The waste from- your animal -facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the - animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally�safe manner:'
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to av oia'drift--an'd
C_-_
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 doi�ancy,'-
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 .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2480 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 4712 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2480 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 5704 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.

Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or -
winter annuals follow summer annuals.
In interplanted fields (i.e. - small grain, etc, interseeded
in bermudagrass), forage must he removed through grazing,
hay and/or. silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed
when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Ca�tle
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.

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 917.6 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4588
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 15.2933333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 3G.704 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

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 180.00 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 structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 2S 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.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment, Discharge rates and application rates
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular,
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use,
nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated -scale from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction
of pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both
sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all
nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. Ibis means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter 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.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm ig a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer 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 areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes --- look for.,
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes
Lagoon surface --- look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment —look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability ---slumps or bulges.
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. if
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by tl�e
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of:
I . 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 that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon isat its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps,
Sur -face water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and park�ing 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
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
I . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
Identified problems should be corrected promptly. it is advisable to inspect 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 after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall 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
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
I Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to. avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. 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. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of I pound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
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, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.
proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing 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 properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into -liquid sludge applicator; haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; 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 with 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 will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the 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 as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it should probably be 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 soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
0
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concem of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon f�Lilures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure --- an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid Ievels--high levels are a safety risk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity --- protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.

Service personnel are in agreement as to how the waste lagoon
is to be constructed. SCS personnel will meet with all
concerned parties and walk over the site to explain all flags
and markings. It is important that everyone understand what is
expected so that final construction meets plans and
specification and the job can be certified -for payment (if ACP
cost sharing is involved).
The pad dimensions and grades are ±he 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 estiM2teS. 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 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.

Dear Hervie Honeycutt:
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 April 25, 1999:
I Lagoon capacity documentation (design, as -built calculations, etc-) provided with the permit application is
unclear. For instance, one calculation made on 5/10/90 shows a total available lagoon storage of 228, 000
cu. ft. for a 1240 topping operation. Please clarify if both the lagoons were built at the same time and have
the same dimensions, If not, please submit calculations for the second [agoon.
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 address below. The information requested by this
letter, must be submitted on or before April 25, 1999 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in accordance
with 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.
Please be advised that operation of the subject animal waste management system without a valid permit is a
violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and will subject you to the enforcement authority of the
Environmental Management Commission.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at (919) 733-5083, extension '363.

Honeycutt Farms
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson County
On June 11, 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 24, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Ccrtificate"of Coverage (COC) issued to Hervic
S. Honeycutt, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS820276 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 Honeycutt Farms, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 2480 Feeder to Finish 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 unneccessary,
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 State General Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.

of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will n6ea f6ii-ive 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 cur -rent NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .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.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. ne plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount ' of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual fim previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen fmm each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Irrigation Application Factors foreach field in this plan are shovm in the following table. Infilurtion rate varies
with soils. If applying waste nutrients thmugh an irrigation syswn you must apply at a rate that will not result in
nmoff. This table provides the maxirnum application rate per hour that tnay be applied to each field selected to
receive wastewater. It also lists the ma)dmurn application aniount that each fieJd may receive in any one application
event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate ofthe number of acres needed for
'Alo sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations foreach source, the numberofanimals in the fitcility and theplant available nitrogen application
rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this matefial must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronornic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be I infiting. Since
nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge appticaticm If this is notpossible, care should betaken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts ofoopper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water
moving to su=ns and lala:s, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also
be a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage
qksih, capacity available at the end of each month ofthe plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days nfinus the number of days of net storage volurne accurnulated. The start
date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in
the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal tD zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity ofthe facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage
capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrieras that have not yet accumulati-,&
If available storage capacity is negati ve� the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design
st,orage volume of the structure. Either of these situatiom indicales that the phumed application interval
in the waste utilization plan is irmonsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.
