The following Lagoon Sludge Nitrogen Utilization table provides an estimate of the number of ams needed for sludge utilization
7or the indicated accumulation period. These estimates are based on average nitrogen conceritmtions for each source, the number of
drumals 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 cle out, this
material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronoraic rates. inmost cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but
other nutrients including phosphorous� copper and zinc can also be timiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very ligh,
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 usch or sludge
application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of �;per and zinc
so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, pho horous is a
concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern- i

The Available Waste Storage Capacity table provides an estiniate of the number ofdays of storage capacity avai]Ablc at
the end of each month of the plan. Available storaRe capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days Minus
the number of days of net storage volume accumulatedL The start date is a value entered by the user and is definea as the
date prior to applying nutrients to the fir-st crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding ponj is
equal to zero. I
Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and Im than or equal to the design storage cadacitv of
the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the pl;A caiis
for the applicationof nutrients that haVe not accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated
yet t
volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indictites
that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary st age
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 operadoon
or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is i.
prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either o Ons
or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply thi
waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of thd
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 facillity 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, receivin'g
crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for
res I istic crop yi elds based upon soil type, availa ble moistu re, histori ca I da ta I
climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations th6t
restrict the rate of applications for otber nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per yrar.
Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per yearlbut
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 Stanjard
393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste appli�ation
Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land f
application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will lie soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to
conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provide� the
application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather iind
Climate in North Carolina" for guidance).
i.
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate �uch
that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method whicli does
not ca use d ri ft from th e si te du ring application. No ponding sho uld occu r i n 0' rder
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,i.
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 pla hted
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 at;'y
residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine we'ste
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. I
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other tha I n
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, orf
wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be appliedl 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
g rassed wa terways that discha rge d i rectly i n to water cou rses, and on other 11
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 distu r�ecl
areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, �s
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and oiher
woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagdon
areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should b6'
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 onla
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenan6,ce
checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crolps
for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops folr
direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no furthC-r
applications of animal waste during the crop season. I
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom eleva ti0i ns 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 sto�age
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 a plied. Nitrogen shall be the
p t
rate -determining nutrien4 unless other restrictions require waste to be applied
based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitroge'p
based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and altern6tive
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

Division of Water Quality
May 1, 2003
Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS310435
Bobby Howard Farm
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Duplin County
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division).to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General
Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period : of this extension the Division will be working with
all.interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on April 1, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of
Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Bobby
Howard, 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 AWS310435 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 Bobby Howard Farm, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 1760 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in
the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC, you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.

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.
Se ' veral f;ctors 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

I I
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate 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.)
I
1760 hogp x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 3344 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
1760 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 4048 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded
in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing,
hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed
when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle
should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four
inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed
for hay or silage, 6-are should be exercised not to let small
grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too
high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced
yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than
cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as
is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small
grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or
silage two to three times during the season, depending on.
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late
September or early October. Drilling is recommended over
broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a
height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
This number must be less than or equal to 0 in order to fully
utilize the animal waste N produced.
Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 6S1.2 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3256
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 10.8533333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 12S pounds,of nitrogen per acre, you will need 26.048 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 255k depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method -of land application for this plarij
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
Page: 6

amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil
assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over
applied. in many situations, the application amount shown cannot
be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables I and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of 'nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by
runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or
direct discharge during operation or land application. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the
producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate
land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does
not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall
provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons
per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year
providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves
the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip)
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is
danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application
does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolinw, for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops -in such
a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.
Page., 9

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
take up released nutrients. waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall
comply with the following: The cuter 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 SO feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways, 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.
Page: 10

WASTE UTILIZATION PLJW
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human.consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste'during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested 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 soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North
Carolina regulations.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: BOBBY HOWARD
Location: PO BOX 205
KENANSVILLE NC 28349
Telephone: [phone]
Type Operationt Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 1760.00 hogs
(Design Capacity)
STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon
APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to,reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the 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

I � 11 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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
I
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. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste. to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste, analysiL; content and crop type.
Lime mus� be applied to maintain pH in the optimu'm 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.)
1 1760 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 3344 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN), PRODUCED PER YEAR
1760 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 4048 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and'surface application.

