Narrative
The_Western North Carolina Regional Livestock Center is a new facility that is under construction (as of
January 2011). The projected start-up date is April 1, 201 L This is a grant funded project where the
producers own the market. A board of directors oversees the operation of the market. Mr. John Queen,
from Southeast Livestock Exchange, has been selected as the operator of the market.
The facility conducts an auction one day per week (Monday). Animals will be on-site on the day -before,
the day -of and the day -after the sale. The facility will receive cattle on Sunday afternoon and Monday
morning. The sale is on Monday. Animals will be loaded out on Monday afternoon and Tuesday.
The facility is designed to hold a maximum of 700 beef stocker/feeder cattle. The entire facility is
covered and collects no rainfall or runoff as part of the manure management system. Manure will be
handled as a solid material. Surface -scraped manure will be stockpiled under cover and land applied to
fields in the Waste Plan that are off-site.
The livestock facility is located at 474 Stock Drive, Canton, N.C. 28716, and the land application site is
approximately three miles away at 284 Caring Place Loop, Clyde, N.C. 28721.
Manure volume calculations:
From NRCS 633 Waste Utilization Standard - Beef (Stocker) Paved Surface Scraped Manure
Volume = 3.1 Tons/head/year
(Animals on site 3 out of 7 days per week)
3.1 t/hd/yr x 317 = 1.3 3 t/hd/yr
(700 animal capacity)
1.33 t/hd/yr x 700 hd = 931 tons/year of manure generated.
Application method = broadcast with solid spreader.

The soils at the land application site are classified as Udorthents (Ud). Soils from the surrounding
landscape are classified as Evard and have been used as fill to level and create agricultural fields at the
site. Based on the recommendation of the local NRCS soil scientist, the Evard series has been used in the

Narrative
Waste Management Plan since Udorthents are not in the Nutrient Management or PLAT database. Crop
yield data will be collected and retained to verify RYE's used for planning purposes are consistent with
on-farm yields.
Field 4 in the plan grows aflalfa. Based on the recommendations of NCDA agronomists alfalfa can
utilize 50 lbs. nitrogen per ton of dry yield. The realistic yield for alfalfa in this region is 5 to 6
tons/acre/yr. For conservative planning purposes the planner has used the N -rate for fescue hay for this
field in the plan. The PAN application rate will be more conservative than the 250 to 300 Ib. N/acre/yr
rate that potentially could be used for alfalfa. This fescue N -rate will be adequate for the alfalfa crop.
Fields I and 2 grow fescue hay and pasture. When the fields are used for pasture multiply the Fescue hay
N -rate by 0.75 to determine the rate with the 25% reduction for pasture.
A list of crops and Realistic Yield Expectations for those crops on the predominant soil type (of the
application fields) is included with this plan. Refer to this list if the crop choice for a particular field
changes. The N -rate provided by this list will indicate the maximum pounds of nitrogen per year that can
be applied to a particular crop.

The table shown below provides a summary of the crops or rotations included in this plan for each field. Realistic Yield
estimates are also provided for each crop, as well as the crop's P205 Removal Rate, The Leaching Index (LI) and the
Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) Rating are also provided for each field, where available.
If field's PLAT Rati ng is High, any planned manure application is limited to the phosphorous removal rate of the
harvested plant biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. Fields with a Very High PLAT
Rating should receive no additional applications of manure. Regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers may be
recommended in accordance with North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. The quantity of P205
applied to each crop is shown in the following table if the field's PLAT rating is High or Very High.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields oft he crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the q uantity o f so lid and 1 iquid waste that will be applied on each field in
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Nutrient Management Recommendations table shown below provides an annual summary of the nutrient
management plan developed for this operation. This table provides a nutrient balance for the listed fields and crops
for each year of the plan. Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient
requirements and soil test results. The quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified.
The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity
of other nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other
byproducts are utilized to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management plans may require that the
application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of
this nutrient are detected in a field. In such situations. additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources
may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

The Required Soil Test Values shown in the following table provide a summary of recommended actions that should be taken if soil tests indicate
excessive levels of capper or zinc. Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper
can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must he used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can
be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to he applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85.
By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil
sample. Application of lime at recommended rates is necessary to maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production .

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that 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 the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall tie applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications 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 eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
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).
997593 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 1/6/2011 Specification Pate 1

Y.
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 and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner
that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit
growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be
considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy: -
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with
the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is
applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least
50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995,
shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
.... ...... - .. ......... --------------------- -- --- -- - -------
997593 Database Version 3.I Date Printed: 1/6/2011 Specification Paze 2

15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on
crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant
with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level
between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
997593 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 1/6/2011 Specification Pau 3

22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT?
The conservation practice, Nutrient
Management, is managing the amount,
source, placement, form and timing of the
application of nutrients and soil amendments
to achieve realistic production goals, while
minimizing nutrient movement to surface or
ground waters. The practice,. -Waste
Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as
manure or wastewater in an environmentally
sound manner. These practices are jointly
accomplished through the development of a
Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan,
which is normally part of a broader
Conservation Plan that addresses multiple
natural resource concerns on the land.
PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT
and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES
Your nutrient managementlwaste utilization
plan is intended to accomplish one or more of
the following objectives:
• To budget nutrients for plant production.
• To properly utilize manure or organic by-
products as a plant nutrient source.
• To minimize the delivery of agricultural
nutrients to surface and ground water
resources.
• To maintain or improve the physical,
chemical, and biological condition of the
soil.
• To utilize agricultural wastes for
livestock feed or as an energy source.

