This plan provides an estimate of the number of acres of cropland needed to use the nutrients being produced. The plan requires consideration of the realistic yields of the crops to be grown, their nutrient requirements, and proper timing of applications to maximize nutrient uptake. This table provides an estimate of the amount of nitrogen required by the crop being grown and an estimate of the nitrogen amount being supplied by manure or other by-products, commercial fertilizer and residual from previous crops. An estimate of the quantity of solid and liquid waste that will be applied on each field in order to supply the indicated quantity of nitrogen from each source is also included A balance of the total manure produced and the total manure applied is included i the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste _ application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Pape ] 7. Liquid waste shall be applied -at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public --- right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Page 2 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 breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. — - - - Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Page 3 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

N1IMRFRS DWQ EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS ' 7�i�z� ��`�y SWCD NRCS This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing; or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take. 1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below. A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are: a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam. b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate. 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 field -actions include: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C.

The facility was registered as a 1,000 head farrow to feeder pig operation (522,000 Lb SSLW) prior to permit Issuance for the current operation in 2005. At the time the current permit application was submitted, the permitting office indicated that rather than Mr. Griffin having to include treatment and land application areas for greater than the 7,000 head, he could at a later date request a new permit to incorporate additional remaining SSLW. Mr. Griffin now requests issuance of a revised permit to include 12,000 head Wean to Feeder (360,000 Lb SSLW), still well under the original 522,000 Lb. An existing lagoon will be desludged and expanded and constructed to current design standards for the new 5,000 head addition. An application is included, along with all components of a CAWMP except items pertaining to the Swine Farm Siting Act, since this is an existing facility.

H _9_A_Ro':'�% ` SEAL 16415 0 • SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a heavy rain factor. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The heavy rain factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to maintain the liquid level between these markers. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be charged to 1/2 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during_ start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 44.70 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.00 . This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 98303 cubic feet or 735306 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation and recommended maximum application rate is shown in the waste utilization plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop. B. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the joints. 9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris. 10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage. 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times. 12, In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address — - animal operations. These rules became effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible in order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors when irrigating on land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer. SHEET 1 OF 3 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS FOUNDATION PREPARATION: The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over B inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "aheepsfoot" or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be in accord- ance with the specified requirements for compaction and moisture. For the embankment, use the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 16 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 sore -feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Low. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during Construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SF 1.8 ft. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL)ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. ATYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE L IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPOI When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be aver - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a NRCS approved material (is- CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF 3 Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material unless otherwise specified. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other then the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheapsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILL: DRAINS When specified, the contractor shall construct an observation trench along the entire length of the embankment to a minimum of five feet in depth. The trench shall have a bottom width adequate to accamodate the equipment used for excavation, backfill, and compaction operations SHEET 3 OF 3 and the side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. When the drains are encountered, the tile shall be removed to a minimum of 15 feet beyond the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular to the embankment. If a file line ebsts above the embankment it shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location. BackfiBing and compaction in the trench shall be in accordance with the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements. BOTTOM AND EDGES The bottom of all lagoons shall be approbmataly level. The side slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller to decrease the permeability of the finished bottom and aide slopes. QUALITY ASSURANCE During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified Inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during construction as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required as deemed necessary by the inspector andlor designer. During construction of a clay liner, a qualified construction inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during con- struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (Revised September 1993). In the absence of supervision of construction by a qualified inspector, the liner must be tested to verify a ma dmum hydraulic conductivity of 0.000001.25 cm/sec. When testing is required, the owner will be responsible for fumish- ing test results and certification that the construction meets the design requirements. Any tests and certification should be performed by a certified laboratory.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from _ the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). Preview Database Version 3.I Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Page 1 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. S. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would i nhi bit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public - - right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Page 2 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 breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. - - --- Preview Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 5/17/2007 Specification Pap-e 3 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil. shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

PHOW N 1MRRRS DWQ EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Qk--7�{�1- SWCD MRCS This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operati on are leafing, overflowing, or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take. 1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below. A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are: a. Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam. b. Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate. 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 field -actions include: a. Immediately stop waste application. b. Create a temporary diversion to contain waste. c. Incorporate waste to reduce runoff. d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff. e. Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred. C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include: a. Stop recycle pump. b. Stop irrigation pump. c. Close valves to eliminate further discharge. d. Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps. D. Leakage from flush systems, houses, solid separators -action include: December 18, 1996 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 a. Dig a small sump or ditch away from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back to the lagoon. b. if holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and lagoon bottom as soon as possible. 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. a Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f£ Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g.

