The Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool ( PLAT) was utilized. It showed the P loss Index rating to be low or medium for these fields and operation. Therefore application rates will continue to be based on the nitrogen needs of the crops. Nitrogen needs for listed crops were based on current accepted realistic yield expectations (RYE) for the soil type of the planned fields. Background data from approved plan. Waste management plan is for 130 milk cows including 56 Holsteins, 55 Guernsey and 1.0 Jersey. Because of the smaller size of Guernsey and Jersey, this is the equivalent to 115 Holsteins weight. An additional 15 heifers also are included on the lot. These cows spend approximately 50% of the time on the lot (50% confinement and 50% in pasture). The plan also includes manure for 30 calves (day old — 400 lb. with 75% collection) which can be spread with a solid spreader or pushed into the waste storage ponds for irrigation. Capacity of Waste Storage Ponds for 180 Days. Slurry - 535,409 gallons Flush - 146,571 gallons Total - 681,980 gallons (91,174 cu ft) Methods of Application. • Irrigation of waste storage ponds by traveling gun on 48.66 effective acres (fields la, 2a, 3a). • Solids from calf hutches may be incorporated into waste storage ponds or spread with solids spreader. • Broadcast of slurry waste using hauling tank.

The planned cropping system for crop fields is a one year system of small grain for silage (or hay) followed by double cropped corn silage. For erosion control the small grain is planned to be no -tilled at a minimum every other year while the corn is planned to be no -tilled every year. At time of no -till planting there should be a minimum residue cover of 30%. Pasture should be properly grazed and maintained for optimum production. Realistic yields based on soil type and slope. See plan for realistic yield by field. Waste Application. Based on a phosphorous loss index of "low" or "medium" animal waste may be applied based on the nitrogen needs of the crop. This will result in the over -application of phosphorous and future assessments could show a P index of "high" or "very high". The nitrogen needs of the crops are based on realistic yield estimates and soil type. Animal waste should be tested for nutrient content and applied at a rate not to exceed these nitrogen amounts. Waste should not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting. if commercial fertilizer is used to supplement the application of animal waste the total of the two should not exceed the nitrogen needs. Please refer to your attached Nutrient Management Plan for Animal Waste Utilization for additional details and specifications.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. b. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. ----------------------- ----...................................................... .---------------------------------- ........ ....... .-. 922858 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 9/9/2008 Specification Page 1 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by. over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shalt not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 922858 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 9/9/2008 Specification Page 2 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a ".closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 1.9. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within SO days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintainer) for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23.

Use certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 Ib/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 lb/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb. 1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance. The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 1a,2a,3a, Ib,2b,3b, 3, 4, 5, 8 Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains In the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Plant 1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 3/4 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage. Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 Ibs nitrogen per ton of expected yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and expected yield. Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of tite corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential in profitable corn silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest. ----------------------------------------------------••-----.......--•--------------------._--..----------•--- .-----• - ........ 922858 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 09-09-2008 CropNote Page Page 1 of 2 The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 1 a,2a,3a, I b,2b,3b, 3, 4, 5, 8 Small Grain Silage, Piedmont and Mountains In the Piedmont, small grain silage should be planted from October 10 to November 3. in the Mountains, small grain silage should be planted from September 15 to October 31. Plant 18 to 22 seed/drill row foot at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time frame. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide".Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till, Adequate depth control when planting the small grain is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply approximately 30 lbs N at planting. Increase N at planting by 20% for no -till. Phosphorus and potassium should be applied according to a soil test at this time. The remaining N should be applied during February -March. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. N per ton of expected yield. The total N is dependent on soil type and expected yield. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the small grain. Timely management of diseases, weeds and insects are essential for profitable small grain silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest. ----- ••-------------------------------------------------•----...-------------------•------------------------•-----•---------------- 922858 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 09-09-2008 Crop Note Page Page 2 of 2 Bridges & Cook Dairy Date: 9/3/2008 Customer(s): BRIDGES & COOK DAIRY District: CLEVELAND SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT 1 "=660' Field Office: SHELBY SERVICE CENTER Agency: USDA, NRCS Assisted By: Robinson Jr, P Benjamin State and County: NC, CLEVELAND 340 0 340 680 1,020 1,360 Feet A Bridges & Cook Dairy Date: 9/912008 Customer(s): BRIDGES & COOK DAIRY Field Office: SHELBY SERVICE CENTER Agency: USDA, NRCS District: CLEVELAND SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT Assisted By: Robinson Jr, P Benjamin State and County: NC, CLEVELAND N o 340 0 340 680 1,020 1,360 Feet Soil Map—CEeveland County, North Carolina N � A 0 t00 200 400 W0 Feet 0 500 I AO 2,000 3,000 " WkWM Reaaroas Web Sall Survey 2.0 9woos 40 cumwvawn Service National Cooperative Sail Survey Page i of 3 Map Unit Description (Brief) -Cleveland County, North Carolina Map Unit Description (Brief) The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the soils or miscellaneous areas in the selected area. The map unit descriptions in this report, along with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit. A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class. Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils. The "Map Unit Description (Brief)" report gives a brief, general description of the major soils that occur in a map unit. Descriptions of nonsoil (miscellaneous areas) and minor map unit components may or may not be included. This description is written by the local soil scientists responsible for the respective soil survey area data. A more detailed description can be generated by the "Map Unit Description" report. Additional information about the map units described in this report is available in other Soil Data Mart reports, which give properties of the soils and the limitations, capabilities, and potentials for many uses. Also, the narratives that accompany the Soil Data Mart reports define some of the properties included in the map unit descriptions.

