The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of conrmelciaf 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 awn 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 mammize 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. Sal types am 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 ache per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per ape 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 DWR regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drib and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for pop 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 crap or forages breaking dormancy. injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 1of11 T)Is plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you dense to change ids in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient darveis for dferert 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 batty In some cases you may want to have plant arraysis made, which could allow nal waste W be applied Proves shag be made for the area receiving waste to be faftb so as to aeconunodate changing waste analysis corrtent and crop type. t itre must be applied to maintain pli to the optimum range for spedfic crop production. This waste utilization purr, t carried out, meets the requa a menu for cornplance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Mar>agerrrerd Commission.

In b7Wpkuftd Bids ( Le. small grain. etc, Werseeded in bermuada), forage must be removed through grazJM tray, and/or silage. Where grating, plants should be grazed when they e reach a height of sac to rdne metres. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of Lour inches_ In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, cane should be exerlsed riot to let small grain reach matuurrtl, espeaaiiy late In the season C're. April or May). Shading ng may result if sma D grain gets too high and this will defm r interfere with stand of bemhudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being ufted. Rattner than culting sM9M grain for hay or silage Just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may ward to corhsdler hary hay or silage two to three times dturing the season, depending on the time small grains planted in the fall. The ideal time to hrterplard small grain, etc, is late September or early Ocnber. Drilling is rec=nnrrided over bmadcasting.

APPLICATION OF WASTE BY RRIGanON: The irrigation applicabon rate should not emceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of Irrigation such that runoff or porhding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, sotil structure, soil tendurewater dry sine, and organic solids. The application amount should not mmeed the available wader holding capacity of the sod at the time of irrigation nor should the plant avadabie nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of hand application for this plan, it is the resporisibti'ity of the producer and iniganton designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to property it I the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the reaomrnerxW rates and amotphts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

This waste urn plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cyde. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yielft of the crop to be grown. Several factors are Important in implementing your waste utilizatiori plan in order to mmamize 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 wvaste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crap can utilize. 2. Sod types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capadties- 3. Normallywaste 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. Erther of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which its not allowed under DWR regulations. 5. Wind oondilions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor B. To maximize the value of the nub% is for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more titan 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages brealwig dormancy.

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 c)o itions may result in runoff to surface waters whi �' allowed under DWQ regulations. CE p�C 1 8 2006 Page: 1 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.) 14391 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 27342.9 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 14391 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 33099.3 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will -be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less _nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 5324.67 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 26623.35 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 88.7445 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 212.9868 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 251 depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation'system is installed to properly irrigate the acres Page: 6 ANIMAL WASTE ❑TILIZATION PLAN shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm_ It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply Page: 7 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION THIS PLAN IS WRITTEN ON AN WETTABLE ACRE FOOTPRINT BY TRACTS SEE ATTACH MAP FOR DETAILS OF PULLS. Q -4 Page: 8 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at.rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.., .4 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 W would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fail or winter for sprang 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 a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate 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 a5cessible. Berms and structures -should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge. Page: 10 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall -be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years_ Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

OLIVE NC 28365 Telephone: 919-658-5767 Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine Number of Animals: 14391.00 hogs (Design Capacity) STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops ` in the fields where the waste is to -be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: . 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these'donditions may result in runoff to surface -waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. G. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be -applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. if you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different'application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.) 14391 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 27342.9 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 14391 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 33099.3 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will -be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application. a 4 Page: 2 ` ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN TABLES 1: ACRES OWNED BY PRODUCER TRACT FIELD SOIL TYPE & CLASS- CROP YIELD LBS COMM N ** * LBS DETERMINING.PHASE CODE AW N PER ACRES AW N PER AC AC USED - --- or ------- APPLY RESID.

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagxass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less _nitrogen being utilized_ Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed o`r mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 5324.67 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 26623.35 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 88.7445 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 212.9368 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not.exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. 4 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 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION :IS PLAN IS WRITTEN ON AN WETTABLE ACRE FOOTPRINT BY TRACTS SEE ATTACH MAP FOR ,TAILS OF PULLS. Page: 8 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6_ When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland_ when applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and ina method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8_ Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen., } 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops.in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth_ The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REARED SPECIFICATIONS 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 a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate 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. Page: 10 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.) 14316 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 27200.4 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 14316 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 32926.8 lbs. PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application. Page: 2 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN /.

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 5296.92 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 26484.6 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 88.282 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 211.8768 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 2511 depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and Page: 6 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION THIS PLAN AS WRITTEN IS BASED ON A CONTROLED GRAZING ROTATION ON TRACT 2316 FIELD 1 AND TRACT 3694 FIELDS 1&3 Page: 8 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 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 a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate 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. Page: 10 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at,a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2.. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.' This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime -must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.) 14391 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 27342.9 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 14391 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 33099.3 lbs.-PAN/year Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time,and have appropriate equipment to apply.the waste in a timely manner. The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 5296.92 pounds of plant -available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 26484.6 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 88.282 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need•211..8768 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25o depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs.