May 17, 2007 North Carolina Division of Water Quality Water Quality Section Non -Discharge Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 To whom it may concern: Mr. Otis Griffin, Griffin Swine Farm, owns and operates swine facilities in Greene County, NCDENR COC No. AWS400094 for 7,000 head Wean to Feeder operation. The facility was registered as a 1,000 head farrow to feeder pig operation (522,000 Lb SSLW) prior to permit issuance for the current operation in 2005. At the time the current permit application was submitted, the permitting office indicated that rather than Mr. Griffin having to include treatment and land application areas for greater than the 7,000 head, he could at a later date request a new permit to incorporate additional remaining SSLW. Mr. Griffin now requests issuance of a revised permit to include 12,000 head Wean to Feeder (360,000 Lb SSLW), still well under the original 522,000 Lb. An existing lagoon will be desludged and expanded and constructed to current design standards for the new 5,000 head addition. An application is included, along with all components of a CAWMP except items pertaining to the Swine Farm Siting Act, since this is an existing facility. Thank you for your consideration, and if you have any questions regarding the technical or design aspects of the proposed updated facilities, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, R.

SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN -------------------------- This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a heavy rain factor. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The heavy rain factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to maintain the liquid level between these markers. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations For operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be _ charged to 112 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 44,70 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump- aut when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.00-This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 98303 cubic feet or 735306 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation and recommended maximum application rate is shown in the waste utilization plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. B. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop. B. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the joints. 9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris. 10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage. 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times. 12. In December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address - - - animal operations. These rules became effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible in order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors when irrigating on land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer. SHEET 1 OF 3 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS FOUNDATION PREPARATION: The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free, of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "sheepatoof' or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be In accord- ance with the specified requirements for compaction and moisture. For the embankment, use the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SF 1.8 ft. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL)ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION. ATYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE L IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPOI When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a MRCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SHEET 2 OF 3 Sail liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand It will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material unless otherwise specified. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the of dent construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattem helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most day soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construe - ton according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded, Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS When specified, the contractor shall construct an observation trench along the entire length of the embankment to a minimum of five feet in depth, The trench shall have a bottom width adequate to accomodate the equipment used for excavation, backfill, and compaction operations SHEET 3 OF 3 and the side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. When the drains are encountered, the tile shall be removed to a minimum of IS feet beyond the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular to the embankment. If a die line exists above the embankment It shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location. Backfilting and compaction in the trench shall be in accordance with the EXCAVATION . AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements. BOTTOM AND EDGES The bottom of all lagoons shall be approximately level. The side slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller to decrease the permeability of the finished bottom and side slopes, QUALITY ASSURANCE During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified Inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during construction as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required as deemed necessary by the inspector and/or designer. During construction of a clay liner, a qualified construction inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during con- struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (Revised September 1993). In the absence of supervision of construction by a qualified inspector, the liner must be tested to verify a maximum hydraulic conductivity of 0.000001.25 cm/sec. When testing is required, the owner will be responsible for fumish- Ing test results and certification that the construction meets the design requirements. Any tests and certification should be performed by a certified laboratory. ;EL GEN i Existing Borrow Pit do Lagoons Proposed New Lagoon 41.7 Existing Elevation e ll,-M M Benchmark Elevation PATH —, — — — BUFFER OR SETBACK Min, 12' Wide Be NP 25� M '� u R F DE EXcavatd ;a vote Exc aced N'\0 NCp 0 IM SWAM CONSULTING SERVICES, INC. 150 CABIN CREEK LN.