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

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization'plan must contain provisions for p6riodic 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,produ'ction facility will produce
approximately G51.2 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year'in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3256
pounds of PAN to utilize, Assumin4 you apply this PAN to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 30.0 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 10.8533333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 26.048 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land'needed. Actual requirements could var� by 2516 depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
metl�ods.
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, so ' il 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 Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
Page: 6

amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
The following table 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

be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil
conditions.
Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
6.00 months. In no,instance should the volume of the waste be stored
in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one
foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm.
It is ' the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to
ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the
correct rates to the acres shown in Tables I and 2. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may
make this plan invalid.

there is d change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict
the rate of application for other nutrients.'
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than S tons
per acre per year. waste may be applied to land that is eroding
at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 t ' cns 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.
C
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled
cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or
grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application --
does not occur during a season prone to,flooding. (See "Weather
and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to
surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from
the site during application. No ponding should occur in order
to control odor or flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such
a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that
would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal
waste should also be considered.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to
take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more
than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall
comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area
onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of
a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential
property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other
than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than
swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995),
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet -to perennial waters.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
. wells. I
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of'
dwelling� other than those owned by the landown4r.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property
and public right-of-ways.
IS. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided
they have been approved as a land application site by a
."technical specialist". Animal waste�shall not be applied on
grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses,
and on other grassed waterways,,waste shall be applied at
agronomic rates in -a manner that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
1G. 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.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on
site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables
and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if
animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it
should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and
bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of
all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to
maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will
be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
storage ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested 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 soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years..

Dear Mr. Howard:
On August 31,2000, 1 Inspected your animal operation and the animaiwaste management system
serving this operation. During this visit, several Items listed belowwere noted requiring Immediate attention
andclarification. These involve deficiencies to the certified animal waste management plan that this facility
operates under as a deemed permitted facility pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0217 and North Carolina G.S,
143.215.1.
Cover Crop Needs Improvement:
During the Inspection [twas observed that your bermuda and fescue covercrops need improvement
throughout the majority of all your spray fields. If a majority of your annual cover crop fails or has
Inadequate coverage, then you must Immediately Contact a technical speciallst.for guidance as to your
available options including re-plantlng. If your crop has areas of poor coverage, then waste application
should be minimized in these areas. It Is recommended that a separate soil sample ffe taken from this area
indicating a problem area onthe paperwork fora morethorough soil analysisto be completed to find possible
source of a problem. Fields lacking a cover crop for whatever reason should not have waste applied to them
until a crop Is established.

For all crops, especially grassed pastures or hay fields, soil pH must be maintained for the proper
health of the crop and uptake of nutrients from application. Lime must be applied according to the rate
Indicated on your annual soil analysis when the amount Is equal to or greater than 1.0 ton/aGre. In no
Instance, should more than 2.0 tons/acre be applied during any year. It takes approximately 4-6 months for
lime to work throughout the root zone; thus lime should be applied In late summer or early fall for it to be
available to the summer crop next year.
Grassed fields must be harvested to avoid disease, control weed, growth, and remove applied
nutrients. Bermuda fields should be cut for hay at a height of 16-20 inches and soil pH maintained at 6-6.5.
Fescue fields should be cut for hay In April and again In October.
Pastures may need to be cut for hay periodically If grazing herd cannot keep up with growth or
mowed periodically for control of weeds. Herbicide may need to be applied periodically for control of
broadleaf weeds or volunteer grasses, Grassed operation has been previously cited for over -application or
the amount of over -application exceeds the recommended PAN by 20%.
Soils Analysis:
It was also observed during the Inspection that there wa$ no current soils analysis for the year. A
dated soil sample report for each spray field In the waste utilization plan Is required once per calendar year
(annually). Fields greater than 10 acres should be broken up Into smaller fields for sampl Ing purposes to
obtain the most useful information. It is highly recommended that samples for pastures and hay fields be
taken during the summer to obtain a report in a timely manner. Grower Is cautioned against waiting past
November I st because report may not be dated and returned by the end of the year. It is recommended that
a separate soil sample be taken from areas where cover crops are sir'U"g'gIIng to be maintained; indicate this
Is from a problem area on the paperwork for a more thorough so! I analysis to be completed to find possible
source of a problem. These samples are at no cost to the grower other than shipping.
I..
To correct these deficiencies, please submit a Plan of Action.to the Wilmington Regional Office
of the Division of Water Quality that describes the actions to be taken to com, ply with your certified
animal waste management plan. The Plan of Action should Include the,following:
> A list of actions to be taken In correcting each noted deficiency.
> A list of any and all modifications needed to ensure there are no future deficiencies. Include a
timetable for completion of those modifications.
The proposed written Plan of Action must be received by this office within fifteen (15) working
days of the receipt of this notice. Upon approval and Implementation of the plan, you must notify this
office when the corrective actions are complete. Contact your Service Company, county Soil & Water
district office, or county extension office for any assistance they -may be able to provide.

