(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer req}airsd 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 balariced for realistic yields!of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to ma)amize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it. is applied in an environmentally safe
manner. Always apply, waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration -rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre, per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when
it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations.' Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
r
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental -Management Commission.

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

Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every ¢ MONTHS. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stoned In your structure exceed Elevation "see lagoon design.
Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (fam ily Sol! Canservadon Service) or Soif
and Water Conservation District office after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the
waste.

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 property apply the waste. If the
producer does not own adequate land to property dispose of waste, he/she shall provide
a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of
the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in
the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied`to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for
other nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acne
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.)
Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that
runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause
drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or
flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops In such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would: inhibit growth. The potential for salt
damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with
a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held
to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste Is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property
boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal_
Animal waste other than swine -waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995).
shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter
Strips).

Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a `technical specialist".
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly Into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a
manner that courses no runoff or drift from the site.

NARRATIVE OF IRRIGATION DESIGN AND OPERATION
FOR
HENRY LUCUS-LINDA' S FARM
DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
This irrigation system is designed with six inch, Class 200 PVC gasket pipe and schedule
80 fittings. The system is designed to accommodate the flow velocities, flow rates and the
pressure requirements associated with two Hobbs 3" travelers. Air vents and thrust
blocks are to be installed as indicated on the drawings. Air vents will consist of using a b"
x 2" saddle with a 2" galvanized threaded pipe and an AV 150. The trust block areas have
been calculated and are listed on Exhibit D4 in the plan. The design of this system
requires the use of a 1.08" ring nozzle in the guns. Each pull has a specific arc setting and
travel speed which must be used to achieve the desired application. This information is
given in detail on page 2 of this design. A detail of the hydrant design is also included and
specifies the type and size of fittings. All pipe shall be installed with a minimum of 30" of
cover and shall be backfilled in no less than three passes, leaving enough soil material
above original grade to allow for settling.
SYSTEM START UP AND OPERATION
When setting up the reel, make sure it is level and the stabilizer legs are down and secured.
Engage the brake, then disengage the transmission. Pull out the hose at a speed not to
exceed 3mph. Engage transmission before disengaging the brake. Prime the pump and
start engine at idle. Operate engine in a manner not to exceed 50 psi until a solid stream
of water is exiting the gun, air is out of the line and pressure is slowly building on the
gauge. Increase rpm's slowly until desired pressure is achieved. Set all "Murphy" safety
switches to insure immediate shutdown of system if a problem occurs. Also, set the timer
to strut off pump at the time a run will be completed -- but, make it a practice to idle the
system down instead of relying on the safety timer. Check all safety switches on the reel
after each start -up to insure proper operation. Read and review the manufacturers
operator manuals for additional details on start-up procedures. Grower should walk the
entire pipeline periodically to check for leaks or potential problems.
WINTERIZATION
Disconnect both ends of all flexible hoses at the pump and the traveler. Remove drain
plug from gun cart and pull out hose at least half way to purge enough water to protect
from freezing. Wind hose back onto reel and replace drain plug.

NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 9792
(Design Capacity)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in. the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the loops 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 groom.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to ma)dmize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to -ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
mariner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important - as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when
it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters which is not allowed under DEAR regulations. Wind conditions should also be
considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maAmize the value of nutrients for
crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a
growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
RECT MAR 2 4 2009
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15AA
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Dear Henry Lucas:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
Your Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit contains a condition
that addresses the sludge survey requirement for the lagoon(s) at your animal
feeding operation.
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA231667 Condition 1II.16, on page 10 states:
"All facilities, which are issued a COC to operate under this. permit, shall conduct
a survey of the sludge accumulation in all lagoons within one (1) year of receiving
the COC and every.year thereafter. This survey shall include but not be limited to
a sketch showing the depth of sludge in the various locations within each lagoon.
This survey shall be submitted as part of the facility's annual report in the year it
was conducted..."
Our records indicate that the Division has not received the sludge survey results

