Operation Review/Compliance
Cookson Dairy, Facility #: 60-11
Mecklenburg County, NC
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 64 days of the waste application date. If the results are
irregular, this should give adequate time to coliect/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
lagoontstorage 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 [phone].

Subject: Elevated Fecal Coliform Levels
Cookson Dairy, Facility #: 60-11
'Mecklenburg County,'NC
Dear Mr. Cook:
On April 24, 2000 Mr. David Rymer of the Mecklenburg County Department of
Environmental Protection (MCDEP) contacted Mr. Alan Johnson of.this Office regarding
elevated fecal coliform measurements in an unnamed tributary of McDowell Creek that runs
through your property. Initially, elevated fecal coliform levels were observed during routine
monitoring -by MCDEP where Gilead Road (SR 2136) crosses over the tributary.
Subsequently, more measurements were taken (see diagram). at various points upstream of
that location. On April 28, 2000 Mr. Johnson and Mr. Rymer met at the facility to
investigate the possible cause of the elevated fecal levels.
In addition to the main tributary, there are two smaller streams/drainage basins that
flow into the main tributary. In accordance with your farm plan, the main tributary and
drainage ditch are fenced off to prevent animal access. Given this, it would appear the
elevated fecal measurements are due mainly to surface runoff from the surrounding pastures.
Since you have volunteered to fence off the remaining tributary leading from a cow pond on
the west side of the main tributary, no further action is deemed necessary at this time.
Please be reminded that this office is awaiting your response to the Notice of
Violation issued on April 10, 2000. Please address your response to the attention of Mr.
Johnson.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact
Mr. Johnson or meat [phone].

Regarding your question concerning basing the waste utilization plan on
actual yield instead of the realistic yield estimate (RYE), you need to contact your
technical specialist. In general, documentation of the best yields for three-year out of
a five-year period is required. A comment needs to be added to the plan stating that
the estimates are based on actual data and not the RYE.

Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping
Animal Waste Management System
Facility Number 60-11
Mecklenburg County
This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN)
application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you
must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen
from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers.
Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to
be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IR111, IRR2, DRY], 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.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant -of the
DWQ staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Mecklenburg County, NC
Dear Mr. Cook:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on
June 11, 1999. This letter is being issued as a Notice of Deficiency due to the
incomplete waste application records and failure to have the waste analysis within 60
days of the waste applications.
During many of Mr. Johnson's inspections he has noted that some farms are
often missing one or more components of the farm plan that should be available for
review. Be advised that the following items must be available for review by the
inspector during the inspection.
• Certification forms.
• Site Diagram: Fencing, streams, buffer zones, and feed areas must be
shown.
• Waste Application records with accompanying waste analysis.
• Maps of acreage and irrigated fields.
• Waste Utilization plan: Tract/field number, usablelwettable acres (not
necessarily total acreage), list of crops, PAN required, and amount of
waste produced by livestock.
• Waste and Soil analysis info: Must have 3 years of data.
It is suggested that this be maintained in a single folder.
• Emergency Action Plan must be posted.
• Insect, Odor Control, and Mortality Checklists must be completed.
• Certified Operator renewal card.
Failure to have the above components available and complete could result in a
Notice of Violation or other enforcement actions.

Huntersville, NC 28078
Subject: Site Inspection
Cookson Dairy, Facility #: 60-11
Mecklenburg County, NC
Dear Mr. Cook:
Mr. Alan Johnson of this office has been asked on several occasions about the
appropriate time and proper method to take soil and waste samples. Also, during his
inspections, he has noticed that while the storage capacity may be adequate in the
storage pond/lagoon, in some cases it was not at the level set forth in the waste
utilization plan. Mr. Johnson has also noted that some animal operations using
hay/pasture systems do not appear to be properly managing the hay crop in the waste
application fields. This letter is to highlight some concerns and provide some
general guidance for the animal facilities regarding the management of the storage
pond/lagoon and waste application fields. For more specific/detailed information,
please contact your technical specialist or your local agricultural extension service.
Be advised that should a farm be found violating its farm plan and/or have an
unpennitted 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.
N/aste applications
Just as you manage the animals at your facility, proper management of the
waste (lagoon/storage pond level) is important. The waste must be pumped from the
ponds at the correct time and provide for maximum utilization of the nutrients by the
crop. Remember, waste application rates in your farm plan are based on agronomic
principles, and assumes the waste will be applied when the nutrients are required
(e.g., applying waste to corn at tasseling or bermuda grass in November is of little
use for the uptake of nitrogen). Also, the established application rate assumes that
the previous crop has been removed from the field.

Page 2
Grass and small grain crops grown for hay should be harvested in a timely manner. To
maximize nutrient uptake, as indicated in the waste utilization plan, and for highest quality, the
crop should be harvested at early boot stage (generally every 4 to 5 weeks). Small grain for
silage can be harvested in the soft dough stage when direct cut. Contact your agricultural
extension agent or technical specialist for proper guidance.
General Recommendations for Nitrogen (N) Application for Common Crops:
• Small Grains: One-third (113) N at planting and remainder in late February or early
March.
•
Corn/Sorg, hum: 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-
YT half (112) in mid-August to September.
• Bermuda grass: Establishing: 30 to 40 lbs N/ac at planting and 30 to 60 lbs N/ac when
runners appear (6 -8 wk. after planting). Maintaining: 50 to 60 lbs N/ac in April and the
remainder of the recommended amount in equal increments in June and July or after each
cutting.
Finally, there have been instances where the amount of waste pumped (as shown in the
waste application records) from the lagoon/storage pond does not appear to agree with the
amount of waste produced by the animals. One would expect on an annual basis that the amount
pumped would be approximately equal to the amount being produced. For example, if a dairy is
generating 453,000 gal/yr in waste, then approximately 453,000 gallons of waste should be
accounted for in the waste application records over a year. However, there may be some
difference due to how low the storage pond was pumped, the number of cows being held in the
facility, or the amount of rainfall.
Soil analysis (FREE)
Fifteen to twenty (15 to 20) soil samples per field (20 acres or less) is desirable. The
samples should be thoroughly mixed and sent in as one sample. Each sample should be pulled 4
inches deep for pastures and no -till systems and 8 inches deep for conventional tillage systems.
Taking samples during the fall is advisable. The state lab is not as busy at that time and
can provide a more timely turn around with the results.. This is also a good time to apply lime if
recommended by the soil test. When liming is necessary, it is important that it be applied as
suggested. Maintaining proper soil pH is as important (if not more so) than fertilizing to
maximize crop production.

