To whom it may concern,
Concerning the inspection of Hunsucker Farms on August 24, 2011 and the alleged
over application of plant available nitrogen, this correspondence is sent per your
request.
As I understand the rules, the waste sample can be sent in for analysis anytime 60
days before or after application of the waste. I also understand that the sample
should be agitated for a representative sample of the total amount of waste in the
storage pond. The sample was taken when the manure level was very low and
therefore could have skewed the resulting analysis.
Mr. Bealle suggested that next time, should such a result reoccur, that I send in a
second sample. I did not realize that was something I could do and will follow that
suggestion next time if it occurs.
Should you have any questions or need to contact me for anything else call my cell at
[phone].
Sincerely,
Dan Hunsucker

Mr.Bealle,
In response to your NOV- 2008 — PC- 0704 to Hunsucker Farms LLC Facility 18-
13, I submit the following written explanation as a follow up to your phone call inquiring
about the missing Spring ` 07 waste analysis.
In November ` 06 my father was diagnosed with lung cancer. Doctors would not
operate on the tumor due to his age and the location of the tumor. The treatment was to
use radiation and chemo therapy. Thus began the trips to the doctor 3-4 times / week,
many sleepless nights trying to help make him comfortable, loss of appetite leading to 60
pound weight loss until he ended up in the hospital with a feeding tube and morphine to
ease the pain. This went on until his death in October' 07.
I thought I handled the situation [ by averaging all the prior samples ] in a
reasonable manner therefore not deserving a NOV. I realize you have rules that must be
followed, but in the overall scheme of things and events of the past year, you have to
admit this infraction was quite inconsequential.
However, I understand the authority that your Division holds and will be sure to
have waste samples sent in a timely manner in the future so as to avert any environmental
catastrophe.
Sincerely,
Dan A. Hunsucker

Dear Mr. Hunsucker:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on July 23,
2001. Based upon his review of your files, it was noted that the Certificate of Coverage and a
record of the storage pond liquid levels were not available for review. Therefore, this letter is
being issued as a Notice of Violation (NOV), Failure to provide a record of the storage pond's
weekly freeboard level is a violation of Section III, 1 of your Certificate of Coverage. You also
failed to have available a copy of the Certificate. Failure to do so is a violation of Section I, 4.
It is requested that a written response be submitted to this Office by August 18, 2001
indicating the actions taken to correct the noted violations. Please address your response to the
attention of Mr. Johnson. It is also requested that your response reference the date and subject of

Hunsucker Dairy
Cattle Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Catawba County
Dear Dewey Hunsucker:
On June 11, 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your application received on February 27, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Dewey
Hunsucker, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWC180013 which expires October 1, 2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Hunsucker Dairy, located in Catawba County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 235 Dairy cattle 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. 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 keepin;
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
taws, 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
Water Quality Staff may be reached at [phone]. If you need additional information concerning
this COC or the General Permit, please contact J.R. Joshi at [phone].

Additional Information Request
Hunsucker Dairy, Animal Waste Operation
Catawba County
Dear Dewey Hunsucker:
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 October 9, 1999:
1. When utilizing soybeans in a crop rotation, residual nitrogen should be accounted for in the next crop. It appears
that the nitrogen residual from soybeans is not accounted for in the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) submitted.
Please contact your technical specialist to review your WUP and revise the WUP to account for residual nitrogen
from soybeans, if necessary.
2. Please indicate whether or not you own all of the land used for waste application. If you do not, please provide
signed and dated lease agreements or other land use agreements for land not owned by you.
3. There should be a signature page or certification page included in your WUP that has the farm owner, the farm
manager, and the technical specialist's signature. I was unable to find this page in your application package.
Please provide this.
4. On the fields that are not in fescue, there are cropping options listed out in the WUP. Please contact your
technical specialist to include a statement in your WUP about the maximum amount of acres that can be planted
in soybeans in one year and still utilize all the nitrogen produced by the facility. This statement is necessary due
to the fact that if all fields with options for crops were planted in soybeans in one year, there would less nitrogen
taken up than produced (this includes the nitrogen uptake from the fescue fields).
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 October 9, 1999 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 364.

Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 18-13
Catawba County
Dear Dewey Hunsucker:
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. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR], 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
Hunsucker Dairy, Facility #: 18-13
Catawba County, NC
Dear Mr. Hunsucker:
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
unpermitted discharge, besides facing civil penalties, the facility could be required to
apply for an individual permit. Currently, most farms are operating under a general
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.

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 (N)-Application for Common Cro s:
• 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
producer 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].

Dear Mr. Hunsucker:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on May
28, 1998. Your waste utilization plan was missing the list of crops on which the waste
would be applied. Please contact your technical specialist to obtain the Iist and any other
pertinent information. It was noted that there is some runoff from the paved Iot. Although
it does not appear to be a problem, you should be sure that the vegetation at the point
where the runoff leaves the paved area is maintained. Also, the vegetation on the storage
pond should be cut.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact

DMSION OF WATER QUALITY
September 15, 1997
Subject: Certification/Notice of Violations
Hunsucker Dairy, Facility #: 18-13
Catawba 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 lagoon. 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 lagoon/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.
PIease 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 $10,000 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

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 OIC.
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

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN

Producer:DEWEY HUNSUCKER
Location: ROCK BARN RD. CONQVE&
Telephone: jQ4-464-1397
Type Operation: DAIRY
Number of Animals: 235 HOLSTEINS
(Design Capacity)
AIM
This animal waste utilization plan has been prepared as a component of
the total waste management system for the HUNSUCKER DAIRY located in
Conover in Catawba County, North Carolina. Such a plan is required in
order to be in compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 as adopted by the
Environmental Management Commission, and may be required as a part of
a cost share program including the North Carolina Agricultural Cost
Share Program whenever cost sharing is provided for components of a
agricultural waste management system.
This plan has been developed with the following as basic objectives:
1. Protection of soil and water resources from improper
application and/or discharge of solid or liquid waste
generated at this operation..
2. Maximum use of animal waste for the production of crops and
forage and the improvement of soil tilth through the
incorporation of organic waste material, while minimizing
the need for commercial fertilizers.
3. Land application of waste in such a manner as to minimize
public criticism and complaint and to avoid potential legal
action either civil or by regulatory agency as a result of
illegal waste discharge.
Never allow the storage tank to overflow or waste to flow around the
tanks and into the stream. This would constitute a direct discharge
and could result in stiff fines if detected by NCDEM.
Sufficient cropland and forage land is available on this farm to apply
waste based on nitrogen requirements. However, Nitrogen may not be
the limiting factor and analytical reports from soil tests should be
used to deter -nine actual field loadinh rates of animal wastes.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Waste should be spread everyday when it is practical and weather and
soil conditions permit between November 15 and April 15. Weather
conditions during this period may be such as to make it very difficult
to manage the waste in accordance with this plan with only 30 days of
waste storage. It will be during this same period that animals are
likely to remain confined on the lot for an extended period. Careful
management of waste during this period is essential.
Early establishment of cover crops and management of both grass and
cover crop for hay and silage will help in managing the waste
application problem. Fields which are accessible during poor weather
conditions should be managed such that waste can be applied to those
fields during critical periods.
Without careful management of waste application year-round, the
following situation will likely result:
1. The waste storage tank will be full
2. weather and soil moisture conditions will be such that most
available fields are not accessible
3. Fields which are accessible have already had waste applied
to them at maximum agronomic rates.
4. Any application of waste at this time represents a violation
of this waste utilization plan. Failure to pump waste out
of the tank will result in overflow of the tank which
constitutes a direct discharge.
This situation can be avoided by proper planning 6 to 12 months in
advance. The following is a recommended method:
1. Make a list of all fields on which waste can be applied
2. Rate each field by how accessible it will be to spreading
equipment during wet and/or freezing weather.
3. Maintain a record of the volume of waste applied to each
field.
4. In good weather apply waste first to fields which are not
easily accessible during poor weather.
5. Save fields which are more accessible during poor weather so
that they are available for waste application in emergency
conditions.
6. Solids may be stacked on the lot under the roof and not
pushed into the tank. Liquids will leach from the stack
pile and enter the tank. Such a stack pile may be difficult
to maintain during wet, humid weather.

. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
7. Establish a goal of allowing the storage tank to get only
half full. This will require regular pumping at least once
a week during favorable weather.
An optional Livestock Waste Spreading Record sheet is attached to help
you in maintaining a record of waste application on each field.
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed to determine nutrient content before each
application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that
all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop
to be grown.
.Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at
greater than 5 tons per acre per year, with special
precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to
10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
(NCDEM) .0200 regulations.
5. wind conditions 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 or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
waste management facility. Attached you will find information
proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste
to the lab for analysis.
Compliance with this Waste Utilization Plan, using
the components as discussed in the Operation and
Maintenance Plan, provides a system that does not
discharge to surface waters and is therefore "deemed
permitted" under the .0200 rules. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the
requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217
(.0200 rules) adopted by the North Carolina
Environmental Management Commission.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
• REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Environmental Management for every day the discharge
continues.
2.
There is sufficient cropland and grassland available on this farm to utilize the
animal waste under a rigid and well managed program of land application.
However, it is anticipated that it will be both necessary and profitable to apply
waste on other nearby tracts not owned by Mr. LANDOWNER NAME. The Field
Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer has long
term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. The producer
shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a
landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him the use of the land
for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3.
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for
realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate
conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the
rate of application for other nutrients.
4.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil
loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DEM. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
5.
Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing.
6.
When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. Flooding of low lying areas can occur at
any time of the year in this area. Typically flooding occurs predominantly due to
thunderstorms during the months from May to October. Most fields which may be
subject to flooding on this farm will normally be in corn silage during this period
and will normally not receive waste application during these months. Required
buffer areas from streams and residential area will generally provide sufficient
buffers from flood prone areas.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
. 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.
S. 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,
J.O. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on
soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up
released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting
of the crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This
distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate
vegetative filter strips are present. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14, Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands
by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior
converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways
that discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates
provided the application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks,
etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm
event in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

Storage and Application System
Catawba County
Dear Dewey Hunsucker:
On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the
Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Cattle Waste Operation General
Permit AWG200000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the
expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with
all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit.
In accordance with your application received on February 27, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Dewey
Hunsucker, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit AWG200000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWC180013 which expired on April 30, 2003.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Hunsucker Dairy, located in Catawba County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 235 Dairy cattle 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 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 Perrnittee 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 Pernuttee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility. ARM