RESIDENTS FOR Greene County Agronomist A -- 3, $ ATTENTION: This report was flagged with a "Cu and/or "r to alert you that copper and/or zinc have accumulated in the soil and are approaching a level that could be detrimental to crop production. The C and Z symbols are printed on your report for soil test index levels of 2000 or more; for peanuts with zinc, the level is 300. This note is designed to be a "trigger" that allows enough time to either reduce the rate of application or find another field for application of biosolids and/or waste water. The CTL (critical toxic level) for Cu 6 Zn has been set at 3000 index; for peanuts with zinc, the level is 500. These levels are used by DENR as a benchmark to determine when application of waste products should be stopped. The CTL for copper and zinc was set to prevent levels from accumulating to the point where they become toxic to crops grown on a field. David H.

This review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.10D, is one of two routine site visits scheduled for all subject animal operations in 2006. The Division of Water Quality will conduct a separate compliance inspection. During the operation review, the following items were noted: • Failure to secure sludge removal plan from technical specialist that outlines the removal of sludge and land application procedures. Sludge is stock piled along perimeter of woods line. • Failure to secure representative sludge analysis and liquid waste analysis prior to sludge removal (spring 2005). It was for these reasons that your operation was referred to the Division of Water Quality for further investigation' and possible enforcement action. G.S. 143-215.10E requires staff from the Division of Soil and Water Conservation to notify the Division of Water Quality and the owner/operator of these observed violations. A copy of the operation review is enclosed for your information, Site findings and recommended corrective actions as discussed are noted in the comment sections. Please remember that in order for your facility to remain in compliance with environmental regulations, animal waste cannot be discharged into waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systems must be properly maintained and operated under the responsible charge of a certified operator. 943 Washington Square Mall, Washington, North Carolina 27889 Telephone 252-946-6481 FAX 252-975.3716 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Mr. Otis Griffin October 02, 2006 Page 2 On behalf of the Division of Soil and Water Conservation, I appreciate your cooperation with this operation review.

Duct precharge water 6" deep: a > Total Available temporary storage: 16,600 Cu. Ft. Based on the above estimates, sufficient storage is available In the existing building pits to store generated waste and excess water use for approximately 2 cycles If required. Based on current progress of lagoon Improvements, one cycle should be more than adequate to begin discharging wastewater. Therefore, we Conclude that NCDENR Division of Water quality should approve your request to populate the existing bullding prior to certification of the lagoon. Sincerely, R. Gregory Swain, P.E.

December 6, 2006 NC Division of Water Quality Washington Regional Office 943 Washington Square Mall Washington, NC 27889 Attention: Ms. Marlene Sadler Re: Griffin Swine Farm (Certificate of Coverage No. AWS400094) Dear Ms. Sadler. At the request of Michael Griffin, I have visited the above referenced site to inspect the deposited excavated material from the improved lagoons. The material in question, as you have seen, lies between the edge of a cropped field and a wooded area, with no nearby drainage features or surface waters. I estimated the material volume as approximately 600 feet long x 14 feet wide x 2.5' high on average, or approximately 800 cubic yards. The material that was placed in this area is a mixture of remaining sludge solids and excavated clay/sandy clay material after all semisolid and liquid material that could be handled was stored in one end of the new lagoon that had been completed (see top picture attached). Mr. Griffin excavated trenches through the material cross-section in 8 places, and I estimate from my observations that no more than 25% of the total material is sludge or sludge solids, and there appears to be no waste material of liquid or slurry consistency that was deposited. Further, as can be seen in the 2 lower pictures attached, which were representative of the trenches throughout, there were no areas found with sludge material within 12 inches of the surface, and the soil excavated with this material is mostly clay or sandy clay material. Therefore, there is little potential for environmental risk due to movement of nutrients to surface or groundwater. Sincerely, R. Gregory Swain, P.E. President LJ �� DEC - 8 2006 �gASWNGIGN REGIONA,.

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 January 18, 2005 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Otis Griffin, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from Griffin Swine Farm, located in Greene County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 7,000 Wean 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 Ray careful attention to the record keeninf? and monitoring conditions in this permit. If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site -specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.