8. This Job Sheet (or comparable
information), that provides the following
• General requirements of this practice,
as well as additional requirements to
meet the natural resource protection
purposes listed above.
• Additional considerations specific to
this plan.
• Operation and maintenance
information associated with this
practice.
Because this Nutrient Management Plan
includes agricultural organic sources,
additional items are required in the plan to
ensure proper waste utilization:
• Waste Utilization Agreement (if
applicable)
• Waste Utilization Third Party
Agreement (if applicable)
• Additional engineering design and
operating information forwaste storage
structures, transport, and application
system, as applicable. These designs,
and the instructions for operating these
structures, is an integral component of
your overall Nutrient Management/
Waste Utilization Plan.
• Emergency Action Plan to prevent
overtopping or other discharges from
storage structures or facilities, as
applicable.
This plan was developed based on the current
NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal,
state, or local regulations or policies.
Changes in laws or regulations may
necessitate a revision of the plan.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE
UTILIZATION
General
All manure and organic residues must be
applied according to a nutrient management
plan (see the following section, "BASIC
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003)
REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT")
You are required to acquire and comply
with all federal, state, or local perrnit
requirements related to the handling and
application of manure or organic
materials.
The nutrient management/waste
utilization plan must address all organic
waste generated at or brought to the
facility. A Waste Utilization Third Party
Agreement must exist to address all
organic waste not handled by the nutrient
management/waste utilization plan.
Manure or organic wastes will not be
applied to the following areas:
• surface waters,
• wetlands, unless constructed as a
component in a waste treatment
system,
• soils subject to frequent flooding
during the period when flooding is
expected,
• frozen, snow-covered, or saturated
soils,
• within 200 feet of a dwelling other
than those owned by the producer,
• within 100 feet of a well,
• within 25 feet of surface waters, or
• within any other setbacks as identified
by federal, state, or local laws or
regulations (e.g. NC General Statute
prevents swine lagoon effluent from
being applied within 75 feet of a
residential property boundary or
perennial stream or river if the facility
was sited on or after October 1995.)
Manure or organic wastes will be applied
in a manner not to reach surface waters,
wetlands (unless constructed as a
component in a waste treatment system),
property owned by others, or public right-
of-way.
Sludge that accumulates in waste storage
structures must be analyzed prior to land
Page 2

application. Adequate provisions (available
land and/or third party manure agreements)
must exist to ensure sludge is applied in
adherence to all nutrient application
requirements. All federal and state guidance
regarding the proper testing, handling,
planning, and application of sludge must be
followed for regulated operations.
Since compliance with all applicable North
Carolina laws is the responsibility of the
producer, you should consult the most current
version of the Guidance Memo for
Implementing the Environmental Management
Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste
Management for questions_
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED
If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other
organic residues used for feedstock must be
handled in a manner to minimize
contamination and preserve its feed value.
Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be
covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall
develop rations that utilize animal wastes.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY
If your facility is to be used for energy
production, all energy producing components
of the system are included in the Nutrient
Management/Waste Utilization Plan and
provisions for the utilization of residues of
energy production identified. Your Nutrient
Management Plan includes the use of these
residues, if applicable.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT
General
Application of nutrients must comply with
applicable Federal, state, and local laws
regulations.
The realistic yield expectations (RYES) in
this plan are based on one or more of the
following:
Default values approved by the N.C.
Interagency Nutrient Management
Committee that incorporate soil
productivity information, yield data,
and research with North Carolina
soils, and cropping systems.
Additional information on the default
values may be found at:
www.soil.ncsu,edulnmpincnmWgfindex.htm
• Documented actual yield data from
the site, determined by the average of
the highest three yields of the last five
consecutive specific crop harvests.
(For forage crops, determine the
average of the highest three years of
the last five years.)
+ A fertilization rate recommended by
North Carolina State University may
be used in cases where no yield data
or approved RYE values exist for a
crop.
• An RYE inferred from a similar crop
on a soil with similar physical and
chemical features may be used for
new crops or in the absence of other
RYE data. This inferred RYE may
ONLY be specified by a certified
Nutrient Management planner.
Erosion, runoff, and water management
controls have been planned, as needed,
on fields that receive nutrients.
Soil Testing
This nutrient management plan has been
developed based on current soil test
results (no older than three years).
Soil samples must be collected and
all prepared in accordance with North
and Carolina State University or the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services (NCDABCS)
Agronomic Division standards or
recommendations.
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003) Page 3

Soil test analyses can be performed by any
laboratory or program that is certified by the
North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of
Water Quality, Laboratory Section.
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the
Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing.
Growers who utilize other laboratories must
request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology
to ensure the test results are compatible with
North Carolina's nutrient management
planning and assessment tools. For statewide
consistency, all laboratories used must
provide fertilization recommendations using
guidelines and methodologies as referenced
at the NCDA&CS website:
www.ncagr.comlagronomilobook.htm
Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory
that is supported by field research within the
state.
Soil testing shall include analysis for all
nutrients for which specific information is
needed to develop the nutrient plan.
Plant Tissue Testing
Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall
be done in accordance with North Carolina
State University or NCDA&CS standards or
recommendations.
Manure Testing
Nutrient values of manure and organic by-
products shall be established for planning
purposes based on laboratory analysis,
acceptable default values, or historic records
for the operation.
When determining actual application rates, a
laboratory analysis is required. State
regulations require that waste be tested within
60 days of utilization for some operations. In
the case of daily spreading, the waste must be
sampled and analyzed at least once a year.
Acceptable laboratories include the
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003)
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others
certified by the NCDENR.
Field Risk Assessment
A field -specific assessment of the
potential for phosphorus transport from
each field (or groups of similar fields)
have been conducted, using the North
Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment
Tool (PLAT)
PLAT assesses the potential for
phosphorus (P) to be transported from the
site to surface water through each of the
four primary loss pathways:
• sediment -bound P transported
through erosion,
• soluble P transported through
surface runoff,
• soluble P leached through the soil
profile, and
• non -incorporated source P
transported through surface
runoff.
Based on the assessment of each loss
pathway, PLAT produces a single rating
for each field. As shown below, this
rating will identify whether nitrogen or
phosphorus shall be the rate -determining
element in developing the planned
application rate for manure.
PLAT Rating
1 Nutrient Application Criteria
LOW
Nitrogen -based manure
application.
MEDIUM
Nitrogen -based manure
application.
HIGH
Manure application limited to
phosphorus removal from site
in harvestedplant biomass.
VERY HIGH
No additional manure
application to be specified in
plan for the site.
On all sites, regardless of the PLAT
rating, starter fertilizers may be
recommended in accordance with NCSU
guidelines or recommendations.
Page 4

