In accordance with your application received on 4-Jan-07, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Bud Rivenbark, authorizing the operation of the subject animal
waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the Bud Rivenbark Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 7200 Boar/Stud: 0
Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0
Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0
If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows.
Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows
may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009 and replaces the NPDES
COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue
conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension
in Condition III.19 does not apply.
Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the
conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An
adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information
must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design
capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a
modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either
wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is
a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pav
careful attention to the record keening and monitoring conditions in this permit.

NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN M_
Grower(s): Bud Riv.anbark
Farm Name: Bud Rivenbark
County: Duplin

Farm Capacity: 7200
Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon RECFAV05
Storage Period: 180 days inns 5 2007
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.
s aste should be analyzed
waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. W
-:ore each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown!
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on. saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
J 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
need to revise � this plan. Nutrient levels for different applicationn method Shown above. if you.cose to s
methods in the future, y
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and tionp typ
e. Lime be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop p
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.):
7200 animals X
986 gai/animal/year = 7,095,600 gallons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (ibs):
7200 animals X 2.30 ibs/animal/year =
16,560.00 Ibs
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.

•A negative number reflects the total lbs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient

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

SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.36 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
in sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12960.00
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43.20 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 103.68 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
(—'fe irrigation application rate should hot exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
:ch that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
Irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

The average thickness of the sludge layer is determined from the Lagoon Sludge Survey Form. The
dimensions of the lagoon and the side slope are needed for calculations. If the lagoon is a standard geometric
shape, the volume of sludge in the lagoon can then be estimated by using standard equations. For rectangular
lagoons and constant side slope, calculate length and width at midpoint of sludge layer, and multiply by sludge
layer thickness to calculate sludge volume. If the lagoon is an irregular shape, the sludge volume can be
estimated by using the total surface area in square feet and taking the square root to obtain the dimensions for a
square lagoon, and then use the same procedure as listed below.

Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-226
Duplin County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. EPRI, IRR2, DRYI, DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all reconikeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

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.
- . Is waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
.;'ore ea6h application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop io be growni
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 8PPIY 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 6 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on ' saturated soils, when It Is raining, or when the surface Is frozen.
Either of these conditions May result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maxIMIZO the value of the nutrients for crop production ano. to reduce the potential
for pollution,, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan Is based on the waste applicatiOn method shown above. if you.choose to change
methods In the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste Is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some Cases You may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be fle)dble so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lima 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 1 5A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PROOLICE0 PER YEAR ( gallo ns, ft3, tons, etc.):
7200 animals X 986 gallanimal/year = 7,095,600 gallons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (Ibs)*.
7200 animals X 2.30 lbs/animal/year =
16,560.00 lbs
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste In a timely manner.
'rho following acreage will be nee I ded for waste applic ation based on the crop to be grown,
11 type, and surface application.

*A negative number reflects the total lbs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed In chart. A positive number means additional acreage Is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above,
The applicator Is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers In some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
n Interplanted fields ( Le. small grain, etc, Interseaded in bermuda), forage must be removed
ugh grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should Do grazed when they
",,h a height of six to nine Inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
ielght of four Inches. In fields where small grain, etc, Is to be removed for hay or silage, care
hould be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late In the season (i.e.
kp6l or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this YAII clefinately interfere
Oth stand of bermudagress. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
eing utifted. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as Is
j�e normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain eadier.,,You may want to
;onsider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
me small grain Is planted In the fall.
'he Ideal time to Interplant small grain, etc, Is late September or early October. Drilling Is
scommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
bout two inches before drilling for best results.

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 applicietion of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge Wil be nutrient dch and will require precautionary measures tc
prevent over applIcatIon of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.36 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year In the
In sludge based on the application method listed earlier. I I
if you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12960.00
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43.20 acres of land, If you apply
the sludge to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 103.68 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could very by 26% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
le Irrigation application rate should not exceed the Intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
ch that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate Is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids, The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
if surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, It Is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is Installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown In the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following Is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 purnped 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 lagoon involves the following
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermuclagrass 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 th�it 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:
I . separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall conclitien of pipes
Lagoon surface —look for:
I . 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 rl-viewed 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:
I . 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:
I . adequate vegetation
2. d iversion 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 front 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.
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 I 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-sternmed forage or vegetation,
0
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 spreadei
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 phosphor -us
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 over -top 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.
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 alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For examp:e, 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 sca!e 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 provideci
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of
pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of
the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all
nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers
of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation
dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

This nutrient management plan has been specifically developed for this swine operation.
The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of applicdation for
this particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should
be used to reduce the ammount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops where the
waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are
encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to
be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing this nutrient management plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environment-
ally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil
types are important as they have different infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste
shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than five tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on to 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
nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a grovVing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this
type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less depending upon the
waste analysis report for your waste management facility.

