The sequence of events on Thursday 1/22/15 was: 1) The LNM tech for the site had been irrigating and after the last event during an inspection of the site he found a hydrant that had failed. 2) Upon finding the broken hydrant the tech immediately began containment efforts and calling management to report the incident. As soon as I was notified I enlisted employees to bring in pumping equipment and a mini excavator to effectively contain the effluent. I headed out to the site and called my supervisor to inform him of the incident. 3) After inspecting the site to ensure the effluent was contained and that the cleanup procedures were in place, I called Kevin Rowland with DWR to report the spill. . 4) Remediation included pumping the effluent onto spray fields that are a part of the farms nutrient utilization plan. Cleanup efforts were ongoing during DWR's site visit on Friday and were completed that afternoon. 5) Our LNM crew brought in trash pumps to aid in the recovery efforts. We invested over 80 man hours in efforts to recover the effluent from the discharge. Our team pumped and land applied approximately 32,000 gallons of water that was mixed with effluent on crop fields that are in the NUP. 6) Root Cause: A faulty in ground valve allowed a section of the irrigation system to be pressurized when it was thought to be closed off. A schedule 40 PVC pipe fitting on a hydrant broke during the irrigation event allowing effluent to escape the system. Estimate of the discharge: 1) In our estimation not more than 6,000 gallons of swine effluent was spilled from the hydrant, with a portion staying in a low area of the field. The remainder left the field mixing with the existing water in the ditch. • Page 2 The plan to correct the problems identified from this accidental discharge are: 1) Replace the broken hydrant. The broken hydrant has been replaced with a new galvanized hydrant 2) Replace the in ground valve with a new gate valve. The valve has been replaced with a new gate valve 3) Plant a cover crop on field 27 and 28 to uptake nutrients from the water that was pumped on the field during recovery. A cover crop has been planted across the area where the nutrients were applied 4) Install a flow control gate on the ditch where the spill occurred and inspect the rest of the site for additional control gates where needed. A new flow control gate has been ordered for the ditch where the spill occurred, I will notify you just as soon as the gate installed Included with this letter is a copy of the most current waste analysis as required by the permit. I have outlined what information I have available as they relate to this accidental discharge. I feel that Murphy -Brown LLC has responded in an appropriate and responsible manner to the conditions of the permit. The Environmental Management System (EMS) proved its' effectiveness by providing the structure and protocol that all parties involved in the response, did so in a timely and effective manner. If I can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me.

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 11 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.

Totals: 25.38 6868.103 3018.48 9886.583 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 definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on 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. 4of11 SLUDGE APPLICATION: The following table describes the annual nitrogen accumulation rate per animal in the lagoon sludge Farm Specifications PANjyrlanimal Farm Total/ r Farrow to Wean 0.84 Farrow to Feeder 1 Farrow to Finish 4.1 14375 Wean to Finish 0.306 Wean to Feeder 0.072 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 0 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 0 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 0 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 0 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.

I/we know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treatment and/or storage system, or construction of new facilities, will require a new nutrient management plan and a new certification to be submitted to DWQ before the new animals are stocked. Itwe understand that I must own or have access to equipment, primarily irrigation equipment, to land apply the animal waste described in this nutrient management plan. This equipment must be available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge occurs from the lagoon in the event of a 25 year 24 hour storm. I also certify that the waste will be applied on the land according to this plan at the appropriate times and at rates which produce no runoff. This plan will be filed on site at the farm office and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request. Name of Facility Owner: Murphy -Brown, LLC Signature: Name of Manager (if different from owner): Signature: David Nordin Name of Technical Specialist: Toni W. King Affiliation: Murphy -Brown, LLC.

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 14 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 pione 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. 8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9of11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION 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. 10 of 11 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 liquidlevel 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. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five years. 23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. hi - , .'1 ., is 'Y . 1'�t r � - r y �a {.� pps a ti r.�+ � �r r. � "�".-( +��' _ y � -• f yes' 'r� .� �a ♦J, Sr :L its• � GY �``�i�s' o s.�y� i" _ �"K'+'- •+ '»ri.

