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 Dean Hunkele on 3/24/99 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: JK The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Dean Hunkele the necessary information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre determination.

FORM: AWO-G-E 5/28198 Page 2 of 4 71- 48 I 0 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Producer: LEWIS ROOKS Location: 3618 LITTLE KELLY RD ROCKY POINT NC 28457 Telephone: 9102595737 Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine Number of Animals: 1225.00 hogs (Design Capacity) STORAGE STRUCTURE: Anaerobic Waste Treatment Lagoon APPLICATION METHOD: Irrigation The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. . This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are 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 not 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- a • ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.) 1225 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hags/year = 2327.5 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 1225 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 2817.5 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 I • ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE 1: ACRES OWNED BY PRODUCER TRACT FIELD SOIL TYPE & CLASS- CROP YIELD LBS COMM N ** * LBS DETERMINING PHASE CODE AW N PER ACRES AW N PER AC AC USED ----- or ------- APPLY RESID.

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. 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 453.25 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the -approximately If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2266.25 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 7.55416666667 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 18.13 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25o 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 hown in Tables l and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Page iANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

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 120.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 4.00 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your stracture 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 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 d- The rate of N applied to corn should be reduced by the amount of N applied to the Oat crop, when the oats are tilled into the soil. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Page: 7 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN -------------------------------------------------------------------- REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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. 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/her the 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 be 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. 0 Page: 8 0 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ------------------------------------------------------------------- REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching_ Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop 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 from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (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. S 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 they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly inton water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc_, shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage or discharge. Page: 9 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN •- ------------------------------------------------------------- -_ REQUIRED 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 thes 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 requlations. • Page: 10 i---ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN AGREEMENT u • Name of Farm:ROOKS FARM Owner/Manager Agreement I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications and the operation and maintenance procedures established in the approved animal waste utilization plan for the farm named above.

The soil is sampled and tested annually for the purpose of determining any imbalance of minerals, manor or minor. Lime is applied when report indicates the need. Most satisfactory pH level is 6.0 to 6.5. Not all, but some fields are broken up into small blocks and are sampled as such that I may determine if any small area is out of order. Fields one and two are not always used for waste because of the living quarters of others. Although the land is available for use if need arises. All fields except one and two are used each year for waste. The major crops for this land is oats as winter cover followed by corn. Oats are planted behind corn for winter time spraying, and are plowed under in the spring. The corn is planted without fertilizer except a small band of 30% aitrogen for the purpose of spraying grass control in a ten inch band behind the planter. Fertilizer is applied to the cam as a band application only in proportion to supply plant needs as determined by soil report. Nitrogen is also applied later to balance crop need for satisfactory yields which is usually around 140 bushels. Once corn is harvested, the cycle starts again. Other land in the adjoining area is planted in wheat and then planted in soybeans. This wheat is harvested in June and the land is available for spraying when corn needs to retire from waste spraying. Commercial fertilizer is used only to balance the soil to fit the demands of the crop being grown for maximum yields. When necessary, fertilizer is especially mixed to fit any needs. We operate two pumps when we need to, one pump is a 5 horsepower and one is a 2 horsepower. Both pumps are centrificial irrigation pumps. They operate at 40# pressure. Spray nozzles are 7025 RD-2-1"M--(brochure enclosed), with a spray span of 100 ft. Spray nozzles are set widths of 75 ft. (see graft enclosed) and moved from day to day as area is sprayed to the one inch application. Never exceeding one inch at a time. Ar& the one inch is applied over the entire project, the project begins again_ ON4C The next project is explained on the graph in pencil as spray project 92, At that time it will be recorded as 8.5 A B C D E or 9.5 A B C D E or whatever. Please keep in mind the numbers on the graph represents the center of the field and the high side of the field_ 50 to 75 feet of the low side of the field is not sprayed.

