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 the 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 not be applied to land eroding at more 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 in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops 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 applications 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 RECEIVEI] r APR 0 12009 BY: RECEIVED 1 DENR I DWQ Aquifer Prntection Section MAR 3 0 Z009 Bull & Buddy Farms Page 2 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 the 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.

Available Nitrogen 4543 lbs. Surplus or deficit -1577 lbs. 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. Bull & Buddy Farms Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for 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 materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters 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 field 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 711 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 3555 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 12 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 28 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the 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 Bull & Buddy Farms Page 4 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 irrrigate the acres shown in tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. in no instances 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste.

The Waste Utilization Plan for this farm is developed by Prestage Farms technical specialist. Waste is utilized on this farm by a cropping system comprised of Hybrid Bermuda Grass Hay overseeded with small grain. This plan includes new solid set irrigation in two existing sprayfield areas, and additional newly cleared area adjacent to one existing field. Table 1: Waste Utilization Area Properties Tract Field Soil Tyne Avail. Acres 71850 1,2,3 WoA 6.8 71850 N6 FoA 2.8 71850 4 1 FoA 1.83 Land Application System A solid set permanent irrigation system is specified for application of wastewater on this site. All sprinklers will be single nozzle Senninger 7025RD-1-1"M.with all full circle spray patterns. The wetted diameter of the specified sprinkler is approximately 150 feet and the flowrate is 21.8 gpm at an operating pressure at the sprinkler of 65 pounds per square inch (psi). Based on field testing by NCSU, sprinklers are estimated to deliver approximately 90% of manufacturers stated spray diameter, so design is based on 135 feet. Using a common spacing of 60% of the wetted diameter requires a spacing of approximately 81 feet. Spacing on all sprinklers is 80 feet between sprinklers along each lateral and between each lateral. This spacing should provide a coefficient of uniformity of approximately 78%. Based on actual operation of existing equipment, the pump system will deliver approximately 230 gpm at 65 psi sprinkler pressure. The zoned system is arranged to spray 10-11 sprinklers in Zones 1-4, and 6 sprinklers in Zone 5. The operator must adjust flow utilizing inline valves to allow for proper flow based on number of sprinklers in each zone to prevent application beyond field borders. Currently 4" PVC pipe is buried underground as supply line to the existing system. This supply line system was previously installed to support a big gun solid set system, and the new system should be tied into this main line. The laterals shall be constructed of 2, 3, and 4" class 160 PVC pipe, size based on number of sprinklers in a lateral (See "PIPE INSTALLATION"). All fittings shall be constructed of Schedule 80 PVC and solvent soldered. Each zone shall have a gate valve as a shutoff and control mechanism. All sprinkler risers are to be approximately 1.5 feet in height and to be constructed of 2" Schedule 80 PVC pipe. Risers shall be installed according to the specifications shown on the riser installation detail of Appendix B of document. Thrust blocks shall be placed around all entry points, tees, ells, valves, and ends of laterals. At startup, the operator should always make certain that the water has an outlet to prevent damage to the pump and supply lines. A 4" butterfly valve shall be placed on the discharge side of the flex assembly to allow the pumping unit to be disconnected without draining the supply line. Wastewater Application Specifications This solid set irrigation system is designed to apply wastewater to the bermuda grass hay and small grain -cropping regime. The soils for this acreage have been classified as Foreston and Woodington loamy sand. The following table summarizes the characteristics of the given soil types for this farm: Table 2: Site Soil Characteristics Field Soil Type Slope Cropping Precip. Max. No. Regime Rate App. Depth 1 Foreston 0-3% Bermuda Grass/ .50 .95 Small Grain 2 Woodington 0-3 % Bermuda Grass/ .40 1.3 Small Grain The NRCS allows up to a 0.95" application for Foreston class soil and a 1.3" application for an Woodington soil on a cover crop. As a precaution to ponding and runoff, the depth of application shall be limited to a maximum of 0.50" for both soils. The design application rate is shown in Table 3. This design application rate is based on the operating parameters of the irrigation system and the characteristics of the soil to prevent excessive ponding and runoff. However, good management practices in conjunction with the design application rate are the only ways to prevent ponding and runoff. Examples of good management practices are not spraying on frozen or saturated soil, not spraying on days when wind speeds exceed 5 miles per hour, etc. Since the lagoon is designed for 180 days of temporary storage, it is important that pumping occur regularly, with the last application on bermuda grass prior to frosting and the first application as early in the spring as possible. Although the operator is encouraged to irrigate as often as conditions permit, another application of wastewater must not be applied until the previous application has been utilized through evapotranspiration. If there are no rainfall events after the last application, the required time until a subsequent application may be made is usually 3 to 5 days. This time period is an estimate, however, and will vary with climate and local weather conditions. During the winter months, when temperatures are likely to fall below freezing, the risers need to be drained to prevent damage from expansive freezing. The recommended depth to bury all supply lines and laterals is a minimum of 30 inches. Water should not freeze at this depth in the location of this irrigation system. To prevent damage, all pipes above the 30 inch bury depth should be drained. Likewise, the pump, suction line, and discharge line should be drained when freezing temperatures are likely to occur. System Maintenance In order that the system may perform efficiently and correctly, all components must be maintained and cared for. Sprinklers and air relief valves should be checked periodically to ensure that they are operating properly. Pressure gauges should be checked regularly. Although it is not necessary that the pump be kept under shelter, it is highly recommended that it be protected from the elements as much as possible. Any broken or damaged risers should be replaced or repaired as soon as possible. Sprinklers should be checked and kept free of debris. It is recommended that risers be kept clearly visible and marked to prevent breakage. It is a good practice to perform a routine inspection of all equipment each time before operating the irrigation system. If a problem is found during operation, such as a leak, immediately shut the system down and make the necessary repairs. If a leak or problem causes runoff of wastewater, the owner is required to follow the emergency action plan designed for the facility. Solid Set Irrigation Sprinkler Settings and Wettable Acres This system is designed to utilize Senninger 7025 impact sprinklers equipped with #20 (5/16") nozzles. These sprinklers are of single nozzle design with a 25' trajectory. This system design includes 49 full circle spray patterns. Table 3 outlines the parameters for each spray zone. The precipitation rate for each spray pattern was calculated and is shown in Table 3. Limiting the application depth to 0.33" should allow Exum soils to handle the design PR without ponding or runoff. Operator should closely monitor half circle sprays and manage to prevent runoff.