Regards, Todd Rowe, CCA Agronomist Murphy -Brown, LLC CAWMP AMENDMENT Scott 6/23/03 This amendment is intended to provide additional Nitrogen to the corn crop. Tissue analysis was conducted on the corn crop on June 16, 2003. The results of this analysis indicated the plants to be low in Nitrogen. Upon evaluation of the tissue sample results and the crop that is planted, it is found that additional Nitrogen is required for the corn crop. The additional Nitrogen is mainly due to the wet weather conditions that have been seen so far this growing season. Several processes have caused Nitrogen to be lost from the soil and restricted uptake by the plant. This additional Nitrogen is for supplementation of the required PAN in the waste management plan.

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. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Narrative of operation: Acres shown are 'wetted' acres. The deficit shown will be used, in the next few years, to apply sludge in an effort to close the old lagoons at this farm. Approximately_ 300 Ibs of additional PAN will come from the old lagoons each year until they are closed. Page 4 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 the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the. use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip). 5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. Page 5 REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by 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 courses 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. Page 6 REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 17 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. 18 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. 19 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 animal waste during the crop season. 20 . 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. 21 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 22 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Stevens, Director NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES August 1, 2000 CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED Murphy Family Farms Scott Farm Sites 1-4 313 Elvin Carter Lane Warsaw NC 28398 Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Scott Farm Sites 1-4 Facility Number 31-5 Duplin County Dear Murphy Family Farms: A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Greer McVicker on 11/3/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "Y'. Category 1: K The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Greer McVicker the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Greer McVicker, at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact Greer McVicker at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Greer McVicker with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper ! Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: ❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. 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 Sonya Avant of our Central Office staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571. Sincerely, "nZ Kerr T.

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, DRY), DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD 1, 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.

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 of temporary storage for: (1) manure production of animals, (2) excess fresh water storage, (3) rainfall in excess of evaporation, (4) storage for the 25 year / 24 hour storm for the location, (5) and, if applicable, an additional heavy rain" storage volume for chronic rainfall events. Allocation for any additional fresh water usage is also included in the temporary storage. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, 'but this storage volume must always be available. A staff gauge must be installed in the lagoon that indicates the start pumping and stop pumping levels.. The start pumping level is the maxium liquid level under normal operating conditions. The stop pumping level is the minimum liquid level under normal operation to maintain required treatment volume and depth. Pumping can be started and stopped anywhere 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. However, it is recommended that the lagoon be kept pumped down as much as possible. Land application of wastewater is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling guns. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is required that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one—half the treatent volume or as otherwise specified on the lagoon design drawings before wastes are introduced. The purpose is to prevent excessive odors during start—up. Precharging 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. The plan recommends sampling and testing of waste before land application. Murphy Famfly Farms Engineering P. O.

Begin temporary storage pump —out of the lagoon when the fluid level reaches the elevation 96.80 as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump —out when the fluid level reaches elevation 94.50. This temporary storage, less 25 year / 24 hour storm, - contains 149802 cubic feet or 1120518 gallons. 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation -is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. S. 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 or damaged areas and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner such that waste will not reach other property and public rights —of —way. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge.of pollutants into waters of the United States. Waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by either discharge or by over —spraying. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management has the responsibility for enforcing this law. - Murphy Family Farms Engineering P. O.

