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 February 21, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Jack Respess, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS940007 which expires October 1, 2004. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Jack Respess Farms, located in Washington County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 2000 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals. Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Since this is a revised State General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site specific information, careful evaluation of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is. inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed. The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property. Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility. Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a spray field. - Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143- 215-6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief. If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration. This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership. If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding. This facility is located in a county covered by our Washington Regional Office.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. 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 in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation.

Infiltration rate varies with soils. If applying waste nutrients through an irrigation system, you must apply at a rate that will not result in runoff. This table provides the maximum application rate per hour that may be applied to each field selected to receive wastewater. It also lists the maximum application amount that each field may receive in any one application event.

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

Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. • High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in Ibs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0:85. By adding this quantity to the current soil index for copper or zinc, we can predict life of the site for waste disposal. In addition to copper and zinc indices, this table also provides a summary of lime recommendations for each crop based on the most recent soil sample.

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 of the 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 greater -than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for -guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur 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. - ----- ----- 849017 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/4/2004 Specification Page 1 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.

Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10/4/2004 Specification Page 3 NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION N.C. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590-633 Prepared for: 6y: Farm: Tract: Date: To utilize agricultural wastes for WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT? livestock feed or as an energy source. The conservation practice, Nutrient Management, is managing the amount, source, placement, form and timing of the application of nutrients and soil amendments to achieve realistic production goals, while minimizing nutrient movement to surface or ground waters. The practice, Waste Utilization, is using agricultural waste such as manure or wastewater in an environmentally sound manner. These practices are jointly accomplished through the development of a Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan, which is normally part of a broader Conservation Plan that addresses multiple natural resource concerns on the land. PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT and WASTE UTILIZATION PRACTICES Your nutrient management/waste utilization plan is intended to accomplish one or more of the following objectives: • To budget nutrients for plant production. • To properly utilize manure or organic by- products as a plant nutrient source. • To minimize the delivery of agricultural nutrients to surface and ground water resources. • To maintain or improve the physical, chemical, and biological condition of the soil. CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT 1 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN The information provided in this .lob Sheet and the attachments meet the minimum requirements for a Nutrient Management Plan for USDA-NRCS purposes. This Nutrient Management Plan includes: 1 A plan map and soils map for the area planned (these may be part of the overall Conservation Plan). 2. Location of designated sensitive areas or resources (streams, wells, sinkholes, etc.) and any associated nutrient application setbacks, etc. 3. Your planned crop rotation. 4. Results of soil, plant, water tests. 5. Results from Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) or Leaching Index (LI) as required. 6. Realistic yield expectations for the crops in the rotation, and their source if other than default values approved for N.C. 7. Recommended nutrient application rates for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as timing, form, NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 1 and method of application and incorporation, if applicable. 8. This Job Sheet (or comparable information), that provides the following • General requirements of this practice, as well as additional requirements to meet the natural resource protection purposes listed above. • Additional considerations specific to this plan. • Operation and maintenance information associated with this practice. Because this Nutrient Management Plan includes agricultural organic sources, additional items are required in the plan to ensure proper waste utilization: • Waste Utilization Agreement (if applicable) • Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement (if applicable) • Additional engineering design and operating information for waste storage structures, transport, and application system, as applicable. These designs, and the instructions for operating these structures, is an integral component of your overall Nutrient Management/ Waste Utilization Plan. • Emergency Action Plan to prevent overtopping or other discharges from storage structures or facilities, as applicable. This plan was developed based on the current NRCS 590 and 633 standards and Federal, state, or local regulations or policies. Changes in laws or regulations may necessitate a revision of the plan. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE UTILIZATION General All manure and organic residues must be applied according to a nutrient management plan (see the following section, "BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT1 You are required to acquire and comply with all federal, state, or local permit requirements related to the handling and application of manure or organic materials. The nutrient management/waste utilization plan must address all organic waste generated at or brought to the facility. A Waste Utilization Third Party Agreement must exist to address all organic waste not handled by the nutrient management/waste utilization plan. Manure or organic wastes will not be applied to the following areas: • surface waters, • wetlands, unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system, • soils subject to frequent flooding during the period when flooding is expected, • frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soils, • within 200 feet of a dwelling other than those owned by the producer, • within 100 feet of a well, within 25 feet of surface waters, or within any other setbacks as identified by federal, state, or local laws or regulations (e.g.' NC General Statute prevents swine lagoon effluent from being applied within 75 feet of a residential property boundary or perennial stream or river if the facility was sited on or after October 1995.) Manure or organic wastes will be applied in a manner not to reach surface waters, wetlands (unless constructed as a component in a waste treatment system), property owned by others, or public right- of-way. Sludge that accumulates in waste storage structures must be analyzed prior to land NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 2 application. Adequate provisions (available land and/or third party manure agreements) must exist to ensure sludge is applied in adherence to all nutrient application requirements. All federal and state guidance regarding the proper testing, handling, planning, and application of sludge must be followed for regulated operations. Since compliance with all applicable North Carolina laws is the responsibility of the producer, you should consult the most current version of the Guidance Memo for Implementing the Environmental Management Commission's Regulations for Animal Waste Management for questions. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING LIVESTOCK FEED If applicable, all agricultural wastes or other organic residues used for feedstock must be handled in a manner to minimize contamination and preserve its feed value. Chicken litter stored for this purpose must be covered. A qualified animal nutritionist shall develop rations that utilize animal wastes. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROVIDING A SOURCE OF ENERGY If your facility is to be used for energy production, all energy producing components of the system are included in the Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan and provisions for the utilization of residues of energy production identified. Your Nutrient Management Plan includes the use of these residues, if applicable. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT General Application of nutrients must comply with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The realistic yield expectations (RYES) in this plan are based on one or more of the following: • Default values approved by the N.C. Interagency Nutrient Management Committee that incorporate soil productivity information, yield data, and research with North Carolina soils, and cropping systems. Additional information on the default values may be found'at: www.soil.ncsu.edu/nmp/ncnm—wrrndex.htm -• Documented actual yield data from the site, determined by the average of the highest three yields of the last five consecutive specific crop harvests. (For forage crops, determine the average of the highest three years of the last five years.) A fertilization rate recommended by North Carolina State University may be used in cases where no yield data or approved RYE values exist for a crop. • An RYE inferred from a similar crop on a soil with similar physical and chemical features may be used for new crops or in the absence of other RYE data. This inferred RYE may ONLY be specified by a certified Nutrient Management planner. Erosion, runoff, and water management controls have been planned, as needed, on fields that receive nutrients. Soil Testing This nutrient management plan has been developed based on current soil test results (no older than three years). Soil samples must be collected and prepared in accordance with North Carolina State University or the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) Agronomic Division standards or recommendations. NC Practice fob Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 3 Soil test analyses can be performed by any laboratory or program that is certified by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of Water Quality, Laboratory Section. NCDA&CS Agronomic Division uses the Mehlich-3 extractant process for soil testing. Growers who utilize other laboratories must request the use of the Mehlich-3 methodology to ensure the test results are compatible with - North Carolina's nutrient management planning and assessment tools. For statewide consistency, all laboratories used must provide fertilization recommendations using guidelines and methodologies as referenced at the NCDA&CS website: www. nca r_ com/a ronomi/obook. htm Growers are encouraged to use a laboratory that is supported by field research within the state. Soil testing shall include analysis for all nutrients for which specific information is needed to develop the nutrient plan. Plant Tissue Testing Tissue sampling and testing, when used, shall be done in accordance with North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS standards or recommendations. Manure Testing Nutrient values of manure and organic by- products shall be established for planning purposes based on laboratory analysis, acceptable default values, or historic records for the operation. When determining actual application rates, a laboratory analysis is required. State regulations. require that waste be tested within 60 days of utilization for some operations. In the case of daily spreading, the waste must be sampled and analyzed at least once a year. Acceptable laboratories include the NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, or others certified by the NCDENR. Field Risk Assessment A field -specific assessment of the potential for phosphorus transport from each field (or groups of similar fields) have been conducted, using the North Carolina Phosphorus Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) PLAT assesses the potential for phosphorus (P) to be transported from the site to surface water through each of the four primary loss pathways: • sediment -bound P transported through erosion, • soluble P transported through surface runoff, • soluble P leached through the soil profile, and • non -incorporated source P transported through surface runoff. Based on the assessment of each loss pathway, PLAT produces a single rating for each field. As shown below, this rating will identify whether nitrogen or phosphorus shall be the rate -determining element in developing the planned application rate for manure. PLAT Rating I Nutrient Application Criteria LOW Nitrogen -based manure application. MEDIUM Nitrogen -based manure application. HIGH Manure application limited to phosphorus removal from site in harvested plant biomass. VERY HIGH No additional manure application to be specified in plan for the site. On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers may be recommended in accordance with NCSU guidelines or recommendations. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 4 In some cases, specific conservation practices that reduce the potential for phosphorus transport have been incorporated into PLAT. Examples include buffers or filter strips, ponds, water table management, and residue management and conservation tillage. Similarly, soil erosion rates, either existing or planned, have been incorporated into your PLAT analysis. This information is shown on the PLAT results enclosed. Because the management of the site actually affects the, PLAT rating, all practices identified on the PLAT analysis (including any required to achieve the specified erosion rate) must be either already installed or included in a Conservation Plan for the Nutrient Management Plan to be approved. Nutrient Application Rates Recommended nutrient application rates are based on North Carolina State University or NCDA&CS recommendations that consider current soil test results, RYES, and management. Liming material shall be applied as needed to adjust soil pH to the specific range required by the crop or crops in the rotation for optimum availability and utilization of nutrients. The application amount and rate (inlhr) for liquid wastes (e.g. applied through irrigation) shall not result in runoff from the site. The application shall not exceed the field capacity of the soil. The -planned rates of nutrient application are shown on the attached sheets. These rates have been computed as follows: Nitrogen Application - When the plan is nitrogen -based (a PLAT rating of Low or Medium), the application rate of manure or organic by-products shall be based on the recommended nitrogen rate using the RYE for the site (or a rate recommended by NCSU or NCDA in the case of crops without established RYES). This may result in an application rate for other nutrients that exceeds the soil test recommendation. When the plan is being implemented on a phosphorus standard (a PLAT rating of High or Very High), manure or other organic by-products shall be applied at rates consistent with the phosphorus application guidance below. In such situations, an additional nitrogen application from non -organic sources may be required to supply nitrogen at the rate recommended by the RYE. • Within the limits allowed by PLAT, manure or other organic by-products may be applied on soybeans at rates equal to the estimated removal of nitrogen in harvested plant biomass. All nitrogen rates for hay production are for pure grass stands. Due to the nutrient recycling by grazing animals, the planned nitrogen rate per unit yield for hay crops shall be reduced by 25% for the portion of the expected yield that is removed through grazing. Phosphorus Application — When manure or other organic by-products are used, the planned rates of phosphorus application shall be based on the PLAT rating for the site, as follows: Low or Medium Rating — The planned manure or organic by- product application rate is based on the nitrogen needs of the crop. High Rating — The planned manure or organic by-product application rate is limited to the phosphorus removal rate of the harvested plant biomass. Very High Rating — No additional manure or organic by-product application is specified in the plan. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 5 On all sites, regardless of the PLAT rating, starter fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium may be recommended in accordance with North Carolina State University guidelines or recommendations. A single application of phosphorus applied as manure or organic by-product may be made at a rate equal to the recommended phosphorus application or estimated phosphorus removal in harvested plant biomass for the crop rotation or multiple years in the crop sequence. • When such single applications are made, the rate shall: ♦ not exceed the recommended nitrogen application rate during the year of application, or ♦ not exceed the estimated nitrogen removal in harvested plant bio- mass during the year of application when there is no recommended nitrogen application, or • not be made on sites with a Very High PLAT risk rating. • Potassium Application — Planned potassium application rates should match the soil test recommended rates as closely as possible. (This is particularly critical in situations where a potentially harmful nutrient imbalance in crops or forages may occur, such as grass tetany). When using manure or other organic sources, the addition of potassium from non -organic sources may be required. • Other Plant Nutrients - The planned rates of application of other nutrients if applicable are consistent with North Carolina State University or the NCDA&CS guidelines or recommendations. Nutrient Application Timing Timing of nutrient application shall correspond as closely as possible with plant nutrient uptake characteristics, while considering cropping system limitations, weather and climatic conditions, and field accessibility. Nutrients shall not be applied to frozen, snow-covered, or saturated soil. Manure or organic by-products shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. For nutrients applied through irrigation systems, application equipment should be properly calibrated to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates. Plan Review and Revision Period A thorough review and revision (if needed) of the nutrient management plan shall be conducted on a regular cycle, not to exceed five years. Heavy Metals Monitoring For animal waste, including sludge, zinc and copper concentrations shall be monitored and alternative crop sites for application shall be sought when these metals approach excessive concentrations. The following criteria and actions are provided: Mehlich-3Index Action Zn-I 300 (21 lbslac) Peanuts are very sensitive to zinc, and application on peanuts should be limited. Seek alternative sites when possible. The risk of zinc toxicity is greater with low soil pH and has been seen at Zn-I as low as 300. • 500 (35 Ibslac) Critical toxic level for peanuts.

