Clinton NC 28328 910-385-8039 Location: Phone: Type of Operation: Feed-Finish 2205 Number of Animal: Storage Structure: Anaerobic Lagoon Method of Application: Irrigation Amount of waste produced per year: Amount of plant available N (PAN) produced/year: 4190 ton/year 5072 lbs ./year The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to preve nt pollution of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal wa ste 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 ana lyzed 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 or der to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environm en tally safe manner. 1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and t he nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can uti lize. 2. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potential s, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities. 3. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 t ons per ac re per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, bu t less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strip s are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the sur face is frozen. Either of these conditions may in runoff to the surface waters whi ch is not allowed under DWQ regulations. S. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind od or problem s. 6. To maximize the value of the nutrients for crops production and to red uce t he potent ial fo r pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied n ot m ore than 30 da y s prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the was te or disk ing w ill conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to chan ge m ethods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different applications m et hod s are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient con tent fo r this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis rep ort from your waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysi s m ade , w h ich DENR-FRO 0 ~ I MAR 1 8 201~ OWQ Pearsall Farm, Inc. 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. This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the r equirements for compliance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

Use the followin table on the IRR-2 form. Sweet potatoes may be planted in this rota t ion. Total Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropri ate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Pearsall Farm, Inc. Page 4 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting theN 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 Jet 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 faiL 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 w as t e uti lization plan mu st co ntain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at agronomic rates. Th e 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 794 lbs . of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge . If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 3969 lbs. of PAN t o utilize. A ss uming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudag ra ss hay land at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 13 ac re s of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will ne ed 32 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 w aste ana lysis, so il types, reali sti c yields, and application methods. APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION The irrigation application r ate shou ld not exceed the in take r ate of the so il at the time of irriga tion such that r un off or pending occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount shou ld not exceed the available water holding capacity Pearsall Farm, Inc. Page 5 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 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 ap p l ied beca us e 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 t h e 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 eve nt of t he 25 y ea r 24 hou r storm. It is the responsibility of the producer and the waste applicator to ensure that the sp reader equipment is operated properly to apply the correct rates shown in the tables. Failure to apply the recommended rates and amou nts 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. NARRATIV(OF OPERATION The chicken barns in pull number 1 & 2 are no longer in production and are being torn down at the present. Pull 1 & 2 will extent pass the barns when material is removed and crop planted. A new WUP will be updated when t his project is completed. Pearsall Farm, Inc. WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS 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 facilit y 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. 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. 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 dis king after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field. 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.) 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 pending 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. 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 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. 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-Filter Strips). Page 7 Pearsall Farm, Inc. REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. Page 8 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 wetla nds 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 dis t urbed 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 elimi nate 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 checkli st should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetation and other crops for di r ect human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct hu ma n consumption it should only be applied pre-plant with no further applica tions of anima l waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and the bottom eleva t ions of th e temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumpi ng 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-det ermining element. Zinc and copper levels in the soil shall be monitored and alternat ive 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 kep t for five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintai ned for t h ree (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 regula t ions.

B. The Pearsall Swine Farm was permitted as a nondischarge facility on October 26, 1998, in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0217. C . Elbert Pearsall was issued a Certificate of Coverage A WS820619 under General Permit A WG 100000 for Pearsall Farm on October 26 , 1998, effective date of October 26, 1998 with an expiration date of April 30, 2003. D . Condition No.II (2) of the issued permit states" A vegetative cover shall be maintained on all land application fields and buffers in accordance with the CA WMP". Condition NoJII (3) of the issued permit states" A representative Standard Soil Fertility Analysis, including pH, copper, and zinc, shall be conducted annually on each application field receiving animal waste. The results of these tests shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for a minimum of three years and shall be made available to the DWQ upon request". Condition No. III (4) of the issued permit states "An analysis of the animal waste shall be conducted as close to the time of application as practical and at least within 60 days (before or after) of the date of application. This analysis shall include the following parameters: Nitrogen, Phosphorou s, Zinc, Copper". Condition No . III (5) of the issued permit states "Records, including land application events and removal of solids to an off-site location records , shall be maintained by the Permittee in chronological and legible form for a minimum of three years. These records shall be maintained on forms provided or approved by the DWQ and shall be readily available for inspection . E. DWQ staff inspected the Pearsall Farm on the following dates to verify compliance with the General Permit. Comments include the following: 10-23-97 lagoon dikes reseeded per Soil and Water, no irrigation as of yet. 9-16-98 need to continue to work on establishing grass on inside slopes. On back corner had a slight erosion problem on inside slope. Evidently the farm has not pumped since no irrigation records were available. 8-31-99 farm was stocked in early to mid 95.

