Box 856 Warsaw, NC 28398 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN Grower(s): Mark and Tommy Johnson Farm Name: Mark and Tommy Johnson Nursery County: Columbus Farm Capacity: Farrow to Wean Farrow to Feeder Farrow to Finish Wean to Feeder 6400 Feeder to Finish Storage Structure: Storage Period: 'PR 2 zoaq Application Method: Irrigation Anaerobic Lagoon >180 days The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollutiol�~l—' of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1.- Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste_ Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems- 1 of 8 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. 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.

You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. LAND UTILIZATION SUMMARY The following table describes the nutrient balance and land utilization rate for this facility Note that the Nitrogen Balance for Crops indicates the ratio of the amount of nitrogen produced on this facility to the amount of nitrogen that the crops under irrigation may uptake and utilize in the normal growing season. Total Irrigated Acreage: 30.62 Total N Required 1st Year: 4519.5269 Total N Required 2nd Year: 0 Average Annual Nitrogen Requirement of Crops: 4,519.53 Total Nitrogen Produced by Farm: 3,072.00 Nitrogen Balance for Crops: (1,447.53) The following table describes the specifications of the hydrants and fields that contain the crops designated for utilization of the nitrogen produced on this facility. This chart describes the size, soil characteristics, and uptake rate for each crop in the specified crop rotation schedule for this facility. 2 of 8 P4AI A4 A/ Reception Area Specifications NMI����������0 v� 3(a) of B .Reception Area Specifications Tract Field Irrigated Soil IS1 Crop Tim* to Ist Crop lit Crop Lbs KfAc Lbs-N Acreage Typo Code Apply Yield lbs N/Unil Residual /Ac Utilized 3(b) of 8 This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. 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 berrnuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately 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 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 cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. 4 of 8 SLUDGE APPLICATION: The following table describes the annual nitrogen accumulation rate per animal in the lagoon sludge Farm Specifications PANT rlanimal Farm Totallyr Farrow to Wean 0.84 Farrow to Feeder 1 Farrow to Finish 4.1 6400 Wean to Feeder 0.072 460.8 Feeder to Finish 0.36 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 460.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2304 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 7 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 18.432 acres of land. Please note that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. 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 the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. 'This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste 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 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 receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste. 5 of 8 Application Rafe Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, recieving crop type, or available land. 3 Animal waste shall be applied_to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 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 land application field. 6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 1 of 3 NUTRIENT UTILMATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11 Any new swine facility sited on. or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. 12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist'. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 2 of 3 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19 Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.

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. ERR I, IRR2, DRY I, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR I, SLUR2, SLD1, 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.

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 (919) 733-0026. 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. Sincerely, ,�} )"i /7 %►L�,yr�.