Page 3
Waste samples/analysis ($4/sample)
The state lab now has the capability to conduct analyses and provide the results within
two working days via the internet. Through the US Postal service allow seven days. Take
samples in a timely manner such that waste application rates can be based on the most recent
sample results.
Six to eight (6 to 8) samples should be taken around the edge of the lagoon/storage pond,
approximately 6 feet from the.edge and 12 inches below the surface. These can be mixed to
make one sample. The sample should.be refrigerated if it is Dot 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
pi6&cer from having to go back and complete the waste application record at a later date.
For farmers who apply waste to hay fields and pastures, it is strongly suggested that
waste samples be taken quarterly if the waste is applied anytime during the growing season.
If you have questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson
or me at [phone].

Dear Henry Cook:
The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary engineering review of the subject application. Additional
information is required before we can continue our review. Please address the following by July 22, 2000:
Page 15 of the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) shows the total pounds of nitrogen to be used for the different
tracts listed in Table 1 & 2. Please provide an explanation of how these total were calculated. It appears
that there is enough land to utilize all of the nitrogen produced, however, the totals seem to be much lower
than could potentially be used.
Please note that all WUP revisions must be signed and dated by both the owner and the technical specialist. Please
reference the subject permit application number when providing the requested information. All information should be signed,
sealed, and submitted in duplicate to my attention at the address below. The information requested by this letter must be
submitted on or before July 22, 2000 or the Division will return your application as incomplete in accordance with 15A
N.C.A.C. 2H .0200 and your facility will be considered to be operating without a permit.
Please be advised that operation of the subject animal waste management system without a valid permit is a violation of North
Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and will subject you to the enforcement authority of the Environmental Management
Commission.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at [phone], extension 546.

and maintenance procedures establishes! in the approved animal waste management plan for the farm named above and .will
implement these procedures. I (we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste treaunent and
storage system or construction of new facilities will require a new certification to be: submitted to the Division of
Environmental ilanagemenE before the new animals are stocked. I (eve) understand that there must be no discharge of
animal waste from the storage or application system to sucrase waters of the state zither directly through a man-niade
conveyance oc °From a storm event less severe than the '_'S -year. 24-hour storm and there must not be run-off from the

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: COOKSON DAIRY FARM
County: Mecklenburg
Address: 15032 ERVIN COOK ROAD Kind of Operation: Dairy
HUNTERSVILLE, NC 28078
Type of Waste Facility: Waste Storage pond with portable aluminum
pipe and traveling gun for irrigation
Collection Pit to collect or'separate solids
and to be applied by manure spreader
Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a given storage
capacity. When the waste reaches the designed level, it must be land
applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce
the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses
nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each
application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crops to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan
in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that
it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based
on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste.
Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates and leach potential.
Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre
per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in run off to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop
production, the waste should be applied to a growing crop not more than 30
days prior to planting.
The acres needed to apply the animal was is based on typical nutrient
content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements may be more or
less based on the waste analysis report from your waste management
facility.
The design of your waste management facility is based on the following:
Amount of Waste Produced Per 18_0 days.-
a.
ays:a. 120 animals X 867 gal* waste/animal/180 days = 104,069 gal total
waste produced.
*based on 14.6 gal/day/cow and cows on lot 33% of time
b. 200 gal/day of waste water X 180 days = 36,000 gal
c. normal runoff/ (15,280 sq ft) = 169,445 gal
d. Total waste liquids (104,069 + 36,000 + 169,445) = 309,514 gal
Amount of Nitrogen Produced Per 180 days:
120 animals X 38.5 lbs N/animal/180 days = 4,620 lbs total N/180 days
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and
have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Your
facility is designed for 180 days of storage and therefore must be pumped
at that time or before.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:
The waste holding pond is designed for 180 day storage. Therefore it will
require emptying every 6 months. If necessary waste could be applied to
fescue during February -June and September -December. Waste irrigation water
may be applied to corn, sorghum, or small grain in fields #2 and #3 on
Tract 297 during the growing season when needed for nitrogen benefits as
long as nitrogen limits and infiltration rates are not exceeded. Note: The
waste in the pond must be maintained at or below the maximum liquid
elevation (2 feet 7 inches below the emergency spillway).
The manure solids that are separated out may be applied to corn, sorghum,
soybeans, or small grain on Tract 297 fields #1, #4, and #7; Tract 960.
fields #1, #2, #3, #4, #6, and #7; Tract 359 fields #1, #3, #5, and #6;.and
Tract 626 fields #4A and #4B not more than 30 days prior to planting a
crop. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop and the nutrient
content of waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
Animal waste may be applied to these fields with the use of a manure
spreader or honey wagon.
The 180 day volume of the waste holding pond 41,327 cubic feet = 11.3

inch = 11.3 acre -inches). One irrigation cycle of all the travel lanes at
the rate of 0.34 acre -inch per hour will take approximately 33.2 hours and
apply a total'.of 309,126 gal (11.3 acre -inches). At this rate 1.2
irrigation cycies will be required to pump down the entire 180 day storage
volume.