Per NC regulations there must also be a certified Operator In Charge (OIC) for this facility in order to supervise and document the application of the animal waste. An OIC must be a person who has been certified as an Animal Waste Management System Operator for Type B (cattle). GENERAL Two waste storage ponds were constructed in February of 1999 for a dairy operation of 130 milk cows and 15 heifers spending 50% of the time on the lot plus 30 calves. The farmer, Kevin Bridges, currently is using the facility. The waste storage ponds were constructed above the high water table of the soil. For waste removal, the Liquid and SIurry shall be agitated and pumped to the extent pumping will allow and applied to the field through hauling tanks or irrigation. The remaining sludge will be removed and the bottom and sides scraped using equipment such as an excavator with the sludge being spread with a solids spreader. VOLUME TO BE REMOVED The two waste storage ponds are typically referred to as the slurry and the flush pond and are connected by a 12" PVC pipe. The slurry pond is the larger of the two. Runoff from the lot enters the flush pond directly. The slurry pond is 119 feet by 119 feet at the inside top and 75 feet by 75 feet at the bottom. Total depth is 11 feet with the depth of animal waste at the full marker being 8.4 feet. The capacity at 8.4 feet deep (full marker) is 535,409 gallons or 71,579 cubic feet. The flush pond is 74 feet by 74 feet at the inside top and 30 feet by 30 feet at the bottom. Total depth is 11 feet with the maximum liquid level at the bottom of 12" PVC going to slurry pond being 8.5 feet deep. The capacity at 8.5 feet deep, pipe elevation, is 146,571 gallons or 19,595 cubic feet. Total animal waste capacity for both ponds at full marker is 681,980 gallons or 91,174 cubic feet. It is estimated that the bottom two. feet of animal waste is "in -the form -of sludge that cannot be removed by agitation and pumping. ! 2 NUTRIENT CONTENT OF WASTE It is anticipated that the waste storage ponds will be closed in 20I0. Due to the fact the facility is still in use, the amount of nutrients that will need to be applied will be estimated based on full ponds (six months of storage) and estimated nutrients (from the waste management plan) generated in six months. The method of application will be based on broadcasting the animal waste without soil incorporation. Actual nutrient content will need to be determined prior to closure by sampling the slurry waste (after agitation) and the sludge within 60 days of waste application and calculating the actual volume in the ponds. Based on the current 85 milk cows at 50% confinement, it is estimated the nutrient content for six months of storage are as follows: Plant Available Nitrogen (lbs) PAN 1,657 PIant Available Phosphorous (lbs) PAP205 I,635 Plant Available Potassium (lbs) PAK20 2,472 LAND APPLICATION OF WASTE Animal waste shall be sampled within 60 days or less of application. The slurry waste (after agitation) should be sampled as well as a separate sample for the sludge. See attached information on waste sampling. Animal waste shall only be applied to fields in the waste utilization plan. The waste utilization plan approved in September 2008 showed a Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool rating of Low or Medium for fields in the plan. Therefore animal waste may be applied according to the Nitrogen needs of the crop. No animal waste shall be applied in the buffers indicated in the waste utilization plan. Animal waste shall only be applied to actively growing crops or within 30 days or less of planting a crop or within 30 days or less of a perennial forage, such as grass, breaking dormancy. The next appropriate time for 2010 would be in late summer or fall. Animal waste could be applied to the fescue pasture from August 15 - October 15.-(Spring: February 15-April 15) If small grain is to be planted in the crop fields in the fall of 2010, 30 lbs of Nitrogen per acre could he applied within 30 days or less of planting. Optimum dates for planting Oats and Barley: September 15 — October 15; Wheat and Rye: October 15 —November 15. The Waste Utilization Plan shows the following for fall application: Tract Field Useable Acres . Cron Nitrogen Arent. / Ac. 965 ]a, 2a, 3a 48.7 Small Grain 30 lbs 965 lb, 2b, 3b 16.0 Small Grain 30 lbs 965 4 7.6 Fescue Pasture 85 lbs 965 5 10.2 Small Grain 30 lbs 965 6 8.0 Fescue Pasture 85 lbs 965 7 11.9 Fescue Pasture 86 lbs 965 8 16.3 Small Grain 30 lbs 965 9 2.7 Fescue Pasture 90 lbs 585 1 8.9 Small Grain 30 lbs 585 3 20.3 Small Grain 30 lbs 585 4 4.7 Small Grain 30 lbs Note: If small grain follows soybeans, do not apply waste due to residual Nitrogen available from soybeans. Do not apply waste to fields while it is raining or when the ground is saturated. Avoid spreading prior to predicted rain. A current soil sample is required for all fields receiving animal waste. SPECIFICATIONS The slurry in the waste storage ponds can be removed utilizing the existing irrigation system in fields 1 a, 2a, 3a of tract 965 or tank hauled and spread on any of the planned fields on tract 965 or tract 585. The sludge and all remnants of animal waste shall be scraped from the bottom of the ponds by machinery such as an excavator and spread utilizing a solids spreader. Prior to the breaching or removal of the waste storage ponds by grading the certifying technicians will need to inspect the ponds to verify that all animal waste and sludge has been removed that is reasonable and practical based on the technician's visual inspection and judgment. Closure of this operation must be done without any runoff of the effluent. After removal of all the waste as certified by the technician, the dam and pond area will be graded and shaped so as to avoid ponding rainfall runoff and to facilitate seeding and maintaining vegetation. All pipes will be removed. All disturbed areas will be vegetated according to NRCS standards. Exclude any pastured livestock until vegetation is well established. I agree to have a certified Operator In Charge (OTC) for cattle for this facility in order to supervise and document the application of animal waste. I agree to close the waste storage pond according to the above plan that meets NRCS standards. I will schedule the closure of these waste storage ponds with personnel of the Cleveland Soil and Water Conservation District and NRCS and I will notify the Division of Water Quality 24 hours before the closure is started.

This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included. A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

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

Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85. By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal. In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste. application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offske or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. .---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- 309643 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 6/7/2010 . Specification Page 1- M 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- . 309643 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 6/7/2010 . Specification Page 2: FM 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. 1f animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (S) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I --------------------------•---- •------- 309643 Database Version 3.1- Date Printed: 6/7/2010 Specification Page 3 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 4, 6, 7, 9 Fescue: Piedmont Adaptation: Well -adapted. In the Piedmont, tall fescue can be planted Aug. 20 to Oct. 10 (best) and Feb. 15 to Mar. 20. For pure -stand broadcast seedings use 20 to 30 lb/ac., for drilled use 15 to 20 lb/ac. seed. Use certified seed to avoid introducing weeds or annual ryegrass. Plant seed 0.25" to 0.5" deep for pure stands, 0.25" in mixture with clovers. Soil test for preplant and maintenance lime, phosphorus, and potassium recommendations. Apply 40 to 60 lb/ac nitrogen at planting for pure stands only. Do not apply N for mixtures with clovers but use proper legume inoculation techniques. Apply 150 to 200 Ib/ac. N to pure -stand fescue for hay production; reduce N rates by 25% for grazing. Apply N Feb. 1 to Mar. 20 and Aug. 20 to Sept. 30, with equal amounts in each window. Refer to NCSU Technical Bulletin 305 Production and Utilization of Pastures and Forages in North Carolina for additional information or consult your regional agronomist or extension agent for assistance. The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, la,2a,3a, Ib,2b,3b, 3, 4, 5, 8 Corn Silage: Piedmont and Mountains In the Piedmont, corn should be planted when soil temperature reaches 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Plant 1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 3/4 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage. Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs nitrogen per ton of expected yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and expected yield. Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential in profitable corn silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest. ------------------------------------------------------------•-------------...------------------------------------------------------- I - 309643 . -..Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 06-07-2010 .

