KENNEDY JR. THIS PLAN SHOWS THE ADDITION OF CENTER PIVOT ON T-71730 F4. ALL SOYBEANS RATES WERE TAKEN FROM THE 7/25/2002 PLAN. 7/25/2002 THIS PLAN I$ A REVISION OF THE 6/17/99 PLAN COMPLETED BY Ronnie G. Kennedy Jr. THIS PLAN DEPICTS THE WETTABLE ACRES ON THE FARM AND DISPLAYS THE SAME IN THE CALCULATION TABLES. GPS TECHNOLOGY WAS USED TO OBTAIN A BETTER MAP OF FARM AND TO OFFICIALLY INCORPORATE BMPS THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE ON FARM. FARM SERVICES MAPS WERE OLD AND UNCLEAR OF ACREAGES; THEREFORE MAPPING TOOK PLACE TO CLARIFY APPLICATION AREAS AND CROPPING SYSTEMS. THERE ARE ACRES THAT WILL BE UTILIZED WITH ALTERNATIVE IRRIGATION EQUIPMENT. THESE AREAS ARE DENOTED ON MAP AND IN THE TABLES OF 'THE WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN. DUE TO THE DEFICIT NOTED IN THIS WUP, IT IS ALLOWABLE FOR COTTON TO REPLACE THE CORN CROP ON TRACT 70989 FIELD 1 IF MR. WIITTFILLD SO DESIRES. IF COTTON IS USED THE APPLICATION WINDOWS WILL BE +MAY-JUN+ AND THE AGRONOMIC RATE WILL BE 45 LBS. N PER ACRE THIS WILL ALLOW FOR THE RESIDUAL N FROM THE PREVIOUS CROP. NO WASTE SHOULD BE APPLIED TO A CROP THAT DOES NOT HAVE A REALISTIC YIELD FOR THE USAGE OF IRRIGATED SWINE WASTE, EXCEPT FOR PREPLANT. ALL FIELDS MUST MEET MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS WIHEN USED. MR. WHITFIELD PLANS TO APPLY SWINE WASTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH HIS SPECIFIC WASTE ANALYSIS NOT TO EXCEED THE HYDRAULIC LOADING,OF THE SOILS. THIS WASTE PLAN SHOULD NOT TAKE EFFECT UNTIL THE END OF THE APPLICATION CROP WINDOWS FOR CROPS BEING UTILIZED AT THE TIME OF PLAN PREPARATION. THIS PLAN WILL START WITH THE NEXT AVAILABLE CROPPING CYCLES. -----------------------•.......... .......... ............. ------........................... ..................................................... 772799 Database Version 4,1 Date Printed: 01-26-2015 Narrative Page, I of I The table shown below provides a summary of the crops or rotations included in this plan for each field.

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.

The following Lagoon Sludge -Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres 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 appl ication rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and.organic matter remaining after treatment and.application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for'crop production and.applied .at agronomic -rates. Inmost cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. if this is not possible, care should betaken 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 moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. 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 accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design 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.

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 properly 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 notexceed, 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. Animalwaste 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, NRCS 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). ._________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ 772799 Database Version 4A Date Printed: 1/26/2015 Specification Page 3 . c lye,. 2 ...-n f.. 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. 8. 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 Ieast 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. ------- ----- -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ •-----------------. 772799 - Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 1/26/20I5 Specification Page 2 15. Animal waste shall -not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste maybe 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. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from wash down 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. -------------------------------------------•----'----.-. ------------------------------------- ----------------••----------• ---------"-------------------- 772799 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 1/26/2015 Specification Page 3 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 monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three 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. --------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------.._...--------- 772799 Database Version 4.1 Date Printed: 1/26/2015 Specification Page 4 Crop.

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. r Pager/ FN`3'Im8 6 C-77-1 W /05 Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities; and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. WRh 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 DWQ 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.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. 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_ 234Y 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 equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge. 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 , 7 feet of the top of the dike. pounds of plant WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer signer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the t 1 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 Agriment'Services representative for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to beginning the application of your waste.

