Animal Waste Management System
Sampson County
Dear William Keith Naylor:
In accordance with your application received on 13-Feb-07, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to William Keith Naylor, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the KBA Naylor Farm, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 2500 Boar/Stud: 0
Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0
Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0
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 and replaces the NPDES
COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue
conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension
in Condition 1II.19 does not apply.
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. 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.

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 02T .0111(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.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall
continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS
standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.
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 fled 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
Aquifer Protection staff may be reached at 910-433-3300. If you need additional information concerning;

Dear Mr. Simmons:
The Division's records show that a completed PLAT Form has NOT been submitted for this facility. If
our records are in error please resubmit the completed PLAT Form for this farm.
There is a condition in your Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit addressing the
completion of the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool for your animal feeding operation upon
notification by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA282335 Condition 1.6 states:
"If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government
establishes Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a
facility operating under this permit, the Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility
and its CAWMP under the requirements of the Phosphorus loss standards to determine the
facility's ability to comply with the standards. This evaluation must be documented on
forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to the Division. This
evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving
notification from the Division.
The method of evaluation is the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) developed by NC State
University and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. PLAT addresses four potential loss
pathways: leaching, erosion, runoff and direct movement of waste over the surface. Each field must be
individually evaluated and rated as either low, medium, high or very high according to its Phosphorus
loss potential. The ratings for your farm must be reported to DWQ using the attached certification form.
The PLAT forms must be kept as records on your farm for future reference.
The Division's records show that you received the notification to conduct PLAT on April 18, 2006, To
avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, The Division of Water Quality requests
that the following items be addressed:
1. Submit justification for not responding within 180 days of receipt of the PLAT notification
letter.

Dear Mr. Simmons:
The Division's records show that a completed PLAT Form has NOT been submitted for this facility. A
notification that this was required was mailed previously by certified mail with return receipt requested
but verification of receipt has not been documented. If our records are in error and this facility has
completed the PLAT assessment, please resubmit the completed PLAT Form for this farm.
There is a condition in your recently issued Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit
addressing phosphorous loss standards. The permit condition quoted below states that if the state or
federal government establishes phosphorus loss standards your facility must conduct an evaluation within
180 days. The Federal Natural Resources Conservation Service has now established this standard. A
computer -based program was developed to determine how much phosphorus was being lost from
different fields. Instructions on how to comply with this requirement are provided below.
In accordance with your NPDES Permit Number NCA282335 Condition I.6, your facility must now
conduct a Phosphorus Loss Assessment. Condition I.6 states:
"If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government establishes Phosphorus
loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a facility operating under this permit, the
Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility and its CAWMP under the requirements of the
Phosphorus loss standards to determine the facility's ability to comply with the standards. This
evaluation must be documented on forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to
the Division. This evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving
notification from the Division.
Once Phosphorus loss standards are established by the state or federal government that are applicable to
facilities applying to operate under this permit, no Certificate of Coverage will be issued to any new or
expanding facility to operate under this permit until the applicant demonstrates that the new or expanding
facility can comply with these standards."

NPDES permitted farms will need to have implemented a nutrient management plan which addresses
phosphorus loss before the next permit cycle beginning July, 2007, If you have any fields with a high or
very high rating, then your waste utilization plan will require modifications. The purpose of performing
PLAT this early is to allow adequate time for making waste plan modifications where necessary. With
the next permit, continued application of waste will not be allowed on fields with a very high rating. For
fields rated high, only the amount of phosphorus projected to be removed by the harvested crop. For low
and medium ratings, phosphorus will not be the limiting factor. Once the PLAT evaluation is completed
on your farm, you will know if you have fields that need further work. You are encouraged to begin
developing and implementing a strategy to deal with any issues as soon as possible.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statue or permitting requirement.

This letter is to notify you that the subject facility is in violation of its General Permit
NCA282335 Condition III.16.
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA282335 Condition III-16 states:
"Ail facilities, which are issued a COC to operate under this permit, shall conduct a
survey of the sludge accumulation in all lagoons within one (1) year of receiving the
COC and every year thereafter. This survey shall include but not be limited to a sketch
showing the depth of sludge in the various locations within each lagoon. This survey
shall be submitted as part of the facility's annual report in the year it was conducted.
This survey frequency may be reduced if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the
Division that the rate of sludge accumulation does not warrant an annual survey.
If the sludge accumulation is such that it is greater than the volume for which the lagoon
was designed or reduces the minimum treatment volume to less than the volume for
which the lagoon was designed, a plan must be submitted to the Division's Central Office
within ninety (90) days of this determination which documents removal and waste
utilization procedures to be used."
Our records indicate that the Division has not received the sludge survey results for the year
2004 from your facility. The form was due March 1, 2005. To avoid possible enforcement
action for a violation of your permit, please submit the results within thirty (30) days to the

