Subject: Lagoon Closure Glen Blake Farm
Facility No. 48-21
Hyde County
Dear Mr. Croom,
W� .
E:)EHNR
The Washington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality has reviewed the facts
of the closure of the lagoon located on the Glen Blake farm on SR 1303 in Hyde County. Proper
lagoon closure is achieved when all requirements set forth in NRCS Technical Guide Standard
998 have been met. It is the responsibility of the Technical Specialist to ensure that these
requirements are met. If the Technical Specialist associated with the Glen Blake Farm lagoon
closure is satisfied that the requirements of NRCS Technical Guide Standard 998 have been met,
then this office will accept that decision.
I thank you very much for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions or
comments please contact me at [phone] ext. 208.
Sincerely,
Carl Dunn

This is to acknowledge receipt of your request that your facility no longer be registered as an 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 for a 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 $10,000 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 which require certified animal waste management plans are as follows:
Swine
250
Confined Cattle
100
Horses
75
Sheep
1,000
Pouln with a liquid waste system
30,000
If you have questions regarding this letter or the status of your operation please call Sue Homewood of our staff

the Lagoon_ He said that there was not much sludge in tho lagoon,:
and there vas -very little nitrogen. Mr. .Blake stated that he had
the two fields'by the hog houses and another small field across the
road, by his house, that We Could put some on if we had to:
I bid oh the lagoon_ Mr. Blake called and informed me that we had
gotten the job. While we were setting up, Brad Alligood from soil'
and water came by, .1 asked him how much nitrogen was in the lagoon?
He did not know, and.called-Rufus Croom who said there was about one
(1) pound per thousand gallons.
The field by Mr.-Blake's house would be extremely'hard to get to_
We not only would have to cross the road, there was a deep ditch to
contend with as well as having to go through his yard with pipe.

The Farmstar Direct Injector
liquid manure or other liquid wa:
less labor than any other
You'll Profit 8 Ways with the
Farmstar Direct Injector System.
Minimizes Odors and
1 Maximizes Nutrient Benefits
University studies prove that injecting liquid manure
is the best way to handle wastes for nutrient/fertilizer value.
Injection also greatly reduces odor problems, runoff, and
nitrogen loss to the air and it allows soil micro-organisms
to decompose organic matter to release available nutrients
when placed at 4'. to 6" depths with the Farmstar
wide sweep.
One -Fourth the Application Time of Hauling
and Less Soil Compaction
You can eliminate all the lime -and -fuel -burning trips
back and forth with the tank wagons when you use the
Farmstar Direct Injector System... not to mention the wear
and tear on equipment and the "road -building" compaction of
your valuable soil. What's more, depending upon your soil
requirements, the Farmstar system lets you apply up to 60,000
gallons per hour of liquid manure. That's about four or
five times faster than the application rate using a 3,000 gallon
tank - a big time savings during busy planting and
harvest seasons.
3 No -Plug, Uniform Distribution of Heavy Slurry
You can use the Farmstar System at high or low application
rates with liquid wastes that have a high solids concentration
and still get the same even flow to each injector sweep.
Unlike systems that depend on high rates to prevent
plugging or unequal flow, Farmstar incorporates a patented
rotary distribution manifold, with a hydraulic motor -driven
impeller inside the housing, that chops up clumps, fibers
and other solids... and pumps the liquid waste with equal
flow through large 3" diameter hoses to each of the 3, 5 or 7
sweeps being used. With the proper pump (like a Farmstar
Slurry King), your application field can be two miles away
and still get adequate flow and pressure.
4 Trouble Free Operation
The pivot arm swings 1800 with hose guides to keep
the hose up and over the tool bar and injector shanks.
This allows easy turning without tangled or twisted hose.
5 1000/a Even Application in Crop Root Zone
Instead of digging narrow, deep trenches with a chisel
point and applying liquid manure by vertical distribution,
the Farmstar 24" specially designed sweep lifts soil up and
makes a cavity into which the liquid flows evenly along
the width of the sweep. This keeps the manure deposited in a
loosened soil area in the root zone (4" to 6" below the
surface) where university tests show maximum uptake of
plant food nutrients occurs.