Has this facility received a CAFO Designation? YES_ NO X If yes, date issued: ____ _ 13 . Type of Operation: Swine. Feeder to Finish 14. Number and type of livestock : The facility is designed and pennitted for 2940 ho~s per cycle. 1 5. Length of time animals have been, are , or will be stabled, or confined and fed or maintained in any 12 month period. Twelve (12) months. 16 . Are crops, pasture, or post harvest residues sustained in the normal growing season over any portion of the lot or facility? No. The farm waS designed to have approximately 30 acres of land on which to apply waste. The certj tied waste management plan calls for a soybean and wheat rotation crop in fields 1-4 (17 .8 acres) and a com. wheat. and soybean rotation on fields 5&6 (5.2 acres) and soybeans and wheat on field 7 (1 .9acres). At the time of the inspection. none of the spray fields had a wheat crop established. Page 2 17. Type of Waste Management System: Swine are kept in total confinement free stall barns with slotted floors over flushing pits. Waste is flushed as needed from floor pits into the waste laEoon system. The lagoon system is composed of one ( 1) lagoon from which waste can be pumped to the application fields via a mobile reel and spray gun system. 18. Description of other animal operations in i~mediate vicinity and proximity to same or other surface waters: It was noted that the Kenneth Bradshaw swine farm is located adjacent to the Pearsall Farm. This facility applies waste on fields adjacent to the Pearsall Farm facility application site. 19. Proximity of facility to neighboring houses, wells, etc.: It was noted that several residences are located approximately 200 feet from the North portion of the waste application field # 5&6. 20. Approximate depth of ground water table in the area of the facility or discharge: 18 to 20 feet. 21. Proximity of facility to surface waters: Facility (edge of lagoons) is located approximately 750 feet from a blue line stream. 22. Animal waste discharged. fuyjm; Witnesses: Not applicable 23. Are pollutants discharged in the waters of the State? NQ Ifso, how? 24. Do or have discharges occurred in response to a storm event less severe than the 25-year, 24 hour storm? NQ. 25. What is the degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to public health, or to private property resulting from the violation?: Not applicable. 26. What is the duration and gravity of the violation?: This facility has been inspected approximately 10 times by the DWQ and the DS&W and no violations of this type were ever IlQkd. 2 7. Water Quality Assessment: Several residences approximately 500 feet to the West of field # 7 are reported to have high levels of nitrates in their potable wells . In addition. one residence to the North of fields 5&6 are reported to have high nitrates in their well. This facility could have contributed to the problem since previous records may not be accurate and all waste has been irrigated on a portion of the required acreage until the most recent CA WMP was issued in March2002. 28. What is the cost of rectifying the damage?: unknown Page 3 29. What is the amount of money saved by noncompliance?: Based on observations made durini the investigations.little or no money was saved by Mr. Pearsall failure to maintain accurate records. 30. Was the violation committed willfully or intentionally?: YES.lL NO_ Explain: Mr. Pearsall orriginally stated that no irrigation bad occurred since the previous inspection. however. after reviewing his lagoon level records for the period the inspector observed that approximately 12 inches of wastewater had been irrigated in November 2001. Further discussion with Mr. Pearsall about the discr~ancy resulted in Mr. Pearsall admitting that he had irrigated and the records were at his home. We a~W'ed that I would reyjew the records in question on the next day at his place of business. Further in51>ectjon of the waste application field resulted in the observation that no wheat crop bad been established on the field after the irri&ation event and that no waste sample had been collected within the required time (60 days prior to or after an irrigation event). A review of the missing irrigation records on March 14.2002 confirmed that only 198.000 gallons ofthe 600.000 &allons were accounted for in his calculations. 