This letter is to confirm that the repairs on Mr. Powell's lagoon have been completed. As recommended in my letter dated October 28th, Mr. Powell has filled in suitable clay -type material back to the original grade. Temporary winter grass has been planted and is coming up. Mr. Powell plans to re -seed with permanent grass in the spring. Based on the evidence found on my inspection on December 3rd, it is my opinion the erosion has been satisfactorily repaired. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at 910- 296-1170. Sincerely, C/ M. Floyd Adams, P.E.

The inspection revealed that severe erosion on the inside slope of the lagoon had caused the lining (compacted clay) to be washed away. This could result in a discharge from your operation into the groundwater through seepage due to the lack of a liner in your lagoon. The severe erosion could also cause a failure of your lagoon embankment as the integrity of the structure has been breached. You are hereby requested to contact a technical specialist and have clay added and compacted to the current NRCS standards. Upon the completion of this renovation the lagoon shall be recertified by an engineer. The Division of Water Quality requests that the following items be addressed: 1. Immediately eliminate any sources of waste from entering the lagoon until all repairs are made and the lagoon has been recertified. 2. Make any modifications needed to ensure there will be no future discharges. 3. Provide this office with a copy of your waste management plan for the above mentioned farm, including all records of waste irrigation events. 225 Green Street, Suite 714 FAX 910-486-0707 Fayetteville, North Carolina 28301-5043 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Telephone 910-486-1541 50% recycled/] 0% post -consumer paper Mr. Andy Powell Page 2 Failure to comply with the above conditions may result in the facility losing it's deemed permitted status and being required to obtain an individual non discharge permit for the facility.

Stevens OCT 2 ] 1997 225 Green St., Suite 714 Fayetteville, N.C. 2830,FAYFrTEM Dear Mr. Stevens; �. OFFICE This is in reply to your letter dated 8'Oct 1997 concerning one of my lagoons. I have consulted Prestage Farms Technical Specialist Glenn Clifton about the problem. iie have contacted lir. Floyd Adams of Kenansville, NC an engineer,-,and'he will determine what corrective action is to be taken. We will comply fully with whatever he says will repair the erosion. I hope to have this work completed around the first of November if the engineer completes his work and weather_-permites. " r would also like to inform you of some facts about the situation. Firstly. there has been no discharge or seepage ffom the lagoon as the level has not reached the erosion. Secondly there could be no breech of the lagoon because the area in question is 'a cut in slope and several hundred acres would have wash ash away to damage the integrity of the lagoon. Also the letter I received was postmarked from your office 14 Oct 1997 and I received it Friday lb Oct 1997 requesting an answer by 20 Oct 1997 this seems a little short sighted. It seems to me it would be better for everyone involved to work together when there is a problem. If someone had contacted me when they were coming to inspect some of this could have been'taken care of on site. 1 wish to comply with all regulations that pertain to my operation and I. assure you I. will try to do so: I have inclosed a copy of my waste management plan.as you requested. There has been no irrigation events as our area has been in a major drought almost since the lagoon in question went into use. Thank you for your consideration. JAnPowell ylors Bridge Hwy Clinton, N.C. 28328 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN ---------------------- Owners name --:ANDY POWELL County:SAMPSON Mail Address-:CLINTON,NC Type of production unit ---- :FEEDER TO FINISH Number of animal units-----: 3480 Type of waste facility ----- :Anaerobic Lagoon Temporary storage period ---: 180 days Method of application ------ :IRRIGATE Amount of animal waste produced-----------------: 6612 tons/year Amount of plant available N produced by animals-: 8004 lbs./year Commercial N to apply on planned acreage -------- : 0 lbs./year Your animal waste utilization plan has been specifically developed for your swine operation. The plan is based on the soil types, crops to be grown, and method of application for your particular operation. The waste must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution of surface and/or ground water. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops where the waste is to be applied. This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle and annual soil tests are encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates and leaching potential. Waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils or on land when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or not more than 30 days prior to planting. Soil incorporation of waste will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. Page 2 The acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Annual acreage requirements may be more or less based on the waste analysis report for your waste management facility.

This equipment must be available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge occurs from the lagoon in a 25 -year 1 -day storm event.

October 28, 1997 Mr. Kerr T. Stevens Department of Environmental and Natural Resources 225 Green St., Suite 714 Fayetteville, NC 28301 Subject: Andy Powell Farm Dear Mr. Stevens: OCT 3 0 1997 FES' E ]d LJE REG. 0r ICE I have been contacted by Mr. Andy Powell and Mr. Glenn Clifton with regards to your letter dated October 8th. Mr Clifton and myself visited the farm yesterday so that 1 could review the problem. Upon my inspection, I observed erosion of soil in the northeast corner of the lagoon. The erosion is limited to this one corner and is all above the existing water level. It is my opinion that he owner should haul in suitable clay type material and compact in 6 inch layers back to the original grade. I estimate the area needs about 2 cubic yards of material. Upon completion of the repair, I recommend the owner seed the area with temporary winter grass and in the spring re -seed with permanent grass cover. In my opinion the integrity of the structure is not at risk. This risk is further reduced due to the occurrence being located in a cut section. No evidence of discharge was found. These repairs have been discussed with Mr. Powell. He has indicated they can be completed by November 15th. I will provide an inspection and certification to you that the repairs have been properly completed as soon as possible. Should you have any questions, please contact me at 910-296-1170.