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer:DEWEY HUNSUCKER
Location: ROCK BARN RD. CONOVER, NC
Telephone: [phone] _
Type Operation: DAIRY
Number of Animals: 235 HOLSTEINS
(Design Capacity)
This animal waste utilization plan has been prepared as a component of
the total waste management system for the HUNSUCKER DAIRY located in
Conover in Catawba County, North Carolina. Such a plan is required in
order to be in compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 as adopted by the
Environmental Management Commission, and may be required as a part of
a cost share program including the North Carolina Agricultural Cost
Share Program whenever cost sharing is provided for components of a
agricultural waste management system.
This plan has been developed with the following as basic objectives:
1. Protection of soil and water resources from improper
application and/or discharge of solid or liquid waste
generated at this operation.
2. Maximum use of animal waste for the production of crops and
forage and the improvement of soil tilth through the
incorporation of organic waste material, while minimizing
the need for commercial fertilizers.
3. Land application of waste in such a manner as to minimize
public criticism and complaint and to avoid potential legal
action either civil or by regulatory agency as a result of
illegal waste discharge.
�SMBN'!'CO 31DERATI.ONS
Never allow the storage tank to overflow or waste to flow around the
tanks and into the stream. This would constitute a direct discharge
and could result in stiff fines if detected by NCDEM.
Sufficient cropland and forage land is available on this farm to apply
waste based on nitrogen requirements. However, Nitrogen may not be
the limiting factor and analytical reports from soil tests should be
used to determine actual field loadinh rates of animal wastes.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Waste should be spread everyday when it is practical and weather and
soil conditions permit between November 15 and April 15. Weather
conditions during this period may be such as to make it very difficult
to manage the waste in accordance with this plan with only 30 days of
waste storage. It will be during this same period that animals are
likely to remain confined on the lot for an extended period. Careful
management of waste during this period is essential.
Early establishment of cover crops and management of both grass and
cover crop for hay and silage will help in managing the waste
application problem. Fields which are accessible during poor weather
conditions should be managed such that waste can be applied to those
fields during critical periods.
Without careful management of waste application year-round, the
following situation will likely result:
1. The waste storage tank will be full
2. Weather and soil moisture conditions will be such that most
available fields are not accessible
3. Fields which are accessible have already had waste applied
to them at maximum agronomic rates.
4. Any application of waste at this time represents a violation
of this waste utilization plan. Failure to pump waste out
of the tank will result in overflow of the tank which
constitutes a direct discharge.
This situation can be avoided by proper planning 6 to 12 months in
advance. The following is a recommended method:
1. Make a list of all fields on which waste can be applied
2. Rate each field by how accessible it will be to spreading
equipment during wet and/or freezing weather.
3. Maintain a record of the volume of waste applied to each
field.
4. In good weather apply waste first to fields which are not
easily accessible during poor weather.
5. Save fields which are more accessible during poor weather so
that they are available for waste application in emergency
conditions.
6. Solids may be stacked on the lot under the roof and not
pushed into the tank. Liquids will leach from the stack
pile and enter the tank. Such a stack pile may be difficult
to maintain during wet, humid weather.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
7. Establish a goal of allowing the storage tank to get only
half full. This will require regular pumping at least once
a week during favorable weather.
An optional Livestock Waste Spreading Record sheet is attached to help
you in maintaining a record of waste application on each field.
�'
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed to determine nutrient content before each
application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that
all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop
to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at
greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to
10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
(NCDEM) .0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions 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 or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage
requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
waste management facility. Attached you will find information
proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste
to the lab for analysis.
Compliance with this Waste Utilization Plan, using
the components as discussed in the Operation and
Maintenance Plan, provides a system that does not
discharge to surface waters and is therefore "deemed
permitted" under the .0200 rules. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the
requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217
(.0200 rules) adopted by the North Carolina
Environmental Management Commission.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land
application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
Illegal discharges are subject to the assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day
by the Division of Environmental Management for every day the discharge
continues.
2. There is sufficient cropland and grassland available on this farm to utilize the
animal waste under a rigid and well managed program of land application.
However, it is anticipated that it will be both necessary and profitable to apply
waste on other nearby tracts not owned by Mr. LANDOWNER NAME. The Field
Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer has long
term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. The producer
shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a
landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him the use of the land
for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for
realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate
conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the
rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil
loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DEM. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. Flooding of low lying areas can occur at
any time of the year in this area. Typically flooding occurs predominantly due to
thunderstorms during the months from May to October. Most fields which may be
subject to flooding on this farm will normally be in corn silage during this period
and will normally not receive waste application during these months. Required
buffer areas from streams and residential area will generally provide sufficient
buffers from flood prone areas.
71)

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN!
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.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on
soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up
released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting
of the crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This
distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate
vegetative filter strips are present. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands
by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior
converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a
"technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways
that discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates
provided the application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
If . Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks,
etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm
event in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

Estimated Volume of Waste Produced From 1400 Lb. Dairy Cow:
Manure and Urine: 14 gals/head/day 21(gals)x365(days)=7665 gals/head/year
Excess water usage: 7 gals/head/day
Total: 2 Y gals/headlday 7665(gals)x23 5(head)=1,801,275 total gals/year
Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN):
(Will be based on actual waste analysis)
Assuming 10 lbs. Of N per 1000 gallons of waste.
1,801,275 divided by 1000= 1801
1801 x 10 = 18,010 lbs. Of PAN/YEAR

` xutea trerore planting current spring crop
s Legume planted in previous year or season. More N will be available if the fall -planted
crop immediately follows the legume. On sandy soils and in years with high precipitation, less
N will be available to spring -planted crops.
iI j
Residual N credits need to be estimated when dairy manure is continuously applied to the
same parcel of land. Methodologies and an example calculation can be found in the reference
section in "Dairy Manure as Ferrili_er Source" SoilsFacts AG-439-28.
Residual N credits must be estimated for biosolids. The formulas and methodologies are
outlined in "Land Application of Biosolids" .
Centaoe
Residual N credits are included in the EPA formula for septage and do not need to be added.
See the section containing "Septage Management Based on the 503 regulations".

'On trees less than 5 feet tail. nitrogen will stimulate undergrowth competition.
manure is applied to supply any
nutrient other than nitrogen, apply
the amount suggested by soil -test
recommendations or crop removal
rates (See Extension Service publi-
cation AG-439-16, Nutrient Re-
moval by Crops in North Carolina.)
Because manure usually does not
contain the optimum nutrient
balance required for each field, be
sure to check the soil recommenda-
tions for each nutrient and, if
necessary, supplement with com-
mercial fertilizer as needed. if
annual applications continue to over
apply nutrients, environmental
impacts can occur. Alternative
management strategies should be
implemented before this occurs.
In most cases, dairy producers
use manure to supply the nitrogen
requirements of their crops. Nitro-
gen recommendations for various
crops are listed in Table 4. Adjust
the application rate to match the
yield capability of each field.
Applying more nitrogen than is
required for the crop usually does
not increase yield and can poten-
tially contribute to nitrate contami-
nation of groundwater and to
elevated nitrate concentrations in
forages. Nitrogen recommendations
given on North Carolina soil test
reports are not based on the soil
sample submitted or the yield
capabilities of an individual field or
farm. Soils test report recommenda-
tions reflect a wide range of yield
conditions across the state. To
customize your nitrogen application
rates use the values in Table 4. A
worksheet with an example is
included at the end of this fact sheet
to help you determine the amount of
dairy manure needed for different
crops and fields.
Besides monitoring nutrients,
maintain an adequate soil pH.
Optimum soil pH promotes good
yields, nutrient availability, and
manure decomposition. When dairy
manure is applied at agronomic
rates, high salinity (excess salt) has
not been a problem, given the
amounts of rainfall normally
recieved in North Carolina.
The most recently applied
manure is not the only source of
nutrients; in most fields, some
nutrients are available from previous
manure applications or previous
legume crops. With the exception of
nitrogen, updated soil tests are the
best means of determining nutrient
reserves from these sources. Table 5
can be used to estimate the available
nitrogen carryover from legumes.
Nitrogen carryover from manure is

General Guidelines for Dairies
(August 9, 1996)
1. All solids from paved areas must be collected in a waste storage facility.
Surface runoff from paved areas must be minimized by the use of practices
such as gutters, roofs, and diversion ditches.
2. .all liquids from paved and milking areas must be collected in a waste
storage facility or in some other way treated to insure only a de minimus
discharge of pollutants in a storm event less severe than the 25 year, 24
hour storm event. For any facility wishing to install a system other than a
waste storage facility, a request must be made for a site specific
determination in accordance with the criteria established in 19.F, of the
THIRD Guidance Memo dated .august 9, 1996.
3. All dry stacks must include either a roof and be able to retain all liquids; or
all liquids must be handled like those from paved and milking areas as
described in item 2 above.
4. A 100 foot filter strip must be established ber5veen lounging areas that are
tvpically void of vegetation during the winter months and any perennial
streams, 'ponds, and drainage ways. The filter strip must be protected by a
fence. Where a I00-foot filter strip cannot be installed, diversions,
settling basins, or other conservation practices must be used.
5. A filter strip of at least 23 feet must be established bettiveen heavy traffic
areas with sparse vegetation and drainage ways. The filter strip must be
protected by a fence.
6. Perennial streams surrounded by a good stand of pasture must be protected
by a fence when the streams are in pastures that are in close proximity to
the dairy operations or when the lives tock'typically cross the stream from
the pasture to get to the barn, Eroded or barren stream banks due to
animal traffic are evidence that animal exclusion is needed.
7. Where stream buffers are intended for runoff pollutant filtering,
measures to minimize channelization and promote sheet flow must be
installed and maintained.
B. Stream crossings must be installed where needed.
9. Stock trails must be installed as needed.
10. A properly designed and implemented Waste Utilization .Plan crust be
developed and implemented.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
r'
Producer:DEWEY HUNSUCKER
Location:
Telephone:[phone]
Type Operation:- DAIRY
Number of Animals: 235 HOL TEINS
(Design Capacity)
This animal waste utilization plan has been prepared as a component of
the total waste management system for the HUNSUCKER DAIRY located in
Conover in Catawba County, North Carolina. Such a plan is required in
order to be in compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 as adopted by'the
Environmental Management Commission, and may be required as a part of
a cost share program including the North Carolina Agricultural Cost
Share Program whenever cost sharing is provided for components of a
agricultural waste management system.
This plan has been developed with the following as basic objectives:
1. Protection of soil and water resources from improper
application and/or discharge of solid or liquid waste
generated at this operation.
2. Maximum use of animal waste for the production of crops and
forage and the improvement of soil tilth through the
incorporation of organic waste material, while minimizing
the need for commercial fertilizers.
3. Land application of waste in such a manner as to minimize
public criticism and complaint and to avoid potential legal
action either civil or by, regulatory agency as a result of
illegal waste discharge.
Never allow the storage tank to overflow or waste to flow around the
tanks and into the stream. This would constitute a direct discharge
and could result in stiff .fines if detected by NCDEM.
Sufficient cropland and forage land is available on this farm to apply
waste based on nitrogen requirements. However, Nitrogen may not*be
the limiting factor and analytical reports from soil tests should be
used to determine actual field loadinh rates of animal wastes.
1

• WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Waste should be spread everyday when it is practical and weather and
soil conditions permit between November 15 and April 15. Weather
conditions during this period may be such as to make it very difficult
to manage the waste in accordance with this plan with only 30 days of
waste storage. It will be during this same period that animals are
likely to remain confined on the lot for an extended period. Careful
management of waste during this period is essential.
Early establishment of cover crops and management of both grass and
cover crop for hay and silage will help in managing the waste
application problem'. Fields which are accessible during poor weather
conditions should be managed such that waste can be applied to those
fields during critical periods.
Without careful management of waste application year-round, the
following situation will likely result:
1.. The waste storage tank will be full
2. Weather and soil moisture conditions will be such that most
available fields are not accessible
3. Fields which are accessible have already had waste applied
to them at maximum agronomic rates.
4. Any application of waste at this time represents a violation
of this waste utilization plan. Failure to pump waste out
of the tank will result in overflow of the tank which
constitutes a direct discharge.
This situation can be avoided by proper planning 6 to 12 months in
advance. The following is a recommended method:
1. Make a list of all fields on which waste can be applied
2. Rate each field by how accessible it will be to spreading
equipment during wet and/or freezing weather.
3. Maintain a record of the volume of waste applied to each
field.
4. In good weather apply waste first to fields which are not
easily accessible during poor weather.
5. Save fields which are more accessible during poor weather so
that they are available for waste application in emergency
conditions.
6. Solids may be stacked on the lot under the roof and not
pushed into the tank. Liquids will leach from the stack
pile and enter the tank. Such a stack pile may be difficult
to maintain during wet, humid weather.
1)

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
7. Establish a goal of allowing the storage tank to get only
half full.. This will require regular pumping at least once
a week during favorable weather.
An optional Livestock Waste Spreading Record sheet is attached to help
you in maintaining a record of waste application on each field.
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at.a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops
in the fields where the waste is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed to determine nutrient content before each
application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that
all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop
to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to
ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be
grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply
more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration
rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at
greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special
precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to
10 tons per acre per year.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining,
or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions
may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
(NCDEM) .0200 regulations.
5. Wind conditions 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 or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 Environmental Management for every day the discharge
continues.
2.
There is sufficient cropland and grassland available on this farm to utilize the
animal waste under a rigid and well managed program of land application.
However, it is anticipated that it will be both necessary and profitable to apply
waste on other nearby tracts not owned by Mr. LANDOWNER NAME. The Field
Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer has long
term access to adequate land an which to properly apply the waste. The producer
shall provide NRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a
landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him the use of the land
for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste
Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3.
Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for
realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate
conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the
rate of application for other nutrients.
4.
Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System
(RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil
loss shall be no greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to
"Buffers" required by DEM. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
5.
Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application.
Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing.
6.
When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not
occur during a season prone to flooding. Flooding of low lying areas can occur at
any time of the year in this area. Typically flooding occurs predominantly due to
thunderstorms during the months from May to October. Most fields which may be
subject to flooding on this farm will normally be in corn silage during this period
and will normally not receive waste application during these months. Required
buffer areas from streams and residential area will generally provide sufficient
buffers from flood prone areas.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
• 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.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on
soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up
released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting
,I of the crop on bare soil.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This
distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided adequate
vegetative filter strips are present. If waste application on such fields is desired or
anticipated, contact the YOUR COUNTY County Soil and Water Conservation
District for assistance in planning and installing the appropriate filter strips.
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-
ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways or wetlands
y a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior
bnverted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a
echnical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways
at discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates
ovided the application 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. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures must maintain a
maximum operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm
event in addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.

18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed
areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the
vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are
limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures should be inspected regularly for
evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate
the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a
regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.
21. Highly visible permanent markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom
elevations of the temporary storage of the animal waste storage structure.
PUMPING, HAULING, OR CLEAN -OUT shall be managed to maintain the liquid
level between the markers. A marker is also required to mark the maximum storage
volume for waste storage ponds.
22. Soil tests shall be made every two years.
Liquid waste analysis will be needed as per the waste management plan.
Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years.
23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets NC regulations.

'Annual maintenance guidelines.
2F4educe nitrogen rate by 25 percent when grazed only.
30n trees less than 5 feet tall, nitrogen will stimulate undergrowth competition.
manure is applied to supply any
nutrient other than nitrogen, apply
the amount suggested by soil -test
recommendations or crop removal
rates (See Extension Service publi-
cation AG-439-16, Nutrient Re-
moval by Crops in North Carolina.)
Because manure usually does not
contain the optimum nutrient
balance required for each field, be
snze to check the soil recommenda-
tions for each nutrient and, if
necessary, supplement with com-
mercial fertilizer as needed. If
annual applications continue to over
apply nutrients, environmental
impacts can occur. Alternative
management strategies should be
implemented before this occurs.
In most cases, dairy producers
use manure to supply the nitrogen
requirements of their crops. Nitro-
gen recommendations for various
crops are listed in Table 4. Adjust
the application rate to match the
yield capability of each field.
Applying more nitrogen than is
required for the crop usually does
not increase yield and can poten-
tially contribute to nitrate contami-
nation of groundwater and to
elevated nitrate concentrations in
forages. Nitrogen recommendations
given on North Carolina soil test
reports are not based on the soil
sample submitted or the yield
capabilities of an individual field or
farm. Soils test report recommenda-
tions reflect a wide range of yield
conditions across the state. To
customize your nitrogen application
rates use the values in Table 4. A
worksheet with an example is
included at the end of this fact sheet
to help you determine the amount of
dairy manure needed for different
crops and fields.
Besides monitoring nutrients,
maintain an adequate soil pH.
Optimum soil pH promotes good
yields, nutrient availability, and
manure decomposition. When dairy
manure is applied at agronomic
rates, high salinity (excess salt) has
not been a problem, given the
amounts of rainfall. normally
recieved in North Carolina.
The most recently applied
manure is not the only source of
nutrients; in most fields, some
nutrients are available from previous
manure applications or previous
legume crops. With the exception of
nitrogen, updated soil tests are the
best means of determining nutrient
reserves from these sources. Table 5
can be used to estimate the available
nitrogen carryover from legumes.
Nitrogen carryover from manure is

Waste Management System for Mr. Dewey Hunsucker
Mr. Hunsucker hopes to expand his dairy operation to milk 235 cows. Presently he
milks approximately 150 cows.
Solids will be scraped from the loafing barn and holding lot into the waste stor-d ge
pond.
Approximately a acre of runoff cannot be diverted away from the pond and must be
included. This will be the runoff from the holding lot and two adjacent roofs:
SCS has also been asked to include the milkhouse wash water volume into the
holding pond design volume as Mr. Hunsucker may eventually use the milkhouse wash —
water to flush the concrete holding lot floor.
Due to existing structures, the push ramp cannot be centered on the holding pond.
To fit into the building arrangement, the ramp must be located on the northwest
end of the holding pond near the corner.
Some specifications from the Extension Service have been incorporated into this
design, such as agitation procedures. Due to loaning the holding pond at one end,
Mr. Hunsucker has been advised that timely and correct agitation will be necessary
to evenly distribute solids. Pre—drawdown agitation prior to tank spreading will
be manditory. To this end, the top width of the dam on the north, east, and south
sides will be-12.0 feet wide with the west side 14.0 feet wide to accomodate a
tractor and agitator. Push ramp specifications are from the Extension Service,
and the Extension Agent has agreed to be with us during this construction
activity.
An emergency spillway will be provided. Due to the location, a pipe spillway will
be used.
Adequate diversions and drop basins are planned to safely convey runoff away
from the holding pond. All exposed soil is to be seeded and mulched as soon
after construction as possible.

This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following
major components:
MILK PARLOR WASTE WATER COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM
WASTE HOLDING POND
CLEAN WATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
and the following associated components
CONCRETE CURBING
LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION
CRITICAL AREA PLANTING
All solid waste will be scraped from the lots and stored.in the
WASTE HOLDING POND STRUCTURE. The WASTE HOLDING POND is designed
to.provide 180 days storage for the solid and liquid wastes
produced by 235 head HOLSTEINS herd .
All contaminated runoff will flow into the WASTE HOLDING POND.
This structure is designed to provide storage for normal rainfall
runoff from the feedlot and waste water from the milk parlor for
a 180 day period, and provide storage space for the twenty-five
(25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot
and any watershed into the pond.
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.

OVERVIEW
The MILK PARLOR WASTE WATER COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM consists
of a floor drain and plastic pipe which runs underground from the
milk parlor to beneath the concrete push -off ramp and into the
WASTE HOLDING POND.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the concrete components of the WASTE WATER COLLECTION AND
PIPING SYSTEM for cracks or other damages. Make sure the floor
drain and piping system are clear and flowing freely. Make
repairs and replace as needed.
•
•

. 2 . TASTE HOLDING_ POND
OVERVIEW
The WASTE HOLDING POND is designed to store the average feedlot
runoff and waste water from the milk barn plus solid and liquid
animal waste from 235 Holsteins for a 280 day period. Additional
storage space is included to contain the twenty-five (25) year,
twenty-four (24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot. A tile
block is installed in the cut side of the pond indicating the
level of storage available prior to infringing on the 25 year, 24
hour storm capacity. The WASTE HOLDING POND consists of an
earthen dam, clay liner, concrete splash block with curbing for
discharging contaminated water into the structure. A 10 inch
diameter PVC pipe is used as emergency spillway which leads into
a drop box.
OPERATION
The service life of the WASTE HOLDING POND will be determined by
the level of management for the entire system. How effectively
the lot is scraped and your ability to time the scraping of the
lot before each storm event will determine the amount of solids
which reach the WASTE HOLDING POND . Once the solids have
reached the WASTE HOLDING POND, how effectively the waste is
agitated will determine the amount of solids which remain in the
WASTE HOLDING POND.
Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the
WASTE HOLDING POND. The accumulated solids should not reduce the
usable capacity of the WASTE HOLDING POND to a point which
requires removal of the solids for many years JE adequate lot
scraping and 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 HOLDING POND to the
point that some form of dredging will be required. If a large
volume of solid waste is allowed to wash from the lot and/or 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
HOLDING 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.
C7

i2 WASTE HOLDING POND (continued)
MAINTENANCE
The concrete floor of the feed lot and push -off ramp should be
inspected periodically for major cracks. Vegetation on the dam
should be inspected periodically and reseeded 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 of 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
CATAWBA Soil & Water Conservation District office.

3-.--CLFAN WATER COLLECTION Ar PIPING!
OVERVITff
The CLEAN WATER COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM consists of roof
gutters on part of the free stall barns which drains to an open
ditch that is diverted from the WASTE HOLDING POND and into a
concrete drop box. Rain water from the free stall barns that are
not guttered is also diverted from the WASTE HOLDING POND by open
ditches that run to the concrete drop box. The concrete drop box
outlets via 1.0 inch concrete pipe into a pasture below the WASTE
HOLDING POND.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the gutters, ditches, drop box and concrete outlet pipe
annually. Keep ditches groomed and maintain vegetative growth.
Maintain lid, check for cracks in concrete, remove accumulated
sediment and debris in the drop box as needed. Check concrete
outlet pipe for cracks and debris that could slow flow..

OVERVIEW
The CONCRETE CURBING constructed on the lot will prevent
contaminated liquids from entering the stream in any storm less
severe than the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour
storm.
MAINTENANCE
The concrete should be inspected periodically for major cracks.

•

•
OVERVIEW
LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION will be installed at locations as indicated
on plan maps. LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION will be installed according to
NRCS standard 382 (Fencing).
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION periodically for mechanical
damage or rot. If fencing wire becomes loose, re -tighten to
original specifications. If fence posts are rotted or damaged in
any way, replace damaged posts with a post which meets the
original specifications.