Dear Mr. Howard:
On June 3, 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 fescue is planted in a spray field designated by the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP) for bermuda with a small grain overseed. A previous Notice of Deficiency was issued
on October 16, 1998,,based on an October 8, 1998 inspection by DWQ staff. At this time, it was
observed that there were erosion cuts on the inner and outer dike walls of the lagoon.
Failure to follow your plan is a violation of your Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan, and subsequent violations may result in a Notice of Violation and include a civil penalty.
The Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) should be amended to accommodate all the crops to be planted
in the spray fields, or the appropriate crops should be planted to comply with the present WUP.
An interim plan may be implemented to provide a summer cover crop to utilize the waste produced
by the operation until the additional spray fields are completed. In addition, the erosion areas on
inner and outer dike walls of the lagoon should be filled with a suitable clay material, compacted
and revegetated 'With an appropriate cover. All bare areas on the lagoon dike walls should be re-
seeded. Topsoil or a mulch material should be used to dress the bare areas and to improve growth.
Grazing should be added to the WUP. 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.

Dear Mr. Howard:
Secretary
On October 8, 1997 Staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality,
inspected your ardmal operation and the lagoon(s) serving this operation. It was observed that s6me erosion
of the clay liner has occurred on the lagoon. Large cuts were observed in various sections of the inner and
outer dike walls of the lagoon. It is our concern that some of these gullies may become deep enough to cut
through the liner material and sacrifice the integrity of the structure.
As discussed at the time of the inspection, the cuts should be filled with a suitable clay material,
compacted and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover. In addition, the hole on the outer wall of the
lagoon should be filled with a suitable clay material, compacted and reseeded with an appropriate vegetative
cover. Bare areas on the walls of the lagoon should be reseeded with an appropriate vegetative cover, and
the cattle fence should be moved off of the lagoon wall. 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 DOtify 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.

FOR GASKET PIPE
Installation
Excavation, Laying, Testing, and Back -

bythe Enginebrin charge of thoproject.
Reference may also be made to Ameri-
can Society for Test(ng and Materials
Standarcl, ASTM D-2774 'Recommended
Practice (or Underground Installation of
Thermoplastic Pressure Piping."
Excavation
1. The trench bottom shall be stable,
continuous, relatively smooth, and free
of rocks or other objects detrimental to
the pipe. It shall provide continuous
support I or th a pi Pe, a nd bell I ho�les s hall
be provided for the bell and splgot Jol ints,
valves, and other system components
t he I m Ig ht a ct as a I ulcru m. Whe n made
through a rock cut, at least 4" of com-
pacled satisfactory bedding material
shall be provided.
2� The trench depth shall place the pipe-
line at least 6" below the lowest recorded
frost depth, and shall place the pipeline
depth at least 30" below grade.
3� The trench w�dth at the top of the pipe
shall be as narrow as practical to allow
adequ ate room I or Jai ning the pi pe a nd
to allow proper compaction of the sidefill.
Minimum trench width Is normally con-
sidered 12" plus the pipe O�D.
4. Pipelines shall be cased, bridged, or
otherwise protected at locations where
they will be subject to heavy surface
loads du& to shallow burial, Cistrib shall
also be used In spanning creeks and
gullies, extending 8 ft on either side of
the creek or gully.
Jointing
1. The pipe shall be jointed In the trench
or above g round, In accords nce wl th the
Jointing Instructions,
2. It Is Important that the gasket be clean
and properly seated, the spigot and well
I ubricated, and the bell and spigot ends
aligned correctly In both planes.
3. 11 Jointing Is done above ground, care
should be taken when lowering pipe Into
the tribinch tha(the depth of theloint entry
remalne correct. Check that the depth
of a ntry mark o6 the spigot ends Is flush
with the face of the bell. Jointing of 6"
and large pipe Is usually done In tHe trench.
4. AT NO TIME should a back -hoe or
similar device W used to assemble pipe.
Thrust Blocking
As with other push -fit rubber gasketed
joints, the pipe will not take end thrust
without restraints. Thrust blocks are
usually required at dead ends and
whWever the line changes direction of
30 degrees at more.
1. Thrust blocks shall be placed so that
the bearing surface Is In direct fine with
the major force created by the pipe or
fitting. Concrete having a compressive
strength of 2000 psi Is the recommended
blocking material, and may be poured
between the simplest of forms and the
undisturbed earth bearing surfaces.
2, Thrust blocking size may be calculated
as follows:
a) Multiply the pressure level desired
I or test Ing by th e value shown I in t he
table for thrust on fittings:

c) Divide the total thrust on the fitting
(step a) by the bearing strength of
the soil (stop b). The result Is the
square feet of area needed on the
face of the thrust block
d) Thrust blocks should haunch the
pipe or Fitting, not encase It.
Backfilling
1. Place select backfill and compact
under the hevnch, along the sides of,
and over the top of the pipe to a com-
pacted depth of at least 6". This backilli
shall be solls that allow good compaction
and placed I n 6" 1 ayers, wel I compacted,
it shall be free of rocks. frozen clods, or
other hard objects.
2. The I Inal backf III may then be made in
the usuaf manner, but care should be
taken not to dump large rocks or heavy
objects on the Initial backf ill and pipeline.
3. If the Joints and fittings must be left
exposed while under test, bacli to
wi t h in one I oot of each side of th a lot n t
or fitting to prevent deflection of the
pipe while under test pressures.
Testing
1. ALLAIRINTHEPIPELINESHALLBE
BLED OFF CAREFULLY WHILE FILLING
THE LINE WITH WATER FOR TESTING.
Entrapped air in the line can cause ex-
cesslve test pressures, and create un-
necessary problems. Air shall be bled
off at the high spots in the line. Air
removal may also be accomplished by
pushing a foam plug through the line by
Incoming water pressure.
2. Test pro ssu res m ay be 11/1 ti mes I h a
designed operating pressure of the
pipeline, but shall not exceed the maxi-
mum pressure rating of the pipe.
3. After.pressure test and acceptance
of testing, the uncovered joints and fit-
tings shall be infitially backfilled with
well compacted soil, and then covered
with final backfill.
4. Hydraulic pressure testing of the
pipellne shall be carried out initially at
Intervals not exceeding 500 yards and
thereafter at Intervals not exceeding
1,000 yards,
Radius Bends
Gradual change of direction may be
achieved by deflecting or cockling RIEBER
Joints a maximum of 3 degrees without
a4ecting the hydraulic seat of the Joint.

Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
c. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
Runoff from waste application field -actions include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that cause the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred:
Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure siphon occurs.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed
to flowing I-eaks-possible action:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch from the embankment to catch all
seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon
bottom as soon as possible.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially
important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and
wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winterlearly 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 spare available in the lagoon for future wet
periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following: -
Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to. obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, ch i combination of
opping,- or a
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years thait weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled'by'spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.'
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly.a9d after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes ---look for:
1. sgparation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes

r-
Lagoon surface --- look for:
I . undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment ---look for:
I . settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability ---slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes- serious darnage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has
any of these features, you. should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps --- check for proper operation of:
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,
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are'not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your� lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repa�r� be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is fuR,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also.... You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare.
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storage structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your -flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1, adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height

Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into the
lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
I Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before
waste loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes.
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the
end of the pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial
filling or another means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of
the lining.
4. When possible, begin loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize
bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon
liquid volume. This seeding should occour at least two weeks prior to the
addition of wastewater,
6.-- Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid PH. If the pH falls below
7.0,,add dgricultural time at the rate 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, and excessive odor signals inadequate
biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended
if these conditions occur for.prolonged periods, especially during the warm
season.
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash. waste into the lagoon several times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged each day, also work well.

