The Director may require facilities to submit additional reports and/or certifications based on the facility's compliance history. 16. In the event of a discharge of 1,000 gallons or more of waste to surface waters or wetlands, the Permittee must issue a press release to all print and electronic news media that provide general coverage in the county in which the discharge occurred setting out the details of the discharge. The press release must be issued within forty-eight (48) hours after it is determined that the discharge has reached the surface waters or wetlands. A copy of the press release and a list of the news media to which it was distributed must be kept for at least one (1) year after the discharge and must be distributed to any person upon request. 17. In the event of a discharge of 15,000 gallons or more of animal waste to surface waters or wetlands, a public notice is required in addition to the press release described in Condition 11116. The public notice must be placed in a newspaper having general circulation in the county in which the discharge occurred and the county immediately downstream within ten (10) days of the discharge. The minimum content of the notice is the name of the facility, location of the discharge, estimated volume of waste entering state waters, time and date discharge occurred, duration of the discharge, identification water body that was discharged into including creek and river basin if applicable, actions taken to prevent further discharge, and a facility contact person and phone number. 18. If a discharge of 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater or more reaches surface waters or wetlands, the appropriate Division Regional Office must be contacted to determine in what additional counties, if any, a public notice must be published. A copy of all public notices and proof of publication must be sent to the Division within thirty (30) days ofthe.discharge. 10 February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 19. All facilities, which are issued a COC to operate under this General Permit, shall conduct a survey of the sludge accumulation in all lagoons every year. The survey report should be written on forms provided or approved by the Division and shall include a sketch showing the depth of sludge in the various locations within each lagoon. This survey frequency may be reduced if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Division that the rate of sludge accumulation does not warrant an annual survey. If the sludge accumulation is such that the structure does not satisfy the criteria set by MRCS NC Conservation Practice Standard No. 359, a sludge removal or management plan must be submitted to the appropriate Division Regional Office within ninety (90) days of the determination. The plan shall describe removal and waste utilization procedures to be used. Compliance regarding sludge levels must be achieved within two (2) years of the determination. 20. If required by 15A NCAC 02T Section .1300, the Division may notify the permittee to conduct compliance water quality monitoring on surface and/or groundwater during the period of this General Permit. This monitoring will not be required until such time as the Division notifies the permittee. A monitoring plan shall be established within the time specified by the above referenced rules. All monitoring must be performed using standard sampling protocol, tested at a laboratory approved by the Division, and results must be submitted to the Division. IV. INSPECTIONS AND ENTRY l . The Permittee shall allow any authorized representative of the Department, upon the presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law and in accordance with reasonable and appropriate biosecurity measures, to: a. Enter the Permittee's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of this General Permit; b. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that must be kept under the conditions of this General Permit; Inspect, at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and control equipment), practices, or operations regulated or required under this General Permit; and, d. Sample or monitor, at reasonable times, for the purpose of assuring permit compliance, any substances or parameters at any location. V. GENERAL CONDITIONS 1. The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit shall not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility for compliance with all applicable surface water, wetlands, groundwater and air quality standards or for damages to surface waters, wetlands or groundwaters resulting from the animal operation. The maximum waste level in lagoons/storage ponds shall not exceed that specified in the facility's CAWMP. At a minimum, maximum waste level for lagoons/storage ponds must not exceed the level that provides adequate storage to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event plus an additional one (1) foot of structural freeboard except that there shall be no violation of this condition if. (a) there is a storm event more severe than a 25-year, 24-hour event, (b) the Permittee is in compliance with its CAWMP, and (c) there is at least one (1) foot of structural freeboard. t 1 February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 In addition to the above requirements, for new and expanding farms with lagoon and storage pond designs completed after September 1, 1996, storage must also be provided for the heavy rainfall factor for the lagoons/storage pond. In case of lagoons/storage ponds in series that are gravity fed, the 25-year, 24-hour storm event and/or the heavy -rainfall factor storage requirement for the system may be designed into the lowest lagoon/storage pond in the system. However, adequate freeboard must be designed into the upper lagoons/storage ponds to allow sufficient storage to prevent the waste level from rising into the structural freeboard while the storm water is draining into the lowest structure in the system. Any containment basin, such as a lagoon or a storage pond, used for waste management shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of this General Permit until properly closed. When the containment basin is properly closed in accordance with the NRCS NC Conservation Practice Standard No. 360 "Closure of Waste Impoundments," February 2008 or any subsequent amendment, the containment basin shall not be subject to the requirements of this General Permit. The Permittee must submit a letter to the Division to request rescission of the COC by providing documentation of closure of all containment basins. Closure shall also include a minimum of 24 hours pre -notification of the Division and submittal of the Animal Waste Storage Pond and Lagoon Closure Report Form to the address identified on the form within fifteen (15) days of completion of closure. 4. This General Permit allows for the distribution of up to four cubic yards of manure per visit to individuals for personal use. The Permittee must provide the recipient(s) with information on the nutrient content of the manure. Distribution of greater quantities must be to individuals or businesses permitted to distribute the waste, or to be land applied to sites identified in the Permittee's CAWMP. The Permittee must inform the recipient(s) of his/her responsibilities to properly manage the land application of manure. Record keeping for the distribution of manure up to four (4) cubic yards per visit to individuals for personal use is not required. The annual permit fee shall be paid by the Permittee within thirty (30) days after being billed by the Division. Failure to pay the fee accordingly constitutes grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Permit. 6. Failure of the Permittee to maintain, in full force and effect, lessee and landowner agreements, which are required in the CAWMP, shall constitute grounds for revocation of its COC to operate under this General Permit. 7. A COC to operate under this General Permit is not transferable. In the event there is a desire for the facility to change ownership, or there is a name change of the Permittee, a Notification of Change of Ownership form must be submitted to the Division, including documentation from the parties involved and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. This request shall be submitted within sixty (60) days of change of ownership. The request will be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved. A COC to operate under this General Permit is effective only with respect to the nature and volume of wastes described in the application and other supporting data. The Permittee shall notify the Division immediately of any applicable information not provided in the permit application. Any proposed modification to an animal waste management system including the installation of lagoon covers shall require approval from the Division prior to construction. 12 February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 If the Permittee wishes to continue an activity regulated by this General Permit after the expiration date of this General Permit, the Permittee must apply for and obtain a new COC. Renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the General Permit. 