(Written approval of the State Veterinarian must be attached) System Calibration Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed ,in the design will after the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. 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 no_auniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers of more -.than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance.. `Reprinted for Certification Training for Operations of Animal Waste Management Systems Manual OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN Proper lagoon liquid 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 to a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space 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 maintain 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 maintenance of a Iagoon involves the following: Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam. Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, 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 and surrounding areas should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent. Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by mowing, spraying, grazing, 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 water. 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. separation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumulation of salts or minerals 4. . overall condition of pipes ti Lagoon surface ---look 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 due 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 lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be used to reduce the wave impacts. Any of these features could lead 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 lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the technical expert. 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 technical expert. Transfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of: 1. recycling pumps 2. irrigation pumps Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or replacement. NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform 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 carry all 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 coming 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 corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts. You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain 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 lagoon rises excessively, you may have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the Iagoon from the surrounding land. Lagoon Operation Startup: 1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil surfaces to avoid erosion. 2:. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes. 3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining. 4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather). 5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the addition of wastewater. 6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below 7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of I pound per 1000 cubic feet of ... . - lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid pH is between 7.5 and 8.0. 7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season. Loading: The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge 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 water conservation. Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon Management: 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 requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter. The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the dam or embankment. Do not pump the lagoon liquid level Iower that the permanent storage level unless you are removing sludge. Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible. Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon. Frequently 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 embankment. Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume. If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge. Sludge Removal: Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by: proper lagoon sizing, mechanical solids separation of flushed waste, gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or minimizing feed wastage and spillage. Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will: have more nutrients, have more odor, and require more land to properly use the nutrients. Removal techniques: Hire a custom applicator. Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure- spreader onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop. requirement.. , Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3. When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close attention. by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as possible. Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value. The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site. Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which could increase the concern of neighbors. Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to Iagoon failures include: Modification of the lagoon structure —an example is the placement of a pipe in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.) Lagoon liquid levels --- high levels are a safety risk. Failure to inspect and maintain the dam. Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon. Liner integrity ---protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table. NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause gullies to form in the darn. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.

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 to a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space 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 maintain 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-yea_ r, 24-hour storm is a violation of state law and subject to penalty action. The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following: Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam. Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, 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.and surrounding areas should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent. Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be �=-;done by mowing,. spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of fhese 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 water. 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. separation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumulation of salts or minerals 4. overall condition of pipes Lagoon surface —look 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 due 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 lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be used to reduce the wave impacts. Any of these features could lead 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 lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed.by the technical expert. 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 technical expert. Transfer Pumps —check for. proper operation of: 1. recycling pumps 2. irrigation pumps Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or replacement. NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you are -not com0etely "surprised" by.equipment failure. You should perform your pumping system"mainteriance'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 heighEior's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare parts or pumps. Surface water diversion. features are designed to carry all 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 coming 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 corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is -needed to determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts. You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then. record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain 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 lagoon rises excessively, you may have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the lagoon from the surrounding land. Lagoon Operation Startup: 'Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil surfaces to avoid erosion. 2.. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste loading begins, taking care not'to erode lining or bank slopes. 3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining. 4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather). 5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the addition of wastewater. _6: Maintain a periodic -check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls -below 7.0, add. agricultural lir-.e at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid -pH is between 7.5 and-8.0. 7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for.prolonged periods, especially during the.warm season. Loading: The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained and recharged each day, also work well. Management: Practice water conservation —minimize building water usage and spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and water conservation. Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders 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 requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter. The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the dam or embankment. Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage. level unless you are removing sludge. Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and as far. away from the drainpipe inlets as possible. Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials. into the lagoon. Frequently remove solids. from catch basins at end of confinement houses or ---�wherever.they are.instalIed. Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges. - ' Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment. Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume. If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge. Sludge Removal: Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by: • proper lagoon sizing, mechanical solids separation of flushed waste, gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or minimizing feed wastage and spillage. Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will: have more nutrients, have more odor, and require more land to properly use the nutrients. Removal techniques. - Hire a custom applicator. Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into -liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed far waste constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop requiremerlb;� Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3. When'rem�oving sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close attention: by,.the-pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains intact: Ifyou _ see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as possible. Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of erosion. 'Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value. The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site. Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which could increase the concern of neighbors. Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for . ensuring structure safety. Items which.may lead to lagoon failures include: Modification of the lagoon structure —an example is the placement of a pipe in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.) Lagoon liquid levels —high levels are a safety risk. Failure to inspect and maintain the dam. Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon. Liner integrity —protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table. NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop -the dam, the moving water will soon cause gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure. yy 4q_t5 5l.i '. 1131 - —zz� Wa. W 5-It"W64 %3 TIN. J low W; L4 a 4�,7 -X .

Discharge rates and application rates change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. 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, .spr4nklers 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 nonunifor.mity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers of more- than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance. `Reprinted for Certification Training for Operations of Animal Waste Management Systems Manual I A24121AI.

Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director CERTIFICATION FOR NEW OR EXPANDED ANIMAL FEEDL T INSTRUCTIONS FOR CERTIFICATION OF APPROVED ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMMT PLANS FOR NEW OR EXPANDED ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS SERVING FEEDLOTS In order to be deemed permitted by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), the owner of any new or expanded animal waste management system constructed after January 1, 1994 which is designed to serve greater than or equal to the animal populations listed below is required to submit a signed certification form to DEM before the new animals are stocked on the farm. Pasture operations are exempt from the requirement to be certified. 100 head of cattle 75 horses 250 swine 1,000 sheep 30,000 birds with a liquid wants system The certification must be signed by the owner of the feedlot (and manager if different from the owner) and by any technical specialist designated by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission pursuant to 15A NCAC 6F _0001-.0005. A technical specialist must verify by an on -site -inspection that all applicable design and construction standards and specifications are met- as installed and that all applicable operation and maintenance/'sta'ndards and specifications can be met. Although the actual number of animals at the facility may.yary from-ttime do time, the design capacity- -6E:tle waste handling system should be used to determine if a farm is subject to the certification requirement. 'For example-, if the waste system for a feedlot is designed to handle 300 hogs but the average population will be 200 hogs, then the waste management system requires a certification. This certification is required by regulations governing animal waste management systems adopted by the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on December 10, 1992 (Title i5A NCAC 2H .0217). On the reverse side of this page is the certification form which must be submitted to DEM before new animals are stocked on the Earm.

Olive NC 28365 June 28, 1994 Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your 6792 FEEDER TO FINISH SWINE operation. The plan*is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate`,to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield of the crops 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 environ- mentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. The amount of available nitrogen for plant use is dependant on the method of application. Soil type is important due to different leaching potential and yield potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of the waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less depending on the specific waste analysis report for your facility at the time of irrigation. . Your waste utilization plan is based on the following: TABLE A.