COOKSON DAIRY FARM OCTOBER 07, 1997
The total nitrogen contained in 180 days storage (based on the waste sample
of 1.5 lbs N/1000 gal) will be approximately 3,295 lbs. (41,327 cu.ft. x
7.48 gal/cu.ft.= 309,126 gal x 1.5 lbs N/1000 gal = 464 lbs N).
The holding pond will be pumped down prior to December to allow for
storage during the winter months when the ground may be saturated or frozen
and crops are not actively growing to take up nutrients. The pond will be
pumped as needed to provide adequate waste storage or as needed for
irrigation water on the growing crops during the times listed in the chart
on page 2 and the attached annual application schedule.
Soils for the fields used for application of liquid waste include:
CeB2 - Cecil sandy clay loam, 2 to 8 percent slopes, eroded
Recommendations and calculations are based on most current waste analysis
and crop rotation and tillage system. Waste should be analyzed yearly and
yearly soil samples are strongly encouraged to better utilize the nutrients
in the waste with the nutrient needs of the crop. Refer also to
specifications guide 633-2b and attachment B on waste sampling for
additional specifications and recommendations. Notify the Mecklenburg Soil
and Water Conservation District (704-336-2455) or the Natural Resources
Conservation Service Office (704-788-2105) before making any changes in
crop rotation or in tillage practices.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: COOKSON DAIRY FARM
Address: 15032 ERVIN COOK ROAD
HUNTERSVILLE, NC 28078
County: Mecklenburg
Kind of Operation: Dairy
Type of Waste Facility: Waste Storage pond with portable aluminum
pipe and traveling gun irrigation
Your animal waste management facility has been designed for a given storage
capacity. When the waste reaches the designed level, it must be land
applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground
water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce
the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops on the fields
where the waste is to be'applied. This waste utilization plan uses
nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each
application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crops to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan
in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that
it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based
on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste.
Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates and leach potential.
Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at_greater than 5 tons per acre
per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the
surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in run off to
surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift
and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop
production, the waste should be applied to a growing crop not more than 30
days prior to planting.
The acres needed to apply the animal was is based on typical nutrient
content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements may be more or
less based on the waste analysis report from your waste management
facility.
The design of your waste management facility is based on the following:
Amount of Waste Produced Per 180 days:_
a. 120 animals X 867 gal* waste/animal/180 days = 104,069 gal total
waste produced.
*based on 14.6 gal/day/cow and cows on lot 33% of time
b. 200 gal/day of waste water X 180 days = 36,000 gal
c. normal runoff/ (15,280 sq ft) = 169,445 gal
d. Total waste liquids (104,069 + 36,000 + 169,445) = 309,514 gal
Amount of Nitrogen Produced Per 180 days:
120 animals X 38.5 lbs N/animal/180 days = 4,620 lbs total N/180 days
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and
have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Your
facility is designed for 180 days of storage and therefore must be pumped
at that time or before.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:
The waste holding pond is designed for 180 day storage. Therefore it will
require emptying every 6 months. If necessary waste could be applied to
fescue during February -June and September -December. Waste irrigation water
may be applied to corn, sorghum, or small grain in fields #2 and #3 during
the growing season when needed for nitrogen benefits as long as nitrogen
limits and infiltration rates are not exceeded. Note: The waste in the
pond must be maintained at or below the maximum liquid elevation (2 feet 7
inches below the emergency spillway).
The manure solids that are separated out may be applied to corn, sorghum,
or small grain in fields #1, #4, and #7 not more than 30 days prior to
planting a crop. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop and the
nutrient content 'of waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can
utilize. Animal waste may be applied to these fields with the use of a
manure spreader or honey wagon.
The 180 day volume of the waste holding pond 41,327 cubic feet = 11.3
acre -inches (41,327 cu.ft. x 7.48 gallons/cu.ft. / 27,152 gallons/acre-
inch = 11.3 acre -inches). One irrigation cycle of all the travel lanes at
the rate of 0.34 acre -inch per hour will take approximately 3312 hours and
apply a total of, 309, 126 gal (11.3 acre -inches). At this rate 1.2
irrigation cycles will be required to pump down the entire 180 day storage
volume.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
I. Animal waste shall not reach sur=ace waters of the state
by runoff, dzi-0t, manmade conveyancas, direct application,
or direct d-.scharge during operation or land applicst;an.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is
prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject to the
assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by'the
Divis?on of Environmental Management for every day the
discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design
folder that the producer either owns or has long term
access to adequate land on which to properly apply the
waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of waste, he shall provide MRCS with a
copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a
landowner who is within a reasonable proxiaity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the
life expectancy of the production facility. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an
update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a
change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil
type, available moisture, historical data, climate
conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the rate of application for
other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation
System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no
greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate
filter strips will be used where runoff leaves the field.
These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers"
required by Dom.'. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Srrio_s
and Standard 390 (Interiy) - Riparian Forest Buffers.]
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking
after waste application. Waste should not be applied when
the wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil inca c rated on canvent4ona'_1y
tilled cropland. When applied to conservatian tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided
the applicat4on does not occur during a season prane to
flooding. (See "Weac.�er and Cl=aca In Nor=' Carolina" in
the Technical Reference - Environment file 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 conditions
conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of
application..
S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils,
during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in
such a manner that no more than 20 to 23 percent of the
leaf area is covered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 23 feet to
surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters
that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter
strips are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall, be applied in a manner not to reach other
property and public right-of-ways.
15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters,
drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over -
spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land
application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that
discharge directly into water courses, and only then at
agronomic rates provided the application causes no runoff
or drift from the site.

into the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide
adequate storage for a 25 -year, 24-hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). if needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited
to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and
structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
14. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and
erosion.
20. waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc.,
should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent

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

The question often comes up as to what warrants a Notice of Violation (NOV). An NOV may
be issued for the following instances, among others:
a) inadequate freeboard,
b) inadequate land for waste application,
c) application on an unapproved crop/acreage,
d) discharge of waste from lagoon/facility,
e) excessive vegetation on the sideslopes of a lagoon/pond, or
f) other minor deficiencies.
Examples of a deficiency would be the waste or soil analysis forms not being up to date or the
application records not being filled out properly.
Please note, failure to submit the certification form by December 31, 1997, does not exclude you
from the responsibility of maintaining your'storage pond/lagoon levels and waste application records.
Also, please be advised that North Carolina General Statutes provide for penalties of up to $10,000 per
day per violation as well as criminal penalties for violations of state environmental laws and regulations.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Alan Johnson or me

Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on
Agricultural Waste, was enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly on June 21, 1996. This bill
requires that a certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge by January 1, 1997, for each animal
waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses,
1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. Our
records indicate that your facility is registered with the Division of Water Quality and meets the requirements
for designating an OIC.
A training and certification program is not yet available for animal waste management systems involving
cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry. Owners and operators of these systems will be issued temporary animal waste
management certificates by the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission
(WPCSOCC). The temporary certificates will expire December 31, 1997, and will not be renewed. To obtain
a permanent certification, you will be required to complete ten hours of training and pass an examination by
December 31, 1997. A training and certification program for operators of animal waste management systems
involving cattle, sheep, horses, and poultry is now being developed and should be available by the spring of
1997. The type of training and certification required for the operator of each system will be based on the nature
of the wastes to be treated and the treatment process(es) primarily used to treat the animal waste.
As the owner of an animal operation with an animal waste management system, you must designate an
Operator in Charge and must submit the enclosed designation form to the WPCSOCC. If you do not intend to
operate your animal waste management system yourself, you must designate an employee or engage a contract
operator to be the Operator in Charge. The person designated as the Operator in Charge, whether yourself or
another person, must complete the enclosed application form for temporary certification as an animal waste
management system operator. Both the designation form and the application form must be completed and
returned by December 31, 1996.
If you have questions about the new requirements for animal waste management system operators, please call
Beth Buffington or Barry Huneycutt at 9191733-0025.