(The streamstwater bodies in this category are listed in the USDA- NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, Section I.) ❑ NO This nutrient management plan IS NOT in an area where surface waters are impaired, with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is not required. ❑ YES This nutrient management plan IS in an area -where surface waters are impaired, with agricultural nutrients identified as a likely source. The Leaching Index (LI) is included in this plan. While the results of the LI does not affect your planned nutrient application rates, some additional conservation practices may be specified in the plan to reduce the risk of nutrient movement from the field, if applicable. IMPORTANCE OF MANAGING NUTRIENTS Nitrogen and phosphorus are water soluble elements and either or both may be components of organic and inorganic fertilizers. In soluble forms, both can move with water as leachate down through the soil, or over the soil surface as runoff after rainfall. While nitrogen and phosphorus exist in different forms and may move through different transport processes on the same site, they both can have detrimental effects on both surface and. shallow ground water quality. As an example, excess nutrients can result in accelerated eutrophication with severe algal blooms and fish kills. Because of the topography, hydrology, and other factors in the state, the environmental problems from excess nutrients reaching surface water may not be exhibited near the contributing source, but rather create water quality problems far downstream. Consequently, the Neuse River Basin, Tar -Pamlico Basin, the Chowan River, the watershed of the B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, and the watershed of the New River in Onsiow County are listed as Nutrient Sensitive waters in North Carolina. Nitrogen: Nitrogen applied as fertilizer or organic material is transformed into nitrate and can move with the water moving downward into the shallow ground water and eventually to surface waters. (Relatively small amounts of nitrogen reach our surface waters through rainfall runoff. ) The Leaching Index (LI) is a NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 7 required part of the nutrient management plan in some areas of the state with surface water impairments. The LI uses soils information and local climate data to assess the potential hazard from leaching of nutrients. The results of the LI analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. Phosphorus: Research in recent decades indicates that, with high soil phosphorus levels, phosphorus has more potential to be transported off -site than recognized in the past. Phosphorus can be transported in several ways: (1) attached to soil particles leaving the field through erosion, (2) in soluble form leaving the field in surface runoff, and (3) in soluble form leaching downward through the soil profile, and eventually into surface water. Unlike nitrogen, the most likely transport pathway for phosphorus varies by site, and depends upon such factors as soil erosion rate, soil phosphorus levels, texture of soils, existence of buffers, and other factors. In N.C., PLAT is the tool used to assess potential excessive phosphorus losses. The results of the PLAT analysis and recommended actions are included in your nutrient management plan, if applicable. If a site receives a PLAT rating of Low or Medium, then applying manure at rates based on the nitrogen needs of the crop is allowed. It is important to realize that this may result in phosphorus being applied at rates that significantly exceed the crop's phosphorus removal rate. In these cases, the planned nutrient application rate is not sustainable, and eventually a PLAT rating of High may be reached. OPERATION & MAINTENANCE You are responsible for safe operation and maintenance of this practice, including all equipment. The following Operation & Maintenance should be conducted: 1 Review the plan annually to determine if adjustments or modifications to the plan are needed. (The S.B. 1217 interagency group guidelines accepted by the N.C. Division of Water Quality for .0200 operations specify a plan revision when there are changes in crops or cropping patterns that utilize more than 25 percent of the nitrogen generated by the operation.) As a minimum, nutrient management plans shall be thoroughly reviewed every five years and revised if necessary. The next review will be performed in 2. Protect fertilizer and organic by- product storage facilities from weather and accidental leakage or spillage. 3. Ensure proper calibration of application equipment to ensure uniform distribution of material at planned rates. 4. Inspect and maintain the equipment and facilities used to implement the Nutrient Management/Waste Utilization Plan regularly. Any needed repairs should be made in a timely manner. 5. Review the Emergency Action Plan, if applicable, annually. 6. Records should be maintained for five years, or for a period as required by other Federal, state, or local ordinances, or program or contract requirements. To ensure adequate information exists to support sound nutrient management, NRCS recommends the following records be included: • Soil test results and recommendations for nutrient application, • Quantities, analyses and sources of nutrients applied (When the actual rates used exceed the recommended and planned rates on inorganic fertilizer plans, NC Practice Job Sheet. NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 8 records should indicate the reasons for the differences, e.g. inability to acquire custom blended fertilizer.} Dates and method of nutrient applications, • Crops planted, planting and harvest dates, yields, and crop residues removed, • Results of water, plant, and organic by- product analyses, and • Dates of review and person performing the review, and recommendations that resulted from the review. NOTE: State laws or regulations may define record -keeping requirements for some operations. 7. Ensure that workers are protected from and avoid unnecessary contact with inorganic fertilizers and organic by- products. Protection should include the use of protective clothing when working with plant nutrients. Extra caution must be taken when handling ammonia sources of nutrients, or when dealing with organic wastes stored in poorly ventilated enclosures. 8. Properly dispose of material generated by the cleaning of nutrient application equipment. Excess material should be collected and stored or field applied in an appropriate manner. Excess material should not be applied on areas of high potential risk for runoff or leaching. 9. Properly dispose of or recycle nutrient containers according to state and local guidelines or regulations. NC Practice Job Sheet: NC-590 (August, 2003) Page 9 Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 Corn CP, Organic Soils In the Coastal Plain, corn is normally planted when soil temperatures reach 52 to 55 degrees fahrenheit. Review the Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 1-2" deep. Plant populations should be determined by the hybrid being planted. Increase the seeding rate by 10% when planting no -till. Phosphorus and potassium recommended by a soil test can be broadcast or banded at planting. When planting early in cool, wet soil, banded phosphorus will be more available to the young plants. An accepted practice is to apply 20-30 Ibs/acre N and 20-30 lbs/acre phosphorus banded as a starter and one-half the remaining N behind the planter. The rest of the N should be applied about 30-40 days after emergence. The total amount of N is dependent on soil type. When including a starter in the fertilizer program, the recommended potassium and any additional phosphorus is normally broadcast at planting. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the corn. Timely management of weeds and insects are essential for corn production. The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 3,-4, 5, 6, 8 Cotton CP, Organic soils In the Coastal Plain, cotton is normally planted from April 15-May 5 when warm(above 65 F) temperatures and dry weather are present and predicted to remain for at least 5 to 7 days after planting. Avoid planting after May 20 if at all possible. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 4-6 seed/row foot at a depth of 1/2-1 ". Adequate depth control is essential. Recommended phosphorus and potash can be broadcast or banded at planting. Apply 20-25 lbs/acre N at planting. Apply the remaining recommended N as a sidedress application 2 to 3 weeks after first square. The total N needed is dependent on soil type. Apply 1.0 lb/acre actual boron either at planting or at sidedress; or, foliar apply 1/2 lb/acre actual boron with 1/4 lb/acre applied at early bloom and the other 1/4 lb/acre about 2 weeks later. The boron needs to be available to the cotton during fruiting. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the cotton. Timely management of insects, weeds, and excessive vegetative growth are essential for profitable cotton production. ----- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.--------------------------- ...................... 849017 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 10-04-2004 Crop Note Page Page 1 of 2 The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 Wheat.

Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply no more than 30 lbs/acre N at planting. Phosphorus and potash recommended by a soil test report can also be applied at this time. The remaining N should be applied during the months of February -March. The total N is dependent on the soil type. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the wheat. Timely management of diseases, insects and weeds are essential for profitable wheat production. The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 Double -Crop Soybeans, Coastal Plain: Organic Soils Double -crop soybeans should be planted as early in June as possible with planting completed by July 4th. When no -tilling soybeans in small grain straw, it is essential to manage the straw to achieve adequate plant populations. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 2-4 seed/row foot for 7-8" drills; 4-6 seed/row foot for 15" rows; 6-8 seed/row foot for 30" rows and 8-10 seed/row foot for 36" rows. Increase the seeding rate by at least 10% for no -till planting. Seeding depth should be 1-1 1/2" and adequate depth control is essential. Phosphorus and potash recommended for the soybeans can be applied to the wheat in the Fall. For soils such as------- phosphorus should be applied at planting as phosphorus will leach from these soils. Soybeans produce their own nitrogen and are normally grown without additions of nitrogen. However, applications of 20-30 lbs/acre N are sometimes made at planting to promote early growth and vigor. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the overall nutrient status of the soybeans. Timely management of weeds and insects is essential for profitable double crop soybean production.

The Waste Utilization table shown below summarizes the waste utilization plan for this operation. 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 in the table to ensure that the plan adequately provides for the utilization of the manure generated by the operation. Depending on the requirements of the crop and the nutrient content of the waste, some nutrients will likely be over or under applied if animal waste is being utilized. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are required if animal waste is being applied. Soil tests should be used to balance the nutrient application amounts with the realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Nutrient management plans may require that the application of animal waste be limited so as to prevent over application of phosphorous when excessive levels of this nutrient are detected in a field.

