WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Goldsboro Hog Fanns, Inc.
Monday, February 10, 2003
Producer: Friendship Finishing, LLC.
Farm Name : Friendship
185 N. Country Club Drive
Kenansville,NC 28349
Telephone ## : [phone]
Type of Operation : Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 15920 hogs design capacity
Application Method: Irrigation
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
contents 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 alvaialable 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 requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis_ This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission_
Page 1

AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
16920 hogs X 1.9 tons wastelhogslyear = 30248 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
15920 hogs X 2.3 Ibs PANlhogslyear = 36616 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown,
soil type and suface application -

NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements- Your production facility
will produce approximately 5890.4 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.
See the 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 5.92 months. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure be within 1 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity 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_

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This Waste Utilization Plan is a combination of the Circle Q #2 farm, Jack Hill farm and New
Hope Farm (William Fussell), all incorporated entities. The DWQ facility number is 31-848.
This WUP is written by irrigation pulls and the information was provided by the producers and
by the prior plan written by the Duplin SWCD office. The hydrant spacing is not consistent
and so in most cases the area is calibrated as a single pull with no overlap, because in no
case is the hydrant spacing too close_ There is actually land that is not being wet during
irrigation and no credit is being given for that acreage.
This WUP utilizes the 100-lb PAN rate on the small grain overseed with the following
conditions: (1) no application to bermuda after August 31, (2) the application to small grain
must be done in split applications, from Sept 15 to October 31 with no application in Nov -
Jan and from February 1 to March 31, and (3) the small grain must be harvested by April 7.
This facility can actually meet the nutrient budget requirements without the 100-lb PAN rate,
so in the event it cannot meet the aforementioned conditions, it can revert back to a 50-lb
PAN rate with an application window on small grain from Sept - Apr and an application
window on bermuda from March until the first killing frost.

PLANS & 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 Field 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 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.
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
Stantard 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 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" in the MRCS 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 the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
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 _ 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
Page 7

and'from any perennial stream or river (other that 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 shad 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 landownwer.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right - of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -"spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted croplands
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 directly 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. 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 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.
*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 as a preemergence with no other 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 fpr waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels_ pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production amd maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) 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 Department of

Type of Operation: Feeder to Finish Swine
Number Of Animals : 15920 hogs design capacity
Application Method: Irrigation
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
contents 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 avaialable 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 requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
21-11_0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3: tons, etc.)
15920 hogs X 1.9 tons wastelhogslyear = 30248 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
15920 hogs X 2.3 lbs PANlhogslyear = 36616 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job.
You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment
to apply
the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste
application based on the crop to be grown,
soil type
and suface
application.

NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility
will produce approximately 5890.4 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.
See the 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 5-92 months. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure be within 1 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity 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 -

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This Waste Utilization Plan is a combination of the Circle Q #2 farm, Jack Hill farm and New
Hope Farm (William Fussell), all incorporated entities. The DWQ facility number is 31-848.
This WUP is written by irrigation pulls and the information was provided by the producers and
by the prior plan written by the Duplin SWCD office. The hydrant spacing is not consistent
and so in most cases the area is calibrated as a single pull with no overlap, because in no
case is the hydrant spacing too close. There is actually land that is not being wet during
irrigation and no credit is being given for that acreage.
This WUP utilizes the 100-lb PAN rate on the small grain overseed with the following
conditions: (1) no application to bermuda after August 31, (2) the application to small grain
must be done in split applications, from Sept 15 to October 31 with no application in Nov -
Jan and from February 1 to March 31, and (3) the small grain must be harvested by April 7.
This facility can actually meet the nutrient budget requirements without the 100-ib PAN rate,
so in the event it cannot meet the aforementioned conditions, it can revert back to a 50-lb
PAN rate with an application window on small grain from Sept - Apr and an application
window on bermuda from March until the first killing frost.

