The waste contains a large amount
of nitrogen. To protect the environment, be carehd to apply the waste only at rates needed to meet crop nitrogen requirement
The waste product contains a large amount of sodium. This element can accumulate in soils where it replaces calcium and contributes to excess soluble salts. Sodium may
also damage the foliage of sensitive plants
where the waste is a liquid and applied
in overhead irrigation systems. Monitor sodium accumulation in the soil where the waste is routinely_applied.

The waste contains a large amount of nitrogen. To protect the environment, be careful to apply the waste only at rates needed to meet crop nitrogen requirement.
The waste product contains a large amount of sodium. This element Can accumulate in sails where it replaces calcium and contributes to excess soluble salts. Sodium may also damage the foliage of sensitive plants
where the waste is a liquid and Rplied in overhead irri&Alion 5stems. Monitor sodium accumulation in the sail where the waste is routinely applied.

James,
My apologies for taking so long to follow-up on our phone conversation
concerning the status of the Dale Stikeleather, Facility 02-06, in
Alexander County.
I checked my files, and I received a phone call from Mr. Stikeleather on
September 14, 2006 requesting that his animal waste plan be changed from
the 400 dairy cows that it was originally certified for, to either 400
or 450 beef cattle. At that time I was the only technical person in the
office, as the District's Cost Share Technician Position was vacant, and
I remember telling Mr. Stikeleather that it would be awhile before we
could do this revision. To be perfectly honest with you, I have not had
any further conversations with him since that time, and I had completely
forgotten about his request.
I am still the only staff person here with job approval authority for
these types of changes. Additionally, for some time now my higest
priority work has been to alleviate a backlog of work here under the
USDA-NRCS Environmental Quality Incentives Program, and this will
continue to be the case for the next several months. But, I will contact
Mr. Stikeleather, and together with Lee Holcomb, the SWCD Soil and Water
Conservationist, will meet with him and get the necessary information to
complete this revision. This revision will be quite time consuming, as
it will require re -calculating the waste storage pond and drystack
storage, as well as performing PLAT analysis on the fields to which
waste will be applied. But with Lee's help, we will try to get this
completed.
Please let me know if there are any questions.

Follow-up on Dale Stikeleather- Facility 02-06
Subject: Follow-up on Dale Stikeleather- Facility 02-06

CC: "Holcomb, Lee"<[e-mail]>
James,
My apologies for taking so long to follow-up on our phone conversation
concerning the status of the Dale Stikeleather, Facility 02-06, in
Alexander County.
I checked my files, and I received a phone call from Mr. Stikeleather on
September 14, 2006 requesting that his animal waste plan be changed from
the 400 dairy cows that it was originally certified for, to either 400
or 450 beef cattle. At that time I was the only technical person in the
office, as the District's Cost Share Technician Position was vacant, and
I remember telling Mr. Stikeleather that it would be awhile before we
could do this revision. To be perfectly honest with you, I have not had
any further conversations with him since that time, and I had completely
forgotten about his request.
I am still the only staff person here with job approval authority for
these types of changes. Additionally, for some time now my higest
priority work has been to alleviate a backlog of work here under the
USDA-NRCS Environmental Quality Incentives Program, and this will
continue to be the case for the next several months. But, I will contact
Mr. Stikeleather, and together with Lee Holcomb, the SWCD Soil and Water
Conservationist, will meet with him and get the necessary information to
complete this revision. This revision will be quite time consuming, as
it will require re -calculating the waste storage Pond and drystack
storage, as well as performing PLAT analysis on the fields to which
waste will be applied. But with Lee's help, we will try to get this
completed.
Please let me know if there are any questions.

Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWCO20006
Stikeleather Farms
Cattle Waste Collection, Treatment, Storage
and Application System
Alexander County_
In accordance with your renewal request received on February 15, 2005, we are hereby forwarding to you
this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Roger Dale Stikeleather, authorizing the operation of the
subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with
General Permit AWG200000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Stikeleather Farms, located in Alexander County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 400 Dairy Cows and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009, and shall hereby void the
COC dated May 23, 2003, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein.
Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the
conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An
adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information
must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design
capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a
modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either
wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay _careful_ attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.

Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Mooresville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Aquifer Protection Staff may be reached at [phone]. If you need additional information
concerning this COC or the_General Permit, please contact JR Joshi at (9I9) 715-6698.

Dear Dale Strikeleather:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary review of the subject application. Additional information is
required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by April 26, 2003:
1. This office currently has a waste utilization plan (WUP) for this facility dated 12/17/1999 in the name of Dale
Stikeleather. The plan was for 400 head dairy operation. A recent site visitation made to this farm showed that the farm
has since been sold to Mr. Arthur Lane. Please verify the ownership status of the farm and fill out the enclosed
Notification of Change of Ownership.
2. A number of pages in the above WUP were changed at a later date to include all the fields that utilize animal waste.
Those changes were not signed by the previous owner. Please verify that the same WUP is being followed on this farm
and, if so, have the corrected pages signed by both the owner and technical specialist. If you have modified the WUP
since then, please submit a copy of most recent WUP that reflects correct number of animals, crops grown, field utilized
and has field maps with acreage clearly marked on the maps.
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist.
Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be
signed, scaled, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information requested by this letter
must be submitted on or before April 26, 2003 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in
accordance with 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.
Please be advised that operation of the subject animal waste management system without a valid permit is a
violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and will subject you to the enforcement authority of the Environmental
Management Commission.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at [phone], extension 363.