The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to
reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is
to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are needed so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner.
Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching
potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre
per year. 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

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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 DEM regulations.
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.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Plant Available Nutrient (PAN) are not the
same for application methods.
The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of
facility. A minimum of 18 acres are needed to apply the animal waste generated by this facility
at agronomic rates. This facility has over 300 acres available at the present time to properly
utilize the animal waste. Acreage requirements should be based on a current waste analysis
report from your waste management facility and the available receiving crop at the time of
application. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow
additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be
flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content range for specific crop
production. Adequate buffers shall be maintained between adjoining landowners, surface water
sources (ponds, streams, etc.) and highway right-of-ways.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A
NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
DESIGN CRITERA:
The animal waste storage pond was design and approved for this facility on January 1994 using
the following information:
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER 180 DAYS (cubic feet)
120 head x 14.6 gal/head/day x 8 hrs on lot/24 hrs/day x 180 days = 13,913 cu.ft.

was calculated to have a capacity of 33,462 ft3. This was determined and certified by an USDA-
NRCS engineering technician. At this capacity, the animal waste storage pond has a 150 day
storage period and still meets NRCS standands and specifications for a waste storage pond.

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the
N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of
North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients.
This plan only addresses nitrogen. Nitrogen rates in excess of 120 pounds per
acre are seldom justified for wheat, barley, oat, rye or triticale.

COOKSON DAIRY
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
Your facility is designed for 150 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be
removed on the average of once every 5 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 application
equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in table 1 and table 2.
Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report if assistance is needed in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying the
waste.
The farm operation is currently utilizing the services of a nutrient management consultant to map
the fields by using a global positioning system (GPS) to accurately located the fields for the
purpose of soil analysis testing and the placement of plant nutrients. The farm operators are also
maintaining yield records for each field to track production.
Animal waste generated in the holding pens around the milking palor may be either scraped into
the collection pit or stockpiled on site. In either case, all liquid animal waste is drained to the
collection pit. The majority of fresh surface water has been diverted from entering the waste
stream through a series of roof gutters and downspouts.
The collection pit was designed and installed (June 1994) to collect all animal waste (liquids and
solids) generated around the milking barn and to collect the waste water generated from the
milking operation. This waste is pumped up to the animal waste storage pond for future land
application..
Animal waste disposal will be completed by two methods, irrigation and broadcast application
for this dairy operation. The irrigation system consist of a single Cadman Model 3250 hose drag
traveler. For broadcasting, the farm operation has a 3188 gallon semi solid and liquid manure
applicator.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
Waste water irrigation will occur only on Tract 297, fields 2 and 3 (36 acres available). 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
Page 17 of 21 04/17/00

COOKSON DAIRY
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
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.
The 150 day volume of the waste holding pond is 33,462 cu.ft. This volume is equivelant to 9.2
acre -inches. (33 462 cu.ft. X 7.48 allons/cu.ft.) = 9.2 acre -inches
27,152 gallons/acre-inch
If surface irrigation is the method of land application utilized, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that the irrigation system installed is able to properly
irrigate the acres shown in the table of acres owned by the producer. Failure to apply the
recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may make this plan invalid.
Refer to the waste irrigation plan (Attachment #1) for complete guidance for the operation and
maintenance of the waste water irrigation system. This plan was developed by Ronald E. Sneed,
Ph.D., P.E., C.I.D. on April 03, 1996,
APPLICATION OF ANIMAL WASTE BY A SEMI SOLID AND LIQUID
MANURE SPREADER
The operator has a Gehl model 329 Scavenger lI manure spreader. It has a capacity to spread
3180 gallon semi solid and liquid manure. This spreader will use this to apply animal waste on
fields not covered by the traveling gun irrigation system. The animal waste facility is designed
for all of the waste to be drained and scraped into a pit to be pumped up to the waste holding
pond. When possible, the operator may scape and haul manure for application to the fields with
his manure spreader and not place the waste in the holding pond.
MANAGEMENT OF WASTE APPLICATION
No matter what method is used, waste is to be applied to crops and/or pasture during the growing
season when needed for nitrogen benefits or as needed for irrigation water as long as nitrogen
limits and infiltration rates are not exceeded.
The waste storage pond levels will be pumped down prior to December to allow storage during
the winter months when the ground may be saturated or frozen and crops are not actively
growing to take up nutrients. The waste is to be applied to the fields and crops listed in Table I
within the nitrogen limits listed. Waste will not be applied in such a manner that results in waste
runoff or over application of nutrients.
Application rates must be based on current waste analysis and applied to actively growing crops.
Waste must be analyzed as close to the time of each application as practical and at least within 60
days (before or after) of the date of application. Additionally, a representative Soil Fertility
Analysis shall be conducted annually on each application site receiving animal waste. The
Page 18 of 21 04/17/00

COOKSON DAIRY
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
results of these test shall be maintained on file for a minimum of three years. Proper records,
including maintenance, repair and irrigation (waste application) records, shall also be maintained
on site and in chronological and legible form for a minimum of three years.
The Division of Water Quality Regional Office in Mooresville will be notified at 704-663-1699
as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the following events:
a. Failure of any component of the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system resulting in a discharge to surface waters.
b. Spillage or discharge from a vehicle or piping system transporting animal waste to the
application sites which results in, or may result in, a discharge to surface waters.
C. Any deterioration or leak in a storage pond.
d. Failure to maintain adequate storage capacity in a storage pond that poses an immediate
threat to public health or the environment.
e. Overspraying animal waste either in excess of the limits set forth in this plan or where
runoff enters waters of the State.
£ Any discharge that bypasses a a storage pond.
Also, refer to Required Specifications, Irrigation Calibration, and Waste Sampling. (see

REQUIRED SPSCIFICATIONS
1. Animal waste shay_ not reach surface waters of the state
by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct apolication,
or direct discharge during operation or land appli cat -an.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is
prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject to the
assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by'the
Division of Env;renmental Management for every day the
discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design
folder that the producer either owns or has long ter
access to adequate land on which to properly apply the
waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to
properly dispose of waste, he shall provide MRCS with a
cagy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a -
landowner who is within a reasaaab le proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for wase application for the
life expectancy of the production facility. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an
update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a
change in the operation, increase in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on sail
type, available moisture, historical data, climate
conditions, and level of management, unless there are
regulations that restrict the race -of application for
other nutrients.
4. Animal waste map be applied to land that has a Resource
Managepent System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation
System (ACS). If an ACS is used the sail loss shall be no
greater than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate
filter strips will be used where runoff leaves the field.
These filter strips will be in addition to "Suffers"
required by DEM. (See FOTG Scandard 393 - Filter St_;ts
and Standard 390 (Interj!) - Riparian Forest Buffers.]
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking
after Waste applecation. Waste should not be applied when
the grind is b law ing .
6. When ani=al waste is to be arplied an acres subject to
flooding, it will be sail ince^crated an conven ionallp
tilled cropland. When applied to ccnservat'_on twilled
crops or grassland, the :cast_ map be broadcast provided
the application does act occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "meas er and C Date J:n Vorrh Carn?ina" :Ln
the Technical Reference - Favircrnment tele for guidance.)