In the Mountains, small grain silage should be planted from September 15 to October 31. Plant 18 to 22 seed/drill row foot at 1-1 1/2" deep and increase the seeding rate by 5% for each week seeding is delayed beyond the optimum time frame. See the seeding rates table for applicable seeding rate modifications in the current NCSU "Small Grain Production Guide".Also, increase the initial seeding rate by at least 10% when planting no -till. Adequate depth control when planting the small grain is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply approximately 30 lbs N at planting. Increase N at planting by 20% for no -till. Phosphorus and potassium should be applied according to a soil test at this time. The remaining N should be applied during February -March. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. N per ton of expected yield. The total N is dependent on soil type and expected yield. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the small grain. Timely management of diseases, weeds and insects are essential for profitable small grain silage production. Plant a cover crop after harvest. ---- - ------------------------•------------------------------------------- ------------------- - ----------------- 309643 1 .

Hudyncia@ncmail. net>, James Bealle <james.bealie@ncmail.net>, imilkguernseys@yahoo.com James/Joe, Mr. Kevin Bridges from Cleveland Co. contacted me last week with a question concerning irrigation calibration. His farm has experience some hardship this fall with the unexpected death of his farming partner in a house fire. This has put Kevin in a bind for getting things done on the farm. Mr. Bridges is planning to contract The Southers Boys to empty the pond this fall, so he will not be using his irrigation. I told Kevin that he does not need to calibrate his irrigation system until he uses the system again. I also, advised Kevin to get a calibration from the Southers Boys for their tank, and to check his hydrants to make sure they are all in working order. If either of you have any addition comments to add Kevins' cell phone is 704-477-2237. Thanks and have a good weekend. Cindy Kevin, If you need help with calibration this spring you can reach me on my cell phone 704-754-0566.

Cook 1 Charles Bridges: In accordance with your application received on November 18, 2004, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Jerry S. Cook / Charles Bridges, 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 AWC230008 which expired 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 Bridges & Cook Dairy, located in Cleveland County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 130 dairy cows, 15 heifers, and 30 calves, 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 keeping and monitoring, conditions in this permit. If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed. The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.

Lawndale, NC 28090 Subject: Operation Review/Compliance Cook & Bridges, Facility #: 23-8 Cleveland County Dear Mr. Bridges: The year 2002 is the beginning of the fifth year of the animal operation inspection program. Given this, there should be no misunderstanding as to what is required. However, as a reminder, the following information is a partial list of what is required: • A copy of the Permit, Certified Farm Plan, and Certification form(s) must be available for review. The certified farm plan must be followed (application rates, fields used for waste application, and crops grown to receive waste must be adhered to). You are in violation if you do not comply with any aspect of your farm plan or permit. • Annual soil analysis (properly documented) is required. The soils lab states that the preferred time (for efficiency) to process samples for analysis is between May and September. • Waste analyses must be conducted within 60 days of the waste application date. If the results are irregular, this should give adequate time to collect/analyze a new sample. • Waste application records. The records should be complete and legible. Errors should not be erased, but marked through and the correct information written on the following line. Remember, although the information may be clear to you or the operator, the information must be understandable to the person(s) performing the review. • Weekly freeboard records must be maintained. The "pump marker' must be clearly marked and visible at all times. There should be no question as to what is the pump marker during an inspcetion. • A certified operator must be designated. By completing a form and mailing to DWQ. • The facility must be maintained and operated according to the operation and maintenance information enclosed in the farm plan. This includes maintaining the area (mowing) around buildings and the lagoon/storage pond embankments. The list above comprises the majority, but certainly not all, of the requirements that must be followed. If permitted, the conditions of your permit should be review by you and your operator. Failure to have the necessary information available for inspection or to comply with the conditions of your permit could result in a Notice of Violation or further enforcement actions. If there is any uncertainty on your part regarding compliance with the permit, please feel free to contact Rocky Durham with the Division of Soil and Water or me at (704) 663-1699.

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, DRYI, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

HUNT.IR.ar NORTH CAROL,INA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES MOORESVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY November 19, 1998 Hazel Sigmon 3529 Ken McEntire Rd. Lawndale, NC 28090 Subject: Site Inspection Al Cook & Sons, Facility #: 23-8 Cleveland County Dear Mr. Sigmon : 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 andbr 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. 919 NORTH MAIN STREET, MOORESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA 20115 PHONE 704-663-1668 FAX 704-663-6040 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY /AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER -SOS RECYCLED/10% POST -CONSUMER PAPZR 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 Nitro en A ication for Cgmmon Crops: • Small Grains: One-third (1/3) N at planting and remainder in late February or early March. • Corn/Sorghum: For facilities that pump and haul, N should be applied prior to planting. For those facilities that irrigate, a split application with half at planting and the remainder when the corn is 18 inches high. • Fescue/Orchardgrass: Apply one-half (1/2) of the N in mid -February to March and one- half (1/2) in mid -August to September. • Bermuda grass: Establishing: 30 to 40 Ibs N/ac at planting and 30 to 60 kbs 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. r' y 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 piMucer 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.

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

This bill required that a properly certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge 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. The deadline for designating an Operator in Charge for animal waste management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry was January 1, 1997. Because a training and certification program was not yet available for these systems, you were allowed to apply for and were issued a temporary animal waste management certificate from the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). Because you applied for and were issued a temporary certificate, you were allowed to be designated as the Operator in Charge of an animal waste management system. Your temporary certificate expires December 31, 1997, and is not renewable. Our records indicate that you have not obtained a permanent animal waste management system operator certification. If you intend to remain the Operator in Charge of the facility for which you were designated, you must obtain a permanent animal waste management system operator certification of the appropriate type before your temporary certification expires on December 31, 1997. To obtain a permanent certification, you must be 18 years of age, complete ten hours of approved training, and pass an examination. If you do not intend to remain the Operator in Charge, a properly certified animal waste management system operator must be designated as Operator in Charge of the facility prior to the expiration of your temporary certification. This year's final training program for both Type A and Type B animal waste management systems is scheduled for December 10 and 11, 1997, at the Hunt Horse Complex in Raleigh. If you would like information about this training program, please contact your local cooperative extension agent or call Dee Ann Cooper at 919/515-6968. For those enrolled in this training and registering with Ms. Cooper prior to December 1, an exam will be offered at the Hunt Horse Complex on December 11, beginning at 1:00 pm.