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Stikeleather Farms
Facility Number 2-6 '
Alexander County
A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Rocky Durham on 4/12/99 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".
Categdry 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 Rocky Durham the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Rocky Durham, at 919 North Main Street,
Mooresville, NC 28115, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact Rocky Durham at [phone]. If within 90 days you are
unable to provide Rocky Durham with the information you are automatically required
to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within
180 days of receipt of this letter.

Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Page 2
Category 2:
Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, Ora Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ willbe forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at [phone] ext. 571.

The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary engineering review of the subject application.
Additional information is required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by June 30, 2000:
Please fill out a more detailed Emergency Action Plan (a copy enclosed). Please keep a copy for your farm and send two copies to
this office for inclusion in the permit package.
2. It appears that the plant available nitrogen (PAN) rate in the WUP was generated using a waste analysis of the lagoon
liquid. Current guidance recommends that an average PAN production rate be calculated using representative waste
samples, at least two per year for dairies with waste storage ponds, over a three year period. It is necessary to take
these samples at different times of the year to reflect seasonal variations in PAN. In addition, irrigation records must
be supplied for the same three year period. Please submit additional information to support the PAN production rate as
listed in the current WUP or revise the WUP to show average "book" values for PAN production at this facility.
3. The certification Amendment for Cattle Facilities (a copy enclosed) is missing a signature from the landowner. Please
sign, date, and return to include it in the permit package.
4. Please submit copies of the land lease agreement for the ]eased land.
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist.
Please reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be
signed, sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information requested by this letter must
be submitted on or before June 30, 2000 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in accordance with 15A

Subject: Complaint Investigation
Blocked Stream
Iredell County, NC
Dear Mr. Stikeleather:
On August 11, 2001 this office received a complaint concerning a stream that was blocked due
to Grading that was occurring. Mr. Alan Johnson of this office conducted an investiLyation on August
13, 2001. He found no obstruction of the stream flow during the site visit. However, he did note that
the area had been cleared of vegetation up to the stream bank, except for a few trees that were left
standing. In the event of rain, this leaves the stream susceptible to sedimentation from soil erosion,'
which could cause a violation of the State's stream standards. It is strongly suggested that the area
be immediately seeded to grass.
In conversation with Mr. Johnson, it is his understanding that you were informed that because
the clearing of the land was for agricultural purposes you were exempt from filing a sedimentation/
erosion control plan. That is true; however, you are still liable for any water quality violations that
result from runoff. With that in mind, you are encouraged to maintain a buffer between the area to
be improved and any stream that could be impacted.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson
or me at [phone].

D. Rex Gleason, P.E.

On August 9, 2001 this office received a complaint concerning a stream that was blocked
due to land being cleared for a pasture. The stream is an unnamed tributary of Fourth Creek just
south of Stikeleather Rd. Mr. Alan Johnson of this office conducted an investigation on August
10, 2001. He found no obstruction of the stream flow during the site visit. However, he did note
that the area had been cleared of all vegetation up to the stream bank (approximately 800-ft. of
stream bank), except for a few trees that were left standing. In the event of rain, this leaves the
stream susceptible to sedimentation from soil erosion, which could cause a violation of the
State's stream standards.
During the site visit the investigator informed Mr. Stikeleather that although he violated
no rules of the Division of Land Resources regarding sedimentation and erosion, he is still liable
for. any violations of water quality standards.

WRESViLLE REGIONAL QFFICt
In 1999, the North Carolina General Assembly passed legislation that required the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to locate and evaluate every inactive animal waste lagoon
in the state. Inactive lagoons were defined as those that have not received animal waste for at least one
year. This legislation requires that this inventory be completed and the results reported back to the
General Assembly within the next few months.
DENR has directed that the Division of Soil and Water Conservation and the Division of Water Quality
work together and complete this inventory and evaluation.
Our records indicate that an inactive lagoon may be located on land that you own or on which you have
previously raised animals. Due to this requirement to locate and evaluate all inactive lagoons, staff from
our Divisions will be contacting you to arrange a visit to your site to determine if an inactive lagoon
does in fact exist. If a lagoon is located, our staff is also required to gather information on the condition
of the lagoon and its potential to cause problems to the waters of the state.
We greatly appreciate your assistance in helping us meet this legislative requirement. We will make
every effort to minimize any inconvenience that this effort may cause you and we will complete our
work as quickly as possible.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the staff in our Mooresville Regional Office
at 704/663-1699. Please ask for someone with either our Division of Soil and Water Conservation staff
or our Division of Water Quality staff.

Dear Dale Stikeleather.
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. M1, 1RR2, DRY I, 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.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the
DWQ staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Subject: Site Inspection
Stikeleather Farms, Facility ## : 2-6
Alexander County, NC
Dear Mr. Stikeleather:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this office has been asked on several occasions about the
appropriate time and proper method to take soil and waste samples. Also, during his
inspections, he has noticed that while the storage capacity may be adequate in the
storage pond/lagoon, in some cases it was not at the level set forth in the waste
utilization plan. Mr. Johnson has also noted that some animal operations using
hay/pasture systems do not appear to be properly managing the hay crop in the waste
application fields. This letter is to highlight some concerns and provide some
general guidance for the animal facilities regarding the management of the storage
pond/lagoon and waste application fields. For more specific/detailed information,
please contact your technical specialist or your local agricultural extension service.
Be advised that should a farm be found violating its farm plan and/or have an
I unpermitted discharge, besides facing civil penalties, the facility could be required to
Y v,, 7 apply for an individual permit. Currently, most farms are operating under a general
s:- - permit.
Waste applications
Just as you manage the animals at your facility, proper management of the
waste (lagoon/storage pond level) is important. The waste must be pumped from the
ponds at the correct time and provide for maximum utilization of the nutrients by the
crop. Remember, waste application rates in your farm plan are based on agronomic
principles, and assumes the waste will be applied when the nutrients are required
(e.g., applying waste to corn at tasseling or bermuda grass in November is of little
use for the uptake of nitrogen). Also, the established application rate assumes that
the previous crop has been removed from the field.

AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/ AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER -50% RECYCLED/10% POST -CONSUMER PAPER

Page 2
Grass and small grain crops grown for hay should be harvested in a timely manner. To
maximize nutrient uptake, as indicated in the waste utilization plan, and for highest quality, the
crop should be harvested at early boot stage (generally every 4 to 5 weeks). Small grain for
silage can be harvested in the soft dough stage when direct cut. Contact your agricultural
extension agent or technical specialist for proper guidance.
General RecoMMendations for Nitrogen 0 Application for Qgmon Crops,
• Small Grains: One-third (1/3) N at planting and remainder in late February or early
March.
• Corn/Sorghum: For facilities that pump and haul, N should be applied prior to planting.
For those facilities that irrigate, a split application with half at planting and the remainder
when the corn is 18 inches high.
• Fescue/Orchardgrass: Apply one-half (1/2) of the N in mid -February to March and one-
half (1/2) in mid -August to September.
• Bermuda grass: Establishing: 30 to 40 lbs N/ac at planting and 30 to 60 lbs N/ac when
runners appear (6 -8 wk. after planting). Maintaining: 50 to 60 lbs N/ac in April and the
remainder of the recommended amount in equal increments in June and July or after each
cutting.
Finally, there have been instances where the amount of waste pumped (as shown in the
waste application records) from the lagoon/storage pond does not appear to agree with the
amount of waste produced by the animals. One would expect on an annual basis that the amount
pumped would be approximately equal to the amount being produced. For example, if a dairy is
generating 453,000 gal/yr in waste, then approximately 453,000 gallons of waste should be
accounted for in the waste application records over a year. However, there may be some
difference due to how low the storage pond was pumped, the number of cows being held in the
facility, or the amount of rainfall.
Soil analysis (FREE)
Fifteen to twenty (15 to 20) soil samples per field (20 acres or less) is desirable. The
samples should be thoroughly mixed and sent in as one sample. Each sample should be pulled 4
inches deep for pastures and no -till systems and 8 inches deep for conventional tillage systems.
Taking samples during the fall is advisable. The state lab is not as busy at that time and
can provide a more timely turn around with the results. This is also a good time to apply lime if
recommended by the soil test. When liming is necessary, it is important that it be applied as
suggested. Maintaining proper soil pH is as important (if not more so) than fertilizing to
maximize crop production.

Page 3
Waste samples/analysis ($4/sample)
The state lab now has the capability to conduct analyses and provide the results within
two working days via the internet. Through the US Postal service allow seven days. Take
samples in a timely manner such that waste application rates can be based on the most recent
sample results.
Six to eight (6 to 8) samples should be taken around the edge of the lagoon/storage pond,
approximately 6 feet from the edge and 12 inches below the surface. These can be mixed to
make one sample. The sample should be refrigerated if it is not going to be shipped the same
day. Always mail waste samples in plastic containers.
For farmers who do not have to agitate the lagoon/storage pond prior to application, it is
strongly suggested that waste samples be taken prior to waste application. This will prevent the
pidducer from having to go back and complete the waste application record at a later date.
For farmers who apply waste to hay fields and pastures, it is strongly suggested that
waste samples be taken quarterly if the waste is applied anytime during the growing season.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson
or me at [phone].

Subject: Request for Status Update
Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
Stikeleather Farms
Facility Number: 2-6
Alexander County
In accordance with State Regulations (15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(E)) adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission on February 1, 1993, the owner of the subject facility was required to submit a
Certification Form for the facility's animal waste management system by December 31, 1997.
This letter is to advise you that this office has no record of having received the required Certification for
the subject facility. Please provide this office with an explanation as to why this Certification was not
submitted as required. This explanation must be received within 30 days following the receipt of this letter.
Any existing facility owner which did not submit the required certification by the deadline is no longer
deemed permitted to operate their animal waste management system. Therefore, if the certification was not
submitted as required and the facility is still in operation, this facility is being operated without a valid
permit. N.C.G.S. 143-215.6(b) allows the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources to take appropriate enforcement actions for this violation for as long as the violation continues.
As per Senate Bill 1217, which was ratified on June 21, 1996, the Environmental Management
Commission (EMC) may enter into a special agreement with facilities that did not meet the December 31,
1997 deadline. These special agreements can only be issued to facility owners which signed up for assistance
with their local Soil and Water Conservation District Office by September 1, 1996 and which can
demonstrate that they made a good faith effort to meet the December 31, 1997 deadline. The special
agreement, if issued, would contain a specific schedule for the facility to follow to develop and/or implement
an approved animal waste management plan. Attached is an application for a special agreement between the
EMC and the subject facility. If you can demonstrate that this facility can meet the conditions for a special
agreement, you may send this request along with your explanation as to why the plan has not been developed
and implemented. This request would also be due within 30 days from receipt of this letter.

