Participant Selection
Due to current funding levels for the CLEANEAST
Program, not all eligible applicants to the program
may be selected to receive technical services. A primary
objective of the CLEANEAST Program is to improve
environmental quality in impaired watersheds in the
Eastern United States. Selection of the owner/operator
participants receiving technical services may be
prioritized based on site location with respect to impaired
surface waters and other factors. Every effort will be made
to ensure equitable selection of participants across animal
types, farm sizes, and geographic regions.
Program Confidentiality
Confidentiality of lion -public information and findings
for each individual livestock or poultry operation will
be maintained by the assigned TAP and the CLEANEAST
Program administrators. Distribution of the final EA
report, NMP amendment, or new NMP for an individual
operation to other parties is at the sole discretion and
approval of the owner/operator. -
Ivlore Information
To learn more about the CLEANEAST Program including
the program services, how eligible owners/operators
apply to participate in the program, and the qualifications

For cddirionnl information or to request
an enroll, nent form toll 7.866.381.1191 (roll6 Ee).
TW—W—DFUKEL Md 50570

The CLEANEAST Program provides confidential, no -
cost technical support to owners and operators of
beef, dairy, swine, and poultry operations located
in the Eastern United States to help them identify
and implement farm management practices that
protect the environment. Owners/operators who
apply and are selected by the program receive on -site
support services from a qualified Technical Assistance
Professional (TAP).
Program Services
The technical services offered by the CLEANEAST
Program are:
• Environmental Assessment (EA). The TAP conducts
a confidential on -site environmental review of the
owner/operator's livestock or poultry operation and
prepares recommendations that can be implemented
to address any identified environmental issues.
• Existing Nutrient Management Plan (NMP) Review
and Update. The TAP reviews the owner/operator's
existing NMP, then identifies and prepares necessary
NMP documentation to update the plan for the current
livestock or poultry operation.
• New NMP Development. The TAP collects the needed
information and performs the required analyses to
prepare an NMP for implementation at the owner/
operator's livestock or poultry operation..
Program Administration
The CLEANEAST Program is developed and
administered jointly by RTI International (RTI) and
North Carolina State University (NCSU). Funding
support for the program is provided under a
cooperative agreement with the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. TAPs are independent
subcontractors to RTI with certifications and expertise
specific to the states where they are assigned to work
for the CLEANEAST Program.
Benefits to Program Participants
• Provide owner/operator with an objective, confidential
review of site operations, identify any environmental
issues and suggest potential remedies.
• Determine if a livestock or poultry operation is
in an impaired watershed and whether manure
management practices can be implemented to
contribute to improving water quality.
• Help owner/operator formulate long -tern nutrient
management strategies.
• Improve manure management efficiency.
Costs to Program Participants
The services of the TAP are provided at no cost to
the owner/operator. The owner/operator fills out an
operation profile for the TAP and meets with the TAP at
the ownedoperator's site.
Participant Eligibility
Owners/operators of livestock and poultry operations
located in any of the 27 eastern states shown in the
map below are eligible to apply for technical services
from the CLEANEAST Program.

How the Program Works
1.Owner/operator applies for program services and is
- selected.
2. Qualified TAP is assigned to complete requested
service for livestock or poultry operation.
3. TAP contacts owner/operator and schedules date for
on -site visit.
4. TAP conducts site visit to meet with owner/operator
to collect information about the site, livestock,
poultry and crop operations.
5. TAP uses collected information to perform site -
specific calculations and prepare documentation for
requested service.
6.Owner/operator receives final EA report, NMP
amendment, or new NMP as appropriate for the
requested service.