PLANS & 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 Field 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 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.
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
Stantard 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 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 tilted 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 the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
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 _ 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
Page 7

and from any perennial stream or river (other that 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 landownwer.
14_ Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right - of ways.
15_ Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted croplands
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 directly 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. 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 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.
`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 as a preemergence with no other 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 fpr waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production amd maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) 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 Department of

Dear Sir or Ms.:
The Division's records show that a completed PLAT Form has NOT been submitted for this facility. If
our records are in error please resubmit the completed PLAT Form for this farm.
There is a condition in your Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit addressing the
completion of the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool for your animal feeding operation upon
notification by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA231848 Condition 1.6 states:
"If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government
establishes Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a
facility operating under this permit, the Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility
and its CAWMP under the requirements of the Phosphorus loss standards to determine the
facility's ability to comply with the standards. This evaluation must be documented on
forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to the Division. This
evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving
notification from the Division.
The method of evaluation is the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) developed by NC State
University and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. PLAT addresses four potential loss
pathways: leaching, erosion, runoff and direct movement of waste over the surface. Each field must be
individually evaluated and rated as either low, medium, high or very high according to its Phosphorus
loss potential. The ratings for your farm must be reported to DWQ using the attached certification form.
The PLAT forms must be kept as records on your farm for future reference.
The Division's records show that you received the notification to conduct PLAT on January 13, 2006. To
avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, The Division of Water Quality requests
that the following items be addressed:

Dear Maxwell Foods Inc,
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 NCA231848 Condition I.6, your facility must now
conduct a Phosphorus Loss Assessment. Condition 1.6 states:
"If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government establishes
Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a facility operating
under this permit, the Pennittee 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

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 purpbse 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 a11cuu11t 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.

Dear Maxwell Foods, Inc.:
In accordance with your Notification of Change of Ownership received on February 6, 2004, we are
hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Maxwell Foods, Inc., authorizing
the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in
accordance with NPDES General Permit NCA200000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not Iimited to, the management
of animal waste from the Friendship Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 15920 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, and shall hereby void Certificate
of Coverage Number NCA231848 dated April 9, 2003, and shall be subject to the conditions and
limitations as specified therein. 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 monitoring conditions in this hermit. The Devices to Automatically Stow Irrigation Events Form
must be returned to the Division of Water Quality no later than 120 days following receipt of the

Dear Circle Q Farms Inc:
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, HM, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR], 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

Subject Classification of Animal Waste Management Systems
Facility: Circle Q #2
Facility ID #: 31-848
County: Duplin
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge (OIC) by January 1, 1997, for each
animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more
horses, 1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management
system. Our records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets
the requirements for designating an OIC.
A training and certification program is available for animal waste management system operators. For
information on the training programs please contact your local Cooperative Extension Agent Operator
certifications are issued by the Water Pollution Control Systems Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). For information on the certification process, please contact the Technical Assistance and
Certification Unit at [phone]. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each
system is based on the nature of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat
the animal waste. There are two types of animal waste management systems, type A and type B. Type A
animal waste management systems are generally used to treat waste generated by monogastric animals
which produce a low -fiber waste. Type B animal waste management systems are generally used to treat
waste generated by ruminants and other animals which produce a high -fiber waste. The type of training and
certification an operator receives should correspond with the type of system(s) they intend to operate. For
more information on the classification of your system please contact the Technical Assistance and
Certification Unit.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not
intend to operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or
engage a contract operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge,
whether yourself or another person, must possess a currently valid certificate of the appropriate type.

with General Permit No. AWG100000. On Aug. 27, 1997 Governor Hunt signed into law the Clean
Water Responsibility Act. The Clean Water Responsibility Act- included several . changes to the Swine
Farm Siting Act (Siting Act) including the requirement that all set back:. distances, be met -for any swine
lagoon or swine house for which construction commences on or after the effective date of the .Clean Water.
Responsibility Act (Aug. 27, 1997). Before the Siting Act was amended; it required the set back distances
be met at the time the swine house or lagoon was sited. The change in siting requirements may apply -to
your farm since construction may nor have commenced - by the effective date . of the Clean Water
Responsibility Act.
Your farm was permitted prior to the effective date of the Clean Water Responsibility Act;
therefore, you meet one of the exceptions to the moratorium. However, the farm_ must be re-evaluated
and, if necessary, re -designed to meet the new requirements of the Siting Act to remain covered under the
General Permit. Within 15 days of the date of this letter, you are requested to submit, notification to the
Division of Water Quality whether the farm was under construction on or before Aug. 27, 1997.
If the farm was not under construction on or before Aug. 27, 1997, then a revised Certified Animal
Waste Management Plan must be submitted to reflect the new siting requirements. Construction not in
compliance with the Siting Act is a violation of State Statutes and the General Permit.
If you have any questions or conunents concerning this matter, please contact me at (919) 733-
5083 extension 540.

