Acres shown in each of -the preceding tables are considered to be the

acres in -the fields listed may, arid most likely will be, more than t1ie
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 agronoM4 c 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 444 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2220
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 7.4 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125.pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 17.76 acres
of land- Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requiremenUs could vary by 252; depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
inethods.
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 inoisture 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 irrigaLion nor shoul:d 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 irrigaLion designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate tile acres
shown in Tables I and'2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

amounts of nitroqen shown in the tables may make thiq plan invalid.

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
provi
ide 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 Lhe responsibility of the owner of the
facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when
there is a- rhange J n the clperaiLiO� incre_a__= in the number of
animals, method of utilization, or available land.
3. Animal waste shall be app,lied 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 i,�iay 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 b-,;, 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 coLventionally 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 CliuiaLe in North Carolinall for guidance.)
V. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not Lo exceed the soil
infilf-rAt--ion rate such that runoff does not occur offsite 0- to
surface waters and in a inethod 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 Lhe surface is frozc-�n.
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.

"PLAN
WA�TE" UTILIZATION
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 u- relleascal nut- r 4 ents. Waste shall not 'me applied moit:
k, _L %_ ky
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 U_LL ILJL U.L UaIICLI. waste U-LheE T-flall
swine waste from faciiiLies 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
w1ells.
13. Animal,'waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of
dwe.11i'ngs other than those owned by the landowner.
14. Wa ste 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 providf-!d
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 into water courses,
and on other grass ' e - d waterways, waste shall.be applied at
agronomic rates in . a manner -',-that causes no runoff or drift from
the site.
16- Domestic and industrial wa�te from wa'shdown facilities,
showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the
animal waste management system.
17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be
established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms,
pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs,'and
other woody species, etc., are limited to areas where considered
appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible.
Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence
of erosion, leakage or discharge.

18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or
terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
oimplementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
19,. Waste handlinq 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 elev�tions 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�"r�'equired to mark the maximum storage volume for waste
stor.age 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. Nit:rogen shall be the rate - determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be
monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these
metals , approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum -crop production and maintained. Soil and waste
analysis records shall be kept for five years. Poultry dry
waste application rprords shall be malntain�=rl for three 1-41
years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be
maintained for five (5) years.

Attached is a list of the facilities in your respective regions that have been selected to receive
notification letters advising them that they have been flagged or pended for the month of March.
Each facility will be given written notice via certified mail. The notice will include a copy of the
certification form and a deadline for response.
I will also be sending copies of the final monthly list of selected facilities to the Division of Soil
and Water Conservation Operation Reviewers and Soil Water Conservation District Offices each
month along with an updated copy of all facilities in that county that have been either flagged or
pended. This will hopefully enable the Districts to be better able to schedule their workloads.

A letter dated January 15, 1999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Mana2ement Plans and the method bv which the irrivated acres within the nlans were calculated- Onlv
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 Trent Allen on 4/29/99 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:
El The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Trent Allen the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Trent Allen, at 225 Green Street, Suite
714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact Trent Allen at (910) 486-1541. If within 90 days you are unable
to provide Trent Allen with the information you are automatically required to complete
a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within 180 days
of receipt of this letter.

In accordance with your application received on September 24, 1999, we. are forwarding this Certificate
of Coverage (COC) issued to Richard Whitfield, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste
collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit
AWG100000. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to,
the management of animal waste from the Whitfield Livestock #1, located in Sampson County, with an
animal capacity of no greater than 1200 Feeder to Finish and the application to land as specified in the
Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP).

are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Perrrflit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any increase in waste production greater than
the certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require, a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
The facility's CAWMP meets all requirements in place at the time of certification- However, it appears
that the irri'gadon system on site may not adequately cover all acreage listed in the Waste Utilization
Plan. The owner should address this inconsistency as soon as possible.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General
Permit or the CAWMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS
143-215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.

ANIAAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Producer: RICHARD WHITFIELD
Location: 1670 KENAN WEEKS RD.
NEWTON GROVE NC 28366
Telephone: (910)594-1357
Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine
Number of Animals: 1200.00 hogs
(Deigign 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 utilizb.
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.
Page: 1
ANIMAL WXSTE 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

injecting t he waste or di sking wi 11 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.)
1200 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 2280 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
1200 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 2760 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.

Acres shown in each of -the preceding tables are considered to be the
usable acres excluding required buffers, filter strips alonq 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. ine sludge will be nutr1C11L
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 444 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludae.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2220
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 7.4 acres of land. if you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 125 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 17.76 acres
of land. Please be aware that these are only estimates of the PAN and
land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This
rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount
should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan,
it is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and

information presented.in manufacturer's charts are based on average uperattion
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and -application ra*
change over time as equipment ge*5 older and components wear. In particular,
pump wear tends to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use,
nozzle wear reSLJ!t.5 an -in the o.P.ening -.hich will increase the
discharge rate while decreasing the wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the System differently than a55Umed in the
design will alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the
application uniformily. For example, opem!ing the system with excessive pressure
results i� smaller droplets, greater potontial for drift, and accelerates wear of the
sprinkler nozzle, Clogging or nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged
intakes or crystaflizatior. of mainlines will reduce operating pressure. Operating
below design pressure greati* reduces the coverage diameter and application
y
uniformity.
For the above.reason, you sFould calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to
ensure proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least ' once every
three years is recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at
several locations in the application area. Any number of containers c�n be used to
collect flow and determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because
they already have a graduated scate from which to read the application amount
without having to perform additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets,
jars, or anything with a uniform opaning and cross-section can be used provided
aL- ;A
the ililqul" collected can be ea5ily transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
Fod stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly
throughout the application area at several distances from sprinklers. F(,.r traveling

