Clinton NC 26328
phone --;-----:910-594-0171
Type Operation ------------- :Feed -Fin
Number of Animal----------- : 2940
Storage Structure ----------:Anaerobic Lagoon
Method of application ------:Irrigation
Amount of waste produced per year ---------------.
Amount of plant available N (PAN) produced/year-:
5586 tons/year
6762 lba./year
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 use
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 testa 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 shell not be applied to land eroding at more
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
in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWO
regulations.
5. `Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild 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 dagriCE1VEDIDENRIDWO
prior to planting a crop'or forages breaking dormancy. Aquifer Protection Section
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and MAR 27 2009
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. In some cases you may went to have

A
Page 2
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 the 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.
YOUR WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:

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
bermudagraaa), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or
silage. -Where grazing, planta 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 grain
etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised
not,to to let small grain to 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 lass 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 times during the
season, depending on 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.
Sermudegrasa should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two
inches before drilling for best results.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is
recommended.
Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers , filter strips along ditches, odd
areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization
of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION;
The waste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic
land:'application of sludge at agronomic rates. 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 1058 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately
5252 lbs. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to
hybrid bermudegraas hayland at the rate of 300 lba. of nitrogen
per acre, you will need 18 acres of land. If you apply the
sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lba. of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 42 acres of land. Please be•aware that these are
only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil
types, realistic yields, and application methods.

Page 4
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 tables. Failure to apply the
recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may
make this plan invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing
application rates and amounts.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Rye must be planted by October 15 in all zones each year. The last
application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior
to August 31. An application of 50 lbs./acre of PAN may be applied

The waste -,.I rom 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 use
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 enaure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
manner:
1. Always apply waste based an 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 not be applied to lend eroding at more
then 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
in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWO
-'regulations.
5.- Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild 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.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the -waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have

' ge 2
plant analysis made, which ccW be

Page 3
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
bermudagrasm), 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 planta
are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain
etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised
not,to to let small grain to 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
bermudagrasa. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and
leas 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 times during the
season, depending on 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.
Bermudagrasa should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two
inches before drilling for beat results.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is
recommended.
Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers , filter strips along ditches, odd
areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the field listed may, and moat likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization
of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic
land''application of sludge at agronomic rates. 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 1058 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately
5292 lbs. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to
hybrid bermudagraas hayland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen
per acre, you will need 18 acres of land. If you apply the
sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 42 acres of land. Please be aware that these are
only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil
types, realistic yields, and application methods.

Page 4
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 tables. Failure to apply the
recommended'retes and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may
make this plan invalid.

application rates and amounts.

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 instances should the volume of the waste be stared
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. Failure to
apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the
tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste
analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste
per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the
• waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN AGREEMENT
Name of Farm: Dan C Bowden
Owner/Manager Agreement
I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications
and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the
approved animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above. I
(we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of
the waste treatment and storage system or construction of new
facilities --will require a new certification to be submitted to the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) before the new
animals are stocked. I (we) also understand that there must be no
discharge of animal waste from this system to the surface waters
of the state from a storm event less severe than the 25 -year, 24-
hour storm. The approved plan will be filed on-site at the farm
office and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation
District and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. 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 hire/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)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the 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.
Page: 8

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly inton 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.
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.
Page: 9

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 preplant 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
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when thes
metals 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 requlations.

REG. OFFICE
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 not 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 DEM regulations.
Page: 1

' ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
. 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.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management 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 .4217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2940 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 5586 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2940 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 6762 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time
and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded
in bermudagrass), 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 grain, etc, is to be removed
for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small
grain to 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 times during the season, depending on
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 mowed to a
height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
*** This number must be less than or equal to 0 in order to fully
utilize the animal waste N produced.
Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the
acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. 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 1087.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 5439
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 18.13 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43.512 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
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 Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

. 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 180.00 days of temporary storage and the
temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00
months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in
your stricture 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 Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED -SPECIFICATIONS
1. 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)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the 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.
Page: 8

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly inton 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.
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 preplant 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

Please review the attached plan and specifications carefully.
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 tl�e waste lagoon
is to be constructed. SCS personnel will meet with all
concerned parties and walk over the site to explain all flags
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 of the waste treatment lagoon.
The actual amount of material required for pads and dam may
vary from the estimates. The design will attempt to balance
cuts and fills 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 depend
upon all specifications being met. Important items include
length, width, depth, slopes, topsoil placement, correct
elevations (top, bottom, discharge pipes), and seeding.