DESIGNED BY: APPROVED BY: DATE: DATE: NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN COMMENTS: SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN --------------... ---.___-----___— This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year — 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor~ to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water; is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre — charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start --yip. Fire —charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odars. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used,for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump —out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 34.5 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump — out when the fluid level reaches elevation 32.3 . This temporary storage, less 2.5 yr— 24 hr storm, contains 178E33 cubic feet or 1336176 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch 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 areas or, areas damaged by rodents 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 not to reach other property and public right —of --ways. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. SHEET 1 OF E SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ---------------------------------------------------------- FOUNDATION PREPARATION: ----------------------- The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,Sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good band. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: ----------------------------------- The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior, to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible. 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 and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.6 ft. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a SCS approved material tie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF 2 Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper, moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D696 Dry Unit Weight 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 perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type'of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rock5) or basing flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic, liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional" construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: -------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS ------------------------------- When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as SC, CL, or CH.

Do you request that the lagoon be designed for sludge accumulation? Designing the lagoon for sludge accumulation over a 10 -- 15 year period can increase the total lagoon volume by approximately 50% - 75%. If the lagoon is not designed for sludge accumulation, the permanent treatment volume will be reduced more quickly and more frequent sludge removal will be required to maintain the proper treatment volumes. Current SC5 guidelines do not require that lagoons be designed for sludge accumulation, although it is recommended. Please indicate whether or not you want the lagoon designed for sludge accumulation. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN: in accordance with North Carolina Administrative Code 15A-NCAC-2H Section .0200, Subsection .0217, under the jurisdiction of the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), any new or expanded animal waste management system must have an approved animal waste management plan which includes a waste utilization plan. The Soil Conservation Service will prepare this waste utilization plan for you; however, it is the Grower's responsibility to request this from SCS. This request should be made prior to the initial site visit by SCS so that information for the waste utilization plan can be gathered along with the soils information. A copy of Subsection .0217 of the above referenced regulations is attached for your information.

POST OFFICE BOX 759 • ROSE HILL, NORTH CAROUNA 28458 (910)289-2111 April 29, 1994 J. E. Grady Route 2, Box 84 Mt. Olive, NC 28365 Re: Preliminary Bovine Grower commitment Dear Mr. Grady: On behalf of Murphy Farms, Inc. and Quarter "M" Farms, Inc., (hereafter referred to as "Company" or "Companies" for convenience),! I am pleased to iadvise that you have been conditionally approved as an independent contract grower upon the terms and conditions hereafter set out. The property that is the subject of this Agreement is shown generally on Exhibit "A", the attached aerial photograph, and is further identified as Farm No. 84661, Tract No. T-23161 in the Duplin County offices of the Agriculture and Stabilization Conservation Services, ("ASCS"). As you have advised, the property is owned by J.E. Grady, Sr.. It is our understanding that you intend to identify the swine operation by the name of J.E. Grady Farm. Your proposed site has been inspected by, Jimmy Sauls, one of the companies representatives, and conditionally approved as a 3672 capacity swine finishing operation, and its related support facilities at an approximate construction cost of $270,000.00. This approval is conditional upon your compliance with the following terms and conditions: 1. All swine facilities and related accessory building structures, together with the waste disposal lagoons shall be completely located within the shaded areas on the aerial photographs, Exhibit "A". 2. You will provide the Company with written documentation that the proposed site, building(s), lagoon(s), and spray fields have been: (i) approved for their intended use by the Soil Conservation Service Technical Guidelines and all other applicable governmental bodies having oversight or regulatory control over such facilities; (ii) that you have contracted with a contractor or applicable subcontractors for the timely and proper construction of the facilities; and, (iii) that you are able, by use of your own resources or through financial arrangements made or agreed upon with a commercial lender, to financially comply with all applicable government regulations and to construct. -the facilities in the manner set out herein. Grower further agrees that at all times during the terms of a Swine Grower Agreement, the property and facilities shall be maintained and operated in compliance with all provisions of all applicable federal, state and local governmental regulations or guidelines. An executable Swine Grower Agreement specimen is set out on Exhibit "B" for your review hereto attached and made a part hereof. 3. The swine buildings, support facilities, and related equipment shall be constructed and installed in accordance with the specifications and costs set out on Exhibit "C", hereto attached and made a part hereof. 4. Since the Company's scheduling of the time for the initial delivery of swine to Grower's facilities is dependent upon its supply of such swine and Grower'6-completion of construction, the Phases hereafter set out shall be deemed controlling upon both parties. While it is contemplated in this agreement that Grower shall not commence the construction under Phase Two prior to completion by Grower and acceptance by Company of all Phase one requirements, Grower may commence and complete the construction under Phase Two at any time Grower shall deem appropriate, but such action shall be at Grower's sole risk, as hereafter set out, since Company shall not be obligated and may not be able to supply swine to Grower's facilities prior to end of the Phase One and Two periods provided for in this Agreement. 5. For the general purposes above set out, the construction periods shall be divided and carried out in two (2) separate phases. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs (4) and (7), Grower shall not begin construction work on any of the buildings or support structures until Company has issued an approval letter to Grower acknowledging the satisfactory completion of the following First Phase requirements: PHASE ONE: A. A financing loan commitment letter issued by a bank or lending institution, which may be conditional upon certain matters. In lieu thereof, sufficient financial data that readily demonstrates Grower's financial ability to construct the facilities by the use of his own funds. B. If the site does not abut a dedicated public road, a recorded right-of-way easement to the public road with adequate width for constructing and maintaining the roadway for vehicular traffic and necessary utilities servicing and maintaining the facilities. C. An all weather access road shall have been fully constructed within the right-of-way to the selected. construction site. D. All required county, state and federal permits shall have been issued, and copies provided to Company's Construction Department, containing no exceptions or conditional approval provisions that would materially affect Grower's right to begin construction or operate a swine facility of the nature and extent proposed by Grower, together with such approvals as are customarily provided by any,such agencies havingioversight responsibilities. E. All utilities to the construction site shall be completed. F. All slats set and pouring of all concrete except feed bin pads shall be completed. G. All earth work, including the construction of the lagoons and building pads, shall be completed. H. The deadline for completion of items A through G shall be on or before 160 days from the date of this letter, the final Phase One deadline date being the 6th day of October, 1994. PHASE TWO: Upon written notification to Company by Grower of the satisfactory and timely completion of items A through H, above, and Company acceptance of Phase One, Items A through H, Company will then issue written approval for Phase Two (2) to begin, which phase shall consist of and be subject to the following required work and conditions: A. Company shall not be required to issue, and Grower shall not be entitled to receive the Phase One approval acknowledgment, and Phase Two construction approval letter earlier than 160 days from the date of this letter, notwithstanding Grower's satisfactory completion and Company's acceptance of the Phase One requirements prior to the end of the Phase One 160 day deadline. B. The Phase 2 construction shall consist of the construction of the buildings, and purchase and installation of all equipment and fixtures necessary for the operation of the swine facilities. All wells providing both potable water as well as the water for all other required activities shall be completed. C. All requirements set out in Phase Two, subparagraph B, shall be completed on or before 180 days of the date of issuance of the Phase 2 commencement authorization, the final Phase Two deadline date being the 4th day of April, 1995. 6. Grower shall give Company written notice of the completion of all Phase Two requirements, and Company's construction representative(s) shall be entitled to inspect the facilities preparatory to final approval. Completion and reasonable time for inspection by Company shall be a prerequisite for approval. Company may issue its written approval prior to the end of the Phase Two 180 day construction period, or within 35 days after the expiration of that Phase Two deadline. Notwithstanding Grower's early completion of Phase 2 requirements, and/or Company's voluntary early approval and acceptance of the Phase Two construction, Company shall neither be required nor obligated to issue its written findings or acceptance to Grower prior to the end of that 180 day period, and in the event of the earlier issuance of its acceptance, such action shall not be interpreted as a waiver or modification of Company's, right or obligation as to select when to first place swine on Grower's premises, as hereafter provided. 7. Nothing in this letter shall be interpreted as prohibiting Grower, at his own option and risk, from beginning or completing any or all of the Phase One or Phase Two requirements prior to approval by Company of the applicable commencement or completion deadlines. However, it is understood and agreed between Grower and Company that, notwithstanding any such early commencement or completion, no additional rights, not agreed to and signed by all parties in writing, shall accrue to the benefit of Grower than as herein provided. More specifically, the Company shall not be required to deliver any swine to Grower's facilities at any time earlier than five (5) weeks from the designated end of the Phase Two 180 day period, unless Company shall agree in writing to do so earlier. 8. Time is of the essence for compliance with the conditions herein set out, and strict compliance with all other provisions is material and critical. 9. No addition, modification, deletion or alteration of any condition herein set out or referred to shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both an officer of the Company and you. 10. Your failure to meet one or more of the applicable deadlines, or comply fully with any condition herein shall entitle the company to terminate this conditional commitment, or if applicable, any Swine Grower Agreement executed pursuant to this Conditional Agreement. Such termination shall be in writing, and shall be effective upon mailing by Certified Mail, Postage Pre -paid to your last known address. 11. The terms of this agreement shall be deemed to have been incorporated into and made a part of any Swine Grower Agreement heretofore or hereafter executed by the company and you, as if the same were fully set out therein. If the above terms and conditions are acceptable, date and sign both of the duplicate originals of this letter in the space provided below, and return it to the company in the enclosed self- addressed envelope. You should retain the other duplicate original for your records. The company's obligations shall begin upon receipt by it of the completed duplicate original from. Please note that if the company has not received a signed copy of this letter within 15 days from the date of this letter, it will be assumed you do not wish to enter into the Agreement, and the offer contained herein is withdrawn without further notice to you.