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. illegal discharges are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues. 2. The Local NRCS office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either 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 MRCS 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 updated 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. 4. 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 addition 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. 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" in the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance. 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infil- tration rate such that runoff does not occur off -site 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 event, 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 Page 7 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 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 waters, drainage ways, 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 wash down 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. 18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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 implementing 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. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Paget 21. 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. 22. 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. 23. Waste shall be tested within sixty 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 and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five years. 24. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina State regulations or other States' regulations.

Permit Number NCA231806 ' Facility 31-806 A� Duplin County Dear Neil & Tom Whitfield, 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 NCA231806 Condition 1.6, 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." 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 N�`On`hCarulina - Jatrrrrr!!� Aquifer Protection Section 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1636 Phone (919) 733-3221 Customer Service Internet: http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us 2728 Capital Boulevard Raleigh, NC 27604 Fax (919) 715-0588 1-877-623-6748 Fax (919)715-6048 An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer— M Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper Neil & Tom Whitfield Page 2 January 3, 2006 loss potential.

From the date of receipt of this letter, a period of 180 days is provided to perform PLAT and return the certification form to DWQ. Only a technical specialist who has received specific training may perform PLAT. You are encouraged to contact a technical specialist now to run PLAT on your farm. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District may be able to provide assistance. This information on the attached form(s) must be submitted within 180 days of receipt of this letter to: Animal Feeding Operations Unit Division of Water Quality 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1636 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 puipose 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.

The General Permit was issued to enable swine facilities in North Carolina to obtain coverage under a single permit that addresses both State and Federal requirements. In accordance with your application received on January 16, 2003, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Neil & Tom Whitfield, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES General Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your COC Number AWS310806 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not Ihnited to, the management of animal waste from the N&T Farm 1-8, located in DuplinCounty, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 6400 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until July 1, 2007. 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 General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and Federal general permit it contains many new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the current 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 monitorine conditions in this hermit. The Devices to Automatically Stoh Irrigation Events Form must be returned to the Division of Water Quality no later than 120 days following. receipt of the Certificate of Coverage.

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 infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special 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 DWO 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. J This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. 1y Page 1 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 2 AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (GALLONS, FT3, TONS, ETC.) 6400 hogs x 3.8 tons wastelhogslyear'= 24320 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 6400 hogs x 4.6 PAN/hogstyear = 29440 lbs.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. 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 PW Y 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 equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge. 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 , ! feet of the top of the dike. pounds of plant WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 7 If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer signer 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 Agriment Services representative for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to beginning the application of your waste.

TECHNICAL SPECIALIST 7/25/02 I � 1 TOM WEITFII LD OWNL'sR/OP1iRATOR WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Plans and 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. Illegal discharges are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues. 2. The Local NRCS office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either 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 updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. 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 addition 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 infil- tration rate such that runoff does not occur off -site 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 event, 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. 11 Page 0 �6l WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 7 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 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 waters, drainage ways, 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 wash down 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. 1 B. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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 implementing 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. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 21. 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. 22. 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. 23. Waste shall be tested within sixty 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 and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five years. 24. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina State regulations or other States' regulations.

The print 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 befere each application cycle. Annual soil toasts 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 RECEIVED utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available '" water holding capacities. 'Normally waste shall not be applied -to land APR 4 6 Z009 eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With spec iaFI)re- 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 this surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DINO regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize they value of the.natrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, they waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to ptanting. Injecting the waste or disking will consenpe 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.

