These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be wil zed for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge most be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than oi: equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated- If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

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 that 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.propeely dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order - to control odor and flies. 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/4/2004 Specification Page 1 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land . application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic. rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16.

These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronornic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

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 that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/4/2004 Specification Page I 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients_ from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Wastelnutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. - ------------------------------------------------------------------ -- -- 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/4/2004 Specification Page 2 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. -------------------------------------- --------------- ------------------------ -----------------­--­- --------------------------------------- 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/4/2004 Specification Page 3 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): P6, P5, P7, P8, Pivot Corn: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leaching In the Coastal Plain, com is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-301bs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 3040 days after emergence. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the cam. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production. The following crop note applies to field(s): P6, P5, P7, P8, Pivot Wheat: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, medium leachable In the Coastal Plain, wheat should be planted from October 20-November 25. Plant 22 seed/drill row foot at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Adequate depth control when planting the wheat is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of diseases, insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production. ------------- -------- -------------------- -- ----------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- ...... 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 03-04-2004 Crop Note Page Page 1 of 2 The following crop note applies to field(s): PI Fescue: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained Adaptation: Marginal. In the Coastal Plain, tall fescue can be planted Sept. 1 to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 301b/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac, seed. Use certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Tall fescue requires adequate soil moisture for persistence and production. Soil test for preplant and maintenance time, phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 lb/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% to 50% for grazing. Apply N Feb. 1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance. The following crop note applies to fteld(s): P6, P5, P7, P8, Pivot Double -Crop Soybeans, Coastal Plain: Mineral soil, medium leachable Double -crop soybeans should be planted as early in June as possible with planting completed by July 4th. When no -tilling soybeans in small grain straw, it is essential to manage the straw to achieve adequate plant populations. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended for the soybeans can be applied to the wheat in the Fall. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential for profitable double crop soybean production. 306635 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 03-04-2004 Crop Note Page Page 2 of 2 GP, tl>a d y a M r �V� m 4 Ap tl Tye 'd ° ntltl Auo D � �>F - ,r � ° �J•B "l as ti Y f A B °)U'° 6• � a n 1 y\ 9 •� R Y3�p w iD ' �l�y� m AfhG%TM'b d *W� owl 4 a Z '„ 1 A D 4 ?`aP 4d 4 t ary Y a P c �'i ` Wet o PoPo ''yJJJP bRL s ° 44 £� q ' P a U I „"YYCkk'P" Rom."

Environmental Regional Supervisor II cc: Paul Sherman WIRO File CAWMP AMENDMENT Bobby Brown Farm X X 9/13/06 This amendment is intended to extend the pumping window on soybeans. During a field visit to the farm on 9/12/06 the soybeans in the pivot field were found to be in a growth stage that is still receptive to nitrogen application. The soybeans were planted July 12, 2006 and this has delayed the plants from reaching maturity and would allow the need for more Nitrogen at this time. Therefore the pumping window on these soybeans can be extended until September 30, 2006.

Only the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Brian Wrenn on 3/9/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". -- Category 1: ❑ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Dean Hunkele with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. -- Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

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. IRRI, IRR2, DRY I, 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 recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action.

DESIGNED BY: APPROVED BY: DATE: DATE: NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN COMMENTS: OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with min. odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be reached (permanent + temporary storage) may vary due to soil conditions flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume based on: 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after evaporation; and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the average of once every 25 years. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. This estimate is based on 7 inches of excess rainfall which is equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in a year. The average annual excess rainfall is approximately 8 inches. Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall will need to be pumped each 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 on the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment depth (6 feet). 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-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva- tion 44.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.1 or before the fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25 year storm is 135282 cubic feet or 1011912 gallons. As stated before, this volume will vary considerably from year to year. 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. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. 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. 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. r' SEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS ----------------------- AREA TO BE SEEDED: 3.0 ACRES USE THE SEED MIXTURE INDICATED: 180 LBS.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS Clearing: All trees and brush shall be removed from the construction area before any excavating or fill is started. Stumps will be removed within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas and all excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceeding one (1) inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1) foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly before placement of embankment material. Lagoon site (and pad site if needed) to be stripped of topsoil (311) and stockpiled for use on dike and pad slopes (2-311). The topsoiling quantity is in excess of amounts specified on page one (1). Cut-off Trench: A cut-off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in the plans. Construction: Construction of excavated and earthfill areas shall be performed to the neat lines and grades as planned. Deviations from this will require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall be placed in max. of 6" lifts and not placed in standing water. Compaction shall be performed by the construction equipment or sheeps-foot roller during placement. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall include ten (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage, when areas of unsuitable matp are encountered, they will need to be excavated a minimum of +1t- foot below grade and backfilled and compacted with a SCS approved material (ie-CL,SC,CH). Refer to the soil investigation information in the plans for special considerations. Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. Vegetation: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction according to seeding specifications sheet.

