C. General Statutes 143-215 et seq. and Section 402 of the Clean Water Act, you have been found to be in violation of your NPDES Permit. Violation 1: Failure to maintain waste levels in your waste structure(s) in accordance with the facilities Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. (Permit No. NCA2000000 Section V 3.) On 01/23/2007 waste structure liquid levels were documented at 17 inches of freeboard at lagoon 3510. A level of 19 inches is the maximum level allowed by your permit. Subsequent to the reported high freeboard the Division of Water Quality requested record documentation to assess the overall management of the waste system. Correct application of Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) is a major component of your nutrient management plan. According to a review of your records, only about 44 % of your PAN was applied during 2006-2007 complete crop cycles, including 33% of corn PAN and 20% of soybean PAN. Inadequate management of the nutrient management plan contributed to high lagoon levels, compounded by high rainfalls. Required Corrective Action for Violation 1: At this time, the incident is closed. The Division strongly recommends that you review your facilities and procedures with the goal of eliminating future high freeboards, which could lead to mandatory review of your Waste Utilization Plan by a Technical Specialist, Notices of Violation or civil penalties in the future if freeboard noncompliance remains an issue.

The basis of the NOV was a documented, self - reported, freeboard level of 17" on January 23, 2007. Based on my reading of the letter, the Division has determined that the freeboard non-compliance was due to inadequate management of the CAWMP rather than chronic rainfall. I would ask that the Division reconsider this position based on the following and attached information. As noted in the Notice, there is no question that the chronic rainfall threshold was met in the case of this farm, with 45.2", or almost the total yearly rainfall, being recorded in the 7 months leading up to the freeboard issue. Obviously, this amount of rainfall makes lagoon management more challenging than normal. However, based on a thorough review of the relevant pumping, freeboard, and rainfall records for Farm #10, 1 must disagree with the assertion that mismanagement of the waste treatment system on this farm contributed to the freeboard levels experienced. I ask that the Division review in detail the 2006 Daily Rainfall Record attached. I have highlighted all days between January 2006 and March 2007 that pumping events were recorded. Please note that a review of the actual pumping records (previously submitted) reveals that on many of these days, multiple pumping events occurred, with some days having as high as 7 events. During this review, it is critical that one understand the site specific soil conditions of Farm #10 and how these conditions relate to irrigation return interval after rainfall events. Irrigation return interval can be defined as the period of time it takes for soil moisture on a farm to reach field capacity (the point at which pore space is available for irrigated effluent), after being fully saturated (no water holding capacity / pore space). This parameter is used in all of Murphy -Brown's irrigation capacity reviews. The soil types on Farm #10 are highly productive from an agronomic standpoint, but are moderately to poorly -drained, which can complicate land application activities during chronic rainfall periods. Generally, the return interval after rainfall events is longer than would be seen on sandier soil materials. This effect is magnified during winter months when freezing temperatures and low evaporation rates are the rule. While it is impossible to recreate actual soil conditions on every day during this period, if one looks at the rainfall and application pattern as highlighted, a clear pattern reflecting the return interval emerges. Without going into exhaustive commentary, please follow me through the period of June July 2006 on the Daily Rainfall record sheet as an example of the evaluation explained above. Farm #10 experienced .94" of rainfall between May 15 and 20, followed by another .30" on May 26. Four days later, on June I and 2, irrigation events occurred. Between the dates of June 3 and June 15, rainfall occurred on all but two days, followed by no rainfall for 5 days, and .34" of rainfall on June 20. Irrigation occurred on June 21, 23, and 24, on all of the driest pulls prior to an additional 2+" of rainfall in the period between Jun 26 and 29. My analysis of the pumping records shows that the irrigation events occurring during June were limited to the most well drained irrigation zones due to the frequency of the rainfall events, and had to be halted on June 22, and 25 due to saturated soil conditions resulting from previous irrigation events. The rainfall and evaporation pattern in June led to a 4 day return interval on average for the month. In July, rainfall events were more sporadic, and the evaporation rates higher, leading to a 2 to 3 day return interval, and increased pumping activity. July's efforts resulted in a freeboard reading of 36", or 76.92% of available white freeboard on August 5, 2006. This compares favorably to the 88% of available white freeboard on August 1, 2005, despite the above average rainfall experienced. I feel that a month -by -month review of the data will show that irrigation events occurred on almost every available pumping day when return interval is considered. In your Notice letter, it is communicated that 44%, 33%, and 20% of available Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) was applied to the wheat, corn, and soybean crop respectively in 2006. While these numbers are factually correct, I would submit to you that they are irrelevant to the freeboard compliance discussion for this farm. Farm #10 has 123.54 irrigated acres, with a total crop PAN requirement of 36,791.02 pounds. During the last three years (2004-2006), this farm has averaged applying 11,702 lbs. pounds, or 31.8% of available PAN per year. This number, however, is more indicative of lagoon performance, as evidenced by lagoon analysis records, water usage, and excess land, than it is an indicator of poor management. In the Murphy -Brown system, one will consistently find 2 to 3 times more land than is needed from a PAN standpoint, particularly on wetter sites, as the management of plans is geared more to hydraulic than nutrient balances. I feel a review of available pumping days versus actual pumping days provides a much clearer picture of management efficiency in this case. I am sure the Division is more than capable of following my logic in this evaluation, and I ask that the data submitted be reviewed in this light. I feel that developing a sense of appreciation for the hydraulic balance of this farm, particularly in light of the chronic rainfall event experienced in 2006, and applying it to your review, will result in an appreciation of the level of management that was applied to this issue. Murphy -Brown is committed to, and I believe has demonstrated, that it will make every effort to manage in a proactive manner the freeboard levels on our farms. In 2006, approximately $25,000 was spent on Farm #10 to improve the drainage, and decrease the irrigation return interval as described above. We feel these efforts were successful, and we will continue to look for opportunities to further improve the system on this farm. However, the goal and practice of continued improvement, as required by Murphy - Brown's ISO14001 Certified EMS, is not always tied to deficiencies in management. We feel that every reasonable effort was made to manage the freeboard of Farm #10 within the guidelines of the farms NPDES permit, but these efforts fell short due to the chronic rainfall period experienced. I once again ask far r onsi ation of the NOV issued to Farm #10. If there are additional questions, or aWional ' formation is needed, please contact me at (910) 293 5330.