Emergency Action Plan
This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from you operations are leaking, overflowing,
or running off the site. You should h9T wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your
property to consider that you have a problem. You should make very effort to ensure that this does
not happen. This plan should be available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and
breaks can happen at any time.
1) Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible.
Suggested responses to problems are listed below:
a) Lagoon overflow:
• add soil to the berm to increase the elevation of the dam
• pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate
• stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waterers)
• call a pumping contractor
• make sure no surface water is entering the lagoon
Note: These activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary
storage level.
b) Runoff from waste application field:
• immediately stop waste application
• create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field
• incorporate waste to reduce further runoff
c) Leaking from the waste distribution system:
• pipes and sprinklers:
O stop recycle (flushing system) pump
stop irrigation pump
Q close valves to eliminate further discharge
® separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow

• flush system, houses, solids separators:
(D stop recycle (flushing system) pump
® stop irrigation pump
© make sure no siphon effect has been created
® separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow
d) Leakage from.base or sidewall of the lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed
to flowing leaks:
• dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and
pump back into the lagoon
• if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes
and compact with a clay type soil.
• other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil.
Note: For permanent repair measures, lagoon problems require the consultation of an individual
experienced in their design and installation.
2) Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a) Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b) Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c) Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
3) Contact appropriate agencies.
a) During normal business hours, call your DWQ regional office: 910-395-3-900; after hours,
emergency number: 800-858-0369 or 919-733-3942. Your phone call should include:
your name, facility, telephone number, the`details of the incident, the exact location of the
facility, and the location or direction of movement of the spill, weather and wind
conditions, what corrective measures have been taken, and the seriousness of the
situation.
b) Your integrator: Goldsboro Hog Farms Division, Maxwell Foods, Inc.
919=778-3130 extension 1430
c) if the spill leaves the property or enters surface waters, call the local EMS:
910-296-2160 .

Please review the attached plan and specifications carefully. Retain
' this plan for your use and records. It is strongly recommended that
you, your contractor, and the Design Engineer or Technical Specialist do
a construction check on the waste lagoon immediately upon completion, in
' order to have your operation certified. This is a MUST before the farm
can be populated with animals.
The pad dimensions and grades are best estimates. The BUILDER or
' CONTRACTOR is responsible for final layout of the pads. The Design
Engineer and/or the Technical Specialist will assist in a limited
capacity, as its major concern is the proper design and construction of
' the waste treatment lagoon.
The actual amount of material required for pads and dam may vary from
the estimates. This design attempts to balance cuts and fills as close
as possible. If additional material is required, the Contractor and
Owner will negotiate on the price and location of the borrow area.

SHEET 1 OF 2
' OPERATION -AND -MAINTENANCE -PLAN
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•�•yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a
' heavy rain factor. 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 heavy rain
factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual
' pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available.
The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with.
an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be
installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary
storage (pumping volume),. Pumping shall be done as necessary to
' maintain the liquid level between these markers.
Pumping can be started or stopped.at any time between these'two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
' weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
' Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center 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 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be
charged to 1/2 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during
' start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors.. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging—is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
1 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 48.00 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation '44.60 . This temporary
storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 343706 cubic feet or
' 2570919 gallons.

