The The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution------
of surface water andlor 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.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
1 of 8
This plan Is based on the waste appticabon method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

LAND UTILIZATION SUMMARY
The following table describes the nutrient balance and land utilization rate for this facility
Note that the Nitrogen Balance for Crops indicates the ratio of the amount of nitrogen produced
on this facility to the amount of nitrogen that the crops under irrigation may uptake and utilize
in the normal growing season.
Total Irrigated Acreage: 30.14
Total N Required 1st Year: 8652.6
Total N Required 2nd Year: 0
Average Annual Nitrogen Requirement of Crops: 8,652.60
Total Nitrogen Produced by Farm: 2,496.00
Nitrogen Balance for Crops: (6,156.60)
The following table describes the specifications of the hydrants and fields that contain the crops
designated for utilization of the nitrogen produced on this facility. This chart describes the size,
soil characteristics, and uptake rate for each crop in the specified crop rotation schedule for this
facility.
2 of 8
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, andfor 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 definately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

The 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 374.4 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 1872 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 6 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 14.976 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
'This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for >180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to property apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land -to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide
evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recievinq 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, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See 'Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application- No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
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.
10 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Wasteinutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,
1995, shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland
provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

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. Humping 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 soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and
terminates your previous COC Number AWS310291 which expired on April 30, 2003.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Jamie Dail Nurseries, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 5200 Wean to Feeder 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 October 1, 2004. 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.
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.

TYPE OPERATION: Wean - Feeder
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 5200
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 the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic
yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to
be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates,
leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per
year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons
per 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 ion runoff to surface waters
which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of
nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to
planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor
problems..
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient
content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste
analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information
on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab
for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with
15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Amount of Waste Produced Per Year (gallons, ft. tons. etc.)
5200 animals X 0.42 (tons) waste/animal/year = 2,184.0 (amt.) waste/year.
Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) Produced Per Year
5200 animals X 0.48 lbs. PAN/animal/year = 2,496.0 lbs. PAN/year. (PAN from N.C. Tech.
Guide Std. 633)
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
and surface application:

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in
some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
9 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 and agreement for use of adequate land on which 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 90
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.
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 wither 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 no 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 wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by
prior converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by
a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways
that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste
shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that 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 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.
Page 6
M00202041702
18 Waste hackling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.
19 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption is should only be applied perplant with no further applications
of animal waste during the crop season.
20 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of
the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping
shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between markers. A marker will be

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 the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic
yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to
be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the
crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates,
leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per
year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons
per 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 ion runoff to surface waters
which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of
nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to
planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor
problems..
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient
content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste
analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information
on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab
for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with
15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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 and agreement for use of adequate land on which 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.
Page5
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential
for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable wither 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 no 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 wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by
prior converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by
a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways
that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste
shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that 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 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.
Page 6
18 Waste hackling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.
19 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption is should only be applied perplant with no further applications
of animal waste during the crop season.
20 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of
the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping
shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between markers. A marker will be
required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
21 Waste shall be tested within 69 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.
22 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

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.

OPERATION & MAIM ENANCE 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 lodges! debris
Embankment —look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability —slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the hack 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 operatedfrequently 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.
I. immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or. bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4: When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full.lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 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 betterthe
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
tIT ' i I P It # I gr
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 orvegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign m=erias into the -lagoon -
Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
Maintain strict vegeration, 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 Iagoon 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 dra_gi;ne or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into Iagoon; 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 dw 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 Iow 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. A=r ing proper design and constriction, the owner has the responsibility for
enstirirg 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 constriction. (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.

OPERATION AND MAINTINANCE PLAN
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level {permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year — 24 hour storm for the location.
The voiump of waste generated from a given number of animals will V,
fairJy constant throughout the year and from year to year, but exces..
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will ovl-:
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
"volume must always be available.
A rtraximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet inert of pipe(s) i'rom
bUlding(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevations
to indicate; when pumping should begin. An elevation must_ be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
Elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such a•s
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runott or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. its is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre --
charged to 112 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start—up. Pre —charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids ,should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging in complete:,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
S. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommenK sampli"g and 04ting of waste (see attachment)
before lard application.
3. Begirt temporary storage pump ---out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 99.0 as marked by permanent marker. Stop punp"-
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 97.2 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr— 24 hr storm, contains 33261 cubic feet or
248836 gallons.
t
SHEET 2 OF
4. The recommended maximum amount Lo apply per i t rigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maxinwm application rate is 0.
inch per hour. Refer to Lhe waste utilization plan for further- details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment:, and areas adjacent to the
lagoun mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
Co maintain a vigorous stand.
o. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7 . Ali surface runoff is to be diverted from the tagoon td sta b l.:_,
outlet..
8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will.
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within lA@ Feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment. Health, and Natural Resources. Crivision of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WA TE TREAFMENT LAGOON_;
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
-----------------------
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area _should be stripped and stockpiled for uoe o1i
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened pr:ior-
Lo placing the first lift of fill material to yet a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the line• ,
grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones ovor"
u incises in diameter, and other- objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The till
shall be brought up in approximately hor.i.xontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness, when loose and prior to compaction. Each 14yer
will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping roller or other- equivalent method.
Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LI.NFh
SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed using the more impervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent tot,
settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment
capacity of 10 acre—feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC
Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation
from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.4 ft.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED :TOILS
1NVESr1GATION REPORT 50 INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL Is
LNCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINER; ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOIL'S R P061 .
Whrk:" areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over —
excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
perpendicular- to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backttil.ed
as specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie — CL,SC;,CH).
REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.
Si EEI 2 OF 2
Soil liner material shall home from an approved borrow area. The
minimum water- content of the liner material shall be: optimum moisture
content which relates to Chat moisture content when the sail is kneaded
in the hand it will forme a ball which does not readily separate. Water
shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper- moisture coriCt_"L
during placement of the litter. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum waL r content during plaCt'rirPHU.
The maximum water content r„•laces to the soil material being too wet
for Efficient use of hauling equipment and proper- compaction. Pr-opwi
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM 0698 Dry Unit:
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous llft
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next
-lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted ,pane --
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the
liner, .is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an usr_c,u—
lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placements and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or shecpsfout
r•oilar is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soul liner- shall be protected Own wn the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type: of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on waste pipers.
A.lCornatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bent.;onite sealant -
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
included with this Construction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff trench shall be: constructed under citeembankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of Chu
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundatlori
materials.
VEGETATION-.
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after- construc—
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed
on area=, of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should he established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
-------------------------------
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimuiti
of 10 WE beyond the: outside toe of slope of the dike_ The tile
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such a,
SE, CL, or CH.

Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-291
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, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2,
SLD 1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms_ Sonya Avant of the

Dear Mr. Mobley:
On April 30, 1998, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water
Quality inspected your anirnal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation_ It was observed
that waste had been applied to spray fields in excess of 30 days prior to planting the corn and
soybean crops.
NRCS-USDA requirements specify that waste must not be applied in excess of thirty (30)
days prior to planting an appropriate cover crop. In addition, the spray records should be kept by
pull number and field number, using the correct acreage for each pull when recording and
calculating the waste applications. The correct Plant Available Nitrogen loading rate should be
used for each crop and each field in the waste application records. An irrigation map and lagoon
design information should be in the certified animal waste management plan. We suggest that you
contact your service company, local NRCS or Soil and Water District office for any assistance
they may be able to provide to correct the situation.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within
fourteen (14) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to comply with your waste
management plan. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status,
requiring it to obtain an individual non discharge permit.

Dear Mr. Mobley:
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 Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 91gn33-0026.

I (we) understand the operation and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste

expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treatment and storage system or construction of new
facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the Division of Environmental Management
before the new animals are stocked. I (we) also understand that there must be no discharge of animal waste
from this system to surface waters of the state either directly through a man-made conveyance or through
runoff from a storm event less severe that the 25-year, 24-hour storm. The approved plan will be filed at the
farm and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District.

All statements checked apply to this certification:
The installed irrigation system has not been evaluated concerning nozzle size, spray pattern, spacing, pump size, pipe size,
etc. It is the responsibility of the producer to operate the system with the proper components and to supply the required
maintenance to assure that no runoff occurs. The producer is encouraged to have an irrigation specialist, possibly the dealer
where the system was purchased, prepare an operation and maintenance plan for the irrigation system so that the producer
knows how to operate the equipment to meet the non -discharge requirements.
The waste management plan for this operation is based upon yields higher than what is now recommended by NRCS;
however, these yields are obtainable under high levels of management. This increase in projected yields is necessary since
the NRCS plan prepared for this operation at the time of construction was based upon these higher yields and the producer
followed NRCS guidelines when building this operation.
Because of limited acres for land application, and because the original MRCS waste utilization plan did not require
additional acres for buffers and irrigation inefficiency, .it may be necessary for the producer -to. operate half sprinklers, on
solid set systems, along field edges and ditches. Also for traveling irrigation systems, a pull directly adjacent to the ditch with
only a 180 degree pumping radius may be needed to irrigate the entire field. Extreme caution should be exercised when
applying waste close to ditches and wetlands to avoid any discharge.
CERTIFICATION FOR EXISTING FEEDLOTS
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CERTIFICATION OF APPROVED ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMENT PLANS FOR EXISTING ANIMAL
WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS SERVING FEEDLOTS
REQUIREM ENTSIPURPOSE
In order to be deemed permitted by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), the owner of any existing animal waste
management system constructed and operational before January 1, 1994 which is designed to serve greater than or equal to,the animal
populations listed below is required to submit a signed certification form to DEM before January 1, 1998. Pasture operations are exempt
`from the requirement to be certified.
100 head of cattle
75 horses
250 swine
1,000 sheep
30,000 birds with a liquid waste system
The certification must be signed by the owner of the feedlot (and manager if different from the owner) and by any technical specialist
designated by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission pursuant to 15A NCAC 6F .0001-.0005. The technical specialist must verify
that all applicable operation and maintenance standards and specifications can be met. Existing systems are not required to meet design
and construction standards and specifications.
Although the actual number of animals on the facility may vary from time to time, the design capacity of the waste handling system should
be used to determine if a farm is subject to the certification requirement. For example, if the waste system for a feedlot is designed to
handle 300 hogs but the average population will be 200 hogs, then the waste management system requires a certification.
This certification is required by regulations governing animal waste management systems adopted by the Environmental Management
Commission (EMC) on December 10, 1992 (Title 15A NCAC 2H .0217).
CERTMCATION FORM
On the reverse side of this page is the certification form which must be submitted to DEM before January 1, 1998. Assistance in
completing the form can be obtained from one of the local agricultural agencies such as the Soil and Water Conservation District, the
USDA -Soil Conservation Service, or the N.C.. Cooperative Extension Service. The Completed form should be sent to:

Dear Mr. Mobley:
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 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 (919) 733-5083.
