Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit. In accordance with your application received on April 29, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Tommy McLester, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and ternunates your previous COC Number AWS900040 which expired on April 30, 2003. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Hog -Hill Swine Farm, located in Union County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 300 Farrow to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until October 1, 2004. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational inm foration must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals. If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed. The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property. ��� N MMR Non -Discharge Permitting Unit Internet httpJ/h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 Telephone (919) 733-5083 Fax (919)715-6048 Customer Service Center Telephone 1-877-623-6748 An Equal Opportunity Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility.

RECORDING SYSTEM WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN Producer: �ary,m ✓ X 574 Location: C5c,,o 1,1a, go "rL 3 s Telephone:3_ Type Operation: Number of Animals : 3 (Design Capacity) �P 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 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 strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic }Melds 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. 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. R'ith special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10' tons per acre per Year. 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. 'Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to Planting. Injecting the waste or disIcng will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carved out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An' additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If rye growth is harvested on time and does not significantly shade the bermuda, PAN rates for the subsequent bermuda crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, which ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading bermuda and reducing its yields. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced in accordance with NRCS Technical Standard #590. Annual Ryegrass : Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short Bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging Bermuda during April -May period. To favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with annual ryegrass must be reduced in accordance with NRCS Technical Standard #590. 0 z :D 0 z 0 tL O uj rr (f) 0 Ef) I I '��5 ''\ ` _ V�`ycp•s+• .T.+ ';�� : �.t. .-`! -I • ��:.Y �•.,1�,�';-.�,,�; Fir• - ��� �` /ti� , _ .. •.. •ice ` � n =��I �; , Y� ,T•' Y �f..s .r� ,I,'I '�� ol - - li ,t} �, a� / o \ err • ��.'11'=+ .. � ' �J � ••• �' �r `S".

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runo$ drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica- tion 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 foider that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, helshe shall provide a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity, allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation.... such as increased animal numbers, method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization. 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 of other nutrients. 4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding Iess than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land 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 Strips], S. Odors can be reduced by injecting 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 wiII 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 & Climate in North Carolina" in NDGS Field Office Technical Deference File - ENVIRONNMNT 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 ... to e6niroI odor and flies. S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not 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 and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shaII not be applied to crops more than 30 days prior to planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. I I. Any new swine facility sited on or alter October 1, 1995 shall comply with the follbwiiig: Waste applieation cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary, a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch. For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - FiIter Strips]. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. Page 1 R1=LDATA 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 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 run- off 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. Berens and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19. Waste Dandling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent break- downs, 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 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels 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 is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for 5 years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be kept for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. Page 2 emacpin.wpd EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN In case of overflow and/or danger of breaching of the lagoon embankment, the operator/owner should enact the following steps immediately: (1) Begin land application of the wastes immediately. Continue application until the liquid level in the lagoon is below the breach or spill level. (2) Contact the contractor of your choice to immediately begin repairs to control overflow. Permanent repairs may need to be enacted at a later date. Remember; It is your responsibility to prevent discharge. If one contractor is not available, you should continue to contact others until you receive an immediate response. (3) Contact the Dhision Of Environmental Management to report the spill. The regional number is 1-704-663-1699. If after hours or no answer,call D.E. M. in Raleigh at 1-919-733-3358. Give the name of the facility, the location, and the D.E.M. registration number. The registration number for this farm is (4) Contact the Technical Specialist who approved the lagoon for assistance in the repair of the facility. Your Technical Specialist is P rx n� 24— His/her phone number is If they are not available ask to be assigned someone with lagoon authority for immediate assistance. (5) If the breach of the dam or a sudden additional breach could cause danger dournstream(i.e.- roads, houses, playgrounds,etc) call 911 or your local Sheriff's Department @ 3T3 -o.r �8_3- 38�� -- (6) After spill has been eliminated or controlled asses extent of spill and damage to dam. (7) Contact as many downstream neighbors as possible to inform them of spill and pollutants to stream. (8) Maintain this plan on site at all tunes with all phone numbers filled in. Update phone numbers annually to ensure accuracy. THIS NOTICE IS TO BE POSTED ON SITE AND EASILY ACCESSIBLE AT ALL TMES. Operation and Maintenance Plan This facility is to be maintained in a safe and healthy condition at all tunes, in compliance with all local, state and federal laws. Impoundment A protective cover of vegetation will be established and maintained on all areas disturbed during construction, (embankments, berms, diversions etc.). Lagoon areas must be mowed and kept. accessible to visual inspection. Keep all lagoon areas free of woody vegetation, especially the top of dam, pool edges and back slope of embankments. Perform a regular inspection and repair as necessary any erosion, rodent burrows, seepage or other threats to the integrity of the impoundment. Waste Handling Equipment Perform regular inspection and repair as necessary all waste handling equipment, (pumps, meters, pipes and electrical components etc.) to avoid leaks, overflow or other spillage of effluent. Manage to avoid excessive waste volume situations due to unexpected failure of equipment. Liquid level Establish visible markers to delineate top and bottom pumping ]units. Maintain maximum liquid level six inches below emergency spillway. Monitor sludge accumulation annually and remove as necessary to keep at least four feet of liquid capacity available. Maintain separate disposal areas for sludge and apply at agronomic rates with no runoff. Sample sludge or use book values for N in calculating disposal rates. Permits Maintain emergency action plan in a prominent location at the facility. beep current and available all permits, licenses, etc. as required by the State of North Carolina.

