Subject: Facility #31-78/#31-165/#31-683
Dear David Powell:
I am the owner of facility #31-78,#31-165,#31-683 which I purchased around July,
2016. These farms were owned and built by Bell Enterprises.
Enclosed you will find a print out of lagoon call in records that I had forwarded to you
upon your request. The reports came from Smithfield Foods not from my son's state
record reports. In that list were all the facilities that we own and are producers for
Smithfield Foods. Upon your review there were several days of lagoon reporting missing
form July to September. The reason these days were blank were that Bell Enterprises had
animals in the buildings at the time of purchase. Those call in reports were reported on a
groups that were owned by Bell Enterprises so they did not show up under our name or
anyone. I have enclosed a correct list to complete those missing days from my son Steven
which he goes by weekly and after every rainfall event to record.
You will also find several days that were reported under the state required level. These
levels are reported by our Hispanic labor. The stakes on these new facilities are very
difficult to read and our Hispanic labor have had difficulty understanding and reading
them. You will find enclosed the levels that our son documents and records weekly on the
state rainfall and lagoon level report. We are in the process of replacing all the stakes to
new and readable markers and to the right elevation. We also plan in the future to report
all farms.ourselves correctly.
March 3, 2017 you came and reviewed all our facilities and found all our records up to
date and in compliance. You also found that we were working very hard to make our new
facilities as attractive and environmentally safe as our other farms. All records you
review were correct and we had know idea of our Hispanic Labor errors. Our plans are
not to every let this happen again in the future and plan to report what we record on each
farm ourselves. We take pride in being Good Neighbors and Good Environmental
Stewards. z
If you have any questions or need any other info ation please contact me at 919-738-
6500.

Please read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit carefully. Please pay careful attention to the
record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit. Record keeping forms are unchangedwith this
General Permit. Please continue to use the same record keeping_forms.
If your Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) has been developed based on site -specific information, careful
evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current WUP is inaccurate
you will need to have a new WUP developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (Iocal, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon,
storage pond, or any wetted area of a spray field.

Participant Selection
Due to current funding levels for the CLEANeAst
Program, not all eligible applicants to the program
may be selected to receive technical services. A primary
objective of the CLEANEAST Program is to improve
environmental quality in impaired watersheds in the
Eastern United States. Selection of the owner/operator
participants receiving technical services may be
prioritized based on site location with respect to impaired
surface waters and other factors. Every effort will be made
to ensure equitable selection of participants across animal
types, farm sizes, and geographic regions.
Program Confidentiality
Confidentiality of non-public information and findings
for each Individual livestock or poultry operation will
be maintained by the assigned TAP and the CLEANEAST
Program administrators. Distribution of the final EA
report, NMP amendment, or new NMP for an individual
operation to other parties is at the sole discretion and
approval of the owner/operator.
More Information
To learn more about the CLEANEAST Program including
the program services, how eligible owners/operators
apply to participate in the program, and the qualifications

MANAGEMENT PLANS
Comprehensive Livestock
Environmental Assessment and
Nutrient Management Plan
Support for Owners and Operators of
Livestock and Poultry Operations in
the Eastern United States
http://livestock.rti.org
For additional information or to request
an enrollment form'coll 1. 866,881,7191 (toll free).
7/08-1 M—OFUKEL W 08 50570

The CLEANEAST Program provides confidential, no -
cost technical support to owners and operators of
beef, dairy, swine, and poultry operations located
in the Eastern United States to help them identify
and implement farm management practices that
protect the environment. Owners/operators who
apply and are selected by the program receive on -site
support services from a qualified Technical Assistance
Professional (TAP).
Program Services
The technical services offered by the CLEANeAsT
Program are:
• Environmental Assessment (EA). The TAP conducts
a confidential on -site environmental review of the
owner/operator's livestock or poultry operation and
prepares recommendations that can be implemented
to address any identified environmental issues.
• Existing Nutrient Management Plan (NMP) Review
and Update. The TAP reviews the owner/operator's
existing NMP, then identifies and prepares necessary
NMP documentation to update the plan for the current
livestock or poultry operation.
• New NMP Development. The TAP collects the needed
information and performs the required analyses to
prepare an NMP for implementation at the owner/
operator's livestock or poultry operation.
Program Administration
The CLEANeAsT Program is developed and
administered jointly by RTI International (RT0 and
North Carolina State University (NCSU). Funding
support for the program is provided under a