A technical specialist must verify by an on -site inspection that all applicable design and construction standards and specifications are met as installed and that all applicable operation and maintenance standards and specifications can be met. Although the actual number of animals at the facility may vary from time to time, the design capacity of the waste handling system should be used to determine if a farm is subject to the certification requirement. 'For example-, if the waste system For a feedlot is designed to handle 300 hogs but the average population will be 200 hogs, then the waste management system requires a certification. This certification is required by regulations governing animal waste management systems adopted by the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on December 10,. 1992 (Title 15A NCAC 2H _0217). On the reverse side of this page is the certification form which must be submitted to OEM before new animals are stocked on the farm.

Grady RR 2 Box 465 Mt. Olive NC 28365 July 20, 1994 Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your 10644 FEEDER TO FINISH SWINE operation The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan'uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield of the crops to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste `utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the wasteland to ensure that'it is applied in an environ- mentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. The amount of available nitrogen for plant use is dependant on the method of application. Soil type is important due to different leaching potential and yield potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of the waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the dnimal waste are based on typical nutrient content -for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less depending on the specific waste analysis report for your facility at the time of irrigation. !our waste utilization plan is based on the following: A.

If more commercial fertilizer is used than is shown in Table D, then additional acres of land will be needed. A 10 - 25 feet wide permanent grass filter strip should be seeded along all ditches in fields that receive animal waste. The acres shown in Table B are the usable acres in the field shown. Usable acres are the acres that must be able to receive animal waste. Buffer areas along ditches, houses, property lines, etc. have been subtracted from the total field acreages to arrive at the usable acres. The total acres shown on the attached map is needed for land application in order to have the proper buffer areas. A combination of land application equipment or irrigation equipment may be needed in order to properly land apply waste to all parts of the fields lasted.

Olive NC 28365 July 20, 1994 Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your 10644 FEEDER TO FINISH SWINE operation. The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield of the crops 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 environ- mentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. The amount of available nitrogen for plant use is dependant on the method of application. Soil type is important due to different leaching potential and yield potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. soil incorporation of the waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less depending on the specific waste analysis report for your facility at the time of irrigation. r. Your waste utilization plan is based on the following: TABLE A.