In some cases, specific conservation practices
that reduce the potential for phosphorus
transport have been incorporated into PLAT.
Examples include buffers or filter strips,
ponds, water table management, and residue
management and conservation tillage.
Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or
planned, have been incorporated into your
PLAT analysis. This information is shown on
the PLAT results enclosed. Because the
management of the site actually affects the
PLAT rating, all practices identified on the
PLAT analysis (including any required to
achieve the specified erosion rate) must be
either already installed or included in a
Conservation Plan for the Nutrient
Management Plan to be approved.
Nutrient Application Rates
Recommended nutrient application rates are
based on North Carolina State University or
NCDA&CS recommendations that consider
current soil test results, RYEs; and
management.
Liming material shall be applied as needed to
adjust soil pH to the specific range required by
the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum
availability and utilization of nutrients.
The application amount and rate (in/hr) for
liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation)
shall not result in runoff from the site. The
application shall not exceed the field capacity
of the soil.
The planned rates of nutrient application are
shown on the attached sheets. These rates
have been computed as follows:
Nitrogen Application - When the plan is
nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or
Medium), the application rate of manure or
organic by-products shall be based on the
recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE
for the site (or a rate recommended by
NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops
without established RYEs). This may
result in an application rate for other
nutrients that exceeds the soil test
recommendation.
When the plan is being implemented
on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT
rating of High or Very High), manure
or other organic by-products shall be
applied at rates consistent with the
phosphorus application guidance
below. In such situations, an
additional nitrogen application from
non-organic sources may be required
to supply nitrogen at the rate
recommended by the RYE.
• Within the limits allowed by PLAT,
manure or other organic by-products
may be applied on soybeans at rates
equal to the estimated removal of
nitrogen in harvested plant biomass.
All nitrogen rates for hay production
are for pure grass stands. Due to the
nutrient recycling by grazing animals,
the planned nitrogen rate per unit
yield for hay crops shall be reduced
by 25% for the portion of the expected
yield that is removed through grazing.
Phosphorus Application — When
manure or other organic by-products
are used, the planned rates of
phosphorus application shall be based
on the PLAT rating for the site, as
follows -
Low or Medium Rating — The
planned manure or organic by-
product application rate is based
on the nitrogen needs of the crop.
High Rating — The planned
manure or organic by-product
application rate is limited to the
phosphorus removal rate of the
harvested plant biomass.
Very High Rating — No additional
manure or organic by-product
application is specified in the plan.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
MINIMIZING DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO
SURFACE AND GROUND WATER
In areas that have been identified as impaired
with agricultural nutrients being a likely
source, an assessment shall be completed of
the potential for nitrogen or phosphorus
transport from the site. (The streamstwater
bodies in this category are listed in the USDA-
NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, Section
1.1
NO
This nutrient management plan IS NOT in
an area where surface waters are
impaired, with agricultural nutrients
identified as a likely source. The Leaching
Index (LI) is not required.
❑ YES
This nutrient management plan IS in an
area where surface waters are impaired,
with agricultural nutrients identified as a
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003)
likely source. The Leaching Index (LI)
is included in this plan.
While the results of the LI does not affect
your planned nutrient application rates,
some additional conservation practices
may be specified in the plan to reduce the
risk of nutrient movement from the field, if
applicable.
IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING
NUTRIENTS
Nitrogen and phosphorus are water
soluble elements and either or both may
be components of organic and inorganic
fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can
move with water as leachate down
through the soil, or over the soil surface
as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and
phosphorus exist in different forms and
may move through different transport
processes on the same site, they both
can have detrimental effects on both
surface and shallow ground water quality.
As an example, excess nutrients can
result in accelerated eutrophication with
severe algal blooms and fish kilts.
Because of the topography, hydrology,
and other factors in the state, the
environmental problems from excess
nutrients reaching surface water may not
be exhibited near the contributing source,
but rather create water quality problems
far downstream. Consequently, the
Neuse River Basin, Tar -Pamlico Basin,
the Chowan River, the watershed of the
B'Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the
watershed of the New River in Onslow
County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive
waters in North Carolina.
Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or
organic material is transformed into
nitrate and can move with the water
moving downward into the shallow ground
water and eventually to surface waters.
(Relatively small amounts of nitrogen
reach our surface waters through rainfall
runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a
Page 7