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 not 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 PIan 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.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual "soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. 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.): 6400 animals X 222.65 gallanimallyear = 1,424,960 gallons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (Ibs): 6400 animals X 0.48 Ibs/animal/year = 3,072.00 Ibs 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. Page: 2 The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type, and surface application. Tract Field Soil Type Crop I Code Yield /Ac Ibs N /unit Acres Lbs NIAc Residual Lbs N IAc Ibs N [Required Time to Apply 437 6 WaB B 4.7 50.00 5.00 I 235.0 1175.00 Mar -Oct 437 4 Pa B 4.1 50.00 8.98 205.0 1840.90 Mar -Oct 437 --6 WaB K 50.00 5.00 I 50.0 250.00 S-April 437 --4 Pa K 50.00 8.98 ► 50.0 449.00 S-April Total 14.0 Available N "Difference 3714.90 3072.00 -642.90 Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or winter annuals follow summer annuals. *A negative number reflects the total Ibs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the nitrogen produced by the farm. NOTE: This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. 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 bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately 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 Page: 3 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 cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. The following legend explains the crop codes listed in the table above: Crop Code Croa A Barley B Hybrid Bermudagrass - Grazed C Hybrid Bermudagrass - Hay D Corn - Grain E Com - Silage F Cotton G Fescue- Grazed H Fescue- Hay I Oats J Rye K Small Grain - Grazed L Small Grain - Hay M Grain Sorghum N Wheat O Soybean Lbs N utilized / unit yield 1.6 Ibs N / bushel 50 Ibs N / ton 50 Ibs N / ton 1.25 Ibs N / bushel 12 Ibs N / ton 0.12 Ibs N / Ibs lint 50 ibs N / ton 50 Ibs N / ton 1.3 Ibs N / bushel 2.4 Ibs N / bushel 100 Ibs N / acre 133 Ibs N / acre 2.5lbsN/cwt 2.4 Ibs N / bushel 4.0 Ibs N / bushel Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 0.072 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the sludge based on the application method listed earlier. Page: 4 11 If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2304.00 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 7.68 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 18.43 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and applications. 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 the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Tract Field Soil Type Crop Application Rate ; inlhr 437 6 WaB B 0.60 437 4 Pa B 0.45 437 —6 WaB K 0.60 437 —4 Pa K 0.40 Application Amount * inches 1.00 1.50 1.00 1.50 *This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste 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. Page: 5 It is the responsiability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure -,hat the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres 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 receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has a notarized agreement for use of adequate Iand 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 a notarized 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 Flan when there is a change in the operai ton, 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. Actual yields may be caved in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding Iess than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acres per rear providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393-Filter Strips) 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 occure during a season prone to flooding. (See "Wlieuther 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 occure off --site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt daniage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high.potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a sukdbTe, mF r cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a 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 componet of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feel from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1. 1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present (Ste Standard 393 - Filter Strip.). NRCS WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN SPECIFICATIONS (CON'TNUED) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those ovmed by landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other propery and public right-of-ways. 13. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over- sprayin& Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste applied on grassed waterways shall be at agronomic rates and 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 vegetation will be established on aII disturbed areas {lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the tegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where eotisidered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should he inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is 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 si te. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetalbles and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it alluuld only be applied preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible permanenet 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 siarape vokune fur waste storage ponds. 22. Soil tests shall be made every year, and a liquid waste analysis :Mall be taken within 60 days of application consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry sitter shall be tested prior to application. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations.

Instructions on reverse side. 2. Attach additional sheets as needed. Date /' / r Date 4-11z/9 7 All dams built with technical assistance from the Sol! Conservation Service must have a hazard classification assigned by the person responsible for approving the design. Most farm ponds, except in borderline cases, can be classified after a complete field investigation without assuming failure and making breach studies. This data sheet is to be used for recording the information obtained through field studies and for documenting the hazard classification. Where there is a possibility for the loss of life or major property damage from a dam failure, an approved breach routing procedure is to be used. (Consult with the area engineer.) Hazard classifications of dams are made by evaluating the possibility for loss of life and the extent of damage that would result if the dam should suddenly breach that is a section of the dam be suddenly and completely washed out. It is to be assumed that a wall of water will be released equal to the height as it moves down the flood plain. The wave height (depth of flooding) should be evaluated for a sufficient distance downstream until the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements, such as homes, buildings, roads, utilities, reservoirs, etc. The breach flood level will be reduced depending on the valley storage, slope, and openness of the flood plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes steeper than 10% should be given special consideration. One method of evaluation is to compare available valley storage (under flood conditions) to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach evaluated with a judgment estivate made of the flood wave height at all critical points downstream. Should there be any questions about the hazard classification for a dam, the area engineer should be consulted before making design commitments. SHEET 1 OF 3 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ---------------------------------------------------------- FOUNDATION PREPARATION: ----------------------- The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be 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 EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: ----------------------------------- 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 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be in accord- ance with the specified requirements for compaction and moisture. For the embankment, use the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill.heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 ft. ------ --------------------------- ---------------------- NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a NRCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF 3 Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material unless otherwise specified. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: -------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS When specified, the contractor shall construct an observation trench along the entire length of the embankment to a minimum of five feet in depth. The trench shall have a bottom width adequate to accomodate the equipment used for excavation, backfill, and compaction operations SHEET 3 OF 3 and the side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. When tile drains are encountered, the tile shall be removed to a minimum of 15 feet beyond the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular to the embankment. If a tile line exists above the embankment it shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location. Backfilling and compaction in the trench shall be in accordance with the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements. BOTTOM AND EDGES --------------- The bottom of all lagoons shall be approximately level. The side slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller to decrease the permeability of the finished bottom and side slopes. QUALITY ASSURANCE ----------------- During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during construction as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required as deemed necessary by the inspector and/or designer. During construction of a clay liner, a qualified construction inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during con- struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (Revised September 1993).

