mechanical means, the initial fill shall be compacted firmly around and above the pipe as required to provide adequate lateral support to the pipe. It the water packing method is used, the pipeline first shall be filled with water. The initial backfill before wetting shall be of sufficient depth to insure complete coverage of the pipe attar consolidation. Water packing is accomplished by adding enough water to diked reaches of the trench to thoroughly saturate the initial backfill without excessive pooling. After the backfill. is saturated, the pipeline shall remain lull until after the final backfill is made, The wetted fill shall be allowed to dry until firm before beginning the final backlill. Final backfilt. The final backfitl matbrial shall be free of large rocks, frozen clods, and other debris greater than 3 In. in diameter. The material shall be placed and spread in approximately uniform layers so that there will be no unfilled spaces in the backfill and the backfill will be level with the natural ground or at the design grade required to provide the minimum depth of cover after settlement. Poll- ing equipment shall not be used to consolidate the final backfill until the specified minimum depth of cover has been placed. All special backfilling requirements of the pipe manufac• turer shall be met. Basis of acceptance. The acceptability of the pipeline shall be determined by inspections to check compliance with all the provisions of this standard with respect to the design of the line, the pipe and pipe marking, the appune- nances. and the minimum installation requirements. 5 Certiflcatlons and guarantee. If requested by the state conservation engineer. a qualified testing laboratory must certify with supporting test results that the pipe meets the requirements specified in this standard. The seal of approval of a recognized laboratory on pipe bearing one of the ASTM designations listed In this standard may be accepted for this certification. The installing contractor shall certify that his or her instal- lation complies with the requirements of this standard.

Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment HARD HOSE AND CABLE TOW TR"ELER IRRIGATION SYSTEM General Guidelines Land application equipment used on animal production farms must be field calibrated or evaluated in accordance with existing design charts and tables according to state rules that went into effect September 1, 1996. 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 5tep-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 sprinkJer 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 pre55ure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. Field calibration helps ensure that nutri- ents from animal waste are applied uniformly and at properrates. 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- tton 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 condition5, 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- Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment sate for the declining application along the outer perimeter, When operated at th ' e design pressure, this overlap results in acceptable application uniformity. When operated improperly, well -designed systems will not provide acceptable application unlformity� 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 all. When applying wastewater high In nutrients, it is important to determine the application uniformity. CollectioH 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� talners should be the same size and shape to simplify application depth computations. All collection containers should be set up at the same height relative t ' o 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 onewetted 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 values recorded immediately after each setup. Calibration Set ' up 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 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 perform ' ed 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.

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) U, Average depth (#9) - X 100 15. Interpret the calibration results. The higher the Index value, the more uniform the application. An index of 1. 00 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 unlformi�y 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 adjU5tMents are required.

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. 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 uttilim. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, lea0iing potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holdiag'capacities.. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre.per ,year. Do not apply waste on saturated sods, when it is raining, or when the surface is -frozen. Either of these conditions may result in ranoffto'surface waters which is not . :allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be consideredto 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 applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or di-Jdng will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 2R0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission a;-. Li . ... A! 9'', W.