The facility is registered as, and at capacity operated as, a 1,000 head farrow to feeder pig operation (522,000 Lb SSLW). Local NRCS office was unable to locate design documents for a portion of the waste treatment/storage facilities, but one design for expansion from 1974 is included for reference, accounting for 216,880 Lb SSLW. The farm currently operates under the threshold which requires state permitting and now desires to upgrade existing lagoons and buildings to accommodate 7,000 pigs wean -feeder (210,000 Lb SSLW). All production facilities and lagoon structures are owned by Mr. Griffin, and proposed land application fields have a signed ten year lease agreement attached to the developed Nutrient Management Plan. Mr. Griffin requests issuance of a General Permit based on existing facilities and lagoons, with much lower animal density than previously operated. Production facilities may be either renovated or new facilities constructed in the same area. An application is included, along with all components of a CAWMP except items pertaining to the Swine Farm Siting Act, since this is an existing facility. Thank you for your consideration, and if you have any questions regarding the technical or design aspects of the proposed updated facilities, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, R.

In order to meet this directive, a representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at least one year. The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as WSW, medium or low according to its potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structures) was ranked as follows: Structure Number Surface &ea(Acres) Rankin 1 0.32 Medium 2 0.12 Medium This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit. Changes in these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your . waste structure(s) in the future. Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider additional requirements for future management of these structures which utay include requiring proper closure of inactive lagoons and storage panda according to currant or alternative standards. 9Q ` a&Waaton So a v M&LL WasLington.

Staff of the Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of 0 inactive structures that have been determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data collected by the Department. All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or structure must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is sn excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, strtictum operation and maintenance, and other related animal waste management standards and/or requirements. , Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of surface water or groundwater quality standards. Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process.

S �'; i '; SHEET 1 OF 3 SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS FOUNDATION PREPARATION: The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond. EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT: The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall be free of material such as sod, roots, frozen soil, stones over 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill shall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer will be compacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading equipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method. Compaction equipment shall travel in a direction parallel to the main axis of the fill. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller. Compaction of the fill material shall be in accord- ance with the specified requirements for compaction and moisture. For the embankment, use the more impervious materials from the required excavations. Construction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation from the constructed height to the downstream toe of the dike. Precautions shall be taken during construction to prevent excessive erosion and sedimentation. LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE :,<<X-1 ft. NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL) ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS ENCOUNTERED DURING CONST RUC i 1ON. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER IS INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT. When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be over - excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured perpendicular to the finish grade. The foundation shall be backfilled as specified to grade with a NRCS approved material (ie - CL,SC,CH). REFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL [Kai &1'111014 -1vI& ►1L4 SHEET 2 OF 3 Soil liner material shall come from an approved borrow area. The minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture content which relates to that moisture content when the soil is kneaded in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement. The maximum water content relates to the soil material being too wet for efficient use of hauling equipment and proper compaction. Proper compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dry Unit Weight of the liner material unless otherwise specified. When smooth or hard, the previous lift shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement of the next lift. The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme- ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner. The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab- lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment. The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks) or using flexible outlets on waste pipes. Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant. When these are specified, additional construction specifications are included with this Construction Specification. CUTOFF TRENCH: A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation materials. VEGETATION: All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc- tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should be placed on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch shall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS When specified, the contractor shall construct an observation trench along the entire length of the embankment to a minimum of five feet in depth. The trench shall have a bottom width adequate to accomodate the equipment used for excavation, backfill, and compaction operations SHEET 3 OF 3 and the side slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter. When the drains are encountered, the the shall be removed to a minimum of 15 feet beyond the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular to the embankment. If a tile line exists above the embankment it shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location. Backfilling and compaction In the trench shall be in accordance with the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements. BOTTOM AND EDGES The bottom of all lagoons shall be approximately level. The side slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact with a "sheepsfoot" or tamping roller to decrease the permeability of the pnished bottom and side slopes. QUALITY ASSURANCE During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during construction as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required as deemed necessary by the inspector and/or designer. During construction of a clay liner, a qualified construction inspector as designated by the designer must be on site during con- struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance with NRCS South National Technical Center (SNTC) Technical Note 716 (Revised September 1993). In the absence of supervision of construction by a qualified inspector, the liner must be tested to verify a maximum hydraulic conductivity of 0.000001.25 cm/sec. When testing is required, the owner will be responsible for furnish- ing test results and certification that the construction meets the design requirements. Any tests and certification should be performed by a certified laboratory. SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN ------------------------------ This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) and 180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 yr - 24 hr storm for the location and a heavy rain factor. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfall will vary from year to year. The heavy rain factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to maintain the liquid level between these markers. Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or Teaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out; 1. Before wastes are introduced, the waste treatment lagoon shall be charged to 1/2 its treatment volume to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for flushing after initial filling. 7. The attached waste utilization plan shail be foilowed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 39.62 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 37.20 , This temporary storage less 25 yr and heavy rain contains 149751 cubic feet or 1120139 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4, The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation and recommended maximum application rate is shown in the waste utilization plan. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. Repair areas of the embankment that settle below the design settled height or areas where cracking, sloughing, or "jug" holes develop. S. Repair waste inlet pipes that develop cracks or separate at the joints. 9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged debris. 10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets when not included as part of the design temporary storage. 11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times. 12. in December 1992, the Environmental Management Commission (EMC;- in North Carolina revised water quality regulations that address animal operations. These rules became effective on February 1, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as flush water and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and as far from the inlet discharge pipes as possible in order to provide a cleaner effluent for flushing and to reduce odors when irrigating on land. When these pipes are placed through the embankment, they should be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with clayey material or other material as approved by an engineer.

