NORTH CAROLINA Department of Environmental Qua! Waste Utilization Plan Producer: Debra Black Name of Farm: Black Farms of Pender County Location: 1670 Lemuel Black Rd. Bunn Level NC 28323 Phone: 1-910-893-2528 Type of Operation: Feed -Finish Number of Animal: 2448 Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon Method of Application: Irrigation Amount of waste produced per year: Amount of plant available N (PAN) produced/year: County: Pender 4651 ton/year 5630 I bs./yea r 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 the implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3_ Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. S. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change meth in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different applications methods are y not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for F'E8 2 4 2010 this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from By: your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which Black Farms of Pender County Page 2 could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and the crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Available Nitrogen 5630 lbs. Surplus or deficit -1287 lbs. Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Black Farms of Pender County Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and /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 materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 881 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 4406 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 15 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 35 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity Black Farms of Pender County Page 5 This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instances should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling the waste.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in the implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentialL cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. EIVED3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre1 $ ZQ�6year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils , when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which Black Farms of Pender County Page 2 could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing • waste -analysis content:and the crop .type.-= » .�• ;- _ :;,•::• Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commissiori.

Black Farms of Pender County Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses 4all nutrients: This -plan,only�addresses- nitrogen - F, :,, •, . _ In interplanted fields (i.e, small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain etc. is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results, Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, Filters strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 881 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 4406 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 15 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 35 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity Black Farms of Pender County Page 4 of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop �....,..r - - , ...--- . _ _. _.. - - - . ...... If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrrigate the acres shown in tables.

Farm is a contract finishing facility with anaerobic lagoon providing treatment and temporary storage of wastewater. The Waste Utilization Plan for this farm is developed by Prestage Farms technical specialist. Waste is utilized on this farm by a cropping system comprised of Hybrid Bermuda Grass Hay overseeded with small grain. This plan is to verify wettable acres and establish permanent underground supply pipe and hydrants for the existing spray areas.

Of this acreage, approximately 21.8 acres can be effectively irrigated by this hard hose traveler system design. Installation and operation of this irrigation system design must verify minimum setbacks and buffers, such as distances from public use lands, surface waters, wells, residences, etc. Land Application System Equipment shall consist of a Micro Rain Model MR58 hard hose traveling gun with 460 feet of 1.9" hose. A 16 mm taper nozzle shall be specified for the small gun provided with the traveler unit_ Wetted diameter used in design is based on 90% of manufacturer's data at 60 psi nozzle pressure, or 90% of 196' = 176'. Manufacturer's data indicates a flow rate of 93 gallons per minute (gpm) for these parameters. The producer will utilize an existing pumping unit with John Deere 4039 diesel engine and Berkeley Model B#JQBM pump, which is more than adequate for stated requirements. New underground supply line shall be constructed of belt and gasketed 4" class 200 PVC pipe. Approximately 4,520 feet of pipe will be required. All fittings shall be constructed of Schedule 80 PVC and solvent soldered. A 4" ground entry shall be installed adjacent to lagoon for connecting to the main supply line. The lagoon riser shall be equipped with a 2" sweep and a 2" air relief to allow any air in the lines to escape without causing damage to the system. Air relief valves shall also be attached at the ends of mains to prevent damage to the system from water hammer. These devices shall be installed at locations and elevations to prevent drainage and uncontrolled runoff during shutdown. --A-N-IAMAL FACILITY ANNUAL CERTIFICATION FORM fiftbo6C,0"2q*eor�ermitNumber YCAI-7103`7 County Pe.,,Ic Year 2005 Fa� lity,liame (as sf r Certificate of Coverage or Permit) 014,k Fty+�s e-� Pende.- Co Operator in Charge for this Facility t-� w4 i �� Br*���� Certification# 1 7 6 z Land application of animal waste as allowed by the above permit occurred during the past calendar year I/ YES NO.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in the implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. _ 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. JAN 2 3 2004 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils , when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DWQ regulations_ 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which Black Farms of Pender County Page 2 could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and the crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Black Farms of Pender County Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain etc. is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers, filters strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 881 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 4406 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 15 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 35 acres of land_ Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity Black Farms of Pender County Page 4 of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrrigate the acres shown in tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

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 sod 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 maadm. a 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. Sod types are important as theyhave 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 runo$'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 o£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.