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. 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. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 52.20 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 49.70 . This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 68441 cubic feet or 511938 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. 8. 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.

Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be in accord- ance with the specified requirements for compaction and moisture. For the embankment, use the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 ft.

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. 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. 3." Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 50.19 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 47.83 . This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 64916 cubic feet or 485575 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. 8. 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. 8 Lagoon Marker 1" PVC Pine PVC Pipe m s� .zr Paint top 21" R HAZARD CLASSIFICATION DATA SHEET FOR LAGOONS LandownerA�_ ��i►T 'P *JSa-J s17�7� County— l tule/1yl Community or Group No. Conservation Plan No. Estimated Depth of Water to Top of Dam Ft.

Date 7 — f- 9 7 Date 47--- All dams built with technical assistance from the Soil Conservation Service must have a hazard classification assigned by the person responsible for approving the design. Most farm ponds, except in borderline cases, can be classified after a complete field investigation without assuming failure and making breach studies. This data sheet is to be used for recording the information obtained through field studies and for documenting the hazard classification. Where there is a possibility for the loss of life or major property damage from a dam failure, an approved breach routing procedure is to be used. (Consult with the area engineer.) Hazard classifications of dams are made by evaluating the possibility for loss of life and the extent of damage that would result if the dam should suddenly breach that is a section of the dam be suddenly and completely washed out. It is to be assumed that a wall of water will be released equal to the height as it moves down the flood plain. The wave height (depth of flooding) should be evaluated for a sufficient distance downstream until the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements, such as homes, buildings, roads, utilities, reservoirs, etc. The breach flood level will be reduced depending on the valley storage, slope, and openness of the flood plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes steeper than 10% should be given special consideration. One method of evaluation is to compare available valley storage (under flood conditions) to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach evaluated with a judgment estivate made of the flood wave height at all critical points downstream. Should there be any questions about the hazard classification for a dam, the area engineer should be consulted before making design commitments. > I'YI'ICAL X—SEC-I'ION. TDM ELM 50.000 NAIL IN;_WN .

