The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manun
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 fie]
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,

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 Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estimate ofthe 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 deed 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.

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 facility and the plant available nitrogen application
rates shown in the second column.
Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatmentand application of the effluent. At
cleats 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 1 imiting. 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 betaken 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.

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, helshe 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).
--- -- - --- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
325793 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/222011 Specification Page 1
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offske 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. Wastetnutrient
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
brealdng 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.
- ----- -- -------------- ------------------------ - ---: --------------------------------------------------------------------
325793 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/22/2011 Specification Page 2
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
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.
-- - ---------------- =-----------------------
325793 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/222011 Specification Page 3
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.

Bermudagrass: CP, 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 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 bulac. Soil test for the amounts of lime, phosphorus,
potassium and micronutrients to apply preplant and for annual maintenance. Apply 60 to 100 lb/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 -
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

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 bulac is satisfactory to produce full groundcover in one or two years under good growing
conditions. Tifton 44 spreads slowly, so use at least 40 bulac 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 lb/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.
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.

Subject: Notice of Violation
Case #: NOV-2006-PC-0106
D & D Farms
Facility Number: 31-335
Duplin County
Dear Mr. Davis:
This is to notify you of violations to Swine Waste Management System General NPDES Permit
NCA200000 issued on June 10, 2005 under Certificate of Coverage NCA231335. On February 7,
2006, Mr. Chester Cobb from the Wilmington Regional Office performed an inspection of the waste
management system serving your animal operation. During the inspection, Mr. Cobb noted the
following violations:
1. Modification to lagoons
On February 7, 2006, Mr. Cobb observed that a waste transfer pipe had been buried from
lagoon #1 into lagoon #2. Any disturbance of the lagoon embankment requires written
documentation from a technical specialist certifying proper design and installation. No
written documentation was found with the farm records.
This is in violation of Condition No. III. 1 of the NPDES Permit that states in part "Any major
structural repairs to lagoons/storage ponds must have written documentation from a
technical specialist certifying proper design and installation. However, if a piece of
equipment is being replaced with a piece of identical specifications, no technical specialist
approval is necessary ... unless the replacement involves disturbing the lagoons/storage
pond embankment."

i 2. Sludge Applied to Fields not in Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP)
f
f
f On February 7, 2006, Mr. Cobb observed farm records documenting sludge removal and
application during October 2004. No sludge management plan or amendment to the current
CAWMP was found for the sludge removal. An amendment to the current CAWMP or
certified sludge management plan is needed to document where the sludge is to be applied,
nutrient loading (PAN rate), and hydraulic loading.
This is in violation of Condition No. II. 12 of the General Permit that states in part "At the
time of sludge removal from a lagoon/storage pond, the sludge must be managed in'
accordance with the CAWMP."
In response to these violations, this office must receive a written explanation of the violations
and a description of the actions to be taken to prevent the recurrence of these violations within
fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of this notice. Also, have an engineer check and certify
the work done to the lagoon embankments.
You may wish to contact your County Soil & Water Conservation District Office, County Extension
office, a qualified technical specialist, and/or a professional engineer for any assistance they may be
able to provide.
Be advised that the Division of Water Quality may take further action in these matters including
assessment of civil penalties, injunctive relief, and permit revocation.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to call Mr. Chester Cobb at
910-796-7264.

RE: Waste Transfer Pipe
Dear Mr Davis,
This Letter is in reference to our conservation on October 11"0 2005.
Installation of a transfer pipe between the two lagoons will in no way interfere with or
impede dike integrity if proper precautions are taken.
Any disturbed areas should be reseeded to minimize potential for erosion.
Any/All water transfers should be done such that no erosiontwashing may occur on
dike walls
If this office can be of further assistance please give us a call at the above listed
number.
Than You,
Billy W. Houston

Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
This letter is to notify you that the subject facility is in violation of its General Permit
NCA231335 Condition 1I1.16.
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA231335 Condition HI.16 states:
"All facilities, which are issued a COC to operate under this permit, shall conduct a
survey of the sludge accumulation in all lagoons within one (1) year of receiving the
COC and every year thereafter.. This survey shall include but not be limited to a sketch
showing the depth of sludge in the various locations within each lagoon. This survey
shall be submitted as part of the facility's annual report in the year it was conducted.
This survey frequency may be reduced if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the
Division that the rate of sludge accumulation does not warrant an annual survey.
If the sludge accumulation is such that it is greater than the volume for which the lagoon
was designed or reduces the minimum treatment volume to less than the volume for
which the lagoon was designed, a plan must be submitted to the Division's Central Office
within ninety (90) days of this determination which documents removal and waste
utilization procedures to be used."
Our records indicate that the Division has not received the sludge survey results for the year
2004 from your facility. The form was due March 1, 2005. To avoid possible enforcement
action for a violation of your permit, please submit the results within thirty (30) days to the
following address:

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
D&D Farms
Facility Number 31-335
Duplin County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Dean Hunkele on 6/10/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "Y'.
Category 1:
The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist.to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you
are unable to provide Dean Hunkele with the information you are automatically
required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2
below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter.