6. CRITIQU AREA PLANTING
OVERVIEW
Any areas of exposed soil which will not be covered by a
structure shall be seeded to permanent vegetation. CRITICAL AREA
PLANTING applies to the VEGETATED DIVERSION and Dam.
MAINTENANCE
Fertilizer and lime should be applied•either during September -
October or February -March. Vegetation should be inspected
periodically and reseeded as needed to insure a vigorous stand.
It is essential that neither vehicles nor livestock be allowed to
use any area that has been treated with CRITICAL AREA PLANTING as
a travel lane. All CRITICAL AREA PLANTING should•be mowed at
least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing operations must
take place only when the soil is dry and vegetation should not be
mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches at any time. Do
not mow cool season grasses during periods when plants are
showing signs of drought stress.
•
�J

•
PESTICIDE USE
Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides
so that desirable vegetation, especially that of the VEGETATED
DIVERSION and 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 CATAWBA Soil and Water conservation District•if
repairs or major modifications are required for any of the
components of this Waste Management System.

Chapter 13
651.1303 Safety
Operation, Maintenance, and Safety Part 651
Agricultural Waste Management
Field Handbook
Safety hazards are inherent to an agricultural waste
management system. Some of these hazards lie hidden
and await the unsuspecting. Others may be more
obvious, but are just as formidable to the careless. For
these reasons, attention to safety must always be given
first consideration in the planning, design, construc-
tion, and operation of an AWMS.
Hazards associated with an AWMS can be minimized
by incorporating safety features in the design and
consequent construction of AWMS components. The
AWMS plan needs to address operation and mainte-
nance of these safety features. The safe operation
requires that those involved in its operation be aware
of the system's hazards, follow procedures of safe
operation, and maintain its safety features. These
0 cedures must be clearly defined in the AWMS plan.
ards associated with an AWMS are many and lurk
in each of its functions. Because safety hazards of
similar nature are not limited to one function, they will
be described as those associated with gases, impound-
ments, and equipment operation.
Most states have rules and regulations for occupa-
tional safety and health in agricultural operations. The
state occupational safety and health agency should be
contacted to determine applicable regulations. The
AWMS plan should be developed to be in accordance
with these rules and regulations and the type of haz-
ards that will be involved in the AWMS.
(a) Hazards from gases
A variety of gases can be generated in the operation of
an AWMS. Some of these gases are toxic and can
cause illness and even death at relatively low concen-
trations. Other gases are not toxic, but can displace
oxygen and result in asphyxiation. What makes these
gases especially insidious is that some are colorless
and odorless, and defy detection except with special -
IWequipment. Colorless gases produced by an
S include carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrogen
.,ulfide, and methane. Numerous odorous gases are
produced by an AWMS. These gases fall into the gen-
eral classification of amines, amides, mercaptans,
sulfides, and disulfides.
No direct tie between odors and safety problems has
been found; however, odors can be a nuisance and
cause complaints and even lawsuits. As such, they are
an important consideration in the operation of an
AWMS and need to be minimized. Chapter 8, Siting
Agricultural Waste Management Systems, describes
ways that odor problems can be minimized.
Gases can accumulate in any area of an AWMS where
proper ventilation is not provided, such as animal
housing and covered manure impoundments. Certain
activities, such as agitation, can release gases that can
cause problems if the facility is not properly venti-
lated. The major gases that may be produced by an
AWMS and the consequences if these gases are en-
countered by humans and animals are described in the
following paragraphs.
(1) Gases produced in an AWMS
Carbon dioxide (CO2)—Carbon dioxide is'a by-
product of manure decomposition. Most of the gas
bubbling up from storage and lagoons is CO2. Carbon
dioxide is not highly toxic in itself, but contributes to
oxygen deficiency or asphyxiation. Concentrations
above 10 percent (by volume) can cause a human to
pant violently, and at increased levels are narcotic
even if adequate oxygen is available. At 25 percent
concentration, death occurs to humans after a few
hours. Animals can tolerate up to a 7 to 9 percent CO2
concentration, but with considerable discomfort.
Concentrations above 10 percent may cause dizziness
and even unconsciousness in animals.
Ammonia (NH3)—Ammonia is released from fresh
manure and anaerobic decomposition. Odors from as
little as 0,0001 percent concentration can be detected
and identified. Mixtures over 16 percent with air are
explosive. Low concentrations, 0.0025 to 0.0030 per-
cent, can irritate eyes and the respiratory tract of
humans; higher levels can cause suffocation. Ammonia
is an irritant to animals at concentrations up to 0.02
percent inducing sneezing, salivation, and appetite
loss. Above 0.005 percent, eye inflammation develops
in chickens. Prolonged exposure may increase respira-
tory diseases and pneumonia.

Chapter 13
Operation, Maintenance, and Safety Pail. 651
Agricultural Waste Management
Field Handbook
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S)—Hydrogen sulfide is pro-
duced by anaerobic decomposition of organic wastes.
It smells like rotten eggs at low concentrations, but
cannot be detected at higher concentrations because
it overpowers the sense of smell. High concentrations
can be released by agitation and pumping. H2S is the
most toxic gas associated with manure storage, being
both an irritant and asphyxiant. It is also flammable.
Low concentrations severely irritate the eyes and
respiratory tract of humans within an hour. Concen-
trations of 0.1 percent cause immediate unconscious-
ness and death through respiratory paralysis. Animals
living continuously in facilities where the level of H2S
is 0.002 percent develop nervousness, appetite loss,
and fear of light. Concentrations at 0.005 to 0.02
percent can cause vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.
Methane (CH4)—Methane is an odorless gas pro-
duced by anaerobic decomposition of organic wastes.
It is not normally considered a toxic gas; however, it is
highly explosive when mixed with air in concentra-
tions as low as 5 percent. Lighter than air, methane
tends to accumulate near the top of stagnant corners
of buildings or covered manure impoundments. Accu-
mulations of methane can be asphyxiating to both
humans and animals; however, explosions are a more
serious concern.
Carbon monoxide (CO) —Carbon monoxide gases in
an AWMS result from operation of internal combus-
tion engines and from gas, oil, and coal heaters rather
than the decomposition of organic wastes. CO is
mentioned because it is generated by equipment used
in the operation of an AWMS. It is a colorless, odor-
less, toxic gas that can cause drowsiness at low con-
centrations and death at high concentrations.
(2) Gas hazard situation categories
Gases generated by an AWMS can be lethal if ventila-
tion systems break down, during agitation of waste,
and in poorly ventilated confined spaces, such as
manure tanks including those that are uncovered. The
hazards to both humans and animals include death,
incapacitation, impairment of the ability to self rescue,
or acute illness. A hazardous atmosphere occurs when
flammable gases and vapors reach their flammable
limit, when oxygen concentration is below 19.5 per-
cent or above 23.5 percent, and when concentration of
toxic gases exceeds permissible exposure limits. The
AWMS plan should address these hazards and how to
appropriately remediate or improve them. It is impor-
tant that others, such as family members, who may
frequent an AWMS be aware of the hazards of these
situations as well.
Ventilation breakdowns —Ventilation depends on
properly operating fans or vents. With no natural
drafts to replenish the air in confined areas, death by
asphyxiation from lack of oxygen and increased car-
bon dioxide, by poisoning from other gases, or by
some combination of these can occur. Operators must
be alert to failure of ventilation systems and take
immediate action to either repair the system or acti-
vate a backup system until repairs can be made. Op-
erators must also be aware of the dire consequences
of purposely blocking ventilation systems, which may
be considered during cold weather to reduce heat loss.
Agitation --Agitation of wastes to facilitate transfer
and other waste management functions is a common
practice in an AWMS. This activity may release large
quantities of noxious gases and create dangerous and
possible lethal conditions even with maximum ventila-
tions. If agitation is done outdoors, it seldom is a
problem; however, lethal conditions are a potential
when it is done within buildings. To minimize the
hazards, agitation should be done on mild days so the
building can be ventilated to full capacity. For natu-
rally ventilated buildings, it is best done on windy
days. Animals should be removed from the building
before the agitation is started, but if they are not
removed, they should be observed for signs of ill
effects.
Confined space --Death resulting from persons
entering a covered waste storage tank or, other con-
fined space in an AWMS occurs all too often in the
United States. Multiple deaths frequently occur when
the first person to enter the confined space and the
would-be rescuers all succumb to the atmosphere of
the facility. These are tragic occurrences, and every
safety precaution should be used to prevent them.
(210•vi-AWMFH, May 1996)

Operation, Maintenance, and Safety Part 651
Often a person enters a tank as a spur-of-the-moment
reaction to the desperate need for assistance to an
animal or person who has accidentally fallen into the
facility. Steps can be taken to avoid this type of acci-
dent. First, the AWMS design should include, and its
plan should indicate, maintenance of such devices as
grates and covers that prevent accidental entry from
happening. Design consideration should also be given
to:
• Features that minimize the need for confined
space entry.
■ Provisions that allow for maintenance of equip-
ment outside the space or for equipment parts
that can be easily retracted for maintenance.
• Corrosion resistant equipment that performs
with minimum maintenance in caustic environ-
ments.
a Power ventilation systems that provide for both
a supply of fresh air and exhaust of accumu-
lated gases.
Aftndly, the people who operate or frequent an
JJWS must be made aware of the absolute rule that
one enters these facilities under any circumstance
unless preparations have been made for their safe
entry. Signs (fig. 13-5) should be prominently posted
and maintained that warn of the hazard. Children and
those that cannot read must be given special instruc-
tion to assure that they are aware of the hazard.
Entry into a confined space is sometimes necessary
Examples include:
• To inspect a tank for cracks and leaks.
• To rescue someone or something.

