Actual total 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 Page: 7 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN amounts of nitroqen shown in the tables may make thiq plan invalid. The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Tract —1 Field Soil Type Crop Application Rate (in/hr) Applic.

In no 'instance should the volume of the waste be stored in your structure be within the 25 year 24 hour storm storage or one foot of freeboard except in the event of the 25 year 24 hour storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apPlY the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid. Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to applying 'the waste. NARRATIVE OF OPERATION 4\g. Q cc�tc\r 'k �\e Q Ck vc� I n jc- age 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. Page: 10 "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.

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. Page: 11 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS Q 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. 23.

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. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-73-3-5083 FAX 919-715-6M An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycledt 10% post -consumer paper Certificate of Coverage AWS820448 Whitfield Livestock #1 Page 2 Upon notification by the Division of this COC's expiration, you shall apply for its renewal.

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 A— , — --4 -- —1 --4- 4 -- — — — — — �P — — — — — — - — — — 1-4 -- -3 — — — — — — - %ACX y .3 P.L -L %�o � L� %.J kJ.L CX I L t- -L I I �J C& --i.

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.

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 Page: 7 ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters ot the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be 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. I 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste 'should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on cQfiventionally tilled cropland. when applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9.

Irrigation Parameters October 1995 page-1 - USDA-NRCS North Carolina Sy�'erti C-alibration 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.

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 M1FCt 21C^ko- rprnr ing yoUr rainfall fnr thic tn wnriel 1(nriwino 0iir chmilel lipin in d-0 planning irrigation applications and storage.

A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological activity. Consultation with a technical specialist is recommended if these conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season. Loading: The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a iag000, the better the 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.

If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a closure p.an to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge. C;NiAvP Ramnual- 0- ­'­ - -.. 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.