Also attached is a form (Form RR 2198) that must be filled out if the facility is no longer in operation or is
below the threshold established in15A NCAC 2H .0217(a)(1)(A). Facilities which maintain the number of animals
below certain thresholds are not required to be certified. These thresholds are:
100 head of cattle
75 horses
250 swine
1000 sheep
30,000 birds with a liquid system
Please subnvt this form if the subject facility is not operating or is below the threshold limit established in 15A
NCAC 2H.0217(a)(1)(A).
Please submit all responses to this matter to the following address:
Attn: Shannon Langley
Division of Water Quality
P.O. Box 29535
Raleigh NC 27626-0535
Once your response is received, it Mll be evaluated in detail along with any supporting information that
you may wish to submit. Following this review, you will be advised of the results of the review and of any
additional actions that must be taken to bring your facility into compliance.
Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with the requirement to develop and implement a certified animal waste
management plan by December 31, 1997. Please also be advised that the submittal of a request for a special
agreement does not assure that one will be issued. Each facility will be reviewed on a case by case basis and
appropriate actions will be taken to bring each facility into compliance.
Thank you for your immediate attention to this issue. If you have any questions concerning this matter,
please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Shannon Langley of our staff at [phone] ext. 581.

Subject: Certification/Notice of Violations
Stikeleather Farms, Facility # : 2-6
Alexander County, NC
The deadline for the certified waste management plan to be implemented is December 31, 1997,
and there will be no extension of the deadline. With this in mind, this letter will touch on some of the
general components and issues that are of concern during an inspection.
As a certified, or soon to be certified, farm your files at a minimum must contain the following
information, and need to be available for review during the inspection:
Certification forms
Site diagram - showing fencing, streams, buffer zones
Waste application records/forms
Maps of acreage and irrigated fields
Waste utilization plan
Waste and soil analysis records
Emergency action plan and mortality & odor control checklist
Regarding waste application records, all information should be recorded. This includes (but is
not limited to) the field used, total minutes waste was applied (if required), the amount of waste irrigated/
hauled, the amount of nitrogen applied and the crop nitrogen balance. The crops and fields that are being
utilized for waste application must be specified in the certified waste management plan. For those
facilities that grow hay, the date when the hay is harvested should be recorded. If you feel the plan does
not allow you the flexibility you need, contact a technical specialist to have the farm plan modified.
For lagoons/storage ponds, remember that a freeboard of 12 inches plus an additional 5 - 9
inches (depending on location) for a 25 year/24 hour rain event must be maintained from the top of the
storage pond/lagoon. If there is an emergency spillway/pipe, then the level must be maintained to
compensate for a 25 yr/24 hr storm. A pumping marker must also be installed. This may be a pipe or
other structure that is already in the Iagoon. Whatever the marker is, it must be prominently identified.

The question often comes up as to what warrants a Notice of Violation (NOV). An NOV may
be issued for the following instances, among others:
a) inadequate freeboard,
b) inadequate land for waste application,
c) application on an unapproved crop/acreage,
d) discharge of waste from lagoon/facility,
e) excessive vegetation on the sideslopes of a Iagoon/pond, or
f) other minor deficiencies.
Examples of a deficiency would be the waste or soil analysis forms not being up to date or the
application records not being filled out properly.
Please note, failure to submit the certification form by December 31, 1997, does not exclude you
from the responsibility of maintaining your storage pond/lagoon levels and waste application records.
Also, please be advised that North Carolina General Statutes provide for penalties of up to $ I0,000 per
day per violation as well as criminal penalties for violations of state environmental laws and regulations.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Alan Johnson or me
at [phone].

Dear Mr. Stikeleather:
Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an OTC.
A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving
cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain
a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and
returned by December 31, 1996,
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal, waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 91gn33-0026.

Dear Dale Strikeleather:
In accordance with your application received on December 29, 1999, we are forwarding this Certificate of
Coverage (COC) issued to Dale Stikeleather, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection,
treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. This approval
shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from
the Stikeleather Farms Farm, located in Alexander County, with an animal capacity of no greater than annual
average of 400 Dairy and the application to land as specified in the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC, you are
authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the
General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the
required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste
production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as
provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual
increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation of future
samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will
need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from -the obligation to comply with all applicable laws,
rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this
permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation
to the Division demonstrating that all current MRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility.
Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon or any
wetted area of a spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit or the
CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-215.6A through
143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the General
Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration.

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.
You must have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content
as close to the time of application as practical and at least within
60 days of the date of application before each application cycle.
Soil nutrients in all fields where waste will be applied must be
analyzed at least annually so that all plant nutrients can be balanced
for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. soil test and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste
application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.

k
ASTER:
UTILIZATION
PLAN
".
A
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Lime must be
applied to application fields as recommended by soil test to
maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
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
greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, (see Required Specification No. 4) waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is a violation
of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)
.0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste
should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
5. 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. Otherwise apply waste no
earlier than 30 days prior to planting a crop or prior to
forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or otherwise
incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where
waste is applied shall be monitored and alternative
application fields shall be used when these metals approach
excess levels.
6

This plan is based on waste application by Land Application and
Irrigation, for this is the manner in which you have chosen to apply
your waste'. If you choose to alter the method(s) of application in
the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for various
waste application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on
typical nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual
acreage requirements shall be based on waste analysis reports from
storage structures in your waste management system. Attached you will
find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and
transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
Your (structures) are designed for 120 days of temporary storage and
the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
4 mos. If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the
volume of waste being stored in your structure be higher than the
maximum storage marker except in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour
storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of
an animal waste management system shall operate the waste management
system, which is covered by this waste utilization plan. The North
Carolina Water Quality Commission will provide training and
certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the
Water Quality Commission.

Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
(Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA-NRCS FOTG
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
Lstorage structure (s).
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.