Audit Policy
(www epa.gav/complianceiincentives/auditing)
Commenting on Federal Enforcement
Actions and Compliance Activities
The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(SBREFA) established an SBA Ombudsman and 10-Regional
Fairness Boards to receive comments from small businesses
about federal agency enforcement actions. If you believe that
you fall within the Small Business Administration's definition
of a small business (based on your North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS) designation, number of
employees, or annual receipts, defined at 13 C.F.R. 121.201;
in most cases, this means a business with 500 or fewer
employees), and wish to comment on federal enforcement
and compliance activities, call the SBREFA Ombudsman's
toa4ee numberat 1-888-REG-FAIR (1-888-734-3247).
Every small business that is the subject of an enforcement
or compliance action is entitled to comment an the
Agency's actions without fear of retaliation. EPA
employees are prohibited from using enforcement or any
other means of retaliation against any member of the
regulated community in response to comments made under
SBREFA.
Your fluty to Comply
If you receive compliance assistance or submit comments
to the SBREFA Ombudsman or Regional Fairness Boards,
you still have the duty to comply with the law, including
providing timely responses to EPA information requests,
administrative or civil complaints, other enforcement
actions or communications. The assistance information
and comment processes do not give you any new rights or
defenses in any enforcement action. These processes
also do not affect EPA's obligation to protect public health
or the environment under any of the environmental statutes
it enforces, including the right to take emergency remedial
or emergency response actions when appropriate. Those
decisions will be based on the facts in each situation. The
SBREFA Ombudsman and Fairness Boards do not
participate in resolving EPA's enforcernent-actions. Also,
remember that to preserve your rights, you need to comply
with all rules governing the enforcement process.
EPA is disseminating this information to you
:vithoutmaking a determination that your business
or organization is a small business as defined by
Section 222 of the Small Business Regulatory
Enforcement Fairness Act or related provisions.

To DWQ,
In response to your letter dated November 15, 2012 which issued an NOV for Bell
Enterprises 5,6,7,8 the following actions were taken on the date of the inspection
November 1'% 2012 to immediately remedy the situation.
1) Bell Enterprises owners and employees made absolutely sure that no lagoon water
left the sprayfields by placing a 24 inch berm around the affected areas
2) Bell Enterprises employed the services of a contractor to come out with a
backhoe, front end loader and 1 Stan dump truck
3) Bell Enterprises notified Murphy -Brown
To permanently correct the situation the following actions were taken by
November 5a', 2012.
1) Contractor hauled 23 loads of fill dirt with each dump track load weighing
approximately 18 tons (see pictures)
2) Each low lying place in the field where water was standing during inspection was
filled and fill dirt evenly spread (see pictures)
3) Berms that are 24 inches high were placed around the edge of each sprayfields
affected to prevent any runoff
4) Rye grass was planted on the new fill dirt to hold it in place
5) Company employees as well as the 3 certified operators for this farm (Kenneth
Patrick Bell, Kenneth Ray Bell, and Larry Chestautt) thoroughly reviewed
operating procedures for farm which must be followed before pumping such as:
a) inspecting fields for any possible areas of runoff during application before
pumping
b) inspecting sprayfields on an hourly basis during pumping to insure no runoff
c) making sure the other 4 farm employees who are not certified operators
keep watch so that no runoff occurs

With these procedures in place I am confident that Bell Enterprises corrected the
immediate situation and has put policies in place to insure that no further incident of this
kind will take place.
Thank Y40for all

(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 v—, AJL tlrt3 tj
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and. reduce odor problems. V �[�
JUN 1 6 2009
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on ty Il:aut tent_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
21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, helshe shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing himther 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.
S 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.
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.
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
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.
Page 6

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
1 T 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.

