Dear Janet P. Sterling:
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your sludge survey information on June 15,
2009, With your results, Agriment Services, Inc requested an extension of the sludge survey
requirement for the lagoon at Vida Loco facility. Due to perceived unreliability of the sludge
survey result sent with your request, DWQ feels that an extension is not appropriate at this time.
You may request sludge survey extension for the lagoon with survey results obtained before the
end of this year for DWQ to reconsider this decision.
Therefore, the next sludge survey for the lagoon at Vida Loco facility should be perfbrmed
before December 31, 2009. Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any
questions, please call me at (919) 715-6937.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution7'
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 limi'ting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strondly 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 Infiftration rates, leaching pcytentials, 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 OEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop produdon 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 an 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 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, helshe 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 utilizaUon, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for reallsflc crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions. and level
of management unless there are regulaflons 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 wvVeather 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 offs1te 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.

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 12/l/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 I. -
The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of Information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405-3845, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you
have any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you
are unable to provide Dean Hunkele with the Information you are automatically
required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2
below, w Ithl n 180 d ays of receipt of th is letter.

Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to 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 f il e at th e I ocal S oil & W ater C onservation District Offl ce. 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.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. '1he plant nutrients in the vinimal 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 Ihnitin
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 utilintion plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
envirommentally 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
canutilize. Soil types are important as they have different infifftation rates, leaching
potenfals, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally
waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With
special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result 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
�L_�&g 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 shoudd 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 2R 0217 adopted by the Environmental Management C omrr�ission.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runof� drift, mamn de
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches suffice 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 himiher 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 Udlimtion
Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical 6ta, climatic conditions,
and level of mannement., unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. I
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 iusalled. where runoff leaves the field.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disidag 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 offshe 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.

System Calibration Z
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operat' :V
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application r-2 .7,
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particu")
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued us4u
nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase tu
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the
design will after 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 nozzie. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pens, 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 applicat ' 'ion. 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 & AlAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to rnanage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This mean
that at the first -signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation a rding- to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as -long as the weather and w=
utilization plan will aliow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capaci ty before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing ex=s 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 arnount of fertili= 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 I=t 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 inspecdons of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly.apd after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a munmum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes —look foi-
L separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes
Lagoon surface —look for:
I . undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embanionent—look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or 'jug" holes
0
2. side slope smbility—slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a =ult 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 darn.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam., If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of wastp- lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary -fix if there is a th=t
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:
I . 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
replacemenL
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and op=ted,firquently enough so that yoll
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your -pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly ftffl lagoon is not,the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is Rill,
your neighbor's lagoon is AW 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:
I . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
ld=tificd Problems should be czn=md promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If twJinical 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 rainf� amount
(You must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). KnDwing this should heir in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises exc=ively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or them may be seepage into the
lagoori from the surrounding land.

Lagoon Operation
ftartnp:
1. Immediately aft= construction establish a complete sod cover on ba= sQU
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. FM new lagoon design M=tment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, Mking cam 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
0
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining'.
4.- Whm possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maxij�
bacterial establishmezit (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
worldng swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full.lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour- at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below
7.0, add agricultaral lime at the rate of I pound peT 1000 cubic feet of
lagoon liquid volume until the pH rl= above 7.0. Optimum lagoon Urraid
pH is between 7.5 and 8.0.
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and ex=sive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recammended
if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.

Maintain lagoon liquid level between the pernianent storage level and

Place visible mark= or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid, lever (Figure 2-1).
Start irriga4g at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moistitre so that -temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunder=rrn season. Shniluly,
irrigam in the late summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer d= I foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embanlanent.
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-stenrrned forage orvegetation,
molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign matexials into the IVo=.
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 an lagoon dam or embankment
Remove - siudge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity, is
full or before it M 50 percent of the pe=nanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be tmminated, the owner is responsible for -
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a-

pollutant discharge.
Sludge Memoval:
Rate. of lagoon sludge b uild up can be reduced by:
proper lagoon sinng,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed wasm solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed w=age and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal. techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chappet-agitator impeller
pump through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby crqpland�
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 fomgeland; and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irTigation onto nearby- cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside laiagoon to receive the sludge so that licuids can dmin back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or foraggeland; and soil incorpomm.
Regardless of the meth�od, 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- ber
lirni�ed by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement- Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When =rnoving sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure diat the lagoon liner remains
intacL If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the acti'viry immediately and not resume until you are mire that the sludge can be
rerrioved without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed ftm the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and.heavy metal content
than liquid. Bec:ause of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion- Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should- be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wa=, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge wil I increase the amount of odor at the waste application site -
Extra prccatition should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could inr-= e the concern of neighbors.
Pamible Cames of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures -result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of bilums include leakage through the battom or sides, ovmtopping, and breach of the
darn. Amuming proper design and cowtruction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring === safety. lt=s which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure —an example is the placement of a. pip, -
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expart in
lagoon design before pW:ing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels —high levels.are- 2. safety tisk-
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon -
Liner integrity —protect from inler pipe scouring, damage during sludge

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor
control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached may vary due to soil conditions,flushing operations, and
the amount of fresh water added to the system.
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. methods of application include solid set,
center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent runoff from the field or damage
to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
1. it is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment 8)
before land application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 44.2 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 42.2 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
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
----------------------------------------------------------
clearing:
All trees and brUBh 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
reVire prior approval of the SCS. Earthfill shall not be placed
in standing water and reasonable compaction of the fills shall be
performed by the construction equipment or sheeps-foot roller during
placement. The embankment of the lagoon shall be installed using
the more impervious materials. Construction of fill heights shall
include ten (10) percent for settlement. To protect against seepage,
when areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will need to
be excavated a minimum of one (1) foot below grade and backfilled and
compacted with a suitable material (ie-CL,SC,CH). Refer to the soils
investigation information in the plans for special considerations.
Precautions should be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimentation.
Vegetation:
-----------
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be
seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after
construction.

(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 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 OEM 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 1 5A NCAC
21-1.0217 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 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 then 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 panding 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 an 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 form 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 appl led 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 courses 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.

(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, leaksand 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 ;evels. 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.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-429
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 sludgestresiduals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI, IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2,
SLD 1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine, inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
DWQ staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571.