31. What is the prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority?: Mr. Pearsall has been co-operative at all times with the inspections agencies and no major violations have eyer been noted. 32. What is the cost of the enforcement procedures?: Regional Costs are as follows: Mileage: $0.23 per mile for I 00 miles: Robert Heath@$ 20.01/hr 3 hours-Drive Time (two (2) trips) 1 .5 hours -Investigation 8 hours -Report Development hours 12 .5 total Paul Rawls @ $ /hr hours -1 total Central Office Review $ 23.00 $ 60.03 $ 30.01 $ 160.08 $ 250.12 $ 31.87 $ 100.00 Total $ 404 .99 Page4 33. Type or general nature of business: Swine. Feeder to Finish 34. What is the violator's degree of cooperation or recalcitrance: Mr.Pearsall has been co-operative with the inspectors durin~ all inspections and no major violations have been identified until this year, The inspection in 1999 re.ported that after 4 years ofoperation. no waste application had occurred according to the records for the farm and the la~oon was suSl)ect ofleakin~. It should be noted. however. that problems of this type are vezy hard to identify due to the minimal amount of records required to be maintained, 35. Are there any Mitigating Circumstances?: N.Q 36. Assessment Factors: D.QM 37. Include a copy of any Desbmation Jetter signed by the Director. 38. Recommendations Made to Owner/Operator: Immediately begin ke<qlin~ accurate lagoon level records, Immediately collect a waste sample of the la~oon, Immediately contact a technical specialist to arnmend your CAWMP for the correct crop. Insure that all irrigation is recorded immediately to prevent future mistakes, Calibrate your irrigation equipment for accurate gallons per minute calculations, 39. Recommendations for further DWQ Action: -Notice of Violation (Forwarded March 26. 2002) -Enforcement Action -Reinspection 40. Other Comments: In surnroruy. it is the opinion of this writer that the owner of the facility has intentionally failed to record the irri~ation events conducted this fall and winter due to not having established the required crop and due to his failure to collect the required waste sample, The records produced on March 14. 2002 were not accurate since be had not recorded them at the time ofthe irrigation event It is possible that this was the first incident of not reporting his irrigation events but it is just as possible that this problem has been missed by the DWQ and the DS&W on previous inspections, March 30~ 2002 Paul E.

I am submitting the facility records that were requested from your letter dated March 26, 2002. Please find included with this letter [I] weekly lagoon freeboard records [2] IRRl and IRR2 forms [3] waste samples and [4) waste management plan with lagoon design. I strongly disagree with the idea that my facility wrongly discharged waste in November of2001 on sprayfields in an intentional manner. On my behalf, I would like to take this opportunity to explain some of the purposed violations. On the matter of not extablishing a crop (wheat) on which waste application was applied fell to a change in plan, not on my part but on the part of the farmer who leased the sprayfields on which my waste management plan is designated. The fanner found nematodes on the fields which made it necessary for him to rotate the purposed winter wheat to spring com . ·This was a non-communication between him and myself in which case I was not aware wheat would not be planted within 30 days of my waste application. Please see included with this letter new waste management plan with com as part of the plan. As for the other violation, I take full responsibility of neglecting to collect a waste lagoon sample in the proper 60 day waste application time frame. I now also understand the importance of adequate record keeping at the time of waste application instead of taking care of records when it is more convenient for me to do so. I feel this is the reason for the discrepancy in the ~ . ·' ., I ' ;r'-/ . I / Paul E. Rawls Page2 March 30; 2002 nwnber of gallons irrigated and the amount of freeboard shown on the freeboard lagoon log. This was merely a neglect of adequate record keeping at the time of circumstance. I believe that you will find my previous inspection records to be in good standing and I am committed again to having my inspections show a well- maintained farm facility.

