The Division of Water Quality (Division) received your sludge survey information on December
19, 2007. With the survey results, you requested an extension of the sludge survey requirement
for the lagoon' at the Steve Smith Farm facility not to be required until 2009. Due to the amounts
of treatment volume available, the Division agrees that a sludge survey is not needed until 2069.
The results of the 2009 sludge survey are to be submitted by March 1, 2010.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at (919)

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

Tile Irrigation Application Factors for each field in this plan are spawn 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 following Lagoaal Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate ofthe number of acres rid for
sludge utilization for the indicaW 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 treatment and application of the effluent- At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agranomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting.
Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application ofsludge 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. Ifthis is not possible, care should be taker not to bad effluent application fields
with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface
water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels
may also be a concern.

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

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
L Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. 'There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate_ of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed.where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, MRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disldng 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).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
57635b Database Version 2-0 Date Printed: 1/28/03 Specification Page 1
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited'on or after October 1,1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal.
Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial
waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
576350 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: ll28/03 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 hind 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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --
576350 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 1/28/03 Specification Page 3
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker will be required -to mark the
maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions
require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for fiv,
(5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): P3, P4
Corn 1: CP, Mineral Soil, low -leachable
In the Coastal Plain, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit
Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations
should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when planting no -till.
Phosphorus anti poLdssiurn recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When
planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted
practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the
remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 30-40 days after emergence. The
total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the
recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples
can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely
management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production.
The following crop note applies to field(s): P1, P2
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 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 i' 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 2401b/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: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS310391
Steve Smith Farm -
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Duplin County
Dear Norman Smith:
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 AWGi00000. 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 January 30, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Norman
Smith, 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 AWS310391 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 Steve Smith Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 2160 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 anequivalent 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. ►

NOTE: Symbol * means user entered data.
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
manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be
applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the
total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.
Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being
utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be
used to balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the
application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

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 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 treatment and application of the effluent. At
clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the
priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting.
Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied.
Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not
be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields
with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface
water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels
may also be a concern.

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

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches
surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer
either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to
properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture,
historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless
there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the Iand 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- ---
576350 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed; 1/28/03 Specification Page 1
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a
method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies.
S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is -frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a
manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would
inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should
also be considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be
planted crops on soils with a high
loading rates on these soils should
applied in fall or winter for spring
potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply
with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which
waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine.farm shall
be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal.
Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after
October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial
waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
--------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------
576350 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 1/28/03 Specification Pace 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.
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, reauiuog 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

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): P3, P4
Corn 1: CP, Mineral Soil, low -leachable
In the Coastal Plain, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit.
Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations
should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 100/6 when planting no -till.
Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When
planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted
practice is to apply 20-30 lbs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the
remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 30-40 days after emergence. The
total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the
recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples
can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely
management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production.
The following crop note applies to field(s): P 1, P2
Bermudagrass Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, Moderately Well Drained.
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs 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 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 fast 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.

In the Coastal Plain, hybrid bermudagrass sprigs can be planted Mar. 1 to Mar. 31. Cover sprigs I" to 3"
deep (1.5" optimal). Sprigs should be planted quickly after digging and not allowed to dry in sun and wind.
For Coastal and Tifton 78 plant at least 10 bu/ac in 3' rows, spaced 2' to 3' in the row. Generally a rate of
30 bu/ac is satisfactory to produce full groundcc,.•er in ore 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 V 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.
The following crop note applies to field(s): P 1, P2
Small Grain: CP, Mineral Soil, medium leachable
In the Coastal Plain, oats and barley should be planted from October 15-October 30; and rye from October
15-November 20. For barley, plant 22 seed/drill row foot and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each
week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate
modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate
by at least 10% when planting no -till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and rye at 1-1 1 /2
bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the
NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at
planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time. The
remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March.

modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate
by at least 10% when planting a o—till. Oats should be planted at 2 bushels/acre and rye at 1-I 1/2
bushels/acre. Plant all these small grains at 1-1 1/2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the
NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding
variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at
planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time. The
remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March.
The following crop note applies to field(s): P3, P4
Wheat: Coastal Plain, Mineral Soil, low -leachable
In the Coastal Plain, wheat should be planted from October 20-November 25. Plant 22 seed/drill row foot
at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum
time. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small
Grain Production Guide". Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till.
Adequate depth control when planting the wheat is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green
book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics
needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash
recommended by a soil test can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the
months of February -March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be analyzed
during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of diseases,
insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production -
The following crop note applies to field(s): P3, P4
Double -Crop Soybeans, Coastal Plain: Mineral Soil, low -leachable
Double -crop soybeans should be planted as early in June as possible with planting completed by July 4th.
When no -tilling soybeans in small grain straw, it is essential to manage the straw to achieve adequate plant
populations- Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to
select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4
seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10
seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth
should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential- Phosphorus and potash recommended for the
soybeans can be applied to the wheat in the Fall. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally
grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at
planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to
monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential
for profitable double crop soybean production.

