The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. waste should be analyzed.before each application
cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infilitration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available
water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year.' with special pre-
cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per
acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is
raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM
regulations. wind conditions should also be' considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients
for -crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the
waste'should be applied to a growing crop, or applied to bare ground
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this
is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. -If you
choose to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste 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 require-
ments should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste
management facility. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to
the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.

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 be removed through grazing,
hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed
when they reach a height of six to nine 'inches. Cattle
should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four
inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed
for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small
grain 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 the 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.
** Acreage figures may exceed total acreage in fields due.to
overseeding.

NOTE: 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 395.2 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of. land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.

UTILIZATION PLAN'PAGE .�
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
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.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage'
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6 months. In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
Your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
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
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-. PAGE.,.6
Plans arid: Specifications
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by'runof.£,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subjedtV
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either has owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. if the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he -shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within
a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. 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, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a, Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in additign to "Buffers" required by DEM.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when the
wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally
tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops
or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in
the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file 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 conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
8: Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9-. Animal_ waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in
such a manner -that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered.

WASTE -UTILIZATION FLAN!! PAGE 7
10 Waste' nutrients shall not be ;''appl- -ed�- n._ fall. ,or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a h'igh" '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 a
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to
surface water'. This distance may be reduced for waters that
are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips
are present. (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 wasters,
drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands,
provided they have been approved as a land application site
by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the
application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into
the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
IS.,.A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
est.Alished on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and 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. Lagoon berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage
or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated,,the-owner is responsible for obtaining and imple-
menting a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. 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.

Dear Tom & Jackie Jenkins:
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division).to.extend,the expiration _date.of.the Swine Waste.Operation General
Permit AWG 100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on January 31, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Tom &
Jackie Jenkins, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and
land application system in accordance with General Permit AWGI00000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS310797 which expired on April 30, 2003.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Down Yonder Farms #1 & #2, located in Duplin County, with an animal
capacity of no greater than an annual average of 5200 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land
as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to
Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
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 October 1, 2004. 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.
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 PIan 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.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by rung drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has
an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the
producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable
proximity, allowing himTher 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 offshe or to surface waters and in a method which does not
cause drift from the site during application. No pondng should occur in order to
control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

(continued)
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for
salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should
be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planning 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
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system

responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns,' leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should
be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly. visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall
be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be
required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 69 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.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-797
Duplin County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRYS, SLUR1, SLUR2,
SLDI, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
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 Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
DWQ staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Dear Mr. Halso:
On February 11, 1998, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of
Water Quality inspected you animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. Physical
evidence of over application of animal waste was observed in spray fields #1 and #2; however,
there was no discharge to waters of the State.
Over application of animal waste is a violations of your certified animal waste management
plan, and subsequent infractions may result in a Notice of Violation and include a civil penalty.
NRCS-USDA standards specify that waste be applied in a manner such that ponding does not
occur. In addition, the correct wetted acreage should be used to calculate the nitrogen loading rate
during waste application. We suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil
and Water District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within seven (7) days
of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste management plan.
Failure to do so may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status, requiring it to obtain
an individual non discharge permit.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has
an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the
producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable
proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization
Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shallbe applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons
per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North
Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offske or to surface waters and in a method which does not
cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to
control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for
salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential. for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should
be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop
or forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the
following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a
lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation
ditch or canal Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See
Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands
by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should
be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pining 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 69 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.

Dear Mr. Halso:
On July 29, 1997 Staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of 'Water Quality,
inspected your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. It was observed that waste has
been applied to spray fields which are not listed in the certified animal waste management plan.
NRCS-USDA requirements specify that all acreage on which waste is to be applied should be
designated in the certified animal waste management plan. Any additional land not in the certified animal
waste management plan should be added to the plan along with the proper grazing designations. In addition,
as was discussed at the time of the inspection, the erosion areas on the inner wall of the lagoon should be
filled with a suitable clay material and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover. Calibration and design
data for the irrigation system should also be included in the certified animal waste management plan. We
suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water District office for any
assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within fourteen (14) days
of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste management plan. Failure
to do so may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status, requiring it to obtain an individual non
discharge permit.

System, Calibrationr
Informatian presented in manufacturer's charts are basest 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 arr increase in- the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharge rate: while, decreasingthe 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 subsequently the:
applicatiorr uniformity. For example,operating the: system witty excessive pressure
results irr smaller droplets, greater potential far drift, and: accelerates wear af•the
sprinkler nozzle.. Clogging of nozzles can result irr 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 reasorr, you should calibrate your equipment• on a regular basis ta.
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration ar leash once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and- measuring flow at
several locations irr 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
throughourthe application area arseveral distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located. along a transecr perpendicular to the. direction -
of pull. Set our 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 tharr 30 percent is: cause for concern. You- should contact your irrigation -
dealer or technical specialist -for assistance_