RE: Sludge Survey Testing Dates
Facility # 31-667
Duplin County
Dear Henry Lucas, Jr.:
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your sludge survey information on
January 26, 2005. With your survey results, you requested that a sludge survey for the lagoons at
Linda's Farm not be required until 2007. Due to the amount of treatment volume available in
lagoon 2351 DWQ feels that s sludge survey should be performed in 2006. The results of the
2006 sludge survey are to be submitted with the Annual Certification Form that will be due on
March 1, 2007.
For lagoon 2352, DWQ agrees that a sludge survey is not needed until 2007. The results
of the 2007 sludge survey are to be submitted with the Annual Certification Form that will be
due on March 1, 2008.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at

Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application. System
Duplin County
-Dear Henry Lucas, Jr.:
On March 14, 2003, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued an NPDES General
Permit for swine facilities. The -General. Permit was issued to -enable swine facilities in North Carolina to
obtain coverage under a single permit that addresses both State and Federal requirements.
In accordance with your application received on February 27, 2003, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Henry Lucas, Jr., authorizing the operation of the subject animal
waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with NPDES General
Permit NCA200000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your COC Number
AWS310667 to operate under State Non -Discharge Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the LindaOs Farm, located in DuplinCounty, with an animal capacity of no greater
than an annual average of 9792 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWW). 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 July 1, 2007. 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.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed General Permit. Since this is a new joint State and

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

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 and

applied, they must be accounted for. N must be based on realistic yield expectation.
NOTE. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some
eastern counties of North Caroline to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients.
This plan only addresses Nitrogen.

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 Carolina" for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.
Page 5
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
9 Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage
from animal waste should also be considered.
10 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a
high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
1 i Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist'.
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a
manner that courses no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

17 A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced as necessary to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage or discharge.
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications animal waste
during the crop season.
21 Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept
for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3)
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23
Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

IRRIGATION SYSTEM DESIGNER
Name: Kraig Westerbeek
Company: Private
Address: 1635 W. Wards Bridge Rd. Warsaw, INC
Phone: (910) 293 6787
Required Documentation
The following details of design and materials must accompany all irrigation designs:
1. A scale drawing of the proposed irrigation system which includes hydrant locations, pipelines, thrust block locations and buffer areas where applicable.
2. Assumptions and computations for determining total dynamic head and horsepower requirements.
3. Computations used to determine all mainline and lateral pipe sizes.
4. Sources and/or calculations used for determining application rates.
5. Computations used to determine the size of thrust blocks and illustrations of all thrust block configurations required in the system
6. Manufacturer's specifications for the irrigation pump, traveler and sprinkler(s).
7. Manufacturer's specifications for the irrigation pipe and/or USDA-NRCS standard for IRRIGATION WATER CONVEYANCE.
8. The information required by this form are the minimum requirements. It is the responsibility of the designer to consider all relevant factors at a particular site and
address them as appropriate.
9. Irrigation pipes should not be installed in lagoon or storage pond embankments without the approval of the designer.
NOTE: A buffer strip of 50' or wider must be maintained between the limits of the irrigation system and all
perennial streams and surface waters per NC Statutes.
Sheet6
Narrative of Irrigation System Operation
This system design incorporates a wetted acreage determination completed for this farm (pulls 1-24) with an irrigation
system design done for pulls 25-40. The piping system, and acreage calculations for the new portions was done
based on criteria for 'new' systems. SB515 setbacks must be adhered to for these fields and pulls.
Grower is familiar with all operation, maintenance, and winterization requirements of this system.