A M IG - November 11. 1996, Page 2 Nutrient Management Plan Lewis Rooks Swine Operation 10 February 1997 This waste management plan is for the swine operation owned and operated by Lewis Rooks located about 1 mile north of Bells Crossroads on Little Kelly Road(State road 1409). This site contains about 1225 feeder to finish hogs. There is a 3/4 acre lagoon at the site which is used for the containment and treatment of the waste produced from the swine at this facility. There are approximately 40 acres of crop land on which the waste could be applied. The waste from this facility must be land applied at the rates specified in the plan and to the approved fields. The plant nutrients in the waste generated should be used to reduce or eliminate the amount of commercial fertilizer required for optimum growth of the crops designated in the plan. The limiting nutrient used for application rate determination is nitrogen(N). Plan specifications are based upon accepted production averages of nutrient levels in swine waste from feeder to finish operations. Nutrient applications can be made during 8 months of the calendar year. • To adequately monitor actual nitrogen and additional nutrients, a waste sample should be submitted for analysis within 60 days of application. Additionally soil samples should be analyzed from waste application fields annually to monitor all soil nutrient levels, especially metals such as copper and zinc. Best management practices with land application of waste ensures proper use of it's fertilizer value while also ensuring it to be environmentally sound. These BMP's along with specifications and requirements for the proper application of liquid animal waste can be found in Section 3-The Nutrient Management Plan, page I and 2; Section 6-Required Specifications; and Section 7-BMP's Handling Swine Waste. The estimated acres needed to apply the produced waste are based on documented average nutrient content for a feeder to finish facility. The plan indicates that excess acres of the predominant Foreston soil series are available to properly utilize the nutrients produced annually. A 2 year cropping sequence of wheat -soybeans -oats - corn will be implemented to utilize the nitrogen from the swine waste. The oats are to be tilled into the soil prior to planting corn. It has been agreed by Mr. Rooks that the nitrogen applied to the oats will be subtracted when applying the total nitrogen • to the corn. • This plan includes adequate buffers and exclusions to satisfy the requirements of the MRCS Technical Standards. Irrigation equipment utilized by this facility may be found in Section 8-Calibration of Nutrient Application Equipment. The producer has verified calibration of his irrigation equipment based upon continual use of rain gauges to monitor the application amount in inches. A signed statement of the equipment and it's usage are included in the section_ 0 This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking, overflowing, or running off the site. You should NOT wait until wastes reach surface waters or leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be available to all employees at the facility, as accidents, leaks, and breaks could happen at any time. Your Emergency Action, Plan is as follows: 1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may not be possible. 1 Suggested responses to problems are listed below: s a. Lagoon overflow - possible solutions are: > Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam > Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate > Stop all additional flow to the lagoon (waterers) > Call a pumping contractor > Make sure no surface water is entering the lagoon NOTE: These activities should be started when your lagoon level has exceeded the temporary storage level. b. Runoff from waste application field - actions include: > Immediately stop waste application > Create a temporary diversion or berm to contain the waste on the field > Incorporate waste to reduce further runoff c. Leakage from the waste distribution system: > Pipes and sprinklers -actions include: -stop recycle (flushing system) pump -stop irrigation pump -close valves to eliminate further discharge -separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow > Flush system, houses, solids separators -actions include: -stop recycle (flushing system) pump -stop irrigation pump -make sure no siphon effect has been created -separate pipes to create an air gap and stop flow • Emergency Action Plan Page -2- d. Leakage from base or sidewalI of lagoon. Often these are seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -possible action*: > Dig a small well or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump back into lagoon. > If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove_ animals and fill holes and compact with a clay type soil > Other holes may be likewise temporarily plugged with clay soil *Lagoon problems require the consultation of an individual experienced in the design and installation of lagoons for permanent repair measures. 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. a. Did the waste reach any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted, such as employee injury, fish,kills, or property damage? 0 3. Contact appropriate agencies. The numbers are listed below: a. During normal business hours, call your DWQ (formerly DEN) regional office (910) 395 -3900, Emergency number: (919) 733-3942. Your phone call should include: your name, facility, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2 above, the exact location of the facility, and the location or direction of movement of the spill, weather and wind conditions, what corrective measures have been under taken, and the seriousness of the situation. b.