Animal waste shall nut 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. Illegal discharges .are subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues. 2. The Local NRCS office must have documentation in the design fo'Aer that the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer Noes 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 rea iona.ble, proximity, allowing himlher the use of the land for waste application for the life expe:ts!ncy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase irr the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shell 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. 4. 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 addition 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 afteer waste; application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acre, subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally filed cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be: broadcast provided the application does not occur during a sea sor prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file for guideince, 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infil- tration rate such that runoff does not occur off -site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No pand'ing should occur in order to control condition,, conducive to odor or flies and to provide uniformity, of application. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall event, or when the: surface is frozen. 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 Ui ILIZATION PLAN Page 1 10. Waste nutrient} shall not be applied in fall ar winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should ba hold to a min:murn and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall riot be applied more than 30 days prier to planting of a crop on bare soil. 11. Animal waste shall nct 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 shell 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 pro:)erty and public right -of ways. 15. Animal waste nhell not be discharged into surface waters, drainage ways, 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 speclalis" `. Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways ,:hat dis,-harge 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 wash down 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-yoar, 24-hour storm event in addition to one (1) foot mandatory fraeboard. 18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, et(;_). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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 disc'iarge. 19. If animal production M 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, 20_ Waste handlicg structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a mgular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Pagel* 21. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetibles anti other crops for clirect human consumption, However, if aninial v►aste, P is used on crops for direct human consumption it should only be applied pre plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crap season. 22.

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 ma)amize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special 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 DWQ 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 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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. NOTE: The Waste Ublization 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 appro)dmately .0 L V 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 equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utiltzation 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 temporarystorage 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. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 5 If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation design signer 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 Agriment Services representative for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to beginning the application of your waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION: SEE ATTACHMENT ADDENDUM TO WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN: FACILITY NUMBER 31-8/1b FARM NAME: NA 1-8 OWNER NAME: TOMAND NEIL WHITFIELD DESIGN CAPACITY: 6400 FEEDER TO FINISH THIS PLAN IS A REVISION OF THE 9/8/98 PLAN COMPLETED BY Ronnie G. Kennedy Jr. THIS PLAN DEPICTS THE WETTABLE ACRES ON THE FARM AND DISPLAYS THE SAME IN THE CALCULATION TABLES. THIS WASTE PLAN REPRESENTS A COMPLETE TWO-YEAR ROTATION OF THE CROPLAND AND HAY/PASTURELAND. THE PAN HAS BEEN DOUBLED TO REPRESENT PAN ACCUMALATION FOR TWO -YEARS. THE ACREAGES OF THE PASTURELAND, WINTER/SUMMER ANNUALS, AND SMALL GRAIN OVERSEED HAVE BEEN DOUBLED IN THIS PLAN TO TAKE UP THE NUTRIENTS FOR A TWO-YEAR PERIOD, BECAUSE THESE CROPS DO NOT CHANGE IN TWO YEARS. THE CROPLAND REPRESENTS THE USE OF A CORN/WINTER ANNUAL/SOYBEAN ROTATION. THE ACTUAL ACREAGES ARE USED FOR THE CROPLAND, BECAUSE THE CROPS CHANGE EVERY OTHER YEAR. ACREAGES MAY BE CONFUSING BY SEEING DOUBLE THE ACREAGES FOR THE TWO-YEAR ROTATION REVERT TO MAP FOR ACTUAL ACRES USED. THE APPLICATION WINDOWS IN THIS PLAN ARE GENERAL IN REGARDS TO SMALL GRAIN OVERSEED. FOR GUIDANCE ON THE WINDOWS AND RATES MR WHITFIELD MUST REVERT TO GUIDANCE MEMO FROM NCSU (INCLUDED). TRACT 70999 FIELD 1 WILL BE APPLIED USING A HONEYWAGON SPECIFICATIONS AND CALIBRATIONS WILL BE INCLUDED IN PLAN, DUE TO THE DEFICIT NOTED IN TIES WUP, IT IS ALLOWABLE FOR COTTON TO REPLACE THE CORN CROP ON TRACT 70989 FIELD 1 IF HE SO DESIRES. IF COTTON IS USED THE APPLICATION WINDOWS WILL BE +MAY-JUN+ AND THE AGRONOMIC RATE WILL BE 45 LBS. N PER ACRE THIS WILL ALLOW FOR THE RESIDUAL N FROM THE PREVIOUS CROP. NO WASTE SHOULD BE APPLIED TO A CROP THAT DOES NOT HAVE A REALISTIC YIELD FOR THE USAGE OF IRRIGATED SWINE WASTE, EXCEPT FOR PREPLANT.