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 foundatioriarea 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 material may 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 equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectable. NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER SECTION OF -THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre—feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law and require permitting by the NC Dept. of Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section. 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 CLAY LINER THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.6 F. . NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN INDICATED ON THE DRAWINGS OR WHEN MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION THAT WILL NOT PROVIDE THE PERMEABILITY LIMITS AS STATED LATER IN THIS SECTION. SUCH MATERIAL IS CONSIDERED UNSUITABLE WITH RESPECT TO LINING. ATYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DRAWINGS WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED, Murphy Family Farms Engineering P. O. Box 759, Rose Hill NC 28458 (910) 289-2111 ADDRESS: PO BOX 759 CHECKED BY: JNT ROSE HILL NC 28458 DATE: 11/13/96 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 2 OF 3 When areas of unsuitable material- are encountered, they will be overexcavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be back -filled as specified to grade with a material approved by the engineer or his representative. REFER TO THE DRAWINGS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum moisture 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 moisture content during placement. The maximum moisture 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 95 percent of the Standard Proctor Maximum Dry Density (ASTM D698) of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting -the overall compacted permeability 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 in an established pattern helps assure uniformity in the entire placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferred type of compaction equipment In accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (revised September 1993) the maximum allowable specific discharge of the liner is 1.0 x 10`5 cm/sec. This specific discharge is dependant on the permeability of the liner material, the liner thickness, -and the hydrostatic pressure on the liner. With the minimum required liner thickness stated earlier and the maximum liquid depth in the lagoon, the maximum permeability of the compacted liner is 1.25 x 10-6 cm/sec. Upon completion of the liner, undisturbed samples will be taken and tested for actual permeability. Any permeability tests indicating a higher permeability than stated above will be considered as failing. Failing tests will require recompaction of the liner material and retesting. For lagoons being built in soils which do not require clay lining the same permeability requirements apply as for clay liners and testing of the in —situ material will be conducted. During the excavation process, soils at the excavated surface are loosened as adjacent material is being removed. As a result, the permeability of these surface soils is increased. To insure proper compaction and minimum soil permeability, when lagoon excavation is complete the inner side slopes and bottom shall be rolled thoroughly prior to testing:' Mufpf y family Farms Engrneemg P.

This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator: concrete flumes, concrete blocks laid tightly together, or using flexible pipe 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 or are shown on the drawings. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when called for in the notes on the drawings or as shown on a typical cross section on the drawings. The final dimensions of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials during construction. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil, if available on site should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if 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: An observation trench shall be dug along the perimeter of the lagoon 25 feet outside the proposed embankment toe to verify that no subsurface drain tile lines are present in the lagoon area. The trench shall be dug to a minimum depth of five feet and shall have a width adequate to accommodate equipment used for backfill and compaction. Trench side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. Trench backfll shall be compacted as stated in the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT section of the specification. When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 25 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with material approved by the engineer or his representative. Tile drains that are removed shall be either capped off or rerouted around the lagoon, as directed by the engineer or his representative. SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS: All operations shall be carried out in a safe, skillful, and workmanlike manner. All safety and health regulations shall be observed and appropriate personal safety and health measures used at all times during construction.

This plan will be' implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface water 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 available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any tirhe. Your plan should follow this format: 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: add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam --any permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified professional engineer or qualified technical specialist pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waters) ---hold waste in house if possible call a pumping contractor make sure no surface water is entering lagoon NOTE: The above listed activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary storage level. B. Runoff from waste application field --actions include: immediately stop waste application create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field incorporate waste to reduce further runoff C. Leakage from the waste distribution system: pipes and sprinklers —actions include: — stop recycle (flushing system) pump — stop irrigation pump — close valves to eliminate further discharge — separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow flush system, houses, solids separators —actions include: — stop recycle (flushing system) pump — stop irrigation pump -- make sure no siphon effect has been created — separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow D. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often these are.seepage as opposed to flowing leaks --possible action*: I dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage,put in a submersible .pump, and pump back into lagoon if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clayey soil other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clav soil Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O.

AWC — August 1, 1997 LAGOON CLOSURE PLAN SCOTT FARM DUPLIN COUNTY The Scott Farm is a 12,246 hd. finishing farm owned by Murphy Family Farms. It is located on HWY 117N of Warsaw. The lagoons on this farm were recently retrofitted and the existing lagoons abandoned due to lack of storage volume. All of the existing lagoons will require some degree of sludge removal before they can be properly closed out. The existing lagoons were pumped down to the sludge level to pre -charge the new lagoons and all inlets for rainwater were closed. This gives each of the existing lagoons in excess of 365 days storage. The plan is to close these old lagoons during 1998. Specific crop fields for sludge application have been identified and the closure will proceed as they become available. All NRCS recomendations regarding lagoon closures will be followed and DEM will be notified when the closure process begins.

