County:Sampson Name of Far -m- : PK -9 Location -----:P O Box 438 Clinton NC 28329 Phone --------:910-592-5771 Type Operation-------------:Far-Feed Number of Animal ----------- : 624 + 710 Gilt Isolation Storage Structure ---------- :Anaerobic Lagoon Method of application ------ :Irrigation Amount of waste produced per year --------------- 7382 ton$/year Amount of plant available N (PAN) produced/year-: 6271 lbs./year 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 use to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner: 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but leas than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter. strips are established. 4. Do -not apply waste on saturated aoila, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters which is not allowed under DW9 regulations. 5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the-v.alue of the'nutrienta for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for -thin type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility.:In some.caaea you may want to have Page 2 ` 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 the 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.

You should plan . time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. page 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 bermudagrass), 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, its to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the Beason (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 time small grain is planted in the fell. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, is late September or early October-. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for beat results. Caution must be exercised in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate.poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers , filter strips along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitationa. Actual total acres in the field 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 provision 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 624 -lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5.years, you will have.approximately 3120 lbs. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagraga hayland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you will need 10 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you will need 25 acres of lend. 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. Page 4 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 aize, 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 needa of the crop. If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this pian, 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. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may make this plan invalid. The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Tract Field Soil Crop Applic Applic No. No. Type Rate Amount ------ ------ ------ (in/hr) ------ ------ (inches) ----/-- CJD &C -.J4 U 10 651_ 2 g 900 3sr' d a- '75 . 6S 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. Page 5 _ 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 instances 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 reaponaibility 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 rate prior to applying the waste.

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 was:.e, 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 anolication. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrocen needs for realistic crop vields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless them are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acrd per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runof= leaves the field. (See FOTG Standard 393 -Filter Strip) 5. ©dors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the annlication 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 dri=t from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the cro*o is not covered with waste to a denth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 10. Waste nutrients- shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy_ 11.

Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharges directly inton water courses, and. on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 15. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other wocdv species, etc., are limited to areas where considered appro_nriat=. -Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and s_ructures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, le-skage or discharge. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended .or terminated, the owner is responsible for ohtaining 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 s_Dills. 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 too 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.

The time required for the planned fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to he reached may vary due to site conditions, weather, fleshing 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 eguiprrlent in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognised 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. Fre-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 utilisation plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. 73. Begin temporary storage pump -out of- the -lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 48.3 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump - out when the fluid level reaches elevation 46..? This temporary storage, less 25 yr-- :24 hr storm, contains 77:394 cubic feet or 578908 gallons. SHEET ^ OF 2 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one ( 1 ) inch end 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. S. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in ripen 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 ether property and public right-of-ways. 9. The Glean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ- mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

Wetland determination may be incomplete in wooded areas and unnumbered fields. Before clearing, draining or altering these areas for any use, contact ASCS and complete a new Form AD -1026. Failure to do so could result in loss of eligibility for USDA benefits for all the land you farm. Each field has a symbol on it which represents its classification. The following symbols apply to your farm: W - Wetlands --clearing, draining or altering these areas to make possible the planting of a commodity crop will result in wetland conversion which would make you ineligible for most USDA programs. W - Inclusions --these soils are predominantly non -hydric but may have inclusions of hydric soils. If you plan to clear in these areas please call the SCS office at 592-7963 to request a field determination. It may be necessary for you to provide cleared -right- of-ways in order to flag wet areas. PC - Prior Converted Wetlands --can be cropped and are not affected by the wetland conservation provisions as long as the field is not abandoned (not cropped for 5 successive years). CW - Converted Wetlands ---areas of hydric soils that do not have a cropping history between 1981-1985 and/or were converted since December 23, 1985. Growing annually planted crops on this land will result in a loss of USDA program benefits. -If this land was cropped between 1981-1985, you must establish a crop history with ASCS to remain eligible for USDA program benefits. CWNA - Converted Wetland--Nan-Agricultural Use -Wetlands converted after Nov. 28, 1990 for non-agricultural purposes. These tracts will be reviewed annually and will lose their exemption if the non- agricultural activity fails or land becomes idle. NW - Not Wetland --areas that do not contain wetland. N - Not Wetland --or-- Highly Erodible We have made every effort to make this determination as fair as possible, but if you feel the determination is incorrect, you have the right to appeal... The appeal must be in writing and must state the reasons why, you believe your fields have been incorrectly determined. The appeal must be made within 15 days. of receipt -of this determination. nnSincerely, yy C.