+WASTE. '.+UTILIZATION PLAN
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed, too properly irrigate the acres shown in
tables 1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of
nitrogen shown in the tables may make this j2lan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.

the soil and assuming no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.
Nitrogen rates are based on several factors; Soil type, Crop type, Realistic
Yield Expectation (R.Y.E.) Refer to the soil type chart attached to the back of
your WUP plan for the correct nitrogen application rate.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
The Stikeleather operation is a totally confined milking operation. All waste from the milking
animals is collected in a waste holding pond. All storm runoff and silage leachate are also
collected in this waste storage pond. The waste storage pond has 120 days o'f storage for 400
animals. Using the current number of animals on the farm, there will be greater than 180 days
of storage. The farm is certified for 400 animals, but at the current time only 250 animals are in
the milking herd. Heifers and dry cows are kept in pasture conditions and are not confined to a
specific lot. Irrigation and liquid tank trucks are used to get a uniform coverage of land
applied waste. Mr. Stikeleather is currently working with the Alexander SNVCD and NRCS to
build a dry stack that will be used to store the solids produced by the milking herd. These solids
will then be hauled to the receiving fields and uniformly spread with solid spreaders. This dry
stack will increase the %�,aste storage about 90 more days.

WASTE UTILIZATION 'PLAN
FIELD OFFICE INSTRUCTIONS
1. The waste utilization plan will include all animal waste: generated on the Farm.
2. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must be maintained hLlow the
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hotn- sta:-m event
in addition to the one ( 1) foot mandatory freeboard.
22

WASTE UTILIZATION PLCaW
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
I. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2._ (The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that Ihe_producer
either owns or has a notarized long term IVreement for use of adecLuate land on
which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adtgtmte land
to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide NRCS with a coley of"I
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowin_p, him/her the use of the land for "waste application
for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the
owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization PIan when
there is a chang-e 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 nccck for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, Unless there are regulations that restrict the ralc of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate Filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffets" required by DWQ. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter .S'trinsand ,Standard
392 - &pgt-iatt Forest Buffer. I
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. \Vt;te should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists \N hich may
cause a danger of drift from the irrigation field.
6. When animal waste is to be appliccl on acres sUtbject to flooding, it will he ,oil
incorporates( on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation -tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the .tppki ltion does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. See "Weather and Climate in North
Camlina" in the Technical Refei-once - Environment file for grtitlauce.)

7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate ,Lich that
1•unoff does rlo( occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method. %vhich ch)es not
cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur ill order to
control conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of.:pplication.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Amnia] waste shall be applied on actively grooving crops in such a mamler that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is heinr surface
applied. Sus'face broadcast solids or slurries may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where clzluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquids holdinY-T structure.
Where crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants Cannot
assimilate the nutrients and discharge of pollutants to Surface waters is likc]v to occur.
The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these Soils should
be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple 1pplica1i0I) tit lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for cE-01) production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more th,ul 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking clormancv. Infecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply \\ ith the
following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is app!icd from a
lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from ai y
residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal). Animal waste (other than swine waste hone facilities sited
Oil or alter October 1; 1995,} shale] not be applied closer than 75 I'cct to ti,u l ace water.

SYSTEM OVERVIEf►W
This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following major
components:
1. WASTE STORAGE POND
2. PUMPING AND AGITATION SYSTEM
3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
All solid and liquid waste will be scraped from the,lots on a daily
basis and pushed into the WASTE STORAGE POND.
All contaminated runoff and leachate from the silos will flow into
the WASTE STORAGE POND. This structure is designed to provide
storage for (120) days of normal rainfall runoff from the feedlot
and provide storage space for the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-
four (24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot. The milk barn waste
and wash water is piped directly into the WASTE STORAGE,POND. The
contaminated liquid in the slurry is then agitated and pumped into
spreader trucks or irrigation system and applied to the land at the
appropriate agronomic rates.
This Animal Waste Management System is designed to prevent
discharge of Animal Waste Contaminates to surface waters from the
twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm, as required
under the Non -discharge regulations.
All maintenance and operation costs are the responsibility of the
landowner and cannot be cost shared.

r
1. WASTE STORAGE POND
OVERVIEW
The WASTE STORAGE POND is designed to store the average feedlot
runoff, wastewater from the milk barn and.leachate from the silos.
Additional storage space is included in the slurry to contain the
twenty-five (25) year, twenty --four (24) hour storm runoff. A four
(4) inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe will be installed in each pond, with
the level of the end -cap indicating the level of storage available
prior to infringing on the 25 year, 24 hour storm capacity.
OPERATION
The level of management for the entire system will determine the
service life of the WASTE STORAGE POND. How effectively the waste
is agitated will determine the amount of solids which remain in the
WASTE STORAGE POND.
Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the
WASTE STORAGE POND. The accumulated solids should not reduce the
usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND to a point that requires
removal of the solids for many years IF adequate waste agitation is
maintained. In contrast, poor management will result in the rapid
accumulation of solids, which will reduce the usable capacity of
the WASTE STORAGE POND to the point that some form of dredging will
be required. If inadequate agitation is performed, this dredging
operation could be required in a very short period of time.
If at any point in the future the usable capacity of the WASTE
STORAGE POND becomes reduced to the point that solids must be
removed, the removal of these solids will be at your expense. This
would be part of the maintenance of your system and cannot be cost
shared.
MAINTENANCE
Vegetation on the dam should be inspected periodically and re-
seeded as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. The dam should be
mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing operations
must take place only when the soil on the dam is dry and vegetation
should not be mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches at any
time. See CRITICAL AREA PLANTING for further maintenance
requirements. Any evidence of sloughing or seepage should be
reported to the Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District
office.