N'Vaqslt�e Utilization Specifications
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoflE. drift, marimade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of was te which reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject to the
assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Environmental Manacemerit
(DEI�� for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) field oFhce must have docu, mentation of
the farm Nutrient Management Plan in the design folder showing that the producer either owns
or has long terTn access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land , he shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement with the
landowner within reasonable proximity, allowing the fan-ner the use of the land for waste
application for the life expectancy of the production faciiiry. It is the responsibility of the owner
of the facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a charige in the
operation such as: an increase in the number of animals, method cfut:iiza:ion, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed the ri�itro.-en needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historicai data, climate conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource I'Vlanagement system (R-MS) or an
Alternative Conservation system (ACS). If an ACS is used, the soil loss shall not be greater than
10 tons/acre/year and appropriate filter strips will be used where rianoff leaves the Beld. T"hese
filter strips will be in addition to buffers required by DE.M.
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disk-ing after waste application. To rn�inirriize
0
odors and drift waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing excessively.
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 Booding.
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that r'unoff
does not occur off -site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift firom the
site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control conditions conducive to
odor or fly production and provide unilormity of application.'
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall evencs, or when the surface
is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be appUed on actively growing crops in such a manner that no more than
20 to 25, percent o F the leaf area is covered with solids.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planti�ncz a crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface waters. This distance may be
reduced for waters, that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present-
12. Animal waste shall not be appUed closer than 100 feet to wells.
U. Animal waste shall not be appUed closer than 200 feet to dwellings other than those owned
by the facIty operator.
14. Waste shall be appUed in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste s�all not be discharged into surface waters, draina.geways, or wetlands by a
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 appUed on grassed waterways zhat discha=e directly into ,vater courses, and
only then at agronornic rates pro,,ided the application causes no runod or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from wash -down facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, e:c., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a maxi murn
operating level to provide adequate storage for a 23-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to the
one 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 considered appropriate. Lagoon
areas should be kept moved and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected
regularly for evidence of erosion., leakage, or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or term�inated, the owner is responsible
for obtaining and implementing a closure plan which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal
discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis
to prevent brea—kdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checkEst should be kept on site.
For farms constructed after October 1, 1995, the rollowing apply, as well:

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. I
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 israining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations. I
Page: 1
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant.analysis made, which coulc
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
21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.):
7200 animals X 986 gallanimal/year = 7,095,600 gallons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (lbs):
7200 animals X 2.30 lbs/animal/year =
16,560.00 lbs -
App . lying 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.

*A negative number reflects the total lbs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the

NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen -
Page: 3
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may resu!t if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cuffing small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be 6razed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding
required buffers, filter strips alon6 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.
Page: 4
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.36 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
in sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12960.00
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 43.20 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 103.68 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application pnor to applying the waste.
Additional Comments:
Plan revised to reflect the acres on
Un -numbered field is presently being cleared.
All excess grass not used for grazing is to be cut for hay.

DISSOIVEQ OXYGFN.- The estimated dissolved oxygen concentration of 7,76ma/L
(mean daily average), is based on a weighted measurement of dissolved oxygen
Measurements and associated effluent flow rate ratios where applicable- Our
calculated weighted dissolved oxygen concentration of 7-76 is greater than the
minimum discharge limitation of 6-0 mg/L (daily average effluent
concentration).

as less than 0.1 MI/L. The maximum daily effluent limit is 10 ml/L-
DH-- Measurement of weighted composite sample yielded a pH of 7.79
Eatimation of Annuai Effluent Flow Rate- Annual effluent flow rate estimated
from measured flow rates was calculated as 17-96 million a-allons/yr-

Dear Mr. Rivenbark:
On September 1, 1998, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality, inspected your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. It was observed
that there are erosion cuts on the inner dike wall of lagoon #2 that could sacrifice the integrity of
the dike wall.
As discussed at the time of the inspection, the erosion cuts should be filled with a suitable
clay material, compacted and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover. In addition, the level
of your waste lagoon must be lowered and maintained in accordance with the NRCS guidelines
and the state 2H .0200 rules governing animal waste management systems. The bermuda crop in
all of the spray fields should be improved. Bare areas on the inner dike wall of lagoon #2 should
be revegetated. We suggest that you contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water
District office for any assistance they may be able to provide to correct the situation.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within
fourteen (14) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste
management plan. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status,
requiring it to obtain an individual non discharge permit.
Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes and Rules to discharge
wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit and/or to fail to follow a certified
waste management plan. The Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources has the
authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per violation.

The irrigation parameters listed in your Waste Utilization Plan (WLJP) exceed current NRCS
recommendations. Irrigation events are to be listed in the WUP as the maximum application allowable for that
soil type from the time the pumps are turned on until the time they are shut off. NRCS currently recommend that
total application amounts not exceed one inch in any application event for any soil type. If your application rates
need to be adjusted for the application of animal waste, please have your Technical Specialist revise your W-UP to
reflect the appropriate application amount per event If the application rates are correct as written, please have
your Technical Specialist justify the increased application rate in the narrative of your WUP.
All revisions / amendments are required to be signed and dated by both the landowner and the Technical
Specialist before they are submitted for review. Please reference the subject permit application number when
providing the requested information. All information should be signed and submitted in duplicate to my attention
at the address below. The information requested by this letter must be submitted on or before August 14, 1998 or
the Division will return your application as incomplete in accordance with 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your

from your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan:
1) Site Evaluation and Site Investigation (include wetland delineation if applicable)
2) The Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) for this facility shows an application rate on small grain
overseeded on Bermuda grass at 100 pounds of nitrogen per ton of hay. The yield listed for small
grain in the WIT is one ton. This application rate exceeds the allowable rate of 50 pounds of
nitrogen per ton of hay for small grain in NRCS Standards. Please revise your V,1UP to show an
application rate of 50 pounds of nitrogen per ton of hay on the small grain overseed.
All revisions / amendments are required to be signed and dated by both the landowner and the Technical
Specialist before they are submitted for review. Please reference the subject permit application number when
providing the requested information. All information should be signed and submitted in duplicate to my attention
at the address below. The information requested by this letter must be submitted on or before June 11, 1998, or