This describes how the irrigation system is designed to operate. Although this design specifies how the wastewater should be applied, the total amount of wastewater applied must not exceed the nutrient requirements of the cropping system as specified in the Nutrient Management Plan for this facility. Each application of wastewater should not exceed the application rate specified above and no more than total precipitation rate for each soil type listed in Table 2 above. Table 4: Irrigation System Specifications Sprinkler Flow Rate 21.8 GPM Sprinkler Operating Pressure 65 PSI Design Full Circle Precipitation Rate 0.33 in/hr Pump Type Electric Horsepower 2 Parallel @ 10 HP ea. Accurate record keeping is a critical component of properly managing this irrigation system. Operating times, nutrient content of the wastewater, and operational pressures should be recorded to maintain accurate application rates. The North Carolina Certification Training for Operators of Animal Waste Systems Manual contains record keeping forms suited to this purpose. This information is also useful in determining maintenance required and needed adjustments to keep the irrigation system operating as specified in this design. Irrigation equipment should be calibrated annually and maintained in good working order. Pipe Installation All pipes are to be class 160 PVC plastic. Underground pipes shall have a minimum cover of 30 inches to prevent damage to pipe by equipment traffic and livestock. Backfill over pipes is to be compacted when piping is installed. Concrete thrust blocks must be installed at all elbows, tees, gate valves, and end hydrants. The point of ground entry of supply lines should also have thrust blocks installed (the inlet to the main supply line). As the required lateral flowrate decreases beyond each operating sprinkler, the size of the lateral beyond each sprinkler may also decrease. The figure below illustrates proper pipe sizing for this irrigation system design. Figure I. Lateral Sizing Illustration For this system, 2" class 160 PVC pipe may be used as lateral pipe to supply the last two sprinklers on each lateral_ This is based on the flowrate required to supply these sprinklers and the velocity of the fluid through a given diameter pipe for that flowrate. In the same manner, 3" class 160 PVC may be used to supply up to four sprinklers prior to the last two, as shown above. All sprinklers prior to these must be supplied by 4" class 160 PVC as specified. Calculations Precipitation Rate The precipitation rate (PR) should not exceed the infiltration rate of the soil. The (PR) is calculated as follows: PR= 96.3xQx 360 1xs W PR = 0.33 iph for full circle. Where: Q = Sprinkler Foowrate = 21.8gpm I = Lateral Spacing = 80 R s = Sprinkler Spacing = 8011 w = Arc Sprinkler Moves = 360' (full circle) Velocity in Pipe V = Qx 0.408 D' Where: V = Velocity = 6.11 ft/sec Worst case Q = System Flowrate = 240 gpm (Assuming 11 Sprinklers Operating) D = Pipe Diameter = 4 in Total Dynamic Head The Total Dynamic Head (TDH) is the sum of the friction losses in the pipe and fittings, plus elevation head and suction head losses. Since.existnng supply line and pumping system will be utilized and have been verified for flow and pressure at the subject fields, the TDH will not be calculated. rim- FoM-V 1 " R SPRIER (pat) BASE SURE 35 40 U,S. - Oiaate I r(Post) 45 Ba Cis do 65 70 METRIC - Dla..mhn (metm) Wm1 25 3.0 3.S 4A 4.S (p4� W25 43M 5a75 5&00 t5.25 5.0. 72.5Q 914 Nozzle - (70n 014 Mozzb - (5.8 min) Flow (gpm) am 8.66 920 9.68 102 10.8 11A 11.5 (Lta) 0.52 0.57 0.61 0.65 0.70 0.73 Otam. at IS height (0) 106 111 113 115 117 119 121 123 0.5 m (m) 32-7 34.3 35.1 36A 36.9 37.8 Oiam. at 6.0' height (11) 114 116 121 124 126 12B 129 130 2 0 m (m) 3&1 36.6 37.9 38.8 39.3 39.8 816 Mazda - (11-M 1t16 Nomdo - (6A mm) Flow (gpm) 10.7 11A 121 1Z8 13A 14.0 14.6 15.1 Ps) 0.69 0.75 0.81 0.87 0.92 0.97 Diam, at IS height (It) 111 117 120 123 126 129 131 133 0.5 m (m) 34.3 36.3 37.6 39A 40.0 41.0 Olam. at 6,0' heW (0) 122 126 129 131 134 136 137 135 2 0 m (m) 37.5 39A 40.1 41.2 41.8 4Z2 ma Naalo - (9192") O18 Nosrlo - (7.1 mm) Flaw (gpm) 13.3 142 15A 15.9 18.8 17A 18.1 18.6 (t!s) 0.85 0.94 1.01 1.08 1.15 1.21 Diem, at 1.R h n igM (tt) 11B 124 127 129 434 139 142 144 M5 m (m) 38.4 35.4 39.5 41.8 43.3 44.5 Olam, at 6.0' hWgtd (4} 128 132 135 137 141 144 146 147 2-0 m (m) 39.3 40.9 41.9 43Z 44.5 45.0 420 Nozdo-(GMr),).