RE-QUIRFD SPECIFICATIONS
(con tSnuod)
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the
soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur
offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does
not cause drift from the site during application. No
ponding should occur in order to control conditions
conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of
application..
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils,
during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.
9. Animal, waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in
such a manner that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the
leaf area is covered.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to
surface water. This distance may,.be reduced for waters
that are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter
strips are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal' waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to
wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a mar=er not to reach other
property and public right-of-ways.
15. An --nal waste shall not be dyscharged into surface waters,
drainageways or wetlands by a discharge or by over -
spraying. animal waste may be applied to prior converted
wetlands provided they have been approved as a land
application site by a "technical specialist". Animal
waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that
discharge directly into water courses, and only then at
agronomic rates provided the application causes -no runoff
or drift from the site.

lb. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged
into the amoral waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operat-ing level to provide
adequate storage for a 25 -year, 24 --hour storm event in
addition to the one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited
to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon azeas
should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and
structures should'be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and
erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc.,
should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent
breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance
checklist should be kept on site.

I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specification
and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the
approved animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above. I
(we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the
waste treatment and storage system or construction of new
facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the
Division of Environment Management (DEM) before the new animals are
stocked. I (we) also understand that there must be no discharge of
animal waste from this system to surface wasters of the state from
a storm event less severe than the 25 --yeas, 24-hour storm. The
approved plan will be filed on-site at the farm office and at the
office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District and will
be available for review by DE.M upon request.

Operation and Maintenance Plan
For
l/ ,
Waste Storage Pond
The purpose of this plan is to provide guidelines for
carrying out the routine ma.i.ntenance work needed to keep the
waste storage pond operating as planned. Routine maintenance
is considered to be normal good care of the waste storage
pond and the surrounding area. Good maintenance adds to the
usefullness and permanence of the facility.
The routine maintenance of this waste storage pond involves
but is not limited to th, :ollowing:
1. Maintenance. of a vegetative cover on the embankment and
the surrounding areas: �Uis being established on
these areas. Beginning in 199 _ and each year thereafter,
the embankment and surroundi.ng areas should be fertilized
with 5S00 pounds of l{- 1Q -i0 or _ f inch of effluent
from the waste storage pond per acre to maintain a vigorous
stand•
2. Control of weeds, brush and trees in the grassed spillway
and on the embankment: This may be done by mowing, spraying,
or chopping, or a combination of all three. This will be
done at least once each year and possibly twice in those
years favorable to.a heavy growth of vegetation. The local
Extension Agent or SCS office can supply the latest
information on spray materials and the best time to apply
them.
3. Protection of the grass on the embankment and surrounding
areas: Uncontrolled vehicular traffic can create trails or
ruts. Runoff from storms can enlarge these ruts into
gullies. If ruts appear to be forming, stop the.traffic
doing the damage.
4. At the end of the designed storaged period i 5 0 days,
it will be necessary to completely empty this storage
faci.li.ty. This will be accomplished by agi tat,i.ng, hauling
and applying the effluent onto designated areas as noted on
the Waste Utilization Plan Map. Spring and early fall
a pp 1i. ca tions will maximize the ferti.11i.zer benefit of the
effluent. A marker will be used in the waste storage pond to
show when the maximum liquid level is reached.

5. Maintenance inspections of this facility should be made
during the initial filling, at least annually, and after
every major storm event.
1. Embankment
a. settlement, cracking or "jug" holes
b. side slope stability- slumps or bulges
c. erosion and/or wave action
d. rodent damage
e. seepage or other leakage
f. condition of vegetative cover
2. Reservoir Area
a. undesirable ve-ptati.ve growth
b. undesirable floating debris
c. check liquid level to determine if
disposal of effluent is needed
3. Fences and Gates
a. loose or damaged posts
b. loose or broken wires
c. open or damaged gates

Effective utilization of manure is not possible if you do not know bow much is being spread over a
given area Calibration of your spreader is a simple and effective way of improving utilization of
nutrients in manure more effectively. Only by knowing the application rate of your spreader can you
correctly apply manure to correspond to your crop nerds and prevent water quality problems through
the over application of animal manure.
Applicators can apply manure, at varying rates and patterns, depending on forward travel and/or
PTO speed, gear box settings, gate openings, operating pressures, spread widths and overlaps.
Calibration defines the combination of settings and travel speed needed to apply manure, bedding
or wastewater at a desired rate and to ensure uniform application.
Spreader Capacity
Liquid spreader capacities are normally rated by the manufacturer in gallons. Viultiply by 0.0042
to get tons.
Solid and semi-solid spreaders are rated by the manufacturer either in bushels or cubic feet
(multiply bushels by 1.24 to get cubic feet). Most spreaders have two rating capacities: (1) struck
or level full, and (2) heaped. Calibration of solid manure spreaders based on its capacity
(volume) is difficult to estimate accurately because the density of solid and semi-solid manures
are quite variable. Density is the weight of the manure per volume of manure ( pounds per cubic
foot). Manure density varies depending on the type and amount of bedding used as well as its
storage method. Therefore, if you estimate spreader application rates as the volume of the
manure the spreader holds you are overlooking the fact that some manure weighs more than other
manure. This can cause a significant error when calculating manure application rates.
Since manures and litters have different densities, an on-farm test should be done. To determine
the Ioad (tons) of a manure spreader:
I . Weigh an empty 5 -gallon bucket.
2. Fill the bucket level full with the material to be spread. Do not pack the material in the
bucket but ensure that it settles similar to a loaded spreader.
3. Weigh the bucket again. Subtract the empty bucket weight from this weight to calculate
the weight of the contents.
4. Multiply weight of contents by 1.5 to calculate pounds per cubic feet, density.
ort-NIP—Muc.4 1'. t9Q7_,P,{e i3

3. Multiply the manure density by the cubic feet capacity of the spreader and divide by 2000
to get the tons of material in a spreader load.