Fields that receive manure must have an annual soil analysis for these elements. High levels of zinc and copper can adversely affect plant growth. Alternative crop sites must be used when the concentration of these metals approach excessive levels. Site life can be estimated by dividing the amount of copper and zinc to be applied in lbs/acre by 0.036 and 0.071, respectively and multiplying the result by 0.85.

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 of the 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 betaken 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 greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate Rand 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 n utrients. 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 dishing 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 CIimate in North Carolina" for guidance). --- -- .......... ............. ............. 1§8750 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 8/1/02 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. g. 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. ................

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. ............................ Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 8/1/02 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. ................................. - . ....--.---.............---*--.....---................-.....---..-..--..-........-----.............------- 198750 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 811102 Specification Page 4 �f. Crop Notes The following crop note applies to field(s): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 Cotton CP, Organic soils In the Coastal Plain, cotton is normally planted from April 15-May 5 when warm(above 65 F) temperatures and dry weather are present and predicted to remain for at least 5 to 7 days after planting. Avoid planting after May 20 if at all possible. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Plant 4-6 seed/row foot at a depth of 1/2-1 ". Adequate depth control is essential. Recommended phosphorus and potash can be broadcast or banded at planting. Apply 20-251bs/acre N at planting. Apply the remaining recommended N as a sidedress application 2 to 3 weeks after first square. The total N needed is dependent on soil type. Apply 1.0 lb/acre actual boron either at planting or at sidedress; or, foliar apply 1/2 lb/acre actual boron with 1/4 lb/acre applied at early bloom and the other 1/4 lb/acre about 2 weeks later. The boron needs to be available to the cotton during fruiting. Tissue samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the cotton. Timely management of insects, weeds, and excessive vegetative growth are essential for profitable cotton production. 198750 Database Version 2.0 Date Printed: 08-01-2002 Crop Note Page I of 1 o�Ot wAr�9�6 3�M) >_ July 22, 2002 Mr. Jack Respes_S Jack Respess Farm 25556 Hwy 264 E Pantego, NC 27960 Subject Wettable Acres Determination Status & Notification Facility No. 94-7 Washingtan County Michael F.

Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Jack Respess Farms Facility Number 94-7 Washington County Dear Jack Respess: A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only the acres that are wetted can be -credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your plan. An evaluation by Daphne Cullom on 5/5/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility that receive animal waste during land application. The evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X". Category 1: The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Daphne Cullom the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination. Please submit this information to Daphne Cullom, at 943 Washington Square Mail, Washington, NC 27889, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any questions please contact Daphne Cullom at (252) 946-6481. If within 90 days you are unable to provide Daphne Cullom with the information you are automatically required to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days of receipt of this letter. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 Fax 919-715-6W An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper Notification for Wettable Acre Determination Animal Waste Management System Page 2 Category 2: ❑ Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a facility that may have overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, the" Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural -Resources Conservation Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this designation, or a Professional Engineer. All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next 180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation, and/or injunctive relief. Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attached Wettable Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form. Please note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Beginning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRRI, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLURI, SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied.. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as -the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be - balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching.potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Page: 1 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION P,...,N 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods 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 requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission. AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.) 2000 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 3800 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 2000 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 4600 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. Page: 2 t.

Actual total acres in the fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables. See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: 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 740 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3700 pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 12.3333333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 29.6 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25%s depending on your sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and Page: 6 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Tract Field Soil Type Crop Application Rate (in/hr) Applic. Amount (inches) 585 5 Hy C 0.3 R• *1.0 - 585 6 Hy C 0.3 *1.0 585 7 Rp W 0.3 *1.0 585, 8 Rp W 0.3 *1.0 585 SB 0.3 *1.0 585 `8 SB 0.3 *1.0 * This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables I 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.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/herlthe use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall 1,�e applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur 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 or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. Page; 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PL-.R RE UIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 preplant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

