Sampson County
The Division of Water Resources (Division) received your sludge survey information on January
9, 2015. With the survey results, Jonathan Miller from Agriment Services Inc, on your behalf
requested an extension of the sludge survey requirement for the two lagoons at the Sycamore
Station Nursery facility. Due to the amount of treatment volume available, the Division agrees
that a sludge survey is not needed until 2016 for your lagoons.
The next sludge survey for this lagoon should be performed before December 31, 2016. Please
call me at [phone] if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate 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. T6 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 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission,

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.
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.
Page 5

Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen,
Page 5

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 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

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
17 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.
18 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.
19 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 animal waste
during the crop season.
20 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.
21 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.
22 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Subject: Sludge Compliance Requirement Change
Dear Permittee:
In accordance with Condition II1.19 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.

Division of Water Quality
The Division of Water Quality (Division) received your sludge survey information on November 3, 2006.
The sludge surveys were conducted on May 17, 2006. With your results, you noted that there are
insufficient liquid treatment volumes in Lagoons 2246 and 2247. The thickness of the liquid treatment
zone in 2246 is 2.377 feet and 1.783 feet in 2247; both below the four (4) foot minimum.
Your Swine Waste Management System General Permit Number AWG100000, Condition III.19.
specifies that within ninety (90) days of the determination of inadequate treatment volume, a sludge
removal or management plan prepared by a technical specialist must be submitted to the Division. The
plan shall describe removal and waste utilization procedures to be used.
Please submit the aforementioned plan within 90 days of the receipt of this letter.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at [phone].

Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson County
On June H , 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your application received on February 12, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to James
Hines, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG 100000. The issuance of this COC
supersedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS820248 which expires October 1, 2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Sycamore Station Nursery, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity
of no greater than an annual average of 5200 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as
specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to
Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
unnecessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced
by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC,
you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed S

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 214 .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Fayetteville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Water Quality Staff may he reached at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact Duane Leith at [phone].

Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS820248
Sycamore Station Nursery
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson County
In accordance with your permit application received on May 11, 2000, we are forwarding this Certificate
of Coverage (COC) issued to James Hines, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste
collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit
AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to,
the management of animal waste from the Sycamore Station Nursery, located in Sampson County, with
an animal capacity of no greater than 5,200 Wean to Feeder animals and the application to land as
specified in your most current Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003. Pursuant to this COC, you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any increase in waste production greater than
the certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
The facility's CAWMP met all requirements in place at the time of certification. However, it appears
that the irrigation system on site may not adequately cover all acreage listed in the Waste Utilization
Plan. The owner should begin to address this inconsistency as soon as possible.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate 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
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner

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, helshe 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.
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.
Page 5

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 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.

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 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.

(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate 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
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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.
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 19 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_
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.
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
minimur-M 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.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
Clearing:
All trees and brush shall be removed from the construction area
before any excavating or fill is started. Stumps wili.be removed
within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas
and all excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceeding one (1)
inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1)
foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris_ The
foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly before placement of
embankment material.
Cut—off Trench:
---------------
A cut—off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in
the plans.
Construction:
Construction of excavated and earthfiII areas shall be performed to
the neat lines and grades as planned. Deviations from this will
require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall not be placed
in standing water and reasonable compaction of the fills shall be
performed by the construction equipment or sheeps—foot roller during
placement. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using
the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall
include ten (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage,
when areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will need to
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and
compacted with a suitable material (ie—CL,SC,CH). Refer to the soils
investigation information in the plans for special considerations.
Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
Vegetation:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be
seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after
construction.

OPERATIbN AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions,flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre —
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
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.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B)
before land application.
3. Begin pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 51.0 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump—out•when
the fluid level reaches elevation 49.0 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inch per hour.
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.
6. Repair 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.
S. 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.

SHEET 1 OF 2
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
160 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.
The designed temporary storage consists 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 maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed 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
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivct, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
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 precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 94.5 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 92.7 . -This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 33223 cubic feet or
248509 gallons.

4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (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.
S. Repair 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.
6. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent 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 shal'1 be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
9. The Glean 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.

E. Leakage from base or sidewai] of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to
flowing leaks —possible actions:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage,
put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon
bottom as soon as possible.
2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off of the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours. call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality)
regional office; Phone 6p&SAfter hours, emergency number: 1-800-858-0368.

Permit Application Comments/Requests
It is unclear whether the small grain (grazed) listed in the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) is an overseed or
an independent crop. Either way, there must be a 25% reduction in yield for grazed land. Please amend the
WUP to show this reduction, or if it is already accounted for, indicate such somewhere in the plan.
It is also indicated that millet will be grazed. The same 25% reduction applies as stated above.
There is the option of planting soybeans on any listed field in the WUP. Note that when utilizing soybeans
in a crop rotation, residual nitrogen should be accounted for in the next crop. Please add to the WUP
narrative that a reduction in PAN to account for soil residual nitrogen will be taken in the following crop
whenever soybeans are planted.
There was a condition on the farm certification (dated 1995) that stated the irrigation system was to be
lop,
installed and/or evaluated by 7-1-97. The Division was to be notified when the condition was met. Our
records do not indicate that such notification was made. Please complete and return the attached form to
indicate verification that the system was installed and/or evaluated_
If the above irrigation system was designed after 9-1-96, please submit the complete design including a map
showing the travel lanes and respective acreage. The WUP and field map submitted may not account for
the irrigated acreage. If this is the case, a revised WUP and field map will be necessary. Careful attention
should be taken when determining the proper crops and application windows to ensure proper nitrogen
utilization due to any reduced acreage.