This data sheet is to be used for recording the info rmatiorn.obtained through field studies and -for. documenting the hazard -classification. Where there is a possibility for loss of life or major property damage from a dam failure, an approved.breach routing procedure is to be used. (Consult with the area engineer.? Hazard'cTassifications of dams are made by evaluating the possibility for loss of life and the extent of damage that would result if the dam should, suddenly breach --that- is --a section -of the dam be suddenly and . completely washed.. out. .It is to be assumed that a wall of water will. be re Leased equal to .the height of the.dam. This flood wave.wi.11 be reduced in height as it moves down the flood plain. The wave height (depth of flooding) should be evaluated for a sufficient distance downstream until the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements, such as homes, buildings, roads, util-ities, reservoirs, etc. The breach flood level will be reduced depending on the valley storage, slope, and openess of the flood plain; however, in a narrow steep valley slopes . steeper than 10% should be given special consideration. One method of evaluation is to compare available valley storage (under flood conditions) to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach evaluated with a judgment estimate made of the flood wave height at all_ critical points downstream. Should there be any questions about the hazard classification for a dam, the area engineer should be consulted before making design commitments_ .. 1 RECEIVED +TMQUAUTYSEC11ON •, UNITED STATES SOIL DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION W 0 71998 AGRICULTURE SERVICE --------------------------------------------------MdEisii; gN WASTE MANAGEMENT FACILITY SITE EVALUATION GENERAL INFORMATION NAMjdb6yAuw %--! -7- - LOCATION��S�_11's? 1dPR L 1Lg�siolLs TELEPHON ------------------ SIZE OPERATION------ L�}Q� LS LOCATION DATA DISTANCE FROM NEAREST RESIDENCE NOT OWNED BY PRODUCER L00__-FT.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. Page: 1 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.): 2880 animals X 985.50 gal/animal/year = 2,838,240 gallons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (Ibs): 2880 animals X 2.30 Ibs/animal/year = 6,624.00 Ibs Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Page: 2 The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown, soil type, and surface application.

'A negative number reflects the total Ibs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the nitrogen produced by the farm. NOTE: This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed'when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. N Page: 3 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. The following legend explains the crop codes listed in the table above: Crop Code ro A Barley B Hybrid Bermudagrass - Grazed C Hybrid Bermudagrass - Hay D Corn - Grain E Corn - Silage F Cotton G Fescue - Grazed H Fescue- Hay I Oats J Rye K Small Grain - Grazed L Small Grain - Hay M Grain Sorghum N Wheat O Soybean Lbs N utilized / unit yield 1.6 Ibs N / bushel 50 Ibs N / ton 50 Ibs N / ton 1.25 Ibs N / bushel 12 Ibs N / ton 0.12 Ibs N / Ibs lint 50 Ibs N / ton 50 Ibs N / ton 1.3 Ibs N / bushel 2.4 Ibs N / bushel 100 Ibs N / acre 133 Ibs N / acre 2.5 Ibs N / cwt 2.4 Ibs N / bushel 4.0 Ibs N / bushel Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. 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 sludge based on the application method listed earlier. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 5184.00 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 17.28 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 41.47 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.