Box 212 Atkinson, NC 28421 Subject: Notice of Violation & Recommendation for Enforcement SC&S Farms Facility Number: 71-39 Pender County Dear Mr. Robinson: This is to notify Leroy Robinson, who holds Certificate of Coverage AWS710039 under Swine Waste General Permit AWG100000 issued pursuant to North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1, of violations of N.C.G.S. 143-215.1 and the General Permit, On January 16, 2002, Mr. Chester Cobb from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality performed a follow-up inspection of your animal operation and the animal waste management system serving this operation. The following violations were noted during the referenced inspection and the routine inspection performed by Mr..Dean Hunkele of the referenced office on December 18, 2001. 1. -Discharge of Animal Waste Staff observed that animal waste was discharging or had discharged into several farm drainage ditches. The waste left the farm property via these drainage features resulting in a discharge to waters of the State. Waters of the State impacted by the discharge was an unnamed tributary of Moores Creek, Class C Swamp, in the Cape Fear River Basin., This is a violation of N.C.G.S. 143-215.1 which requires that no person shall make an outlet into thewaters of the State without having obtained and abided by the appropriate permit. This is also a violation of Part I. Performance Standards, Section 1 of the General Permit, which prohibits the discharge of waste from the animal waste management system into surface waters, wetlands, or ditches. Wilmington Regional Office Phone: 910-395-3900 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Fax: 910-350-2004 Wilmington, NC 28405-3845 Mr. Leroy Robinson February 11, 2002 Page 2 2. Failure to Notify The Division was not notified by you or someone on your behalf regarding the discovery of the discharge. This is in violation of Part III. Monitoring & Reporting Requirements Section 6a of the General Permit, which requires the Regional Office to be notified as soon as possible, not to exceed 24 hours. In addition, this facility failed to notify the Division of inadequate freeboard that was discovered by staff on December 18, 2001 and on other occasions as shown by the weekly freeboard records that were recently submitted by Murphy -Brown to the Regional office. This is a violation of Part Ill. 6e of the General Permit 3. Insufficient Cover Crops It was observed on December 18, 2001, that winter cover crops had not been planted or maintained in accordance with the facility's Waste Utilization Plan (WUP). Crops were still absent during the January 16, . 2002 visit. In addition, this facility has repeatedly not followed the WUP in the past by grazing fields specified to be harvested by haying. The is in violation of Part II. Operation and Maintenance Requirements, Sections 1 and 2 of the General Permit which requires proper maintenance & operation of the animal waste management system and maintaining vegetative cover in accordance with the WUP which is part of the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). 4. Failure to Maintain Required Records The facility has failed to meet requirements for conducting annual Soil Analyses for the application fields in violation of Part III. Monitoring & Reporting Requirements Section 3 of the General Permit The facility has failed to meet the minimum requirements for conducting analyses of the animal waste stored in the lagoon and land applied in violation of Part III. Monitoring & Reporting Requirements Section 4 of the General Permit. The facility has flailed to maintain all records associated with operation of the facility including land application events and weekly freeboard levels. These are in violation of Part III. Monitoring & Reporting Requirements Section 5 and Section 2 of the General Permit, respectively. 5. No Operator -in -Charge (01C) Our records indicate that you are the only certified operator designated for this facility. However,' -your decreased mobility and physical limitations due to health problems should have resulted in the designation of another OIC after May 2001. This new OIC would be capable of performing all the required tasks to operate and maintain the animal waste management system including the irrigation system, ,application fields, and records. This is in violation of Part V. General Conditions Section 2 of the General Permit and 15A NCAC 8F.0203. Failure to Determine Wetted Acres This facility was notified by the Division's Central office in Raleigh via certified mail received on September 4,1999 of a requirement to have a Wetted Acres Determination performed for the facility. This was required to be completed within 180 days or by March 2, 2000. To date, this action has not been completed, but is being worked on. Mr. Leroy Robinson February 11, 2002 Page 3 Please submit a detailed Plan of Action to the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality that describes the actions to be taken to address these violations and prevent future discharges. The proposed written plan_ of action must be received by this office within fifteen (15) working days - of the receipt of this notice. Upon approval and implementation of the plan, you must notify this office when the corrective actions are complete. Contact your Service Company, county Soil & Water district office, or county extension office for any assistance they may be able to provide. Be advised that the Division of Water Quality may pursue additional actions including civil penalties, injunctive relief, or permit revocation. Furthermore, please submit any written statement and supporting documentation that you wish to be considered by the Division regarding the January 16, 2002 discharge and these violations.

In your NOV notification letter, numerous violations are listed, and a request is made for information concerning each. Please consider the following as the required response to this NOV. I will respond to each issue in the exact numerical order that they appear in your letter: l . Discharge of Animal Waste — There is no argument that a discharge occurred from this facility. Mr. Robinson contends that he did not turn on the irrigation system to begin the irrigation event leading to the discharge. He does not know how the irrigation system was activated, but believes it to be the work of vandals. Not mentioned in your letter is the fact that over 56,000 gallons of water(fresh and waste), was returned from the two ditches in question to the lagoon serving this farm. 2. Failure to Notify — The discharge was discovered by Mr. Robinson and his daughter at approximately 9:OOAM the morning of the 18 . DWQ had already scheduled a routine visit on that day, and were expected by noon. His intern was to notify the Inspector upon his arrival for the inspection. 3. Insufficient Cover Crops — The cover crop was planted on the 5 acre bermuda field on 2/17/02. Although he has purchased rye seed on site, he wisely intends to re -sprig the other two fields by mid - March rather than plant rye no. The 5 acre field is sufficient spray area until then given the depopulated status of the farm. Each riser has been staked and marked as requested 4. Failure to Maintain Required Records — Mr. Robinson kept a daily/weekly hand lag of his freeboard and mortality, but had misplaced it around the time of his wife's death, and has not been able to locate it. 5. No Operator -in Charge — Mrs. Robinson, the previous OIC, passed away 12/26/01. Mr. Robinson's daughter took the course in February and is awaiting the March exam. This is a responsible plan of action and the only one possible for this family since the state offers only four exam times per year, speed quarterly. 6. Failure to Determine Wetted Acres — Mr. Robinson has repeatedly asked for assistance form Murphy Farms and Pender SWCD and CES on completing his wetted acreage determination. There is a real ._ it � •t. � f_ .- y. ,. • 1 • .. r�. ♦ i'1 1., Y�1�. i... .. .. .. 1... .,i ,`t Ir `f•• - 'F �...• A, w lack of technical specialists to do this kind of work, and Mr. Robinson should not be held liable for the slow response time resulting from this. In addition to the above responses, it should be added that Mr. Robinson suffered a stroke just a month prior to the 1/18/02 discharge. In addition, his farm was empty of hogs 6.5 weeks prior to the discharge, and continues to be empty today. This down time results in a lose of approxmh tely $1200.00 per week in income. This should be considered with respect to any impending enforcement action in this case. If there are any further questions, please call me at (910) 293 5330. LLC Cc.