On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating,
starter fertilizers containing nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium may be
recommended in accordance with North
Carolina State University guidelines or
recommendations.
A single application of phosphorus applied
as manure or organic by-product may be
made at a rate equal to the recommended
phosphorus application or estimated
phosphorus removal in harvested plant
biomass for the crop rotation or multiple
years in the crop sequence.
When such single applications are
made, the rate shall:
• not exceed the recommended
nitrogen application rate during the
year of application, or
• not exceed the estimated nitrogen
removal in harvested plant bio-
mass during the year of application
when there is no recommended
nitrogen application,.or
• not be made on sites with a Very
High PLAT risk rating.
Potassium Application -- Planned
potassium application rates should
match the soil test recommended rates
as closely as possible. (This is
particularly critical in situations where a
potentially harmful nutrient imbalance
in crops or forages may occur, such as
grass tetany). When using manure or
other organic sources, the addition of
potassium from non-organic sources
may be required.
• Other Plant Nutrients - The planned
rates of application of other nutrients if
applicable are consistent with North
Carolina State University or the
NCDA&CS guidelines or
recommendations.
Nutrient Application Timing
Timing of nutrient application shall
correspond as closely as possible with
plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while
considering cropping system limitations,
weather and climatic conditions, and field
accessibility. Nutrients shall not be
applied to frozen, snow-covered, or
saturated soil.
Manure or organic by-products shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to
planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
For nutrients applied through irrigation
systems, application equipment should be
properly calibrated to ensure uniform
distribution of material at planned rates.
Plan Review and Revision Period
A thorough review and revision (if
needed) of the nutrient management plan
shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not
to exceed five years.
Heavy Metals Monitoring
For animal waste, including sludge, zinc
and copper concentrations shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites for
application shall be sought when these
metals approach excessive
concentrations. The following criteria and
actions are provided:

required part of the nutrient management plan
in some areas of the state with surface water
impairments. The LI uses soils information
and local climate data to assess the potential
hazard from leaching of nutrients. The results
of the LI analysis and recommended actions
are included in your nutrient management
plan, if applicable.
Phosphorus: Research in recent decades
indicates that, with high soil phosphorus
levels, phosphorus has more potential to be
transported off-site than recognized in the
past. Phosphorus can be transported in
several ways: (1) attached to soil particles
leaving the field through erosion, (2) in soluble
form leaving the field in surface runoff, and (3)
in soluble form leaching downward through
the soil profile, and eventually into surface
water. Unlike nitrogen, the most likely
transport pathway for phosphorus varies by
site, and depends upon such factors as soil
erosion rate, soil phosphorus levels, texture of
soils, existence of buffers, and other factors.
In N.C., PLAT is the tool used to assess
potential excessive phosphorus losses. The
results of the PLAT analysis and
recommended actions are included in your
nutrient management plan, if applicable.
If a site receives a PLAT rating of Low or
Medium, then applying manure at rates based
on the nitrogen needs of the crop is allowed.
It is important to realize that this may result in
phosphorus being applied at rates that
significantly exceed the crop's phosphorus
removal rate. In these cases, the planned
nutrient application rate is not sustainable,
and eventually a PLAT rating of High may be
reached.
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
You are responsible for safe operation and
maintenance of this practice, including all
equipment. The following Operation &
Maintenance should be conducted:
1 Review the plan annually to determine if
adjustments or modifications to the plan
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003)
are needed. (The S.B. 1217
interagency group guidelines
accepted by the N.C. Division of
Water Quality for .0200 operations
specify a plan revision when there are
changes in crops or cropping patterns
that utilize more than 25 percent of
the nitrogen generated by the
operation.) As a minimum, nutrient
management plans shall be
thoroughly reviewed every five years
and revised if necessary. The next
review will be performed in
2. Protect fertilizer and organic by-
product storage facilities from weather
and accidental leakage or spillage.
3. Ensure proper calibration of
application equipment to ensure
uniform distribution of material at
planned rates.
4. Inspect and maintain the equipment
and facilities used to implement the
Nutrient Management/Waste
Utilization Plan regularly. Any needed
repairs should be made in a timely
manner.
5. Review the Emergency Action Plan, if
applicable, annually.
6. Records should be maintained for five
years, or for a period as required by
other Federal, state, or local
ordinances, or program or contract
requirements. To ensure adequate
information exists to support sound
nutrient management, NRCS
recommends the following records be
included:
• Soil test results and
recommendations for nutrient
application,
• Quantities, analyses and sources
of nutrients applied (When the
actual rates used exceed the
recommended and planned rates
on inorganic fertilizer plans,
Page 8

records should indicate the reasons for
the differences, e.g. inability to acquire
custom blended fertilizer.)
• Dates and method of nutrient
applications,
• Crops planted, planting and harvest
dates, yields, and crop residues
removed,
• Results of water, plant, and organic by-
product analyses, and
• Dates of review and person performing
the review, and recommendations that
resulted from the review.
NOTE: State laws or regulations may
define record-keeping requirements for
some operations.
7. Ensure that workers are protected from
and avoid unnecessary contact with
inorganic fertilizers and organic by-
products. Protection should include the
use of protective clothing when working
with plant nutrients. Extra caution must be
taken when handling ammonia sources of
nutrients, or when dealing with organic
wastes stored in poorly ventilated
enclosures.
8. Properly dispose of material generated by
the cleaning of nutrient application
equipment. Excess material should be
collected and stored or field applied in an
appropriate manner. Excess material
should not be applied on areas of high
potential risk for runoff or leaching.
9. Properly dispose of or recycle nutrient
containers according to state and local
guidelines or regulations.