There are a number of machines that can be used to prepare the trench for PVC plastic pipe. Soil types, moisture content, depth of trench required and type and diameter of pipe must be considered. Generally chain trenches, wheel trenches, backhoes, or vibrating plows will be used for trench preparation. The vibrating plow can only be used for solvent weld PVC pipe and generally is limited to the smaller diameter of pipe. Under most conditions the chain -trencher or wheel trencher will be faster than the backhoe. Where wide trenches for large pipe are required, the backhoe will be most satisfactory. If soil conditions permit, long stretches of open trench will expedite pipe installation. However, if rain is forecast the pipe should be installed and the trench backfilled. To avoid sharp turns in the line at obstructions, trenches should be curved within limits of curvature of the pipe. -7- FROM FAX NO. 9102962122 Mar.

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 the 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 not be applied to land eroding at more 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 in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops 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 applications 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 Bull & Buddy Farms Page 2 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 the 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.

Available Nitrogen 4543 lbs. Surplus or deficit -1577 lbs. 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. Bull & Buddy Farms Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for 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 materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters 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 field 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 711 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 3555 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 12 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 28 acres of land, please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the 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 Bull & Buddy Farms Page 4 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 irrrigate the acres shown in tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instances 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 the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste.

Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit. In accordance with your application received on January 17, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Christy Cavenaugh, 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 AWS310482 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 Bull & Buddy Farms, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 1975 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 Pern ittee 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., OEM Non -Discharge Permitting Unit Internet http:Yh2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919)715-6048 Customer Service Center Telephone 1-B77-623-6748 An Equal Opportunity Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility.

If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3653.75 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 12.1791666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 29.23 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 2511 depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and Page: 7 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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.

In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum Page: 8 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION THIS PLAN IS WRITTEN ON AND WETTABLE ACRE FOOTPRINT. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is'the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10'tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) S. 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. G. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" 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: 10 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. 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: 11 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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 Go 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.

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 Patrick Fussell on 5/24/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Patrick Fussell the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Patrick Fussell, 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 Patrick Fussell at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Patrick Fussell with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,'North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled110% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 4 Category 2: ❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

Because you promptly reported and blocked the discharge, I have decided not to assess a civil penalty. However, because your farm has subsurface drainage in the spray fields, you need to be especially careful when spraying waste. Your Operator in Charge is required to.inspect the spray fields during the application of waste (Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code Subchapter 8F Section .0203). This should include checking the ditches to make sure there is no discharge. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing you from the responsibility to comply with all applicable state laws and regulations.