I (we) verify that all the above information is correct and will be updated upon changing. I (we) understand the operation and
maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste management plan for the farm named above and will implement
these procedures. I (we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treatment and storage system or
construction of new facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the Division of Environmental Management before the
new animals are stocked. I (we) understand that there must be no discharge of animal waste from the storage or application system
to surface waters of the state either directly through a man-made conveyance or from a storm event less severe than the 25 - year,
24 - hour storm and there must not be run-off from the application of animal waste. I (we) understand that run-off of pollutants from
lounging and heavy use areas must be minimized using technical standards developed by the Natural Resources Conservation
Service. The approved plan will be filed at the farm and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District. I (we) know
that any modification must be approved by a technical specialist and submitted to the Soil and Water Conservation District prior to
implementation. A change in land ownership requires written notification to DEM or a new certification (if the approved plan is

(Design Capadty)
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 tot�le
waste or disking will conserve nutrients and. reduce odor problems.
JINN :x.6.2009
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on ty:nutdnti-oontent 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 analys€s.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for Compliance with 15A NCAC
21-1.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

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 most, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions. and level

Failure to Provide Sludge Survey Reports

Dear Mr. Bell:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
Through conversations and correspondence with Clark Wright, an attorney representing Bell
Enterprises, the Division of Water Quality has learned of your concern over the Notices of Violation
sent to your company during August 2007 for failure to submit sludge survey reports for your three
farms in Duplin County. Additional correspondence, recently provided by Mr. Wright's office, which
was prepared by your -consultant, Rainman Environmental, attests that the sludge surveys were
conducted and reports were sent to the Division. Although the Division has no record of receiving the
reports, I can only believe that they were sent in good faith. Also, I was pleased to hear that recent
compliance visits to your farms during the past year found everything in order and all documentation in
place.
In consideration of the correspondence and staff's recent observations, I am, with this letter,
retracting the three notices of violation, however, the paper copy of the original notices in our files must
be retained as a matter of record. Please contact me should you have additional questions about this
matter.

Dear Bell Enterprises Inc:
In accordance with your application received on 1-Mar-07, we are hereby forwarding to you this
Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Bell Enterprises Inc, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management
Plan (CAWMP) for the Bell Enterprises 5-8, located in Duplin County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than the following swine annual averages:
Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 15912 Boar/Stud: 0
Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0
Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0
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 September 30, 2009 and replaces the NPDES
COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue
conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension
in Condition II1.19 does not apply.
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 State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is
a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pav
careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
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.
• r t.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .0111(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100-foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Per 15A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall
continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS
standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Wilmington Regional Office. The Regional Office
Aquifer Protection staff may be reached at 910-395-3900. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact the Animal Feeding Operations Unit staff at (919) 733-

Dear Mr. Bell:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
The Division's records show that a completed PLAT Form has NOT been submitted for this facility. If
our records are in error please resubmit the completed BLAT Form for this farm.
There is a condition in your Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit addressing the
completion of the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool for your animal feeding operation upon
notification by the Division of Water Quality (Division).
Your NPDES Permit Number NCA231683 Condition I.6 states:
"if prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government
establishes Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a
facility operating under this permit, the Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility
and its CAWMP under the requirements of the Phosphorus loss standards to determine the
facility's ability to comply with the standards. This evaluation must be documented on
forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to the Division. This
evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving
notification from the Division.
The method of evaluation is the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) developed by NC State
University and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. PLAT addresses four potential loss
pathways: leaching, erosion, runoff and direct movement of waste over the surface. Each field must be
individually evaluated and rated as either low, medium, high or very high according to its Phosphorus
loss potential. The ratings for your farm must be reported to DWQ using the attached certification form.
The PLAT forms must be kept as records on your farm for future reference.
The Division's records show that you received the notification to conduct PLAT on July 14, 2005. To
avoid possible enforcement action for a violation of your permit, The Division of Water Quality requests
that the following items be addressed:

2. Consult with your technical specialist and submit a written schedule for completing the PLAT
evaluation.
Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in a civil penalty assessment for the facility.
Please be advised that this notice does not prevent the Division of Water Quality from taking enforcement
actions for any past or'future violation. Furthermore, the Division of Water Quality has the authority to
levy a civil penalty of not more than $25,000.00 per day per violation.
Please provide this office with a written response on or before April 17, 2006.

