Dear Mr. Kin;:
The Division of Water Quality (Division) received your sludge survey information on March 31,
2011. With the survey results, you requested an extension of the sludge survey requirement for
the lagoon at the King & Sons Farm. Due to the amount of treatment volume available, the
Division agrees that a sludge survey is not needed until 2014.
The next sludge survey for the lagoon at this facility should be performed before December 31,
2014. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please call me at [phone] if you have
any que$tions.
Sincerely,

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 year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when
it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of 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
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 Then; 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 property 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 -l0 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.
Page 5

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 winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 -Filter Strips).
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste 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.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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 animal waste
during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of. utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the. rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal 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.

Jerrell Brown Farms
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Duplin County
In accordance with your Notification of Change of Ownership received on November 28, 2006, we are
hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Preston and Renee King,
authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application
system in accordance with General Permit AWG 100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Jerrell Brown Farms, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 2448 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). if this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009, and shall hereby void
Certificate of Coverage Number AWS310372 dated 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. Am adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the. CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this- is a revised State
General Permit, it contains- new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and

Dear Jerrell Brown:
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General. Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General
Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on February 26, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Jerrell
Brown, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS310372 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 Jerrell Brown Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 2448 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in
the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until 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.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property. ��

TELEPHONE: [phone]
TYPE OPERATION: Feeder to Finish Swine
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 2448 hogs design capacity
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application
cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always
apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infilitration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available
water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre-
cautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per
acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is
raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM
regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize,the value of the nutrients
for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the
waste should be applied to a growing -crop or applied to bare ground
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste.or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this
is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you
choose to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste are
not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage require-
ments should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste
management facility. Attached you will find information on proper
sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to
the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.

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

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

NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic
land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be
nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent
over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production
facility will produce approximately 905.76 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 5
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of
the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs.
This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure,
soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the
soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen
applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6 months. In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
your structure be within 1.7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of'land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report.
for assistance in determining the amount of waste. per acre.and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:

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

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 7
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take up released nutrients.. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to
surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that
are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips
are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12'. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other
property and public right -of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface wasters,
drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site
by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the
application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
15. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into
the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to
areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage
or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and imple-
menting a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept
on site.

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

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 winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste 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 animal waste
during the crop season.
L
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23
Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Jerrell Brown Farm
Facility Number 31-372
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 10/31 /00 was made to review the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application_ The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at [phone]. 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.

Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Category 2:
❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist trust
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation.. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWO within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Dear Jerrell Brown:
In accordance ,with your application received on September 30, 1998, we are forwarding this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Jerrell Brown, authorizing the operation of the subject animal
waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit
AWG 100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to,
the management of animal waste from the Jerrell Brown Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal
capacity of no greater than 2448 Feeder and Finish and the application to land as specified in the
Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003. 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, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any increase in waste production greater than
the certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General
Permit or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS
143-215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
The facility's CAWMP meets all requirements in place at the time of certification. However, it
appears that the irrigation system on site may not adequately cover all acreage listed in the Waste
Utilization Plan. The owner should address this inconsistency as soon as possible.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-372
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, DRY3, SLUR1, 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

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN 9
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especiatk c!' pGO�n
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended racy arG �G
wet periods. TN P,
c�
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the zip m
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 6' .
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according tk
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow;. from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action. `
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance,of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
,. ,_;done by mowing,. spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should -be done -at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet. Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes —look for:
1. separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

• Lagoon surface —look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment —look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability —slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to,wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. 1f
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 ah appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the `
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps —check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequent )y enough so that you
are not com_&tely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system Mainteriance: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`-rieigh66`r's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is -needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2... Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the -incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
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.
G. Maintain a periodic•cheek on the lagoon liquid pH.- If the -pH falls -below -
7.0, add. agricultural iiri a at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume ntil 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.
f ,t

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.
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:
Date 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 [and 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
requiremerttt:Waste.app.lication 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..th_ e pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon lifter remains
intact. 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 [and 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 va[ue.
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.)
Lagooh 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.

facility will produce approximately 905.76 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.

WASTE UTILIZATION PIK
PAGE 5
.See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of
the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs.
This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure,
soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the
soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen
applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
5 months. In no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
y dr structure be within 1_7 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to erasure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report
for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:

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

WASTE UTILIZATION PLA PAGE 7
. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum' and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to
surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that
are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips
are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other
property and public right -of ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface wasters,
drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site
by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water
courses,'except when applied at agronomic rates and the
application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into
the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
one (1) foot mandatory freeboard. ;
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided.for these areas and.shall be fenced -as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to
areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage
or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and imple-
menting a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept
on site.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE -PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for- waste treatment with minis us-ii odor,
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary die to soil conditions, flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its`capacity, to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times.
�. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B)
before land application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 47.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 45.8 or before fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria) .
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is -
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inch per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on 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. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
----------------------------------------------------------
CI easing:
All tr-ees and brush shall be removed from the construction area
before any excavating or fill is started. Stumps will be removed
within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas
and all excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceeding one (1)
inch in diameter, shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1)
foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The
foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly before placement of
embankment material.
Cut—off Trench:
---------------
A cut --off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in
the plans.
Construction:
-------------
Construction of excavated and earthfill areas shall be performed to
the neat lines and grades as planned. Deviations from this will
require prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall not be placed
in standing water and reasonable compaction of the fills shall be
performed by the construction equipment or sheeps—foot roller during
placement. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using
the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall
include ten (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage,
when areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will need to
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and
compacted with a suitable material (ie—CE,SC,CH). Refer to the soils
investigation information in the plans for special considerations.
Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
Vegetation:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be
seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after
construction.

Date 16 - 9- W
Dear Sir:
Recently I received an AD-1026 form from the ASCS indicating that
you have requested a wetland determination on an area you want to
clear. Since most of the sails in this county have inclusions of
wetlands, it is necessary that a soil scientist visit the area
you want to clear to determine the presence or absence of these
wet inclusions. Generally, I can get a soil scientist within 2
weeks so depending on the number of requests ahead of yours, I
will try to have a determination for you within 4 weeks and
possibly sooner. `
In order to avoid delays, there are a few things that you can do
to speed up this process. Listed below are some suggestions:
1. If the area is wooded or overgrown with weeds and brush, cut
some trails throughout the -area so that the soil scientist can
walk through the area in several places and set flags of wetland
area. If the trails are not cut the soil scientist may not be
able to see the area completely thus either resulting in too much
area being classified as wetlands or a delay in the determination
until the trails are cut. Trails should not be pushed with
tracked equipment since this may require a permit from the US
Army Corp of Engineers. Manual labor or mowing is recommended.
2. Clearly mark the area where you want the determination.
Corners should be easily identifiable on the ground.
3. If you are requesting a non-agricultural exemption for road
construction or hog houses and lagoons, etc., send me a sketch of
exactly .what the cleared area will be used for. Dimensions and
other pertinent data should be included. This exemption is only
available for limited use and cannot be for more acreage than is
actually to be 'used for the exempted activity. Pasture planting
for irrigating effluent is not an exempted activity.
4. Contact this office when you have completed these
prerequisites so that a field visit can be scheduled.
Thank you for:your cooperation. in
completed. ..Your efforts will help
you and others'.
Sincerely,
M(aOA E.

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

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

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 qnd 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,.sprokiers should be located along .a transect perpendicular to the direction.

Dear Mr. Brown:
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 919/733-0026.

Dear Mr. Brown:
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 [phone].
Sincerely,