Solid and Semi-solid Manure Spreaders
In order to calibrate a spreader for solid manure (20 pe.cenc or more solids), the following
materials are needed:
1. Bucket
2. Plastic sheet, tarp or old bedsheet. An even size, 3 feet by 3 fee:, 10 feet by 10 fee:, or 12 feet
by 12 feet, will make calculations easier.
3. Scales
Calioration method.-
1.
ethod.
1. Locate a large and reasonably smooth, flat area where manure can be applied.
2. Spread the plastic sheet, tarp or bed sheet smoothly and evenly on the ground.
3. Fill the spreader with manure to the normal operating level. Drive the spreader at the
normal application speed toward the sheet spread on the ground, allowing the manure to
begin leaving the spreader at an even, normal rate.
4. Drive over the sheet at the normal application speed and settings while continuing to
apply manure. If a rear discharge spreader is used, three passes should be made: first,
drive directly over the center of the sheet, the other two on opposite sides of the center at
the normal spreader spacing overlap.
3. Neigh the empty bucket and plastic sheet, tarp, or blanket.
6. Collect all manure spread on the sheet and place it into the bucket.
7. Weigh bucket and manure and subtract the weight of the empty bucket and ground sheet.
This will give you the pounds of manure applied to the sheat.
S. Repeat the procedure three times to get a reliable average.
9. Determine the average weight of the three manure acoUcations.

10. Calculate the application rate using the following formula or Table 5-3:
Application rate (tenslwre) a
Ib manure collected x 21.73
sheet length (ft) x sheet width (ft)
11. Repeat the procedure at different speeds and/or spreader settings until the desired
application rate is achieved.
Example:
What is the application rate (tons per acre) if you collect 3.5 pounds of manure on a 10 -foot by
10 -foot tarp during a calibration run?
3.3 lb manure x 21.73
Application rate (tonsiacre) - 10 ft x 10 ft ' 1.53 toWacre

/Many times it may be necessary to adjust the rate in which waste is applied from the way it is
normally spread. Changes in application rate can easily be done by increasing or decreasing the
speed in which the waste is being applied. In order to perform these calculations, the spreader
load (tons), duration of application (minutes), and the average width (feet) of a normal
application needs to be known. The application rate and travel speed can be found using the
following equations:
spreader load (tons) x 493
Application rate (tonsfacre) time (min) x width (ft) x travel speed (mph)
spreader load (tons) x 495
Travel speed (mph) ' time (min) x width (ft) x application rate (tcns+xre)

Example:

Your spreader application width is 20 feet and your spreader empties in 6 minutes.
3 Rona x 493
Tmvei spied (mph) " 6 thin x 30 it x .t tonvw.le = 3. � mph
Spreader Pattern Uniformity
To determine the uniformity of spread and the amount of overlap needed, place a line of small
pans or trays equally spaced ('L to 4 feet) across the spreader path. The pans should be a
minimum of 12 inches by 12 inches (or 15 inches in diameter), but no more than 24 inches by
24 inches; and 2 inches to 4 inches deep. Make one spreading pass directly over the center pan.
Weigh the contents caught in each pan or pour the contents into equaily sized glass cylinders or
clear plastic tubes and compare the amount in each.
The effective spread width can be found by locating the point on either side of the path center
where manure contents caught in the containers is half of what it is in the center. The distance
between these points is the effective spreader width. The outer fringes of the coverage area
beyond these points should be overlapped on the next path to ensure a uniform rate over the
entire field. "Flat -top," "pyramid," or "oval" patterns are most desirable and give the most
uniform application. "fid," "W," "steeple," or "lopside" patterns are not satisfactory and one or
more of the spreader adjustments should be made.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF PONTIS AND RESFRVOIRS /9,10 ZAGoe.✓ir
Clearing: All trees and brush shall be removed from the impoundment area before any water is
impounded. Whenever practical, this clearing should he delayed until after the dam is built to
hold erosion and downstream sedimentation to a minimum. Stumps may be removed or trees may be
sawed off as low as practical and stumps left standing.
The foundation of the impoundment structure (dam) shall be cleared of all trees,
stumps, roots, brush, sod, and debris. All stumps and all roots exceeding one (I)IJ nch in
diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1) foot. Satisfactory disposition will
be made of all debris.
After clearing is completed the foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly and
roughly leveled, with suitable equipment, before placement of any embankment material.
Cutoff Trench: A cutoff trench shall be excavated an shown on the plans. The cutoff ttench
shall be backfilled In thin layers, not to exceed 8 inches in depth.' All standing water shall
be removed from the trench before backfi'l+--- is started.
Embankment Construction: Tile material placed in the embankment shall be free of sod, roots,
stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable materials. The fill material shall
be placed and spread over tite entire fill in layers not to exceed R inclies in thickness. Con-
struction of the fill shall be undertaken only at such time; that the moisture content of the
fill material will permit a reasonable degree of compaction.
Fill Materials: Borrow areas will be designated on the plans and assigned priority (I, 2, 3,
etc.). All fill material shall be taken from these designated areas. SCS technicians will
advise the contractor, regarding the maximum drpth of cut in each borrow area. The contractor
will not exceed this depth. In the event thi_a depth is exceeded in the Impoundment area, It
shall be the responsihility of the contractor, without additional cost to the landowner, to
cover the exposed area with a minimum of. 2 feet of impervious material.
Riaex_& Conduit Pipe: W1ten it is indicated on the plans that a riser and conduitoln e--e-
quired,t ey m fit~ht-istst�lled as a complete nnit. The inlet sta I he protected.