(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 sail 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.

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 14 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 383 - 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 �rwwwwwwwwwti

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.

Narrative of Irrigation System Operation
This system is designed as an expansion of the original irrigation system for Hardison Farms.
Producer has the capability, through a short length of above ground pipe, to connect this new system to the existing
system, however, most irrigation on this additional land will be accomplished through effluent from the adjacent
lagoon.
While setbacks required by SB515 apply to this expansion, none are applicable to this design due to the
location of the field vs. required setback features.
Producer is aware of start-up procedures, winterization, and R&M requirements of his system

Kenansville, NC 28349
Subject: Notice of Violation
D&B Farm # 1 &2
Facility Number: 31-683
Duplin County
Dear Mr. Hardison:
This is to notify Donald Hardison, who holds Certificate of Coverage AWS310683 under
Swine Waste General Permit AWGI00000 issued pursuant to North Carolina General Statute
143-215.1, of violations of the General Permit and other items which need to be addressed.
On March 22, 2001, Mr. Stonewall Mathis of the Wilmington Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality performed an inspection of your animal operation and the animal
waste management system serving this operation. During the inspection, Mr. Mathis observed
the following:
1) The Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) under the Animal
Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) for your -facility allows Plant Available Nitrogen
(PAN) to be applied to the small grain crop on Field 4 Hydrant 14 at a rate of up
to 50 lbs/acre. PAN was applied to the 2000-2001 small grain crop at the rate of
101 lbs/acre on Field 4 Hydrant 14. Applying an amount in excess of the
maximum allowable application amount (hydraulic overloading) had also
occurred on Field 4 Hydrant 14. There are also other instances of overapplication
of PAN on the 2000-2001 small grain crop. These are violations of Part 11.
Operation and Maintenance Requirements, Section 4 of the General Permit which
requires that land application rates shall be in accordance with the CAWMP and
in no case shall land application rates exceed the PAN rate for the receiving crop.

2) The referenced facility D&B Farm # 1 &2 (31-683) is being operated under the
same WUP with facilities Hardison Farm #3 (31-684) and Deano Farm (31-807).
You need to submit a completed application for coverage under the General
Permit for the combination of the three facilities.
3) You need to ensure that a waste sample analysis dated within 60 days of each
application event is used for determining the amount of PAN applied. This
should be done in accordance with Part III. Monitoring and Reporting
Requirements, Sections 4 and 5 of the General Permit.
4) You need to apply lime to those fields requiring one ton or more per acre
according to the Standard Soil Fertility Analysis (soil test). This should be done
in accordance with Part II(3) of the General Permit.
5) Corral/feedlot areas need to be restricted to areas which are not part of the
sprayfield. This should be done in accordance with Part 1I(2) of the General
Permit.
6) There was some discrepancy between written records of spraying events and Mr.
Dean Hardison's statements, i.e. the written records showed that spray application
had taken place on one sprayfield area while Mr. Dean Hardison stated that the
specified event actually took place on another sprayfield. Proper record keeping is
important to help avoid overapplication. Please ensure that records of spray
events are kept properly. This is should be done in accordance with Part III(5) of
the General Permit.
Please submit a Plan of Action which addresses the above noted violations and items.
The Plan of Action should include a list of any and all modifications that have been and will be
implemented to correct the noted violations and items and prevent their recurrence along with a
timetable for completion of the modifications. The written Plan of Action must be submitted to
this office within ten (10) days of receipt of this notice.
Be advised that the Division of Water Quality may take further action in these matters
including assessment of civil penalties, injunctive relief, and permit revocation.