NRCS This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes frorryour operation are leaking, overflowing, or running. offsite. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessiblelocation for all employees at the facility. The followingare some action items you should take. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below. A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are: a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam. b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate. c. Stop all flows to the lagoon immediately. d. Call a pumping contractor. e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon. B: Runoff from waste application fieldactions include: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce ninoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff. e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C: Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include: a. Stop recycle pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge. d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. December 18, 1996 a P* 4ft/1 D: Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -actioninclude: a. Stop recycle pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Make sure no siphon occurs. d. Stop all flows in the house, flush systems, or solid separators. e. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. E: Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing Ieaks- possible action: a. Dig a susail sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to lagoon. b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 2. Assess the extent of the spill andnote any obvious damages. a. Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g.

Monroe, NC 28110 Subject: Operation Review/Compliance Hog Hill Swine, Facility #: 90-40 Union County, NC Dear Mr. McLester: 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 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.

This letter is being issued as a Notice of Violation (NOV) for failing to perform a waste analysis within 60 days of the waste application date. During the inspection -it was noted that the fall 1999 waste applications did not have an accompanying waste analysis that was dated by a laboratory within 60-days of the application date.

The farm plan states that approximately I million gallons of waste should be produced by your operation annually. Your records show that a total of only 201,000 gallons of waste were land applied to the waste application field during 1999. This discrepancy needs to be explained. It is requested that a written response be submitted to this Office by June 5, 2000 indicating the actions taken to correct the noted problems. Also, it is requested that your response reference the date and subject of this NOV, including the facility number. Please address the response to the attention of Mr. Johnson.

Monroe, NC 28110 Subject: DWQ Animal Waste Operations Site Inspection Report Hog Hill Swine, Facility #: 90-40 Union County, NC Dear Mr. McLester: Mr. Alan Johnson of this Office conducted a site inspection of your facility on May 11, 1999. In general the facility appeared to be in good shape. However, it was noted that the vegetation around the swine houses and on the lagoon embankments needs to be maintained. 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. The following items must be available for review by the inspector during the inspection. • Certification forms. • Site Diagram: Fencing, streams, buffer zones, feed areas must be shown. • Waste Application records with accompanying waste analysis. • Maps of acreage and irrigated fields. • Waste Utilization plan: Tract/field number, usable/wettable 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. Also remember that waste applications should be made during the time the crop can utilize the nutrients in the waste. In general waste should be applied no earlier than 30 days prior to planting. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson or me at (704) 663-1699. Sincerely, D. Rex Gleason , P. E.