Contact CES (910) 259-1235, and local SWCD and MRCS office (9XLl).259- 4305 for advice/technical assistance. e. Contact your swine company 4. Implement procedures as advised by DEM and technical assistance agencies to rectify the damage, repair the system, and reassess the waste management plan to keep problems with release of wastes from happening again. 0 0 • • Waste Application Records Your irrigation records consist of two forms. One form is for your use in the field to record any irrigation event on any field. This form may include irrigation events on several fields on several different dates. Under- the sprinkler nozzle section are several headings. it you know the diameter of the sprinkler nozzle and the pressure at the nozzle, you can use the tables in the calibration section of this book to obtain flow rate in gallons per minute. The second form is your permanent record form for each individual field for a period of one year. You may wish to subcode each field number to correspond with a sprinkler set if you are using a permanent irrigation system. Many times you may irrigate only a portion of the field. If so, one could have field 1A, 18, IC, etc. The permanent cumulative record could be used for each sprinkler set as mentioned above so that the acres column would be correct for the portion irrigated rather than the acres, for the entire field. if one uses a traveler system, then coding eac!-: hydrant or pull position such as 1A, 15, 1C, etc. would be useful. pp Am I s m% tc�l y UNITED STATES NATURAL RESOURCES FEDERAL BUILDING, ROOM 108 DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION 134 NORTH JOHN STREET AGRICULTURE SERVICE GOLDSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA 27530 TELEPHONE: 919-734-0961 ------------------------_------------------------------------------------ SUBJECT: ENG - Waste Management System, Lewis DATE: June 14, 1995 Rooks, Pender County TO: Jeff Raifsnider, District Consyst. FILE CODE: 210 NRCS, Pender County Attached are computations showing that Mr. Lewis Rooks has 120 days (4 months) temporary storage in his single stage waste treatment lagoon. The operation was originally designed for 1100 finishing hogs and 180 days of temporary storage. Mr. Rooks has increased his operation to 1225 head without enlarging the lagoon or storage area. We assiskd with the original design and construction approval. There are a couple of alternatives to consider: 1. Develop a waste utilization plan that shows a cropping system that will work with 4 months temporary storage. Consider buffers, irrigation inefficiency, restricted areas, etc. 2. If a waste utilization plan cannot be developed for a 4 month storage interval, it will be necessary to either reduce the size of the operation or enlarge the lagoon as necessary to get 180 days of temporary storage as, originaly planned for. I have included an operation and maintenance plan with pumping - elevations shown for 120 days temporary storage assuming this -can be done. We did not investigate the soils to determine the potential for seepage into groundwater, although the original soils investigation indicates the lagoon was installed in a soil that would not require a liner. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Dean K. Bingh Supv.

SHEET 1 OF 2 OPERATION AND MAINTFNANCF PLAN This lagoon is designed for waste treatmeot (permanent storage) and 120 days of temporary storage' The time required for the plaened fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 120 days storage for; (1) waste From animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 24 hour storm for the location. The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess rainfallwilI vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available. A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth. 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 o/ leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: 1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not be used for fluFhing after initial filling' 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampl'ing and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. W. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon whex fluid leve,l reaches the elevation 45.3 as marked by permanent marker' Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 43'2 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm' contains 62718 cubic feet or 469129 gallons' SHEET P.

Retain this plan for your use and records. It is strongly recommended that your contractor, and Soil Conservation Service personnel are in agreen as to how the waste lagoon is to be constructed. The Soil Conservatis Service personnel will meet with all concerned parties and walk over site to explain all flags and markings. It is important that everyon, understand what is expected so that final construction meets plans an specification and the job can be certified for payment (if cost-shari is involved). The pad dimensions and grades are the best estimate. The BUILDER or CONTRACTOR is RESPONSIBLE for final layout and design of the pads. T Soil Conservation Service personnel will assist in a limited capacity as its major concern is the proper design and construction of the wa! treatment lagoon. The actual amount of material required for pads and'dam may vary frot estimates. The design will attempt to balance cuts and fills as clo possible. If additional material is required after construction is on the lagoon, the contractor and owner will negotiate on the price location of borrow area.

Metho-is of app I i cat::: i on include honey wa- ( sprayer- or injection) and irrigation (center pivot, guns, a� travelers). Care needs to be taken when applying waste to prevent darnase to crops or runoff frorn the field. The following items are to be carried out: 1. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches it of outlet pipes. ?. Stop pump -out before fluid depth is Iess than 5 feet dei (this prevents the loss of favorable bacteria). The recommended rnax i rnurn amount .to apply per i fir- i gat i on inch, and maxi rnurn recommended app l i cation rate i•s 0.4 inch hour -. ; 4. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be', prechar3ed to 1/+ its capacity to prevent excessive odors -1 startup, Precharsing reduces the concentration of the init waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. SoIids be covered with, effluent at all times. 5. Keep vegetation or, the embank.mer,t: and areas adjacent t+ I a3o-}n mowed. 6. Repair any eroded areas and establish in vegetation, 7. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge- of pollutants into waters of the United States. The DeprartTge Natural Resources and Community Development (DNRC:D) , Waste, Mangement Section, has the responsibility for enforcing the Al I surface rur,C-ff i s to be d iverted frorn the l agoon t adequate outlets.

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. IRR1, IRR2, DRY], DRY2, DRYS, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Sonya Avant of the DWQ staff at (919) 733-5083 ext. 571. Sincerely, Kerr T.