To Whom It May Concern,
MAY 14 20ol
v:........ ............... ...... ........
We are writing in response to DB Farm #'s l & 2, notice of violation on March 22, 2001.Our
farm was 'inspected by your agencies represenative Mr. Stonewall Mathis, who found several
minor discrepancies. Among these discrepancies was a site for overapplication resulting in our
notice of violation. We write to you today to state our plan of action.
1) PAN applied to small grain crop: field #4, hydrant # 14. Violation of part It.
Our Farm has never been part of a notice of violation, and makes every attempt to operate
within compliance. However, this violation is our error and in the future will continue to make
every attempt to prevent this incident from happening by utilizing our PAN in compliance with
our waste plan.
2) General Permit
Our farm has submitted all the necessary information to DWQ for the combination of these
facilities as of May 9, 2001. We continue to await word from your agency.
3) Waste Samples
Mr. Stonewall made suggestions on the samples provided on our records regarding the 60 days
within each application event. There were a few instances where a lower rate should have been
used. We will review information on the waste samples and how to properly insert them as
needed.
4) Lime application
Lime deficiency was discovered via soil samples. Mr Mathis suggested lime application on
those fields requiring 1 or more ton per acre. Again we will review the samples and obtain new

samples to determine or lime situation on these particular fields, and will take the necessary action
to correct it.
5) Corral/Feed Lot
The corral and feedlot area's have been moved to a new location apart from the sprayfield.
6) Disrepant Records
This problem occurred as a result of switching over to a new WUP. All Fields, maps, &
hydrant #'s were changed, thus causing some confusion among the sprayfields records and
statements made by the operator. We apologize for this error and the disarray of records at the
time of the visit. Our new WUP has been completed and should not be a problem in the future.
Thank you for your time and attention of these matters.

of establishing that the property is entitled thereto. Except as provided below, an owner claiming exemption or exclusion shall annually rile in
application for exemption or exclusion during the listing period. If the property for which the exemption or exclusion is claimed is appraised by the
Department of Revenue, the applicatio: i shall be filed with the Department- Otherwise, the application shall be filed with the assessor of the county

Applications handled separately by a municipality shall be filed in the office of the person designated by the governing body, or in the absence of such
designation, in the office of the chief fiscal officer of the municipality.

or exclusion, the assessor or the Department of Revenue, as appropriate, shall proceed to discover the property. It, upon appeal, the owrer
demonstrates that the property meets the conditions for exemption or exclusion, the body hearing the appeal may approve the exemption or exclusion.

Facility Number 31-683
Duplin County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Dean Hunkele on 6/24/99 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 Dean Hunkele the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Dean Hunkele, at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, NC 28404, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have
any questions please contact Dean Hunkele at [phone]. If within 90 days you are
unable to provide Dean Hunkele with the information you are automatically required
to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within
180 days of receipt of this letter.

Notification for Wettable Acre Determination

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_

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 31-683
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. IRRi, 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

Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste
should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the
fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so
that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to
maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an
environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the
nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop
can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding
capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre
per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre
annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate
filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface
waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
Page: 1

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 and volume of waste 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.)
9792 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hags/year = 18604.8 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
9792 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 22521.6 1_bs. 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.

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 grazed to a height of four
inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed
for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small
grain to reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too
high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
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.

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 3623.04 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 18115.2
Page: 6

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 60.384 acres of land. If. you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 144.9216 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the -PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25o 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
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.

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.

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 BASED ON 400LBS TOTAL NITROGEN PER ACRE TO BE APPLIED ON THE
AVAILABLE PUMPING ACRES.
The soils are AuB and BnB. Based on current NRCS standards the average
nutrient needs for Bermuda hay overseeded with small grain on this farm would be 300 Ibs
Nitrogen per acre. Mr. Hardison should DOCUMENT YIELD DATA to verify that he is able to
obtain the yields specified in this waste plan.
TOTAL USABLE ACRES IN THIS PLAN ARE WITH MINIMAL BUFFERS. IT IS THE PRODUCERS
RESPONSIBILITY TO IRRIGATE THE TOTAL ACRES DOCUMENTED IN THIS PLAN. THEY
SHOULD BE IRRIGATED SUCH THAT NO WASTE IS DISCHARGED INTO WATERS OF THE
STATE.

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.
fi. 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.
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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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.
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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 far 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.