Vegetated Spillway(s): Spillwny(s) will be excavated in undisturbed earth to tite dimensions,
grades, slopes, and location as shown in the plana and as staked upon the ground.
Pollution Control During Construction: Stripping of embankment and borrow areas shall be done
as they are needed in n normal sequence of construction. Use temporary mulch protection on all
disturbed areas that are subject to erosion and will not have substantial additional work per-
formed for 30 days or more. Temporary stream crossing structures will be used where fording of
streams will cause excessive sediment pollution. Protection against pollutants such as
chemicals, fuel, lubricants, sewage, etc., will be provided during construction.
Vegetation: All exposed embankment, spillway, and borrow area shall be seeded to an adapted
type of vegetation as soon as possible after construction.
Specialal Provisions: Dam embankments shall be constructed i.n continuous, horizontal
layers from abutment to abutment. If the surface of any layer becomes hard and
smooth, it shall be scarified parC I-I to the centerline to a mi.ni.mum depth of
three (3) inches.
Fill shall not be placed upon a frozen surface, nor shall snow., ice, or frozen
material be incorporated in the fill.
The fill material shall be compacted

GENERAL
These specifications are to.be made a part of detailed engineering plans of the pro-
posed embankment, spillway(s), and reservoir.
No changes nor deviations from these plans and specifications shall be allowed without a
written amendment, in advance of change, from the responsible technician of the Soil Conser-
vation Service.
All facilities for impounding water shall comply strictly with all state and local laws
regulating such activity.
The Soil Conservation Service makes no warranty, expressed or implied, of the impounding
structure or the water holding ability of the structure.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF:
A. Landowners:
The landowner will acquaint himself with the provisions of these plans find specifications
to determine that the completed structure will fulfill his present and future needs. Inspection
during construction will be the responsibility of the landowner.
lie may request inspection by SCS employees during construction and upon completion of work.
Where benefits are to be received from Government agencies, or when the dam falla,under the'
Dam Safety Law of 1967, inspection and approval by SCS employees are mandatory.
11. Contractors:
The contractor will acquaint himself with the provisions of these plans and specifications,
conditions at the site that may affect Ilia schedule of operation, and the location and meaning
of all stakes on the mite. Fallure to do so will not relieve him of the difficulties and cost
pursuant to satisfactorily completing the work in compliance with these plans and specifications
and any written or verbal contract with the landowner. All bench marks, grade, and line stakes
will be left undisturbed and protected by the contractor to facilitate construction and in-
spection. '
The contractor, weather permitting, will schedule his work so that he will start or the
agreed date and work will be a continuous operation until satisfactorily completed. All
damages occurring to completed work or materials, by the elements or otherwise, during con-
struction, will 6e the responsibility of the contractor. Partial or damaged work and/or re-
placed materials damaged from any cause will be paid for by the contractor. Absence of in-
spections during construction will not relieve the contractor from completing the work in
strict compliance with these plans and specifications.
Upon completion of the work, before moving his equipment, the contractor will request a
final inspection by the landowner and an employee of the SCS. The contractor will then receive
approval that all work has been completed satisfactorily and/or lie may complete those items that
vary from the plans and specifications in order that a final inspection will result in approval.
C. U. S. Department of Agriculture - Soil Conservation Service:
The United States and its employees are in no manner a party to any verbal or written
contract between the landowner and the contractor. SCS employees, within limit of personnel
available, will inspect and advise on techulques during construction to assure satisfactory
compliance with the plans and specifications.
SCS employees will, upon reasonable notice, conduct a final inspection for strict compli-
ance with all plans and specifications concerning this structure. inspection will determine
the satisfactory completion of work so that (a) approval may be given for the eligibility of
the landowner to receive benefits from any Government agency concerned with this structure,
(b) final payment may be made to the contractor, and (c) the pool may be filled under the
provisions -3f the Dam Safety Law of 1967.

RE: Application No. AWC600011; Cookson Dairy, Mecklenburg County
Dear Ms. Cauley:
I am responding to your request for additional information for the above reference Dairy
operation. On page 15 of the Waste Utilization Plan (WUP) for Cookson Dairy, the total
nitrogen required by the field crops is calculated by adding only the pounds of nitrogen
needed for each field for the crop, which requires the least amount of nitrogen. Since
the Dairy operator needed flexibility for the best management of crop production, the
operator wanted to include all field crops that may be planted in each field. Some of the
crops may be doubled cropped each year, requiring additional nitrogen needs. I used
the lowest nitrogen -requiring crop for each field to show that the dairy operation has
sufficient land to apply animal waste.
If you need further information or clarification, please contact me.
Sincerely,
v;;A U��

Mr. E. H. Cook
Cookson Dairy Farm
15032 Ervin Cook Road
Huntersville, NC 28078
Dear Mr. Cook:
Thank you for the opportunity to provide you with a design for a wastewater irrigation system for
your dairy wastewater holding pond. The size of the holding pond is approximately 350,000 gallons
and is designed for a six-month capacity. The system is designed as a collection system for all of
your wastewater, but the solid waste is mainly being handled in the dry form with a conventional
manure spreader and the only wastewater going to the lagoon is milking room wastewater and runoff
from the feed lot.
An analysis made of your wastewater on February 14, 1996, indicates a nitrogen value of 1.4 pounds
per 1000 gallons or approximately 980 pounds of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) per year as
contrasted to the value of 9240 pounds per acre per year if all of your waste and wastewater is
deposited in the manure holding pit. (Waste Utilization Plan, January 13, 1994).
Based on double cropping small grain (wheat) and corn silage, your plan indicated that you would
have 68 acres of corn at 100 pounds of PAN/acre/year and 60 acres of wheat at 80 pounds of
PAN/ace/year. The values typically being used in 1996 are 10-12 pounds of PAN/ton of corn silage
and 1.7-2.4 pounds of PAN/bushel of wheat. There..are no values given for wheat hay, but I would
suspect it would be 40-50 pounds of PAN/ton of dry matter.
Under your conditions where you are producing 20 tons of silage and 100 bales of wheat hay, your
PAN utilization will be approximately 300 pounds of PAN per acre/year. This means that you will
only need about 980 _ 300 = 3.27 acres of land to handle the PAN.
However because you will be generating about 650,000 to 700,000 gallons of wastewater spreading
that on 3.27 acres would be 7.91 acre inches per acre per year and this is probably more than you
could apply in some years. That would be about 5.3 inches on your corn silage and 2.6 inches on the
wheat.
You indicated that you wanted to apply the wastewater in Field 2, which is north of the manure
storage pit, and to mainly utilize the area west of the vegetated waterway which runs generally
northeast -southwest, a total of approximately 18 acres. There is another shorter vegetated waterway
further west in that field.
Consulting I n#6eer -- Irrigation Design, Wastewater Management, Environmental Policies and Resulatiom