Dig a auall Ruap or ditch to catch all seepage, put in a submersible pump, and pump buck into lagoon. b. If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holds and compact with a clay type soil. c. Have a professional evaluate the condition of the aids wells and the lagoon bottom as soon an possible. 2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages. a. Did the waste react: any surface waters? b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration? c. Any damage noted* Ruch as employee injury, fish killer, or property damage? d. Did the spill leave the property? e. Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters? f. Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters? g.

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be use 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 analyLed 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 ensures- 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 potent.iala, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per ,acre per year. Waste may be applied to lana eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than 10 tons per acne 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 in runoff to the surface- waters which is not allowed under DWO regulations. S. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoild drift and downwind odor problems. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential .for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste ,application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this. plan. Nutrient levels for diiiarent 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 requir-emants should he based on the waste anealyais report from r your wast.r ,nan..a��»�E�•=nt. 1.�3C:i ity. in some cases you may want. to have Page 2 plant analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied. provisions shall be made for the area receiving waate to be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and the 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.

You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Page 3 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 pian only addresses nitrogen_ In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagrass), 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 to let small grain, to reach maturity, especially late in the aeaaon (i.e. April or May). Shacking may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudegrass. 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 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 mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for beet results. c"aut.ion roust be exercised in grazing or Baying summer annuals under atressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay fur- nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffers , filter strips along ditches, odd •areaa unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areas not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field 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 61 animal waste. SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and »iii require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 524 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 yearn, you will have approximately 2621 lbs. of PAN to utilize. aasuming y+Du apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagras,s havland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen per, acre, you will need 9 acres of land. If you apply the aludge to corn at the rate of :125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you will need 21 _,Tres of land. Please be aware that these are only r-stimat.-_s. of the PAN and land needed.

Page 4 APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application Late should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation such that runoff or ponding occurs. This Late is limited by initial soil moisture content, sail 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. Failure to apply the recommended rates and ,amounts of nitrogen shown in the table may make this plan invalid.

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 then 30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waate or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change methods in the future, yoLi 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 the future, regulationa may require farmers in some parts of Forth Carolina to have a nutrient waaagemant plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addreaaea nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermudagraaa), forage roust be removed through grazing, hey end/or ailege. Where gracing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of aiu to nine inches. Cattle ethould be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain etc, is tea he removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to to let small grain to reach maturity, especially late in the aeasan (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets tots high and this will definitely interfere with stand of bermudegreas. Thia lona of stand will result in reduced yields and leas nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or allege juat before heading as is the normal actuation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to consider- harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the sesaon, depending an time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small gratin, etc, is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagr•aaa should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two i,nchea before drilling for beat results. Caution must be exerciaed in grazing or haying summer annuals under stressed conditions. Nitrate poisoning may occur in livestock. Sampling forage or hay for nitrate levels is recommended. Acres shown in the tables are considered to be the usable acres excluding required buffera , filter atripa along ditches, odd areas unable to be irrigated, and perimeter areae not receiving full application rates due to equipment limitations. Actual total acres in the field liaced may, and moat 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 weste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic land application of aludgm aL egrvtrc»aic rates. The aludge will he: nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce approximately 524 lbs. of plant available nitrogen, per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2521 lba. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid barmudsgraas hayland at the rate of 300 lbs_ of nitroge-n per acre, you will need 9 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lba. of nitrogen per acre, you will need 21 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only eatimatea of the PAN and land needed.