The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent arrd temporary storage) Lobe reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year -- 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year, and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begirt pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such a weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -- charged to 112 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start --up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When prec:harging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be usQd for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before, land application_ 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 93.7 as marked by permanent marker. Stop purnp-- out when the fluid level reaches elevation 91.7 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 182542 cubic feet or 1365411 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 A. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one ( 1 ) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. €iefer to the waste utilization plan for further det.ai.ls. S. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fert.ili_zed as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 5. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents 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 not to reach other property and public right—of—ways. 9. The Clean Water act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ— mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. SHEET 1 OF 2 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS FOUNDATION PREPARATION: The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stump,, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior - to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grader, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreadinq equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible. 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 and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre—feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.5 ft. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over -- excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a.SCS approved material (ie — CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS- SHEET ? OF 2 soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner- material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when t:he soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water - shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTMI D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the tie t lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner-, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement arid compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet: pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocksO or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional. construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: --------------- A cutoff trench shall be constructed under- the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: Ail exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulct-, shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS ------------------------------- When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The the trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material �:uch as SC, CL, or- CH. SEEDING SPECIFICATIONS AREA TO BE SEEDED: 4.5 ACRES USE THE SEED MIXTURE INDICATED AS FOLLOWS: 270.0 LBS.

ENGINEERING DEPAR'I'MIIVTI` FARM DESIGN QUESTIONNAIRE The following information on new farm or farm expansion designs must be provided to the Murphy Farms Engineering Department by the grower. This information is vital to the design process and must be received before the project can be scheduled for design. GROWER INFORMATION - Name: Address: Telephone: FARM INFORMATION= County 9-, Type of operation: # Buildings to be built and type: # of Animals: Population Date: Y�/� 110? 7 6'c szm&�— --- Do you request that the lagoon be designed for sludge accumulation? Designing the lagoon for sludge accumulation over a 10 - 15 year period can increase the total lagoon volume by approximately 50% - 75%. If the lagoon is'not designed for sludge accumulation, the permanent treatment volume will be reduced more quickly and more frequent sludge removal will be required to maintain the proper treatment volumes. Current SCS guidelines do not require that lagoons be designed for sludge accumulation, although it is recommended. Please indicate whether or not you want the lagoon designed for sludge accumulation. / f I WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN_ In accordance with North Carolina Administrative Code 15A-NCAC-2H Section .0200, Subsection .0217, under the jurisdiction of the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), any new or expanded animal waste management system must lave an approved animal waste management plan which includes a waste utilization plan. The Soil Conservation Service will prepare this waste utilization plan for you; however, it is the Grower's responsibility to request this from SCS. This request should be made prior to the initial site visit by SCS so that information for the waste utilization plan can be gathered along with the soils information.

Michael E. au66 District Conservationist WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN FOR Steve Grady Rt. 2 Mt. Olive NC 28365 June 23, 1994 Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your 3672 FEEDER TO FINISH SWINE operation. The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield of the crops 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 A -is applied in an environ- mentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. The amount of available nitrogen for plant use is dependant on the method of application. Soil type is important due to different leaching potential and yield potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of the waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements mdy be more or less depending on the specific waste analysis report for your facility at the time of irrigation. Your waste utilization plan is based on the following: TABLE A. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR NUMBER OF TONS WASTE PER TONS WASTE ANIMALS TYPE OF ANIMALS 1000 ANIMALS PER YEAR 3672 FEEDER TO FINISH 1900 6976.8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE B.

Grady RR 2 Box 465 Mt. Olive NC 28365 July 20, 1994 Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your 10644 FEEDER TO FINISH SWINE operation. The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients and lime can be balanced for realistic yield of the crops 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 environ- mentally safe'manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. The amount of available nitrogen for plant use is dependant on the method of application. Soil type is important due to different leaching potential and yield potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and reduce the potential for pollution, waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of the waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less depending on the specific waste analysis report for your facility at the time of irrigation. Your waste utilization plan is based on the following: TABLE A.

If more commercial fertilizer is used than is shown in Table D, then additional acres of land will be needed. A 10 - 25 feet wide permanent grass filter strip should be seeded along all ditches in fields that receive animal waste. The acres shown in Table B are the usable acres in the field shown. Usable acres are the acres that must be able to receive animal waste. Buffer areas along ditches, houses, property lines, etc. have been subtracted from the total field acreages to arrive at the usable acres. The total acres shown on the attached map is needed for land application in order to have the proper buffer areas. A combination of land application equipment or irrigation equipment may be needed in order to properly land apply waste to all parts of the fields listed. It is the responsibility of the producer to acquire whatever equipment is needed to properly land apply the waste.