Category 2:
❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification mustbe submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-335
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. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRYS, SLUR], SLUR2,
SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
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 (919) 733-5083 ext. 571.

System Calibration 'JUL 1 n 1998
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation"rdonditionsermytUng
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 & MAINTENANCE PLAN JUL I n 1998
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 extendglclnrainy&SPM}d'ermitbng
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 Ievel 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
statc Iaw 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 bernnudagrass 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 Ieast 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 f6f, proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps l
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 11 maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
I . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during car 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
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 Iagoon 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.

Management:
Practice water conservation ---minimize building water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. .Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge.
i
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.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
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. Irrigation by using center pivot, gun, or
traveler is the preferred and most efficient method to dispose of
the effluent from the lagoon. Care should be taken when applying
waste to prevent damage to the crops and to prevent runoff from
the fields.
The fallowing items are to be carried out:
1. Begin.pump-out_of the lagoon when fluid level reaches invert
of the outlet pipes or at a pr e-determ i ifL-d elevation,
2. Stop pump -out before the lagoon depth is less than 6 feet
deep or'dt a pre -determined depth. (This prevents the loss of
favorable bacteria)
3. The recommended amount to apply per irrigation is one inch,
and maximum recommended application rate is 0.5 inch per hour.
4. It is recommended that the treatment lagoon be precharged to
1/2 its -capacity tp prevent excessivZ odors during beginning
stages of the operation. Precharging reduces the concentration of
the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors.
Solids should be covered with water at all times.
S. Keep vegetation on the..embankment and areas around the lagoon
and buildings mowed.
6. Repair any, eroded -are'as ,and estab l-i sh in vegetation.
7. The Cl ean_Water _Act _of_ 1977-;proh i b.i is the _ d,i scharge, of
poll utants into 'waters -.of.- the:. Un i ted States... Zhe, Department of

law.
r
r
S. All surface water is to,be diverted from the lagoon.to an
adequate and stable outlet. -
CERTIFICATION:
I�hereby certify that I understand the operation'.and_ina.intenance
requirements stated,above.. Furthermore, I understand how many
acres are required i.n order to land apply the waste and that
the lagoon may have to be pumped 2 or more times a year. This
design has been -explained to me and I agree with all provisions
stated in the design. I also certify that there are no residence
\other than mine or my tenants' within 750 feet of this operation.
I understand that compliance with this design DOES NOT prevent
someone from suing me because of nuisance or other reasons.

Producer: D & D FARMS
Location: 281 BURN COAT RD
PINK HILL NC 28572
Telephone: 919-568-4337
Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals:-3672.00 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 wasteti\s to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as -the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before ach application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged s�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 -Fan utilize.-
2 Soil -types are-i.mportant as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities,_ and.
available watef,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. j
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.
A

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
r
5.ir, 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 aid
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.changingiwaste 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 arried out, meets the requirements
for compliance.with 15A NCAC 2H 0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission. --
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, f t3, tons, etc.)
3672 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 6976.8 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT'.AVAILABLE NITROGEN,(PAN) PRODUCED PER'YEAR
3672 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year '84,5.6 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.

Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interse6ded,

Page: 4
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 ---punted 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.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
*** 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 1358.64 ounds of -plant available nitrogen per year in the.
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 gears, you will have approximately 6793.2
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass•hayland at the rat'e-of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need -22.644 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 54.3456 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25o depending on your
sludge.waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods..
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. 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 kb installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
Page: 7

* 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 shownican be applied under optimum soil
conditions. —
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be r�moved on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance sho�ild the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the ?5 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
_V1
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
-Ritrogen 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 day be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providirig grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG SCandard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be,r.educed 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 conserivation tilled crops or
-`grassland; the -waste may bd.broadcast provided .'the application
does not occur during a season prone.to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North -Carolina" for guidance.) a
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at,,rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur oftsite'or to
surface waters and in.a method which.does not_cause.drift.from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such -
a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.

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 crap 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 thos\ 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,..- w_ aste 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.