Annual permit fees are billed following the issuance of the permit and then annually thereafter on the anniversary of that date. Your animal waste management system permit was issued on 2/8/1999. Your annual permit fee for the period of 2/8/2002 - 2/7/2003 is $150.00. Your payment was due 4/4/2002. Because this fee was not fully paid within 30 days after being billed, this letter initiates action to revoke the subject permit, pursuant to 15 NCAC 2H .0205 (c) (4). and G.S. 143-215.1 (b) (3). Effective 60 days from receipt of this notice, the subject permit is hereby revoked unless the required Annual Animal Waste Management System Permit fee for your animal operation is received within that time. Operation of an animal waste management system without a valid permit is a violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and is subject to the assessment of a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day. Your payment should be sent to: N.C.

Box 212 Atkinson, NC 28421 Subject: Compliance Issues SC & S Farms Facility Number: 71-39 Pender County Dear Mr. Robinson: In response to telephone calls received by Mr.'Chester Cobb on July lb, 2002, I have summarized what needs to be done at the farm. The listed conditions are requirements of the Swine Waste General Permit AWG100000 under which the facility is covered by Certificate of Coverage AWS310216 issued pursuant to North Carolina General Statute -143-215.1. 1. Current Irrigation System Is Inadequate The irrigation system serving the current land application fields is questionable. It has been indicated to us by Mr. Jeffery Brown with the North Carolina Division of Soil and Water Conservation (NC DSWC) that the sprinkler spacing does not adequately cover the currently used fields. Leaky hydrants were found during farm visits on December 18, 2001 and January 16, 2002; the leaky hydrants appear to have been a factor in the discharges noticed on those days. The status of the gate valves to shut off the d ifferent irrigation zones is uncertain. There is an irrigation supply line crossing one of the ditches that is not double -contained. An irrigation system will need to be designed and installed in the current fields and in any newly acquired fields. The irrigation system will have to be designed by an irrigation specialist or, PE. 2. More Land Is Needed for Waste Application Fields Preliminary information concerning the irrigable acres, see Figure I enclosed, obtained from the Pender County Soil and Water Conservation District Office shows that the current land application fields and receiving crops are inadequate in handling the waste from both hog houses filled to the design capacity of 2448 pigs. More land is -required for the farm to operate at capacity. Land application fields added to the farm will have to meet the appropriate setback distances, see Figure 2 enclosed. The setback distances of the acquired fields must be determined based on whether waste generated from the farm has ever been applied to those fields. In order to determine the irrigable acres within newly acquired fields, a survey of the property boundaries must be completed. Finally, the necessary irrigable acreage must be obtained that provides for the proper application of animal waste for the proposed amount of animals. N- C. Division of Water Quality 127 Cardinal Drive Extension (910) 395-3900 Customer Service ��� Wilmington Regional Office Wilmington, NC 26405 (910) 350-2004 Fax 1 800 623-7748 WC26 MR Leroy Robinson July 19, 2002 Page 2 3. Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) A new waste plan must be'implerii i0e4-to reflect irrigable acres for all land application fields. All irrigation design documentation including -a map(s) showing -the land application fields and irrigable acres is required. A copy of the leaseagreements must be kept with the CAWMP for any fields that are leased. 4. Receiving Crop Is Needed The fields appear to have been over grazed and are in poor shape. The fields need to be aerated to break up any hardpan, and low areas need to be filled to limit water ponding in the fields. A receiving crop will need to be established for all land application fields as specified in the CAWMP. The poor soil and additional land requirement will influence the receiving crops that can be utilized and the extent of allowable grazing. 5. Actively Certified Operator in Charge The farm must have a competent certified operator. It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the animal waste is handled in an environmentally sound manner, without negative impacts on state surface waters, groundwater, soils and crops, crop consumers such -as grazing animals, and neighbors. The operator is responsible for properly applying the waste and ensuring compliance with the conditions of the General Permit and CAWMP. It is also the responsibility of the operator to keep up to date all of the required records to include application records, weekly freeboard readings, waste sampling, and soil sampling. This is a big responsibility. Also, because of the discharge that was discovered on January 16, 2002, the farm will be required to have a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit. This permit will have additional requirements and is due to come out some time this year. Upon receiving notification from you that the necessary actions have been completed, a complete compliance inspection will need to be done by a staff person from this office to ensure compliance with the conditions of the applicable permit and CAWMP. ONCE THE DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY HAS DETERMINED THAT THE FACILITY IS IN COMPLIANCE, THEN WE CAN DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITY OF RESTOCKING ANIMALS AT THE FACILITY.

This is to notify Mr. Leroy Robinson, who holds a non -discharge permit for an animal waste disposal system pursuantto 15A NCAC 2H .0200 and North Carolina G.S. 143.215.1, of deficiencies of Animal Waste Permit AWS 710039. On April 19, 2000, 1 inspected your animal operation and the animal waste management system serving this operation. The following deficiencies were noted during the inspection: Cover Crop Needs Improvement (Failed, Inadequate Coverage, Weeds) During the inspection it was observed that your cover crops need improvement. Specifically, the bermuda fields appear to be needing replacement and the fescue fields need replacement or improvement. The fescue fields must be replaced this fall after the drainage work is complete at your facility. A summer cover crop like millet should be utilized until then to allow for waste application to these areas. All bermuda fields need to be assessed by either the Pender Co. Soil & • Water district office or the county Cooperative Extension agent by the end of August. Herbicides may be necessary to reduce competition from unwanted species. Also, it appears that the farm is being overgrazed, thus the county Cooperative Extension agent needs to determine how many animals your farm can adequately utilize for grazing. Cattle will need to be kept off of newly planted fescue until at least late next spring to allow field to mature, thus plans will need to be made to do so. Grazing also causes compaction of the soils in your spray fields, thus yourfields should be aerated at least every other year. For all crops, especially grassed pastures or hay fields, soil pH must be maintained for the proper health of the crop and uptake of nutrients from application. Lime must be applied according to the rate indicated on 127 North Cardinal Dr., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 9103953900 FAX 910350-2004' An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper P 254 116 737 �jp1) r AL US Posted Service Receipt for Certified Mail No Insurance Coverage Provided.