Field Calibration Procedures
for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment
HARD HOSE
AND CABLE
TOW TRAVELER
IRRIGATION SYSTEM
General Guidelines
Land application equipment used on animal production farms must be field
calibrated or evaluated in accordance with existing design charts and tables
according to state rules that went into effect September 1, 1996. Technical
Specialist certifying waste management plans after September 1, 1996, must
also certify that operators have been provided calibration and adjustment
guidance for all land application equipment. The rules apply to irrigation sys-
tems as well as all other types of liquid, slurry, or solid application equipment.
Information presented in manufacturers' charts are based on average op-
erating conditions for relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and applica-
tion rates change over time as equipment ages and components wear. As a
result, equipment should be field calibrated regularly to ensure that applica-
tion rates and uniformity are consistent with values used during the system
design and given in manufacturers' specifications. Field calibration involves
collection and measurement of the material being applied at several locations
in the application area. This publication contains step-by-step guidelines for
field calibration of hard hose and cable tow traveler irrigation systems.
Operating an irrigation system differently than
assumed in the design will alter the application rate,
uniformity of coverage, and subsequently the applica-
tion uniformity. Operating with excessive pressure
results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift,
and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. 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.
Clogging of nozzles or crystallization of main lines
can result in increased pump pressure but reduced
flow at the gun. Plugged intakes will reduce operating
pressure. An operating pressure below design pressure
greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application
uniformity. Field calibration helps ensure that nutri-
ents from animal waste are applied uniformly and at
proper rates.
The calibration of a hard hose or cable tow system
involves setting out collection containers, operating
the system, measuring the amount of wastewater
collected in each container, and then computing the
average application volume and application unifor-
mity.
An in -line flow meter installed in the main
irrigation line provides a good estimate of the total
volume pumped from the lagoon during each Irriga-
tion cycle. The average application depth can be
determined by dividing the pumped volume by the
application area. The average application depth is
computed from the formula:
Average application depth (inches) =
Volume pumped (gallons)
27,154 (gal/ac•in) X Application area (acres)
The average application depth is the average
amount applied throughout the field. Unfortunately,
sprinklers do not apply the same depth of water
throughout their wetted diameter. Under normal
operating conditions, application depth decreases
towards the outer perimeter of the wetted diameter.
Big gun sprinkler systems typically have overlap
based on a design sprinkler spacing of 70 to 80
percent of the wetted sprinkler diameter to compen-
M00202080236
sate for the declining application along the outer
perimeter. LVhen operated at the design pressure, this
overlap results in acceptable application uniformity.
When operated improperly, well -designed systems
will not pro%-ide acceptable application uniformity.
For example, if the pressure is too low, the applica-
tion depth will be several times higher near the
center of sprinkler and water will not be thrown as
far from the sprinkler as indicated in manufacturers'
charts. E'en through the average application depth
may be acceptable, some areas receive excessively
high application while others receive no application
at all.
IVhen applying wastewater high in nutrients, it is
important to determine the application uniformity.
Collection containers distributed throughout the
application area must be used to evaluate application
uniformity.
vlany types of containers can be used to collect
flow and determine the application uniformity.
Standard rain gauges work best and are recom-
mended because they already have a graduated scale
from which to read the application depth.
Pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a
uniform opening and cross section can be used
provided .he container is deep enough (at least 4
inches deep) to prevent splash and excessive evapora-
tion, and the liquid collected can be easily trans-
ferred to a scaled container for measuring..->.11 con-
tainers should be the same size and shape to simplify
application depth computations.
All collection containers should be set up at the
same height relative to the height of the sprinkler
nozzle (discharge elevation). Normally, the top of
each container should be no more than 36 inches
above the ground. Collectors should be located so
that there is no interference from the crop. The crop
canopy should be trimmed to preclude interference
or splash into the collection container.
Calibration should be performed during periods
of low evaporation. Best times are before 10 a.m. or_
after 4 p.m. on days with light wind (less than 5
miles per hour). On cool, cloudy days the calibration
can be performed anytime when wind velocity is less
than 5 mph.
0
The volume (depth) collected during calibration
should be read soon after the sprinkler gun cart has
moved one wetted radius past the collection gauges
to minimize evaporation from the rain gauge. Where
a procedure must be performed more than once,
containers should be read and values recorded
immediately after each setup.
Calibration Setup for Hard Hose and
Cable Tow Traveling Guns
Hard hose and cable tow traveling -.ins are calibrated
by placing a row (transect) of collection containers or
gauges perpendicular to the direction of travel, Figure
1. The outer gauge on each end of the row should
extend past the furthest distance the gun will throw
wastewater to ensure that the calibration is performed
on the "full" wetted diameter of the gun sprinkler.
Multiple rows increase the accuracy of the calibration.
Containers should be spaced no further apart than
1/16 of the wetted diameter of the gun sprinkler not
to exceed 25 feet. At least 16 gauges should be used in
the calibration. Sixteen gauges cvi l be adequate
except for large guns where the wetted diameter
exceeds 400 feet.
(IMa:cimum recommended spacing ben een
gauges, 25 feet X 16 = 400 feet.) Gauges should be set
at least one full wetted diameter of throw from either
end of the travel lane, as shown in Figure 1.
The system should be operated such that the
minimum travel distance of the gun cart exceeds the
wetted diameter of throw. Application volumes
should be read as soon as the last gauges stop being
wetted.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURES
1. Determine the wetted diameter of the gun.
2. Determine the number of collection gauges and spacing between gauges. For a wetted diameter of 320
feet, the rain gauge spacing should not exceed 20 feet. (320 ft / 16 = 20 ft).;.
3. Label gauges outward from the gun can: as either left or right (0, L2, L3, etc; R1, R2, R3, etc.)_
4. Set out gauges along a row as labeled and shown in Figure 1, equally spaced at the distance determined in
' "A
item 2 (20 feet). The row should be at least one wetted diameter from either end of the pull, The first
!'
gauge on each side of the travel lane should be 112 the gauge spacing from the center of the lane. For a ,
-
gauge spacing of 20 feet, Ll and R1 should be 10 feet from the center of the lane.
y
5. Operate the system for the time required for the gun to completely pass all collection containers. Record
the "starting" time that wastewater begins to be applied along the row of gauges and the "ending" time
: T3
when wastewater no longer is being applied anywhere along the row. Also record the distance traveled in
feet for the time of operation.
6. Immediately record the amounts collected in each gauge. (Refer to Table 1 for an example.)
7. Identify those gauges that fall outside the effective lane spacing, Figure 2. This volume is the overlap
volume that would be collected when operating the system on the adjacent lane.
8. Superimpose (left to right and vice versa) the gauges just outside the effective width with the gauges just
inside the effective width. Add the volumes together.
For the layout shown in Figure 2, add the volume (depth) collected in gauge R8 (outside the effective
lane spacing) to volume (depth) collected in gauge L5 (inside the effective lane spacing). Similarly, R7 is
I
added to L6; L8 is added to RS; and L7 is added to R6. This is now the application volume (depth) within
the effective lane spacing adjusted for overlap.