Confined spaces should, however, only be entered
after preparations have been made for a safe entry.
For this reason, the AWMS plan needs to address safe
entry into confined spaces.
Some States may regulate entry into confined spaces
for agricultural operations. The appropriate occupa-
tional and safety agency should be contacted to deter-
mine what the requirements are. The U.S. Department
of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administra-
tion, has rules and regulations on entering confined
spaces (Federal Register 1993). The regulatory aspects
of these rules do not apply to agriculture. However,
from a safety standpoint these rules should be fol-
lowed to ensure the safety of persons required to enter
hazardous confuted spaces. Following is a summary of
the practical aspects of these rules as they apply to
entry of AWMS confined spaces:
Any condition making it unsafe to remove an
entrance cover to a confined space shall be
eliminated before the cover is removed.
When entrance covers are removed, the open-
ing shall be promptly guarded by a railing,
temporary cover, or other temporary barrier
that will prevent an accidental fall through the
opening and will protect persons working in
the space from objects entering the space.
Before a person enters the space, the internal
atmosphere shall be tested with a calibrated
direct -reading instrument for the following
conditions in the order given:
1. Oxygen content
2. Flammable gases and vapors
3. Potential toxic air contaminants

• No hazardous atmosphere can be within the A well thought-out plan of action for dealing with
space whenever any person is inside the space. emergencies involving accidental entry into confined
• Continuous forced air ventilation shall be used
as follows:
t A person may not enter the space until the
forced air ventilation has eliminated any
hazardous atmosphere.
t The forced air ventilation shall be so di-
rected as to ventilate the immediate areas
where a person is or will be present within
the space and shall continue until all persons
have left the space.
i The air supply for the forced air ventilation
shall be from a clean source and may not
increase the hazards in the space.
• No one should enter a confined space without a
qualified safety watcher stationed outside the
space. Persons entering confined space should
know the Hazards that may be faced during
entry, be equipped with a full body harness
with a retrieval line attached to a mechanical
rescue device, and be able to communicate
with a safety watcher. The safety watcher must
be able to communicate with those inside the
space and be able to perform the actions re-
quired to retrieve those inside the space.
• The atmosphere within the space shall be
periodically tested as necessary to ensure that
the continuous forced air ventilation is prevent-
ing accumulation of a hazardous atmosphere.
• If a hazardous atmosphere is detected during
entry:
# Each person shall leave the space immedi-
ately.
The space shall be evaluated to determine
how the hazardous atmosphere developed.
Measures shall be implemented to protect
persons from the hazardous atmosphere
before any subsequent entry takes place.
To fully implement the above procedure, the AWMS
plan should recommend employing a safety profes-
sional who has the training and the testing equipment
necessary to ensure a safe confined space entry. Local
or State Government safety agencies may provide this
service upon request. Some States require insurance
companies that supply coverage for occupational
accidents to provide their clients with consultation
services on safety related problems.
spaces needs to be included in the AWIVIS plan. The
plan should recommend that the decisionmaker edu-
cate all who are involved in the operation of an AWMS
in carrying out the plan. An AWMS plan should:
Include a rescue service that could be called
for assistance in an emergency.
Suggest that equipment needed for emergency
rescue, such as self contained breathing appa-
ratus, life lines, and harnesses, be close at
hand.
Address the specific hazards from gases in
each of the applicable functions of the AWMS.
Safety equipment used in confined space is described
in chapter 12.
(b) Hazards with impoundments
Impoundment type components, such as waste storage
ponds, waste treatment lagoons, and waste storage.
tanks, present a drowning hazard. The hazard for
earthen waste impoundments is similar to that associ-
ated with any farm pond. However, crusts that may
form on the water surface and slime formation make
waste impoundments more hazardous.
Crusts have the appearance that they would support a
person's weight; however, they often will not. The
consequence of falling through the crust on a waste
impoundment would be similar to falling through the
ice on a pond ---there is no escape. Slime that forms on
the surface of impoundments makes them very slip-
pery, and as such makes it easy for a person to loose
their footing on inclines. In cold climates, ice forma-
tion can make any surface unsafe. Geotextile liners are
generally smooth, and when wet they are so slippery a
foothold cannot be achieved.

Chapter 13

Operation, Maintenance, and Safety
The best approach to minimizing the hazards of
drowning in waste impoundments is to include fea-
tures in the design to exclude both animals and people
(fig. 13-6). This can be accomplished with fences and
warning signs. Gates should be locked to limit access
except to those who need to enter the impoundment
area Provision needs to be provided for emergency
exit in case someone accidentally enters these areas.
Prominent signs indicating the hazard should be
displayed. The AWMS plan needs to emphasize the
importance of maintaining these safety features.
On some occasions, personnel must operate near
these impoundments. The AWMS plan should recom-
mend that Iife rings, life lines, poles, and boats be
close at hand to assist in making a rescue.

Design of push -off ramps should include:
• Sturdy guard rails to prevent people and equip-
ment from falling into waste impoundments.
• Loading ramps with a traction surface to mini-
mize slipping.
• Walkways constructed of nonslip surfaces -
People can do little to escape if they fall into a storage
tank with vertical walls. The side of the tank is slick
and has nothing to hang onto unless it is provided. For
this reason tank access should be limited to those who
have need for entry. A ladder on the outside of the
tank should terminate above the reach of people or
should have locked entry guards.

Chapter 13
Operation, Maintenance, and Safety
Some tanks have platforms for such equipment as
solid/liquid separators and pumps. The platform
should be equipped with guard rails to prevent acci-
dental falls into the'tank. A rope dangling from the
platform would allow improved opportunity for
survival from an accidental fall from the platform into
the tank.
Providing a means of survival from accidental entry
should also be considered for below -ground tanks;
however, whatever is done should never invite entry
Examples of things to consider include:
• A ladder hinged to the tank cover that can be
pulled down with a rope to allow escape.
• Perches installed on the tank floor or wall that
a person can stand on to attain fresh air and
call for help.
The AAIMS plan should discuss the specific hazards of
impoundments in each applicable function. Generally,
this hazard would be discussed in an AWMS plan for
systems that have waste storage ponds or tanks in the
storage function and for systems that have waste
treatment lagoons in the treatment function. See
chapter 12, section 651.1204, for additional infonna-
tion on safety equipment for impoundments.
(c) Hazards in egxdpment
operation
Equipment used in an AWMS is varied. Chapter 12,
Waste Management Equipment, describes equipment
used in an AWMS, as well as safety aspects of equip-
ment operation. A few guiding principles in the safe
operation of equipment should be included in the
AWMS plan. Safety procedures should also be in-
cluded. The procedures could include:
• Assuring that moving parts that would expose
an operator to injury are properly guarded.
• Providing and using backup signals on equip-
ment as appropriate.
• Maintaining electrical equipment and assuring
.that it is properly grounded.
Perhaps the most important safety precaution is assur-
ing the equipment operators are trained in the safe use
of the equipment before being allowed to operate it.
Part, 651
Agricultural Waste Management
Field Handbook
This should be recommended in the AWMS plan. It is
equally important that operators only be allowed to
use equipment when they are well rested and not
under the influence of a drug, prescribed or otherwise,
which would impair their ability to operate the equip-
ment safely.
The decisionmaker should be advised in the AWMS
plan of the necessity of requiring workers to use
personal protective equipment when appropriate (fig.
13-7} Rollover protective structures and seat belts
should be on all equipment that is ridden. Safety belts
should be used if there is a potential of falling.
Because many surfaces in an AWMS are slippery,
shoes or boots with soles having good traction should
be used. Tearing protection should be used if the noise
level and duration would contribute to hearing loss.
Operators should use eye and face protection if ma-
chines or operations present potential eye or face
injury. Work areas should be well ventilated. if they
are not, workers should use appropriate respiratory
protection. Proper lighting is also important in provid-
ing a safe work environment.
The AWMS plan should discuss the specific hazards of
the equipment used in each function of the AWMS.

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 property 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.
e. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately.
d. CalI 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.
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.
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 damage 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
704-663-1699. After hours, emergency number: 919-733-3942. Your phone call should include:

ODOR
Odor Control Checklist
On many operations, odor is likely to be the number one community issue for both producers
and the general public. Because people can detect a smell they find offensive, they assume
there is an environmental problem. What are some perceptions of swine odor that your
neighbors and members of your community may have?
SOURCES OF ODOR
The good news,is that odor can be managed by reducing sources of odor. Decomposing
manure is the most obvious source. Generally, decomposing manure that has undergone some
type of anaerobic {without oxygen} breakdown has a more offensive odor. than fresh manure.
The actual odor is the result of the type of nation, animal metabolism, and environmental
conditions in which manure is stared and spread. Decomposing feed and carcasses can also
contribute to odor.

CALIBRATION
Applicators can apply manure, litter and wastewater at varying rates and patterns, depending on forward travel
and/or PTO speed, gear box settings, gate openings, operating pressures• spread widths and overlaps,
Calibration defines the combination of settings and travel speed needed to apply manure, litter or wastewater
at a desired rate and to ensure uniform application.
apread2r gapacily
Liquid spreader capacities are normally rated by the manufacturer in gallons. Multiply gallons by 0.0042 to get
tons.
Solid and semi -solid spreaders are rated by the manufacturer either in bushels or cubic feet (multiply bushels
by 1.24 to get cubic feet). Most spreaders have two rating capacities: 1) struck or level full, and 2) heaped.
Since manures and litters have different densities, an on -farm test should be done. Fill a five -gallon bucket level
full with material to be spread. Do not pack the material in the bucket but ensure that it settles similar to a
loaded spreader, Weigh the bucket full and then empty. Multiply the weight of the contents by 1.5 to get pounds
per cubic feet, Multiply this value times the cubic feet capacity of the spreader and divide by 2C00 to get the
tons of material in a spreader load.
manure weight. Ibs x 1.5 x spreader capacity, ft' _ 2000 = spreader load, tons
Soreadgr Caiibration
Calibration Method 1: This method is most useful for liquid spreaders but can be used for all types. Spread at
least one full load of manure preferably in a square or rectangular field pattern for ease of measuring with
normal overlaps. Measure the length and width of coverage recognizing that the outer fringe areas of the
coverage will receive much lighter applications than the overlapped areas. Multiply the length by the width and
divide by 43560 to determine the coverage area in acres. Divide the tons of manure in the spreader by the
acres covered to determine the application rate in tons per acre.
spreader manure, tons + (coverage length, ft x width, ft + 43560 )
= application rate, tons/acre
Repeat the procedure at different speeds and/or spreader settings until the desired application rate is achieved.
Example:
What forward speed would be needed to apply 6.0 tons litter per acre from a spreader with a 6-ton capacity,
a 5-minute spreading time, and a 25-feet spreading width?
Forward speed, mph = capacity, tons x 495
time,min x width x rate, tons per acre
6 tons x 495
5 min x 25 ft x 6 ton per acre
_ 4 miles per hour
Calibration Method 2: This method is often used for solid and semi -solid spreaders. A tarp or plastic sheet of
about 100 square feet (9'x12', 10`x10', etc.) should be measured for exact surface area (length x width),
weighed using a set of spring -tension or platform scales, then spread and pinned on the field surface. The
spreader should be operated at its normal settings, speed and overlap. With a rear discharge spreader, three
passes should be made: the first directly over the center of the sheet, the other two on opposite sides of the
center at the normal spreader overlap spacing. The sheet with the collected manure should again be weighed.
Subtract the empty sheet weight from the total weight to get the weight of the collected manure, Multiply the
pounds of collected manure by 21.8 and divide by the collection area of the sheet in square feet to get the

application rate in tons per acre. r
collected manure, lbs x 21.8 1 collection area, ft2 application rate, ton slacre
Repeat the procedure using different settings or speeds to obtain the desired appfication rate,
Soreader Pattern Uniformity
To determine the uniformity of spread and the amount of overlap needed, place a line of small pans or trays
equaiiy spaced (2-4 feet apart) across the spreader path. The pans should be a minimum of 12" by 12" or 15".
diameter, no more than 24" by 24", and 2%4" deep. Make one spreading pass directly over the center pan.
Weigh the contents caught in each pan or pour the contents into equaiiy sized glass cylinders or clear plastic
tubes and compare the amount in each. The effective spread width can be found by locating the point on either
side of the path center where the manure contents caught in the containers is half of what it is in the center.
The distance between these points is the effective spread width. The outer fringes of the coverage area beyond
these points should be overlapped on the next path to ensure a uniform rate over the area. "M", 'W', "steeple",
or "topside" pattems are not satisfactory and one or more of the spreader adjustments should be made.