POST OFFICE BOX 759 • ROSE HILL, NORTH CAROLINA 28458 (910) 289-2111 July 20, 1994 J.E. Grady Route 2, Box 84 Mt. Olive, NC 28365 Re: Preliminary swine Grower Commitment Dear Mr. Grady: on behalf of Murphy Farms, Inc. and Quarter "M" Farms, Inc., (hereafter referred to as "Company" or "Companies" for convenience), I am pleased to,"advise that you have been conditionally approved as an: independent contract grower upon the terms and conditions hereafter set out. The property that is the subject of'this Agreement is shown generally on Exhibit "A", the attached aerial photograph, and is further identified as Farm No. 8466, Tract No. T-3694, in the Duplin County offices of the Agriculture and Stabilization Conservation Services, ("ASCS"). As you have advised, the property is owned by J.E. Grady, Sr.. It is our understanding that you intend to identify the swine operation by the name of J.E. Grady Farm #2. Your proposed site has been inspected by, Jimmy Sauls, one of the companies representatives, and conditionally approved as a 3672 capacity swine finishing operation, and its related support facilities at an approximate construction cost of $270,000.00. This approval is conditional upon your compliance with the following terms and conditions: 1. All swine facilities and related accessory building structures, together with the waste disposal lagoons shall be completely located within the shaded areas on the aerial photographs, Exhibit "A". 2. You will provide the Company with written documentation that the proposed site, building(s), lagoon(s), and spray fields have been: (i) approved for their intended use by the Soil Conservation Service Technical Guidelines and all other applicable governmental bodies having oversight or regulatory control over such facilities; (ii) that you have contracted with a contractor or applicable subcontractors for the timely and proper construction of the facilities; and, (iii) that you are able, by use of your own resources or through financial arrangements made or agreed upon with a commercial lender, to financially comply with all applicable government regulations and to construct the facilities in the manner set out herein. Grower further agrees that at all tames during the terms of a Swine Grower Agreement, the property and facilities shall be maintained and operated in compliance with all provisions of all applicable federal, state and local governmental regulations or guidelines. An executable Swine Grower Agreement specimen is set out on Exhibit "B" for your review hereto attached and made a part hereof. 3. The swine buildings, support facilities, and related equipment shall be constructed and installed in accordance with the specifications and costs set out on Exhibit "C", hereto attached and made a part hereof. 4. Since the Company's scheduling of the time for the initial delivery of swine to Grower's facilities is dependent upon its supply of such swine and Growet's.completion of construction, the Phases hereafter set out shall be deemed controlling upon both parties. While it is contemplated in this agreement that Grower shall not' commence the construction under Phase Two prior to completion by Grower and acceptance by Company of all Phase One requirements, Grower may commence and complete the construction under Phase Two at any time Grower shall deem appropriate, but such action shall be at Grower's sole risk, as hereafter set out, since Company shall not be obligated and may not be able to supply swine to Grower's facilities prior to end of the Phase One and Two periods provided for in this Agreement. 5. For the general purposes above set out, the construction periods shall be divided and carried out in two (2) separate phases. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs (4) and (7), Grower shall not begin construction work on any of the buildings or support structures until Company has issued an approval letter to Grower acknowledging the satisfactory completion of the following First Phase requirements: PHASE ONE: A. A financing loan commitment letter issued by a bank or lending institution, which may be conditional upon certain matters. In lieu thereof, sufficient financial data that readily demonstrates Grower's financial ability to construct the facilities by the use of his own funds. B. If the site does not abut a dedicated public road, a recorded right-of-way easement to the public road with adequate width for constructing and maintaining the roadway for vehicular traffic and necessary utilities servicing and maintaining the facilities. C. An all weather access road shall have been fully constructed within the right-of-way to the selected construction site. D. All required county, state and federal permits shall have been issued, and copies provided to Company's Construction Department, containing no exceptions or conditional approval provisions that would materially affect Grower's right to begin construction or operate a swine facility of the nature and extent proposed by Grower, together with such approvals as are customarily provided by any such agencies having oversight responsibilities. E. All utilities to the construction site shall be completed. F. All slats set and pouring of all concrete except feed bin pads shall be completed. G. All earth work, including the construction of the lagoons and building pads, shall be completed. H. The deadline for completion of items A through G shall be on or before 160 days from the date of this letter, the final Phase One deadline date being the 27th day of December, 1994. PHASE TWO: Upon written notification to Company by Grower of the satisfactory and timely completion of items A through H, above, and Company acceptance of Phase One, Items A through H, Company will then issue written approval for Phase Two (2) to begin, which phase shall consist of and be subject to the following required work and conditions: - A. Company shall not be required to issue, and Grower shall not be entitled to receive the Phase One approval acknowledgment, and Phase Two construction approval letter earlier than 160 days from the date of this letter, notwithstanding Grower's satisfactory completion and Company's acceptance of the Phase one requirements prior to the end of the Phase One 160 day deadline. B. The Phase 2 construction shall consist of the construction of the buildings, and purchase and installation of all equipment and fixtures necessary for the operation of the swine facilities. All wells providing both potable water as well as the water for all other required activities shall be completed. C. All requirements set out in Phase Two, subparagraph B, shall be completed on or before 180 days of the date of issuance of the Phase 2 commencement authorization, the final Phase Two deadline date being the 25th day of June, 1995. 6. Grower shall give Company written notice of the completion of all Phase Two requirements, and Company's construction representative(s) shall be entitled to inspect the facilities preparatory to final approval. Completion and reasonable time for inspection by Company shall be a prerequisite for approval. Company may issue its written approval prior to the end of the Phase Two 180 day construction period, or within 35 days after the expiration of that Phase Two deadline. Notwithstanding Grower's early completion of Phase 2 requirements, and/or Company's voluntary early approval and acceptance of the Phase Two construction, Company shall neither be required nor obligated to issue its written findings or acceptance to Grower prior to the end of that 180 day period, and in the event of the earlier issuance of its acceptance, such action shall not be interpreted as a waiver or modification of Company's right or obligation as to select when to first place swine on Grower's premises, as hereafter provided. 7. Nothing in this letter shall be interpreted as prohibiting Grower, at his own option and risk, from beginning or completing any or all of the Phase One or Phase Two requirements prior to approval by Company of the applicable commencement or completion deadlines. However, it is understood and agreed between Grower and Company that, notwithstanding any. such early commencement or completion, no additional rights, not agreed to and signed by all parties in writing, shall accrue to the benefit of Grower than as herein provided. More specifically, the Company shall not be required to deliver any swine to Grower's facilities at any time earlier than five (5) weeks from the designated end of the Phase Two 180 day period, unless Company shall agree in writing to do so earlier. 8. Time is of the essence for compliance with the conditions herein set out, and strict compliance with all other provisions is material and critical. 9. No addition, modification, deletion or alteration of any condition herein set out or referred to shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both an officer of the Company and you. 10. Your failure to meet one or more of the applicable deadlines, or comply fully with any condition herein shall entitle the company to terminate this conditional commitment, or if applicable, any Swine Grower Agreement executed pursuant to this Conditional Agreement. Such termination shall be in writing, and shall be effective upon mailing by Certified Mail, Postage Pre -paid to your last known address. 11. The terms of this agreement shall be deemed to have been incorporated into and made a part of any Swine Grower Agreement heretofore or hereafter executed by the company and you, as if the same were fully set out therein. If the above terms and conditions are acceptable, date and sign both of the duplicate originals of this letter in the space provided below, and return it to the company in the enclosed self- addressed envelope. You should retain the other duplicate original for your records. The company's obligations shall begin upon receipt by it of the completed duplicate original from. Please note that if the company has not received a signed copy of this letter within 15 days from the date of this letter, it will be assumed you do not wish to enter into the Agreement, and the offer contained herein is withdrawn without further notice to you.