Page: 15 Producer: Jack Respess The purpose of this plan is to provide guidelines for carrying out the routine operation and maintenance work needed to keep this swine waste management system functioning as planned. Routine maintenance is considered to be normal good care of the system. Good maintenance adds to beauty, usefulness, and permanence. A. Maintenance The routine maintenance of the lagoon involves the following: 1. Maintenance of a vegetative cover on the embankment top and side slopes: Common Bermuda is being established on these areas. Beginning in 1997 and each year thereafter, the embankment should be fertilized with 800 pounds of 10-10-10 per acre to maintain a vigorous stand. 2. Control of brush and trees on the embankment. This may be done by mowing, spraying, or chopping, or a combination of all three. This will need to be done at least once each year and possibly twice in years favorable to heavy growth of vegetation. Maintenance inspections of the lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at least monthly. Items to be checked should include, as a minimum, the following: 1. Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and overflow Pipes a. separation of joints b. cracks or breaks C. accumulation of salts or minerals d. overall condition of pipes 2. Lagoon surface a. undesirable vegetative growth b. floating or lodged debris 3. Embankment a. settlement, cracking or "jug" holes b. side slope stability - slumps or bulges C. wet or damp areas on the back slope d. erosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action e. rodent damage 4. Transfer Pump - recycling and irrigation pumps 1 W4M a. overall pump operation b. leaks C. loose fittings 5. Surface water diversion a. adequate vegetation b. diversion capacity C. ridge berm height B. Operation Your animal waste management facility was designed for a total of 2000 head feeder to finish. The lagoon contains both permanent and temporary storage. The permanent storage is not to be pumped in order to ensure that anaerobic action will occur. The design storage includes permanent storage of one cubic foot per pound of steady state live weight. The temporary storage portion of the -lagoon includes capacity for the volume of waste produced over 180 days, the amount of rainfall in a 25 year 24 hour storm event plus an additional "heavy rain" factor, and rainfall in excess of evaporation. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage; therefore, it will need to be pumped every six months. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches elevation 12.4 as marked by permanent markers. Stop pump -out when the fluid level reaches elevation 6.0. 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. The attached waste management plan must be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see Attachment B) before land application. The waste material should be analyzed before each application cycle to determine its nutrient content. A soil test of the area of application should be made annually to insure the waste is applied as reasonably and practically possible to recommended rates. Waste treatment lagoons must be precharged with a volume of water equal to one-half of the treatment volume before wastes are introduced. Precharging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. 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 pipes as possible in 2 GVVSG 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 dike and not in the highest section of fill. The pipe trench should be compacted with clay material. After five years the waste treatment lagoon must be checked for sludge accumulation annually. If sludge has encroached into the treatment volume, the sludge must 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. 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,l, 1993 (15A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation shall be operated within the requirements of these rules and regulations. 3 k < '-; �" ,...' �.. . .�:!' _4`,. ,. $;��„>,r:?:-e .,.. �. ,:,, •. `'. .,-r ... .,>_, = 5. �.':n1`�i�� :.��': sz.,� �. -,q,- ,$sl,Iai £� ^, fir; !p ' S - .�.x' *§sT„ r ux. .as .,. ,,6, . .. ° •r `"k� xf � � kit 9 s a {� a?r,Y'-, d�� 4,.p ':4 � i § H � � •� �v".� �. q- _ yam- g '�y it a �' 4 F-T -1 � `4 :f'e 1 Y a y�, ,w u X .x' '. �.� "i h S {. ....