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1-3, 1-5
Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains
In the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Plant
1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and
information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for
your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be
applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 314 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when
corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage. Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs nitrogen per ton of expected
yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be
reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and
expected yield. Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus
is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the
growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is
essential in profitable corn silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1-1, 1-2, 1-4
Fescue: Mountains
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Mountains, tall fescue can be planted July 25 to Aug. 20 (best) and Mar. 20 to Apr. 20. For
pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 Ib/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 Ib/ac. seed. Use certified seed
to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in
mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance time, phosphorus, and potassium
recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for
mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 Ib/ac. N to
pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% to 50% for grazing. Apply N Mar. 10 to
Apr. 20 and Aug. 10 to Sept. 10, with equal amounts in each window. In higher mountain pastures spring
N can be delayed until after the early Bush of seedheads has been mowed or grazed off. Refer to NCSU
Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for
additional information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance -

Small Grain Silage, Piedmont and Mountains
In the Piedmont, small grain silage should be planted from October 10 to November 3. In the Mountains,
small grain silage should be planted from September 15 to October 3 I. Plant 18 to 22 seed/drill row foot
at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the
optimum time frame. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current
NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide".Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when
planting no -till. Adequate depth control when planting the small grain is essential. Review the NCSU
Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety
with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply approximately 30 lbs N at planting.
Increase N at planting by 20% for no -till. Phosphorus and potassium should be applied according to a
soil test at this time. The rernaining N should be applied during February -March. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. N
per ton of expected yield. Tl-te total N is dependent on soil type and expected yield. Plant samples can be
analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the small grain. Timely management
of diseases, weeds and insects are essential for profitable small grain silage production. Plant a cover
crop after harvest.

Narrative
The,Westem North Carolina Regional Livestock Center is a new facility that is under construction (as of
January 2011). The projected start-up date is April 1, 2011. This is a grant funded project where the
producers own the market. A board of directors oversees the operation of the market. Mr. John Queen,
from Southeast Livestock Exchange, has been selected as the operator of the market.
The facility conducts an auction one day per week (Monday). Animals will be on-site on the day -before,
the day -of and the day -after the sale. The facility will receive cattle on Sunday afternoon and Monday
morning. The sale is on Monday. Animals will be loaded out on Monday afternoon and Tuesday.
The facility is designed to hold a maximum of 700 beef stocker/feeder cattle. The entire facility is
covered and collects no rainfall or runoff as part of the manure management system. Manure will be
handled as a solid material. Surface -scraped manure will be stockpiled under cover and land applied to
fields in the Waste Plan that are off-site.
The livestock facility is located at 474 Stock Drive, Canton, N.C. 28716, and the land application site is
approximately three miles away at 284 Caring Place Loop, Clyde, N.C. 28721.
Manure volume calculations:
From NRCS 633 Waste Utilization Standard - Beef (Stocker) Paved Surface Scraped Manure
Volume = 3.1 Tons/head/year
(Animals on site 3 out of 7 days per week)
3.1 tJhd/yr x 3/7 = 1.33 t/hd/yr
(700 animal capacity)
1.33 t/hd/yr x 700 hd = 931 tons/year of manure generated.
Application method = broadcast with solid spreader.

The soils at the land application site are classified as Udorthents (Ud). Soils from the surrounding
landscape are classified as Evard and have been used as fill to level and create agricultural fields at the
site. Based on the recommendation of the IocaI NRCS soil scientist, the Evard series has been used in the
Pmricw Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 0 1 -06-2011 Narrative Page I of 2

Narrative
Waste Management Plan since Udorthents are not in the Nutrient Management or PLAT database. Crop
yield data will be collected and retained to verify RYE's used for planning purposes are consistent with
on-farm yields.
Field 4 in the plan grows aflalfa. Based on the recommendations of NCDA agronomists alfalfa can
utilize 50 lbs. nitrogen per ton of dry yield. The realistic yield for alfalfa in this region is 5 to 6
tons/acre/yr. For conservative planning purposes the planner has used the N -rate for fescue hay for this
field in the plan. The PAN application rate will be more conservative than the 250 to 300 lb. N/acre/yr
rate that potentially could be used for alfalfa. This fescue N -rate will be adequate for the alfalfa crop.
Fields 1 and 2 grow fescue hay and pasture. When the fields are used for pasture multiply the Fescue hay
N -rate by 0.75 to determine the rate with the 25% reduction for pasture.
A list of crops and Realistic Yield Expectations for those crops on the predominant soil type (of the
application fields) is included with this plan. Refer to this list if the crop choice for a particular field
changes. The N -rate provided by this list will indicate the maximum pounds of nitrogen per year that can
be applied to a particular crop.

The table shown below provides a summary of the crops or rotations included in this plan for each field. Realistic Yield
estimates are also provided for each crop, as well as the crop's P205 Removal Rate. The Leaching Index (Ll) and the
Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) Rating are also provided for each field, where available.
If field's PLAT Rating is High, any planned manure application is limited to the phosphorous removal rate of the
harvested plant biomass forthe crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. Fields with a Very High PLAT
Rating should receive no additional applications of manure. Regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers maybe
recommended in accordance with North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. The quantity of P205
applied to each crop is shown in the following table if the field's PLAT rating is High or Very High.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of
cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements,
and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake.
This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or
other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual From previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in
order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is
included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

The Nutrient Management Recommendations table shown below provides an annual summary of the nutrient
management plan developed for this operation. This table provides a nutrient balance for the I isted fields and crops
for each year of the plan. Required nutrients are based on the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient
requirements and soil test results. The quantity of nutrient supplied by each source is also identified.
The total quantity of nitrogen applied to each crop should not exceed the required amount. However, the quantity
of other nutrients applied may exceed their required amounts. This most commonly occurs when manure or other
byproducts are utilized to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop. Nutrient management pians may require that the
application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of
this nutrient are detected in a field. In such situations, additional nitrogen applications from nonorganic sources
may be required to supply the recommended amounts of nitrogen.