Animal Waste Operation
Sampson County
Dear Dan C. Bowden:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary engineering review of the subject
application. Additional information is required before we can continue our review. Please address the
following by December 31, 1998:
1. The irrigation parameters listed in your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) exceed current
_ recommendations. Irrigation events are to be listed in the WUP as the maximum
- - application allowable for that soil type from the time the pumps are turned on until the-- '
time they are shut off. The application events listed in your WUP appear to be out of the
Sprinkler Irrigation Guide. The Application Amounts listed in this guide have not been
adjusted for the application of animal waste. It is currently recommended that total
application amounts not exceed one inch in any application event for any soil type. If
your application rates need to be adjusted for the application of animal waste, please have
your Technical Specialist revise your WUP to reflect the appropriate application amount
per event. If the rates exceed the recommended one inch, please have your Technical
Specialist justify the increased application rate in the narrative of your WUP.
2. Please submit an Operation and Maintenance Plan.
3. Please submit an Insect Control Checklist.
4. Best Management Practices (BMPs) that are to be implemented at this facility should be
identified (check the appropriate BMPs) on the Insect Control Checklist and on the Odor
Control Checklist and the Mortality Management Checklist. The Odor Control Checklist
and Mortality Management Checklist submitted were not filled out.
5. It was noted during an inspection dated September 16, 1998, that waste was being applied
to a field not listed in your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP). Please review your WUP and
_ have this field added to your WUP if you feel that you may apply animal waste to it -in -the.
the
future. =
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical
specialist. Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested ;
information. All information should be signed, sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the

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 nutrienta-in the animal waste shouldbe use
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 uee& 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 not be applied to land eroding at more
than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tone per acre annually, but leas than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
&trips 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
in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWO
regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild 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 crap or. forages- breaking -dormancy'.
Injecting the waste or diaking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor prQblema
'This plan is ba&ed'on the waste application method shown above. If
you -choose to change methods in 'the future, you need to revise.
this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are
nothe same:
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for thia.•type of facility. Acreage
requi-rementa should 'be 'baaed_ ori .the 'weate analysis' report 'from
your.waste management facility. In some cases you,may.want to have

Pace 2
plat-►t.analyaig„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 the.crop type. Limo must be applied -to maintain pH...in the
optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meeta tha
requirements for compliance with 15A'NCAC'2H .02.17 adopted by the
Enviranmental.Manegement Commission.

not to to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in
the aeason. (i.e. -April-or May). She -ding• may result if small- grain•
geta too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
bermudagraae. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and
less nitrogen being utilized. Father 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 times during the
season, depending an 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. .
$ermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two
inches before drilling for beat results..
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals
under stressed canditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in
livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is
recommended.
Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres
excluding required buffers , filter strips along ditches, odd
areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached. map showing the fields to be used for -the utilization
of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic
land application of .sludge at agronomic rates. 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 1058 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year, in the sludge.
If you remoe
ve sludge-every-5,yars, you.will have.approximately
•5292 .lba. , .cif PAN to utilize. saauming• you apply.. this PAN to . .
hybrid bermudagr'ass' hayland .at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen
per acre, you Will need 18 acres of land. If•you apply the
sludge to corn at.the rate of 125 lb -a. of.►iitrogen per acre, you
will need 42 acrea of land. Please be aware that these are
only eatima-tea of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by •25.% depending an your sludge waste analya,ia, soil
types, 'rea.l istic ° yields-,.. and appl icatio'n method, t..