In no instance, should more than 2.0 tons/acre be applied during any year. It takes approximately 4-6 months for lime to work throughout the root zone; thus lime should be applied in late summer or early fall for it to be available to the summer crop next year. Grassed fields must be harvested to avoid disease, control weed growth, and remove applied nutrients. Bermuda fields should be cut for hay at a height of 16-20 inches and soil pH maintained at 6-6.5. Fescue fields should be cut for hay in April and again in October. Pastures may need to be cut for hay periodically if grazing herd cannot keep up with growth or mowed periodically for control of weeds. Herbicide may need to be applied periodically for control of broadleaf weeds or volunteer grasses. Grassed fields may need to be re -sprigged or re -seeded periodically in areas to maintain an -adequate cover. 2. Record Keeping During the inspection it was observed the following problems with record keeping at your facility: Irrigation Records -- No up-to-date spray records were on -site for the inspection. Records supplied to this office indicated that fescue PAN balances were started over for 2000. Fescue should be kept just like the overseed based on the crop cycle (Sept. -May). Revise your spray records accordingly. Your facility number is 71-39 not 2786 by the way. Daily spraying activities should be recorded on IRR-1 forms and must be used when using computer generated IRR-2 forms_ Nitrogen balances should be maintained on separate forms (IRR-2) for each crop cycle based on the certified waste utilization plan. Records can be kept by field if spray zone or pull irrigated is indicated in margins oron IRR-1 forts. Ideally records should be kept by spray pull or zone with acreage shown on IRR-2 forms as that covered by the pull or zone. Facilities with irrigation designs or layouts should follow them using the appropriate acreage assigned to each routine. Nitrogen balances should be updated at least monthly, but more frequently for low PAN crops or when balances are approaching PAN limits to avoid over -application. Freeboard Records — Weekly freeboard records for all lagoons on -site are required by the General Permit. If the facility must call these readings into their integrator, then a log of the levels must be maintained on -site to fulfill this requirement. Waste Analyses — A dated waste analysis report for each lagoon that irrigation occurs from is required within 60 days of any irrigation event. Forexample, waste report is dated Marchlst, then applications can be made until May 1st or backwards to January 1st. Waste can be applied prior to having an updated report such as spraying on February 1 st and using the PAN listed on a report on March 1 st of a sample taken February 20. However, the grower is cautioned against applying too often without knowing the nitrogen content of the lagoon on low PAN crops (like overseeds) or when nitrogen balance (PAN) is nearly used up for a crop to avoid over -application. It is highly recommended that samples be taken every 90 days (3 months) beginning in January to always have a valid sample report. This also allows fora 30-day period of report overlap where the grower can use the lowest PAN value of the two reports on the IRR-2 nitrogen balance records. To correct these deficiencies, please submit a detailed Plan of Action to the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality that describes the actions to be taken to address these deficiencies of Animal Waste Permit AWS 710039. Mr. Leroy Robinson May 15, 2000 Page- 3 The proposed written plan of action must be received by this office within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of this notice. Upon approval and implementation of the plan, you must notify this office when the corrective actions are complete. Contact your Service Company, county Soil & Water district office, or county extension office for any assistance they may be able to provide. If the deficiencies are not corrected, the Division of Water Quality may issue a Notice of Violation and pursue additional actions including civil penalties, injunctive relief, or revocation of your Animal Waste Permit AWS 710039. If you have any questions concerning this matter please do not hesitate to contact either Mr. Stonewall Mathis or myself at (910) 395-3900.

NCDENR NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES May 16, 2000 Subject: Notice of Violation and Revocation for Nonpayment SC&S Permit Number: AWS710039 Pender County In accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-215.10G, all animal operations who receive an animal waste management system permit will be charged in each year of the term an annual permit fee. Annual permit fees are billed following the issuance of the permit and then annually thereafter on the anniversary of that date. Your animal waste management system permit was issued on 218/99. Your annual permit fee for the period of 2/8/2000 - 2/7/2001 is $150.00. Your payment was due 415/2000. Because this fee was not fully paid within 30 days after being billed, this letter initiates action to revoke the subject permit, pursuant to 15 NCAC 2H .0205 (c) (4). and G.S. 143-215.1 (b) (3). Effective 60 days from receipt of this notice, the subject permit is hereby revoked unless the required Annual Animal Waste Management System Permit fee for your animal operation is received within that time. Operation of an animal waste management system without a valid permit is a violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and is subject to the assessment of a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day. Your payment should be sent to: N.C.

Stevens, Director Division of Water Quality October 16, 2000 Mr. Mike Godwin 363 Saddle Ridge Road _ Currie, NC 28435 Subject: Complaint About SCS Farms in Pender County Dear Mr. Godwin: 4 • • �f NCDENR ENviRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES I conducted a site visit at SCS Farms on October 16, 2000 in response to your complaint about the discolored water in the ditch leaving the swine operation in question. The results of my investigation are as follows. The ditch in question and others on the farm were cleaned out by the farm owner this summer as part of drainage improvements to the spray fields and farm. This was an existing ditch and well within his rights to remove the years of neglect from lack of maintenance. The water is clear beneath the duckweed and algae growing in the ditch. The growth of duckweed and algae in a slow flowing ditch, swamp, or stream is quite common in agricultural areas even behind beaver dams. No evidence of animal waste from the swine operation is evident in the ditch and the farm has good vegetative buffers from ditch lines to help prevent any discharge which would be pink in color if a fresh discharge occurred. The underlying problem at the location in question is that the culvert designed to carry water from that side of the road to the other side to allow drainage is not functioning property, thus causing water to back up into the drainage and roadside ditches. The culvert appears to be blocked on that side of the road and may be clogged or collapsed underneath the road. This is a result to a large extent by the constant grading of the unpaved road by the NC Dept. of Transportation. The owner and myself have lodged a complaint with NC DOT to correct the problem and I would urge you to do the same by contacting Ronnie Rochelle at (910) 259-5413. i asked Mr. Rochelle to see if markers could be erected at the culvert to alert grading crews to be cautious in the area about letting dirt enter the drainage path. Furthermore, logging that has taken place in the surrounding area including across the road and to the west of the farm in addition to recent hurricanes have also impacted the natural hydrology in the area. This causes stormwater and groundwater drainage via ditches and small streams to drain poorly and can add to problems in areas such as this. Hopefully, this will answer all your questions and concerns_ If not, then please feel free to contact meat (910) 395- 3900 Extension 226. Sincerely.