The regulations that govern land application of wastewater specify that the wastewater be applied
to a growing crop or a bare soil that will have a growing crop in no more than 30 days, that the
wastewater be applied such that the PAN does not exceed agronomic rates and that there not be any
runoff. At present the regulations only apply to nitrogen. At some point in the future, if other.
nutrients such as phorphous (P) or potassium (K20) are considered, in your case more land will be
required because the P and K20 are available in higher rates than N and normally less of these two
elements is required.
There are some other regulations that have to be followed and I have taken the liberty to include
these since they are not attached to your waste management plan. One important regulation is that
wastewater will not be applied such that it reaches adjacent property owners or road rights of way.
Animal waste cannot be applied closer than 100 feet of wells, and closer than 25 feet to surface
water. Also animal waste cannot be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned
by the land owner.
Equipment
As I understand your situation you would like to use a Cadman Model 3250 hose drag traveler. This
machine has a 3.25 -inch ID hose with a length of 850 feet. Normally this machine is used with a
Nelson SR 150 sprinkler. I would recommend that you use a 1.0 -inch taper bore nozzle. At a
pressure of 80 psi, this nozzle has a discharge of 260 gpm and a diameter of 355 feet. The reason
that I am recommending this nozzle rather than the 1.1 -inch nozzle that has a discharge of 315 gpm
and a diamater of 375 feet at 80 psi is that we have to have an application rate lower than the
infiltration rate of the soil.
The infiltration rate of the Cecil soil on your farm is approximately 0.35 -inch per hour. It is only
0.30 for bare soil. The application rate of the 1.0 taper bore nozzle is computed as follows:
inches per hour = 96.3 x gpm -360
n(.9r)Z w
gpm = sprinkler gpm = 260
r = sprinkler radius= 177.5
w = 330°
96.3 x 260 x 0.34 per hour
7t(.9 x 177.5)2 330
The 1.1 -inch taper bore orifice will have an application rate of 0.37 -inch per hour,which is slightly
above the infiltration rate. If the 1.1 -inch nozzle is used, certainly that is the absolute largest nozzle
that should be used with the 3250 traveler. The friction loss in the hose, using the 1.1 -inch nozzle
is 45.24 psi and using the 1.0 -inch nozzle the friction loss is 34.7 psi. This is computed using the
Hazen -Williams equation.

You have also indicated that you planned to use 6 -inch Ring -Lok aluminum pipe. The friction
loss in that pipe can be determined by the Hazen -Williams equation, by an industry slide rule or
by the use of a friction loss chart.

The question may be asked as to which is correct or the most correct. The Hazen -Williams
equation is probably the most correct.
For Field 2, the length of the main line will not be more than 650 feet, so friction loss in the main
line is not a significant issue. According to the ASCS map and your notes, T297 is your farm.
You did not indicate whether T626 was also your farm. You indicated that wastewater could be
applied to Field 3, which is pasture, and also Field 6. Field 6, 7297 is too small for a traveling
gun sprinkler. Wastewater will be thrown out of the field and into the woods and also into the
stream on the east side of the field. However Fields 2 and 3 give you adequate land for your
dairy waste.
Based on pumping 260 gpm to the traveler with a nozzle pressure of 80 psi, you will need to
pump to deliver 260 gpm at 128 psi. Calculations are shown below.

Sprinkler pressure 80.00
Friction loss in supply Iine (.34 psi1100 ft. x 650 ft.) 2.21
Friction loss in hose on traveler 34.70
Elevation of nozzle tip above ground (9 ft.) 3.90
Elevation difference in field (10-12 ft.) 5.20
Miscellaneous loss in discharge hose and fittings 2.00
TOTAL 12841 psi

The brake horsepower required to operate this pump is
HP = TDH(feet) x gpm
3960 x Pump Efficiency
TDH = 128.21 psi = 296 feet
gpm = 260
Pump Eff = 60-65 percent =.60-.65
HP = 296 x 260 = 32 HP
3960 x .60
With an engine that has an efficiency of 75 percent such as a diesel engine
Engine HP = 75 = 43HP
You have indicated that you would like to use the Houle high pressure irrigation power take -off
operated pump. This company does not provide a curve for this pump. Indications are that
maximum pressure is 150 psi, that the horsepower range in 110 to 115 HP at 1000 rpm. However
I have no data to verify any of these facts. You indicate that you have seen it in operation and that
it does work. I have enclosed a pump curve for a Mco Slurry Pump and a pump chart for a
Berkeley PTO Pump and a pump curve for a Gorman Rupp PTO Pump. These are similar to the
pump you need for your operation.
System Operation
In Field 2, you can make only two pulls through a portion of the field and one pull through the
remainder. Your first lane should be least 180 feet from the property boundary . (On a windy day
this will not be adequate, because I have seen drift 200 to 300 feet beyond a field border.) The lane
spacing is typically 70-75 percent of diameter, so 70 percent of 355 feet is 249.5 feet or 250 feet.
For two passes through the field, you need 180 feet + 250 feet +180 feet = 610 feet. On the east end
of the field you have more than that but do not have 860 feet which you will need for three pulls
through the field.
It is also possible for you to irrigate with wastewater the vegetated waterway provided the material
does not leave the site. You can also make one pull through a portion of Field 3, which is pasture.
You will need to operate the sprinkler on a 330° angle to insure that you do not exceed the
infiltration rate of the soil. You should not apply more than 0.75 to 1.00 -inch of wastewater at one
application and may need to apply even less if there is any evidence of runoff. To apply 0.75 -inch
of wastewater the travel speed of the sprinkler cart shall be 2.23 feet per minute; for 1.00 -inch of
application, the speed is 1.67 feet per minute.

s = I.605 x 260 - 1.67 feet per minute

A glycerin filled pressure guage needs to be mounted on the pump and on the sprinkler. The pump
pressure needs to be adequate to give you 80 psi at the sprinkler. The use of pressure gauge is
critical to operation of the system to indicate that the system is being operated as it was designed.
Maintenam_of the System
This system should not require major maintenance. The traveler should be housed in a shed when
it is not being used to prevent sunlight from deteriorating the hose. The hose should be kept away
from high levels of ammonia. Grease fittings on the pump and on the traveler should be serviced
as the service manual provided by the supplier. If such is not supplied question the suppler. The
aluminum pipe should be stored off the ground when not being used so that there is air movement
around the pipe. With the low level of solids in the manure pit, sediment in the aluminum pipe
should not be a problem.
Summary
Enclosed are three sheets required by NRC, a drawing (scale 1 inch =100 feet), a chart on the
traveler, a chart on the pump, charts on three other pumps, an aluminum pipe friction loss chart and
a sprinkler chart. I have also returned some of the original material which you sent.
Thank you for allowing me to develop the plan for you. If I can be of additional assistance, please
let me know.