10. The issuance of a COC to operate under this General Permit does not prohibit the Division from reopening and modifying the General Permit or COC, revoking and reissuing the General Permit or COC, or terminating the General Permit or COC as allowed by the appropriate laws, rules, and regulations. 11. The Director may require any person, otherwise eligible for coverage under this General Permit, to apply for an individual permit by notifying that person that an application is required. 12. The Groundwater Compliance Boundary is established by 15A NCAC 2L .0102 and 15A NCAC 2T .0103. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to the requirements of 15A NCAC 2L and the Division in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under the North Carolina General Statutes. 13. Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility. VI. PENALTIES Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this General Permit; the facility's COC; the facility's CAWMP; and/or applicable state law; may subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division including but not limited to the modification of the animal waste management system, civil penalties, criminal penalties and injunctive relief. The Permittee must comply with all conditions of this General Permit. Any permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of state law and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit coverage termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit coverage renewal application. It shall not be a defense for a Permittee in an enforcement action to claim that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this General Permit. VH. DEFINITIONS 25-year, 24-hour rainfall or storm event means the maximum 24-hour precipitation event with a probable recurrence interval of once in 25 years, as defined by the National Weather Service in Technical Paper Number 40, "Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States," May 1961, and subsequent amendments, or equivalent regional or state rainfall probability information developed therefrom. Agronomic rates means the amount of animal waste and/or other nutrient sources to be applied to lands as outlined in NRCS NC Conservation Practice Standards No. 590 "Nutrient Management" and No. 633 "Waste Utilization" or as recommended by the NCDA&CS and the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service at the time of certification of the Animal Waste Management Plan by the appropriate certified technical specialist. Amendment to the CAWMP means a change and/or addition to a part(s) of the plan, and requires that the change and/or addition adhere to current applicable standards. The following are examples of amendments to the CAWMP: 13 February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 • In an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes 25% or less of the N generated is considered a plan amendment. Additional acreage needed to facilitate the change in crops and/or cropping pattern is permissible and considered part of the amendment. • The addition of winter crops and/or interseeded perennial crops are considered amendments to an existing CAWMP when the operation does not require additional acreage and/or crops for N utilization, and does not exceed the 25% criteria stated above. • When a CAWMP cannot meet N utilization requirements due to land lost to irrigation inefficiency (useable versus total acres), then the CAWMP may be amended to increase available acreage and/or change the crop for N utilization. This is the only exception to the 25% N criteria for plan revision. • Inclusions of emergency action plans, and insect, odor and mortality checklists are considered CAWMP amendments. • Including additional acreage for land application beyond what is required in the existing CAWMP is considered a plan amendment. Animal feeding operation means a lot or facility (other than an aquatic animal production facility) where the following conditions are met: (i) animals (other than aquatic animals) have been, are, or will be stabled or confined and fed or maintained for a total of forty five (45) days or more in any twelve (12) month period, and (ii) crops, vegetation, forage growth, or post -harvest residues are not sustained in the normal growing season over any portion of the lot or facility. Two or more animal feeding operations under common ownership are considered to be a single animal feeding operation if they adjoin each other, or if they use a common area or system for the disposal of wastes. Certification means technical specialist certification of the CAWMP in accordance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 02T .1304. It is unrelated to terms "Annual Certification' as used in Condition III.14 of this Permit, and the "No Discharge Certification Option" allowed by the November 2008 EPA CAFO Rule. Ditch means any man made channel for the purpose of moving water off a site to the surface waters. Excessive Ponding means any area of the application field where visible liquid waste is ponded on the surface of the land application site more than four (4) hours following the application of waste. Excessive ponding also means any areas where the ponding of waste has resulted in crop failure. Groundwaters means any subsurface waters, as defined in 15A NCAC 2L .0102. Land application means the application of wastewater and/or waste solids onto or incorporation into the soil. Major changes to the CAWMP means changes in the number of animals, type of operation (feeder to finish to wean to feeder), retrofit of a lagoon, installation of a new irrigation system, and similar type changes. Recertification is only required for major changes to the CAWMP. Major changes to a facility must first be approved by DWQ. The new CAWMP and the certification shall be submitted with a request that the COC be amended to reflect the changes. The facility may not make the changes until a new or amended COC has been issued. 14 February 20, 2009 Permit Number AWG100000 Revision to the CAWMP means a change to an entire CAWMP to meet current applicable standards. A CAWMP must be revised if the operation cannot utilize all N nitrogen generated by the animal production in accordance with the existing CAWMP, except for the specific conditions noted in the CAWMP amendment criteria as previously defined. For an existing CAWMP, a change in crops and/or cropping pattern that utilizes more than 25% of the N generated by the operation is considered a plan revision. Any change to an existing CAWMP, whether an amendment or revision, must be signed and dated by both the producer and a technical specialist for the new CAWMP to be valid. A revision of the CAWMP does not require recertification. State Waters means all surface waters, wetlands, groundwaters and waters of the United States located in the State. Surface Waters means any stream, river, brook, swamp, lake, sound, tidal estuary, bay, creek, reservoir, waterway, or other surface body or surface accumulation of water, whether public or private, or natural or artificial, that is contained in, flows through, or borders upon any portion of the State of North Carolina, including any portion of the Atlantic Ocean over which the State has jurisdiction as well as any additional Waters of the United States which are located in the State. Waste means manure, animal waste, process wastewater and/or sludge generated at an animal feeding operation. Wetlands means areas that are inundated or saturated by an accumulation of surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do support a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions, as defined in 15A NCAC 2B .0202. This General Permit issued the 20th day of February, 2009. NORTH CAROLINA ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION H. Sullins North Carolina Division of Water Quality By Authority of the Environmental Management Commission Permit Number AWG100000 Director 15 February 20, 2009 I-Vaste Utilization Flan Producer: Coastal FG, ms 1 Name of Farm: P-43A Location: 506 A East Jefferso , St. Whiteville, N.C. 28472 Phone: (910)-648-6011 Type of Operation: Farrow -Feeder Number of Animal: 1872 Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon Method of Application: Irrigation Amount of waste produced per year: Amount of plant available N (PAN) producedlyear: County: Columbus REC'p APR 0 9 2009 13753 ton/year 12168 lbs./year 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 the 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 not be applied to land eroding at more 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 in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops 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 applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which RECEIVED I DENR PD\ Q Agwfer Prote+ APR 0 6 20B9 -43A Page 2 could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made fc the area receiving waste to be flexible so �s tc accommodate changing waste analysis content and the 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.