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 the implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. - 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at S 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 in runoff to the 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 crops 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.

SLUDGE APPLICATION: The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements_ Your production facility will produce approximately 1228 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every S years you will have approximately 6140 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 20 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 49 acres of land. Please be aware that these are only estmates of the PAN and the land needed. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on the sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and application methods.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION P-9 /w Isolation Page b WAM 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. 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 waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4. Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less than 10 tons per acre per year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG standard 393 - Filter Strip). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate that runoff does not occur offsite or to the surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies. 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potentual for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residenriai property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal.

Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by he landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. is. 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 wetlands provided they 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, toiiets,.sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegtation 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 evidences 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 illigal 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 vegetation 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 the bottom elevations of the temporarystorage (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.

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.

JAN 2.4 2006 nmR • FAYEMLLf REG10Nk0FRGE Subject: Notification for Phosphorus Lass Assessment P-9 w/ Isolation Permit Number NCA282513 Facility 82-513 Sampson County Dear Prestage Farms, There is a condition in your recently issued'Animal Waste Management General NPDES Permit. addressing phosphorous loss standards. The permit condition quoted below states that ifthe state or federal government establishes phosphorus loss standards your facility must conduct an evaluation within 180 days. The Federal Natural Resources Conservation Service has now established this standard. A computer-based program was developed to determine how much phosphorus was being lost from. different fields. Instructions on how to comply with this requirement are provided below. In accordance with your NPDES Permit Number NCA282513 Condition "1.6, your facility must now conduct a Phosphorus Loss Assessment. Condition 1.6 states_ "If prior to the expiration date of this permit either the state or federal government establishes Phosphorus loss standards that are applicable to land application activities at a facility operating under this permit, the Permittee must conduct an evaluation of the facility and its CAWMP under the requirements of the Phosphorus loss standards to determine the facility's ability to comply with the standards. This evaluation must be documented on forms supplied or approved by the Division and must be submitted to the Division. This evaluation must be completed by existing facilities within six (6) months of receiving notification from the Division. Once Phosphorus loss standards are established by the state or federal government that are applicable to facilities applying to operate under this permit, no Certificate of Coverage will be . issued to any new or expanding facility to operate under this permit until the applicant demonstrates that the new or expanding facility can comply with these standards.". The method of evaluation is the Phosphorous Loss Assessment Tool (PLAT) developed by NC State University and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. 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 .: No Carolina f11r,71'1./ Aquifer Protection Section 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1636 Phone (919) 733-3221 Internet, httpJ/h2o.cnr.state.nc.us 2728 Capital Boulevard Raleigh, NG 27604 Fax (919) 715-0588 Fax (919)715-6048 An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer— 50% Recyded/10% Post Consumer Paper Customer service I-877-623-6748 Prestage Farms Page 2 January 3, 2006 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. From the date of receipt of this letter, a period of 180 days is provided to perform PLAT and return the certification form to DWQ. Only a technical specialist who has received specific training may perform PLAT. You are encouraged to contact a technical specialist now to run PLAT on your farm. Your local Soil and Water Conservation District may be able to provide assistance. This information on the attached form(s) must be submitted within 180 days of receipt of this letter to: Animal Feeding Operations Unit Division of Water Quality 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1636 NPDES permitted farms will need to have implemented a nutrient management plan which addresses phosphorus loss before the next permit cycle beginning July, 2007. if you have any fields with a high or very high rating, then your waste utilization plan will require modifications. The purpose of performing PLAT this early is to allow adequate time for making waste plan modifications where necessary. With the next permit, continued application of waste will not be allowed on fields with a very high rating. For fields rated high, only the amount of phosphorus projected to be removed by the harvested crop. For low and medium ratings, phosphorus will not be the limiting factor. Once the PLAT evaluation is completed on your farm, you will know if you have fields that need further work. You aW encouraged to begin developing and implementing a strategy to deal with any issues as soon as possible: 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 Statue or permitting requirement. .