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. IRR1, I R2, DRY1, DRY2, DRYS, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD1, 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.

It was observed that a number of items need to addressed as described below. 1. The lagoon had 18 inches of freeboard. The minimum requirement for this lagoon is 19 inches., Since this facility has a General Permit, you are required to keep weekly freeboard records on site and report any infraction of the permit requirements including inadequate freeboard levels to the DWQ Regional office in Wilmington. Failure to do so is a violation of the permit. We were not notified by you, thus you were in violation of your permit. Lagoon should be lowered back into compliance in a responsible manner as soon as possible. Furthermore, freeboard levels were 19 inches during District's inspection on June 25, 1998 and 22 inches during DWQ's inspection on October 9, 1998. Greater attention is required to keep the freeboard level lower in the future. 2. Animal waste was ponded in a few small areas of the large bermuda field behind the lagoon. Make sure that the application rate does not exceed the hydraulic loading rate for the soils and soil conditions. 127 Cardinal Drive Ext., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper +k Z 4,18 221 356 US Postal Service Receipt for Certified Mail No Insurance Coverage Provided.

This value should be 50 lbs/ac for the small grain overseed. Records need to be revised accordingly so that you do not over apply to this field. If I recall correctly, you were still okay on the amount applied, but were close to the limit of 50 lbs/ac. In addition, an irrigation map or diagram needs to be created showing where hydrants are located in the fields with a numbering system. Spraying activities need to be kept on IRR-1 forms showing where waste was applied on a field using this numbering system to show that waste is being applied agronomically across the entire field. It is recommended that each field be broken up into smaller fields or spray zones and use a separate IRR-2 form for each spray zone. Use the approximate acreage that is irrigated for this spray zone on the IRR-2. Keep in mind that all zone acreages when added together cannot exceed total field acreage listed in the waste plan. Keeping records by spray zone using a separate IRR-2 form will give you the most flexibility when spraying. This will allow for - differences in field quality. For instance, it allows you to avoid areas of the field that may stay wet for long periods of time. 4. Drainage is a severe problem on a couple of the fields on your farm. Water was standing in the "fescue" field beside your lagoon and was quite deep in the fields adjacent to your pump house. The drainage problem was noted in during district's inspection last June and you were instructed to address the situation. I noticed that the field ditch that exists next to the pump house is in need of some maintenance (cleaning out). This may help with the problem in this location, but another ditch will need to be installed outside the fence in the main area in question. In the event that your property ends at the fence line, the fence will need to be relocated accordingly to accommodate the new ditch. In the field next to the lagoon, a grassed waterway may be a solution that would work. Contact the Soil & Water district office and Murphy for assistance -- this should be fixed this year as soon as possible. 5. Overall field quality needs to be improved. Drainage problems aside, areas damaged by cattle must be periodically repaired with new vegetation established. Fields that are lacking consistent coverage of the vegetation listed in the waste plan will need to be re-established. You need to Have a Pender County Agricultural Extension agent visit your farm and determine how many cattle your fields can adequately handle without causing problems like overgrazing. I feel that too many cattle were present given the current condition of the fields. I am not sure if you are planning to harvest the winter crop overseed on the large bermuda field or graze it off. If you are not aware, you can graze the overseed on that field during the winter with cattle excluded during the rest of the year, but it needs to be removed. Grazing cattle on poorly drained fields will require fields to be aerated at least every other year to help with infiltration of rainfall and waste applications. r. Leroy Robinson April 7, 1999 Page 3 I also question why cattle were not given access to the remainder of the fescue field behind the pump house, since it appeared that hydrants were located in this area. If this is part of the spray field, are you applying here? Given the PAN deficit in your certified waste plan, it is required and needs to be maintained with the crop removed through grazing or cutting for hay. These items are violations of your General Permit and certified animal waste utilization plan. Subsequent violations may generate a Notice of Violation and can carry the assessment of a civil penalty. You must notify this office in writing within fourteen (14) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions are being taken to correct these deficiencies and an approximate timetable for repairs. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its permitted status and being required to obtain an individual non discharge permit. Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per violation. If you need assistance with addressing these items, please contact your service company, the Pender County Extension or Soil & Water office. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call Dean Hunkele or Brian Wrenn at 910-395-3900. Sincerely, Dean A.

Hunkele Environmental Specialist Subject: Notice of Deficiency SC&S Hog Farm Farm Number:71-39 Pender County Dear Mr. Hunkele, On April 14, 1999, I received a copy of the Notice of Deficiency letter that was sent to the above mentioned farm. That same morning I went out to this farm and met with Jason Turner of the Pender County SWCD and Mr. Leroy Robinson, the farm owner, to discuss the situation. It was observed that the freeboard level had been lowered to within an acceptable level and that Mr. Robinson was making the necessary corrections to the irrigation records. As for the remaining items mentioned in the letter, some time is required to correct these problems. Since current field conditions are too wet to work at this time, Mr. Robinson plans to start repairs to improve field quality as the fields dry out this spring and summer. His plans include addressing the drainage problems in the fields by land leveling and creating waterways as needed, and by cleaning out and extending the main ditch along side the pump house. Once the reshaping of the fields is complete, lime, fertilizer and seed can be spread to re-establish the proper grass cover for each field. This will take some time to schedule equipment and work with varying weather conditions, but this work should be done by the end of October and no later than the end of this year.