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. IRRI, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2, SLDI , 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 (919) 733-5083 ext. 571. Sincerel Kerr T.

Monroe, NC 28110 4`-WAYNE Subject: Site Inspection p MCDEVITT.-;;,.. ��}rSHCRETARY:h--s �-- Hog Hill Swine, Facility #: 90-40 Union County, NC Dear Mr. McLester: ' Mr. Alan Johnson of this office has been asked on several occasions about the appropriate time and proper method to take soil and waste samples. Also, during his inspections, he has noticed that while the storage capacity may be adequate in the - storage pond/lagoon, in some cases it was not at the level set forth in the waste utilization plan. Mr. Johnson has also noted that some animal operations using hay/pasture systems do not appear to be properly managing the hay crop in the waste application fields. This letter is to highlight some concerns and provide some general guidance for the animal facilities regarding the management of the storage pond/lagoon and waste application fields. For more specific/detailed information, please contact your technical specialist or your local agricultural extension service. Be advised that should a farm be found violating its farm plan and/or have an unpermitted discharge, besides facing civil penalties, the facility could be required to apply for an individual permit. Currently, most farms are operating under a general - - permit. Waste applications Just as you manage the animals at your facility, proper management of the waste (lagoon/storage pond level) is important. The waste must be pumped from the ponds at the correct time and provide for maximum utilization of the nutrients by the crop. Remember, waste application rates in your farm plan are based on agronomic principles, and assumes the waste will be applied when the nutrients are required (e.g., applying waste to corn at tasseling or bermuda grass in November is of little use for the uptake of nitrogen). Also, the established application rate assumes that the previous crop has been removed from the field. 919 NORTH MAIN STREET, MOORESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA 26115 - PHONE 704-663-1609 FA% 704-663-6040 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY /AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50% RECYCLED/1 O% POST -CONSUMER PAPER Page 2 Grass and small grain crops grown for hay should be harvested in a timely manner. To maximize nutrient uptake, as indicated in the waste utilization plan, and for highest quality, the crop should be harvested at early boot stage (generally every 4 to 5 weeks). Small grain, for silage can be harvested in the soft dough stage when direct cut. Contact your agricultural extension agent or technical specialist for proper guidance. General Recommendations for Nitrogen M Application for Common mps: • Small Grains: One-third (1/3) N at planting and remainder in late February or early March. • Corn/Sorghum: For facilities that pump and haul, N should be applied prior to planting. For those facilities that irrigate, a split application with half at planting and the remainder when the corn is 18 inches high. • . Fescue/Orchardgrass: Apply one-half (1/2) of the N in mid -February to March and one- half (1/2) in mid -August to September. • Bermuda grass: Establishing: 30 to 40 lbs N/ac at planting and 30 to 60 lbs N/ac when runners appear (6 -8 wk. after planting). Maintaining: 50 to 60 lbs N/ac in April and the remainder of the recommended amount in equal increments in June and July or after each cutting. Finally, there have been instances where the amount of waste pumped (as shown in the waste application records) from the lagoon/storage pond does not appear to agree with the amount of waste produced by the animals. One would expect on an annual basis that the amount pumped would be approximately equal to the amount being produced. For example, if a dairy is generating 453,000 gal/yr in waste, then approximately 453,000 gallons of waste should be accounted for in the waste application records over a year. However, there may be some difference due to how low the storage pond was pumped, the number of cows being held in the facility, or the amount of rainfall. Soil analysis (FREE) Fifteen to twenty (15 to 20) soil samples per field (20 acres or less) is desirable. The samples should be thoroughly mixed and sent in as one sample. Each sample should be pulled 4 inches deep for pastures and no -till systems and 8 inches deep for conventional tillage systems. Taking samples during the fall is advisable. The state lab is not as busy at that time and can provide a more timely turn around with the results. This is also a good time to apply lime if recommended by the soil test. When liming is necessary, it is important that it be applied as suggested. Maintaining proper soil pH is as important (if not more so) than fertilizing to maximize crop production. Page 3 Waste samples/analysis ($4/sample) The state Iab now has the capability to conduct analyses and provide the results within two working days via the internet. Through the US Postal service allow seven days. Take samples in a timely manner such that waste application rates can be based on the most recent sample results. Six to eight (6 to 8) samples should be taken around the edge of the lagoon/storage pond, approximately 6 feet from the edge and 12 inches below the surface. These can be mixed to make one sample. The sample should be refrigerated if it is not going to be shipped the same day. Always mail waste samples in plastic containers. For farmers who do not have to agitate the lagoon/storage pond prior to application, it is strongly suggested that waste samples be taken prior to waste application. This will prevent the producer from having to go back and complete the waste application record at a later date. For farmers who apply waste to hay fields and pastures, it is strongly suggested that waste samples be taken quarterly if the waste is applied anytime during the growing season. If you have questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Johnson or me at (704) 663-1699. Sincerely, r 1 D. Rex Gleason, P. E.