In many situations, the application Page: 5 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 responsiability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste. Additional Comments: Land listed as row crop will be in com-wheat-soybean rotation. -vu-+A-41 Page: 6 NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN CERTIFICATION Name of Farm: Owner/Manager Agreement: I/we understand and will follow and implement the specifications and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste nutrient management plan for the farm named above.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, matunade 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 o%vns; or has a notarized 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 a notarized agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operaiton, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual yields nmy be used in lieu of realistic yield tables at the discretion of the planner. 4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acrea per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393-Filter Strips) S. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occure during a season prone to flooding. (See "Witeather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occure off -site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the sire during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the Surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt damage lront animal wasta should also be considered 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on Soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 day s Prior to planting of a crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a compunet of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river oilier than an irrigation ditch or canal.

LAGOON -MA- R FREEBOARD + -'-'=)YR/24HR STORM MAXIMUM 17VEi L- - MINIMUM PERMANENT OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with min. odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be reached (permanent + temporary storage) may vary due to soil conditions flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume based on: 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after evaporation; and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the average of once every 25 years. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year. This estimate is based on 7 inches of excess rainfall which is equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in a year. The average annual excess rainfall is approximately 8 inches. Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall will need to be pumped each 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 on the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment depth (6 feet). 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: I. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to 1/2 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 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 pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva- tion 44.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.1 or before the fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25 year storm is 135282 cubic feet or 1011912 gallons. As stated before, this volume will vary considerably from year to year. 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. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. 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. 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. lNfor(alily A-Tanagemenl l'iclholls (cht cl which method(s) :ire bein_t implemented) ❑ Burial three feel beneath lilt: surface of the ^.round will 24 hours after kre-wil or public the tiv o'll, The burial must be :u Icast 300 feet from pny nowing / strcant or public Lode of w: ter. 1Zcndcrin; at a rc7Jcring plant licensed under G.S.

The General Permit was issued to enable swine facilities in North Carolina to. obtain coverage under a single permit that addresses both State and Federal requirements. In accordance with your application received on March 13, 2003, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Bobby Brown, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES General Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your COC Number AWS310254 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Bobby Brown Farm, located in DuplinCounty, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 2880 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). 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 July 1, 2007. 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 General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and Federal general permit it contains many new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the current State general permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this Wrmit The Devices to Automatically Stop Irrigation Events Form must be returned to the Division of Water Ouality no later than 120 days following receipt of the Certificate of Coverage. The Animal Facility Annual Certification Form must be completed and returned to the Division of Water Ouality by no later than March 1st of each year.

This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake. This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation. Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field. lil.....e i 'r-M- V Tract Field Source I.D.

These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern_ Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

The. start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity. Availahle.

Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 Filter Strips). 5, Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drif from the land application field. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 716906 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 04-25-2002 Specification Page 1 of 4 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 716906 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 04-25-2002 Specification Page 2 of 4 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 the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. i9. 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. 2o. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 716906 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 04-25-2(H)2 Specification Page 3 of 4 21.

Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10%when planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-30 Ibs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the retraining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 3040 days after emergence. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the com. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for com production. The following crop note applies to field(s): P2, P2a, P3, P3a, P4, P4a, P5, P6, P7. P8 Wheat: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, medium leachable In the Coastal Plain, wheat should be planted from October 20-November 23. Plant 22 seed/drill row- foot at l-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed bevond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate'bv at least 10% -,,,ten planting no -till. Adequate depth control when planting the wheat is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 Ibs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of Februarv-March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of diseases, insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 716906 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 04-25-2002 Crop Note Page I of 2 The following crop note applies to field(s): P I Fescue: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained Adaptation: Marginal. In the Coastal Plain, tall fescue can be planted Sept. I to Oct. 15 (best) and Feb. 15 to Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 Ib/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 Ib/ac. seed. Use certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Tall fescue requires adequate soil moisture for persistence and production. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 Ib/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 130 to 200 Ib/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% to 50% for grazing. Apply N Feb. I to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance. The following crop note applies to field(s): P2. P2a, P3, P3a. P4. P4a- P5. P6. P7. P8 Double -Crop Soybeans, Coastal Plain: Mineral soil, medium leachable Double -crop soybeans should be planted as early in June as possible with planting completed by July 4th. When no -tilling soybeans in small grain straw, it is essential to manage the straw to achieve adequate plant populations. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended for the soybeans can be applied to the wheat in the Fall. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 Ibs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential for profitable double crop soybean production. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 716906 Database Version 2,0 Date Printed: 04-25-2002 Crop Note Page 2 of 2