This is to notify Mr. Norman Smith, who holds Certificate of Coverage AWS310391
under Swine Waste General Permit AWG100000 issued pursuant to North Carolina General
Statute 143-215.1, of deficiencies on the Steve Smith Farm.
On September 19, 2000, Mr. Stonewall Mathis of the Wilmington Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality inspected your animal operation and the animal waste management
system serving this operation. During the inspection, Mr. Mathis observed the following:
Overapplication of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) has occurred on the 1999-
2000 Bermuda overseed crop. The Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
allows up to 50 lbs PAN/acre for the referenced crop. Applications of 58.47 lbs
PAN/acre and 58.81 lbs PAN/acre have occurred on Field I Pull 2 and Field 2
Pull 7, respectively, on the referenced crop. These are violations of Part II.
Operation and Maintenance Requirements, Section 4 of the General Permit which
requires that in no case shall land application rates exceed the Plant Available
Nitrogen rate for the receiving crop or result in runoff during any given
application.
A protective vegetative cover needs to be established on bare areas on the back
side of the lagoon in accordance with Part II(10) of the General Permit.

Dear Steve Smith:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary engineering review of the subject application. Additional
information is required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by April 9, 1999:
Your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) lists the yield for bermuda grass hay on tract 5098, field 1 as 5.0 tons
per acre. This is higher than currently recommended. Please contact your technical specialist to revise the
WUP or provide justification that supports the increased yield as shown in the current WUP. Please note
that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist.
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical
specialist. Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All
information should be signed, sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information
requested by this letter must be submitted on or before April 9, 1999 or the Division will return your application as
incomplete in accordance with 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.

Dear Mr. Smith:
On March 18, 1999, Mr. Brian Wrenn from the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) of
the Division of Water Quality inspected your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this
operation. It was observed that the lagoon has insufficient freeboard.
USDA-NRCS guidelines require a minimum of one foot and seven inches of freeboard.
This is based on the amount of storage space needed to contain a 25-year, 24 hour design storm
event without a discharge. The level of your waste lagoon must be lowered and maintained and
proper records should be kept in accordance with the NRCS guidelines and the state 2H .0200
rules governing animal waste management systems. In addition, the nitrogen balances should be
calculated using the pounds per acre (lbs/ac) loading rate on the IRR-2 forms. An irrigation map
should be drawn up to indicate the spray pulls in each field. 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.
Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater
to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment, Health and

Dear Mr. Smith:
On March 18, 1999, Mr. Brian Wrenn from the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) of
the Division of Water Quality inspected your animal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this
operation. It was observed that the lagoon has insufficient freeboard.
USDA-NRCS guidelines require a minimum of one foot and seven inches of freeboard.
This is based on the amount of storage space needed to contain a 25-year, 24 hour design storm
event without a discharge. The level of your waste lagoon must be lowered and maintained and
proper records should be kept in accordance with the NRCS guidelines and the state 2H .0200
rules governing animal waste management systems. In addition, the nitrogen balances should be
calculated using the pounds per acre (lbslac) loading rate on the IRR-2 forms. An irrigation map
should be drawn up to indicate the spray pulls in each field. 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.
Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater
to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per
violation.

NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
Grower(s): Norman Smith
Farm Name: Norman & Steve Smith
County: Duplin
Farm Type: Feed -Fin
Fame Capacity: 2160
Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon
Storage Period:. . 180 days
Application Method: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4_ Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.

--indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or winter annuals follow summer
annuals.
`A negative number reflects the total Ibs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere
Page: 3
MAY-4-99 TUE 10:15 AM BROWN S FAX NO, 9102961675 F, 4
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or out to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding
required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas
not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields
listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
Page: 4
MAY-.4-99 TUE 10:15 AM BROWN S FAX NO. 9102961675 F. 5
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.36 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
in sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3888.00
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 12.96 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 31.10 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirement
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts -

This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation_ The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.

MAY-4-99 TUE 10:16 AM BROWN S FAX K0, 9102961675 P. 6
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipmen
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.
Additional Comments:
Plan revised to reflect 75% rule for wetted acres determination.
There is enough acres so that the landowner doesnt have to overseed
his coastal unless he wants to or in case of winter pumOno.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-391
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
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.

