No.: 82-469 Farrow to Wean Farrow to Feeder Farrow to Finish Wean to Feeder Feeder to Finish 6966 Storage Period: Application Method: Anaerobic Lagoon >180 days Irrigation __The waste fromyour 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 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 DWQ regulations. 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. 1 of 11 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 tits animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of 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 specriic 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.

LAND U711.12AT10N SUMMARY The following table describes the nutrient balance and land utilization rate for this facility Note that the Nitrogen Balance for Crops indicates the ratio of the amount of nitrogen produced on this facility to the amount of nitrogen that the crops under irrigation may uptake and utilize in the normal growing season. Total Irrigated Acreage: 77.29 Total N Required 1st Year. 1866828 Total N Required 2nd Year: 0 Average Annual Nitrogen Requirement of Crops: 18,668.2.8 Total Niitirageri Produced by Farm: 16,021.80 Nitrogen Balance for Crops: (2,64b.48) The following table describes the specifications of the hydrants and fields that contain the crops designated for utilization of the nitrogen produced on this facility. This chart describes the size, soil characteristics, and uptake rate for each crop in the specified crop rotation schedule for this facility. 2of11 Reception Area Specifications ©� ■0n®��Nrrw©�aoO��MO��� ■moo■�[���®��� ©�'no�■�m® OFT 9ME 3(a) of 11 � ��■�� �� �� � �� �� ■ram ����� �� �� � �� � �� �■ 3(b) of 11 This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before Heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is [ate September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. 4 of 11 SLUDGE APPLICATION: The following table describes the annual nitrogen accumulation rate per animal in the lagoon sludge Farm Specifications EAWydanimal Farm f Farrow to Wean 0.84 Farrow to Feeder 1 Farrow to Finish 4.1 Wean to Feeder 0.072 6966 Feeder to Finish 0.36 2507.76 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 2507.76 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximatety 12538.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 41 acreas of land_ If you apply the sludge to oom at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 100.3104 acres of land. Please node that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific; application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION: The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rage 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 lime 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 property irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. *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 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste 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 property to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. 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 prior to applying the waste_ 5 of 11 Application Rate Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. soil Applicatlon Rate Application Amount ^ Tract Hydrant Type Crop ivdhr * Inches T7642 1 Wagram B(C 0.6 1 T7642 2 Wagram B/C 0.6 1 T7642 3 Wagram B/C 0.6 1 T7642 4 Wagram BIC 0.6 1 T7642 5 Wagrarn B/C 0.6 1 T7642 6 Wagram B(C 0.6 1 T7642 7 Wagram BIC 0.6 1 T7642 a Wagram BIC 0.6 1 T7642 9 Wagram B/C 0.6 1 T7642 10 Wagrarn B/C 0.6 1 T7642 11 Wagram BIC 0.6 1 T7642 Subi-4 Wagram B/C 0.6 1 T7642 Subs Wagram B/C 0.6 1 T7642 Sub6-11 Wagram B(C 0.6 1 T7642 532 Rains D 0.4 1 Optional Crol T7642 532 Rains N 0.4 1 T7642 532 Rains O 0.4 1 6 of 11 Additional Comments: This plan revised to reflect wetted acres.

Signature: -z 8 of 11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 property 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. ft is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, recieving 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 fitter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 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 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 ftooding (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. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the 9 of 11 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. Wastelnutrient 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. 1 f 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 than 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 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. 16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. 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 soil 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 a minimum of five years. 23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

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 DWO regulations_ 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. RECENEW DENR 1 dWa 1 of 8 AQLIIFPR-PRnTP(71nN SFCTION APR 0 9 9nn4 This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. if you choose to change methods in the fixture, 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_ 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.

The farm should produce adequate plant available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above. The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements. In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), forage must be removed through grazing, hay, and/or silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain, etc, is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain reach maturity, especially late in the season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately interfere with stand of bermudagrass. This foss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of about two inches before drilling for best results.