The waste utilization plan was developed by Brown's of Carolina, Inc. staff and approved by Jimmy Vinson on April 11, 1997. The facility will produce approximately 3072 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year. An additional 461 pounds of PAN must be accounted for annually, produced in the form of sludge. It may take approximately five to ten years before sludge will begin to be applied in the irrigation process or by some other means. The landowner has sufficient land other than listed in this design to utilize the PAN produced in sludge. Crops to be grown include hybrid bermudagrass grazed and over seeded grazed small grain. The total land available for land application is 21 acres. Of that acreage, 13.6 acres can be effectively irrigated with the designed system. This acreage is sufficient to meet the PAN produced by this facility using the crops and realistic yields as listed in the approved waste utilization plan. The system designed will cover 4.7 acres of Field 96 and 8.9 acres of Field #4. The crop listed on this acreage will utilize 3609 pounds of PAN per year while the farm should produce 3072 pounds per year. Based on the soil types and realistic yields, this cropping system will also accommodate the 461 pounds of sludge PAN if removed annually. Soil types on the farm in the area of waste water application are Pantego and Wagram. The Pantego series is a very poorly drained coastal plain and terrace soil with loamy surface layers and friable loamy subsoil. NRCS recommended application rate and depth of application per cycle are 0.45 inches per hour (iph) and 1.5 inches, respectively. Permeability is 2.0 to 6.0 iph in the top 20 inches and 0.6 to 2.0 iph in the top 80". The Wagram soil is well drained with a high permeability rate. NRCS recommended application rate and depth are 0.60 inches per hour and 1.0 inches, respectively. Permeability is 6.0 to 20 iph in the top 23" and 0.6 to 2.0 iph in the top 77". A solid set permanent irrigation system is recommended. All sprinklers will be single nozzle and will include both half and full circle. Spacing on all sprinklers is 140 feet between sprinklers along each lateral and 140 feet between the laterals. The sprinkler wetted radius is approximately 112.5 feet. The spacing is approximately 60% of the wetted diameter of the sprinkler throw. This spacing should provide a coefficient of uniformity of approximately 77%. Recommended average sprinkler operating pressure is 50 psi. A minimum buffer of 25 feet is observed around the perimeter of the spray field. There is an open well on site that should be declared as inoperative and completely filled with concrete. This will allow a more efficient system design by not requiring the 100 foot setback from the well. Certified closure of the well is required as part of the "Application and Handling Equipment Installation" certification. There is also a small earthen watering hole along the north side of Field 4. Although the area is outside the design sprayfield, it is recommended to fill and level this area to prevent potential runoff into surface water. The main and lateral lines shall be 4-inch Class 160 IPS, PVC bell and gasket plastic pipe. The pumping unit will be a 10 hp electric motor with a Berkeley B1.5TPM centrifugal pump end, or equal. A 3-inch brass gate valve will control the flow of the water in the main line. A 4-inch lagoon riser will be used for the ground entry of the main line and will be accompanied by a pressure gauge, air relief, and pressure relief valves. These valves will be 2-inch aluminum valves. The system will consist of one Nelson Full Circle 100 Big Gun, and one Nelson Part Circle 100 Big Gun. The guns will be mounted on 2-inch risers with camlock tops. Each riser will be equipped with a 2-inch plastic ball valve to allow the operator to remove the sprinklers without shutting the system down. Air relief valves will be placed at the end of each line to eliminate any damage from water hammer. A 30 inch by 6 inch concrete pad will be poured around each riser to prevent the riser from any damaging movement. Thrust blocks will be installed where the supply line comes from the pump and makes its ground entry, and at all tees, ells, and ends of laterals. The pump and electric motor should be a 10 hp single phase with a capacity of 148 gpm at 178 feet TDH, a pump efficiency of 65% or greater, and a NPSHR less than 10 feet. The pump will be equipped with a 1.5 inch by 2 inch discharge priming valve to prevent water from backing through the system when not in use. There also will be a properly sized starter panel and a main disconnect. This panel will be equipped with proper size fuses for the safety of the electric motor. On the suction side of the pump there will be a 4-inch supply line with a 4-inch basket strainer. The line will be floated to prevent settlement on the bottom of the lagoon. System Operation This system is a single zone system. Even though the field has two separate soil types with different recommended application rates, it is our recommendation to design and operate the system uniformly throughout, while using the most limiting parameters. Table 1 below shows information on the two fields incorporated into the design. As the table shows, although NRCS allows up to 1.5" depth of application, it is recommended to limit single irrigation events to 0.5 inch in order to reduce the risk of runoff, with winter applications being further reduced to approximately 0.3". Also, the target calculated precipitation rate for individual sprinkler operation (no sprinklers operating adjacently, so no overlap of spray), will be approximately 0.4 in./hr. The combination of maintaining a low rate with a low application depth should insure that no runoff will occur as long as other factors discussed below are considered. Since the lagoons include 180 day pumping storage, it is important that pumping occurs regularly, with the last application on coastal bermuda prior to frost and the first application as early in the spring as possible. It will take approximately 225 hours per year of pumping to manage this facility, based on pumping volume estimates in the two lagoons on site. It is important that the operator follow this plan as well as the waste management plan. When applying irrigation, the operator should take notice of the conditions and follow NRCS Waste Utilization Specifications. The specified amounts of wastewater sprayed per cycle are 1.5" for Pantego and 1" for Wagram as stated in the waste utilization plan. It is our recommendation, however, that applications should not exceed 0.5" per application. We feel that 0.5" is a sufficient amount of water to apply per cycle on the given crops and realistic yields. There should not be another application applied until the amount applied in the previous cycle has been used by evapotranspiration (ET). This usually takes approximately three to five days, depending on the climate and soils of the area. During the winter months when temperatures are below freezing, the risers need to be drained at least into the lateral lines. Water should not freeze at a depth of 30 inches which is the recommended depth for both lateral and main lines. The pump, suction, and discharge should all be drained during freezing temperatures. Spraying should never take place during freezing temperatures. It is also important not to spray when the soil is saturated and ponding or runoff is likely. Spraying should not occur when the wind speed is more than ten miles per hour. Sprinklers and air relief/vacuum release valves should be checked periodically to ensure that they are operating properly. Check to ensure that the pressure gauge at the pump is operating properly. It is not necessary for the pump and panel to be under shelters, but it is highly recommended. TABLE 1: FIELD SPECIFICATIONS Tract -Field Acres Slope Soil Type Crop App Rate Max App per Cycle Irrig.