Monroe, NC 28110 Subject: Certification/Notice of Violations Hog Hill Swine, Facility #: 90-40 Union County, NC Dear Mr. McLester: 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. P.O.

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.

The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733 (Session Law 2003-28). In accordance with your application received on April 29, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Tommy McLester, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS900040 which expires October 1, 2004. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Hog Hill Swine Farm, located in Union County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 300 Farrow to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows 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.

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 strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 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, 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. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 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. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. • SOIL SURVEY OF UNION COUNTY, NORT- r.--4" NP SOILS CHANNMY Ss LT •.'�-�_.�_-_/ "fE .�• �il J .I� �1���' '1}' •�..--_�J 1 l r I', �' siy - r.n �� y �•-� E\�-t � I.I//f,�111ano�t)sjiBJIQ os9 / Y '{tf'1l Y _ _� !, yl 1+�� \j I , K') �rr1S n,uufi•14 r ` • [, i .. i sS y ✓-`�-�/ , •I` 1 -'�•. ..., ,.I 2 /�� \ �.' � �_°sy- I • 1 � i •..1 -i :�11 i 1 7�1 I j) .n r� 1. �� _ •f ''�\ I � ��� /� T I � •_f�/ � _ '1, � ''f}r�lc�' 1/ /:( //p � ` 1' I r 5 �� � 1 \� � (-�S4 :-/ r j ��� ` J'7 ) r � . •i � J�) ` \ S I � Gr '`'.

The nsistent stands are obtained from g rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagras . If drilling is not poss' e, the seeds may be broadcast on short Bermuda sod followed by a ligh ivation wit disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds she .5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be pp the Bermuda prior to August 31.