TECHNICAL SPECIALIST 6/17/99 , 1 TOM WHITFIELD OWNERIOPERATOR WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Plans and Specifications Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drill, 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 subject to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues. 2. The Local NRCS office must have documentation In the design folder that the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate land to property 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 updated 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. 4. Animal waste maybe 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 addition 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 infil- tration rate such that runoff does not occur off -site 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 files and to provide uniformity of application. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall event, or when the surface Is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. Page 6 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 7 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 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 waters, drainage ways, 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 wash down 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 ma)dmum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to one (1) foot mandatory freeboard. 18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and 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 implementing 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. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 8 21. 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. 22. 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. 23. Waste shall be tested within sbdy 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 and waste analysis records shall be kept for fire years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five years. 24. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina State regulations or other States' regulations.

The Forage Production Workgroup has taken the available data and used the combined experiences and reeliStic estimates of key people to corm up with suggestions that Will allow farmers to incorporate these crops Qod practices into waste management plans. As data become available to substantiate or refute these suggestions, the 1=orage Production WorkVoup will maki; appropriate changes. Bermuda Overseeded With Cereal Rye and Annual Ryegrass Currently two types of "ryegrass" are being used for winter overseeding in Yields used for animal waste management. Cerwa] eve is a winter annual smallgrain that looks similar to wheat, barley and oats. 6nnal rycgrasjis a winter annual grass that looks much like ,0 fescue. Both of these grasses, when growing during the; winter on bermuda sod, can have significant impact on subsequent bermuda yields. In effect, the total yields from an acre growing the combination of bermoda with these winter annuals Will usually yield between 1-2 tons more per acre than bermuda growing alone; for the year. Therefore, the total a uni of PAN /acre for the year is about 100 Ibs more than for bermuda alone. Although cereal rye and annual ryegrass are stxitabte crops for overseeding, the management of the crops arc different and thus practices implemented are dependent on the crop selected. 09/02/98 09:29 %Y9102962122 USDA NRCS Z 003 +00,an C.vmQ tl'nt. „N"-t,:v a Y All Dcpartmcnt Gi Crop SciO,)CC gtti,l un6utof wV I WcAA aN „aW -W, al 1 fib VnIVOMY or NW1 _Gmonh M� T GWjopa al Agric+. wra W14 L(lir klomw CGmputi Hut .,d.0 nulrign.

The PAN rate for gazed Systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced in accordance wiih NRCS Technical Standard 1590. Annual Ry'egr-ass 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 tali) berrnudagrass 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 ti=s 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 (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. Jf additional PAN is applied to ncc ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a corresponding arnount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April-Mav Mill reduce bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A hi west 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 ovtrsecded with annual ryegrass must be reduced in accordance with NRCS Technical Standard 0590.

It was observed that waste was sprayed in the farm road and in the edge of the adjacent woods. While no runoff or discharge to waters of the State occurred at this time, 15A NCAC 211 .0217(a)(1) prohibits the application of waste such that runoff from the application site occurs. Crops which are not designated in the certified animal waste management plan are being grown in the spray fields. USDA-NRCS requirements specify that animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances or direct application. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not exceeding the soil infiltration rate such that excessive ponding and/or runoff of wastewater does not occur offshe or to surface waters. This particular spray field requires intensive management to reduce the risk of runoff. The appropriate crops as designated by the certified plan should be planted in the spray fields or the certified plan should be amended to include these crops'. Waste application to these spray fileds should be discontinued until the situation can be corrected. In addition, as was discussed at the time of the inspection, the erosion areas on the inner wall of lagoon 3/4 should be filled with a suitable clay material, compacted and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover. The trees on the outer wall of lagoon 3/4 should be removed. We suggest that you contact your service company, local MRCS or Soil and Water District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation. 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845 • Telephone 910-395-3900 • Pax 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer r.