Precise Control for Even Application
With a Farmstar Direct Injector System, you can
precisely control the gallons per acre application of liquid
manure. That means not applying too much or too little
N P K (nitrogen -phosphates -potash). That also means
obtaining maximum yields while reducing your chemical
fertilizer purchases.
This control is achieved by making a single ajustment
after calculating how pumping distance, pipe size, pump
capacity, and tractor miles per hour relate to each other.
r More From Farmstar
Slurry King - High Volume and
High Pressure, even at great distances
The Farmstar Slurry King liquid manure pump, with
precision machining of all components to extremely close
tolerances, has the power to pump heavy slurries to fields up
to two miles away. Also featuring a 3'-wide impeller for
clog -free operation, the Slurry King is an excellent pump choice
for use with the Direct Injector System.
Farmstar Model 1501 Propeller Agitator
If you are pumping out of a lagoon or pit, the Farmstar
Propeller Agitator will break up the thickest of top crusts, chop
and blend weeds and other growth, and efficiently mix solids
and liquids into a smooth, pumpable slurry. Its strong turbulent
undercurrents will also eliminate bottom build up.
Farmstar Hose Reel Cart
A Farmstar Hose Reel Cart has two separate reels. each
able to hold 660' of hose, and a PTO -powered air purge
system, With a lower profile that helps cut down on hose wear
and tear, this cart lets you easily transport and lay out the
two hoses used with the Direct Injector System.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
February 20, 1996
NC 27610
TYPE OPERATION: Farrow to Finish Swine
NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 30 sows design capacity
PAGE 1
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified
rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or groundwater. The plant
nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of
commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where waste
is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the
limiting nutrient. Waste 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 infilitration
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 pre-
gautions, 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 the 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.
This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this
is the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you
choose to inject the waste in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating waste are
not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage require-
ments 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.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 2
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
30 sows x 19.9 tons waste/sows/year = 597 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
30 sows x 26 lbs PAN/sows/year = 780 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time
and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

NOTE: The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied
while meeting the N requirments. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone
Management Act will require farmers in some eastern counties of NC to
have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This
plan only addresses Nitrogen.

Acres shown in each of the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips along ditches,
odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving
full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total
acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than
the acres shown in the tables.
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. Your production
facility will produce approximately 129 pounds of plant
available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the sludge that will need to be
removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when broadcasting
the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well
special equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
waste water.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of
the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs.
This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure,
soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the
soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen
applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage
and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every

.6,months. in no instance should the volume of waste being stored in
Your structure be within 2 feet of the top of the dike.

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN PAGE 5
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of Nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report
for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper
application rate prior to applying the waste.
NARRATIVE OF OPERATION:

1. Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff,
drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge
during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which
reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division
of Environmental Management for every day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that
the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate
land to properly dispose of waste. If the producer does not own
adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS
with a copy of a written agreement with a landowner who is within
a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for
waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility
to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is
a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals,
method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the
Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type,
available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and
level of management, unless there are regulations that
restrict the rate of application for other nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource
Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System
(ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 10 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips
will be used where runoff leaves the field. These filter
strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by DEM.
(See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390
Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after
waste application. Waste should not be applied when the
wind is blowing.
6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to
flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally
tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops
or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the
application does not occur during a season prone to
flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" in
the NRCS Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.
7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil
infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or
to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur
in order to control conditions conducive to odor or flies
and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during
rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen.

170. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for
spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for
leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils
should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover
crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall
not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of a
crop on bare soil.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to
surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that
are not perennial provided adequate vegetative filter strips
are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwellings other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Waste shall be applied in a 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 discharge or by over -spraying.
Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site
by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be
applied on grassed waterways that discharge into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the
application causes no runoff or drift from the site.
16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into
the animal waste management system.
17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containment structures
must maintain a maximum operating level to provide adequate
storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event in addition to
one (1) foot mandatory freeboard.
18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments,
berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation
shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as
necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as
trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to
areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be
kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms and structures
should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage
or discharge.
19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and imple-
menting a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
20. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should
be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks,
and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept
on site.