The Required Soil Test Values shown in the following table provide a summary of recommended actions that should betaken if soil tests indicate
excessive levels of copper or zinc. Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper
can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can
be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85.
By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal.
In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil
sample. Application of lime at recommended rates is necessary to maintain soil pH in the optimum range for crop production .

Required Specifications For Animal Waste Management
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift,
manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during
operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that 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 the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an
agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity,
allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an
update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the
operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application,
receiving crop type, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs
for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical
data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of applications 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 eroding at more than 5 tons per
acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter
strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field
Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste
application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift
from the land application field.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste
will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is
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).
9975933 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 1/6/2011 Specification Pap -e 1

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 and flies.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall
events, or when the soil surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner
that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit
growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be
considered.
10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring
planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient
loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable
winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy. -
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with
the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is
applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least
50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste,
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995,
shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other
than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and
public right-of-ways.
997593 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 1/612011 Specification Paee 2

•
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways,
or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be
applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been
approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly
into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be
applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift
from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets,
sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management
system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all
disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas
shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where
considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and
accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the
owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan"
which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and
erosion.
19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected
on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular
maintenance checklist should be kept on site.
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other
crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on
crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant
with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste
treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level
between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum
storage volume for waste storage ponds.
..._........ -_ .---- _....... -

• 0
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen
shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require
waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower
application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the
soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and
maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis
records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina
regulations.

Farm:
WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT?
The conservation practice, Nutrient
Management, is managing the amount,
source, placement, form and timing of the
application of nutrients and soil amendments
to achieve realistic production goals, while
minimizing nutrient movement to surface or
ground waters. The practice, -Waste
Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as
manure or wastewater in an environmentally
sound manner. These practices are jointly
accomplished through the development of a
Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan,
which is normally part of a broader
Conservation Plan that addresses multiple
natural resource concerns on the land.
PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT
and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES
Your nutrient management/waste utilization
plan is intended to accomplish one or more of
the following objectives:
• To budget nutrients for plant production.
• To properly utilize manure or organic by-
products as a plant nutrient source.
• To minimize the delivery of agricultural
nutrients to surface and ground water
resources.
• To maintain or improve the physical,
chemical, and biological condition of the
soil.
Tract: ,23S� Date: _/ 1_L / 011
• To utilize agricultural wastes for
livestock feed or as an energy source.
CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT / WASTE UTILIZATION
PLAN
The information provided in this Job
Sheet and the attachments meet the
minimum requirements for a Nutrient
Management Plan for USDA-NRCS
purposes. This Nutrient Management
Plan includes:
1 A plan map and soils map for the area
planned (these may be part of the
overall Conservation Plan).
2. Location of designated sensitive areas
or resources (streams, wells,
sinkholes, etc.) and any associated
nutrient application setbacks, etc.
3. Your planned crop rotation.
4. Results of soil, plant, water tests.
5. Results from Phosphorus Loss
Assessment Tool (PLAT) or Leaching
Index (LI) as required.
6. Realistic yield expectations for the
crops in the rotation, and their source
if other than default values approved
for N.C.
7. Recommended nutrient application
rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and
potassium, as well as timing, form,
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003) Page l

and method of application and
incorporation, if applicable.
8. This Job Sheet (or comparable
information), that provides the following:
• General requirements of this practice,
as well as additional requirements to
meet the natural resource protection
purposes listed above.
• Additional considerations specific to
this plan.
• Operation and maintenance
information associated with this
practice.
Because this Nutrient Management Plan
includes agricultural organic sources,
additional items are required in the plan to
ensure proper waste utilization:
• Waste Utilization Agreement (if
applicable)
• Waste Utilization Third Party
Agreement (if applicable)
• Additional engineering design and
operating information for.waste storage
structures, transport, and application
system, as applicable. These designs,
and the instructions for operating these
structures, is an integral component of
your overall Nutrient Management/
Waste Utilization Plan.
• Emergency Action Plan to prevent
overtopping or other discharges from
storage structures or facilities, as
applicable.
This plan was developed based on the current
NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal,
state, or local regulations or policies.
Changes in laws or regulations may
necessitate a revision of the plan.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE
UTILIZATION
General
All manure and organic residues must be
applied according to a nutrient management
plan (see the following section, "BASIC
•
REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT')
You are required to acquire and comply
with all federal, state, or local permit
requirements related to the handling and
application of manure or organic
materials.
The nutrient management/waste
utilization plan must address all organic
waste generated at or brought to the

Agreement must exist to address all
organic waste not handled by the nutrient
management/waste utilization plan.
Manure or organic wastes will not be
applied to the following areas:
• surface waters,
• wetlands, unless constructed as a
component in a waste treatment
system,
• soils subject to frequent flooding
during the period when flooding is
expected,
frozen, snow-covered, or saturated