The upper trame is constructed of mainly 3 x 5 inch tubing. The use pf steel tubing gives ail Cadman Travellers higher torsion strength than typical I-beam constructions. TURNTABLE All Cadman Travellers are equipped with ball -bearing turntables. With multiple locking positions and a centrally located lock pin, positioning of the Traveller is made simple and easy. HEAVY-DUTY DRUM The one-piece drum core is made from 3116' steel plate for continuous support. Cadman oversizes its core diameter to prevent stress on the hose, promoting longer life and easier wrapping of the hose. With reinforcing ribs and welded construction, the Cadman drum is, by far, the strongest in the industry. LONG-LASTING DRUM BEARINGS The drum bearings are constructed of high strength lubricated nylon. Virtually maintenance - free, these bearings will provide years of trouble -free service. The real advantage, however, is the ability to maintain oversized plumbing on the inlet side of the drum, giving you maximum efficiency. Competitors usually bottleneck the inlet so they can keep the cost of the ball bearing they use down. HIGH QUALITY HOSE Cadman Travellers use only the best quality hose available. Our polyethylene hose is manufactured to ASTM and CSA standards for rough fiefd use and long life. LARGE PLUMBING Large 4' diameter plumbing is used on the reel to reduce pressure loss. Each elbow uses 2 pounds per square inch. The Caeman Traveiler has far fewer elbows than useo by others. We have no bottlenecks of smaller pipes and hoses. Our Traveller is not a pipetitter's nlghtmarel It is designed to utillze p;essure to its fullest advantage in order to operate the reel easily and maintain an e;,crgy- efficlent irrigation system. POSITIVE TRACTION CHAIN DRIVE All Cadman Travellers are driven by a single No. 80 chain, running aver the large diameter of the drum on traction pins. This gives Cadman the advantage of maximum torque amplification vs. smaller laser -cut sprockets used by others. By putting less straln on the drive system, less power is needed to rotate the drum, therefore giving you maximum efficiency. HEAVY-DUTY CRANK DOWN STABILIZERS As standard equipment, the Cadman 3000, 3250 and 3500 come with crank down stabilizer legs. The easy -to -use telescopic jacks are built to Cadman's specifications for rigid, trouble -free operation. As an option, hydraulic stabillzers can be installed. ENGINE DRIVE The Cadman engine drive system loses "0" P.S.I. because it is self-contained and separate from the fluid irrigated, whereas pistons, bellows or turbines lose 5 to 20 PS;. This loss has to be overcome by a pump running harder. These other systems usually result in using less mainline or a smaller gun nozzle in order to keep the pump pressure within operating maximums. TRANSMISSION A wide speed range is achieved in Cadman's engine drive system by using a combination of drive and driven variable speed pulleys and a clutch reduction transmission. Simply turn the knob to adjust the drive pulley to the desired speed and engage the transmission lever. There is no need to change gears to achieve a specific speed. As well, an alternate PTO wind - In is incorporated into the transmission. Very clean and easy to operate? AUTO STOP When the gun cart reaches the reel, a simple device activates two safety switches. If one switch fails, the second takes over, ensuring maximum safety for you and the machine. HOSE BUILD-UP SAFETY If the hose guide malfunctions for .ny reason. a safety switch is activate., by the speed compensator to shut off the engine. This prevents the nose from miswrapping and crushing itseit. BRAKE A disc brake ensures that proper tension is applied to the drum when unwinding the hose. This prevents recoil when the tractor comes to a stop at the end of the puil. When fully applied. the Traveller can then be moved safely from field to field without concern of recoil. EASY -TO -READ SPEEDOMETER All Cadman Travellers are equipped with an easy -to -read speedometer, displaying the hose retrieval rate. ACCURATE HOSE INDEXING Cadman's hose guide system keeps the polyethylene hose in Its place accurately and efficiently. With its rugged design, maintenance is kept to a minimum. FEEDER HOSE A standard 4' x 25' hose is supplied to connect the Traveller to your mainline. As with everything else, Cadman uses the best quality high pressure hose and clamps. GUN AND CART An appropriate sized quality gun is standard. Cadman offers a choice of three different carts for the 3000, 3250 and 3500, For low crops or manure application, a 28' clearance cart is available. For medium height crops we have a 46" clearance cart and for high crops a 62' clearance cart is available. These rugged carts are made of steel tube construction. Based on three wheels (no skids), the carts have variable width adjustment to fit the plant rows. Riser extensions are also avaiiable as an option for orchard applications. OPTIONAL FAST HITCH TOOL BAR As an option, anv single axle Cadman Traveller can oe fittea with a pintle Hitch ano supplied with a fast hitch tool bar for our tractor. Making your work easier, a pin on the toolbar fits through the pintle hitch and lifts the tongue of the Traveller. By simply operating the tractor's 3-point hitch control, the Traveller can be moved from field to field without ever getting off the tractor.