M, VCompliance Incentives
EPA provides incentives I'or environmental compliance. By
participating in compliance assistance programs or voluntarily
disclosing and promptly correcting violations before an
enforcement action has been initiated, businesses may be
eligible for penalty waivers or reductions. EPA has two such
policies that may apply to small businesses:
EPA's Small Business Compliance Policy
ww,w.epa.gov/compliance/incenfives/smallbiisiness/indcx.htmi
This Policy offers small businesses special incentives to come
into compliance voluntarily.
F PA's Audit Policy
%vww. epa.gov/cornpl iancei i ncenti vesiatid i ti n e/auditpo I icy.litm I
The Policy provides incentives to all businesses that
voluntarily discover, promptly disclose and expeditiously
correct their noncompliance.
Commenting on Federal Enforcement Actions and
Compliance Activities
The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(SBREFA) established a SBREFAOmbudsman and 10 Regional
Fairness Boards to receive comments from small businesses
about federal agency enforcement actions. If you believe that
you fall within the Small Business Administration's definition
of a small business (based on your North American Industry
Classification System designation, number of employees or
annual receipts, as defined at 13 C.F.R. 121.201; in most cases,
this means a business with 500 or fewer employees), and wish
to comment on federal enforcement and compliance activities,
call the SBREFA Ombudsman's toll -free number at 1.888-
REG-FAIR (1-888-734-3247), or go to their website at www.
sba.gov/ombudsman.
Every small business that is the subject of an enforcement or
compliance action is entitled to comment on the Agency's actions
without fear of retaliation. EPA employees are prohibited from
using enforcement or any other means of retaliation against any
member of the regulated community in response to comments
made under SBREFA.
Your Duty to Comply
If you receive compliance c 'stance or submit a comment
to the SBREFA Ombudsman Regional Fairness Boards,
you still have the duty to comply with the law, including
providing timely responses to EPA information requests,
administrative or civil complaints, other enforcement actions
or communications. The assistance information and comment
processes do not give you any new rights or defenses in any
enforcement action. These processes also do not affect EPA's
obligation to protect public health or the environment under any
of the environmental statutes it enforces, including the right to
take emergency remedial or emergency response actions when
appropriate. Those decisions will be based on the facts in each
situation. The SBREFA Ombudsman and Fairness Boards do
not participate in resolving EPA's enforcement actions. Also,
remember that to preserve your rights, you need to comply with
all rules governing the enforcement process.
EPA is disseminating this information to you without rnakint;
a determination that your business or organization is a small
business as defined by .Section 222 of the Sinall Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act or related provisions.

Animal Waste Management System
Duplin County
Dear M and A Phillips, LLC:
In accordance with your application received on 20-Feb-07, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to M and A Phillips, LLC, 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 M and A Phillips, LLC, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 2640 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 Ill.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 oav
careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws,:nrles, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility. . -+
Per 15A NCAC 02T .0111(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall
continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS
standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is.made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Wilmington Regional Office. The Regional Office
Aquifer Protection staff may be reached at 910-395-3900. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact the Animal Feeding Operations Unit staff at (919) 733-

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. Infiltration rate varies with soils. If
applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the
maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum
application amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

The folloa'ine Lai=oon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge
utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source.
thenumber of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column.
La,_,00n sluchre 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 agronontic 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 Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity available
at the end of each month of the plan. 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 la ,00n 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.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Nlanagement
I. 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).
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 wwaste 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, drainagewways, 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 wwashdown 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.
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.

The waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. 'I -his plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of clopland needed to use
the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, mil proper timing of applications to
maximize Ilntt'ient 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 marine 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 Geld 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.

Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effl t ` jOe out, this
material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority ilti I ii; n open but

application of sludge must be carefully applied. I 1111

Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields sho I e us I for
sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields w it11 'i i you s of
copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water movi g ;t nd lakes,
phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern. !I 1 11,11'

The waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the unlnber 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, 11161 nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to
maximize nutrient uptake.
This sable provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estinwte of the nitrogen amount being supplied by nruau'c ur other by-products,
commercial leitilizer 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 pfoduccd 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.