Lawndale, NC 28090 Subject: Certification/Notice of Violations Al Cook & Sons, Facility #: 23-8 Cleveland County Dear Mr. Sigmon : 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 pondAagoon. 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. 919 North Main Street, N%4)CAn FAX 704-663-6040Mooresville, North Caroline 28115 Equal Opportunity/Afirmative Action Employer Voice 704-663-1699 W% recyc!ed/10% post -consumer paper Page 2 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 at (704) 663-1699. Sincerely, D.. ex' Mo . L�.'''

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 proces(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste. As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and returned by December 31, 1996, If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 919/733-0026.

Waste Management Problems 130 cows are milked on the Bridges -Cook farm. Milking parlor wash water and polluted runoff.are uncontrolled. Manure is presently scraped and hauled about once a week. 15 heifers are also kept on the lot. Dry cows are counted in the milk cow number. Milk cows have free access to a lounging area. The night lounging area is mostly bare ground next to a ditch. rcgNCs) Day old to 200 lb heifers are confined to barns, sheds and lots near the milking parlor. All other heifers are removed from the farm. II. Waste Management Objective A system will be planned to economically as possible handle all the problems described above in a manner that does not degrade air, soil or water resources. The system planned will prevent discharge of pollutants to surface and ground water by recycling waste through soil and plants. The following design and plans will be required: A. Waste Storage Ponds for Manure, Milking Parlor Wash Water and Polluted Runoff Waste storage ponds will be located near the feedlot and freestall barn. Waste from the milk herd, dry cows and large heifers will be collected in the waste storage ponds. The waste storage pond volume (storage period) is the main factor which determines the management required to prevent an illegal discharge. Manure should not be applied to land that is frozen, snow covered, or saturated. Irrigation will be used to empty the slurry pond. A small pond will be constructed next to slurry pond to store lot runoff to flush the irrigation system. B. Heifer Housing All weaned heifers will be removed from the farm. C. Clean Water Exclusion Clean water will be excluded from the feedlot and waste storage ponds to the fullest extent possible. Diversions, piping and guttering will be used where practical. Guttering will mostly be used on any new buildings. D. Livestock Exclusion And Filter Areas Livestock are fenced out of the waste storage pond. Fencing will be changed to create 100 ft. vegetative filters below lounging area. The filters will infiltrate part of the first flush and filter sediment and organic particles. A stock trail shall be constructed from feedlot - freestall area to pasture. A heavy use area will be constructed at entrance of lot at lounging area. E. Waste Utilization Sufficient land shall be available to properly spread waste at locations, times, volumes, and rates that maintains air, soil and water resources. Waste applications will be based on soil and waste analysis. A waste utilization plan will be prepared. F. Operation and Maintenance Plan The owner shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the system. An operation plan will be prepared.

A pipe will be install to divert other water to slurry pond after flush pond fills up. Flush pond dimensions, Bottom - 30' X 30' SS - 2 :1 Top - 74' X 74' Depth to top - 11.0' Depth to drain pipe - 8.5' Normal storage volume = 8.51/6[30'X30' + 64' X 64' + 4* 47' X 47'] 19,595 cu ft Second pond will require an additional storage of 91,017 - 19,595 = 71,422 cu ft 2: 119' X 119, 75' X 75' Volume = 8.5/6[ 751* 751+ 109' * 109' + 4(92' * 921)] = 72,763 cu ft This is OK. 2.1:1 Normal Pump Out Volume = �q,6:7 34,820 + 4,621 + 21,177 + 12,032 +1.0 *(119 * 119+ 74 X74) = 92,287 cu ft per 6 months = 184,574 cu ft per year 1,380,000 gal per year = 50.8 ac-in per year Flush Pond = 39,190 cu ft/year or 293,141 gal/yr or 10.8 ac-in per year Slurry Pond = 145,384 cu ft/year or 1,086,859 gal/yr or 40.0 ac-in per year Maximum pond levels 0.5' + 1.0' + 18,367 cu ft/(66' * 66' + 110' X 1101) = 2.6' below top of dam D. Pump out elevation and ESW elevation The waste storage pond should be emptied before the water level reaches the 25 yr - 24 hr storage volume. This elevation is 2.6 below the top of each dam. The emergency spillway elevation is planned 1.0 foot below the top of dam elevation. IV. Clean Water Exclusion A. Diversions Clean water diversions will be constructed around waste storage pond and feedlot area. The District Conservationist will design all diversions. Diversions shall be designed to carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store_ some sediment. B. Guttering Clean water shall be excluded to the fullest extent possible by guttering. This applies mostly to any new construction since guttering will be difficult to install and maintain on existing buildings. V. Lounging Areas, Stock Trails, Heavy Use Areas and Filter areas The stock trails and heavy use areas consist of 9" of compacted ABC stone over a specified type of filter cloth. Runoff from the lounging area will be directed across well maintained grass sod. Vegetated filters shall be maintained between lounging areas and drainage ways. Filters shall be 100 ft wide. Swells or diversions shall be constructed and maintained along fence lines to kick water into filters at frequent intervals. A. Milk Cows Milk Cows have access to lounging area located behind the freestall barns. vegetative filters at least 100' wide will be maintained around the lounging areas. B. Day old to..400 lb Heifer Group (calves) (calves) 30 young heifers are kept in hutches and sheds near the milking herd. Approximately 7516 of the manure is collected. Manure will be collected and spread as needed. Volume of manure=30 calves*1.5 a1 hd da * 365 days*.75= 1,647 cuft 7.48 gal/cu ft VI. Waste Utilization Plan A. Management Facts (liquid manure) Manure for milking herd, dry cows and large heifers will be stored in a waste storage ponds for approximately 6 months and will be irrigated. During the course of one year, the ponds will store 50.8 ac-in per year of waste. Daily scraping of waste is required to move the waste into the storage facility. The following amounts of manure will be collected at other parts of the farm: 1. Day old to 400 lb Heifers (calves) 1,647 cu ft If all of one years waste were spread using a 200 cu ft spreader, it would take approximately 8 loads. Assuming 1 load per hour, it will take 8 hours to spread this manure. Ground conditions must be evaluated prior to spreading. Irreversible compaction problems and damage to underground drainage systems may result from the excessive weight of a loaded spreader. Caution should be exercised to insure that waste does not run or wash off from the land. B. Management Facts (polluted water) Runoff from the lounging area will be diverted through 100' vegetative filter areas. Grass sods will be maintained all year round. These areas maybe controlled grazed in late spring and early fall when ground is dry. Weeds may require chemical control or periodic bush hogging. See plan map. C. Nutrient computations Manure application shall be based on actual soil test and manure analysis. a.