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 sod tests are =onaty 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 Sze the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an enviro=entally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the Cron to be =own and the nutrient content ofthe waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Sod types are inmor=t as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than tons per acre per year With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface. is froze Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than -20 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or diskita.s will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 fro myour waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the Iab for analvsis_ This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.02 l7 adopted by the Envirommeata:l Management Commission.

Discharge rates and application rates change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear ofthe sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular, basis to ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring. For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or Lechnical specialist for assistance. 'Reprinted for Ceruficatian Training for operations of Anima! Waste Management Systems Manua! OPERATION & NIARqTENANCE PLAN Proper lagoon liouid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods. Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means .that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according t4 a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the Iand is dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage spa= available in the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to mainrain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as -long as the weather and waste utilization plan will allow it. Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. _ Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of state law and subject to penalty action. The routine mnainten nce of a lagoon involves the following: ?�,Iaimmnance of a veaerative cover for the dam. Fescue or common De..=, udav-rass are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each veal-, if -needed, to maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment andsurroundingareas should be fertidzed with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or eauivaient. Brush and trees on the embanlanent must be controlled. This may be done by mowing, spraying, grating, chopping, or a combination of these practices. This should be done at least once a year and possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for heavy vegetative growth. NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter the lagoon wirer. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating the waste. Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm, events. Items to be checked should include, as a minimum, the following: Waste inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes --look for: 1_ geparation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumulation of salts or minerals 4. overall condition of pipes Lagoon surface--Iook for: 1. undesirable vegetative growth 2. floating or lodged debris _ Embankment —look for. 1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes 2. side slope stability —slumps or bulges 3. wet or damp areas on the back slope .4. erosion dui to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action 5. rodent damage Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong winds. These waves can erode the Igoon stdewaiis, thereby weakening the lagoon dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If wave action causes serious dame to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon maybe used to reduce the wave impacts. Any of these features could Iead to erosion and weakening of the dam: If your lagoon has any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and construction of waste Iagoons. You may need to provide a temporary -f x if there is a threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the technical experL Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless recommended by an appropriate tet;:udcal expert. ransfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of: L recvcling pumps 2. irrigation pumps Check for leaks, loose fittings, and ovezall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding noise, or a large an, punt of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or replacernent_ NOTE: Pumping systems should be insp--ted and ope.-ated frequently enough so that you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should pp, rform your -pumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not -the time to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare parts or pumps. Surface water diversion features are designed to cagy dI surface drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be corning from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing (washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system for the following: 1. adequate vegetation 2. diversion capacity 3. ridge berm height Identified problems should be con-r-cmd promptly. It is advisable to inspect your systnn dur nc or immediately following a heavy rain- If technical assistance is needed to drt�Tae proper solutions, consult with approprsam experts_ You should record the Ievel of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then record- the level again 4 to S hours ate~ the rain (assumes these is no pumping). This will give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a cm7min rainfall amount (you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work)_ Knowing this should help in planning irrigation applications and storage. If your moon rises excessively, you may have an inflow problem from a surf= water diversion or theme may be seepage into the lagoon frorn the surrounding land. Lagoon Opetion I_ Immediately after construction e=ablish a complete sod cover on bare soil surfaces to avoid erosion. 2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water befor:: waste loading beg:.ns, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes. 3. D;2:npipes into the lagoon should have a flexible. oioe extender on the end of the pipe to disclaree near the bottom of the moon during initial d ing or another means of slowing the incoming w�arer to avoid ems on of the lining. 4. When possible, begin loading new Iagoons in the spring to i[tazimi7a bacterial emblishm= (due to warmer weather). 5. It is recommended d=. z new lagoon be se—d-.with sludge from a hm1thy worm; swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 pe.:-m-it of the Aalagoon liquid volume. This seediag should oc;,our-ar list two wetks prior to the a.dcurion of wastewatt . 6. Maintain a periodic chick on the lagoon liquid -pH. If the pH fails be:ow 7.0, add agricultural Lune at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic fe-- of lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liard& pH is bet v n 7.5 and 8.0. 7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate: biological activity. Consultation with a technical spe=a.list is rexmmended if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warn Season. Loadir g: The more h=uently�and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the bette*tbe lagoon will fund�ori. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily optimum for treatment Pit rLharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained` and recharged each day, also work well. Practice water conservation ---minimize building water usage and spillage from leaking -waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and waxer conservation. 14�Iinimize reed was -age and spillage by keeping feed= adjusted. This will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full temporary storage level. Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid. lever (Figure 2-1). Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient reautremears and soil moisture so that "temporary storage will be maxim — for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, itLgate in the late summer/early fall to provide raxdmum lagoon storage for the wince.-. 'I"ne lagoon liquid level should never be closer. than 1 foot to the iow--T,-- ooint o.- the dam or embankrnent. Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent stoz-e level unless you art removing sludge. I ocate float pump intakes approidmately 18 inches underneath the limed sZ-�ce and as f`r akav liom the drainvine inlets as possible. Prevent additions of bedding mate:i.als, Ion—sm.-nmed forage orvege�on, molded feed, plasric syringes, or other foreign mam-rals into the -lagoon_ F=Uently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or - wherever they are installed. Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embaak=t Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or before it rills 50 percent of the permanent swrage volume. If animal production is to be terminated, the owner -is responsible for obtaining and impic.nenting a closure plan to eUrninate the possibility of a. pollutant discharge. Shidge.Rem ovate Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by: proper lagoon sung, mechanical solids szoa arion of flusne�d waste, gravity szrdmg of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or minimizin- feed wasz.ge and spillage. Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long te.- n will: have more nutrients, have more odor, and require more land to proDerly use the nutrients.