A harves ' equired prior to heading or April 7, ch ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the tential for shading bermuda reducing its yields. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with_ cereal rye must be reduced in accordance with NRCS Technical Standard #590. Annual Ryegrass yAnnual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the Bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with annual ryegrass must be reduced in accordance with MRCS Technical Standard #590. • 633-46 Rev. July 199 i Table 188.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of wastewater by irrigation. Your facility is designed for 0 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every ?69 days. In no instance should the Volume of waste being stored in your structure exceed 18" from low point in top of dam. Call the local Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly Soil Conservation Service) or Soil and Water Conservation District ogee after ybu receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount per acre to apply and the proper application rate prior to applying the waste APPLICATION BY IRRIGATION Field Soil Crop Application Application No Type Rate(In/Hr) Amount(In:) 3h THIS TABLE IS NOT NEEDED IF WASTE IS NOT BEING APPLIED BY IRRIGATION, HOWEVER A SIMILAR TABLE WILL BE NEEDED FOR DRY LITTER OR SLURRY. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses Nitrogen. .Table 2s ACRES WITH AGREEMENT OR LONG TERM LEASE (Agreement with adjacent landowner should be attached) (Required only if operator does not own adequate land [see Required Specification 2]) Tract Flds.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica- tion 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 laird to ptopetly apply the waste. If the producer does not awn adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity, allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an updated Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation.... such as increased animal numbers, method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization. 3. Aiiiimai 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 of other nutrients, 4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land 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 Strips]. 5. Odors can be, reduced by injecting waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather & Climate in North Carolina" in NRGS Field Office Technical Reference File - ENVIRONMENT 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 ... to control odor and 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. 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 to crops more than 30 days prior to planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. 11. A* new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall eomply with the fbllowing: Waste application cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary; a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch. For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. Page 1 RFLDATA 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 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 run- off or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a 'closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent break- downs, 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 human consumption it should only be applied preplant with no fin then 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels 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 is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for 5 years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be kept for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. Page 2 emacpin.wpd EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN In case of overflow and/or danger of breaching of the lagoon embankment, the operator/owner should enact the following steps immediately: (1) Begin land application of the wastes immediately. Continue application until the liquid level in the lagoon is below the breach or spill level. (2) Contact the contractor of your choice to immediately begin repairs to control overflow. Permanent repairs may need to be enacted at a later date. Remember; It is your responsibility to prevent discharge. If one contractor is not available, you should continue to contact others until you receive an immediate response. (3) Contact the Division Of Environmental Management to report the spill. The regional number is 1-704-663-1699. If after hours or no answer,call D.E. M. in Raleigh at 1-919-733-3358. Give the name of the facility, the location, and the D.E.M. registration number. The registration number for this farm is (4) Contact the Technical Specialist who approved the lagoon for assistance in the repair of the facility. Your Technical Specialist is /-n� Z_ His/her phone number is If they are not available ask to be assigned someone with lagoon authority for immediate assistance. (5) If the breach of the dam or a sudden additional breach could cause danger downstream(i.e.- roads, houses, playgrounds,etc) call 911 or your local SherhTs Department @ 2B3 -- _39Y 1 ar 2 B_.3- � (6) After spill has been eliminated or controlled asses extent of spill and damage to dam. (7) Contact as many downstream neighbors as possible to inform them of spill and pollutants to stream. (8) Maintain this plan on site at all times with all phone numbers filled in. Update phone numbers annually to ensure accuracy. THIS NOTICE IS TO BE POSTED ON SITE AND EASILY ACCESSIBLE AT ALL TEWES. Operation and Maintenance Plan This facility is to be maintained in a safe and healthy condition at all times, in compliance with all local, state and federal laws. Impoundment A protective cover of vegetation will be established -and maintained on all areas disturbed during construction, (embanlanents, berms, diversions etc.). Lagoon areas must be mowed and kept accessible to visual inspection. Keep all lagoon areas free of woody vegetation, especially the top of dam, pool edges and back slope of embankments. Perform a regular inspection and repair as necessary any erosion, rodent burrows, seepage or other threats to the integrity of the impoundment. Waste Handling Equipment Perform regular inspection and repair as necessary all waste handling equipment, (pumps, meters, pipes and electrical components etc.) to avoid leaks, overflow or other spillage of effluent. Manage to avoid excessive waste volume situations due to unexpected failure of equipment. Liquid level Establish visible markers to delineate top and bottom pumping limits. Maintain maximum liquid level six inches below emergency spillway. Monitor sludge accumulation annually and remove as necessary to keep at least four feet of liquid capacity available. Maintain separate disposal areas for sludge and apply at agronomic rates with no runoff. Sample sludge or use book values for N in calculating disposal rates. Permits Maintain emergency action plan in a prominent location at the facility. Keep current and available all permits, licenses, etc. as required by the State of North Carolina.