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 3/24/99 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 (910) 395-3900. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Dean Hunkele with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6048 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/I0% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: El 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.

Telephone: C.ci 1(-'>) Type Operation: F.cJe,- F ., ; s L., Number of Animals: aLf (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 femlizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the ling nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual sod tests are stron¢J.v 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 fer tiEzer 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. Ieaching potentials, cation exchange capacmes, 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 mirl~ace 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 mammye 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 aaah,sis rep ort from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analvszs.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runofl:, 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 resp onsibility 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 ranoff 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. $. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. FEN 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 sods with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minirmim 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 residmtial property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation loch or canal.

When the waste reaches the designed level, it 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 on 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 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 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 and leaching potental. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste 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. Injecting the waste or disking 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. Acreage requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility.

Discharge rates and applicatib' gdlsgqp.,it change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter. You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the coverage diameter and application uniformity. For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform opening and cross-section can be used provided the liquid collected can be easily transferred to a scaled container for measuring. For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On a windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for concern. You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance. 'Reprinted for Certification Training for operations of Animal Waste Management Systems Manual OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN Proper lagoon liquid management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods. Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means .that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to receive lagoon liquid. This will make storage space available in the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer/early fall the lagoon should be pumped down to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to mainrain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste utilization plan will allow it. Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. Overflow from the Iagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of state law and subject to penalty action. The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following: Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dart. Fescue or common bermudagrass are the most common vegetative covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if -needed, to rnainmin a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilize- applied should be based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent. Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of these practices. This should be done at least once a year and possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for heavy vegetative growth. NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating the waste. Maintenance insoevtions of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at Ieast monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be checked should include, as a minimum, the following: Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pines ---look for: I. .. separation of joints 2. cracks or breaks 3. accumulation of salts or minerals 4. overall condition of pipes Lagoon surface—Iook for: 1. undesirable vegetative growth 2. floating or lodged debris Embankment---Iook for: 1. settlement, cracldng, or "jug" holes 2. side slope stability —slumps or bulges 3. wet or dump area on the back slope 4. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action 5. rodent damage Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong winds. These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam. A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be used to reduce the wave impacts. Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam. If your lagoon has any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary -fix if there is a threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the technical expem Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless recommended by an appropriate technical expert. Transfer Pumps ---check for proper operation of: 1. recycling pumps 2. irrigation pumps Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or replacement_ NOTE: Pumping systems should be instated and operated. frequently enough so that you are not co=fetely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform yourpumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not.the time to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an inventory of spare parts or pumps. Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste treatment or storage structures. The only waxer that should be coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing (washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system.for the following: 1. adequate vegetation 2. diversion cauacity 3. ridge berm height Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your sysmm during or nmrnediately following a heavy rain. If t=hnical assistance is needed to determine proper solutions, consult with appropriare experts_ You should r�--ord the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This well: give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount (you must also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you nay have an inflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be sewage into the lagoon from the surrounding land. lagoon Operation 1. Immediately after construction establish a corrrulete sod cover on bare soil - surfaces to avoid erosion. 2. Fill new Iagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste loading begaai-ns, taking care not to erode lining or. bank slopes. �. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the pine to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial.friIing or an means or" slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining. 4: When possible, began Ioadiag new lagoons in the spring to ma:imi bacterial establishment (due to warmer weather). 5. It is recommended that a new lagoorl be seeded with sludge from a healthy working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 pert,-nt of the full.lagoon liquid volume. This seeding should orc our -at lersr two w� prior -to the addition of wastewater. 6. iMaintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls bellow 7.0, add agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic fee: of lagoon liquid volume until the pH rises above 7.0. Optimum lagoon Iim_ rid pH is between 7.5 and 8.0. Y 7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and exc=ssive odor signals inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season. Loading: The more frequently and regulariy that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the betterthe lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily am optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained. and recharged each day, also work wet. Practice water conservation —minimize building water usage and spillage from Ieak ng waterers, brokers pipes and washdown through proper maintenance and water conservation. Minimize feed wastage and spillage by k=ping feeders adjusted. This will reduce the amount or solids entering the lagoon Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full temporary storage level. Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level and the maximum liquid. lever (Figure 2-1). Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient requirements and soil moisture so that "temporary storage will be maximi?d for the summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the laze summer/early fall to provide maximum lagoon storage for the winte.-. The lagoon liquid Ievel should never be closer th= I foot to the Iowesr point of the darn or embankment. Do not pump the la-- liquid level lower- that the permanent storage level unless you are removing sludge. Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and as far awav from the drainpipe inlets as possible. Prevent additions of bedding materials, long -steamed forage orvegetarion, molded feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the -lagoon - Frequently remove solids From catch basins at end of convnement houses or whe: ever they are installed. Maintain strict vegeztion, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embausmeat Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume. If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a. pollutant discharge. Sludge.Removal. Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by: proper lagoon sizing, mechanical solids =azadon of flushed waste, wiry settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or minimizing feed wastage and spillage. Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will: have more nutrients, have more odor, and require more land to properly use the nutrients. Removal t--hniques: Hire a custom applicator. Na the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller - pump through large -bore sprinidc er irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate. Dewater the upper par", of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix rem,aimn ning sludge; purinto liquid sludge appacamr; haul and spread onto cropiand or forageland; and soil: incorporate. Dewater the upper par L of lagoon by Lrrigadon onto nearby cropland or forageland; dredge siudge from lagoon with dz-, a or sludge barge; b-m an area beside moon to receive the sludge so tna* liquids can drain back into Iagoon; allow siudge to dewater•, haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or famage and; and soil incorporate. Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste constiments Jut as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different nutrient and petal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will -be limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop requizemeat+ Waste application ra will be discussed in demist in Chapter I When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Clow attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains infant- If you se -soh material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should stop the acriviry immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as possible - Sludge removed from the Iagoon has a much higher phosphorus and. heavy metal content than liquid- Because of this it should probably be applied to land with -low phosphorus and metal levels. as indicated by a soil test, and incortsorated to reduce the chance of erosion_ Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphor, it should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes, always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value. The atrolication of sludge will incrust the amount of odor at the waste application site_ Extra ire -action should be used to observe the wind diz=don and other conditions which could increase the concern of neighbors. Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure Lagoon failures -result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure- Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the dam. A arcing proper design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for ensuring strucrure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include: Modification of the lagoon structure an example is the placement of apipe in the dam without proper design and contraction. (Consult an expert m lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams_) Lagoon liquid levels high levels_= a safety risk. Failure to inspect and maintain the dam - Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon - Liner integrity protect from inlet -pipe scourin912 g, damage during sludge removal, or rupture from lowering lagoon limed level below groundwater table. NOTE: If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly. cause a large discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.