adherence to all nutrient application
requirements. All federal and state guidance
regarding the proper testing, handling,
planning, and application of sludge must be
followed for regulated operations.
Since compliance with all applicable North
Carolina laws is the responsibility of the
producer, you should consult the most current
version of the Guidance Memo for
Implementing the Environmental Management
Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste
Management for questions.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED
If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other
organic residues used for feedstock must be
handled in a manner to minimize
contamination and preserve its feed value.
Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be
covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall
develop rations that utilize animal wastes.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY
If your facility is to be used for energy
production, all energy producing components
of the system are included in the Nutrient
Management/Waste Utilization Plan and
provisions for the utilization of residues of
energy production identified. Your Nutrient
Management Plan includes the use of these
residues, if applicable.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT
General
Application of nutrients must comply with all
applicable Federal, state, and local laws and
regulations.
•
The realistic yield expectations (RYEs) in
this plan are based on one or more of the
following:
• Default values approved by the N.C.
Interagency Nutrient Management
Committee that incorporate soil
productivity information, yield data,
and research with North Carolina
soils, and cropping systems.
Additional information on the default
values may be found at:
www.soil.ncsu.edulnmpincnm%nCindex.htm
• Documented actual yield data from
the site, determined by the average of
the highest three yields of the last five
consecutive specific crop harvests.
(For forage crops, determine the
average of the highest three years of
the last five years.)
A fertilization rate recommended by
North Carolina State University may
be used in cases where no yield data
or approved RYE values exist for a
crop.
• An RYE inferred from a similar crop
on a soil with similar physical and
chemical features may be used for
new crops or in the absence of other
RYE data. This inferred RYE may
ONLY be specified by a certified
Nutrient Management planner.
Erosion, runoff, and water management
controls have been planned, as needed,
on fields that receive nutrients.
Soil Testing
This nutrient management plan has been
developed based on current soil test
results (no older than three years).
Soil samples must be collected and
prepared in accordance with North
Carolina State University or the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services (NCDA&CS)
Agronomic Division standards or
recommendations.
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003) Page 3

,. 0 •
Soil test analyses can be performed by any
laboratory or program that is certified by the
North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of
Water Quality, Laboratory Section.
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the
Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing.
Growers who utilize other laboratories must
request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology
to ensure the test results are compatible with
North Carolina's nutrient management
planning and assessment tools. For statewide
consistency, all laboratories used must
provide fertilization recommendations using
guidelines and methodologies as referenced
at the NCDA&CS website:
www.nca r.com/a ronomi/obook.htm
Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory
that is supported by field research within the
state.
Soil testing shall include analysis for all
nutrients for which specific information is
needed to develop the nutrient plan.
Plant Tissue Testing
Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall
be done in accordance with North Carolina
State University or NCDA&CS standards or
recommendations.
Manure Testing
Nutrient values of manure and organic by-
products shall be established for planning
purposes based on laboratory analysis,
acceptable default values, or historic records
for the operation.
When determining actual application rates, a
laboratory analysis is required. State
regulations require that waste be tested within
60 days of utilization for some operations. In
the case of daily spreading, the waste must be
sampled and analyzed at least once a year.
Acceptable laboratories include the
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others
certified by the NCDENR.
Field Risk Assessment
A field -specific assessment of the
potential for phosphorus transport from
each field (or groups of similar fields)
have been conducted, using the North
Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment
Tool (PLAT)
PLAT assesses the potential for
phosphorus (P) to be transported from the
site to surface water through each of the
four primary loss pathways:
• sediment -bound P transported
through erosion,
• soluble P transported through
surface runoff,
• soluble P leached through the soil
profile, and
• non -incorporated source P
transported through surface
runoff.
Based on the assessment of each loss
pathway. PLAT produces a single rating
for each field. As shown below, this
rating will identify whether nitrogen or
phosphorus shall be the rate -determining
element in developing the planned
application rate for manure.
PEAT Rating
I Nutrient licatlon Criteria
LOW
Nitrogen -based manure
application.
MEDIUM
Nitrogen -based manure

HIGH
Manure application limited to
phosphorus removal from site
in harvested plant biomass.
VERY HIGH
No additional manure
application to be specified in
plan for the site.
On all sites, regardless of the PLAT
rating, starter fertilizers may be
recommended in accordance with NCSU
guidelines or recommendations.
NC Practice Job Sheet: NC -590 (August, 2003) Page 4

In some cases, specific conservation practices
that reduce the potential for phosphorus
transport have been incorporated into PLAT.
Examples include buffers or filter strips,
ponds, water table management, and residue
management and conservation tillage.
Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or
planned, have been incorporated into your
PLAT analysis. This information is shown on
the PLAT results enclosed. Because the
management of the site actually affects the
PLAT rating, all practices identified on the
PLAT analysis (including any required to
achieve the specified erosion rate) must be
either already installed or included in a
Conservation Plan for the Nutrient
Management Plan to be approved.
Nutrient Application Rates
Recommended nutrient application rates are
based on North Carolina State University or
NCDABCS recommendations that consider
current soil test results, RYEs., and
management.
Liming material shall be applied as needed to
adjust soil pH to the specific range required by
the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum
availability and utilization of nutrients.
The application amount and rate (in/hr) for
liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation)
shall not result in runoff from the site. The
application shall not exceed the field capacity
of the soil.
The planned rates of nutrient application are
shown on the attached sheets. These rates
have been computed as follows:
Nitrogen Application - When the plan is
nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or
Medium), the application rate of manure or
organic by-products shall be based on the
recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE
for the site (or a rate recommended by
NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops
without established RYEs). This may
result in an application rate for other
nutrients that exceeds the soil test
recommendation.
When the plan is being implemented
on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT
rating of High or Very High), manure
or other organic by-products shall be
applied at rates consistent with the
phosphorus application guidance
below. In such situations, an
additional nitrogen application from
non-organic sources may be required
to supply nitrogen at the rate
recommended by the RYE.
+ Within the limits allowed by PLAT,
manure or other organic by-products
may be applied on soybeans at rates
equal to the estimated removal of
nitrogen in harvested plant biomass.
All nitrogen rates for hay production
are for pure grass stands. Due to the
nutrient recycling by grazing animals,
the planned nitrogen rate per unit
yield for hay crops shall be reduced
by 25% for the portion of the expected
yield that is removed through grazing.
Phosphorus Application — When
manure or other organic by-products
are used, the planned rates of
phosphorus application shall be based
on the PLAT rating for the site, as
follows:
Low or Medium Ratincl — The
planned manure or organic by-
product application rate is based
on the nitrogen needs of the crop.
High Rating — The planned
manure or organic by-product
application rate is limited to the
phosphorus removal rate of the
harvested plant biomass.
Very High Rating -- No additional
manure or organic by-product
application is specified in the plan.