The following Lagoon Sludiae Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge
utilization for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitro=en 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 orLanic 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 eery high.
application of sludge Hurst 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 hi_h 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 Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity available
at the end of each month of the plan. Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacip 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.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation
or land application. Any discharge of waste 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.
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, MRCS 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.
- .......------------------- --------- ----- ------ ..... ----- .......... ----------- ..
728175 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/21/2006 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 ,vinter 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.
------ . ... ----- ----- ........ -------------------------------- - -
728175 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/21/2006 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
%%oodv 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)

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): p3. p4, p6. p8
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain. Mineral Soil. Poorly Drained to Somewhat Poorly Drained.
Adaptation: Effective artificial drainage MUST be in place to achieve Realistic Yield Expectations
provided for these soils.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 1" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and
wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a
rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing
conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bu/ac in 1.5' to 2' rows spaced 1' to 1.5' in row.
For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 Ib/ac N in
the establishment year in split applications in April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 240
Ib/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts.
Reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization
of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for more information or consult your regional agronomist or
extension agent for assistance.
The following crop note applies to field(s): p7, p9
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain. Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs I" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and
wind. For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a
rate of 30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing

For broadcast/disked-in sprigs use about 60 bu/ac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 Ib/ac N in
the establishment year in split applications in April and July. For established stands apply 180 to 240
lb/ac N annually in split applications, usually in April and following the first and second hay cuts.

The Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are shown in the following table. I�ltration rate varies with soils. If
applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the
maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum
application amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of acres needed for sludge utilization
for the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of
animals in the facilitri and the plant available nitrogen application rates shorn 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 shtdge
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 mac also be a concern.

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate of the number of days of storage capacity available at
the end of each month of the plan. 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 vet 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.

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation
or land application. Any discharge of waste 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, MRCS 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.

S. 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.
Ib. 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.
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.

Storage and Application System
Duplin County
Dear M and A Phillips, LLC:
On March 14, 2003, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued an NPDES General
Permit for swine facilities. 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 18, 2003, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to M and A Phillips, LLC, 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
AWS310269 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 Mark A Phillips, LLC, located in DuplinCounty, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 2640 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 hermit. The Devices to Automatically Stop Irrigation Events Form
must be returned to the Division of Water Quality 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 Quality by no later than March 1st of each year.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.'
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon or any wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C, the Clean Water Act and 40 CFR 122.41 including civil penalties, criminal
penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit. after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual NPDES Permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on
this process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Wilmington Regional Office. The Regional Office
Water Quality Staff may be reached at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact Sue Homewood at [phone] ext. 502.

ANIMAL WASTE &IZIZATION PLAN
Producer: M and A PHILLIPS LLC
Location: 903 WARDS BRIDGE RD
WARSAW NC 28398
Telephone: [phone]
Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 2640.00 hogs
(Design Capacity)
STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon
APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown
and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more
nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or
when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may
result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION'PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2640 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 5016 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2640 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 6072 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

*** This number must be less than or equal to 0 in order to fully
utilize the animal waste N produced.
Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 976.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4884
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 16.28 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 39.072 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 250s depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop..
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application
rates and amounts.

'ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by
runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. 'Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10'tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil -
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such
a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.
Page: 10

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 199S shall
comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of
a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms,
pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and
other woody species, etc.,, are limited to areas where considered
appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence
of erosion, leakage or discharge.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent. breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil
shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste
products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North
Carolina regulations.

Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to _prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the -crop to be grown
and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more
nitrogen than the crop can utilize..
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.,
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or
when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may
result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want.to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2640 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 5016 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2640 hogs x 4.6 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 12144 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The. following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

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

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 976.8_pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately.4884
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 16.28 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 39.072 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by'25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.'
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

* 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 amountshown cannot
be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by
runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of'application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5.tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during -a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in.fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall
comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of
a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied.closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13'. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms,
pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and
other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered
appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence
of erosion, leakage or discharge.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping,.pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil
shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste
products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3).
years. Waste application records .for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North
Carolina regulations.