' SHEET 2 OF 2
4: The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation and
' recommended maximum application rate is shown in the waste utilization
plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
' 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
' 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled
height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop.
B. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the
' joints.
9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris.
10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage.
' 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for
sludge accumulation annually. If -sludge has encroached into the
treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic
rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have
a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times.
' 12. In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC)
in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address
animal operations.' These rules became effective on February 1,
' 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal- operation shall be operated
within the requirements of these rules and regulations.
13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water
' and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and
as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible in order to provide
a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors when irrigating on
land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should
be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in
the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with
' clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
' ----------------------------------------------------------
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
t -
The foundation area ofthe lagoon embankment and building ad shall be
g g P
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish:
Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building.pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the first lift of'fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHF ILL PLACEMENT:
t-----------------------------------
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to -the lines,
grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over
5.inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
t 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

Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste
should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the
fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so
that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding
capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre
annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate
filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waterswhich is not allowed under DEM regulations.
' 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
IPage: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
1
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the
' potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking
dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce
odor problems.
' This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. if you choose to
change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different
' application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient
' content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste
analysis report and volume of waste from your waste management facility. In some
cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to
be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to
' accommodate changing waste analysis content .and crop type. Lime must be applied to
maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with
15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
' 4000 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 7600 tons•
' AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
4000 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs,/year = 9200 lbs. PAN/year
1
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.

' 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 to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too
high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced
yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than
cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as
is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small
' grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or
silage two to three times during the season, depending on
time small grain is planted in the fall.
' The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late
September or early October. Drilling is recommended over
broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a
' height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

ISLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
' application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
' approximately 1480 pounds of'plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
if you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 7400
1 Page: 6

' ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
' pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 24.6666666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
' the rate of 1.25 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 59.2 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only, estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 2595' depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
' methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
' the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
' it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables I and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application
rates and amounts.

applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot
be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary
storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance
should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24
hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour
storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader
equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables
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.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
The operation has 25.6 irrigatable acres which are adequate for 4000 topping hogs. Mr. Quinn
has completed an AD 1026 to have additional land checked for spray field. He will need 2.5
additional irrigatable for a total of 28.1 irrigatable acres. This will be adequate land for
4400 topping hogs

' 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 shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10
'
tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
' 5.
Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
' 6.
When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation
tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in
'
North Carolina" for guidance.)
7.
Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such
'
that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which
does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in
order to control odor or flies.
' $:
Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or
when the surface is frozen.
' 9.
Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The
potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
' 10.
Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on
soils with a high potential far leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these
soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
1
take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to
planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy.

16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks,
etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
' 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed
areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and
' other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate.
Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge.
' 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate
the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
' 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
' checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops
for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for
1 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 t0 mark the top and bottom elevations of
the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons.
Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A
marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage
ponds.

22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least
annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the
rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored
' and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive
levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil
and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application

SAMPLE COLLECTION
A. Lagoon Liquid
1. Collect approximately 1/2 pint of recycled lagoon liquid from the inflow pipe to the
flush tanks.
2. From Lagoon
a. Place a small bottle (1/2 pint or less) on the end of a 10-15 foot long pole.
b. Extend the bottle 10-15 feet away from the bank edge.
c. Brush away any floating scum or debris so it is not collected with sample.
d. Submerge the bottle within 1 foot of the liquid surface.
e. Repeat at approximately 5 locations around the lagoon, place into a bucket,
thoroughly mix, and empty 1 pint into sample container.
3. From a multi -stage lagoon system collect sample from lagoon that is going to be .
irrigated from.
SAMPLE PREPARATION AND TRANSFER
A. Place the sample for analysis into a flexible or expandable container that can be sealed. The
container .should be rinsed clean with water and free of any residues but should not be
chlorinated or treated in any other way. Dry litter may also be placed in a sealed plastic bag
such as a freezer bag.
B. The sample should be refrigerated, iced. or cooled, if •possible or transferred- to the lab
immediately-
C. Hand-deIivery is the most reliable way of sample transfer, but it can also be mailed.
D. If mailed, sample container should first be protected with a packing material such as
newspaper, then boxed 'or packaged with wrapping paper and taped.
E. The NCDA Plant Analysis Lab provides this service for a nominal fee of $4 per sample which
should be forwarded along with the sample.

System Calibration
1
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
' conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular,
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use,
nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
' You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
' sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
' uniformity.
Far the above reason; you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least,once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring'flow at
' several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated state from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
' jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
' For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
' guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of.
pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of
the gun cart, You should compute the average application rate for all
nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
' of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.