Available Nitrogen 12168 lbs. Surplus or deficit -613 lbs. 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. P-43A Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for 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 materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the 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. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters 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 field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 1872 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 9360 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 Ibslacre you will need 31 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 75 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate shou'd not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time if irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and oraai-ic solids. The application amount should not exceed the avalable water ho+ding capacity P-43A Page 4 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 irrrigate the acres shown in tables. 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. Tract No. Field No. Soil Type Crop Code Applic. Rate inlhr Applic.

In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. 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 instances 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. 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 have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of -waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION P-43A Page 6 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRE© SPECIFICATIONS 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 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). 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 that runoff does not occur offsite or to the surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not cov;red with waste iL. 3 depth that wou,-i inhibit ;�c-owt" The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. �0. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potentuai 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 b,-eaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residenrial property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). P-43A Page 7 REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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 he landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16.

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 pl CEIvE-D nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in the implementing your waste utilization plan in ordi r to IQ N 0 4 2007 maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environ nentally 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 not be applied to land eroding at more 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 in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops 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 applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which P-43A Page 2 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 the 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.

Available Nitrogen 12168 lbs. Surplus or deficit -613 lbs. 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. P-43A Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. 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 materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the 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. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters 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 field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 1872 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 9360 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 31 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 75 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the 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 P-43A Page 4 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 irrrigate the acres shown_ in tables. 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. Tract No. Field No. Soil Type Crop Code Applic. Rate inlhr Applic.

In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. 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 instances 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. 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 have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION P-43A Page 6 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 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.) Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate that runoff does not occur offsite or to the surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 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 potentuai for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residenrial property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). P43A Page 7 REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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 he landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegtation 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 evidences 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 illigal 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.

We used heavy equipment to clean out ditches to improve surface water drainage. Total Cost $4,000.00 Grand Total Cost $215,000.00 While it is the goal of Coastal Farms #1 to keep our lagoon well within the required freeboard, the chronic rainfall events that occurred through the winter months greatly deterred our efforts, as irrigation had to be reduced to a minimum. Due to ice, snow, and rainstorms there was a three week period in January no effluent was irrigated. During this time we received approximately nine inches of precipitation. Coastal Farms #1 has spent a huge amount of money and made an effort to do what is right for the land and environment.