I feel that we responded in a timely manner by calling DWQ and did the following things as soon as possible on the same day that the problem was discovered. We dammed the ditch and pumped to nearby fields, hired a septic tank cleaning company to help pump downstream from the dammed ditch and hauled to my spray fields, which cost us a lot of money. Since I just purchased this farm back in November and did not have a Operators Certification, and did not know that the operator -in -charge was pumping that day, I do not feel responsible for this violation. We contacted the designer of the irrigation system and we could not find any problem with the irrigation system.

In response to your letter dated December 29, 1999, .I want to recount the events that the operator -in -charge, Mack Lanier and me did after finding out that we had a discharge from my spray field on December 9, 1998. Below are steps that were taken to eliminate the discharge of wastewater from my farm: 12/9/98 1. Prestage Farms was called. 2. Glenn Clifton Technical Specialist with Prestage Farms came to investigate the problem. 3. Called DWQ in Wilmington. 4. Called landowner next to farm and got.permission to dam up ditch that runs by the farm. 5. Also got permission to pump fluid from ditch to field. 6. Dammed up ditch to stop fluid from going farther downstream. 7. Pumped fluid from ditch to field with irrigation pump. 8. Called irrigation engineer who designed system to make him aware of the problem. 9. Dug down to irrigation pipe.where we thought was the leak with no success. 12/10/98 10. Checked irrigation system in spray field with the engineer that designed the system and technical specialist Glenn Clifton for leaks in piping system. The system ran for 45 minutes on small sprinklers, and no leaks were found. 11. Hired a Septic Tank Cleaning Company to pump fluid downstream from dammed ditch out of a hole that had been created at a culvert outlet. He pumped approximately 25,000 gallons and sprayed on my spray field behind the hog houses. 12. Put irrigation pump in ditch and pumped for 1 hour onto field. 12/11/98 13. Pumped fluid out of ditch: Started at 11:15 a.m, and stopped at 12:30 p.m. 14. DWQ inspector came around 11:30 a.m, and said fluid in the ditch looked good, but to pump one more hour. Page 2 Since we just purchased this farm and do not have our Operators Certification, but we have taken the test, we do not feel responsible for this violation. We have contacted the designer of the irrigation system and he will go over with us the operation and maintenance plan for the system before another application of waste is applied to the spray fields. I feel that we have responded in a timely manner to this violation. By damming up the ditch and pumping onto nearby field, and pumping 251000 gallons of water from a hole downstream from dam and hauling_ to my spray field that there was little damage to the environment. Should you have any questions concerning this information, give me a call at 910-346- 8113.

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 strohgly 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 i 5 tons per acre per year. waste may be applied to land s 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. 1 14 Page: 1 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.) 1975 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hags/year = 3752.5 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 1975 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 4542.5 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.

APPLIC METH N TIME END TOTAL10 Indicates that this field is being overseeded (i.e. interplanted) or winter annuals follow summer annuals. in interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grated to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of- bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than --cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on time small grain is 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.

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 730.75 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3653.75 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 12.1791666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 29.23 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not.exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil. moisture content,. soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic -solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and Page: 6 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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. I ! I [Application RatefApplic. Amount Tract I Field I Soil Type !

In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum Page: 7 'ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN 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 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION THIS PLAN IS WRITTEN BASED ON AN IRRIGATION DESIGN FURNISHED BY MR AVERY JARMAN. WASTE FROM THE 1240 OPERATION WILL BE PUMPED ON THE ADJOINING LAND - CLEARED NORTH OF THE PATH AND ALSO ON TRACT 7945. Page: 8 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste -'shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre.per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied'on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or -grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. S. 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 outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right--of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge oi� 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 PLAN 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.

SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum:elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following .items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre- charge'd 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 precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 45.0 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.9 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 39631 cubic feet or 296443 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3. inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain, a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residences or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law. `1 Dec.= 11 -P8 -a9 : 48A Env i rochem • f f 910 392 4424 P.01 Environmental Chemists, Inc. 6602 WindmiLL Way CONSULTING Wi Lmington, NC 28405 CHEMfSTS FAX TRANSMITTAL Date: To: -f il F a x # 350 J zt.LJ-► From [`mnn- 910-392-0223 Phone 910-392-4424 Fax Company; QCDEI�e-1) WU No. of Pages to FoLtow• ENVIROCHEM ❑ec-11;98--b9:48A Envirochem 910 392 4424 P-O2 envirochein-�Environmental Chemists, Inc.

Animal waste was found entering and flowing through the field ditch and into an unnamed tributary of Cypress Creek. This incident resulted in the discharge of animal waste to waters of the State and is a violation of your Certified Waste Management Plan. The Division of Water Quality will may proceed to revoke Foy Farm's permit unless the following conditions are completed: Immediately eliminate the discharge of wastewater and/or list actions to correct the noted violation. 2.