Regardless of the method, you ruse have the sludge material armdyzrd for waste cons-Ldme its jus as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will' contain diffe w^t nuttiest and rnet l values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will -be limited. by these nuaients as well as any previous waste appl.icadons to that field and czop requ , -ment. Waste application fates will be discussed in de=ii in Chapter 3. When rcmoving sludge, you must a so pay attention to the line~ to prevent damage. Qose attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains intact- If you see soil material or the synthetic line: material being disturbed, you should stop the acz[vity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be removed without liner injury. If the iiner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as possible- - Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and. heavy metal contort than liquid. Bemuse of this it should probably be. applied to land with low phosphorus and mewl levers. as indicated by a soil test, and incorporates to reduce the chance of erosion- Note bat if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphorus, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wash, always havd your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value. The =liration of sludge will increase the amount of odor at Ul c waste application site_ Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind dire::ion and other conditions which could increase t1he concern of neighbors. possible Causes of Lagoon Failure Lagoon failures Tesult in the unplanned discharge of wasmvrater from the stiucanre 'types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and brmch of the dam_ A sLnni g proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for ensmng str=ure safety.

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 III material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT The completed excavation and earthfii.l 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 material may 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 equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectable. NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre—feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law and require permitting by the NC Dept. of Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section. 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 LINER THICKNESS SHALL BE 40.0 MIL NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN INDICATED ON THE DRAWINGS OR WHEN MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION THAT WILL NOT PROVIDE THE PERMEABILITY LIMITS AS STATED LATER IN THIS SECTION. SUCH MATERIAL IS CONSIDERED UNSUITABLE WITH RESPECT TO LINING. ATYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DRAWINGS WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED, Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O.

The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a material approved by the engineer or his representative. REFER TO THE DRAWINGS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area The minimum moisture 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 moisture content during placement. The maximum moisture 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 95 percent of the Standard Proctor Maximum Dry Density (ASTM D698) of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted permeability 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 in an established pattern helps assure uniformity in the entire placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferred type of compaction equipment. In accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (revised September 1993) the maximum allowable speck discharge of the liner is 1.0 x 10-5 cm/sec. This specific discharge is dependant on the permeability of the liner material, the liner thickness, and the hydrostatic pressure on the liner. With the minimum required liner thickness stated earlier and the maximum liquid depth in the lagoon, the maximum permeability of the compacted liner is 1.25 x 10-6cm/sec. Upon completion of the liner, undisturbed samples will be taken and tested for actual permeability. Any permeability tests indicating a higher permeability than stated above will be considered as failing. Failing tests will require recompaction of the liner material and retesting. For lagoons being built in soils which do not require clay lining the same permeability requirements apply as for clay liners and testing of the in --situ material will be conducted. During the excavation process, soils at the excavated surface are loosened as adjacent material is being removed. As a result, the permeability of these surface soils is increased. To insure proper compaction and minimum soil permeability, when lagoon excavation is complete the inner side slopes and bottom shall be rolled thoroughly prior to testing.