Per your request, I am submitting a written response regarding corrective actions taken or planned by Coastal Farms, LLC addressing the issues you defined as violations on August 2, 1999. 1. We have addressed the equipment malfunction to prevent future irrigation within I00 feet of a well. 2_ We intend for the operator -in -charge to monitor the site more closely during future irrigation events. In reference to the two deficiencies found by your staff, I have consulted with Division of Soil and Water Pilot Program Inspector, Audrey Oxendine and her superiors on a plan of action, which will be implemented within the next six months.

Coke Gray Coastal Farms, LLC Coastal Farms #1 PO Box 339 Whiteville, NC 28472 Subject: • • NOTICE OF VIOLATION Coastal Farms #1 Facility Number: 24-22 Columbus County Dear Mr. Gray: This is to notify Coastal Farms, LLC, who holds a non -discharge permit for an animal waste disposal system pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217 and G.S. 143.215.1, of violations of Animal Waste Permit AWS240022. On August 2, 1999, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) inspected your animal operation and the lagoon serving this operation in response to a complaint of animal waste in a ditch. Two violations were discovered and are described below. 1. It was observed that animal waste had run-off the adjacent spray application field into a ditch that borders a wetland area along the farm path. Wetland areas and ditches are classified as waters of the state. The Operator -in -Charge (OIC) was not aware that this had occurred until it was discovered by our staff. This is a violation of Part I. Performance Standards, Section I of AWS240022 which prohibits the discharge of waste from the animal waste management system. The incident also violates Part II.Operation and Maintenance Requirements, Section 1 of AWS240022 whichrequires proper maintenance and operation of the animal waste management system. The OIC is responsible for thoroughly inspecting land application sites and buffers for any potential problems after a waste application event. Irrigation records indicated that waste was applied twice in the same day on Pull IA — this should be avoided here. Since cattle utilize the application fields, it is highly recommended that these fields be aerated periodically to improve drainage and minimize run-off potential. 127 North Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Coastal Farms, LLC August 27, 1999 Page 2 2. Waste was observed being applied within 60 feet of two wells which serve the animal operation. North Carolina statute, 15A NCAC 2H .0219, Part J Section 5B states that any public or private water supply source must have a permanent buffer of at least 100 feet established for areas receiving waste applications. Furthermore, the reel was not engaged allowing waste to be applied in the same area continuously. This was occurring when staff arrived and continued until shut down by the operator when he returned to the site approximately 30 minutes later. No waste was observed leaving the field, but it was becoming saturated. A well designed irrigation schematic and procedure should be implemented for waste application to this field or avoid utilization of this field if allowable under the certified Waste Utilization Plan. In addition, two other deficiencies existed at the site and should be addressed accordingly in the response to this Notice of Violation. 1. A Division of Soil & Water inspector associated with the pilot program conducted a follow-up site inspection on August 3,1999 in response to the events of the previous day. It was discovered that a pipe that transports waste to a field located near the farm entrance had been damaged and a small amount of waste was standing in the area. The damage had occurred where the pipe crosses a ditch line and is exposed to heavy cattle use. This potential problem was detected by DWQ staff during a visit to this farm on July 28, 1998. The operator was advised to encase this pipe and exclude cattle from having contact with the pipe. The pipe has apparently been repaired and encased. However, the cattle should be excluded via fencing and a ditch (stream) crossing constructed. Since ditch (stream) crossings are classified as waters of the state, they can be sampled for fecal coliform and turbidity violations. Both of these items should be completed in accordance with NRCS standards to prevent further problems. 2. During the same July 1998 visit it was noted that cattle were doing considerable damage to the wetland area adjacent to the spray field which was noted earlier with the discharge violation. Damage included compaction of soils, rutting, and complete removal of herbaceous groundcover. It was recommended that cattle be excluded from this entire area. This area contains cypress knees which are indicative of a wetland. This area was recently delineated as a wetland for an investigation to determine if additional clearing could be done to increase the current land application acreage. Since wetland areas are classified as waters of the state, they can be sampled for fecal coliform and turbidity violations. Therefore, it is highly recommended that cattle be limited in their use of this wetland area for shade by fencing approximately fifteen (15) feet inside the tree line. Fencing should be completed in accordance with NRCS standards to prevent further problems. This wetland area also serves as a good buffer to keep potential field runoff from leaving the site, thus should be preserved. Coastal Farms, LLC August 27, 1999 Page 3 To correct these violations and deficiencies, please submit a Plan of Action to the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality that describes the actions to be taken to comply with Animal Waste Permit AWS240022 . The plan should include the following: 1. The procedures followed to immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater. 2. A list of any and all modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges along with a timetable for the completion of the modifications. The proposed plan of action must be received by this office in writing within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of this notice. Upon approval and implementation of the plan, you must notify this office when the corrective actions are complete. A copy of the pertinent NRCS standards mentioned above are included with this correspondence. If the violations are not corrected, the Division of Water Quality may pursue additional civil penalties, injunctive relief, or permit revocation. If you have any questions concerning this matter please do not hesitate to contact either Mr. Dean HunkeIe or Mr. Stoney Mathis, of our Wilmington Regional Office at (910) 395-3900 or Steve Lewis in Raleigh at (919) 733-5083 Ext. 539.