Pasture operations are exempt from the requirement to be certified, 100 head of cattle 75 horses - 250 swine - 1,000 sheep 30,000 birds with a liquid waste syste=k The certification must be signed by the owner of the feedlot (and manager if different from the owner) and by any technical specialist designated by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission pursuant to 15A NCAC 6F .0001-.0005. A technical specialist must verify by an on -site inspection that all applicable design and construction standards and specifications are met as installed and that all applicable operation and maintenance standards and specifications can be met. Although the actual number -of animals at the facility may vary from time to time, the design capacity of the waste handling systein should be used to determine if a Farm is subject to the certification requirement. 'For example-, if the waste system for a feedlot is designed to handle 300 hogs but the average population will be 200 hogs, then the waste management system 'requires a certification. This certification is required by regulations governing animal waste management systems adopted by the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) an December 10, 1992 (Title 15A NCAC 2H .0217). On the reverse side of this page is the certification form which must be submitted to DEM before new animals are stocked on the farm.

The waste from your animal -facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in,the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infilitration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre- cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,.or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage require- ments.should be based on the waste analysis eport from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling terchniques, preparatioii, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if.carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. r WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 3 TABLE 2: ACRES WITH AGREEMENT OR LONG TERM LEASE (agreement with adjacent landowners must be attached) (Rec'i-=ed only if operator does ncv own adequate land. see required specification 2.)

Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf area is covered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates-on'these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a crop on bare soil. 11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present. (See Standard 393 -- Filter Strips) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right -of ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface wasters, 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 should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to one (1) foot mandatory freeboard. 18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,. berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where'consideredappropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.

Tb(--. minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture cQntent which relates to that moisture coDtent when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water wnali be added to bayrow as "ecessarX to insare p/opar moisture context during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than uptimuo water content during pl*ccmAnt. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet fur efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Prope� compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and ^ compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material. When smuuth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted linev. The.?equenca of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compactiod process. For most clay saila, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. Mc Soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste u�tle� pipes. This can be done by using some type of cner&y dissipatop(rocks) or using flexible outlets an waste pipes. Alternatives to sail liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these ave specified, additional coxstrcctiar specifications are included with this Copstruction Specification. CUTOFF TREHCU: A cutoff trench shall be c:�st,ucted under the ~m5a^kuant are^ w\.a`. LKown on a typical �Iuss section in the plans.