Q OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------- This lagoon is designed for waste treatment with minimum odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be reached may vary due to so i l coed i t i ling, f I ush i ng operations, and _ the amount of fresh water- added to the system. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of app I i cat i can i nc 1 ude solid set. center pivot, guns, and tr ave I i ng gun i rr i gat i on. Mare should be taken when applying waste to prevent runof f from the f i e I d or dawage to crops. The following items are to be carried out. 1.. it is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to 1f2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors dur ins start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste enter i nG the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Sir i ids should be covered with effluent at all times. 2. The attached waste ut i l i zat i can plan shall be fo l l owed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B) before land application. _ . Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid l eve I reaches eleva- tion 47.8 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 45.:= or before fluid depth is less than 6 feet deep (th i s prevents the less of favorable bacteria) 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the reCommended maximum application rate is 0.4 inch per hour. F. Keep vegetation on the embankment and area's adjacent to the lagoon mowed annual I y. Vegetation should be fert i l i zed as needed to maintain a vigokous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rod nts and estate l i sh in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. 8. The Clean Water- Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United :Mates. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility fbr enforcing th io law. _ -- . � �_-.�:.�. .- :•�� ti:,: _ ,�,�'-�,;- • _ ..-.,:.,<.-• •�`: ''-_. -� :; _ - . �.. .. ... - ...... �. ...ter ,,.,.•... :t 77111717 i 1 z 1117 1 1. n : F All Tf: i — s : — � t x } : _ a. ; . wizu AS INT ' � t r }-- 6�•-as-r-__ �:. ---. ---�.� -� -- -�- - --� � --�Y�3:----- . __. .�s3�►z•-.-�._ .:: �- . . a1, L Z 1 1.__. ___ - - - - - - - - .I Ni~5T .