OPERATION & tiLkLVTEvkNTCE PLA- i
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such-,�.s w•inten rime for bermuda;rass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in Lhe summertime. This means
that at the first sins 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 rly fail the Iagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every efzort 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:
l�faintenance of a vegetztive cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudaarass are the most cor-mmon vegetative
covers. The ve_etation 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 i[ is r,at pracdcal to obtain
a soils test each vear, the lagoon embankm,: nt ar:d sur-,ounding 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 ere 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.
Nfaintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and of ter major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
check.-d should include, as a minimum, the following:
waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Rio_ es ---loot: for:
1. separation of joMICs
?. c l-c!<s or breaks
3. acc'.:mulation of salts Or minerals
T. overall condition of pipes
Lagoon surface ---look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
1 floating or lodged debris
Embanks-nent --- look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
?. side slope stability ---slumps or bulges
3. wet or damn areas on the back slope
erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
�. rodent darnage
Lamer 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, bafrles 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 tail an appropriate expert familiar with design 'and
consL-reaction of waste lagoons. You may razed 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 Iagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
under--a.-Icing with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an approoriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumos--- check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps - -
?. i��:ga:ion pumps
Check- for le2-k3, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusuzlly loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumoing syst-ms should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not cornpletely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system mainrenance at a time when your Iagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major reps=-rs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching. repairing , or borowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory or spare
par'S or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to cax-Ty all surface
drainage waters (such as-rainfalI runoff, roof drainage, gutter, outlets,
and par::ing lot ruriofr� away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from vour lagoon is that which comes from vour fleshing
(washing) sysiern pipes and the rainfall that hits the Iagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1. adequate vegetation
?. 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 ^-. to b hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise w-ith 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 u-ito the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1. 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 Iagoon should have a fexible pipe extender, on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon i dung initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in t '.e spiing to nnaxirnize
bacter=z 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 seceding should occour at Ieast two wee`s p.:or to the
addition of wastewater.
5. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultural lime at the ate of I 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, a -rid excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especialIy during the
season.
Loadiu-:
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 dav, also work well.
hlana,gement.
Practice water conservation ---minimize buiidinc, water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spiIIage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Nfaintain 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). .
Star 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 Lhunderstorm season. Similarly,
irZgate 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 tine permanent storage
level unless you are rernoving sludge.
Locate float pump intake-s approximately 18 inchles underneath the liquid
sur-:ace 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 ;row on lagoon dart or embank -meat.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
1i animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implemennng a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal.
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:
proper Iagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Nfix the sludge and Iagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper par 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 pats of lagoon by itIription onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dtaagLmen 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 forageiand; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analvzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The Sludge will contain difxerent
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutr-lents as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement_ Waste application rues will be discussed in de �i1 in Chapte. 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. It 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. Not-- 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, overopping, and breach of the
darn. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring stricture safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
CP
Modification of the Iagoon structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
Iagoon 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 Iagoon_
Liner integrity ---protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below ;roundwater
table.
NOTE: If lagoon water is alIo,4ed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
;fillies to fornn in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a Iarge discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.
SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS
----------------------------------------------------------
Clearing:
All trees and brush shall be removed from the construction area
before any excavating or fill is started. Stumps will be removed
within the area of the foundation of the embankment and fill areas
and all excavated areas. All stumps and roots exceeding one (1)
inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1)
foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The
foundation area shall, be loosened thoroughly before placement of
embankment material.
Cut-off Trench:
---------------
A cut-off trench (when specified) shall be installed as shown in
the plans.
Construction:
-------------
Construction of excavated and 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

INSTRUCTIONS
All dams built with technical assistance from the Soil Conservation Service
must have a.Eiazard classification assigned.by the person -responsible -for
approving the design: Most farm ponds, exdept In borderI.ine cases, can"
be classified after.a complete field investigation without -assuming failure
and ma king breach studies.' This' data sheet is to be used for recording
the information obtained .through field studies and for documenting the
hazard classification.' Where there -is a possibility -for Ios's'of life or -
major property damnage-from a dam failure,'an-approved breach routing
procedure is to be used. {Consult .with .the area engiriepr.)
Hazard classifications of -dams are"made by`evaluating the possibility
for 'loss of life and the extent of damage that would result if the dam
should suddenly .breach --that .is -.-a. section of. the dam be- suddenly -and
completely washed out. It is to be assumed that a wall of water will be
released equal to "the height of"the dam. This flood wave will be reduced
in height as 'it moves down the flood plain: -The wave height (depth of - .-
flooding) should be evaluated for a sufficient distance downstream until
the estimated flood level will not cause significant damage to improvements,
such as homes, buildings, -roads, utilities, reservoirs, etc. The breach
flood level will be reduced depending on the valley storage, slope, and
openess of the flood plain; however, in .a narrow steep valley slopes
steeper than 10Q should be given special consideration. One method of
evaluation is to compare available valley storage (under flood conditions)
to impoundment storage (figured to the top of the dam) for each reach
evaluated with a judgment -estimate made of the flood wave height at all
critical points downstream. -
Should there be any Questions about the hazard classification for }a dam,
..�
the area engineer should be*consulted before making design coltm?nts.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization' plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner.
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
Page: 1
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. if you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR ( gallons, ft3, tons, etc.):
2160 animals X 985.50 gal/animal/year =
2,128,680 gallons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN PRODUCED PER YEAR (Ibs):
2160 animals X 2.30 lbs/animal/year
4,968.00 Ibs
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.

Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or winter annuals follow summer
annuals.
'A negative number reflects the total Ibs of additional nitrogen needed to achieve yields on
acreage listed in chart. A positive number means additional acreage is required to utilize the
nitrogen produced by the farm.
NOTE:
This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient -
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. -
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed
through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they
reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a
height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care
should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the seasorf (i.e.
Page: 3
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will defnately interfere
with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen
being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is
the normal situation, .you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

Acres shown in the preceding table are considered to be the usable acres excluding
required buffers, filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas
not -receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the fields
listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste.
Page: 4
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 0.36 pounds of plant available nitrogen per animal per year in the
sludge based on the application method listed earlier.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3888.00
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 12.96 acres of land. If you apply
the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 31.10 acres of land.
Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements
could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and
applications.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil .
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

*This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the
v/aste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of
freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsiability of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

MRCS WASTE UTILIZATION
PLAN SPECIFICATIONS
I. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runof drib, maiunad{ 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 omens or has a notarized agreement for use
of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly
dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of a notarized agreement with a Iandowner who iswithin 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 operaiion, increase in the
number of animals, method of utilization, or available Iand.
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 managenient. unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. Actual vields inav he used in licit of realistic yield tables at the
discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that
is eroding at more than 5 tons but less than 10 tons per acres per eeur priwidins' grass titter strips are installed where
runoff leaves the field (See FOTG Standard 393-Filter Strips)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when
there is danger of drift from the irrigation field.
fi. When ar. mal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incoi porated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, die wasie may be broadcast provided the
application does not occure during a season prone to flooding. (.Sc:: "witeother and Climate in Nor -di Carolina" for
guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occure off -site
or to surface waters and in a method which does not caust drift fr0111 dtC sirL during, application. No ponding should
occur in order to control odor and flies.
8, Auunal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the sutyace is Dozen.
9. Animal waste should be applied on actively growing crops in such a nianitcr that the crop is not covered with waste
to depth that would prohibit growth. The potential for salt dania-ue tram attilttal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted Craps nil settle with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a tiiinimumn and a suitable winter cover crop
planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied morQ dizni 30 days pricer to planting of a crop or
forages breaking dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the Collowino: The outer perimeter of
the land area onto which waste is applied from a latroon that is a compunet of a sxvine 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

12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those ot«ted by landowner.
14: Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other proper• and public tight-ofways.
I5. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or mvetlands by a discharge or by over -
spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided it has been approved as a land
applications site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste applied on grassed warenvays shall be at agronomic rates
and in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, shower;, cuilers. sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all di.turbzd areas (lagoon embankrneat_s,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect flit vep-etatiun. Vegetation such as trees,
shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where con -,idertd appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structur_s should he inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure
plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal dischargt, 1)(11ILM011 and e1•)s1011.
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 ktpt (In sits,
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetalbles 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 permanenet markers shall be installed to mark the toll and b0M)Itt elevations of the temporary storage
(pmunping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be ntanueed to rnaintain the liquid level between
the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum stoi-a c voILMIL! tin- waste storage ponds.
22. Soil tests shall be made every year, and a liquid waste analysis shall be taken within 60 days of application
consistent with waste utilization plan. Poultry liner shall be tested prier ui application. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for five years.
Dead animals will be disposed of in a mariner that tncc:ts NC rcgulcrtions.
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
desion will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For exarnple, 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 s.houid 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 AND MAINTENANCE PLAN!
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions, flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center pivot,, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
I. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B)
before land application. -
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion "54.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out When
the fluid level reaches elevation ✓52.2 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
❑utlets.
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.

Dear Mr. Smith:
On September 16, 1998, 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 a small grain overseed was planted in the bermuda fields in the `97-'98 growing
season, but a small grain overseed is not listed in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP) .
The CAWMP should be revised to include the overseed in the bermuda fields, or no
overseed should be planted to reflect the current CAWMP. 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.
Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater
to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per
violation.

Dear Mr. Smith:
This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently
modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management
(DEM), Water Quality Section.
On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water
quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for
animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters
of the state. The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain
minimum criteria are met (15A NCAC 2H .0217) By submitting this registration you have
met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted.
We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds
listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993
and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form (copy enclosed) to DEM by
December 31, 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must
obtain sinned 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.