A. Waste Treatment Lagoon The routine maintenance of the lagoon involves the.following: 1. Maintenance of a vegetative cover on the dike top and -side slopes: KY-31 Tall Fescue and common bermuda is being' -established on these areas. Beginning the year after establishment and each year thereafter, the dike should be fertilized with 800 lbs. of 10-10-10 per acre to maintain a vigorous stand. 2. Control of brush and trees on the dike. This may be'done by mowing, spraying, or chopping, or a combination of all three. This will need to be done at least once each year and possibly twice in years favorable to heavy growth of vegetation. Maintenance inspections of the lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon and at least annually. Items to be checked sh.ould include, as a minimum, the following: 1. Waste Inlet -Pipes, a. condition of pipes (1) separation of joints (2) cracks or breaks 2. Pool Area a. undesirable vagetative growth b.'floating or lodged debris 3. Dike a. settlement, cracking, or washes b. side slopes stability - slumps or bulges c. erosion d. rodent damage B. Management and land application of waste nutrients Pumping of waste shall be on 18 o day cycle. Permanent storage shall not be pumped below 6 feet in order to insure anaerobic action. (For sludge accumulation, permanent storage shall not be pumped below 8 feet.) Ground conditions need to be evaluated prior to beginning irrigation. Waste should not be applied to either saturated soils or to lands on which the soil surface is frozen, since waste may run off to subsurface drainage systems. Wind conditions should be observed to avoid drift and odor problems. Subsurface outlets and downstream drainage should be constantly monitored. Maximum application rates should consider the intake capability of the particular soils and the crops that the waste is applied on. The waste material should be analyzed every year to determine its nutrient content. R soil test of the area of application should be made annually to insure.the waste is applied as reasonably and practically possible to recommended rates. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the Potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. r1 c, A,� A .4r&-- RESPASS WASHINGTON COUNTY ASSISTED BY croom 03-31-1991 DISTANCE TO NEAREST NON --FARM RESIDENCE IS 2000 FEET : THIS IS A FINISHING OPERATION DESIGNED FOR 2000 ANIMALS THIS DESIGN IS FOR A STEADY STATE LIVE WEIGHT OF 270000 POUNDS THERE IS NO SLUDGE INCLUDED IN THIS DESIGN THE DESIGN TREATMENT VOLUME FOR THIS LAGOON IS 270015.9 CUBIC FEET THIS LAGOON IS DESIGNED FOR 180 DAYS OF TEMPORARY STORAGE THIS LAGOON HAS 0 GALLONS OF FRESH WASH WATER ADDED PER DAY THIS LAGOON HAS AN OUTSIDE DRAINAGE AREA OF 10000 SQUARE FEET TEMPORARY STORAGE VOLUME FROM WASTE, WASH WATER, AND OUTSIDE DRAINAGE AREA IS 165405.7 CUBIC FEET THIS IS A TWO --STAGE LAGOON FIRST STAGE DATA SIDE SLOPES ARE 3 =1 THE WIDTH AT NORMAL OPERATING LEVEL IS 188 THE LENGTH AT NORMAL OPERATING LEVEL IS 251.1 THE DEPTH AT NORMAL OPERATING LEVEL IS 7 THE MINIMUM'TOP DIMENSIONS OF THE FIRST STAGE OF THIS LAGOON INCLUDING FREEBOARD ARE: WIDTH LENGTH DEPTH 194 257.1 8 RESPASS PAGE 2 SECOND STAGE DATA SIDE SLOPES ARE 3 :1 THE WIDTH AT BEGIN PUMPING LEVEL IS 180 THE LENGTH AT BEGIN PUMPING LEVEL IS 205.6 THE DEPTH AT BEGIN PUMPING LEVEL IS 5.3 THE MINIMUM TOP DIMENSIONS OF THE SECOND STAGE OF THIS LAGOON INCLUDING FREEBOARD ARE: WIDTH LENGTH DEPTH 196 221.6 8 THE ACRES REQUIRED FOR NITROGEN DISPOSAL IS 38 THE ACRES REQUIRED FOR P205 DISPOSAL IS 44 THE ACRES REQUIRED FOR K20 DISPOSAL IS 66 THE WASTE WILL BE SURFACE APPLIED ON CORN THE TIME THAT WASTE CAN BE APPLIED IS IN THE OPEN SPACES JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC NNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NN JACK RESPASS WASHINGTON COUNTY ASSISTED BY RUFUS CROOM 03-28-1991 DISTANCE TO NEAREST NON -FARM RESIDENCE IS 2000 FEET THIS IS A FINISHING OPERATION DESIGNED FOR 2000 ANIMALS THIS DESIGN IS FOR A STEADY STATE LIVE WEIGHT OF 270000 POUNDS THERE IS NO SLUEGE INCLUDED IN THIS DESIGN THE DESIGN TREAUMENT VOLUME FOR THIS LAGOON IS 270015.9 CUBIC FEET THIS LAGOON IS EllESIGNED FOR 180 DAYS OF TEMPORARY STORAGE THIS LAGOON HAS 0 GALLONS OF FRESH -WASH WATER ADDED PER DAY THIS LAGOON HAS AN OUTSIDE DRAINAGE AREA OF 10000 SQUARE FEET TEMPORARY STORACE VOLUME FROM WASTE, WASH WATER, AND OUTSIDE DRAINAGE AREA IS 165405.7.

E K Washington County Dear Mr. Respess: Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on Agricultural Waste, enacted by the 1996 North Carolina General Assembly, requires a certified operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine by January 1, 1997. The owner of each animal waste management system must submit a designation form to the Technical Assistance and Certification Group which designates an Operator in Charge and is countersigned by the certified operator. The enclosed form must be submitted by January 1, 1997 for all facilities in operation as of that date. Failure to designate a certified operator for your animal waste management system is a violation of 15A NCAC 2H .0224 and may result in the assessment of a civil penalty. If you have questions concerning operator training or examinations for certification, please contact your local North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service agent or our office. Examinations have been offered on an on -going basis in many counties throughout the state for the past several months and will continue to be offered through December 31, 1996.