� DOWN ON THE FARM
NEW FABRIC GETS BRUCE OUT 'OF THE MUD
The Marshall farm sits at the
foot of Kaylors Knob in Burke
County, North Carolina. While
not the largest in the county, this
25 acre rolling farm is probably a
more typical family owned farm.
Bruce and his wife Frances raise
25 head of cattle, horses, chickens
and several crops. They also have
a .couple of dogs and even some
geese. 'There's plenty of work for
them, especially since both have
full—time jobs off the farm.
0 PROBLEMS
One of the problems the
Marshails inherited when they
bought the farm ten years ago was
severe soil erosion into the creek
running through their farm.
The cattle were allowed to
access the creek without any
constraints. Over the years many
trails had turned into washed out
gullies and the creek banks were
constantly being eroded away.
Compounding the problem of
the erosion from the livestock
trails was erosion from the feeding
area around the barn. With a
shortage of flat land to choose
from, the barn was built years ago
on a spot less than 75 feet from
the creek. Heavy rains not only
h 4kthe mud from the feeding
but also animal waste
Bruce's new feedlot is now dry and stable
associated with the feeding area.
SOLUTION
With help from the Soil
Conservation Service and the
Agricultural Extension Service,
solutions were designed to confine
the stock, limit their access to the
creek and stabilize the heavy
traffic areas.
Three areas would be fixed: a
500' long stock trail leading the
cattle from a knoll down through
the woods, the feeding lot, and a
creek access.
The stock trail would be a 14'
wide gravel path with wire
fencing on both sides which
would restrict the cattle from the
creek except at the reinforced
area. The SCS recommended
using a heavyweight nonwoven
filter cloth under all stone being
placed on the stock trail, the creek
access, and the feed lot.
The fabric supports the gravel
from being pushed into the mud
during wet weather. Separating
the gravel from' the mud allowed
a 6" cover of crusher run gravel to
stabilize the trails and feedlot.

A total of 320 tons of stone and
' 500 square yards of fabric were
bed The fabric was rolled 15
et wide, by -300 feet long and
weighed 190 lbs. Bruce Marshall
pulled a small trailer to Hickory
and returned with three rolls. A
bit bulky, but certainly not too
heavy., the rolls were spread into
place and held with rebar staples.
Nonwoveri 1citlike" . fabric is
quite flexible to lay flat and
conform to the natural lay of the
trails. It is produced from
nonbiodegradeable polypropylene
fibers that • are resistant to rot,
fungus or any natural breakdown.
Although extremely tough to
_drive large "I" shaped staples
through, the fabric can be cut with
a knife or pair of scissors to fit
any unique pattern. Being thick
and tough, -the fabric becomes a
.separating layer between poor,
,oft, unstable underlying soils and
&is
load bearing stone above.
layer allows the stone to
retain its strength and integrity as
a trail or feed lot.
Keeping the stone out of the
mud means keeping the animals
out of the mud also. A tough task
for a tough fabric, but that is the
function of the filter fabric.
Not only stabilizing soil below
the fabric, a stable trail resists
erosion. Besides soil, valuable
stone is held in place for years of
service without being replaced
with even more expensive stone in
the future.
Easy to install and built to last,
these - new filter fabrics save
money as the years go by. Priced
less than a few inches of stone,
Wric makes a few inches perform
as a foot or more of stone for
many years.
A good investment, not only
recommended but supported by
the Soil Conservation Service for
use with many applications
throughout the farm.
BENEFITS
The . fabric supported gravel
stock trail has now eliminated
most of the erosion through the
woods and will improve as the
be what Bruce will enjoy most.
No longer will he have to stand i
a knee deep mixture of mud
waste through the winter to N
and feed his cattle.
Among many other benefits,
Bruce says his cattle seem calmer
and the new confined areas will
allow Bruce and his wife to work
the livestock without depending
on hired help or neighbors.
The project was a complete
success and a model for others.
!ie stock trail is also reinforced with fabric
undergrowti: cgctation becomes
established. The enclosed stock
trail became an excellent place for
the insecticide wick. The cattle
are treated each time they pass
under the wick, to and from the
creek or feedlot.
The creek access is now
stabilized by eliminating wash into
the creek and providing a sound
creek base for the cattle to stand
on.
The dry and stable feedlot may
The Marshalls have solved erosion
problems that may be as common
and as old as the family farm.

Careful Soil Sampling
The Key to Reliable Soil Vest Information
When you submit soil samples for laboratory analysis, you need and expect reliable
results. Because the test report is used in making decisions about liming and
fertilization, its accuracy can affect your costs and yields. In other words, getting
accurate results can make a difference in dollars and cents.
The reliability of the soil test, however, can be no better than the sample you
submit. For results you can depend on, it is vitally important that you take samples
in a way that accurately represents the soil on your farm.
This publication, tells how to obtain representative soil samples and to submit
them for analysis.
Where to Take Samples
You can obtain an aerial photograph of your
farm -from the county Agricultural Stabiliza-
tion and Conservation Service office
(ASCS). Outline your farm or field bound-
aries directly on the photo or make a larger
and more detailed map using the photo as a
guide. Then assign a permanent code to each
field or management area. Coding the areas
Will enable you to keep records
of the soil treatments applied
and the crop yields obtained
from each area. For your
convenience in submitting soil
samples, assign each area a
code consisting of no more than
three characters ---numbers,
letters, or both.
Every soil sample you sub-
mit for testing should consist of
about IS to 20 cores taken at
random locations throughout
one field or area. A sample
should include cores from no
Keep in mind.that each sample should
represent only one general soil type or
condition. If the field you are sampling
contains areas that are obviously different in
slope, color, drainage, and texture and if
those areas can be fertilized separately,
submit a separate sample (consisting of 15 to
20 cores) for each area. (See Figure 1),

if the soil appears to be uniform Figure 1. Within each field, collect a separate sample

S!OwFacts
When collecting samples, avoid
small areas where the soil condi-
tions are obviously different from
those in the rest of the field —for
example, wet spots, old manure and
urine spots, places where wood piles
have been burned, severely eroded
areas, old building sites, fencerows,
spoil banks, and bum -row areas.
Also avoid the fertilizer bands in
fields where row crops have been
grown. Because samples taken from
these Iocations would not be typical
of the soil in the rest of the field,
including them could produce
misleading results.
Areas within a field where
different crops have been grown in
the past should be sampled sepa-
rately, even if you now plan to grow
the same crop in the whole field.
Areas that have been limed and
fertilized differently from the rest of
the field should also be sampled
separately.
Sampling Problem Areas
In fields or areas where fertility
problems appear to be the cause of
abnormal crop growth, samples
should be collected in a somewhat
different way from samples used for
routine testing. At the same time
you collect topsoil samples, collect
subsoil samples at a depth from 8 to
16 inches, but keep the two types of
samples separate. Follow the
guidelines for collecting a good,
representative sample, taking cores
at random locations throughout the
problem area even though it may be
relatively small, At the same time,
collect a representative sample from
normal areas of the same field.
More detailed information on
collecting samples from problem
areas is given in form AD2, "Prob-
lem Area Soil Sample Information."
Copies can be obtained from your
county Extension Center, North
Carolina Department of Agriculture
regional agronomists, local agri-
businesses, or the NCDA Agro-
nomic Division, Blue Ridge Road
Center, Raleigh, NC 27611.
When to Take Samples
Collect samples three to six months
before planting time. You will then
have the test report in time to plan
your liming and fertilization
program before the busy planting
season. If you submit samples
immediately after harvest in the fall,
you are likely to receive the results
promptly because the laboratory
work load is lighter at that time than
in the spring, if possible, try to
collect your samples at the same
time every year.
Do not collect samples when the
soil is too wet because it will be
difficult to mix the cores. As a rule,
if the soil is too wet to plow, it is
too wet to sample.
Sample the soil from perennial
or sod -crop areas three to four .
months before establishing the crop
or applying lime or fertilizer.
How Often to Sample
If your farm is in the coastal plain
region, it is best to test the soil
every two to three years. The sandy
soils in that region do not hold
nutrients as long as soils in the other
parts of the state and are more apt to
become acid through the addition of
nitrogen. The nutrient levels in the
silt and clay loam soils of the
piedmont and mountain regions
change less rapidly with lime and
fertilizer applications. In these
areas, soil testing once every four
years is usually sufficient.
A good plan is to sample one-
third to one-half of your fields each
year if your farm is in the coastal
plains region and one-fourth of your
fields each year if you are in the
piedmont or mountain regions.
How to Collect a Good
Sample
Tools. Collect your samples with
stainless steel or chrome -plated
sampling tools and plastic buckets
to avoid contaminating the samples
with traces of chemical elements
(micronutrients) from the sampling
tools. Avoid brass, bronze, or
galvanized tools. A suitable soil
probe is shown in Figure 2.
Make sure that the buckets and
sampling tools are clean and free of
lime and fertilizer residues. Even a
small amount of lime or fertilizer
transferred from the sampling tools
to the soil can seriously contaminate
the sample and vroduce inaccurate
Figure 2. Use proper tools to collect the soil sample.

1-0
Sampling Depth. For areas in
which field crops are grown, collect
samples to the same depth that the
field is plowed (usually about 8
inches) because this is the zone in
which lime and fertilizer have been
incorporated (Figure 3).
For fields when perennial crops
such as'fescue, alfalfa, and turf are
being maintained, samples taken to
a depth of 4 inches will best
represent. the crop's lime and
fertilizer needs. Where these
perennial crops are to be estab-
lished, however, sample to the
regular plow depth.
Submitting the Sample
Soil samples are analyzed by the
Agronomic Division of the NCDA.
Each sample must be submitted in a
standard soil sample box and
accompanied by a completed copy
of form,AD-1, "Soil Sample
Information." The boxes and forms
are available from your County
Extension Center, NCDA regional
agronomists, local agribusinesses, or
the NCDA Agronomic Division,
Blue Ridge Road Center, Raleigh,
NC 27611.
Submit your samples only in
the standard boxes provided, as
shown in Figure 4. Samples sent in
bags or other containers will not be
compatible with the processing
system used in the laboratory_ Do
not put a plastic bag inside the
sample box. Seal the shipping box if
the soil samples are from a quaran-
tined area.
The 15- to 20-core sample you
have collected will most likely be
more soil than the box will hold.
Before filling the box, therefore,
pulverize the cores and mix them
thoroughly in the bucket. Then fill
the sample box about two-thirds full
with this mixture.
Label the box with the code you
have assigned to the area sample.
Remember that the identification
can consist of no more than three
numbers, letters, or a combination
of the two.