Dear Mr. Helminger,
Following your visit to our animal facility on July, 3, we at Triple H Swine are in the process of
the repair work you requested regarding our lagoons. We have contacted and hired Wells
Brothers Construction Company, based in Clinton, NC to do the work. I talked to them today,
and they will try to begin work on our farm Monday, July 14. In addition, all irrigation records
now comply with all waste plans on our farms. Also, we are in the process of moving cattle to
the Deano farm, which has a grazing plan that is in compliance with our waste plans.
Sincerely,

On July 3, 1997, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality
inspected your animal operation and the lagoons serving this operation. It was observed that erosion cuts
and other bare areas on the walls of both lagoons could threaten the integrity of these structures. In addition,
it was observed that you are not following your certified animal waste management plan.
The erosion cuts on the walls of both lagoons should be filled and revegetated.. All other bare areas
on the lagoon walls should also be revegetated. In addition, the storm water drainage path along the outer
wall of lagoon #1 should be corrected to prevent further erosion. Also, trees and piles of debris should be
removed from the outer wall of lagoon #1. Finally, the cattle should be removed from your spray fields or
grazing should be officially incorporated into your animal waste management plan. We suggest that you
contact your service company, local NRCS office, or Soil and Water District office for any assistance they
may be able to provide to correct these situations.

RE: Waste Utilization Plan
Facility 31-683
Duplin County
This letter is in regards to the Waste Utilization Plan submitted to the Division of Water Quality
by the Duplin Soil and Water Conservation District on May 28, 1996. After careful review, the Division
has the following concerns and comments which must be satisfactorily addressed before any acceptance
maybe given for the plan:
1. A revised certification form signed by a designated technical specialist.
2. In the cropping plan several yields appear to be above the maximum allowed by USDA-NRCS for
high level of management. Please include site yield records to verify the Realistic Yield
Expectations. Or, adjust yields and application rates accordingly (including grazing reductions).
3. Please verify and submit relevant calculations such as Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN), etc.
4. The acreage declared in the submitted certification is not consistent with the acreage calculated
in the waste utilization plan. In addition, please include a map of all appropriate spray fields
included in the plan.
5. Maximum application rates of 0.5 inches per hour have been specified. USDA-NRCS operation
and maintenance plans recommend a maximum of 0.3 inches per hour for the application of waste.

Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a
_ iven storaaz capacity. When the waste reaches ti'-ic designed]
level, it must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollE_ttion of surface and/or around dater. The plant nutrients
in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the craps on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan
uses nit.roger, as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be
arEalyzeo before each application cycle and annual soil test.
+&r^e encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for
r-ealistic yields of the crop to be grown.
=,venal factors are i'tnportant in implement ing you_ waste
utilization plan in.order to maxitite the fertilizer value of
the waste Znd to ensure that it i� applied in an
environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the
Heeds of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of t1he
µsa+ate. La not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rate} and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to
!and eroding at greater than 5 toms per= acre per year. Do net
apply waste on satE-tr'•ated soils or ar; land when the sur-face is
frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to
avoid d'rhift 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 grossing crop or:
FEc;'i more than ,:3L71 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste
+_'r disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical
rEE-ttrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
r-equirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis
report from your waste management facility.
The design of your waste management facility is based on the

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
uses nitrogen 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 not
apply material on saturated soils or on land when the surface is
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.

Your Nutrient Utilization Plan is designed in accordance with all
application laws regarding the actual application of effluent.
a. Effluent shall 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.--
e. 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.appl.ication
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
feet wide permanent grass filter strip should be seeded along all
ditches in fields that receive animal waste.

I understand that I must own or have access to equipment,
primarily irrigation equipment, to land apply the animal effluent
described in this nutrient utilization plan. This equipment must
available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge
occurs from the lagoon in a 25-year.l-day storm event. I also
certify that the a will be applied on the land according to
this plan at the t pr riate times and at rates that no runoff

Dear Mr. Hardison,
An
This isto inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently
modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management
(DEM), Water Quality Section.
On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water
quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for animal
operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters of the state.
The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain minimum criteria are
met (15A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have met one of the criteria for
being deemed permitted
We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds listed
in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993 and
December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form to DEM by December 31 1997.
New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must obtain signed certification
before animals are stocked on the farm. Certification of an approved animal waste
management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water Conservation Commission adopts
rules later this year.
We appreciate you providing us with this information. if you have any question about
the new nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at [phone].
Sincerely,
//os- Steve Tedder, Chief