10. Calculate the deviation depth for each gauge. The deviation depth is the difference between each
individual gauge value and the average value of all gauges (#7). Record the absolute value of each
deviation depth. Absolute value means the sign of the number (negative sign) is dropped and all values are
treated as positive. The symbol for absolute value is a straight thin fine. For example, 121 means treat the
number 2 as an absolute value. It does not mean the number 121. Because this symbol can lead to
misunderstandings, it is not used with numbers in the worksheets at the end of this publication. The
symbol is used in formulas in the text.

"i" refers to the gauge number

14. Determine the application uniformity. The application uniformity is often computed using the
mathematical formula referred to as the Christiansen Uniformity Coefficient.
It is computed as follows:
Average depth (T9) -Average deviation (#1 1)
U� = X 100
Average depth (;#9)
15. Interpret the calibration results. The higher the index value, the more uniform the application. An index of
100 would mean that the uniformity is perfect — the exact same amount was collected in every gauge.
For travelers with proper overlap and operated in fight wind, an application uniformity greater than 85 is
common.
Application uniformity between 70 to 85 is in the "good" range and is acceptable for wastewater
application.
Generally, an application uniformity below 70 is considered unacceptable for wastewater irrigation using
travelers. If the computed Uc is less than 70, system adjustments are required. Contact your irrigation
dealer or Certified Technical Specialist for assistance.