APPLICATION OF WASTE EKY " 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 rete is limited by initial soil_ moisture con.tent;.`
soil structure, soil texture, water droplet sire, and organic
solids. The application amount should not exceed the available
Water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should tt•'e..plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen
needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation -'is the.method of land application for thia-
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 tables. Failure to apply the
recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may
make -this plan invalid.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
groper lagoon liquid management shouid be a year-round priority. It is especia:ly
irnportait to manage le'v'els 5o that, you do not have problems during extended rainy and
\`Vet periods.
MGxir^urrl storage capoLity should be available In the lagoon for par lads when the
receiving crop i5 dormant.(such as wintertime for berimudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertirne. This means
that, at the first signs of plant grcv,vth in the later winterlearly spring, irrigation accordin; to
a r'arm waste manage�^�e"t plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space avallabie in the lagoon for future wet
Periods. In tr.e late summer/early tali the lagoon should be purnped down to the !ow
marker (see Figure 2-1) to aliow for \`/inter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
'4 acting until the 12goon has reached its imiaximurn storage capac`ry before start no to
irrigate does not leave room': for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Ove -flow from the lagoon for any rea_on except a 25 -year, 24. -hour storm is a violation of
Scare law and subject to penalty action.
Ti,e routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or corrsrnon bermudagrass are the rnost common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each yaar, it needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of -erti lizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding ares
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
3rusih and trees on the embankment must be contrclied. This may be
done by mo titin;, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. Ti is should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
N-07- E. If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the f Herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could 1"la-m the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the wane.
Maintenance Inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major ralnraii and story-, events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, thle following:
`J+Jaste Inlet pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pi;Dec---look for:
1 . separation or joints
Z. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or n?inerals
overall conditicri or pipes

Lagoon) bUrface--lcok Ior:
1. undesirable vegetative gro�,vth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment --look For:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2 side slope stability—slumps or 5ui—s
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
.4, erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a resit of wave action
5. ' rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave au:io:r caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon darn.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential darnage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles ire the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave irnpacts.
,;nv of these features Could lead to e,o;ion and weakening or tine darn, if your Iagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert, famii);ar with design 2n-4
co^;L'uctio^ ofwaste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary rix if there :5 a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon darn with heavy ecuipmnt is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not oe conduced unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps --check for proper operation of:
1, recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration,- may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so ,hat you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nezrly tui! Iagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or bcrrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider rnainMriing ar: inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carr;- al? surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(wzslning) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for :he folloµring:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can he reduced by:

proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriateiy designed basin, or
- mir;im+zing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to property use the nUtrient5.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
mix the sludge and iagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
pump th.-ough large-bore sprinkler irriga`.lon systarr, onto nsarby
and soli in.-orporat4.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby crop:and' or
for2geland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquld sludge applicator;
and spread onto cropland
or �orageland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon,; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread wit^ manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge Vii•iil cvncain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as ,veli as any previous waste applications to that fie!c and cr on
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the lines to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. I' you See soil material or the Synthetic Ener Mate� ill being diStLlrbed, yQu Should
stop tne activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury, if the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon a: -
possible.
-possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a nnuch higher phosphorus and heavy rnetal content
than liquid, Because of this i; should probably de applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soli -test phospnores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus, �+.s witht other,
wastes, always have your lagoon smudge analyzed for its nutrient vague.
Tr<e appiicat,on of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste app;icatior; site.
Extra precaution should he used to observe the wind direction and other r_ondit;ons which
could increase the concern of neighbors.

identified problems should by corrected promptly. It is advisable to i^spect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. if technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours atter the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give ,you an idea of how much your la400n level v.-1'11 rise with a certain rainfali amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. if your lagoon rises excessively, you may .
rave an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1 . Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
sur aces to avoid erosion.
2, Fill new lagoon design treeatme^t volume a' least hair full of water before
waste loading begins, tasr.ing*care not to erode iinir,g or bank slopes.
.3. Drainpipes into.the lagoon 5hoald have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottcm of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means or slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining. ;
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacteria! establishment (due to warmer weather).
S
S. it is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. lr the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lire at the rate of I pound per ' J00 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and M.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling.. arc excessive odor signals in.adequate
biological activity. Consu?tatien .vith a technical specia ist is recornmended
if these conditions occur for prolonged' periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, t,' -,e better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems t^at wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Fit recharge Systems, in which ene or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.
