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 pian In order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner.
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste_ Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year_ Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established.
4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems.
6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

On June 11, 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your request for a change in operation type received on May 16, 2005 and in
accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of
Coverage (COC) issued to Jammic Piercy, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste
collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit
AWG 100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number
AWS820536 which expires September 30, 2009.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from C & C Nursery, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater
than an annual average of 8700 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to
Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may
be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4
gilts for every 3 sows.
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. 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.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
------------------------------
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment (permanent storage) with
min. odor control. The time required for the planned fluid level to be
reached (permanent * temporary storage) may vary due to soil conditions
flushing operations, and the amount of fresh water added to the system.
The designed 6 months temporary storage is an estimated volume
based on: 1) waste from animals; 2) excess rainfall after evaporation;
and 3) the largest 24 hour (one day) rainfall that occurs on the
average of once every 25 years. The volume of waste generated from
a giver, number of animals will be fairly constant throughout the year
and from year to year. This estimate is based on 7 inches of excess
rainfall which is equal to or exceeds the highest 6 months excess in
a year. The average annual excess rainfall is approximately 8 inches.
Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall will need to be
pumped each 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 on the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain minimum treatment depth (6 feet).
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 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 iters are to be carried out:
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre -
charged to 1f2 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 is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be followed. This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment)
before land application.
3. Begin pump -out of the lagoon when fluid level reaches eleva-
tion 50.0 as marked by permanent markt-.r. Stop pump -out when
the fluid level reaches elevation 48.0 or before the fluid depth is
less than 6 feet deep (this prevents the loss of favorable
bacteria). The design temporary storage, less 25 year storm
is 82068 cubic feet or 613869 gallons. As stated before, this
volume will vary considerably from year to year.
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
one (1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
inch per hour.
b. 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.
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.
S. 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.

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 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 DWO
regulations.
5. 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 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
C & C Nursery
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. Lima 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 adapted by the
Environmental Management Commission.

Applying the above amount, of waste is a big job. You should plan

manner.
C: & C: Nursery 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/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 season (i.e. April or May). Shading may result if small grain
gets too high and this will definitely interfere with stand of
bermudagrass. This loss of stand will result in reduced yields and
less nitrogen being utilized_ Rather than cutting small grain for
hay or silage just before heading as is the normal situation, you
are encouraged to cut the small grain earlier. You may want to
consider harvesting hay or silage two to three times during the
season, depending on 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.
Sermudagrass 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 , filter 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 baste 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 504 lbs. of plant available
nitrogen per year in the sludge.
If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately
2520 lbs. of FLAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to
hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs. of nitrogen
per acre, you will need S acres of land. If you apply the
sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 20 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.
C & C Nursery 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 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.

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
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 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.
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

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 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.
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.
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.
15. 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 50 days of utilization and sci l
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 thes
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 requlations.

" 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, Nater 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.