Facility Number 31-667
Duplin County
Dear Henry Lucas, Jr.:
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Brian Wrenn on 11/23/99 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 Stoney Mathis the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Stoney Mathis, 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 Stoney Mathis at (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you
are unable to provide Stoney Mathis 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.

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 Consecration
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_
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-667
Duplin County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i_e. ER -RI, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2,
SLDI, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during
routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an
appropriate enforcement action.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the

(Design ty)
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should
be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting
nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are
strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the
crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.. Normally
waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With
special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per
year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not
allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on
proper.sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for
analysis.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
Amount of Waste Produced Per Year(gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
979 a animals X1�(amt.) waste/animavyear =1`�{0 (amt) waste/year.
Amount of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) Produced Per Year
�1 -Na animals X_31bs. PAN/animal/year = 3 albs. PAN/year. (PAN from N. C. Tech.
Guide Std. 633)
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
and surface application:

* This N is from animal waste only. If nutrients from other sources such as commercial
fertilizer are applied, they must be accounted for. N must be based on realistic yield
expectation.
NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K maybe over applied while meeting the N
requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in
some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses
allnutrients. This plan only addresses Nitrogen.

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. Illegal
discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the
Division of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste.
If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall
provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner
who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/ber the use of the land for waste
application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of
the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there
is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization,
or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS)
or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be
no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used
where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to 'Buffers"
required by DEM. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
(Interim) - Riparian Forest Buffers.]
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when the wind is blowing.
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" in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance_)
5
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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 draft from the site during application. No poriding should occur in order to
control conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application..
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that no
more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf area is covered.
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
on bare soiL
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance
may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter
strips are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands by
a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge
directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application
causes no runoff or drift from the site.
6
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc.,
shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a maximum
operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation.
Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas
where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion,
leakage, or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should
be kept on site.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Pat Durrett, Wastewater Treatment Plant Consultant

FROM: Andrew G. Heminger, Environmental Specialist
Wilmington Regional Office
SUBJECT: Request for Review of Phillip Sanderson's Operating License (#19113)
On August 7, 1997, Division of Water Quality personnel inspected Linda's Farm #1 (31-671) & #2 (31-667),
both owned by Henry Lucas. IAr. Lucas is not a certified operator, and Phillip Sanderson (#19113) has been
designated as the Operator in Charge for these facilities. At the time of inspection, large pools of waste water
were observed in the spray fields, indicating over application. One of these pools was greater than half an acre
in size. Evidence also indicates that waste had run off of spray.fields towards an adjacent stream. In addition,
leaking aluminum irrigation pipe had been set up within 18 feet of this stream.
On August 22, 1997, I spoke with both Mr. Lucas and Mr. Phillips. They indicated there had been three rain
events the previous week which created freeboard problems for the lagoons. According to Lucas and Phillips,
they pumped waste onto their spray fields for twelve straight hours prior to the inspection in an attempt to get
the lagoon levels down. I believe that these actions warrant a review of Mr. Sanderson's operating license.

Dear Mr. Helminger,
Thank you for your letter of concern you sent to me recently. please fund here my reM"m
and answers to the listed concerns.
Over a 7 day period we had over 13 inches of rain. I had to pump due to the fact that we only
had 11 inches of freeboard. Because of 64 it looked as if we had overpumped.
On the second Logoon, we have pumped it down to 25 inches and applied it as it should be.
I am in the process of putting underground pipe in_ But for ;now, we are having to use the
aluminum irrigation pipe. To my knowledge, we do not have any joints leaking, I have used
irrigation in various forms for over 30 years and every time you use it, when the pressure is
released, a very minimal amount of water leaks hack in the pipes.
As far as the pipes that were located near the strewn-4 we have moved them to anothet location
and when pumping we will see that they are further away than they were in the future_
Please let me know if I can answer anything else or if what we are doing is not quite enough.
I do endeavor to be in compliance with the stated regulations and will do my best to comply in the
future.
Thanks again,
Respectfully suhmftted, (l