Flush pond dimensions, Bottom - 30' X 30' SS - 2:1 Top - 74' X 74' Depth to top - 11.0' Depth to drain pipe - 8.5' Normal storage volume 8.5' /6 [30'X30' -+- 64' X 64' + 4* 47' X 4711 = 19,595 cu ft Second pond will require an additional storage of 91,017 - 19,595 = 71,422 cu ft 2: 119' X 119' 75' X 75' Volume = 8.5/6[ 751* 757+ 109' * 109' + 4(92' * 92')] = 72,763 cu ft This is OK. 2.1:1 Normal Pump Out Volume = Qg6'y 34,820 + 4,621 + 21,177 + 12,032 +1.0 *(119 * 119+ 74 X74) 92,287 cu ft per 6 months 184,574 cu ft per year = 1,380,000 gal per year = 50.8 ac-in per year Flush Pond = 39,190 cu ft/year or 293,141 gal/yr or 10.8 ac-in per year Slurry Pond = 145,384 cu ft/year or 1,086,859 gal/yr or 40.0 ac-in per year Maximum pond levels .0.5' + 1.0' + 18,367 cu ft/(66' * 66' + 110' X 1101) = 2.6' below top of dam D. Pump out elevation and ESW elevation The waste storage pond should be emptied before the water level reaches the 25 yr - 24 hr storage volume. This elevation is 2.6 below the top of each dam. The emergency spillway elevation is planned 1.0 foot below the top of dam elevation. TV. Clean Water Exclusion A. Diversions Clean water diversions will be constructed around waste storage pond and feedlot area. The District Conservationist will design all diversions. Diversions shall be designed to carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store some sediment. B. Guttering Clean water shall be excluded to the fullest extent possible by guttering. This applies mostly to any new construction since guttering will be difficult to install and maintain on existing buildings. V. Lounging Areas, Stock Trails, Heavy Use Areas and Filter areas The stock trails and heavy use areas consist of 9" of compacted ABC stone over a specified type of filter cloth. Runoff from the lounging area will be directed across well ; maintained grass sod. Vegetated filters shall be maintained between lounging areas and drainage ways. Filters shall be 100 ft wide. Swells or diversions shall be constructed and maintained along fence lines to kick water into filters at frequent intervals. A. Milk Cows Milk Cows have access to lounging area located behind the freestall barns. Vegetative filters at least 100' wide will be maintained around the lounging areas. B. Day old to-440 lb Heifer Group (calves) (calves) 30 young heifers are kept in hutches and sheds near the milking herd. Approximately 75% of the manure is collected. Manure will be collected and spread as needed. Volume of manure=30 calves*1.5 aal/hd/dav* 365 days*.75= 1,647 tuft 7.48 gal/cu ft VI. Waste Utilization Plan A. Management Facts (liquid manure) Manure for milking herd, dry cows and'large heifers will be stored in a waste storage ponds for approximately 6 months and will be irrigated. During the course of one year, the ponds will store 50.8 ac-in per year of waste. Daily scraping of waste is required to move the waste into the storage facility. The following amounts of manure will be collected at other parts of the farm: 1. Day old to 400 lb Heifers (calves) 1,647 cu ft If all of one years waste were spread using a 200 cu ft spreader, it would take approximately 8 loads. Assuming 1 load per -hour, it will take 8 hours to spread this manure. Ground conditions must be evaluated prior to spreading. Irreversible compaction problems and damage to underground drainage systems may result from the excessive weight of a loaded spreader. Caution should be exercised to insure that waste does not run or wash off from the land. B. Management Facts (polluted water) Runoff from the lounging area will be diverted through 100' vegetative filter areas. Grass sods will be maintained all year round. These areas maybe controlled grazed in late spring and early fall when ground is dry. Weeds may require chemical control or periodic bush hogging. See plan map. C. Nutrient computations Manure application shall be based on actual soil test and manure analysis. a.

Operation and Maintenance Plan The waste management system will keep pollutants out of the streams and rivers if the 25 yr -24 hr storage capacity is maintained in the waste storage pond and diversions for clean water and polluted runoff are maintained around the system. Before the waste storage pond reaches a point 2.6 ft. below the top of the dam, the storage pond shall be emptied. A post will be set with its top at this elevations. Vegetation around the waste storage pond shall be mowed annually and eroded areas patched. Fencing shall be checked and repaired as required. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN (Revision #5 Updates Plan Approved 06/12/00) PRODUCER: Jerry Cook & Kevin Bridges Bridges & Cook Dairy LOCATION: 3529 Ron McEntire Road Lawndal.e, NC 28090-9672 TELEPHONE: 704-538-7812 TYPE OPERATION: Dairy NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 130 Holstein/Guernsey/Jersey Milk Cows (Design Capacity) 15 Holstein/Guernsey/Jersey Heifers 30 Calves STORAGE STRUCTO (s); Waste Storage & Flush Pond APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation & Broadcast The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste must be analyzed within 60 days of each application cycle. Soil tests shall be done annually so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil test and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 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. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under Division of Water Quality regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwide odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 2 7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all the fields where waste is applied shall be monitored and alternative application fields shall be used when these metals approach excess levels. This plan is based on waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for broadcasting, injecting and irrigating waste are not the same. The waste management 'system which is covered by this waste utilization plan shall be operated only by persons which hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of an animal waste management system.' The North Carolina Water Quality Commission will provide training and certification of operators. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling techniques, preparation, and transfer of water samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality Commission. AMOUNT of WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, eta.) Waste Storage & Flush Pond: 690,307 gallons - Irrigated Scrape & Haul - calves & heifers: 1,647 ft3 (51.tons) - Broadcast AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR Waste Storage & Flush Pond: 4,442 lbs.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 4 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. if surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Field No. Soil Type Crop Application hate Application (In/Hr) Amount (In.) 1A, 2A, 3A 31B2 Corn Silage & 0.40 0.60 Small Grain Hay/ Silage * This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. in many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under'optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION Manure is scraped daily to a waste storage pond. The pond stores approximately 160 days of manure accumulation. A second pond will store lot runoff and will be used to flush irrigation system after applying slurry waste. Waste storage ponds are emptied by irrigation when crop and soil conditions are suitable.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use"of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the'rate of application for'other nutrients. 9. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. B. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also -be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal).

Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 19. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of- ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc_). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge. is. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19, Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20, Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for For direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN (Revision # 2 Updates Plan Approved 05/10/99) PRODUCER: Jerry Cook & Charles Bridges Bridges & Cook Dairy LOCATION: 3529 Ken McEntire Road Lawndale, NC 28090-9672 TELEPHONE: 704-538-7812 TYPE OPERATION: Dairy NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 130 Holstein/Guernsey/Jersey Milk Cows (Design Capacity). 15 Holstein/Guernsey/Jersey Heifers STORAGE STRUCTURE(s): Waste Storage & Flush Pond APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation & Broadcast The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of . commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste must be analyzed within 60 days of each application cycle. Soil tests shall be done annually so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Soil test and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 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. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not.apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under Division of Water Quality regulations. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 2 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 7. Zinc and copper levels in the soils in all the fields where waste is applied shall be monitored and alternative application fields shall be used when these metals approach excess levels. This plan is based on waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for broadcasting, injecting and irrigating waste are not the same. The waste management system which is covered -by this waste utilization plan shall be operated only by persons which hold a valid certificate as an operator in charge of an animal waste management system. The North Carolina Water Quailty Commission will provide training and certification of operators. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on'typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling. techniques, preparation, and transfer of water samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 (the .0200 rules) adopted by the Water Quality Commission.

WASTE fITILZZATION PLAN PAGE 5 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application.amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. The following table is provided as a.guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Field Soil Type Crop Application Application No. Rate (In/Hr.) Amount (In.) 1A,2A,3A 31B2 Corn Silage & 0.40 0.50 Small Grain Silage * This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil ,assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. WASTE UTILISATION PLAN PAGE 5 Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of'once every 6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION Manure is scraped daily to a waste storage pond. The pond stores approximately 180 days of manure accumulation. A second pond will store part of the lot runoff to be used to flush irrigation system after applying slurry. waste. Waste storage ponds are emptied by irrigation when crop and soil conditions are suitable.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 8 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. 2. There must be documentation in -the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. if the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to 'meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 1.0 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. &. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance..) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur off site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during* rainfall events, or when the.surface is frozen.. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Page 9 REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10.

Waste Management Problems 130 cows are milked on the Bridges -Cook farm. Milking parlor wash water and polluted runoff are uncontrolled. Manure is presently scraped and hauled about once a week. 15 heifers are also kept on the lot. Dry cows are counted in the milk cow number. Milk cows have free access to a lounging area. The night lounging area is mostly bare ground next to a ditch. Day old to 200 lb heifers are confined to barns, sheds and lots near the milking parlor. All other heifers are removed from the farm. II. Waste Management Objective A system will be planned to economically as possible handle all the problems described above in a manner that does not degrade air, soil or water resources. The system planned will prevent discharge of pollutants to surface and ground water by recycling waste through soil and plants. The following design and plans will be required: A. Waste Storage Ponds for Manure, Milking Parlor Wash Water and Polluted Runoff Waste storage ponds will be located near the feedlot and freestall barn. Waste from the milk herd, dry cows and large heifers will be collected in the waste storage ponds. The waste storage pond volume (storage period) is the main factor which determines the management required to prevent an illegal discharge. Manure should not be applied to land that is frozen, snow covered, or saturated. Irrigation will be used to empty the slurry pond. A small pond will be constructed next to slurry pond to store lot runoff to flush the irrigation system. B. Heifer Housing All weaned heifers will be removed from the farm. C. Clean Water Exclusion Clean water will be excluded from the feedlot and waste storage ponds to the fullest extent possible. Diversions, piping and guttering will be used where practical. Guttering will mostly be used on any new buildings. D. Livestock Exclusion And Filter Areas Livestock are fenced out of the waste storage pond. Fencing will be changed to create 100 ft. vegetative filters below lounging area. The filters will infiltrate part of the first flush and filter sediment and organic particles. A stock trail shall be constructed from feedlot - freestall area to pasture. A heavy use area will be constructed at entrance of lot at lounging area. E. Waste Utilization Sufficient land shall be available to properly spread waste at locations, times, volumes, and rates that maintains air, soil and water resources. Waste applications will be based on soil and waste analysis. A waste utilization plan will be prepared. F. Operation and Maintenance Plan The owner shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the system. An operation plan will be prepared. III.