Box 759 CHECKED BY: J_ NT Rose Hill, NC 2B458 DATE: 05/23/97 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 3 OF 3 The soil liner shall be protected from scour produced by the discharge from waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator: concrete flumes, concrete blocks laid tightly together, or using flexible pipe 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 or are shown on the drawings. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when called for in the notes on the drawings or as shown on a typical cross section on the drawings. The final dimensions of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials during construction. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil, if available on site should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if 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: An observation trench shall be dug along the perimeter of the lagoon 25 feet outside the proposed embankment toe to verify that no subsurface drain tile lines are present in the lagoon area The trench shall be dug to a minimum depth of five feet and shall have a width adequate to accommodate equipment used for backfill and compaction. Trench side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. Trench backfili shall be compacted as stated in the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT section of the specification. When tile drains are encountered, the file will be removed to a minimum of 25 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The file trench shall be backfilled and compacted with material approved by the engineer or his representative. Tile drains that are removed shall be either capped off or rerouted around the lagoon, as directed by the engineer or his representative. SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS: All operations shall be carried out in a safe, skillful, and workmanlike manner. All safety and health regulations shall be observed and appropriate personal safety and health measures used at all times during construction. - Mrrrnhv Family Farms FnninaArmn P_O_ Rnr 7_S_9 Rnse Hi!!

Box 759 CHECKED BY: JNT Rose Hill, NC 28458 DATE: 05/23/97 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. - The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days of temporary storage for: (1) manure production of animals, (2) excess fresh water storage, (3) rainfall in excess of evaporation, (4) storage for the 25 year / 24 hour storm for the location, (5) and, if applicable, an additional heavy rain" storage volume for chronic rainfall events. Allocation for any additional fresh water usage is also included in the temporary storage. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A staff gauge must be installed in the lagoon that indicates the start pumping and stop pumping levels. The start pumping level is the maxium liquid level under normal operating conditions. The stop pumping level is the minimum liquid level under normal operation to maintain required treatment volume and depth. Pumping can be started and stopped anywhere 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. However, it is recommended that the lagoon be kept pumped down as much as possible. Land application of wastewater is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling guns. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is required that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one—half the treatent volume or as otherwise specified on the lagoon design drawings before wastes are introduced. The purpose is to prevent excessive odors during start—up. Precharging 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. The plan recommends sampling and testing of waste before land application. Murphy Family Farts Engineering P.O.

Begin temporary storage pump —out of the lagoon when the fluid level reaches the elevation 115.00 as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump —out when the fluid level reaches elevation 112.60. This temporary storage, less 25 year / 24 hour storm, contains 300700 cubic feet or 2249237 gallons. 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches per hour. Refer to the wapte 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 or damaged areas and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner such that waste will not reach other property and public rights —of --way. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. Waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by either discharge or by over —spraying. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface water 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 available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any time. Your plan should follow this format 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: add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam —any permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified professional engineer or qualified technical specialist pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waters) --hold waste in house if possible call a pumping contractor make sure no surface water is entering lagoon NOTE: The above listed activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary storage level. B. Runoff from waste application field —actions include: immediately stop waste application create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field incorporate waste to reduce further runoff C. Leakage from the waste distribution system: pipes and sprinklers —actions include: -- stop recycle (flushing system) pump stop irrigation pump — close valves to eliminate further discharge -- separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow flush system, houses, solids separators —actions include: -- stop recycle (flushing system) pump — stop irrigation pump — make sure no siphon effect has been created — separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow D. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed to flowing leaks —possible action*: dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals= nd fill holes and compact with a clayey soil other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil Murphy Family Farms EngineeMg P.O.