A sprinkler precipitation rate will be selected to be less than the infiltration rate of the most restrictive soil. **Although the NRCS has indicated that 1.5" can be applied at one time, it is suggested that the total application be limited to 0.5" and space the applications several days apart. This will help rcducc the potential for runoff. SOLID SET IRRIGATION SPRINKLER SETTINGS The solid set system will utilize Nelson 17100 and Nelson SR100 sprinklers with 0.6" taper bore nozzles, 24 degree guns. System layout includes 19 full circle and 22 half circle throws. Of these, 7 full and 7 part circles cover Field #6, 12 full and 15 part circles cover Field 94. Using the effective wetted diameter of 140 feet, 4.7 acres of Field 46 and 8.9 acres of Field #4 will be uniformly irrigated. Precipitation rate (PR) for the individual full circle throw is calculated assuming that no adjacent sprinkler is operated simultaneously. Thus, the effective wetted radius can be considered as 90% of total wetted radius, resulting in a PR for the full circle sprinkler of 0.22 in./hr., well below the design maximum rate. Since the half circle sprinklers have the same flow rate and cover only half the effective wetted area, the PR for them is twice the PR of the full circles, or 0.44 in./hr., also within the design maximurn rate. Limiting the depth of application to 0.5 inches allows for further safety in the design. As shown in Table 2, it is recommended to set the operating times at 2 hours per full circle sprinkler and 1 hour for half circle sprinklers. This will result in simple recordkeeping for the owner, and will result in the same application depth throughout the fields. Using these operating times, the application depth per e-vent is 0.44 inches. The owner should keep records of applications by individual sprinklers by attaching a sprinkler number such as 1-1,1-2,1-3, etc. for sprinklers I, 2, and 3 along lateral # 1. it should be noted again that two overlapping sprinklers should never be operated simultaneously, as this increases the effective pricipitation rate in the overlapped area. Also, operation may be simplified by operating such that two full circle or two half circle sprinklers are operated simultaneously, so that run time is the same for both. Effective irrigated acres is calculated by using the lateral and sprinkler spacing of 140 feet, with the half circles counted as half the irrigated area.