2. PUMPING AND AGITATION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The LIQUID MANURE SLURRY is going to be pumped and hauled by an
outside contractor. The contractor has agreed to perform this
operation and land apply the waste to the designated fields at the
appropriate agronomic rates. The contractor has several pumps and
agitators as well, as spreader trucks to perform the operation.
Using a Lagoon Pump that is operated off of a PTO System will do
the pumping and agitation. The waste will be pumped into 1,500-
gallon spreader trucks to be land applied. THE COOPERATOR NOT THE
CONTRACTOR, IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT THE HOLDING PONDS ARE
MAINTAINED AT THE PROPER CAPACITY. It is recommended that the
cooperator has another means of agitating and pumping the holding
ponds and does not solely rely on the contractor.
OPERATION
Alexander Soil & Water Conservation District staff and/or USDA -
Natural Resources Conservation Service staff will be available to
assist with any questions or problems the contractor or cooperator
may have.
WASTE HOLDING POND Pumping and Agitation operation should be
initiated prior to the liquid level reaching the full storage level
marker in the structures. When the liquid level in the WASTE
HOLDING POND reach the marker, liquids must be removed by pumping
from the structures into the Spreader Trucks or irrigation system.
Do not spread waste from the Spreader Trucks in such a manner as to
cause runoff or erosion. Do not spread waste on frozen or
saturated soils. Spread waste only until soil is near saturation
point.
The initial step in each Pumping and Hauling operation is to
properly agitate the waste in the WASTE HOLDING POND. It is
crucial that agitation be performed before pumping. This will
ensure proper removal of waste from the POND.
MAINTENANCE
Soils test the fields that will receive waste annually. Vegetation
in the fields that receive waste should be inspected periodically
to insure a vigorous stand. Fields may also need to be limed and
fertilized annually.

3. CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The CONTAMINATED LIQUID COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM consists of
two (2) pre -cast concrete drop boxes with neoprene "boots" cast
into install bell -end, gasketed PVC pipes. Structure (1) collects
the lot runoff and transports it to the WASTE HOLDING POND.
Structure (2) collects the leachate and runoff from the silos, then
transports it to the WASTE HOLDING POND. An existing pipe pipes
the waste water from the milk barn into the WASTE HOLDING POND.
The bell -ended, gasketed SDR 35 PVC pipe will be completely or
partially buried. to the liquid manure slurry from each of the two
pre -cast drop boxes. The contaminated water will flow directly
from the pipes into the WASTE HOLDING POND. All exposed pipes will
be coated with an UV protecting paint.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the concrete components of the CONTAMINATED LIQUID
COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM for cracks or other damage, and make
repairs or replace as needed. Inspect the drop structures
seasonally and remove accumulated solids. Annually inspect the
pipe coating, and ,clean and re -coat as needed.
GENERAL COMMENTS
PESTICIDE USE
Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides so
that desirable vegetation, especially that of the dam, is not
adversely affected. It is a violation of law to use any pesticide
in a manner not permitted by its labeling. To protect yourself,
never apply any pesticide in a manner or for a purpose other than
as instructed on the label or in labeling accompanying the
pesticide product that you purchase. Do not ignore the
instructions for use of protective clothing and devices and for
storage and disposal of pesticide wastes, including containers.
REPAIRS
Notify the Alexander Soil and Water conservation District if
repairs or major modifications are required for any of the
components of this Waste Management System.

Please indicate the max.imum number of animals that your animal waste management system is designed to
accommodate:
Dairy Milking+dry cows _ 400 @ 120 days storage
Heifers
Calves
Beef Brood Cows
Feeders
Stockers
TOTAL ANIMAL NUMBER _ 4nQ_hea5*
** If this total is equal to the number that your facility is certified for, you do not rid+( domplete the rest of this
form. If the above total number of animals is different than your certified number but it is what your technical
specialist evaluated when your facility was certified, please have your technical specialist amend the cerdfication by
completing the section below. If your facility was not previously evaluated and certified for the maximum design
capacity, you must have a technical specialist re -certify your facility. Your certification number should be the
maximum number of animals (cows, heifers, calves, etc.) that your animal waste management system can
accommodate.
Please use the space below to describe the operation.
The milking herd is 100% confined. The dry herd and the heifer herd are pasture
operations. The roof .runoff is diverted around the waste holding pond. The barn
wastewater and the silage leachate,are captured and stored in the waste pond.
Currently this facility is milking around'250 head.: ;they may never go over. 300
head but if they do they will hAVe plenty of 'storage. 300 head'will have around
180 days of storage.and 400 head will have over 120 days storage.
Another factor that needs -to be considered is a dry stack for the solids. The NRCS
Amended Certification (only needed if the incorrect +.•umber of animals was previously certified): (over)
By signing this you are certifying that the animal waste management system at this facility has been evaluated for
the maximum number of animals that it can appropriately accommodate; however, the original certification did not
correctly represent this number (shown above as Total Animal Number).

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing, or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your properly to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for
all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take,
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are-
a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
C. Stop all flows to the lagoon itnmediately.
d. Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
B: Runoff from waste application field -actions. include:
a. Immediately stop waste application.
b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused.the runoff.
e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C: Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge:
s' d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D: Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include:
a. Stop recycle pump.
b. Stop irrigation pump.
c. Make sure no siphon occurs.
d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators.
1 December 13, 1996*

'r' e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps,
E: Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to
flowing leaks- possible action:
a. Dig a small sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage,
put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon.
b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals. trap or remove animals and fill
holes and compact with a clay type soil.
c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon
bottom as soon as possible.
2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach any surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any darnage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? —
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? .
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off of the property)?
-h. How much reached surface waters?
3: Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (Division of Water Quality)
regional office; Phone - - . After hours, emergency number. 919-733-3942.
Your phone call should -include: your name, facility, telephone number, the details
of the incident from item 2 above, the exact location of the facility, the location or
direction of movement of the spill, weather and wind conditions. The corrective
measures that have been under taken, and the seriousness of the situation.
b. If spill leaves property or enters surface waters, call local EMS Phone number -
c. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department.
d. Contact CES, phone number - - , local SWCD office phone number-
and local MRCS office for advice/technical assistance phone number -
4: If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheriffs Department and ekplain your
problem to them and ask that person to contact the proper agencies -for you.