HONDA ENGINE I I PULLEY SET DRIVE DISCONNECT CABLE DRIVEN CAM HlVHDLE HANDWHEEL SPEED CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENT HOSE SPEED COMPENSATION The Cadman MECHANICAL CAM DRIVE HOSE SPEED COMPENSATION SYSTEM has simplified the task of very accurately compensating the hose retrieve speed for the increase in drum diameter as hose is rewound onto the drum. Here's how it works. A sensor bar, riding against the hose as it winds onto the drum, operates a cam on the variable speed drive pulley by way of a cable. As the cam rotates, the pulley pitch is adjusted just enough to accurately compensate for changes in hose speed over the entire retrieve cycle. The result is an even application from beginning to end! s�'y y y'• �Ea� ���, n y1x'.:•N, � r. r :fit oti ^ �^ �f� a * v" r 3: i ''t - ,x a� �, �.:� r~ .�....t, - s � a �•1*� :s.__ .�..;r,l'^�,ur rn ._ri,_ :icJ�1i9`'�F.:�r;�:'.'gi �YY.E. n. �+'-1.w+���'%s�sr-� 1 .Pc -c. rvs.. tom',. ..Ys� a., ,t. �+i - L ]�. �#.;c 3�. ._.�.�ti. k' �,. .+m_...