Mainline material is normally steel, aluminum with couplers, cement asbestos or plastic. Sizes can range from 5" to 48" plus. The following information may be used as a guide. Please consult with manufacturer for specific design and installation information. Generally with center pivot, a water source at the pivot is most convenient. When water is unavail- able at the pivot, a mainline pipe is often used to connect the pivot to the water supply. To avoid in- terference with farm operations and drive unit crossing, the mainline is generally buried. The proper size of mainline is a decision of economics. Whenever the yearly cost of owning a larger pipe size is greater than the yearly pumping cost for pumping through the next smaller pipe size; then one should use the smaller size pipe. A good rule of thumb would be not to exceed a velocity of water in the pipe of five (5) feet per second. Water velocity in feet per second in a pipe can be determined by the following formula: Mainline Water Velocity V = (0.408) (GPM) D2 Where V = velocity in feet per second, GPM = gallons per minute, and D = inside diameter of circular conduit in inches'. Pipe thickness or class should be selected to handle the highest pressures likely to be encountered. Because of the variable pressure operation of the corner system, the mainline pipe should be designed to operate at a pressure of 30-40 PSI greater than the selected pivot pressure. The selection of flat pump curves will be helpful in reducing the pressure fluctuations with the corner system. FRICTION LOSS IN PIPE Water flowing in a pipeline is always accompanied by a loss of pressure due to friction. The degree or amount of loss depends on the smoothness of the inside of the pipe walls, the diameter of the pipe, the velocity, the quantity of water flowing in the pipe. Friction factors of pipe are determined by experiments. Every type of material pipe is made from (steel, PVC, etc.) has different friction loss characteristics. The Hazen and Williams formula is the basis for many friction loss calculations. Friction loss (F) is in units of "feet per 100 foot of pipe." Dividing by 2.31, friction loss is converted to "PSI per 100 foot of pipe." 1.85 .2083 (1001 01.85 F _ C l D4.8655 Where: C' = friction factor for various pipes (Figure 3) Q = GPM of flow D = pipe diameter in inches F = feet of head per 100 foot of pipe 'Irrigation Short Course 1976 'Coefficient of Flow Bob Mulliner . Irrigation Consultant Hastings, Nebraska 2-7 12-91 FIGURE 3: Coefficient of Flow Pipe C-Value Old Steel 100 Aluminum with couplers 120 Cement Asbestos 140 Plastic 150 As you can see, this formula is quite complicated. Figure 4 is a chart showing pressure losses and velocity for various pipe sizes at various gallonages (NOTE: Chart is for class 160 PVC with a C Value of 150). EXAMPLE: Pipe = PVC (Class 160) Size = 10" GPM = 1000 GPM Length of Mainline = 1300' From the chart, we find the PSI loss per 100' _ .21 x 1300' = 2.73 PSI over 1300' of run 100 Head = 2.73 x 2.31 = 6.28' of head over 1300' of run Velocity (V) = 4.15 ftlsecond We can use the chart along with the conversion factors fist on Figure 4 to determine friction loss for steel, aluminum and asbestos cement. EXAMPLE: Pipe = Steel Size = 10" GPM = 1000 Length = 1300' Friction loss in 1300' PVC Factor for steel Friction loss for 1300' of steel = 2.73 PSI = 6.30' head x2.12 x2.12 = 5.78 PSI or 13.36' head Velocity (V) = 4.15'Isec. (same as PVC in previous example) A RainBird slide rule makes this determination very rapidly without need for calculation. After obtaining the friction loss per 100 foot of pipe and multiplying this by the feet of pipe divid- ed by 100, the total pipeline friction loss is known and can be used in the total head determina- tion as well as compared economically for proper pipe size. You may incur instances where either the chart in Figure 4 or the RainBird slide rule cannot be used. It will then be necessary to calculate the friction loss and velocity. To do this, use the formula in Figure 5. 2-8 DAVID D. DAVIS and ASSOCIATES Safe Filling Rates.For Mainline Pipe It is very important when filling an empty or near empty mainline not to exceed velocities of 0.5 to 1.0 feet per second. Filling a mainline faster than 1.0 fps may not allow the air in the pipe to be properly evacuated. Therefore the following chart indicates the approximate maximum f-;ll rate (GPM) for most PVC, AC and ductile iron pipe lines. Nominal Maximum Diameter- Fill Rate - Inches (gpm) 2 11 21 15 3 24 4 40 6 80 8 150 10 250 12 350 14 475 16 620 18 780 20 980 24 1400 Pump Stations should be selected that will allow the fill rate to be adjusted accordingly. The fill rate can be increased at a rate of one (1) gpm every two,or three seconds. This amounts to an average increase of 30 gpm every minute during a refill operation. It is necessary to use a "refill procedure" anytime a mainline has drained down by 10% a1 its volume capacity. INSTALLATION Table 4. DESCRIPTION OF F:MBF.DMF.NT MATERIAL CLASSIMCATIONS �iamond Agricultural PVC Pipe should be assembled and installed with uniform and continuous support from a firm base in accordance with the installation procedures provided in ASTM D2321, and the Installation Guide for PVC Water Pipe (a "pocket -sized" edition is available from your representative or from Diamond Plastics Corporation.) k. Embedment materials are to be in accordance with soil classifications listed under Unified Soil Classification System, ASTM D2487 and ASTM D2488. Te assemble, clean mating surfaces of the bell, spigot, and gasket. Apply gasket lubricant (furnished by Diamond Plastics Corporation) to the entire spigot end up to the reference mark. Also, apply lubricant to the contact surface of the gasket. With the pipe in straight alignment, push the spigot into the bell up to the insertion line. If a pry bar is used to apply force, the pipe should be protected by placing a board between the bar and the pipe. If normal force does not complete the joint, disassemble the joint and examine the parts to make certian they are free of obstructions. Visually inspect the completed joint to insure the gasket has not been dislodged. Table 5.