Dairy Manure as a
Fertilizer Source
Dairy manure and wastewater are excellent sources of nutrients for most agro-
nomic, horticultural, and silvicultural crops. Proper management of these manures
as nutrient sources is critical to promoting optimum plant growth and yield while
protecting the environment. Optimum management of this resource includes
■ Handling and treating waste properly
■ Testing soil and manure regularly
■ Setting realistic yield goals
■ Applying manure in a uniform and timely fashion
■ Practicing soil conservation and environmental sustainability.
Nutrient Content of Dairy
Manures
Tables 1 and 2 show average nutrient values
for four dairy manure types. Table 1 also
shows the range in concentrations that make
up the average. Note the variability! Because
nutrient values vary considerably over time,
it is important to have a manure sample
analyzed for nutrient content before applying
the manure to the land. Because of the nature
of manure slurry systems, it may not always
be possible to have a sample analyzed before
land application. However, analysis results
received after the slurry application will
indicate whether there is a need for supple-
mental fertilizer. Samples can be sent to the
North Carolina Department of Agriculture
(NCDA), Agronomic Division, Plant and

733-2655. The current charge is $4
per sample. Many private laborato-
ries can also perform manure
analyses.
Because the accuracy of the
analysis depends on a representative
sample, take several subsamples
from different locations in the
manure pile or the lagoon and mix
them together in a plastic bucket.
After mixing the subsamples in the
bucket, place approximately 314 of a
pint of the manure material in a
nonmetallic, flexible container,
leaving some air space for gas
expansion. If possible, refrigerate or
ice the sample, and deliver it to the
lab promptly.
Samples of liquid manure
slurries are more difficult to obtain
because the manure basin must be
thoroughly agitated before a
representative sample can be taken.
For liquid manure slurry systems
take samples as the slurry material
is being pumped out of the lagoon.
The agitation caused by the removal
of the slurry will provide a represen-
tative sample. Record the analysis
results to develop a representative
farm average as a guide for future
slurry applications.
Land Application
Nutrient Availability
Only a portion of the nutrients in
dairy manure are available immedi-
ately after application for use by the
crop. Some of the nutrients are part
of the manure's organic structure
and require microbial decomposi-
tion to release them. In general, only
about 50 percent of the organically
bound nitrogen (N) and 70 to 80
percent of the other nutrients
become available to a crop during
the year of application. With solid
and slurry manures, the remaining
organically bound nitrogen can be
released in subsequent years and
should be accounted for in fields
where manure is applied annually.
Ammonium and urea are readily
available forms of nitrogen that are
present in many manures. Both of
these forms, however, can change
into ammonia, which evaporates
readily. When surface -applied
manure is not incorporated for one
month or longer, as much as 75
Percent of the ammonia can be lost
to the atmosphere. Incorporating the
manure within 48 hours reduces
losses to about 25 percent; with
direct soil injection all but 5 percent
of the ammonia is retained.
Coefficients are used to estimate
nutrient availabilities and to account
for different manure types and
methods of land application. These
"availability coefficients" are
multiplied by the total nutrient
concentration for each element as
reported in the manure analysis
report or, if no sample was taken or
no analysis is available, they are
multiplied by the average manure
values listed in Table 1. The sum of
these values is the nutrient concen-
trations available to plants. Avail-
ability coefficients are listed in
Table 3. If manure samples are sent
to the NCDA Agronomic Division,
analysis results will report both total
nutrient concentrations and plant -
available nutrients using these same
availability coefficients.
Application Rate
Land application rates should be
based on the nutrient requirements
of the crop being grown. Manure
can be applied at a rate to supply
any of the recommended nutrients.
Be careful, however, that the
application rate chosen to meet one
specific nutrient requirement does
not result in either excessive or
inadequate application of other
nutrients that can negatively impact
water quality or the crop's health. If

manure is applied to supply any
nutrient other than nitrogen, apply
the amount suggested by soil -test
Ice recommendations or crop removal
rates (See Extension Service publi-
cation AG-439-16, Nutrient Re-
moval by Crops in North Carolina.)
Because manure usually does not
contain the optimum nutrient
balance required for each field, be
sure to check the soil recommenda-
tions for each nutrient and, if
necessary, supplement with com-
mercial fertilizer as needed. If
annual applications continue to over
apply nutrients, environmental
impacts can occur. Alternative
management strategies should be
implemented before this occurs.
In most cases, dairy producers
use manure to supply the nitrogen
requirements of their crops. Nitro-
gen recommendations for various
crops are listed in Table 4. Adjust
the application rate to match the
yield capability of each field.
Applying more nitrogen than is
required for the crop usually does
not increase yield and can poten-
tially contribute to nitrate contami-
nation of groundwater and to
elevated nitrate concentrations in
forages. Nitrogen recommendations
given on North Carolina soil test
reports are not based on the soil
sample submitted or the yield
capabilities of an individual field or
farm. Soils test report recommenda-
tions reflect a wide range of yield
conditions across the state. To
customize your nitrogen application
rates use the values in Table 4. A
worksheet with an example is
included at the end of this fact sheet
to help you determine the amount of
dairy manure needed for different
crops and fields.
Besides monitoring nutrients,
maintain an adequate soil pH.
Optimum soil pH promotes good
yields, nutrient availability, and
manure decomposition. When dairy
manure is applied at agronomic
rates, high salinity (excess salt) has
not been a problem, given the
amounts of rainfall normally
recieved in North Carolina.
The most recently applied
manure is not the only source of
nutrients; in most fields, some
nutrients are available from previous
manure applications or previous
legume crops. With the exception of
nitrogen, updated soil tests are the
best means of determining nutrient
reserves from these sources. Table 5
can be used to estimate the available
nitrogen carryover from legumes.
Nitrogen carryover from manure is

r 1�
•
more difficult to estimate. If manure
has been applied to a field for
several years in succession, reduce
the nitrogen rate below the sug-
gested guidelines in Table 4. Table
6 provides an estimate of the
potential nitrogen from residual
carryover after 5 and 10 years of
continuous manure applications. To
use these numbers effectively, you
need an estimate of the average
nitrogen content of the manure and
the application rate over the period.
An example is included in the
following worksheet to show how
this number can be used to adjust
application rates.
Plant tissue analysis is another
excellent tool that you can use to
fine tune manure application rates.
The NCDA Agronomic Division
also provides this service.
Timing and Uniformity
of Manure Applications
To minimize nitrogen losses, apply
manure as close as possible to
planting time or to the stage of crop
development requiring maximum
nitrogen uptake. Good timing
increases the amount of nitrogen
used by the crop and thus reduces
the amount of nitrate that may leach
into groundwater. Contamination of
surface water and groundwater is
greater when manure is applied in
the fall or early winter for spring
crops in the absence of a cover crop.
Whether dairy manure is applied
with a manure spreader or by
irrigation, it is important that it be
applied uniformly. Nonuniform
application leads to nutrient ex-
cesses and deficiencies, reduced
yields, and uneven crop growth.

calibration is the process of deter-
mining the combination of settings
and travel speed needed to apply
manure at the desired rate and
uniformity.
Spreader Capacity
The capacity of liquid spreaders is
normally rated by the manufacturer
in gallons. Multiply the capacity in
gallons by 0.0042 to find the
capacity in tons. Solid and semi-
solid spreaders are rated by the
manufacturer either in bushels or
cubic feet. (Multiply bushels by
1.25 to get cubic feet.) Most
Spreader Load (tons) _
spreaders have two rating capacities:
(1) struck, or level full, and (2)
heaped. Because manures and litters
have different densities, perform an
on -farm test. Fill a 5-gallon bucket
level full with material to be spread.
Do not pack the material into the
bucket but ensure that it settles as
it would in a loaded spreader.
Weigh the bucket full and then
empty. Multiply the weight of the
contents by 1.5 to find the weight
in pounds per cubic feet. Multiply
this value by the capacity of the
spreader in cubic feet and divide
the result by 2,000 to find the
weight in tons of the material in a
spreader load.

Calibration Method I
This method is most useful for
liquid spreaders but can be used for
all types. Spread at least one full
load of manure, preferably in a
square or rectangular field pattern
for ease of measuring, with normal
overlaps. Measure the length and
width of the area covered, recogniz-
ing that the outer fringe areas of the
coverage will receive much lighter
applications than the overlapped
areas. Multiply the length by the
width and divide by 43,560 to
determine the coverage area in
acres. Divide the number of tons of
manure in the spreader by the acres
covered to determine the application
rate in tons per acre. (Refer to the
box at the right.)
Repeat the procedure at
different speeds and spreader
settings until the desired application
rate is achieved.
Calibration Method 2
This method is often used for solid
and semisolid spreaders. Use a
tarpaulin or plastic sheet of about
100 square feet (approximately 9
feet by 12 feet or 10 feet by 10 feet).
To determine its exact surface area
multiply the tarp's length by its
width. After measuring, weigh the
tarp using a set of spring -tension or
platform scales, and then spread and
pin it on the field surface. Operate
the spreader at its normal settings,
speed, and overlap. With a rear
discharge spreader, make three

center of the sheet and the other two
on opposite sides of the center at the
normal spreader overlap spacing.
Reweigh the sheet, including the
collected manure. Subtract the
weight of the empty sheet from the
total weight to find the weight of the
collected manure. Multiply the
weight of the collected manure in
pounds by 21.8 and divide the result
by the collection area of the sheet in
square feet to find the application
rate in tons per acre. (Refer to the
box at the right.)

Repeat the procedure using

Spreader Pattern Unifortnity
To determine the uniformity of
spread and the amount of overlap
needed, evenly place (2 to 4 feet
apart) a line of small pans or trays
across the spreader path. The pans
should be a minimum of 12 inches
by 12 inches or 15 inches in
diameter, no more than 24 inches
square, and 2 inches to 4 inches
deep. Make one spreading pass
directly over the center pan. Weigh
the contents caught in each pan or
pour the contents into equal -sized
glass cylinders or clear plastic tubes
and compare the amount in each.
Find the effective spread width by
locating the point on either side of
the path center where the manure
contents caught in the containers is
half of the amount collected in the
center. The distance between these
points is the effective spread width.
Overlap the outer fringes of the
coverage area beyond these points
on the next path to ensure a uniform
application rate over the entire field.
Flat -top, pyramid, or oval patterns
are most desirable and give the most
uniform rate of application. Make
adjustments for unsatisfactory M,
W, steeple, or lopsided patterns.
Acreage Requirements
for New or Expanding
Facilities
When planning a new or expanded
dairy operation, producers need to
determine if there is adequate land
to properly apply the manure. if an
existing operation is expanding, it
would be useful to use the average
manure nutrient analysis from the
farm if records have been main-
tained. When using farm records,
allow for 4.1 tons per head per year
for calves, 12 tons for heifers, and
17 tons for milk cows. When
records do not exist, state average
figures can be used. Table 7 has
been developed using average
manure nutrient values from Table
1, availability coefficients from
Table 3, and the nitrogen sugges-
tions from Table 4.
Value of Manure
To compare the economic worth of
manure to that of commercial
fertilizers, convert total manure
nutrient concentrations to plant -
available nutrients by using the
coefficients in Table 3. For ex-
ample, using the average total
nutrient concentrations of lot
scraped manure from Table 1 (10
pounds of nitrogen per ton, 6 pounds
of phosphate per ton, 9 pounds of

Land Application
Worksheet
Bill .Tones is a dairy producer using
a manure basin to store his manure
before applying it to land. He plans
to plant corn for silage in a field that
had 10 years of continuous manure
applications, and he anticipates a
yield of about 18 tons of silage per
acre. Because he applies this
manure as a slurry, which requires
agitation, he decides to use the
average nutrient values in Table 1 to
determine the application rate. He
does not plan to use any preplant or
starter fertilizer. His fields have
grass borders to help reduce erosion
and the potential for nutrient and
pesticide runoff. He plans to
incorporate the manure within 24
hours after application. In the past
10 years he has applied an average
of about 10,000 gallons of manure
per acre. How much liquid manure
slurry will he need to apply per acre
to meet the nitrogen needs of his
silage crop? Will he need to
supplement his slurry application
with commercial fertilizers to meet
the soil test recommendations of 50
pounds of phosphate and 80 pounds
of potash per acre, or will he have a
surplus of these nutrients? The
answers to these questions are given
in the worksheet that follows. Use
the same worksheet to determine the
manure rates to apply on your farm.