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 2507.76 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above. If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 12538.8 pounds of plant available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 41 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 100.3104 acres of land. Please note that these are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal. 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 property irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid_ '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 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of the waste stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one fool 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 the tables. 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 prior to applying the waste. 5of8 Application Rate Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

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 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 Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, recievinq crop type, or available land. 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). 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 land application field. B 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). Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. 8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 1 of 3 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. Wastelnutrient 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 than 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 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. 16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 2of3 NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 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. 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 soil 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 a minimum of five years. 23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations. 3of3 Q� W A T TL t r y Michael F.

As you know, the previous compliance limit was to have a minimum of four (4) feet of treatment depth between the designed stop pump and the average elevation of the top of the sludge blanket. This requirement was based on NRCS Standard No. 359, which was recently modified. As of July 2008, Standard No. 359 does not use the 4-foot requirement. Sludge compliance is now to be based on the sludge volume as a percentage of the total treatment volume. The revised Standard states that sludge accumulation in the permanent treatment zone must be less than 50% of the planned treatment volume. Also, there must be a minimum of 2.5 feet of liquid above the sludge at the pump intake location. if either of these conditions is not met then sludge must be removed or managed in accordance with an approved Plan of Action for Lagoon Sludge Reduction (POA). A new sludge survey worksheet has been developed to calculate sludge and treatment volumes to determine compliance. Our records indicate that you have filed a Sludge POA for one or more of the lagoons at your facility. Based on the changes to the sludge requirements in Standard No. 359, your lagoon(s) may already be in compliance without any sludge removal. Using your lagoon design (or as - built information) and current sludge survey measurements, complete the NEW sludge survey worksheet. If you have any difficulty in locating or understanding your lagoon design information, please contact your technical specialist or county Soil & Water office. � NCarolina ;1�latura!!y Aquifer Protection section 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1636 Telephone: (919) 733-3221 Internet: www_ncwaterrQuaHl,!.

PLAT addresses four potential loss pathways: leaching, erosion, runoff and direct movement of waste over the surface. Each field must be individually evaluated and rated as either low, medium, high or very high according to its Phosphorus loss potential. The ratings for your farm must be reported to DWQ using the attached certification form. The PLAT forms must be kept as records on your farm for future reference.

Sox 856 Warsaw, NC 28398 SUBJECT: Receipt of Completed Lagoon "As Built" Surveys Brown's of Carolina Farms #2526, 2187, 2537, and 2106 Sampson County Dear tits_ Williamson: William G. Ross Jr., Secretary Gregory J. Thorpe, Ph.D. Acting Director Division of Water Quality The Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality has received the completed lagoon "as built" surveys for fames n2526, 2187, and 2537 and the original lagoon design for farm #2106. The submitted documentation was reviewed by DWQ staff and staff from the Division of Soil and Water. No discrepancies to applicable MRCS standards were noted for the lagoon information. It was noted that the ne�v WUP for farm #2526 was written for 1,802 farrow to feeder hogs instead of the soon to be peninned 1.000 farrow to feeder and I100 feeder to finish hogs. The narrative for the plan explains that the steady state live weight is the same for both configurations. However, waste generation calculations, in pounds of P.A.N. show a 1,491 pounds deference between the two configurations. The Division of Water Quality is requesting that a new WUP be written and submitted to the central and regional offices wine the soon to be permitted 1,000 farrow to feeder and 3.100 feeder to finish hogs to calculate the waste generation. Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving; this facility of the responsibility and liability of any violations that have resulted or may result from these actions. if you require additional information in this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me at (910) 486-1541.

The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops 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 and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. Page 2 The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis report for your waste management facility.

The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system. The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 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 rainfall will 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 or leaching.,}';. kr; 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 flushing after initial filling. 2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 3. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 0.0 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 0.0 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- 24 hr storm, contains 0 cubic feet or 0 gallons. SHEET 2 OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3 inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. 6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and establish in vegetation. 7. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable outlets. a. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around _waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in'open ditches. -Do not.pump within 200 feet of a ..residence or within 100 feet of a well. -Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. - §:`=.•S 1 - tip,.