guns, sprinklers should be located along a transect perpendicul.ar

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon liquid management should be a Year-round priority. It I& ea I'
important to manage levels so that you do not liave proble* dUiing exrWded rainy and
wet periods. ms
Max.imum storage capacity should be available In the lagoon for periods when the
receiving crop is clormant.(such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are
extended rainy spells such as the thunderstorm sea -son in the summertime. This means
that at the first signs of plant growth in the later winter/early spring, irrigation according to
a farm waste management plan should be done whenever the land is dry enough to
receive laizoon liquid. This will make storage sparp av;;il:;hip in the lapoon fnr fiitili-C. wczt
periods. Fn the laie summer/early fall the la'joo�-sho-uld-b-e- pu in- p_.e. d- -d-o'w--n 'to-t-he- Io-w-
marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste
utilization plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage, capacity before starting to
irrigate does not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods.
Overflow from the lagoon for any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a violation of
state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
Maintenance of a vegetative cove� for the dam.
Fescue or common bermudagrass'are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilizer applied should be
based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas
should be fertilized with 800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or
equivalent.
Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
these practices. This should be done at least once a year and
possibly twice in years that weather conditions are favorable for
heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE- If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter
the lagoon water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating
the waste.
Maintenance in5p6dions of the entire lagoon should bo made during the initial filling of
the lagoon and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be
checked should include, as a minimum, the following:
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes --look for:
I - separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3. accumulation of salts or minerals
-4. overall condition of pipes
Lagc�(l SUrface—look for:
I - undesirable vegetative growth
2. 1 floating or lodged debris
Emb��n�ment—look for:
1. �settlement, cracking, or "jug" holes
2. side slope stability —slumps or bulges
3. we[ or damp areas on the back slope
-4. �rosion due to lack of vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
i
Larger laloons, may,be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds. Ihese waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of veg�etation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sfdewall, baffles in'the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave irnpacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakenirrgof the dam. if your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons. You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a threat
of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
L
lechnical expert. Any digging into -a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expeq.
Transfer Pumps --check for proper operation of-
1 . recycling pumps
2. Irrigation pumps
Che& for leaks, I oose fittings, and overal I pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or -a large amount of vibration,- may indicate that the pump is in need or repair or
replacement.
NOTE: Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that you
are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure. You should perform your pumping
system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at Its low level. This will allow some
safety time should major repiirs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is not the time
to think about switching, repairing , or borrowing pumps- Probably, if your lagoon is full,
your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You shou!d consider ma--tWining an inventory 01 spare
parts or pumps.
Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface
drainage waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets,
J
anu parkinglot runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste
treatment or storagp structures. The only water that should be
coming from your lagoon is that which comes from your flushing
(washing) system pipes and the rainfall that hits the lagoon directly.
You should inspect your diversion system for the following:
1 . adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3.J ridge. ber"i height
identified problems should be corrected promptly. it is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain. If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts.
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
rec6rd the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there Is no purnping).' This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount

lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon 5everAl times daily are
optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are drained
and recharged Pach day, also work well.

Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by:
proper lagoon sizing, i
mechanical ;nlidr. sanaraiion of flushed
gravity settling of flushe waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
minimizing feed wastage"a',nd spillage.
Lagoon sludge that is removed ann uatlytl rather than stored long term will:
have more nutrients,
have more odor, and I
require more land to properly use the nutrients.
Removal techniques:
Hire a custom applicator.
Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeJler
purinp through large -bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland;
and soil incorporate.
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or
forageland; mix remainin sludge; pump into liquid sludge' applicator; haul
and spread onto croplanYor forageland; and soil incorporate.
I
Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigatfori onto nearby cropland or
forageland; dredge sludge from lagoon with &agline or sludge barge; berm
an area beside lagoon to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back
into lagoon; allow sludge to dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader
onto cropland or forageland; and soil incorporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previoutwaste applications to that field and crop
-requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 1
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage. Close
attention by the pumper or drag -line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner remains
intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you should
stop the activity -immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can be
removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible. I
5ludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal'content
th2n liquid, Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus
and metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of
erosion. Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil -test phosphores, it
should be applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other
wastes, always have your lag6on sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The applicat-ion of sludge will increase tHe amountof odor at the waste appiication site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbom
Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Upon failures result in the'unplanned discharge of wastewater fro n the structu"re. Types
of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of the
dam. A55UMing proper design and construction, the owner has the respon5ibilipty for
ensuring structure safiaty. items which. may, lead 'to lagoon fra-ilures include:
Modification of the lagoon structure —an example is the placement of a pipe
in the dam without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in
lagoon design before placing any pipes in dams.)
Lagoon liquid levels —high levels are a safety risk.
Failur6_to inspect and maintain the dam.
Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
Liner integrity —protect from inlet pipe scourin�, damage during sludge
removal, of -rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level elow groundwater
table.
NOTE, If lagoon water is allowed t6 overtop the dam, the m6vingLwater will'soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. once this damage starts, it can qu'ickly cause a large discharge
of wastewater and possible dam failure.