Kent Wiggins, Acting Supervisor of the Non-Discharge Compliance and Enforcement Unit of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ), make the following: I. FINDINGS OFF ACT: A. Elbert Pearsall owns and operates the Elbert Pearsall Farm, a swine operation in Sampson County. B. Elbert Pearsall was issued Certificate of Coverage A WS820619 under General Permit AWGlOOOOO for the Elbert Pearsall Farm on October 26, 1998, effective October 26, 1998, with an expiration date of April 30, 2003. C . Condition No. ill. 5. of the General Permit states in part that "Records, including land application events and removal of solids to an off-site location ·records, shall be maintained by the Pennittee in chronological and legible form for a minimum of three years. These records shall be maintained on forms provided or approved by the DWQ and shall be readily available for inspection." D . On March 13, 2002. DWQ staff inspected the Elbert Pearsall Farm. Land application records and freeboard records were reviewed during the inspection. The records showed a freeboard level of 32 inches on November 4, 200 I and a level of 44 inches for November 11, 200 I . Based on the lagoon design , this is a difference of approximately 480,000 gallons of waste. The irrigation records for the fann only account for 198,000 gallons of waste which was applied on November 11, 2001 . E. Condition No. I. 2. of the General Permit incorporates by reference the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) for a facility and states that any violation of the CA WMP shall be considered a violation of the General Permit. A waste utilization plan (WUP) is a required component of the CAWMP. The WUP for the Elbert Pearsall farm specifies that wheat will be planted in all fields in the fall. F. Condition No. n. 2. of the General Permit states in part that "A vegetative cover shall be maintained on all land application fields and buffers in accordance with the CAWMP." G. During the March 13th inspection, staff observed that wheat had not been planted in the field to which waste was applied on November 11 !h. Staff observed that there was no vegetative cover in the field. H. Condition No. ill. 6. b. of the General Permit requires that the pennittee shall report by telephone to the appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no ca.Se more than 24 hours following fust know ledge of the occurrence of any failure of the animal waste treatment and disposal system that renders the facility incapable of adequately receiving, treating or storing the animal waste and/or sludge. I. The Fayetteville Regional Office did not receive a report from Elbert Pearsall regarding the application of waste to a field with no vegetative cover. 1. The costs to the State of the e nforcement procedures in this matter totaled $404.99. Based upon the above Findings of Fac t, I make the following: ll. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: A. Elbert Pearsall is a "person " within the meaning of G.S. 143-2 15.6A pursuant to G.S. 14 3-212(4). B. A permit for an animal waste management system is required by G.S. 143-2 15 .1. C. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. ill. 5. of General P ermit No. A WG 100000 by failing to m ain tain r ecords of all land application events between November 4, 2001 and November 11 , 2001. D. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. IT. 2 . of General Permit No. AWG 100000 by applying waste to a land application field with no vegetative cover. E. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. ill. 6. b. of General Permit No. A WG 100000 by failing to report that waste had been applied to a land application field with no vegetative cover which is a condition that rendered the facility incapable of adequately treating the animal waste. F. Elbert Pearsall may be assessed civil penalties pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2) which provides that a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) per violation may be assessed against a person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of a permit required by G.S. 143-215.1. G. The State's enforcement costs in this matter may be assessed against Elbert Pearsall pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B-282.1(b)(8). H. The Acting Supervisor of the Non-Discharge Compliance and Enforcement Unit. Division of Water Quality, pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Dep~ment of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Quality, has the authority to assess civil penalties in this matter. Based upon the above Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, I make the following: Ill. DECISION: Elbert Pearsall is hereby assessed a civil penalty of: $ _ _.......,2"}<-....::....d_d __ _ s 404.99 for violation of Condition No. III. 5. of the General Permit by failing to maintain records of land application events for violation of Condition No. D. 2. of the General Permit by applying waste to a land application field with no vegetative cover for violation of Condition No. III. 6. of the General Permit by failing to report that waste had been .applied to a land application field with no vegetative cover thereby rendering the facility incapable of adequately treating the animal waste Enforcement costs TOTAL A!\-IOUI'I"T DUE As required by G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I considered the factors listed in G.S. 143B-282.1(b), which are: (1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State, to the public health, or to private property resulting from the violation; (2) The duration and gravity of the violation; (3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality; (4) The cost of rectifying the damage; (5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance; (6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally; (7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and (8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.