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 earthfiill 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 material may 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 equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectable. NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement Dikes over 15 feet in height with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre—feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law and require permitting by the NC Dept of Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section. 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 CLAY LINER THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 FT. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN INDICATED ON THE DRAWINGS OR WHEN MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION THAT WILL NOT PROVIDE THE PERMEABILITY LIMITS AS STATED LATER IN THIS SECTION. SUCH MATERIAL IS CONSIDERED UNSUITABLE WITH RESPECT TO LINING. ATYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DRAWINGS WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED. Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O. Box 759, Rose Hill NC 28456 (910) 289-2111 GROWER: SCOTT #4 (MFF) DESIGNED BY: JWR ADDRESS: PO BOX 759 CHECKED BY: JNT ROSE HILL, NC DATE: 05/19/97 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 2 OF 3 When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be overexcavated 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 material approved by the engineer or his representative. REFER TO THE DRAWINGS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum moisture 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 moisture content during placement. The maximum moisture 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 95 percent of the Standard Proctor Maximum Dry Density (ASTM D698) of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted permeability 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 in an established pattern helps assure uniformity in the entire placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferred type of compaction equipment. In accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (revised September 1993) the maximum allowable specific discharge of the liner is 1.0 x 10-5 cm/sec. This specific discharge is dependant on the permeability of the liner material, the liner thickness, and the hydrostatic pressure on the liner. With the minimum required liner thickness stated earlier and the maximum liquid depth in the lagoon, the maximum permeability of the compacted liner is 1.25 x 10-6cm/sec. Upon completion of the liner, undisturbed samples will be taken and tested for actual permeability. Any permeability tests indicating a higher permeability than stated above will be considered as failing. Failing tests will require recompaction of the liner material and retesting. For lagoons being built in soils which do not require clay lining the same permeability requirements apply as for clay liners and testing of the in —situ material will be conducted. . During the excavation process, soils at the excavated surface are loosened as adjacent material is being removed. As a result, the permeability of these surface soils is increased. To insure proper compaction and minimum soil permeability, when lagoon excavation is complete the inner side slopes and bottom shall be rolled thoroughly prior to testing.

Box 759, Rose Hill NC 28459 (9 ro) 289-2111 ADDRESS: PO BOX 759 ROSE HILL, NC COUNTY: DUPLIN CHECKED BY: JNT DATE: 05/19/97 The soil liner shall be protected from scour produced by the discharge from waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator: concrete flumes, concrete blocks laid tightly together, or using flexible pipe 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 or are shown on the drawings. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when called for in the notes on the drawings or as shown on a typical cross section on the drawings. The final dimensions of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials during construction. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil, if available on site should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if 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: An observation trench shall be dug along the perimeter of the lagoon 25 feet outside the proposed embankment toe to verify that no subsurface drain the lines are present in the lagoon area The trench shall be dug to a minimum depth of five feet and shall have a width adequate to accommodate equipment used for backfill and compaction. Trench side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. Trench backfill shall be compacted as stated in the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT section of the specification. When file drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 25 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with material approved by the engineer or his representative. Tile drains that are removed shall be either capped off or rerouted around the lagoon, as directed by the engineer or his representative. SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS: All operations shall be carried out in a safe, skillful, and workmanlike manner. All safety and health regulations shall be observed and appropriate personal safety and health measures used at all times during construction. _ Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O.