Sizing Waste Storage Pond Two ponds will be required. A small pond will be used to store water to flush irrigation system. 8.5' of depth will be used. A pipe will be install to divert other water to slurry pond after flush pond fills up. Flush pond dimensions, Bottom - 30' X 30' SS - 2:1 Top - 741 X 741 Depth to top - 11.0' Depth to drain pipe - 8.5' Normal storage volume = 8.5'/6[30'X30' + 64' X 64' + 4* 47' X 47'] 19,595 cu ft Second pond will require an additional storage of 91,017 - 19,595 = 71,422 cu ft 2: 119' X 119, 75' X 75' Volume = 8.5/6[ 751* 751+ 109' * 109, + 4(92' * 92')] = 72,763 cu ft This is OK. 2.1.1 Normal Pump Out Volume = 1616", 34,820 + 4,621 + 21,177 + 121032 +1.0 *(119 * 119+ 74 X74) = 92,267 cu ft per 6 months = 184,574 cu ft per year = 1,380,000 gal per year = 50.8 ac-in per year Flush Pond = 39,190 cu ft/year or 293,141 gal/yr or 10.8 ac-in per year Slurry Pond = 145,384 cu ft/year or 1,086,859 gal/yr or 40.0 ac-in per year Maximum pond levels 0.5' + 1.0' + 18,367 cu ft/(66" * 66' + 110' X 1101) = 2.6' below top of dam D. Pump out elevation and ESW elevation The waste storage pond should be emptied before the water level reaches the 25 yr - 24 hr storage volume. This elevation is 2.6 below the top of each dam. The emergency spillway elevation is planned 1.0 foot below the top of dam elevation. IV. Clean Water Exclusion A. Diversions Clean water diversions will be constructed around waste storage pond and feedlot area. The District Conservationist will design all diversions. Diversions shall be designed to carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store some sediment. B. Guttering Clean water shall be excluded to the fullest extent possible by guttering. This applies mostly to any new construction since guttering will be difficult to install and maintain on existing buildings. V. Lounging Areas, Stock Trails, Heavy Use Areas and Filter areas The stock trails and heavy use areas consist of 9" of compacted ABC stone over a specified type of filter cloth. Runoff from the lounging area will be directed across well maintained grass sod. Vegetated filters shall be maintained between lounging areas and drainage ways. Filters shall be 100 ft wide. Swells or diversions shall be constructed and maintained along fence lines to kick water into filters at frequent intervals. A. Milk Cows Milk Cows have access to lounging area located behind the freestall barns. Vegetative filters at least 100' wide will be maintained around the lounging areas. B. Day old to 400 lb Heifer Group 30 young heifers are kept in hutches and sheds near the milking herd. Approximately 750 of the manure is collected. Manure will be collected and spread as needed. Volume of manure=30 calves*1.5 al hd da * 365 days*.75= 1,647 cuft 7.48 gal/cu ft VI. Waste Utilization Plan A. Management Facts (liquid manure) Manure for milking herd, dry cows and large heifers will be stored in a waste storage ponds for approximately 6 months and will be irrigated. During the course of one year, the ponds will store 50.8 ac-in per year of waste. Daily scraping of waste is required to move the waste into the storage facility. The following amounts of manure will be collected at other parts of the farm: 1. Day old to 400 lb Heifers 1,647 cu ft If all of one years waste were spread using a 200 cu ft spreader, it would take approximately 8 loads. Assuming 1 load per hour, it will take 8 hours to spread this manure. Ground conditions must be evaluated prior to spreading. Irreversible compaction problems and damage to underground drainage systems may result from the excessive weight of a loaded spreader. Caution should be exercised to insure that waste does not run or wash off from the land. B. Management Facts (polluted water) Runoff from the lounging area will be diverted through 100' vegetative filter areas. Grass sods will be maintained all year round. These areas maybe controlled grazed in late spring and early fall when ground is dry. weeds may require chemical control or periodic bush hogging. See plan map. C. Nutrient computations Manure application shall be based on actual soil test and manure analysis. a. Slurry Waste Storage Pond TOTAL NUTRIENTS DISPOSAL LOSSES AVAILABLE NUTRIENT.

Operation and Maintenance Plan The waste management system will keep pollutants out of the streams and rivers if the 25 yr -24 hr storage capacity is maintained in the waste storage pond and diversions for clean water and polluted runoff are maintained around the system. Before the waste storage pond reaches a point 2.6 ft. below the top of the dam, the storage pond shall be emptied. A post will be set with its top at this elevations. Vegetation around the waste storage pond shall be mowed annually and eroded areas patched. Fencing shall be checked and repaired as required.

The pond will store 50.8 ac-in per year. This will require a solid set irrigation set up for approximately 23 plus acres. The cropping system will determine the exact number of acres needed. It is recommended that the irrigation system designer be given field location, size, slope, soil type, maximum application rate, -crops, and maximum application per irrigation. If a 23 acre application area is large enough, the system is estimated to cost between 30,000.00 and 50,000.00 dollars. Typical system cost Propeller Agitator - $6,000.00 Pump - $5,300.00 Traveling Gun $16,500.00 Dry Hydrants & Pipe $10,000.00 Attachment 5 t 1 .L- A. fl !�r /y %Q , NORTH CAROLINA ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE FORM FOR SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE USE ONLY OFFICE OF STATE ARCHAEOLOGY/DIVISION OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY STATE SITE NUMBER: 1.