Total animal waste and waste water volume generated in one year is
approximately 6,800 tons or
1,191,591 gallons or 43.9 acre -inches.
lbs. PAN per year from liquid waste and 29,240 lbs. PAN
r year from solid waste.
32,100 Total lbs. PAN per year
Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
Values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA-NRCS FOTG'
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
storage structure(s).
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.

Pleasc indicate the maximum number of animals that your animal waste management system is designed to
accommodate:
Dairy Milking+drycows 400 @ _120 days storage
Heifers
Calves
Beef Brood Cows
Feeders
Stockers
TOTAL ANIMAL NUMBER 400 haaj*
** If this total is equal to the number that your facility is certified for, you do not need to complete the rest of this
form. If the above total number of animals is different than your certified number but it is what your technical
specialist evaluated when your facility was certified, please have your technical specialist amend the certification by
completing the section below. If your facility was not previously evaluated and certified for the maximum design
capacity, you must have a technical specialist re -certify your facility. Your certification number should be the
maximum number of animals (cows, heifers, calves, etc.) that your animal waste management system can
accommodate.
Please use the space below to describe the operation.
'The milking herd is 100% confined. The dry herd and the heifer herd are pasture
operations. The roof .runoff is diverted around the waste holding pond. The barn
wastewater and the silage leachate are captured and stored in the waste pond.
Currently this facility is milking around 250 head. 'They may never go over 300
head but if they do they will hdVe plenty of storage. 300 head will have around
180 days of storage and 400 head will have over 120 days storage.
Another factor that needs -to be considered is a dry stack for the solids. The NRCS
Amended Certification (only needed if the incorrect number of animals was previously certified): (over)
By signing this you are certifying that the animal waste management system at this facility has been evaluated for

REVISED AND UPDATED 4/22/03
Producer: Dale Stikeleather
Location: SR 1478 York Road
Telephone: [phone]
Type Operation:
Number of Animals:
(Design Capacity)
Dairy (Holsteins)
400 milking cows
Storage Structure(s): Waste Holding Pond
Application Method(s): Broadcast Land Application
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.
You must have the animal waste analyzed to determine nutrient content
as close to the time of application as practical and at least within
60 days of the date of application before each application cycle.
Soil nutrients in all fields where waste will be applied must be
analyzed at least annually so that all plant nutrients can be balanced
for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil test and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste
application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste
application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five
(5) years.
1

•
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Lime must be
applied to application fields as recommended by soil test to
maintain the plant uptake of nutrients.
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
greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, (see Required Specification No. 4) waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is a violation
of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)
.0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions at the time of field application of waste
should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. 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. Otherwise apply waste no
earlier than 30 days prior to planting a crop or prior to
forages breaking dormancy. Injecting or otherwise
incorporating the waste below the soil surface will conserve
nutrients and reduce odor problems.
7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all fields where
waste is applied shall be monitored and alternative
application fields shall be used when these metals approach
excess levels.
N

This plan is based on waste application by Land Application of solids
and liquids, for this is the manner in which you have chosen to apply
your waste. If you choose to alter the method(s) of application in
the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for various
waste application methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste are based on
typical nutrient content for Dairy systems in North Carolina. Actual
acreage requirements shall be based on waste analysis reports from
storage structures in your waste management system. Attached you will
find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and
transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.
Your Waste storage pond is designed for 328 days of temporary storage
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every
12 mos. . Your Dry Stack is designed for approximately 90 days of
temporary storage and must be removed on the average of once every 3
mos. . If your facility is unroofed, in no instance should the volume
of waste being stored in your structure be higher than the maximum
storage marker except in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis
report for assistance in determining the amount per,acre to apply and
the proper application rate prior to applying the waste.
Only persons who hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of
an animal waste management system shall operate the waste management
system, which is covered by this waste utilization plan. The North
Carolina Water Quality Commission will provide training and
certification of operators.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements
for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the
Water Quality Commission.

AMOUNT OF LIQUID WASTE PRODUCED/YEAR FROM MILK ROOM AND LOT RUNOFF.
400 milk cows X 5 gallons/cow/day X 365 days = 730,000 gallons
LOT RUNOFF IS APPROXIMATELY 461,591 gallons/year
TOTAL ANIMAL WASTE AND WASTE WATER VOLUME GENERATED IN ONE YEAR IS
APPROXIMATELY 6,800 tons solid waste or 1,191,591 gallons or 43.9 acre/inches
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED/YEAR FROM LIQUID WASTE

gallons or 43.9 acre -inches.
lbs. PAN per year from liquid waste and 29,240 lbs. PAN
r year from solid waste.
32,100 Total lbs. PAN per year
Applying the above amount of waste as calculated above is a big job. You should
plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
values used above are based on analysis of waste from similar
livestock operations in North Carolina (source: USDA-NRCS FOTGI
Practice Standard 633-Waste Utilization). Actual nutrient
content of the waste from this system may vary from these
values. Waste analysis should be made of the actual waste as
soon as possible after significant waste accumulates in the
storage structure (s).
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.