CLINTON NC 28328 Telephone: 910-592--8495 Type Operation: Existing Feeder to Finish Swine Number of Animals: 3480.00 hogs (Design 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 utilize.. w 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. t)arsP - 1 ANIMAL WASTE 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 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 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.) 3480 hogs x 1.9 tons waste/hogs/year = 6612 tons AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR 3480 hogs x 2.3 lbs PAN/hogs/year = 6004 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.

In many situations, the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum_ soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180.00 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6.00 months. 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 Page: 10 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 ori 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 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) S. 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 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. 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: 11 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. 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 ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips). 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by 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 into water -courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no -.runoff or -drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. 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: 12 WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption it should only be applied 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 elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate - determining 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 records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be _ maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

The time required for the planned'"' ;,.� `T,fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached .may vary _ o due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount ' of fresh water added to the system_ The designed temporary storage consists of 180 days storage for: (1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also included is storage for the 25 year - 214 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 aM annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available, I 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 stripped at any time between these two elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without runoff or leaching. Land application of waste water is recognized as an acceptable method of disposal. Methods of application include solid set, center pivot, guns, and traveling gun irrigation. Care should.be taken when applying waste to prevent damage to crops. The following items are to be carried out: I. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre - charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during start-up. Pre -charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be = covered with effluent at all times. When precharging _s complete, flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water -'Should not be used for flushing after initial filling. �. The attached waste u.tiliZation plan shall be followed. This plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment) before land application. Begin temporary storage pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches the elevation 44, as marked by permanent marker. Stop pttmp- OUt when the fluid level reaches elevation 42.0 . This temporary storage, less 25 yr- ^4 hr storm, contains 1."77'51 cubic feet or 102a`B.-3 oallons. f}RatKIM K3 4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is O.•3r inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further,•details. 5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and -.:'areas adjacent to ,the ,- .,.:a .: lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as nee,ded 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 oLttlet5_ 8. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffer around waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 9. The Clean 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.

These lagoons are designed for waste treat- Meiit. OPKRATION AND MAIN'rENANCE PLAN 1. Keep vel;etation on embankment and areas adjacent to the lagoon mowed. 2. Repair eroded areas and vegetate. 3. Apply lime and fertilizer annually or as needed. 4. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be precharged to one-half of its capacity to prevent excessive odors during startup. Prec)':rging reduces the concentration of the initial wastes entering Che lagoon thereby reducing odors.

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 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 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. 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 applications 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 RECEIVED / DENR / DWQ AQUIFFR'aRn7r..Tir)N SECTION MAY 112009 Andy Powell Farm Page 2 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.

Available Nitrogen 8004 lbs. Surplus or deficit -3388 lbs. 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. Andy Powell Farm 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 plan only addresses nitrogen. In interplanted fields (i.e. small grain, etc. interseeded in bermudagrass), forage must be removed through grazing, hay and for silage. Where grazing, plants should be grazed when they reach a height of six to nine inches. Cattle should be removed when plants are grazed to a height of four inches. In fields where small grain etc. is to be removed for hay or silage, care should be exercised not to let small grain to reach materity, especially late in the season ( i.e. April or May) Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definitely interfere with the stand of bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and less nitrogen being utilized. Rather than cutting small grain for hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier: You may want to consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the season, depending on the time small grain is planted in the fall. The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc. is late September or early October. Drilling is recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or mowed to a height of about two inches before drilling for best 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, filters strips along ditches, odd areas 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 of animal waste. 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 1253 lbs. of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 6264 lbs. of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 21 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 50 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. 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 Andy Powell f=arm Page 4 of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the piant 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 irrrigate the acres shown in tables_ Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.

In many situations the application amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitations. The maximum application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions. Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no 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 responsibility of the producer and the waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates 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 have receive the waste analysis report for assistance in determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application rate prior to appling 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 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). 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. 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 residenrial property boundary and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 -f=ilter Strips). Andy Powell Farm REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 12. . Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. Page 7 13. 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. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted 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, toilets, 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 temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metal approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for optimum crop production and maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years. Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years. 23. Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management and land application of animal waste as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) for the Andy Powell Farm 9-13, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater than the following swine annual averages: Wean to Finish: 0 Feeder to Finish: 3480 Boar/Stud: 0 Wean to Feeder: 0 Farrow to Wean: 0 Gilts: 0 Farrow to Finish: 0 Farrow to Feeder: 0 If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009 and replaces the NPDES COC issued to this facility with an expiration date of July 1, 2007. You are required to continue conducting annual surveys of sludge accumulation in all lagoons at your facility; the one-year extension in Condition 1H.19 does not apply. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals. Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please paw careful attention to the record keeping and monitoring conditions in this permit.

Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed. The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property. h , Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking of the facility. Per 15A NCAC 02T.01 I l (c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 -foot separation shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a spray field. Per I5A NCAC 02T .1306, any containment basin, such as a lagoon or waste storage structure, shall continue to be subject to the conditions and requirements of the facility's permit until closed to NRCS standards and the permit is rescinded by the Division. 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. If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration. This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