April 24, 1997 SYSTEM OVERVIEW This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following major components: 1. MILKING PARLOR WASTE WATER PIPE 2. WASTE STORAGE POND 3. IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM 4. CLEAN WATER COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM 5. FILTER AREA FOR LOUNGING AREA and the following associated components 6. CONCRETE CURBING 7. VEGETATED DIVERSION 8. LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION 9. FILTER AREA PLANTING 10. STOCK TRAILS All solid waste will be scraped from the lots and stored in the WASTE STORAGE POND. Slurry waste will be irrigated from the SLURRY WASTE STORAGE POND at agronomic rates. The WASTE STORAGE POND is designed to provide 180 days storage for the slurry wastes produced by 130 head dairy herd. Also contaminated runoff will flow into the WASTE STORAGE POND. This structure is designed to provide storage for runoff from the feedlot and waste water from the milk barn for a 180 days 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. Runoff from l i �areap is diverted through 100, of filter areas. Small heifer feed areas in barns and lots will, also be collected and Spread. All maintenance and operation costs are the responsibility of the landowner and cannot be cost shared. Bridges & Cook DAIRY Farm Cleveland County, N.C. April 24, 1997 1. WASTE STORAGE POND OVERVIEW The WASTE STORAGE POND is designed to store manure, feedlot runoff and waste water from the milk barn for a 180 days period. Additional storage space is included to contain the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm runoff from the feedlot. A post will be installed with the level of the top of post indicating the level of storage available prior to infringing on the 25 year, 24 hour storm capacity. The maximum storage level is 1.6 ft. below the emergency spillway elevation. The WASTE STORAGE POND consists of an earthen dam and concrete chute for discharging contaminated water and manure into the structure. OPERATION The service life of the WASTE STORAGE POND will be determined by the level of management for the entire system. Once the manure and bedding materials have reached the WASTE STORAGE POND, how effectively the waste is agitated will determine the amount of solids which remain in the WASTE STORAGE POND. Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the WASTE STORAGE POND. The accumulated solids should not reduce the usable capacity of the WASTE STORAGE POND to a.point which requires removal of the solids for many years IF 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 STORAGE 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 STORAGE POND becomes reduced to the point -that solids must be removed, the removal of these solids will be at your expense. This would be part of the maintenance of your system and cannot be cost shared. Bridges & Cook DAIRY Farm Cleveland County, N.C. April 24, 1997 MAINTENANCE The concrete in the WASTE STORAGE POND 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 FILTER AREA PLANTING for further maintenance requirements. Any evidence of sloughing or seepage should be reported to the Cleveland Soil & Water Conservation District office. 2. MILKING PARLOR WASTE WATER PIPE OVERVIEW The milking parlor waste water pipe consist of concrete pipe from milking parlor to waste storage pond. MAINTENANCE Inspect the concrete components of the PIPING SYSTEM for cracks or other damage, and make repairs or replace as needed. Inspect the drop structures seasonally and remove accumulated solids. 3. IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM OVERVIEW The IRRIGATION AND AGITATION SYSTEM consists of a Pump, requiring large tractor with H. P. specified, with a suction line and underground pipe to irrigation fields, above ground hydrants and a traveling gun with a bore nozzle. See irrigation design for design data. Bridges & Cook Cleveland County, N.C. DAIRY Farm April 24, 1997 2 OPERATION Cleveland Soil & water Conservation District staff and/or USDA - Natural Resources Conservation Service staff will be present during the first irrigation operation to assist in determination of optimum equipment calibration level required for each of the gun setups. Irrigation operation should be initiated prior to the liquid level reaching the full storage level marker in the structure. When the liquids level in the WASTE STORAGE POND reaches the marker, liquids must be removed by pumping from the structure, either into the irrigation system or to a spreader tank for land application. Do not irrigate in such a manner as to cause runoff or erosion. Do not irrigate on frozen or saturated soils. Irrigate only until soil is near saturation point. The initial step in each irrigation operation is to properly agitate the waste in the Holding Pond. For irrigation, the gate valve controlling agitation will be closed and the irrigation mainline valve will be opened. The gun will already be at one of the hydrants, the other will be plugged. This gun can operate a maximum of under ideal dry conditions. The irrigation mainline valve must.be closed to change the gun location. For filling spreaders, the agitation control valve will remain open while the filler valve is opened. The agitation valve may be throttled down to divert more volume to filler line. MAINTENANCE Soil test the irrigation fields annually. Vegetation in the irrigation fields should be inspected periodically and reseeded as needed to insure a vigorous stand. Fields may also need to be limed and fertilized annually. It is essential that neither vehicles nor livestock be allowed to create travel lanes within the irrigation fields. The irrigation fields should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. The irrigation fields may be control grazed or mowed for hay. Grazing and mowing operations must take place only when the soils are dry, and vegetation should not be grazed or mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches. See FILTER AREA PLANTING for further maintenance requirements. Bridges & Cook DAIRY Farm Cleveland County, N.C. April 24, 1997 4. CLEAN WATER COLLECTION AM PIPING SYSTEM OVERVIEW Clean water collection and piping consist of piping clean water under stock trails and diverting clean water around lounging and feedlot areas. MAINTENANCE Inspect the components of the CLEAN WATER COLLECTION AND PIPING SYSTEM annually for cracks or other damage, and make repairs or replace as needed. Inspect annually and remove accumulated sediment. 5. CONCRETE CURBING 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. 6. VEGETATED DIVERSION OVERVIEW A VEGETATED DIVERSION will be located above the WASTE STORAGE POND and will convey non -contaminated runoff around the structure. Diversions will also be located around the feedlot to divert clean water. Bridges & Cook Cleveland County, N.C. DAIRY Farm April 24, 1997 4 MAINTENANCE The vegetation in the diversion should be inspected periodically and reseeded as needed to insure a vigorous stand. it is essential that neither vehicles nor livestock be allowed to create travel lanes within the diversion. The diversion should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. The diversion may be control grazed or mowed for hay. Grazing and mowing operations must take place only when the soils are dry, and vegetation should not be grazed or mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches. If sedimentation has reduced the capacity of the channel, contact the Cleveland Soil and Water Conservation District for technical assistance in correcting this problem. See FILTER AREA PLANTING for further maintenance requirements. Bridges & Cook DAIRY Farm Cleveland County, N.C. April 24, 1997 7. LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION 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. 8. FILTER AREA PLANTING OVERVIEW FILTER AREA PLANTING applies to seeding 100' of grass below the lounging areas and seeding diversions. At least 25' of grass area should be maintained between ditches and stock trails. MAINTENANCE Soil samples should be taken at least once per year. Fertilizer and lime should be applied at the rates recommended as a result of the soil test. 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. The filter area may be control grazed or mowed for hay. Grazing and mowing operations must take place only when the soils are dry, and vegetation should not be grazed or mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches. All FILTER 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. Bridges & Cook Cleveland County, N.C. DAIRY Farah April 24, 1997 6 9. STOCK TRAILS OVERVIEW Stock trails will be located as indicated on plan maps. MAINTENANCE Inspect the stock trails periodically for damage and wear. If gravel layer becomes thin, gravel shall be replaced to maintain a minimum of 4" of cover over the filter cloth. Manure accumulations in broad based dips on stock trail shall be removed at regular intervals to prevent overtopping. GENERAL COMMENTS PESTICIDE USE Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides so that desirable vegetation, especially that of the filter area, 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 Cleveland Soil and Water conservation District if repairs or major modifications are required for any of the components of this Waste Management System.

LANDOWNER ACCEPTANCE AND APPROVAL OF PROPOSED PLAN I have read the detailed plans for this waste management system and have reviewed the construction drawings and specifications developed for this system by representatives of the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and approved on /zs q7 The components shown on the plan represent the alterative of my choice and is acceptable as a waste management system on my farm. I understand the requirements of the plan and agree to implement, or cause to be implemented, the details of this plan to the best of my abilities with technical assistance provided by representatives of the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. I have read the "Operation and Maintenance Plan" and the "Waste Utilization Plan" and fully understand both of these documents and agree to follow these plans. I understand the North Carolina Cost Share Program Contract signed by me on requires that I maintain this system according to the "Operation and Maintenance Plan" for a period of no less than ten (10) years from the date of final cost share payment. Failure on my part to follow this plan may result in prosecution by the State of North Carolina under the terms of the Contract. If I find any part of either of these plans is not workable, I will contact the Soil and Water Conservation District so an acceptable alternative plan may be developed. I am fully aware that modifications to the proposed plan may be required after construction to insure that the system operates in the manner and with the efficiency for which it was planned. Changes in this plan may not be made either during or after construction without the mutual consent and cooperation of myself and the G euel4&% Soil and Water Conservation District. I agree to cooperate with USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service representatives in an effort to maintain and operate this system as effectively as possible. The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service representative has thoroughly reviewed with me this comprehensive waste management plan and the associated cost share reimbursement provisions.