•
•
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the infiltration rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is
limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water
droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the
available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor
should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
It is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that
an irrigation system is installed, too properly irrigate the acres shown in
tables 1 through 3. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of
nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying forage plants under stress
condition. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forages or hays
for nitrate levels is recommended.
r

WASTE APPLICATION TABLES
The crop fields shown in the Waste Application Tables that follow are available
for waste application. It will not be necessary and may not be desirable to
apply waste to each of these fields in any given year.
The Lbs. of Nitrogen Per Acre shown in the tables are estimated annual nitrogen
(N) requirements of the crop to be grown based on the potential productivity of
the soil and assuming no double cropping.
The Recommended Lbs. of N to be Applied per acre indicates the Nitrogen that can
be reasonably applied to the crop and used by the crop in a timely manner using
animal waste alone. It will not be practical to meet all the nutrient needs of
some crops with animal waste. Supplemental applications of commercial
fertilizer may be required during the growing season in order to meet all crop
nutrient needs. It is assumed that for certain row crops only a fraction of the
total annual nitrogen requirement can be applied using animal waste.
The landowner shall record the actual waste application volume made on each
field on the Department of Water Quality Waste Application Record Form.
Nitrogen rates are based on several factors; Soil type, Crop type, Realistic
Yield Expectation (R.Y.E.) Refer to the soil type chart attached to the back of
your WUP plan for the correct nitrogen application rate.
The following legend explains the crop codes used in the field application
tables.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
x
The Stikeleather operation is a totally confined milking operation. All barn -water from the
milking animals is collected in a waste holding pond. All storm runoff and silage leachate are
also collected in this waste storage pond. The waste storage pond has 328 days of storage for
400 animals. Using the current number of animals on the farm, there will be greater than 500
days of storage. The farm is certified for 400 animals, but at the current time only 250 animals
are in the milking herd. Heifers and dry cows are kept in pasture conditions and are not
confined to a specific lot. Liquid slurry tanks are used to get a uniform coverage of land
applied waste. Mr. Stikeleather has completed a dry stack that will be used to store the solids
produced by the milking herd. These solids will then be hauled to the receiving fields and
uniformly spread with solid spreaders. This dry stack will increase the waste storage about 90
days. If needed the solids can also be stored in the waste storage pond.

FIELD OFFICE INSTRUCTIONS
1. The waste utilization plan will include all animal waste generated on the farm.

maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event
in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

ilk
T Ilk :N PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste, which reaches surface water, is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge continues.
2. (The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the „producer
either owns or has a notarized long term 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 NRCS with a copy of a
notarized agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a
reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application
for the life expectancy of the roducdon facili . It is the responsibility of the
owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
utilization, or available land).
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic
crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions,
and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of
application for other nutrients. Actual yields may be used in lieu of realistic yield
tables at the discretion of the planner.
4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If a RMS or ACS is used the
soil loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DWQ. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard
392 - Riparian_ Forest Buffer.
5. Injecting the waste or disking after waste application can reduce odors. Waste should
not be applied when the wind is blowing or any other condition exists which may
cause a 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" in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.)
27

S" E 10" � 0 PLA N
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
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 conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when
the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the
crop is not damaged by burning or smothering of the plant. This is an important
consideration where swine, poultry or other ammonia rich waste is being surface .
applied. Surface broadcast solids or slurries may damage crops if leaf surfaces are
matted. Generally waste should be applied such that no more than 20 to 25 percent of
the leaf area is covered. This should not normally be a concern where diluted, low
nutrient waste is irrigated or surface broadcast from a liquids holding structure.
Where crops are severely damaged due to waste application, the plants cannot
assimilate the nutrients and discharge of pollutants to surface waters is likely to occur.
The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should
be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released
nutrients. On soils with a high potential for leaching, multiple application at lower
rates should be used. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production &
reduce the potential for pollution, the waste shall not be applied more than 30 days
prior to planting of the crop on bare soil, or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the
waste or disking will conserve nutrients.
11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the
following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a
lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any
residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an
irrigation ditch or canal). Animal waste (other than swine waste from facilities sited
on or after October 1, 1995J shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.
(See Standard 393 - Filter Strips and _Standard 392 - Riparian Forest Buffer)

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet -to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in 'a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands
by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided a "technical specialist" has approved them as a land application
site. Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways, which discharge
directly into watercourses. If animal waste is to be applied on other grassed
waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates and 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/holding pond embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). if needed, special
vegetation shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species,
etc. are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon/holding pond areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon/holding pond berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
1$. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing an "approved 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.
29

REQUIRED SPECIFICA TIONS
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for
direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct
human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
21. Highly visible permanent markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons.
Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A
marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage
ponds.
22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least
annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -
determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and
alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. Soil
pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records
shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste
shall be maintained for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations. North
Carolina General Statute 106-403 requires that dead animals be disposed of within 24
hours in a manner approved by the state veterinarian.

waste treatment and storage system or construction of new
facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) before the new
animals are stocked. I (we) also understand that there must be no
discharge of animal waste from this system to surface waters of the
state from a storm event less severe than the 25-year, 24--hour
storm. The approved plan will be filed on -site at the farm office
and at the office of the local Soil and water Conservation District
and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request.
I (we) understand that I (we) must own or have access to irrigation
or other equipment, to land apply the animal waste described in
this Waste Utilization Plan. The equipment must be available at
the appropriate time such that no discharge occurs from the lagoon,
holding pond, tank, or other unroofed storage structure in a 25
year, 24 hour storm event. I (we) also certify that the waste will
be applied on the land according to this plan at the appropriate
times and at rates that no run-off occurs. -