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 8 MB00107030257 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. 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 u&zation 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 definateiy 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 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.

See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of animal waste. 4 of 8 MB00107030261 SLUDGE APPLICATION: The following table describes the annual nitrogen accumulation rate per animal in the lagoon sludge Farm Specifications PAN/ r/animat Farm Totall r Farrow to Wean 0.84 Farrow to Feeder 1 1200 Farrow to Finish 4.1 4920 Wean to Feeder 0.072 Feeder to Finish 0.36 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 4920 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 24600 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 82 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 196.8 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 properly 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 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 M800107030262 Application Rate Guide The following is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

If this option is utilized, the times and rates to apply are listed on page _ 3(b) of this plan. When wheat follows cam, the rate for wheat is increased by 15 IbsNlac. This is due to the residual N from the soybeans being deducted from the cam.

Regards, Todd Rowe, CCA Agronomist Murphy -Brown, LLC CAWMP AMENDMENT Farm 3510 6/23/03 This amendment is intended to provide additional Nitrogen to the com crop. Tissue analysis was conducted on the corn crop on June 16, 2003. The results of this analysis indicated the plants to be low in Nitrogen. Upon evaluation of the tissue sample results and the crop that is planted, it is found that additional Nitrogen is required for the corn crop. The additional Nitrogen is mainly due to the wet weather conditions that have been seen so far this growing season. Several processes have caused Nitrogen to be lost from the soil and restricted uptake by the plant. This additional Nitrogen is for supplementation of the required PAN in the waste management plan.

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, DRYI, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLDI, 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.

Farm # 10 PO Box 759 Rose Hill NC 28458 Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. AWS820442 Farm # 10 Swine Waste Collection, Treatment, Storage and Application System Sampson County Dear Brown's of Carolina, Inc.: On April 28, 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 733 which directs the Division of Water Quality (Division) to extend the expiration date of the Swine Waste Operation General Permit AWG100000. Therefore, the General Permit has been re -issued by the Division to extend the expiration date to October 1, 2004. During the period of this extension the Division will be working with all interested parties on the development of a new version of the Non -Discharge General Permit. In accordance with your application received on February 13, 2003 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Brown's of Carolina, Inc., authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWGI00000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS820442 which expired on April 30, 2003. This approval'shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Farm #10, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 1200 Farrow 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 October 1, 2004: 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. 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 to under this t convey rortv rights in either real or personal Rrol2erty.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the Melds 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: 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 ions 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 8 P,Q0119210077 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. 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 fleiable 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 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 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 4920 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 24600 pounds of plant available -nitrogen to-utflize Assuming-you-appiy'this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass-tiayla fd at'the ---- rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 82 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 196 8 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 properly 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 sterage 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 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.

Jun-S S-ApA Mar -,duly This nutrient management plan has been specifically developed for this swine operation. The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of applicdation for this 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 ammount 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 this nutrient management plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environment- ally 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 five tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on to 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. 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 depending upon the waste analysis report for your waste management facility.