Waste Utilization Table
The Waste Utilization table shown on the following page(s) 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. The 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 or other
by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to
supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from 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, Animal operations that generate liquid waste and utilize waste storage facilities (lagoons or holding ponds) may apply more or
less waste in any given year than is annually generated by the facility. In order to determine whether the plan adequately utilizes the waste produced by the facility,
the storage capacity table included in this plan should be reviewed to ensure that the design capacity of the storage facility is not exceeded during the planning period.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being utilized.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to balance the
nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited
so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the nuanber of ages needed for
sludge utilization for the indicated accumulation period These estimates are based on average nitrogen
concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates
shown in the second column_
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic rmtter renaining after treatment and application of the effluent At
dean out, this mateial nuist be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, capper and zinc can also be limiting. Since
nutrient Levels are generally very high, application of sludge roust be carefully applied -
Sites rrRzt first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be
used for sludge application If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with
high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied On sites vulnerable to surface water
wing to strew and lakes, 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
capacity available at the end of each month of the plan Available storage capacity is calculated as the
design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accunnilated. 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 to zero.
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design
storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity,
this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet ac=mdated_ If available
storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the benign storage volume
of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste
utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Required Specifications For Anima! Waste Management
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 that 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 property
dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a
landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use
of the land for waste application- it is the responsibility of the owner of the
waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management
Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict:the rate of applications for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per
year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are
installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, MRCS Field Office
Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips.
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from
the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will
be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be
broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
-- -----------------------------------------------------
177821 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 12-07-2001 Specification Page 1 o

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 and flies.
S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events,
or when the soil 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. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted
crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading
rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take .up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy.
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 canal Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall
not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public
right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste 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 the fields have been approved as a
land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates
in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
-------------------------------------------------------- ---- -------------------- --
177821 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 12-07-2001 Specification Page 2 a

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 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
177821 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 12-07-2001 Specification Page 3 a

22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at
least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application
rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull 2, Pull 3, Pull 4, Pull 5
Corn: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leaching
In the Coastal Plain, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit.
Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations
should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when planting no -till.
Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When
planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants_ An accepted
practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the
remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 30-40 days after emergence. The
total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the
recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples
can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely
management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production.
The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull 1
Fescue: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Poorly Drained to Somewhat Poorly Drained_
Adaptation: Moderate to Marginal.
In the Coastal Plain, tall fescue can be planted Sept. 1 to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb_ 15 to Mar. 20. For
pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 lb/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed_ Use certified seed to
avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass_ Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in mixture
with clovers. Tall fescue will tolerate soil wetness but not flooding or prolonged saturation; use ladino
clover for mixtures on these soils_ Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium
recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only_ Do not apply N for
mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques_ Apply 150 to 200 lb/ac_ N to
pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb_ 1 to Mar_ 20 and
Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305
Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional ir6rination or consult
your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance_

The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull 2, Pull 3, Pull 4, Pull 5
Wheat: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, medium leachable
In the Coastal Plain, wheat should be planted from October 20-November 25_ Plant 22 seed/drill row foot
at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum
time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small
Grain Production Crude". Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till.
Adequate depth control when planting the wheat is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green
book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics
needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash
recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied
during the months of February -March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be
analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of
diseases, insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production.

The following crop note applies to field(s): Pull 2, Pull 3, Pull 4, Pull 5, Pull 6, Pull 7, Pull 8
Cereal/Annual Rye Overseeded — Grazed
CEREAL RYE
The cereal rye should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth_ The
most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagass sod.
If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short benmuda sod followed by alight cultivation
with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the
rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior to August
31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and
October 30. An additional 50 lbs.acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If rye growth is
harvested on time and does not significantly shade the bermuda, PAN rates for the subsequent bermuda
crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, which ever
comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading bermuda and reducing its yields. The
PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced by 25%_
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth_
The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall)
bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed
by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds'
should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds_ The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the
bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 501bs/acre of PAN may be applied between September 15
and October 30. An additional 50 lbs. acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional PAN
is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the Bermuda must be reduced by a corresponding
amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce Bermuda yields and
shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or April 7, which ever
comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To favor the production of
the Bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass canopy reaches 12 to 15
inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with annual ryegrass must be
reduced by 25%.

Double -Crop Soybeans, Coastal Plain: Mineral soil, medium leachable
Double -crop soybeans should be planted as early in June as possible with planting completed by July 4th_
When no -tilling soybeans in small grain straw, it is essential to manage the straw to achieve adequate plant
populations. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to
select a high }Melding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions_ Plant 24
seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10
seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least l 0% for no -till planting. Seeding depth
should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential_ Phosphorus and potash recommended.for the
soybeans can be applied to the wheat in the Fall. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally
grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at
planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to
monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential
for profitable double crop soybean production.