is included in this plan.
While the results of the LI does not affect
your planned nutrient application rates,
some additional conservation practices
may be specified in the plan to reduce the
risk of nutrient movement from the field, if
applicable.
IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING
NUTRIENTS
Nitrogen and phosphorus are water
soluble elements and either or both may
be components of organic and inorganic
fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can
move with water as leachate down
through the soil, or over the soil surface
as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and
phosphorus exist in different forms and
may move through different transport
processes on the same site, they both
can have detrimental effects on both
surface and shallow ground water quality.
As an example, excess nutrients can
result in accelerated eutrophication with
severe algal blooms and fish kills.
Because of the topography, hydrology,
and other factors in the state, the
environmental problems from excess
nutrients reaching surface water may not
be exhibited near the contributing source,
but rather create water quality problems
far downstream. Consequently, the
Neuse River Basin, Tar -Pamlico Basin,
the Chowan River, the watershed of the
B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the
watershed of the New River in Onslow
County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive
waters in North Carolina.
Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or
organic material is transformed into
nitrate and can move with the water
moving downward into the shallow ground
water and eventually to surface waters.
(Relatively small amounts of nitrogen
reach our surface waters through rainfall
runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a
Page 7

n
u
On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating,
starter fertilizers containing nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium may be
recommended in accordance with North
Carolina State University guidelines or
recommendations.
A single application of phosphorus applied
as manure or organic by-product may be
made at a rate equal to the recommended
phosphorus application or estimated
phosphorus removal in harvested plant
biomass for the crop rotation or multiple
years in the crop sequence.
• When such single applications are
made, the rate shall:
• not exceed the recommended
nitrogen application rate during the
year of application, or
• not exceed the estimated nitrogen
removal in harvested plant bio-
mass during the year of application
when there is no recommended
nitrogen application,. or
♦ not be made on sites with a Very
High PLAT risk rating.
• Potassium Application — Planned
potassium application rates should
match the soil test recommended rates
as closely as possible. (This is
particularly critical in situations where a
potentially harmful nutrient imbalance
in crops or forages may occur, such as
grass tetany). When using manure or
other organic sources, the addition of
potassium from non-organic sources
may be required.
• Other Plant Nutrients - The planned
rates of application of other nutrients if
applicable are consistent with North
Carolina State University or the
NCDABCS guidelines or
recommendations.
Nutrient Application Timing
Timing of nutrient application shall
correspond as closely as possible with
0
plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while
considering cropping system limitations,
weather and climatic conditions, and field
accessibility. Nutrients shall not be
applied to frozen, snow-covered, or
saturated soil.
Manure or organic by-products shall not
be applied more than 30 days prior to
planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
For nutrients applied through irrigation
systems, application equipment should be
properly calibrated to ensure uniform
distribution of material at planned rates.
Plan Review and Revision Period
A thorough review and revision (if
needed) of the nutrient management plan
shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not
to exceed five years.
Heavy Metals Monitoring
For animal waste, including sludge, zinc
and copper concentrations shall be

Crop Notes
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1-3, 1-5
Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains
In the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Plant
1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and
information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for
your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be
applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 213 to 314 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when
corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage. Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs nitrogen per ton of expected
yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be
reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and
expected yield. Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus
is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the
growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is
essential in profitable com silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest.
The following crop note applies to field(s): 1-1, 1-2, 1-4
Fescue: Mountains
Adaptation: Well -adapted.
In the Mountains, tall fescue can be planted July 25 to Aug. 20 (best) and Mar. 20 to Apr. 20. For
pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 Ib/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 Ib/ac. seed. Use certified seed
to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in
mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium
recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lblac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for
mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 Ib/ac. N to
pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% to 50% for grazing. Apply N Mar. 10 to
Apr. 20 and Aug. 10 to Sept. 10, with equal amounts in each window. In higher mountain pastures spring
N can be delayed until after the early flush of seedheads has been mowed or grazed off. Refer to NCSU

Excessive Vegetative • Decaying vegetation 0 Maintain vegetative control along banks of lagoons
Growth � and other impoundmentsto prevent accumulation of
decaying vegetative matter along water's edge on
impoundment's perimeter.
Feeders • Feed Spillage 0 Design, operate and maintain feed systems (e.g.,
bunkers and troughs) to minimize the accumulation
of decayingwastage.
Clean up spillage on a routine basis (e.g., 7 - 10 day
interval during summer; 15-30 day interval during
f winter).

Mortality Management Methods
(check which method(s) are being implemented)
® Burial three feet beneath the surface of the ground within 24 hours after knowledge of
the death. The burl I must be at least 300 feet from any flowing stream or public
body of water. Lao\tA
Rendering at a rendering plant licensed under G.S. 106-168.7.
❑ Complete incineration
D In the case of dead poultry only, placing in a disposal pit of size and design
approved by the Department of Agriculture.
❑ Any method which in the professional opinion of the State Veterinarian would make
possible the salvage of part of a dead animal's value without endangering human or
animal health;- (Written approval of the State Veterinarian must be attached)