Studying nutrient removal by
plants is one of the methods
used to develop fertility
recommendations. Tests are
designed to examine patterns
of nutrient uptake in response
to different levels offertilizer
application. Information on
nutrient removal alone is not
adequate for making fertility
recommendations because it
does not take into account the
ability of the soils to retain
and supply nutrients. It can,
however, show variations in
nutrient needs among different
crops. In addition, it can
indicate the rates at which
reserves of soil nutrients will
be depleted.

Crops in Nonth Carolinta
Plant growth and development
depends on many factors, including
adequate nutrition. The exact
amount of fertilizer necessary varies
with the potential yield, growth, and
the concentration of nutrients that
are available from soil reserves and
decaying organic matter. These
interacting factors make it difficult
to develop reliable recommenda-
tions for fertility. Sound recommen-
dations require well -planned, long-
term experiments that can show
responses for a wide range of envi-
ronmental, soil, and growth condi-
tions.
Nutrients in plants that are left
in the field will partially resupply
nutrient reserves in the soil as they
decompose. Estimates of nutrient
depletion, therefore, should take
into account only the nutrients
removed with the harvested portion
of the plant. The table on page 2
shows the mean concentration of
various nutrients that are removed
by each crop for the yeild level indi-
cated. Values are not reported for
boron, molybdenum, iron, or chlo-
rine because they were omitted from
the references used. This does not
mean they are not removed nor that
they are unimportant. A brief dis-
cussion of each nutrient precedes
the table.
Nitrogen
Nitrogen (N) is a part of all plant
and animal proteins and a compo-
nent of DNA and RNA. Crop uptake
of nitrogen is relatively inefficient
and often results in average nitrogen
losses of 50 percent because of
leaching, volatilization, or denitrifi-
cation. Consequently, crop removal
values reflect a minimum amount of
nitrogen required because they do
not account for nitrogen losses.
Legumes produce most of their
own nitrogen through a symbiotic,
or beneficial, relationship with
bacteria (Rhizobium species) that
infect their roots. These bacteria
have the ability to convert atmos-
pheric nitrogen into forms that can
be used by plants. Therefore, leg-
umes with active nitrogen -fixing
bacteria do not need additional
sources of nitrogen. If fertilizer
nitrogen is added to a legume, bac-
terial production of nitrogen de-
creases. Current research suggests
that legumes may be less efficient
than nonlegume crops in recovering
nitrogen applied as fertilizers.
Nitrogen can accumulate under
some conditions in North Carolina
soils. However, the rate of -accumu-
lation and the length of availability
is extremely unpredictable and as
such is not included in standard soil
analysis. Sources of soil nitrogen
include commercial fertilizers,
animal manures, legume residues,
and other forms of decaying organic
matter. For more information on
nitrogen refer to Extension publica-
tion AG-439-2 Nitrogen and Water
Quality.

Phosphorus
Phosphorus (P) is involved in the
energy dynamics of plants. Without
it, plants could not convert solar en-
ergy into the chemical energy
needed for the synthesis of sugars,
starches, and proteins. Phosphorus
moves very slowly in mineral soils
and thus tends to build up over time
when the amount of phosphorus
added in fertilizer and organic
matter exceeds the amount removed
in the harvested portions of crops.
Because phosphorus is relatively
immobile in soil, it is important that
plant roots have a close and ade-
quate supply. Factors that inhibit
root growth therefore can affect
uptake of phosphorus.
Much of the phosphorus added
to soil is "fixed" by chemical reac-
tions with iron, aluminum, and
calcium and becomes unavailable
for uptake by crops. The quantity of
phosphorus available to plants is
much smaller than the total quantity
of phosphorus in the soil. This
amount can be determined only
through soil tests. The quantity of
available phosphorus in soils is the
fraction that is affected by plant
removal.
Potassium
Potassium (K) is involved in.photo-
synthesis, sugar transport, water and
nutrient movement, protein synthe-
sis, and starch formation. Potassium
helps to improve disease resistance,
tolerance to water stress, winter
hardiness, tolerance to plant pests,
and uptake efficiency of other nutri-
ents.
Potassium removal by crops un-
der good growing conditions is usu-
ally high, and is often three to four
times that of phosphorus and equal
to that of nitrogen. In many cases
where levels of soluble potassium in
the soil are high, plants tend to take
up more potassium than they
need. This is called luxury con-
sumption because the excess potas-
sium does not increase yields.
Potassium is also mobile in
soils, depending on soil texture.
Movement is greatest in course -
textured sands, followed by fine
sands and then clay soils. Accumu-
lation of potassium also depends
upon soil texture. The greatest
accumulation generally occurs in
clay soils, followed by loam and
coarse -textured sands.
Calcium and Magnesium
Calcium (Ca) is a constituent of the
cell wall and keeps the cell mem-
branes stable. Visual evidence of
calcium deficiencies generally
occurs in growing points of the plant
at the fruit, stem, leaf, and root tips.
Magnesium (Mg) is an essential
part of the chlorophyll molecule
where photosynthesis occurs. Mag-
nesium is also involved in energy
metabolism in the plant and is
required for protein formation.

i SoilFacts
Depletion of calcium and mag-
nesium reserves in the soil by crop
removal is rarely a problem in limed
soils because of the large quantity of
these nutrients that are present in
liming materials. However, some
crops, such as peanuts, may require
more calcium than the crops can
remove.
Sulfur
Sulfur (S) is a component of some
amino acids that are important in
building proteins. Sulfur is required
by plants in about the same quantity
as phosphorus.
Sulfur, just as nitrogen, is mo-
bile in soils and can be lost by
leaching. Leaching is greatest in
coarse -textured soils under high
rainfall conditions and least in limed
clay soils that are low in aluminum
and iron. In North Carolina, most of
the sulfur in surface soils is associ-
49 ated with organic matter. About 10
pounds of sulfur per acre are depos-
ited annually by rainfall in North
Carolina. Values for crop removal
may be useful guides for sulfur fer-
tilization on coarse -textured, sandy
soils with clay subsoils at depths
greater than 15.inches.

Mieronutrients
Micronutrients are called "micro"
only because they are needed in
very small quantities by plants.
Without them, however, no plant
could survive and function normal-
ly. The micronutrients are involved
in different plant processes and can
react differently in the soil.
Copper. Copper (Cu) is involved in
plant enzyme systems, protein
synthesis, seed formation, chloro-
phyll formation and nitrogen me-
tabolism. Copper moves very little
in soils and thus can accumulate
when application rates exceed
utilization. Copper is also held
tightly by organic matter.
Zinc. Zinc (Zn) is involved in starch
formation, protein synthesis, root
development, growth hormones, and
enzyme systems. As with copper,
zinc is relatively immobile in soils
and tends to accumulate.
Manganese. Manganese (Mn) is
involved in chlorophyll formation,
nitrate assimilation, enzyme sys-
tems, and iron metabolism. Manga-
nese deficiency is generally caused
by a high soil pH but can also be
induced by an imbalance with other
elements such as calcium, magne-
sium, and ferrous iron. Manganese
availability in limed soils is de-
creased with increasing levels of
organic matter.
Boron. Boron (B) is involved in
sugar and starch balance and
translocation, pollination and seed
production, cell division, nitrogen
and phosphorus metabolism, and
protein formation. Boron, just as
nitrogen and sulfur, is highly mobile
and is not readily retained by sandy
surface soils. Because of this mobil-
ity, boron must be added annually
for crops sensitive to boron deficien-
cies. Removal of boron by crops is a
reasonable estimate of need, but
practicality and leaching dictate
using several times this much.
Boron fertilizer is required for
cotton, peanuts, reseeding clovers,
and alfalfa, and vegetable crops
often require boron fertilization on
sandy soils.
Molybdenum. Molybdenum (Mo) is
involved in protein synthesis, leg -

J. P. ZuVara, Exterivon Sd! Science Spede ist
ume nitrogen fixation, enzyme sys-
tems, and nitrogen metabolism- De-
ficiencies of molybdenum generally
occur on acidic soils that contain
high levels of iron and aluminum
oxides. Estimates of molybdenum
removal by crops may serve as a
general fertilization guide. How-
ever, availability of soil reserves of
molybdenum to the plant are largely
regulated by soil pH.
Iron. Iron (Fe) is important in
chlorophyll and protein formation,
enzyme systems, respiration, photo-
synthesis, and energy transfer. Iron
deficiency, which is not very com-
mon in North Carolina, is believed
to be caused by an imbalance of
metallic ions, such as copper and
manganese, excessive amounts of
phosphorus in soils, and a combina-
tion of high pH, high lime, cool
temperatures and high levels of
carbonate in the root zone.
Chlorine. Chlorine (Cl) is involved
in photosynthesis, water -use effi-
ciency, crop maturity, disease
control and sugar translocation.
While chloride leaches quite readily
in coarse -textured soils, deficiencies
are not very common.
Summary
Estimates of crop nutrient removal
rates are useful in comparing the
nutrient demands of different crops.
These values, however, do not take
into account the quality and availa-
bility of nutrient reserves already in
the soil. Because of this limitation,
soil testing should still be the cor-
nerstone of all fertility programs.
Removal rates can be used in con-
junction with soil testing to estimate
the depletion of nutrient reserves.

Nutrient Content of Fertilizer and Organic Materials
Nutrients for Organic
Materials
Nutrients listed for organic materials
in the following tables are averages
and may not accurately reflect the
quantity in a specific source. Using
these values can result in either
overfertilization or underfertitiza-
tion in many cases. To determine
the quantity of nutrients in a specific
organic source, send a sample to a
qualified laboratory. The North
Carolina Department of Agriculture,
Agronomic Division, performs
analyses for a reasonable fee. Con-
tact the Plant and Waste Laboratory,
P.O. Box 27647, Blue Ridge Road
Center, Raleigh, NC 27611.
Remember that most of the
nutrients reported are not readily
available for plant growth. Nutri-
ents -in organic matter must be
released by soil microorganisms
through a decaying process called
mineralization. This biological
process is affected by variations in
moisture, temperature, and the
microbial species and populations
present in the soil. Therefore,
organic materials are far less pre-
dictable in nutrient content, nutrient
release, and nutrient -use efficiency
Table 3. Nutrient Content of Organic Materials
than commercial grade fertilizers.
Because of this unpredictability,
organic materials are frequently
overapplied, which may lead to
contamination of surface water or
groundwater by excess nutrients
such as nitrate. Organic materials
can serve as effective and environ-
mentally sound fertilizer materials
only if their nutrient contents are
]mown and their mineralization rates
are estimated closely. The report
received on samples sent to the
NCDA Agronomic Division lists the
nutrient contents and estimates) rates
of mineralization.