Does not include culvert crossings. PURPOSE To improve water quality by controlling erosion where livestock or equipment must cross a ditch or stream by providing a single, stable crossing that permits exclusion of livestock from other area of the stream channel. CONDITIONS WHERE PRACTICE APPLIES On areas where livestock and/or equipment must cross a ditch or stream. CRITERIA Location Where possible, stream crossings shall be located in areas where the stre:mbed is stable. Where practical, crossings shall be located just upstream of anv natural barrier such as a rock seam or large boulder. Avoid sites where channel grade or alignment changes abruptly, overfails exist, or large tributaries enter the stream. Wetland areas shall be completely avoided. If impact to wetlands cannot be avoided, consult the local Corps of Engineers representative for permit requirements. 376-1 Crossings shall be installed perpendicular to the direction of the flow of the stream. Skews shall be avoided on all but the smallest streams. Do not attempt to install stream crossings in a newly located or constructed channel. Establishing Grades The subgrade placement of the geotextile and the finished surface grade are critical factors in the design of a properly functioning stream crossing_ The geot=tile should be placed on excavated subgrades which are below potential scour lines. Stone surfacing should be no higher than the stable natural channel. Design subgrade and finished surface determined by analysis of the stream channel profile upstream and downstream of the proposed crossing location. Profiles shall be taken a minimum of 100 feet either side of the crossing cmterae at intervals not to exceed 20 feet_ The plotted profile shall be analyzed to determine the ma.Yimum scour depth that should be expected at the crossing. The crossing shall be designed to place fabric filter in the channel below depth. Natural stable grade of the channel shall also be determined from the profile.. Surfacing stone placed in the channel shall not be higher than the natural stable at the crossing. Consertan vation practice sdards are rninved periodically and updatad if needed.