V..nd0vf or< I U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE BC-ECS-108 Soil Conservation Service February 1982 Information Sheet SMALL GRAIN MULCH WITH MULCH BETTING Mulch is needed to conserve moisture, prevent surface compaction and crusting, reduce runoff and erosion, control weeds, and to help establish plant cover. Generally, wheat straw is preferred over oat straw or hay. Oat straw frequently contains more viable seeds and there is a greater chance of noxious weeds in hay than in straw. Spread mulch at the rate of 1 to 2 tons per acre, depending on the site conditions. Gently sloping and fertile sites planted at the best time for the species may only need the lower rate. Mulch may be spread by hand or blower --type spreading equip- ment. Apply mulch uniformly so that about 25 percent of the ground surface is visible.- This will allow young seedlings to emerge. Mulch Netting -- A commercially available mulch netting which comes in 7.5, 10, 12 and 15 foot widths is widely used. This plastic biodegradable netting is anchored by steel staples. Netting should be placed tightly on top of the mulch on a smooth surface to prevent water flow under the netting and mulch. Cover at least the critical flow area of waterways. Successful anchoring of mulch netting with steel staples can be accomplished by the following method: 1. Space staples on each edge and 2 to 3 feet apart across width of netting. 2. Each succeeding row of staples should be spaced from 5 to 6 feet apart along the length of netting. Staples may be offset in every other row to improve anchoring. 3. Anale into soil so that top of staple leans upstream. This helps to stabilize staple anchoring against water force. 4. Staples need to be placed in all low areas. 0 U. �: DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Soil Conservation Service TREATMENT ON CRITICAL EROSION AREAS WITH PERMANENT GROUND COVER NC-190-111 Rev. March 1990 A critical erosion area is any eroding, sediment -producing area such as excessively eroding cropland, cuts, fills, streambanks, landfills, roadbanks, dams, spillways, borrow areas, and denuded or gullied areas where vegetative stabilization is difficult by ordinary methods. Stabilizing these areas will reduce damage from sediment and runoff to downstream areas, and improve wildlife habitat and visual resources. Annual soil erosion in excess of 18 to 20 tons per acre on cropland is critical erosion for' most North Carolina soils. SOILS i-• _ - e A 2. Cut and fill slopes are usually difficult areas to stabilize and quickly develop erosion problems when left untreated. Usually the soil material on which seeding or planting is to be done is infertile, poor in structure and aggregation, low in organic matter and may be highly acid. This material is highly susceptible to erosion due to slow water intake and rapid runoff. To aid in overcoming these conditions, organic matter can be applied in the form of manure, lime applied where needed, and appropriate commercial fertilizers added. On most -sites, four inches of loamy topsoil applied to the site before seeding enhances establishment of ground cover and minimizes maintenance. SITE. PREPARATION Where equipment will travel over the site during planting ar_d/or for mainte- nance after establishment, slopes should be no steeper than 3:1. Where practical, fill and shape gullied areas._ Install necessary, water control measures such as diversions, waterways or outlets, subsurface (tile) drainage and terraces. Remove all debris, such as stones, tree stumps, etc., that may interfere with seeding and maintenance operations. SEEDBED PREPARATION Scarify surface to a depth of at least four inches with a disk or other suitable method. In some situations, such as drainage ditch banks, spoil banks, etc., scarification can be excluded if lime, fertilizer, and seed are applied to the roughened surface within one or two days after earth moving. LI`!E AND FERTILIZER The amount, timing, and method of application- of like and fertilizer materials are very site specific. These are to be dzte=ined by the person providing assistance from the SCS office, in accorda-ce with guidance in 34?-II (May 1988) of the Field Office Technical Guide. PLANT SELECTION AND SPECIFICATIONS Select plants which are best suited. In making the selection, keep in mind the plants' characteristics, climatic adaptation., the intended use, and level of maintenance required. Suggested time of seeding, rates of seed and mixtures for specific uses should be obtained from the soil conservationist. Whenever available, certified seed tested within six months before seeding should be used. Legumes should be scarified, if necessary, and inoculated with the proper strain of nitrogen --fixing bacteria before seeding. When grass is established by using stolons (sprigs or runners), use precaution to make certain only fresh, moist planting material is used. SEEDING OR PLANTING Uniformly apply seed with a drill, cultipacker seeder or hydroseeder. Seed may also be broadcast by using a whirlwind or cyclone seeder or by hand. Cover the seed 1/4 to 1 inch deep, depending on the size of the seed, and firm the soil except where a cultipacker or hydroseeder.is used. MULCHING Mulching is a very important step in establishing vegetation on critical areas. Mulch will help hold moisture, protect soil from erosion, hold seed in place, and keep soil temperatures more constant. It should be applied uniformly by mechanical means or by hand. Some visible through the mulch. Hay or straw or other mulching newly seeded areas. Most mulch materials must be tied down by anchoring or pressing into spray, peg and twine, or other methods may be used. MA TNTF.WANrF bare soil should still be fibrous mulches are best for are subject to blowing and the soil. Netting, asphalt Lime and fertilizer should be applied under a regular program based on soil fertility test and the use and general appearance of the vegetative cover. In the absence of a soil test, the following are suggested lime and fertilizer rates: One to two tons of limestone per acre every three to five years, and at least 40 pounds each of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (400 lbs. of 10-10-10 or equivalent) per acre annually. Nitrogen may be reduced one-half or more if legumes are established alone or with grasses. Care should be taken not to damage the vegetation mechanically through use of improper mowing equipment or by too frequent and/or close mowing. - - � .. -------'—."---`-- - _. - --..... ....... .. .. _. ::.�. _, _._.-.. __. -.ram --_--,.. - - - - --• - - � .. _ -' - .....-'--�...._.�.__,.z3��w�..NoDBI_�....�Zfo.��___�•_3cQR�- ._:..� ..a.,, _ _��._�3-�-----_._-.:_:.__--_--- ---_Oj _:_... . . ^YJ ..., —_-.. .. _.. - �- _ .. .. _—. -- _—._.` —._ _�____ ..,.ems.-•� — ----`•------"----- ... _ . _ -- .h '....... 0 S'L kk � SON min Iip I !

Less than 19 inches of freeboard was observed in the lagoon. Additionally, the cover crop is overgrown and has, slot of weeds. The following corrective actions should be taken: The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) guidelines for Best Management Practices require that animal operations maintain at least one foot of freeboard, plus additional storage to contain the rainfall from a 25 year 24 hour storm event. This totals approximately 19 inches of required lagoon freeboard. The lagoon should be pumped down and spray irrigated on a suitable crop cover to maintain at least 19 inches of freeboard. The cover crop needs to be cut and harvested to facilitate uptake of the irrigated waste. To remain a deemed permitted facility, all corrective actions must be made within seven (7) days. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its' deemed permitted status, requiring a certified waste management plan and certification form for the facility to be submitted prior to December 31, 1997 deadline, and being required to obtain an individual non discharge permit for the facility. 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845 • Telephone 910-395-3900 • Fax 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Leroy Robinson Farm August 11, 1995 Page Two Please be aware that it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit.

Box 212 Atkinson, North Carolina 28421 Subject: Leroy Robinson Farm Facility Number 71-39 Pender County Dear Mr, Robinson: On August 7, 1995 staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Environmental Management inspected your animal operation and the lagoon serving this operation. Less than 19 inches of freeboard was observed in the lagoon. Additionally, the cover crop is overgrown and has alot of weeds. The following corrective actions should be taken: The Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS) guidelines for Best Management Practices require that animal operations maintain at least one foot of freeboard, plus additional storage to contain the rainfall from a 25 year 24 hour storm event. This totals approximately 19 inches of required lagoon freeboard. The lagoon should be pumped down and spray irrigated on a suitable crop cover to maintain at least 19 inches of freeboard. The cover crop needs to be cut and harvested to facilitate uptake of the irrigated waste. To remain a deemed permitted facility, all corrective actions must be made within seven (7) days. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its' deemed permitted status, requiring a certified waste management plan and certification form for the facility to be submitted prior to December 31, 1997 deadline, and being required to obtain an individual non discharge permit for the facility. 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 29405-3845 • Telephone 910-395-3900 0 Fax 910-350-2004 An Equal opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Leroy Robinson Farm August 11, 1995 Page Two Please be aware that it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit.

Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director December 9, 1993 Leroy Robinson P.O. Box 212 Atkinson NC 28421 Dear Mr. Robinson: This is to 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 (919) 733-5083. cSincerely, U� Steve Tedder, Chief Water Quality Section P.O.