The haunching area is most important to the support of PVC pipe. For good support, the haunching area should be compacted to the densities given in the Long Term Deflection Chart. Figure 2. 12.91 THRUSTBLOCKS3 Thrust blocking prevents main line from moving when the pressure load is applied. In ef- fect, the thrust block transfers the load from the pipe to a wider load bearing surface. Thrust blocks are required where fittings are used to change the direction (i.e., at all ties, elbows, Wyes, caps, valves, hydrants and reducers) of the pipeline. The thrust backing must be formed against a solid trench wall and these fitting areas must be excavated by hand because mechanical equipment will damage the bearing surface of the trench wall. The size and type of thrust block depends on pipe size, line pressure, type of fitting, degree of bend and type of soil. In most cases, the size and type of thrust block will be determined by the engineer. Thrust block size may be calculated by the procedures shown: STEP 1. Multiply the pipe pressure by the appropriate value shown in the following table to get pounds thrust per psi working pressure.

They can be constructed from available lumber if braced properly. However, the recommended blocking is concrete which is calculated to have a compres- sion strength of 2,000 pounds per square inch. The mixture is one part cement, two parts washed sand and five parts gravel. Thrust blocks should be constructed so the bearing surface is in direct line with the major force created by the pipe or fitting. See diagram. The earth bearing surface should be undis- turbed. Only the simplest of forms is required. Typical thrust block installations are shown in Figure 8.

The gate valve or butterfly valve should be opened slowly to allow the lines to fill slowly, to avoid any sudden water hammer in the pvc pipe. Once the lines are filled and you have water corning out of the guns, the valve should be adjusted to the specified pressure in the Irrigation Plan. Each gun should be run on a riser for no more time than specified by the Irrigation Plan. 2) Shutdown: Shutdown only involves shutting down the power to your electric pump and motor. The guns should be removed and the risers capped off to avoid any .extra application of water. 3) Regular Maintenance: Regular checkups and inspections should be made of the pump, suction line; risers, and guns. The suction should be kept clear of any trash, the guns, pump and motor should be kept greased. All electrical connections should be kept to code at all times. 4) Winterization: All lines should be drained as much as possible. Suction line should be removed from the water. Guns should be removed from risers and the risers should be capped off. 17 ie pump and motor should be drained and greased I IRRIGATION SYSTEM CALIBRATION DATA SHEET FOR STATIONARY SPRDUMM Date Farm Tract No. z.

PLAN Grower(s): Farm Name: County: Farm Type: Farm Capacity: Storage Structure: Storage Period: Application Method: Marls & Tommy Johnson Columbus Wean -Feed 8400 Anaerobic Lagoon 180 days Irrigation The wasto from your animal fnollity must bo 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 marimlz0 the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that It is applied in an environmentally safe mariner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. ❑o not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are Important as they have different in iltralon rates, leaching poter+tials, cation exchangs capacities, and available water holding capacities. 9, Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding ;t 5 or mnre tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 FROM : Environmental Ag Services, Inc PHONE NO. : 9105925519 Apr. 29 1997 01:34PM P02 5. Wired oonditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. B. 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 eonsorve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan Is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to changa methods In the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the some. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste Is based on typical nutrient content for this type of 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 tleAble to as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type, time must be applied to maintain pH In the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, If canned 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.)- e400 animals X 222.85 gallanimallyear = 1,424,9e0 gallons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (lbs): 6400 animals X 0.48 Ibslanimallyear = 3,072.00 lbs Applying the above amount of waste is a big job.

A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the nitrogen produced by the farm. NOTE: This plan does not Include commercial fertilizer, The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above, 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 nutriont management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( Le. small grain, etc, Intersaaded in her muda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they roach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed whoa plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result If small grain gets too high and this will defnately 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 Page: 3 i FROM : Environmental A9 Services, Inc PKINE NO. : 9105925519 Apr. 29 1997 01:36PM PO4 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 thei 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 cut to a height of about two Inches before drilling for best results. The foilowing legend explains the crop codes listed In the table above: M ..

Actual totai acres In the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the flelds 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 0.072 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the sludge based on the application method listed earlier. Page: 4 FROM : Environmental A9 Services, Inc PHONE NO. : 9105925519 Apr. 29 1997 01:37PM P05 if you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2304.00 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to bermudagrass Iiayland at the rate of 3tm pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 7.b acres f land. If you apply the sludge to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you wl need 18.43 acres of land, Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land heetred. Actual requirements could vary by 26% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and applicauOns. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION: The InIgation 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 the praceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.