NC December, 1996 576-2 Clearing All trees and brush shall be removed from the area before excavation starts. The foundation shall be cleared of all stumps, roots, brush, sod, and other debris. All waste materials shall be disposed of in a sightly and workmanlike manner in designated areas out of the natural floodway. Foundation Excavation All material shall be removed from the foundation of the stream crossing to the depths, widths, and lengths required by the design. Excavation may be limited to one side of the stream at a time in order to facilitate diversion of the stream. It rnav be advantageous to divert the stream flows around the site using a pipe or ditch or to temporarily impound the stream during construction. Trenches shall be excavated along the upper ends of entrance and exit ramps and on both the upstream and downstream sides of the stream crossing. The geotextile small be toed into these trenches and the trenches backfilled with course stable soil 'or crushed stone. The down trench may be onutted on crossings with drainage areas less than ^300 acres_ Geoteatiles A geotextile (fabric filter cloth) shall be installed under the entire access as well as in the toe trenches. In the upstream toe trenches, the geotextile shall be back lapped over its own trench. The geotextde shall be a non -woven needld- punched material with a minimum tensile strength of 120 lbs. (minimum average roll value). The geotextile shall be placed on a grade parallel to the natural streambed prior to construction. Longitudinal ends of the geotextile shall be lapped back over the top of the backfill toe trench a minimum of one foot beyond the edge of the trench and anchored to the fabric using anchoring pins placed on five foot centers. When more that one «kith of geotextile is required, the do«-nstrearn panel shall be installed first.. The next upstream panel shall be installed With a minimum of 18 inches overlap over the first section_ Anchoring pins shall be installed on three feet centers six inches from the downstream edge of the lap. Pins shall penetrate both sections of geoteztile in the lap. See Form NC- ENG-45 for typical example_ Tears should be repaired immediately by removing all surface material and soil from the tear for minimum distance of 18 inches in all directions of the tear: Spread a new section of geotextile material over the cleared area and anchor with anchoring pins around all sides. Where stream channels are composed of stable course rocky material or solid bedrock; the requirement to extend the gectextile across the channel bottom may be waived upon the written approval of the area engine_r- Anchoring Picts Anchoring pins shall be fabricated using No. 3 reinforcing steel or material of equivalent or greater size and durability and shaped as shown on Form NC-ENG45. Ali anchor pins shall be installed with the top width ping perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of flow in the stream_ Pins shall be driven vertically into undisturbed soil to provide rrzximum resistance to removal. Surfacing Material Acceptable material consisting of coarse sands and/or gravel, if present in the foundation excavation, may be stockpiled for later use in the toe trenches or on the roadway. Large washed stone or creek gravel may be used to prepare a foundation for the geotextile in unstable soils. _Coarse. stone may be used as a subzrade-filler — between the geotextile and tE:e surfacing material. The surface of the crossing shall consist of a laver, a minimum of 8 inches thick., of course aQ_,gregate meeting the apprcxunaie gradation requirements of the North C_roiiga DOT for ABC course aggregate. «"`chew stone or Gravel shall be used in streams desi=,ated as North NRCS, NC DCCE NIME.R. 1996 5 76-3 r._ Carolina Designated Public Mountain Trout Waters and their upper tributaries. Surfacing material Will be spread such that a minimum of six inches of cover exists on the geotextile before tracked equipment is operated over it. Failure to cover the cloth with an adequate layer of stone at sites with fine sand or non -plastic silts and clays may result in the creation of "mud bubbles" in the geotextile. Finish Grades and Slopes Crossings shall be no less than 10 feet and no more than 20 feet wide in upstream direction between the fence posts. Entrance and exit slopes to the strewn crossing shall blend in with existing site conditions where possible, but shall not be steeper than 5 to 1. The entrance and exit slope should be underlain with a geomxtile and covered with stone or gravel the same as the stream bottom for a distance of at least 20 feet. Surface runoff shall be diverted around the entrance and exit slopes to prevent erosion of the surfacing materials. Runoff shall be diverted either upstream or downstream to a point from which it cannot flow back toward the entrance or exit ramp. The finished surfacing should be on the same grade as the natural streambed above and below the'site. Failure to match the natural st mmbed grade may result in erosion of the surfacing materials or undesirable siltation in the crossing area_ Construction Equipment Landowners and contractors should be advised of the use of proper equipment. Improper equipment ,vilI result in inability to properly construct the crossing and excessive cost of construction_ Fencing Stream channel areas above and below the stream crossing shall be permancntly fenced to prevent livestock access to the stream. When stream crossings are in pasture fields, a gate will be installed at the entrance of the crossing to prevent continuous livestock access to the stream_ Fence posts along each side of the crossing shall be installed inside the area covered with geotestile and stone. Fence posts with sharpened ends shall be driven through the geotextile in the center of the trenches. The wire should be placed on the downstream side of the posts -on each fence line. Strands of wire should not be continuous across the crossing, taut shall be cut above the normal high '- water line and secured lightly to the posts so that a buildup of trash will pull the wire away from the post, allowing the trash to move downstream. In fieu of break away fences across the stream, other appropriate means of preventing livestock access to the stream such as swinging gates, electrified chains, or positive control measures may be used. Fencing shall be built to meet NRCS Technical Guide Standard 3 82 - Fencing. Vegetation Disturbed areas not covered or protected shall be established to vegetation as soon as practicable after construction. Seed bed preparation, fertilizing, liming, seeding and mulching shall be in accordance with NRCS Technical Guide Standard 342-Critical Area Seeding. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS Plans and specifications for stream crossings shall be in keeping with this standard and shall describe the requirements for applying the practice to achieve its intended purpose. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The stream crossing will be inspected on a frequent basis and stone will replaced as needed. The stream crossing and assoc fence should be inspected after each major storm and all repairs made as needed. NRCS. NC DECEMBER. 1996 382-6 Rev. September 1994 fence will be attached according to manufacturer's recommendation. d. The fencing shall be fastened to steel line posts with either two -turns of 14 gauge galvanized steel or iron wire or the post manufacturer's special wire clips. e.• Wire shall be spliced by means of a Western Union splice or by suitable splice sleeves applied with a tool designed for the purpose. The Western Union splice shall have not less -than 8 wraps of each end about the other. All wraps shall be tightly wound and closely spaced. Splices made with splice.sleev_es shall have a tensile strength .not less than 80 percent -of -the strength of _the wire.=- _ 9. -streambank Protection Fencing will be placed -a minimum of 5-feet from the top of streambanks (10 feet in areas where banks are sloughing). Safety -.Fencing operations can result in painful and serious injury. The following safety measures are recommended. Wear heavy -gauntlet leather gloves to protect hands and wrists, ---and boots or high shoes to protect legs and ankles. Tough, close -fitting clothing will prevent catching on wire. When stretching barbed wire, stand on the opposite side of the post from the wire. Keep chains and wire stretching clamps in good condition. carry staples in container or apron instead of in your pockets. If you handle treated posts, do not rub hands or gloves on face or skin. 10. -Electric Fence - CRITERIA I. Permanent Electric Fence--- 1. Permanencv of fence. Permanent electric fence is constructed with the intent of being left in place for years. It is the equivalent of any standard non -electric permanent fence. `Therefore, 'fie criteria for permanent electric fence requires materials, design and construction that will last for many years with little maintenance. .. �AUG-RD-1999 MOIL 03:16 PM PRESTAGE FARMS FAX M0. 9105929552 �4 Prestage Farms, Inc, Date: ' To: Company : _^ Phone Number: Fax Number: ako - Number of es a including covershcet: pages g Initials of Transmitter: Comments: Company: Phone Number: Fax Numbr-r: P. 01/04 HIGHWAY 421 SOUTH - P.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial -fertilizer required for the crops on 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 and annual sail tests are 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 'arid leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied -to Land eroding at greater than 5 tdns per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated'soils or -on land -hen-the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. Td maximize the value of nutrient% for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution? the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more tha" 30 days prior to planting. 'Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility.

In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRYI, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLDI, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the DWQ staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571. Sincere Kerr T.

DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY GROUNDWATER SECTION TELEPHONE LOG 24 2 DATE: 9/17/99 TIME: Late AM SHEET: 1 OF 1 RECEIVED: X PLACED: PROJECT: Rising Residence/Coastal Farms #1 COUNTY: Columbus CONVERSATION WITH: Mr. Rising TELEPHONE: (910) 648-6386 AFFILIATION: Resident Adjacent to the farm. ABSTRACT OF CONVERSATION: Mr. Rising called to complain about the fact that Coastal Farms #1 is spraying on wet fields and the waste is just running off into the canals on his property that flow into the stream. i explained that in an emergency situation like this, they were allowed to spray on wet field if their lagoon was about to overtop. He said he understood that but that he was more concerned about the fact that they were doing this two weeks before the hurricane. He complained that he had called the Col. Co. Health Dept and that Neil Floyd had come out to look at the situation. Mr. Rising said he did not understand how Coastal Farms can keep spraying hog waste on wet field and allow it to flow onto his property canals and ditches. (As a note, Mr. Rising's on -site supply well has had nitrate values of 12.0 ppm detected in it.) He said that two people from the Water Quality Section (women?) had come out their and looked at the latest problem but that he didn't think they had actually done anything about it. He said he wants to know what Water Quality is going to do about this situation because he is fed up with Coastal Farms spraying on wet fields and impacting his property while our agency apparently does not penalize them for this activity. I asked Steve West if he knew anything about this and he printed up the last inspection reports for this farm for me from the FoxPro database. The reports do indicate that WQS visited the farm and observed run-off to the ditches. Mr. Rising wants someone from WQS to call him and tell him what we are doing to penalize the farm and prevent them from continuing to do this activity. cc: WiRO-GWS Files.

S 143.215.1, has been found to be in violation of its Animal Waste Permit. On January 27, 1998, staff from the Wilmington Office of the Division of Water Quality conducted a follow-up inspection of your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. It was observed that a broken pipe on a flush tank resulted in the release of animal waste to an adjacent storm water diversion in a spray field area. No discharge to waters of the State was observed at the time. In addition, the lagoon had insufficient freeboard of 8 inches. The Division of Water Quality may proceed to revoke Coastal Farms' permit unless the following conditions are completed: 1. Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater and/or list actions to correct the noted violation. 2. Make any and all modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges. 127 North Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper R. Coke Gray Page 2 To remain a permitted facility, all corrective actions must be made within seven (14) days. Failure to comply with the above conditions will cause the existing animal waste management system serving your animal operation to be considered in operation without a permit as required by North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1.

When the waste reaches the designed level, it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops an 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 and annual soil tests are 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 -'. I Soil types are important as they have different infiltration � , rn rates 'and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied -to C3 land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Da -no t ram-- -{yLn z apply waste on saturated-soiIs or -on land when -the surface is N frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions Should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. Td maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential C-C-1 for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or " not mare than 30 days prior to --� y p planting. Injecting the waste ` or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. The design of your waste management facility is based on the following: Amount of Waste Produced Per Year: DI animals x tons waste/animal/yr= tons total waste animals x �5 _ lbs. N/animal/year lbs./yr Available N Applying the above amount of waste is a big ,lob. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Your facility is designed for tGO days of storage. Therefore, it will need to be pumped every 6 months. Tract Field Soil Crop Yield Lbs. N Acres Lbs. N Month to No. No. Type :.Per Ac.

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN This plan will be implemented in the event that waste from your operation leaks, overflows, or runs off the site. You should NOT wait until these waste reach surface waters or leave your property to consider you have a problem. You should make every 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 anytime. 1) Stop the release of waste. Ospending 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 waste to fields at an acceptable rate • stop all additional flow to the lagoon " 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 BI 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: 1) stop recycle (flushing system) pump 2) stop irrigation pump 3) close valves to eliminate further discharge 41 separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow " flush system, houses, solid separators: 1) stdp recycle (flushing system) pump 2) stop irrigation pump 3) make sure no siphon effect has been created 4) separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow 0) 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 NCCES, WUP version 1, page 9 " if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes with compacted 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 damage. 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 at: 910-395-3900 : after hours, the emergency number is: 919-733-3942 . Your phone call should include: your name, acility, telephone number, the details of the incident, t le exact location of the facility, and the location or direction of the spill, weather and wind conditions, what corrective measures have been taken, and the seriousness of the situation. B) If the spill leaves the property or enters surface water, call the local EMS at: 911 . C) Instruct EMS to contact the local Health Department at: 910-640-6617 . D) Also contact the following other agencies: The Cooperative Extension Service at: 910-640-6605 . Your local Soil and Water Conservation District at: 910-642.2348 .

It was observed that the lagoon had insufficient freeboard. USDA -MRCS guidelines require a minimum of one foot and seven inches of freeboard. This is based on the amount of storage space needed to contain a 25-year, 24 hour design storm event without a discharge. NRCS requirements also specify that animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops. And that waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop on bare soil. The level of your waste lagoon needs to be lowered and maintained in accordance with the NRCS guidelines and the state 2H .0200 rules governing animal waste management systems. In addition, as was discussed during the inspection, the drainage ditches through the spray fields present a potential problem. These are high risk areas for excessive ponding and runoff. We suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation. 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3945 0 Telephone 910-395-3900 0 Fax 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer r I 'm 43 m ca v Q COa � Q a � c o d �a r-. in U Qmm 0 EL �a mm C V ~� L m :D z e ,v i I s CL 1 LL E IL s o SENDER: V ■ comptate items 1 andror 2 for additional services.