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 strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic ,relds 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 Baste. Do not apply more nitrog- than the crop can utilize. 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. VGrith special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 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. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disldng will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. 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 waste samples to the lab for analysis. This waste utilization plan, if carved out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling rye into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding rate for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the bern uda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre of Plant Available N (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If rye growth is harvested on time and does not significantly shade the bermuda, PAN rates for the subsequent Bermuda crop are based on realistic yields of bermuda. A harvest is required prior to heading or April 7, which ever comes first. This is necessary to minimize the potential for shading bermuda and reducing its yields. The PAN rate for grazed systems with bermuda overseeded with cereal rye must be reduced in accordance with NRCS Technical Standard #590. Annual Regrass Annual ryegrass should be planted by October 15 to provide the best opportunity to get winter growth. The most consistent stands are obtained from drilling ryegrass into short (less than 3 inches tall) bermudagrass sod. If drilling is not possible, the seeds may be broadcast on short bermuda sod followed by a light cultivation with a disc or tillage implement. The seeding race for broadcast planting of seeds should be 1.5 times the rate for drilled seeds. The last application of animal waste is to be applied to the Bermuda prior to August 31. An application of 50 lbs/acre. of (PAN) may be applied between September 15 and October 30. An additional 50 lbs/acre of PAN may be applied in February -March. If additional PAN is applied to the ryegrass in April -May, the PAN rate for the bermuda must be reduced by a corresponding amount. This is necessary because ryegrass growth during April -May will reduce bermuda yields and shorten the time bermuda can fully utilize the N. A harvest is required by heading or April 7, which ever comes first to prevent shading of emerging bermuda during April -May period. To favor the production of the bermuda, additional harvests of ryegrass will be required when the ryegrass canopy reaches 12 to 15 inches height. The PAN rate for grazed systems with Bermuda overseeded with annual ryegrass must be reduced in accordance with MRCS Technical Standard #590. � c3�'1 � ❑ � C � T 'Its i,?3 Nr4,lH"7 CII-) '),1Nfi00 N01Nn J0 A3An ms iics , .