Memorandum
TO: North Carolina Cenilied Technical Specialists
FROM: NC State.University Forage Production 1Norkcroup
DATE: July 13, 1998
SUBJECT: Crop.Management Practices for Select Forages
Used in Waste Manaoernent
The fol-lowing is a Your -page summery of suggestions for marl_gement practices for Some
forage crops that can be used in wa_;te managerent plans. Thesc suggestions are a result of
discussions within the NC State Univcrsit}' Forage Production Work -group, a group comprised
of NC State faculty and NRCS agency personnel with expertise with the'crops.
1 1 1 1
There are limited documented research responses of some of these practices on the.many soils
and environments where these crops are currently being grown. The Forage Production
Workgroup has taken the available data and used the combined experiences and realistic
estimates of key people to come up with suggestions that will allow farmers to incorporate
these crops .and practices' into waste management plans.. As data become - available to
substantiate of refute thesesuggesdons, the Forage Production Workgrnup will, make
appropriate changes.:
Bermuda Overseeded With Cereal Rye and Annual Ryegrass
Currently two types of ,Vegrass are being. used for winter oversee dtng in_ fields_used for
animal- waste management Cereal. ry is a winter annual' smallgraut thatAooks similar, to
wheat, barley and oats_ Annual rveeracs_is a winter annual grass ihatlo6ks much ike tali
fescue. Both of these grasses. when growing during the: winter on bermuda sod can have
significant impact on subsequent bermuda yields. In effect, the total yields from dn- acre -
growing the combination of bermuda with these winter annuals will usually yield between
tons rnore per acre than bermuda growing alone for the year. Therefore, the: total amount of
PAN /acre for the year is about 100 lbs more than for bermuda alone. Although cereal rye and
annual ryegrass are suitable crops for overseeding, the management of the crops are different
and thus practices implemented are dependent on the crop selected.

Annual Rye.grass
Annual.ryegrass'should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to•get winter i

bermuda sod followed by alight cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate
for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 turtzs the rate for drilled seeds. The last

Gamegrass esiabh hes slowly and will not usually produce much har%,estable Iorage during
the establishment vcar. It is best ro allow the growth durJnff the seedling ye to accumulaic
for most or all season; if it is to b2 harvested, it should be done after luil seedhead forntation
on a rmliority of the plants. Therefore., PAN for the .seedling year should 'aa modified
accordingly. Overseeding gam2gras_ with winter annuals is no( cur-ent'y advised because the
harvesting or grazing management of the winter zLmrual crops during' 1=coruarv-April would be
detrimental to the survival of gamagrass. Gamagrass should not normally be harvested or
!gra2ed below 6,8 inches stubble.
Application rates are to be based on the realistic N rates that address the N needs per ton of
hay, a realistic yield and an appropriate application window. When harvested as hay in the 24-
36 inch stage of growth, the N rate ranges from 40-50 Ibs/ton of dry maser. The PAN rate for
grazed systems must be reduced in accofdance with NRCS Technical Standard "590.
The application window for gamagrass is slightly earlier thari for bermuda;,gamagrass starts
growing about 3-4 weeks earlier than Coastal bermudagrass and about 2-3 weeks earlier than
Tifton 44. Gamagrass is dormant from frost to March. Thelast application of PAN in the .
summer should be prior to August 31.
Rescuegrass (i.e. Marua) -
Rescuegrass is a cool season grass and snakes most of its growth from March -June and
September -November. It should receive most of its N during the September -October and, late
February through May months. Limited data are available for realistic yields of rescuegrass
on various soils and at various N levels in North Carolina. However, until further data i$
collected the following suggestions may be useful
1, On sandy, well drained to excessively drained soils, rescuegrass may yield 1.5- 3 times
fescue, assuming a uniform and dense stand of grass is present.