Health. and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality 127 Cardinal Drive Wilmington NC 28405-3845 Dear Mr. Wrenn: In response to your May 5. 1997 inspection of Coastal Farms 1: Facility Number 24-22. Coastal Farms 2: Facility Number 24-21. and Coastal Farms 3: Facility Number 24-9. the corrective action and projected completion time we have planned is outlined below. Action will be based on the comment section of the DWQ-Animal Feedlot Operation Site Inspection. Coastal Farm 1 (24-22) 5-Extreme.1care should be taken when sprayinq, because of drainaqe ditches running through fields. Proper buffers should be used to ensure runoff does not occur. When Farm 1 was established. the Natural ResourcesConservation Services(NRCS) office laid out the sod waterway through the fields and indicated we could pump across them. Field work is being done. The waterway is to be assessed by the NRCS. Their findings and suggestions to reduce the possibility of runoff will be followed. This should be completed within the next 30*days. Also the operator will be inserviced regarding buffer requirements -to reduce the chance of runoff. 8-Any nonoperational lagoons are required to have a closeout plan or waste management plan by December 31, 1997. This is an old lagoon that was on'the farm when purchased. We will discuss with the NRCS the possibility of setting up a waste management plan for the lagoon while they are at the farm to review waterways. 9--Inadequate freeboard was observed at the time of inspection. Lagoon has since been pumped down to a manageable level. Plans include continuing to pump it down during the summer months. Coastal Farm 2 (24-21) 5-Low areas in spray fields should be filled and graded to reduce ponding If from waste application. We are currently in the process of filling low areas and installing water- way in the spray field to eliminate ponding. This should be completed within the next 30 days. 13-Lagoon lacked marker to indicate start -stop pumping levels. Prestage Farms will install the marker once the lagoon .level is lowered. This is to be accomplished within the next 30 days. 14-Waste was observed ponding in spray fields from overapplication. A rotation schedule for spray guns will be established. Operator is to document gun location on a daily basis. This will ensure that the waste will be applied at agronomic rates. This procedure will be reviewed with operators immediately. A smaller nozzle gun will also be installed. 16/21-Crops in the spray field should correspond with those designated in the Animal Waste Management Plan. The fields have been planted to correspond with the Animal Waste Plan. At the time of inspection, a page that allowed waste to be applied to a cornfield as an addition to the plan was misplaced or overlooked. This is now in place in the plan. Coastal Farm 3 (24-9) 5-Leaky hydrant in Field #3 should be repaired. Trash was lodged in the hydrant. It was cleaned out and is now function- ing properly. All hydrants will be reinspected to be sure there are no current problems.. 9-Inadequate freeboard was observed at the time of the inspection. Lagoon is being pumped down and should be at the proper level within 30 days. Our goal is to continue to pump during the summer to keep the lagoon at a manageable level. 12-Low area by House C and D should be filled and reseeded within 30 days while contractor is working in spray fields. 13-Lagoon lacked marker to indicate start/stop pumping levels. Prestage Farms has indicated they will install marker when the lagoon level is lowered. This will be accomplished within 30 days. 16-Crop in spray fields should correspond with those designated by the Animal Waste Management Plan. See response for Question 16/21 for Coastal Farm 2. In summation, it is our desire to meet all the requirements set forth by state law and run our farm based on sound environmental practices. Any deficiencies found will be corrected and any recommendations you can make to assist our operation will be appreciated. I hope the corrective action outline in this response is satisfactory. Thank you for your assitance in this review. Sincerely, R. Coke Gray aw State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources James B. Hunt, Jr., Governor Jonathan B. Howes, Secretary November 12, 1996 Coastal Farms LLC Coastal Farms #1 506-A East Jefferson St Whiteville NC 28472 SUBJECT: Operator In Charge Designation Facility: Coastal Farms #1 Facility ID#: 24-22 Columbus County Dear Farm Owner: Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly, requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must'submit a designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H .0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty. If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office. Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.

When the waste reaches the designed level, it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water_ The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on 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 and annual soil tests are 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 infilkrat-ion rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied -to land eroding at greater than S tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated -soils or land when -the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind'odor problems. Td maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not mare than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Thq design of your waste management facility is based on the following! Amount of Waste Produced Per Year: animals x tons was te/animal/yr=LS62.,Ltons total waste 61 , animals x �,,� lbs. N/animal/year -1a.1 '7,� lbs./yr Ava i i able N Applying the above amount of waste is a big ,fob. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.

You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take. 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 --possible solutions are: a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam, any permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified technical specialist. b. Pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate. c. Stop all additional flow to the lagoon —hold waste in the house if possible. d. Call a pumping contractor. e. Make sure' no surface water is entering lagoon. P. Runoff from waste application field —action include: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff. e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers —action include: a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. D. Leakage from flush system, houses, solids separators --actions include: a. Stop recycle (flushing system) pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Make sure no siphon effect has been created. d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separ-at ors. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -possible action: a. Dig a small sump or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon. b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and the lagoon bottom as soon as possible. E. 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? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g. Are potable water wells in danger (either an or off of the property)? h. How much reached surface waters? 3. Contact appropriate agencies. a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality) regional office, at 910-395-3900, after hours, emergency number:919-733-394E.