_i�
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 wit in 60 days of utilization and soil
shall be tested at least nnually at crop sites where waste
product's 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

Dear M r- _[) C1 tit s
Enclosed is your lagoon design prepared by Lr4,vt Ek i AL6C4 3 6>J l pc and reviewed
and approved by the Soil Conservation Service. -This lagoon, as designed, meets SCS
standards and specifications. It is the responsibility of the contractor and you to build the
lagoon according to the design. You should contact the swine company to get assistance in the
layout of the lagoon for construction. If you have any questions during construction, please
contact this office or the swine company.
Please be aware that SCS has not checked the excavation and fill volumes of dirt. The swine
company has computed these figures and any questions regarding the amount of excavation
should be directed to the company. SCS does not certify that excavation and fill volumes are
correct.
If you would like for the SCS to certify that th lagoon has been built to design specifications
and meets SCS specifications and standards, personnel from this office will need to conduct a
final construction check prior to animal waste being put in the lagoon. State Iaw requires that
new and expanded operations have Iagoons that meet the SCS minimum design specifications.
Ili order to certify the lagoon, we must get bottom elevations as well as top of dike and
sidesIope readings. If given a few days notice, we will try to schedule the construction check
prior to the contractor leaving the site; however, since we schedule several days in advance, it
is best if you -let us know as soon' - as possible when you -believe that a construction check will
be needed.
Also enclosed -is a contractor -certification -that must -be signed -by the contractor once.t.he_
[aboorf is completed. We need this form returned to us before tide certify that -the lagoon.
meets our specifications. You -may want -to inform your contractor prior to beginning the
job that you will need him to certify his work meets the design requirements
If you have any questions concerning this design or the accompanying waste utilization plan.
please contact us.

' OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
-------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1.) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usuall,y the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started,or stoppad at any time between these two
elevations for operating conveni nce as site conditions permit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipme t in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
ceriter pivot, guns,_ and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be' carried out:
1.• -It is strongly recommended that the -"treatment lagoon be pre-
charged.to l/2 its capacity to prevent e:o�ssive odors during
start-up. Pre --charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste -entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors., Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be_used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This -
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land -application.
3. Begin temporary.storage pump -out of the lagoon.when fluid level
reaches the elevation 44.2 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump -
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.0 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 61878 cubic feet or
\ 462845 gallons.
SHEET 2 OF-
4. The 'izecommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation: is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum applicat-nr, rate is 0.1
inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization Mar: for further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
8. -Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet o;f a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways
9. The Clean Water Act of-1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has,the resp sibility for enforcing this law.
SHEET 1 OF
SPEJIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
-----------------------------------------------------------
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
-----------------------
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for rise on
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
-----------------------------------
The completed excavation and eiarthfill shall conform to the lines,
grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
be free of material such as sad, roots; €rozen soil, stones over
6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The .fill
shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose a d prior to compaction. Each layer
will be compacted by complete cNerage with the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method.
Compaction will. be considered ad quat.e when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
NOTE THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed using the"snore i-mpervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for
settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment
capacity of 10 acre=feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC
Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation
from the constructed height to the downstream tee of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during donstruc,�ion to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1.8 ft.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRE➢ WHEN THE ATTACHED.SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
IS INCLUDED -IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT.
When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over -
excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled
as specified to grade with a SCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH).
\ REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.

SHEET - OF '
Soil lini�r material scull come from an approved borrci area. I e
minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture
content which relates to that ituJistu:-e content when the soil is 1:neaded
in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Ca?hter
shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximum water content relates -to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and'
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the ne:_t
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-.
ability of a clay liner, other than`the type of clay used for the
liner, is the. efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment useland the routing of equipment in an estab-
li`shed pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soil liner shall by protect d from the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be done by usii some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on wast% pipes. r
Alternatives• to soil liners are -synthetic liners.and bentonite sealant.
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
included with this Construction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
--------------
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the,plans. -The final depth of the
cutoff trench -shall.. be. -determined .by observation -of the --foundation -
materials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
--------------------------------
When tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The the
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

Duplin County
Dear Mr. Davis:
On August 11, 1997 Staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality,
inspected your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. It was observed that some erosion
of the clay liner has occurred on the lagoon. Large arts were observed in various sections of the inner dike
walls of lagoon #1. It is our concern that some of these gullies may become deep enough to cut through
the liner material and sacrifice the integrity of the structure.
As discussed at the time of the inspection, the cuts should be filled with a suitable clay material,
compacted and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover. In addition, the inlet pipes from the hog
houses m lagoon #1 should be extended further into the lagoon and the eroded areas backfilled and reseeded.
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. Davis:
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

Dear Mr. Davis:
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 31,11997. 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.
Sincerely,
/01Steve Tedder, Chief