OPTION & NfAaTTEI14ANCIu 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

periods- Irt. the late summer/early fall the lagoon should: be: pumped dowry to the:lm
marlaer (see Figure 2 1) to allow for winter storage- Every effort: should bey made to
maim thc lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as.long as the weatherand.wastm
utilizatim plan will_ allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has- reached its maximum storage capacity before- startingt(r
irrigate does not leave: room for storing excess water during ex=ded wet periodz
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a.vioizd= of
stagy law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoorr involves the following. -
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass arc the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation- should be fertilized each year, if -needed, to
maintairr a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied shouldbe
basedon a soils test, but in- the event that it is: not practical to obtaia
a. soils test each year, the lagoon- embankment and surrounding arm
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 onc: a year and -
possibly twice in years that weather conditions. are favorable- for
heavy vegetative- growth..
NOTE- Yvegetation is controlled by spraying, the -herbicide: rust not be:allowedto eater,'
the -lagoon. water. Such chemicals could harmthe: bacte:da in the lagoon thatare treating
the,wastm.
Maintenan= inspections of the entire lagoorr should be made during the- initial Magof
the lagoon and at least monthly and after majorraanfali.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-
Z cracks or breaks
3. accumulation- of salts- or. minerals
4 overall condition- of. pipes:

1. settlement, cracidng, or "juge' holes
Z. side: sioper stability —slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the- back slope:
4.. erosion due to lack of vegemtiton or as: x result of wave: actiom

A- good stand of -vegetation. will reduce the; potential damage caused. by wave actiorr- If
wave action causes- serious damage to a lagoon sidewalir baffles in the:lagoorr may be:
used. to reduce the wave- impact,_
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the darn_ If yourlagoou has -

Surface water diversion features are designed to racy a1L'surt m
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage,. gutter -outlets;
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste

1 . adequatevegetatiorr
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:
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 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 1 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 draine&
and recharged each day, also work well.

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 spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
M=von.+.m.r-
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show 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 moisture so that'temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 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 and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage orvegetation,
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 vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embanlaneat
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge.Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced 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 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 drams e 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 phosphorus, 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.
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 concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the uaplanned 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 failures 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 darns.)
Lagoon liquid levels —high levels.am.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
bullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly. cause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.

All statements below that are irddalled by a technical specialist apply to the attached certification:
,iWV The irrigation system has not been installed or evaluated concerning nozzle size, spray pattern,
spacing, pipe size, etc. It is the responsibility of the producer to obtain and operate the
system with the proper components and to supply the required maintenance to assure that no
runoff of pollutati� u�cr+rs during operation an"'u.at e "wt4 is appIie; - "A -rc cd ro:ec.
By all T6 (mondh1day/year) the producer should have an irrigation specialist, possibly
the dealer where the system was purchased, prepare an operation and maintenance plan for
the irrigation system so that the producer ]mows how to operate the equipment to Inert the
non -discharge requirements.
The waste management plan for this operation is based on yields higher than what is now
recommended by NRCS; however, these yields are obtainable under high levels of
management and the farmer has supporting documentation to justify higher nitrogen
application rates.
XW All of the permanent vegetation required by the waste management plan has not been
established as of the date of this certification. The producer agrees to establish the
vegetation by /� /� (month/day/year), and to provide a temporary small grain crop in
case some pumping is required prior to the establishment of the permanent vegetation.
The landowner is responsible for notifying DEM in writing that the stated work that has a compliance
date has been completed. This notification must be received by DEM within 15 days of the
compliance date(s) listed above. Please send verification of the properly completed work to: DEM

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
`-------------------------------- 5
This lagoon is designed for wastb treatment (permanent storage).and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent ..and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of - 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year — 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 215 year, rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximUm elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is List -tally the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
bi_tilding(s). If the oLLtlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or, stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
weather-, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
r,unofF or- leaching.
Lanai application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center- pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre —
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start--uP. pyre —charging reduces the- concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon ther^eb,y reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effl�_�en•t at all times. When precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
he �.sed for fljjs.`-inS _:.fter initial filling.
The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
Begin tempora.r,y storage pump --out of the lagoon when fluid level
re=._hes the elevation 100.9 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pl.,olp—
❑ut when the fli_tid level reaches elevation 99. 1 . This temporary
sl;,_ ac e, less ; yv.-.. ;=4 hr storm, contains 34063 cubic Feet or,
'c-_4795 gallons.

r , -
SHEET 2 OF i
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per• irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
inch per hoar. Refer to the waste utilization plan for• further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annI_ially. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
8. Repair, any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of E5 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right—of—ways.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ—
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill
shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer
will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
egUipment or standard tamping roller or other .equivalent method.
Compaction will be considered adequate when -fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER

shall be added to borr,pw as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
irraterial shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling egUipment and proper compaction. proper
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 per -cent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for, the
liner-, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab-
lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or, sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.

'this lagoon is designed -for waste treatment. (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing. operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess 'rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year -- 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, bckt excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider ill tan annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be availxable.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is us�c4ally the Outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop punlping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, �ccch as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid sc5t,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
I. It is strongly recommended -that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start--Lc1D„ r'•re-charging reduces the concentration of the itii.tial
waste ente-i-i 7g the lagoon the:'reby 'reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent .0; al.1 times. When precha•rging is coulplet ,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should pot
be used •f+fir flushing after initial -filling.

5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas} adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
G. Repair any eroded area, or areas damaged by rodents, and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
cutlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