These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application ofthe effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should be taken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding- pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greaterthan the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume ofaccumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity. vailable Wa, to Stora 7e Ca acity Source Name Swine Nursery Lagoon Liquid Design Storage Capacity (Days) Start Date 9/ 1 180 Plan Year Month Available Storage Capacity (Days) 1 1 62 l 2 54 l 3 37 1 4 115 1 5 84 1 6 126 1 7 180 1 8 149 1 9 180 1 10 169 1 Il 139 l 12 122 * Available Storage Capacity is calculated as of the end of each month. 554679 Database version 3.1 Date Printed: l0-?7-2004 Capacity Page I of 1 Korth Carolina Greene County This lease, Spray & Animal Waste Agreement, made and entered into this 13"' day of September, 2004. between Ctis Griffin and Anna Belle Morris.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal wasters to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 554679 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/271004 Specification Paee 1 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 daring application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. $. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 554679 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/27Y2004 5pecificaiion Page 2 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a Iand application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 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. 13. 1f animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 5 679 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/27/2004 Specification Pace 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrocren shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. 554&79 database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/27/2004 Specification Pake 4 GREENE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA ,00„ 35"30'00" EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN PfONF.

In order to meet this directive, a representative of DENR has recently evaluated the inactive lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) on your property. Inactive lagoons and storage ponds were defined by the Statute as structures which were previously used to store animal waste but have not received waste for at Ieast one year. The information collected on your property is contained in the attached field data sheets. Using this field data, staff ranked your inactive waste structures as high, medium or low according to its potential risk for polluting surface and/or groundwater. Your waste structure(s) was ranked as follows: Structure Number Surface Area (Acres,) Rankine; 1 0.32 Medium 2 0.12 Medium This ranking is based in part on the conditions existing on the day of the site visit. Changes in these conditions or the collection and evaluation of additional data may modify the ranking of your waste structure(s) in the future. Information on your facility along with over 1000 others contained in the inventory has been provided to the General Assembly. During this year's session, the General Assembly will consider additional requirements for future management of these structures which may include requiring proper closure of inactive lagoons and storage ponds according to current or alternative standards. 943 Washington square Mail, Washington, North Carolina 27889 Telephone (252) 946-6481 Fax (252) 946-9215 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50%a recycled110% post -consumer paper Rating of Potential Risk Inactive Waste Lagoons and Storage Ponds Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Regardless of their ranking, owners of all waste lagoons and storage ponds have certain management responsibilities. These include taking appropriate actions to eliminate current discharges, prevent future discharges and to insure the stability of their structures. Staff of the Division of Water Quality will be in contact with owners of all inactive structures that have been determined to pose a serious environmental risk, based on its ranking and/or additional field data collected by the Department. All liquids and waste removed from these structures must be land applied at a rate not to exceed the agronomic needs of the receiving crops. Any major modifications made to the dike walls or structure must be done in accordance with current standards and under the direction of a technical specialist designated for structural design. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District is an excellent source for information and guidance related to proper waste application practices, structure operation and maintenance, and other related animal waste management standards and/or requirements. Nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility and liability for any past or future discharges from your lagoon(s) and/or storage pond(s) or for any violations of surface water or groundwater quality standards. Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this process. If you have questions concerning your inactive structures, please contact the staff of either in the Division of Water Quality or the Division of Soil and Water Conservation in the Washington Regional Office at (252) 946-6481.

Greene County Dear Otis Griffin: This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an active animal waste management system per the terms of 15A NCAC 2H .0217. The information you provided us indicated that your operation's animal population does not exceed the number set forth by 15A NCAC 2H .0217, and therefore does not require registration fora certified animal waste management plan. Under 15A NCAC 2H .0217, your facility is deemed permitted if waste is properly managed and does not reach the surface waters of the state. Any system determined to have an adverse impact on water quality may be required to obtain a waste management plan or an individual permit. You are reminded that a discharge of wastes to the surface waters of the state will subject you to a civil penalty up to S10,000 per day. Should you decide to increase the number of animals housed at your facility beyond the threshold limits listed below, you will be required to obtain a certified animal waste management plan prior to stocking animals to that level. Threshold numbers of animals that require certified animal waste management plans are as follows: Swine 250 Confined Cattle 100 Horses 75 Sheep 1,000 Poultry with a liouid waste system 110.000 If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff at (919) 733-5083 ext 502. �'Q cc: ash nngton Water Quality ltegional•Office Greene Soil and Water Conservation District Facility File Sincerely, s , " 4A, � � "� ") A.