Box 759, Rose Hill NC 28458 (910) 289-2111 GROWER: SCOTT #4 (MFF) DESIGNED BY: JWR ADDRESS: PO BOX 759 CHECKED BY: JNT ROSE HILL, NC DATE: 05/19/97 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days of temporary storage for: (1) manure production of animals, (2) excess fresh water storage, (3) rainfall in excess of evaporation, (4) storage for the 25 year 124 hour storm for the location, (5) and, if applicable, an additional °heavy rain" storage volume for chronic rainfall events. Allocation for any additional fresh water usage is also included in the temporary storage. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A staff gauge must be installed in the lagoon that indicates the start pumping and stop pumping levels. The start pumping level is the maxium liquid level under normal operating conditions. The stop pumping level is the minimum liquid level under normal operation to maintain required treatment volume and depth. Pumping can be started and stopped anywhere 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. However, it is recommended that the lagoon be kept pumped down as much as possible. Land application of wastewater is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling guns. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is required that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one—half the treatent volume or as otherwise specified on the lagoon design drawings before wastes are introduced. The purpose is to prevent excessive odors during start—up. Precharging 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. The plan recommends sampling and testing of waste before land application. Murphy Family Farms Engineering P.O. Box 759, Rose Hill NC 28456 (910) 289-2111 ADDRESS: PO BOX 759 CHECKED BY: JNT ROSE HILL, NC DATE: 05/19/97 COUNTY: DUPLIN SHEET 2 OF 2 3. Begin temporary storage pump —out of the lagoon when the fluid level reaches the elevation 115.30 as marked by the staff gauge. Stop pump —out when the fluid level reaches elevation 113.10. This temporary storage, less 25 year / 24 hour storm, contains 268504 cubic feet or 2008407 gallons. 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation -.is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inches per hour. 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 or damaged areas and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner such that waste will not reach other property and public rights —of —way. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge.of pollutants into waters of the United States. Waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by either discharge or by over —spraying. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental'Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. Murphy Family Farms Engineering P. 0.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface water 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 available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any time. Your plan should follow this format 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: add soil to berm to temporarily increase elevation of dam —any permanent alteration of the dam should be approved by a qualified professional engineer or qualified technical specialist pump wastes to field at an acceptable rate ' stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waters) ---hold waste in house if possible call a pumping contractor make sure no surface water is entering lagoon NOTE: The above listed activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary storage level. B. Runoff from waste application field —actions include: immediately stop waste application create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field incorporate waste to reduce further runoff C. Leakage from the waste distribution system: pipes and sprinklers —actions include: — stop recycle (flushing system) pump — stop irrigation pump — close valves to eliminate further discharge — separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow flush system, houses, solids separators —actions include: stop recycle (flushing system) pump stop irrigation pump make sure no siphon effect has been created separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow D. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed to flowing leaks —possible action*: dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals -and fill holes and compact with a clayey soil _other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil Murphy Family Farms Engineerkg P.O.

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.

Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director March 23, 1994 Lois Murphy Rt 1 Box 52B Warsaw NC 28398 Dear Mr, Murphy: This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), Water Quality Section. On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters of the state_ The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain minimum criteria are met (15A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted. We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993 and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certirigation form (copy enclosed) to DEM by D4gtmber 31. 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must obtain signed certification beforr,.animals are stggk&d_on the farm. Certification of an approved animal waste management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water Conservation Commission adopts rules later this year. We appreciate you providing us with this information. If you have any question about the new nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at (919) 733-5083. enc: Sincerely, Steve Tedder, Chief Water Quality Section P.O.

This determination is based on an investigation conducted on April 3, 1991, by members of the Wilmington Regional Office. The investigations revealed that swine waste from the Scott #1 lagoon was discharging through a dike break-out at a flow approximately equal to the influent rate. The unlawful discharge was to an unnamed tributary of Big Branch Creek which is classified as " C Swamp " waters. You have indicated in recent telephone conversations that the dike has undergone repairs and the unlawful discharge has been ceased. This Office recommends actions to control dike erosion by minimizing stormwater runoff flow into the sewage lagoons. In addition, you should inform all employees that unpermitted discharges of wastes from the operation will constitute a violation of North Carolina General Statutes. Such violations may result in the assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day per violation. 7225 Wrightsvdic AvcnUC, WIIMM�rtnn, N(_ 29403-3096 • Tdcphane 919-25(r41(,1 0 Fax 919-?51r.857_2 Mr. James Sauls, Jr. April 18, 1991 Page Two -------------------- In addition, it is requested you contact Mr. Mike Sugg, District Conservationist at 919/296-1958 or 919/296--1546 to discuss any modifications that need to be made to insure that future violations do not occur.