Dear Mr. Lucas:
Subject: NOTICE OF DEFICIENCY
Lucas Farm #1 and #2
Facility Number: 31-671; 61-667
Duplin County
On August 7, 1997, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality
inspected your animal operation and the lagoons serving this operation. During the inspection, it was
observed that waste had been over applied to your spray fields. Evidence also indicates that some of this
waste had run off of fields. In addition, it appears that waste is lealdng from the joints of your aluminum
piping towards an adjacent stream. Finally, it was observed that you had insufficient freeboard in lagoon
#2.
To comply with your certified plan, your waste application methods must be modified immediately
to ensure that waste is not over applied to your spray fields. In addition, your aluminum irrigation piping
should be moved away from stream to ensure that there is no discharge of wastewater into waters of the
State. Finally, lagoon '#2 should be lowered in a responsible and timely manner.
To remain a deemed permitted facility, you must notify this office in writing within seven (7) days
of the receipt of this notice, what actions will be taken to correct these deficiencies. Failure to do so may result
in the facility losing its deemed permitted status and being required to obtain an individual non discharge
permit.

Dear Mr. Lucas:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study
Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly,
requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more
swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system Faust submit a
designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an
Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form'must be
submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a
certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H
.0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty.
If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please
contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office.
Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for
the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please
call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt of our staff at 9191733-0026.

SHEET 9. OF 2
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
i'luid level (Pei'maanent and ten to be reached may Vwir'y
due to si',;e conditions, weat�-zer, flushing oper_1,;ic-ns, and the amount
of fresh water -added to the sy7tem.
The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for:
(1) waste frot —11 animals _;nd (2) excess rainfall cute:` evaporation. P 1 s Q
included is storage for the 25 year — �4 hour storm for the l.nc��ti.oir.
The volume :}f waste generated from ct number of anivials will to
fairly canatatr'L t:-:` year a.d from year, to ye_-,', but. excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factors to consider i.n an annual p�_:nping cycle, but 11- sis stLr~age
vaIui;ie in1_[st aIwz�ys ae avaiIab1e.
A raximum' elevation is determined in each design to begin
puni ping and this is usually the outle invert of pipe(E) -F'r'om
building(s). if the outlet pipe is not installed at the- elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker muss, be installed at elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin;. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maint-in lagoon treatment depth.

Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable
method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set,
center~ Pivot, guns, and travel iv�g g:n i.rrigat ion. Care should be
taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops.
The fallowing items are to be carried out
1. It is strongly recommended that the 'Ur~eatinent lagoon be pre —
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
sUart —utp. Pre —changing 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,
flesh buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing ;ter 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 95.9 as marked by permanent marker. Stop PUMP —
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 91.5 . This temporary
storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 224621 cubic feet or

Your animal nutrient utilization plan has been specifically
developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the
soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for
your particular operation. The effluent must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
where the waste is to be applied. This nutrient utilization plan
usesnitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests
are 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 nutrient
utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of
the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply effluent based on the
needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the
waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil.types are important as they have different infiltration
rates and leaching potential. Effluent shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. ,Do-n_ct�j

_-frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value
-of.nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or
not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation
of.effluent will conserve nutrients and reduce odor.problems.

The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage
requirements may be more or less based on the nutrient analysis
report for your nutrient management facility.

Your Nutrient Utilization Plan is designed in accordance with all
application laws regarding the actual application of effluent.
a. zhzill not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface
water. For non -perennial streams, this distance may be
reduced provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present
b. Effluent shall not be applied to land eroding greater than 5
tons per acre per year.
C. Effluent shall not be applied closer than 100 feet from
water wells for human consumption.
d. Effluent shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwelling
other than those owned by the landuser.
Ce J Effluent shall be applied at rates that do not exceed the soil
Infiltration rate so that runoff does not occur.
Your soil types are listed below with the MAXIMUM application
rates. You should never exceed these amounts and depending
on soil and weather conditions, application rates may need to be
reduced.

If more commercial fertilizer is used than shown in this plan,
then additional acres of land may be needed. A three to fifteen