It was observed that irrigation records are not being kept in an appropriate manner as required by the certified animal waste management plan. This is a violation of your certified plan. Also, you stated that you did not wish to plant the crops in your plan and all the acreage shown in the plan. Failure to follow your plan's cropping system is a violation of the plan. NRCS Conservation Practice Standard, Code 633 requires the facility to keep accurate and complete records of waste application events. NRCS Standards require that waste be applied at agronomic rates. Irrigation records in conjunction with a certified animal waste plan are the accepted method for showing such application. Records must be kept on the approved IRR-1 and IRR-2 forms or an equivalent. Records have been kept by you in a ledger in the past showing where and when waste was applied, but no nitrogen balances have been kept. A nitrogen balance is required to show that crops are not being over -applied to which has the potential to contaminate groundwater. The balance will also show applications at an agronomic rate for the crops and soil to fully utilize the nitrogen containing waste applied. A field map or diagram of spray fields will need to be created to show sprinkler locations and a labeling system generated that will stay consistent from year to year. When keeping records the location where waste was applied will need to be shown using this diagram and labeling system. This will show that applications are being made consistently across the entire field. 127 Cardinal Drive Ext., Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Telephone 910-395-3900 FAX 910-350-2004 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled110% post -consumer paper TI � Z 418 221 358 Af/(¢ t� W US Postal Service vReceipt for Certified Mail No Insurance Coverage Provided.

Therefore, I recommend that a new plan be created that will more closely match the amount of acreage needed by your animal operation. This plan will need to be followed to the letter with crops planted regardless of prices. Additional land can be planted if you so desire and this can be added to the narrative of the plan as backup application sites. This additional land will need to have a crop before waste is applied and should be documented like the other fields. Thus, you will need application rates and windows in the plan for the potential crops you may wish to plant or you must contact the technical specialist who has written the plan to send you a letter specifying the rates and windows for the desired crop you wish to plant prior to applying waste. This letter would be a temporary amendment valid for that particular crop cycle for that year only and a new letter obtained for subsequent crops or years. To possibly exempt your facility from a mandatory wetted acres determination, it is recommended that the new plan be written to claim 75 % or less than the total field acreage. I am holding a flagging worksheet to mandate this determination until April 30; 1999. To possibly be exempted, I will need a copy of the new waste plan and a aerial map showing each spray field with the total acreage shown on it sent to me. In the event that it can not be done prior to the date above, have the technical specialist working on the plan contact me directly to set up a new deadline. If you need assistance with addressing these items, please contact your service company or the Pender County Soil & Water district office. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call Dean Hunkele or Brian Wrenn.at 910-395-3900. Subsequent violations of the certified animal waste utilization plan may generate a Notice of Violation and can carry the assessment of a civil penalty. You must notify this office in writing within fourteen (14) days of the receipt of this notice, what actions are being taken to correct these deficiencies. Failure to do so may result in the facility losing its deemed permitted status and being required to obtain an individual non discharge permit. Please be aware it is a violation of North Carolina General Statutes to discharge wastewater to the surface waters of the State without a permit. The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has the authority to levy a civil penalty of not more than $10,000 per day per violation. Sincerely, Dean A.

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. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions concerning this requirement please call Beth Buffington or Bang Huneycutt of our staff at 919/733-0026 Since ly A.

Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director December 9, 1993 Lewis Rooks Rt. 1, Box 1175 B urgaw NC 28425 Dear Mr. Rooks: This is to inform you that your completed registration form required by the recently modified nondischarge rule has been received by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM), Water Quality'Section. On December 10, 1992 the Environmental Management Commission adopted a water quality rule which governs animal waste management systems. The goal of the rule is for animal operations to be managed such that animal waste is not discharged to surface waters of the state. The rule allows animal waste systems to be "deemed permitted" if certain minimum criteria are met (I5A NCAC 2H .0217). By submitting this registration you have met one of the criteria for being deemed permitted. We would like to remind you that existing feedlots which meet the size thresholds listed in the rule, and any new or expanded feedlots constructed between February 1, 1993 and December 31, 1993 must submit a signed certification form to DEM by December 31, 1997. New or expanded feedlots constructed after December 31, 1993 must obtain signed certification before animals are stocked on the farm. Certification of an approved animal waste management plan can be obtained after the Soil and Water Conservation Commission adopts rules later this year. We appreciate you providing us with this information. If you have any question about the new.nondischarge rule, please contact David Harding at (919) 733-5083.