System Calibration
wA�
Nome pstt�itit�9
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 irr the:
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequerrriy the
application uniformity. For example, operating the- system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and' accelerates wear oTthe-
sprinkier 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
unifor ,,,ity.
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 or containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated scale ,"rom 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 container& should be located randomly
throughour the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transec-t perpendicular to the dire ion
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
nonuniformiry of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contacr your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

stare law and subiect to penalty action.
The routine :tnancz or a lagoon involves the following:
iL-iatrnancr of a ve¢e.`ve cover for the dam_

3r,.sh and trees on the e:nbanl=ent must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing stn Gvitrg, gra=Cr, chopping, or a combination of
thse v ctices. This should be done az feast once a year and
posefliy twice in years tha` weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growdt.
NOTE_ If vege--Hon is controlled by straying, the herbicide must not be allowed to eht=

Maintenance ins dons or the entire Iagoon should be made during the initial fining of
the7lagoon and atl�-t monthly and az=tc._;najorrainfali and sta�rn events. Items to be-
checired. should iacivae, as a minimum, the following=
Was- . inlet Pines, Recvc.i.ing Pipes, and Overflow Pipes ---loop tor_
1. separation of joints
? cnacls or breala
�. accumulation of salts or r,-dn
�. overall condition of nines

Lagoon surfac—c look for.
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debar
Embankment —look for.
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability—siumps or bulges
3. wet or damp aromas on the bark slope
erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result or wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to lin= damage due to wave- action caused by strong
winds_ These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalk, thereby wea}ming the lagoon dam_
A goad stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewaU, bares in thedagoorr may be
used to reduce; the wave im-Dacts.
Any of these feaaures could lead to erosion and weakcrting of the dam- If yourizocn has
any of th= features, you should tali an appropriam expert familiar with design and
constrtzcdon of w.-str lagoons. You may need to provide a tenmorary -fix if there is a threat
of a waste dschage. Howeve., a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical e-pe-t. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undermi ng with .aotenually serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommenced by an appropriate ty; -inical ezpert.
T_ansfer Pumps —check- for proper ope'tion of:
1. recycling pumas
2_ irrigation pumps
Check for ieass, loose fittings, and over411 puma one.'afion. An unusually loud or ceding
noise, or a I=ze amount of vibzadon, may indicat- that the pump is in need or re_oair or
realac..=ear-
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated fruently enough so that you.
are not cornple'.jy "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your -pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low l--vel. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required_ Having a nearly fall lagoon is not.the time
to think about swimming, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your,lagoon is full,
your neighbors lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spam
parts or pumps_
Surface water diversion features are desgaed to carry all surface
drainage waters (suet as zaair� runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parlang lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
tr�nmi or storage structures_ The only water that should be
taming from your -lagoon is that which comes from your -flushing
(wzshing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon- directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adeauaty vegetation
2. diversion caoaciry
.3. ridge bean height

Idettined problems should be corre`ted promptly. It is advisable to inspect your sysr:m
during or =medial-ly following a heavy zain. If t=hidcal assistance is needed to
rdettmtine Droper solutions, consult with appropriate cxpe—rts-
You should record the Ievel of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level zain 4 to 6 hours a:,-tr the rain (assumes theme is no pumping). This wM
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall �tnount

Startup:
1. 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 bemns, tang care not to erode lining or. bank- Ames.
3. Dminnipes into the lagoon should have a rlexibie pipe extender on the

4. When possible, bey loading new lagoons in the spring to maximizes
bac=nal establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is reaommend--that a new lagoon be steed with sludge from a heaithy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0-25 percent of the full.lagoon
iicuid volume. This seraiz should oc: our at lens: two weeks prior to the
addition of wasrewatar.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the Iagoon liquid -pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of I pound pe` 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 w2rm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a Iagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flash systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times dailv are
optim= for ==tment. Pit rechar?e systems, . which one or more buildings are ar is
ed-
a.ud recharged each day, also work well.

Practice water conservarion---minimize building water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and =illage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the boon
Maaa��eut*
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible rna kegs or stakes on the Iagoon bank to snow the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisso that'teraporary storage ture
will be maximi= for - summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide, maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The la--oon liouid level should never be closer than l foot to the lowest
Doini 01 the dam or embankment.
Do not numv the lagoon liouid level Iower that the a=anent storasre
leve? unless you are removing sludge. r
I.omm float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as fa_ away f orn the drainuiue inlets as vossible.
Prevent additions of beddLng materials, long -steamed forage or-vegem on,
molded feed, plastic
snges, or other foreign may -dais into the lagoon_
Frequently remove solids from catch basins aL end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edg*rs..
Do not allow treys or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankmcat
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it ells 50 percent of the perman=t storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and imulementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a.
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:

Proper lagoon sung,
mechanical solids smaration of flushed waste,
graviry settling of flushed wasr-- solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wasmg_ and spillage. - - -
I.agoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored Ion tern will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom a=licaror.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation sysr=:n onto nearby upland;
and sail incorporate. -
Dewater the upper par of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
iorageland; mix re.naining sludge; pump into squid sludge applica=.or. haul
and spread onto cropland or forageand; and soil incorporate.
De,,;,ater the upper nart of lagoon by i,=, gadon onto nearby cropland or
fotageiand; direcige siudge uom lagoon with d=�ine or sludge barge: berm
an area beside lagoon to re^.aive the sludge so t_ua liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater, haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropiand or fom-cmiand; and soil inco=rtt.:.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
consthmenLs just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain differ
nutrient and me --al valu s from the liquid. T"ne application of toe sludge to fields wiil-be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applicadons to that field and crop
reauiremenL Waste application rates will be discussed in derail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you musr also pay attention to the line: to prevent damage. Close
ammrion by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact If you sea soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the ac ivity 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.
SIudge removed from the lagoon has a much higher -ohosphori:s and -heavy metal contest
than liciuid_ Because of this it should probably be applied to land with Iow phosphorus
and metal levels.as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note brat if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphorus, it
should be =lied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other -
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed: for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge will inc--..se the amount of odor at the waste application site
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could inc:=se the concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
I agoon fail==-rmult in the unplanned discharge of wastewater ftm the smictur Toes
of failures include leai3ge through the bottorn or sides, ove topping, and breach of the
darn. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the =sponsibiiity for -
ensuring savc=e safety. Items which may lead to lagoon Li lures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure'~ --an example is the plat. rent of &mpe
in the dam without proper design and construction_ (Consult. an expert in
lagoon demgn before placing any pipers in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels -high levels -are a safety rill-
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Fxcess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity—pro"--t fmm inlet- pipe scouting, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below g< dN;rzt—x
table.
NOTE: fflagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving waterwill soon mouse
flies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly. cause a Iarge discharge

* 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

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.

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.

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 .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2500 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 4750 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER.YEAR
2500 hogs x 2.3.lbs PAN/hogs/year = 5750 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.

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 925 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4625
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 15.4166666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 37 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 255k 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 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 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.

danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject t-o
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.
S. 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.

Sys -c-ru 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 crvsta!Iizatio:-, of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces tine coverage diameter and zpplicatson
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 appliLation 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 scate from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform c-pvning and cross-section can be used providea
the l-quid 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. Fc r traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of
pull. Set out collection containers 23 feet apart along the transect on both sides. of
the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for a!l
nonunifo-mitt' of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
of ,more than 30 parcent is cause for concern;. Yo-a should con -,act, your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

OPERATION & MA1N'lLNANCE 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. This 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 surnmer/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 dose 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 stare ng 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 is 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 sails 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.
MUTE: It vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide r uist 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. acCurnulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

lagoon surface --look for:
t. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment ---look for:
I . 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 res::lt of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave a, -ion 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 sidewal1, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave irnpacts. -
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 fGrniliar 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 the
technical expen. 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:
7 . 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 arad 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 is at Its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the thine
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.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoffs 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
(gashing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridz,? berm height

Practice water conservation ---minimize building water,usage and
spillage from leaking waterers; broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spitlage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Management:
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the lull temporary storage level.
Piace visible markers or stakes on the !agoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the.maximurn liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fail to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level -should never be closer than i foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower,that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface ar:d as tar away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetaticrn, rodent, and varmint central near lagoon edges.
Do not akvr trees or iarge bushes to grow or. lagoon dam or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sli_dge storage capacity is
full or before it fills SD percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure p.an to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate ot" lagoon sludge builduP can he reruced by:

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 impJIler
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby crop!arid;
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
I
orageland; 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 darnage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. F you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately and riot resume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the litter is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon, has a much higher phosphorus and heavy meta! content
than liquid, Because of this it should probably he 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 rernoval of phosphorus. As with ether
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
Tne appiicat on 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
r_ould increase the concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of lagoon Failure
La&oon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from' the structure. Types
of tailures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and ccnstructior., the owner has the responsibility For
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon; structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consu!, an expert in
lagoon des18n before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels —high levels are a safety risk.
Failure -to inspect and maintain 'he dam.
Excess surface xater flowing into t! e lagoon,.
Liner integrity --protect from infer 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.

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' he 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: 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 214 .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2500 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 4750 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2500 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hags/year = 5750 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.

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 925 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4625
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 15.4166666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 37 acres
of land_ Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25o 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

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 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
reasona4le 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.
5. 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.
S. 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.

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 into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
15. 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.

• 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
shou'1d 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 these
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 regulations.