Grady Route 2, Box 84 Mt. Olive, NC 28365 Re: Preliminary Swine Grower Commitment Dear Mr. Grady: 1 On behalf.of Murphy Farms, Inc. and Quarter "M"-Farms, Inc., (hereafter referred to as "Company" or "Companies". for convenience), I am pleased to advise that you have been conditionally approved as an independent contract grower upon the terms and conditions hereafter set out. The property that is the subject of this Agreement is shown generally on Exhibit "A", the attached aerial photograph, and is further identified as Farm No. 8466, Tract No. T-3694, in the Duplin County offices of the Agriculture and Stabilization Conservation Services, ("ASCS"}. As you have advised, the property is owned by J.E. Grady, Sr.. It is our understanding that you intend to identify the swine operation by the name of J.E. Grady Farm #4 . Your proposed site has been inspected by, Jimmy Sauls, one of the companies representatives, and conditionally approved as a 3672 capacity swine finishing operation, and its related support facilities at an approximate construction cost of $300,5191.00. This approval is conditional upon your compliance with the following terms and conditions: 1. All swine facilities and related accessory building structures, together with the waste disposal lagoons shall be completely located within the shaded areas on the aerial photographs, Exhibit "A". 2. You will provide the Company with written documentation that the proposed site, buildings) , lagoon(s) , and spray fields have been: (i) approved for their intended use by the Soil Conservation Service Technical Guidelines and all other applicable governmental bodies having oversight or regulatory control over such facilities; (ii) that you have contracted with a contractor or applicable subcontractors for the timely and proper construction of the facilities; and, (iii) that you are able, by use of your own resources or through financial arrangements made or agreed upon with a commercial lender, to financially comply with all applicable government regulations and to construct the facilities in the manner set out herein. Grower further agrees that at all times during the terms of a Swine Grower Agreement, the property and facilities shall be maintained and operated in compliance with all provisions of all applicable federal, state and local governmental regulations or guidelines. An executable Swine Grower Agreement specimen is set out on Exhibit "B" for your review hereto attached and made a part hereof. 3. The swine buildings, support facilities, and related equipment shall be constructed and installed in accordance with the specifications and costs set out on Exhibit "C", hereto attached and made a part hereof. 4. Since the Company's scheduling of the time for the initial delivery of swine to Grower's facilities is dependent upon its supply of such swine and Grower's completion of construction, the Phases hereafter set out shall be deemed controlling upon both parties_ While it is contemplated in this agreement that Grower shall not commence the construction under Phase Two prior to completion by Grower and acceptance by Company of all Phase One requirements, Grower may commence and complete the construction under Phase Two at any time Grower shall deem appropriate, but such action shall be at Grower's.sole risk, as hereafter set out, since Company shall not be obligated and may not be able to supply swine to Grower's facilities prior to end of the Phase One and Two periods provided for in this Agreement. 5. For the general purposes above set out, the construction periods shall be divided and carried out in two (2) separate phases. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs (4) and (7), Grower shall not begin construction work on any of the buildings or support structures until Company has issued an approval letter to Grower acknowledging the satisfactory completion of the following First Phase requirements: PHASE ONE: A_ A financing loan commitment letter issued by a bank or lending institution, which may be conditional upon certain matters. In lieu thereof, sufficient financial data that readily demonstrates Grower's financial ability to construct the facilities by the use of his own funds. B. If the site does not abut a dedicated public road, a recorded right-of-way easement to the public road with adequate width for constructing and maintaining the roadway for vehicular traffic and necessary utilities servicing and maintaining the facilities. C. An all weather access road shall have been fully constructed within the right-of-way to the selected construction site. D. All required county, state and federal permits shall have been issued, and copies provided to Company's Construction Department, containing no exceptions or conditional approval provisions that would materially affect Grower's right to begin construction or operate a swine facility of the nature and extent proposed by Grower, together with such approvals as are customarily provided by any such agencies having oversight responsibilities. E. All utilities to the construction site shall be completed. F. All slats set and pouring of all concrete except feed bin pads shall be completed. G. All earth work, including the construction of the lagoons and building pads, shall be completed. H. The deadline for completion of items A through G shall be on or before 160 days from the date of this letter, the final Phase One deadline date being the 17th day of August, 1995. PHASE TWO: Upon written notification to Company by Grower of the satisfactory and timely completion of items A through H, above, and Company acceptance of Phase One, Items A through H, Company will then issue written approval for Phase Two (2) to begin, which phase shall consist of and be subject to the following required work and conditions: A. Company shall not be required to issue, and Grower shall not be entitled to receive the Phase One approval acknowledgment, and Phase Two construction approval letter earlier than 160 days from the date of this letter, notwithstanding Grower's satisfactory completion and Company's acceptance of the Phase One requirements prior to the end of the Phase One 160 day deadline. B. The Phase 2 construction shall consist of the construction of the buildings, and purchase and installation of all equipment and fixtures necessary for the operation of the swine facilities. All wells providing both potable water as well as the water for all other required activities shall be completed. C. All requirements set out in Phase Two, subparagraph B, shall be completed on or before 180 days of the date of issuance of the Phase 2 commencement authorization, the final Phase Two deadline date being the 13th day of February, 1996. 6-. Grower shall give Company written notice of the completion of all Phase Two requirements, and Company's construction representative(s) shall be entitled to inspect the facilities preparatory to final approval. Completion and reasonable time for inspection by Company shall be a prerequisite for approval. Company may issue its written approval prior to the end of the Phase Two 180 day construction period, or within 35 days after the expiration of that Phase Two deadline. Notwithstanding Grower's early completion of Phase 2 requirements, and/or Company's voluntary early approval and acceptance of the Phase Two construction, Company shall neither be required nor obligated to issue its written findings or acceptance to Grower prior to the end of that 180 day period, and in the event of the earlier issuance of its acceptance, such action shall not be interpreted as a waiver or modification of Company's right or obligation as to select when to first place swine on Grower's premises, as hereafter provided. 7. Nothing in this letter shall be interpreted as prohibiting Grower, at his own option and risk, from beginning or completing any or all of the Phase One or Phase Two requirements prior to approval by Company of the applicable commencement or completion deadlines_ However, it is understood and agreed between Grower and Company that, notwithstanding any such early commencement or completion, no additional rights, not agreed to and signed by all parties in writing, shall accrue to the benefit of Grower than as herein provided. More specifically, the Company shall not be required to deliver --any swine to Grower's facilities at any time earlier than five (5) weeks from the designated end of the Phase Two 180 day period, unless Company shall agree in writing to do so earlier. 8. Time is of the essence for compliance with the conditions herein set out, and strict compliance with all other provisions is material and critical. 9. No addition, modification, deletion or alteration of any condition herein set out or referred to shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both an officer of the Company and you. 10. Your failure to meet one or more of the applicable deadlines, or comply fully with any condition herein shall entitle the company to terminate this conditional commitment, or if applicable, any Swine Grower Agreement executed pursuant to this Conditional Agreement. Such termination shall be in writing, and shall be effective upon mailing by Certified Mail, Postage Pre -paid to your last known address. 11. The terms of this agreement shall be deemed to have been incorporated into and made a part of any Swine Grower Agreement heretofore or hereafter executed by the company and you, as if the same were fully set out therein. If the above terms and conditions are acceptable, date and sign both of the duplicate originals of this letter in the space provided below, and return it to the company in the enclosed self- addressed envelope. You should retain the other duplicate original for your records.. The company's obligations shall begin upon receipt by it of the completed duplicate original from.

This information needs to be returned along with the signed commitment letter within 15 days. MURPHY FARMS, INC. ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT FARM DESIGN QUESTIONNAIRE The following information on new farm or farm expansion designs must be provided to the Murphy Farms Engineering.Department by the grower. This information is vital to the design process and must be received before the project can be scheduled for design. GROWER INFORMATION: Name: Address: /z r� J Telephone FARM INFORMATION: County:. Type of Operation: Z!�Zh ## Buildings to be built and type: Do you request that the lagoon be designed for sludge accumulation? Designing the lagoon for sludge accumulation over a 10 - 15•year period can increase the total lagoon volume by approximately 300 - 35%. If the lagoon is not "designed for sludge accumulation, the permanent treatment volume may be reduced more quickly and more frequent sludge removal will be required to maintain the proper treatment volumes. Current SCS guidelines do not REQUIRE that lagoons be designed for sludge accumulation, although the guidelines do RECOMMENDED it. Please indicate whether or not you want the lagoon /designed for sludge accumulation. WASTE UTILIZATION FLAN: In accordance with North Carolina Administrative Code 15A-NCAC-2H Section .0200, Subsection .0217, under the jurisdiction of the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), any new or expanded animal waste management system must have an approved animal waste management plan which includes a waste utilization plan. A copy of Subsection .0217 of the above referenced regulations is attached for your information, and is yours to keep. The Soil Conservation Service will prepare this waste utilization plan for you; however, it is your responsibility to request this from SCS. If you already have a waste utilization plan, please send a copy of it to us with the other information requested below. If you do not have a waste utilization plan, you need to request this from SCS as soon as possible, so that certification of your farm will not be delayed at the completion of construction. - OTHER INFORMATION TO BE SUBMITTED WITH THIS FORM: - Boundary survey map of the property if available - If this operation will require any land clearing, the grower must fill out a Form AD1026 at the ASCS Office to schedule an inspection for.%"a wetlands determination.