NOTE: SEE ATTACHED WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
-----------------------
Owners name--:Lenwood Benson County:Duplin
Mail Address-:Kenansville, NC
Type of production 0
Type of waste facility ------:Anaerobic Lagoon
Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a
given storage capacity. When the waste reaches the designed
level, it 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 amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops on 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 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 your waste
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer- value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater- than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not
apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor- problems. To maximize the value
of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste
or disking 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. Acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility.
The design of your waste management facility is based on the
following:

2640 animals x 1.9 tons waste/animal/yr= 5016 tons

Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen Produced Per Year:

Applying the above amount of waste is a big .job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in
a timely manner. Your facility is designed for 180 days of
storage. Therefore, it will need to be pumped every 6
months.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions, flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
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 runoff from the field or 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. `
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B)
before land application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion _ 59.3 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 57.3 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inch per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on tte,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.
B. 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.

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.
- Cut-off Trench:
A cut-off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in
the plans.
Construction:
Construction of excavated and earthf ill areas shall be performed to the neat linesand grades as planned. Deviations from this will
require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall not be placed
in standing -water and reasonable compaction --of the fills 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 material are encountered, they will need to
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and -
compacted with a suitable material (ie-CL,SC,CH). Refer to the soils
investigation information in the plans for.special considerations.
Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent. excessive
erosion and sedimentation: d� t�dd�+ .�y U rGcn/i7� d� J����°�`n '' 3 .G-1c� /a

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating,
the waste. -
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes ---look for:
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

Lagoon surface ---look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment ---look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability ---slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required.. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
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 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon liquid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate
- biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.

Practice water conservation ---minimize building water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Management:
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as far away from the drainpipe_ inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegetation; rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
- full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:

proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and Crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels ---high levels are a safety risk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity ---protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.

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 example, operating the system with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction
Of pull. Set out collection containers 25.feet apart along the transect on both
sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all
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.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: LENWOOD BENSON
Location: 421 WARDS BRIDGE RD
RENANSVILLE NC 28349
Telephone: [phone]
Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 2640.00 hogs
(Design Capacity)
STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon
APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses.nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
2640 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 5016 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
2640'hogs x 4.6 lbs'PAN/hogs/year = 12144 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

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

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and.perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 976.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4884
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 16.28 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 39.072 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

* 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 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by
runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such
a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. Thd potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.
Page: 11

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall
comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of
a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms,
pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and
other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered
appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence
of erosion, leakage or discharge.
Page: 12

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil
shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste
products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North
Carolina regulations.

TYPE OPERATION: Feeder to Finish Swine
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 2640 hogs design capacity
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application
cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on.the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infilitration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available
water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre-
cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per
acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is
raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM
regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and -downwind -odor problems. To maximize the value of the nutrients
for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the
waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting.the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is.based on waste.application through irrigation for this
is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If .you
choose to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste are
not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage require-
ments should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste
management facility. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to
the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time
and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

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

NOTE: 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 976.8 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
especial equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
PAGE 6
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
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.
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 waste being stored in
your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report
for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 7
Plans and Specifications
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either has owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within
a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility
to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is
a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulati-ons that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
--4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM.
(See FOTG-Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when the
wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally
tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops
or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in
the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file 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 conditions' conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in
such a manner that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf
area is covered.

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

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-269
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. IRRI, IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2,
SLDI, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
DWQ staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Dear Mr. Benson:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Bang Huneycutt of our staff at 919/733-0026.

Dear Mr. Benson:
This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently
modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management
(DEM), Water Quality Section.
On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water
quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for
animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface.waters
of the state. The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain
minimum criteria are met (15A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have
met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted.
We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds
listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993
and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form (copy enclosed) to DEM by
December 31, 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must
obtain signed certification before animals are stocked on the farm. Certification of an
approved animal waste management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water
Conservation Commission adopts rules later this year.
. We appreciate you providing us with this information. If you have any question about
the new nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at [phone].