Management:
Practice water con scrvation­ minimize building water usage and
spillage from leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through
proper maintenance and water conservation.
Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted. This
will reduce the amount of solids entering the lagoon
Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and
the full temporary storage level.
Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the
minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid lever (Figure 2-1)..
Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on
nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage
will be maximized for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly,
irrigate in the late summer/early fall to provide maximurn lagoon
storage for the winter.
The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than I foot to the lowest
point of the dam or embankment.
Do not pump the lagoon liquid level lower that the permanent storage
level unless you are removing sludge�.
Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid
surface and as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetatiop,
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 instafled.
Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near.1a'goon edges.
Do not allow trees or, large bushes to grow on lagoon dam, or embankment.
Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is
full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for
obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a
pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:

proper lagoon sizing,
mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage and spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller
pump through la-rge-bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul
and spread onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate. .
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to. dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity immediately " and'h6t resume until you are sure that.the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repailred as soon as
possible.-,
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much'Iligher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have yqur lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors. ,

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. Assuming proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure ---an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before Placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels ---high levels are a safety risk.
Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity ---protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge
removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater
table.
NOTR If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage �tarts, it can quickly cause a large discharge
Of wastewater and possible dam failure.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively now equipment. Discharge rates and application rates
change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular,
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use,
nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformity. For example, operating the system,with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity,
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated scale from which to ' read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations, However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided
the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randornly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling
guns, sprinklers should be located along a Aransect 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 (permanent storage) with
minimum odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level
to be reached (permanent + temporary storage) may vary due to
flushing operations and the amount of fresh water to be added to the
system.
The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume
based on : 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after
evaporation; and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that
occurs on the average of once every 25 years. The volume of
waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly
constant throughout the year and from year to year. This
estimate is based on 7 inches of excess rainfall which is
equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in a year.
The average annual excess rainfall is approximately 8 inches.
Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall will
need to be pumped each year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a
factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is
determined in each design to begin pumping and thisAs usually
the outlet invert,of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet
pipe is not installed on the elevation to begin pumping, a
permanent marker must be installed on this elevation to
indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be
established to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment depth,
(6 feet). Pumping can be started or stopped any time between
these two elevations for operating convenience as site
conditions permit (weather, soils, crop, and equipment to apply
waste without runoff or leaching).
Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal.- Methods of application include solid set,
cent6r 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 tha 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. When pre -
charging is completed, flush buildings with recycled lagoon
liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after
initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed.
This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see
Attachment B) before land application.

3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 43.30 as marked by permanent markers. stop pump -out
when the fluid level reaches elevation 41.00 or before
fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of
favorable bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25 year
storm is 86398 cubic feet or 646256 gallons. As stated
before, this volume will vary considerably from year to year.
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one
(1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.4
inches per hour.
5. Keep vegetation on embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon
mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to
maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation.
7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to
stable outlets.
8. Keep a minimum of 100 feet cropland buffer or 25 feet of grass
vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields, particularly adjacent
to ponds, lakes, streams, open ditches, etc. Do not pump within
300 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well.
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment,, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ-
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.
NOTES:

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. Lagoon site (and pad site if
needed) to be stripped of topsoil (311) and stockpiled for use on dike
and pad slopes (2-311). The topsoiling quantity is in excess of
amounts specified on page one (1).
Cut-off Trench:
--------------
j4cut-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 be placed in
max. of 611 lifts and not placed in standing water. Compaction
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,SCS approved
material (i.e.-CL,SC,CH).,_Refer to the soil 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 according to seeding specifications sheet.

Steph,
His poultry operation is a 10-12,000 turkey operation. It is a dry litter system,
thus no lagoon impact. All litter is spread on other land owned or leased by the
Howard's according to his son, Louis. He had no soil sample reports for me to look
at to see if it is being applied or has been applied to his fields in the hog waste
plan.
I hope this clarifies what you needed. If not, let me know.

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and
the proper application rate prior to applying the wasce.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
THIS PLAN IS WRITTEN BASED ON AN IRRIGATION DESIGN DONE BY TOM CROCKETT
IRRIGATION, INC. TRACT 4222 IS A REPRESENTATION OF TRACTS 4222&4230 COMBINED.
THE FIELDS, AS SHOWN, ARE HYDRANT PULLS SHOWN IN THE IRRIGATION DESIGN. MR
HOWARD MUST ESTABLISH BERMUDA HAY IN PULL H1, AND FESCUE PASTURE IN PULLS
H2&H3. THE PULLS MUST BE SECTIONED AND MAINTAINED SUCH THAT A ROTATIONAL
GRAZING PATTERN MAY BE IMPLEMENTED FOR THIS PLAN TO REMAIN VALID.