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff drift, manmade conveyances, direct applica Lion 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 to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not oven adequate land to properly dispose of waste, helshe shall provide a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within reasonable proximity, allowing use of their land for waste application. The owner of the animal facility is responsible for securing an updated Waste Utilization PIan when there is a change in the operation.... such as increased animal numbers, method of waste application, or change in available land for waste utilization. 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 Ievel of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application of other nutrients. 4. Animal waste may be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year, Waste may be applied to land 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 Strips]. S, Odors can be reduced by injecting waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conset'vation tilled crops or gasgiaad, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather & Climate in North Carolina" in NRCS Field Office Technical reference File - ENVIRONMENT for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur ofl'site or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding slioiild owar... to emttol bdor and 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 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 to crops more than 30 days prior to planting, or to forages more than 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. I I. Any new swine facility tiled on or after October 1, I995 shall comply with the following: Waste application cannot occur within 50 feet from a residential property boundary; a perennial stream, river, canal or irrigation ditch. For other animal operations or swine facilities sited before October 1, 1995 - waste application cannot occur within 25 feet of perennial waters [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips]. NOTE: Local ordinances may preempt this. I2. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. Page 1 RFLDATA 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the Iandowner. 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 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 run- off or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste ftom 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. 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. 19. Waste Handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent break- downs, 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 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 animal waste lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain liquid levels 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 is applied. Nitrogen shall be the plant food element that determines application rates. Soil zinc and copper levels shall be monitored and alternative crop sites used when these elements approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be maintained for 5 years. Poultry, dry waste application records shall be kept for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be kept for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. Page 2 emacpin.wpd EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN in case of overflow and/or danger of breaching of the lagoon embankment, the operator/owner should enact the following steps immediately: (1) Begin land application ofthe wastes immediately. Continue application until the liquid level in the lagoon is below the breach or spill level. (2) Contact the contractor of your choice to immediately begin repairs to control overflow. Permanent repairs may need to be enacted at a later date. Remember; It is your responsibility to prevent discharge. If one contractor is not available, you should continue to contact others until you receive an immediate response. (3) Contact the Division Of Environmental Management to report the spill. The regional number is 1-70-663-1699. If after hours or no answer,call D.E. M. in Raleigh at 1-919-733-335S. Give the name of the facility, the location, and the D.E.M. registration number. The registration number for this farm is 9� (4) Contact the Technical Specialist who approved the lagoon for assistance in the repair of the facility. Your Technical Specialist is j ,/'�i/Jf�� q His/her phone number is If they are not available ask to be assigned someone with lagoon authority for immediate assistance. (5) If the breach of the dam or a sudden additional breach could cause danger dovmstream(i.e.- roads, housees,�playgroDunds,etc) call 911 or your local Sheriff's Department (6) After spill has been eliminated or controlled asses extent of spill and damage to dam. (7 Contact as many downstream neighbors as possible to inform them of spill and pollutants to stream. (8) Maintain this plan on site at all times with all phone numbers filled in. Update phone numbers annually to ensure accuracy. THIS NOTICE IS TO BE POSTED ON SITE AND EASILY ACCESSIBLE AT ALL TIMES. Operation and Maintenance Plan This facility is to be maintained in a safe and healthy condition at all times, in compliance with all local, stag and federal laws. u8�_i1 wITI# A protective cover of vegetation will be established and maintained on all areas disturbed during cmistruction, (embankments, berms, diversions etc.). Lagoon areas must be mowed and kept accessible to visual inspection. Keep all lagoon areas free of woody vegetation, especially the top of dam, pool edges and back slope of embankments. Perform a regular inspection and repair as necessary any erosion, rodent burrows, seepage or other threats to the tegrity of the impoundment. Waste Handling Equipment in Perform regular inspection and repair as necessary all waste handling equipment, (purnps, meter, pipes and electrical components etc.) to avoid leaks, overtiow or other spillage of effluent. Manage to avoid excessive waste volume situations due to unexpected failure of equipment. Liquid level Establish visible markers to delineate top and bottom, pumping limits. Maintain maximum liquid level six inches below emergency spillway. Monitor sludge accumulation annually and remove as necessary to keep at least four feet of liquid capacity available. Maintain separate disposal areas for sludge and apply at agronomic rates with no runoff Sample sludge or use book values for N in calculating disposal rates. Permits Maintain emergency action plan in a prominent location at the facility_ Keep curr,nt and available all permits, licenses, etc. as required by the State of North Carolina. rr Swine Farm Waste Management Odor Control Checklist . s+lurre Came I 11i11Ps to Nfillitnite (ldur' — site sllerire Practices Parinatc:lel Swine production Vegetative or wooded buffers; Recommended best management practices; Good judgment and common sense Ai6mal body surfacei 0 Dirty manilje•covered auinyals Cl Dry Moors Flucor sill t'aCCS 0 Wet m:uiure-coverer) floors Slnttcd floors; ,�ii Ll Watcrers Ioc-died aver Slotted floors; Cl Peepers at high end ofsolid floors; (11 Scrape nianure buildup from floors; Underfloor ventilation for drying t.f:lnurc C1111ccliun pit trine; t hequeltt nuuture removal by flash, pit mcharl;e, • Pa+'tial lllicrobial decomposition or scrape; Underlloor vemilation VCr)til.tiinl cXlralut f';ins • Vnlalilc bases; _ Pain maiulenance; Dust 1_f ficicnl air movelncnl { IndUur sill EICCI • ,MIS1 C7 Waslll own hct+vevil groups of animals; Feel] additives; 0 1 ceder covers; r l Feed delivery downspout exicnders Io rcuder covers 1 ludi tail{:5 Agiralion of tecycled lagoon C7 1,111sh la+lk covers; liquid %vhile. tanks are filling Cl I?xlend fill lines to near ix)Iloin oria+rks with anti -siphon vents FIIISIl alleys Agitalion during wastewalcr Underfloor flush with underfloor ventilation conveyance I'll lccll.11ge pilillis 0 Agiiadon of recycled Liguon Cl FACIld IechargL!