Elbert Pearsall owns and operates the E lbert Pearsall Farm, a swine operation in Sampson County. B. Elbert Pearsall was issued Certificate of Coverage A WS8206 I 9 under General Permit A WG 100000 for the Elbert Pearsall Farm on October 26, 1998 , effective October 26, 1998, with an expiration date of April 30, 2003. C. Condition No. ill. 5. of the General Permit states in part that "Records, i n cluding land application events and removal of solids to an off-site location rec o rds, shall be maintained by the Permittee in chronological and legible fonn for a minimum of three years. These records shall be maintained on forms provided or approved by the DWQ and shall be readily available for inspection." D . On March I 3, 2002, DWQ staff inspected the Elbert Pearsall Farm. Land application records and freeboard records were reviewed during the in spection. The records showed a freeboard level of 32 inches on November 4, 2001 and a level of 44 inches for November 11, 2001. Based on the lagoon design, this is a difference of approximately 480,000 gallons of waste. The irrigation records for the farm only account for 198 ,000 gallons of waste which was applied on November 11 ,2001. E. Condition No. I. 2 . of the General Permit incorporates by reference the Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP) for a facility and states that any violation of the CA WMP shall be considered a violation of the General Permit. A waste utilization plan (WUP) is a required component of the CA WMP. The WUP for the Elbert Pearsall farm specifies that wheat will be planted in all fields in the fall. F. Condition No. II. 2. of the General Permit states in part that "A vegetative cover shall be maintained on all land application fields and buffers in accordance with the CAWMP.'' G. During the March 13th inspection, staff observed that wheat had not been planted in the field to which waste was applied on November 11 lh_ Staff observed that there was no vegetative cover in the field. H. Condition No. ill. 6 . b . of the General Permit requires that the permittee shall report by telephone to the appropriate Regional Office as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of any failure of the animal waste treatment and disposal system that renders the facility incapable of adequately receiving, treating or storing the animal waste and/or sludge. I. The Fayetteville Regional Office did not receive a report from Elbert Pearsall regarding the application of waste to a field with no vegetative cover. J . The costs to the State of the enforcement procedures in this matter totaled $404.99. Bas ed upon the above F i ndings of Fact, I make the following : II. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: A. Elbert Pearsall is a "person" within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.6A pursuant to G.S. 143-212(4). B. A permit for an animal waste management system is required by G .S. 143-215.1. C. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. ill. 5 . of General Permit No. A WG 100000 by failing to maintain records of all land application e vents between November 4, 2001 and November II , 200 I . D. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. II . 2. of General Permit No. A WG 100000 by applying waste to a land application field with no vegetative cover. E. Elbert Pearsall violated Condition No. ill. 6. b. of General Permit No. A WG 100000 by failing to report that waste had been applied to a land application field with no vegetative cover which is a condition that rendered the facility incapable of adequately treating the animal waste. F. Elbert Pearsall may be assessed civil penalties pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(a)(2) which provides that a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) per violation may be assessed against a person who violates or fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of a pennit requiredbyG.S. 143-215.1. G. The State's enforcement costs in this maner may be assessed against Elbert Pearsall pursuant to G.S. 143-215.3(a)(9) and G.S. 143B-282.l{b)(8). H. The Acting Supervisor of the Non-Discharge Compliance and Enforcement Unit, Division of Water Quality, pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Director of the Division of Water Quality, has the authority to assess civil penalties in this maner. Based upon the above Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, I make the following: Ill.

The c ertifi ed wast e management plan calls for a soybean and wheat rotation crop in fields 1-4 ( 17.8 acres) and a com. wheat. and soybean rotation on fields 5&6 (5.2 acres) and soybeans and wheat on field 7 (1 .9acres). At the tim e of the inspection. none of the spray fi elds had a wheat crop established. Page 2 17. Type of Waste Management System: Swine are kept in total confinement free stall barns with slotted floors oyer flushing pits. Waste is flushed as needed from floor pits into the waste lagoon system. The lagoon system is composed of one (1) lagoon from which waste can be pumped to the application fields via a mobile reel and spray gun system. 18. Description of other animal operations in immediate vicinity and proximity to same or other surface waters: It was noted that the Kenneth Bradshaw swine faun is located acijacent to the Pearsall Faun. This facility 3l"Plies waste on fields acijacent to the Pearsall Farm facility application site. 19. Proximity of facility to neighboring houses, wells, etc.: It was poted that several residences are located approximately 200 feet from the North portion of the waste application field# 5&6. 20. Approximate depth of ground water table in the area of the facility or discharge: 18 to 20 feet. 21. Proximity of facility to surface waters: Facility (edge of Jagoops) is located approximately 750 feet from a blue line stream. 22. Animal waste discharged. Swine Witnesses: Not applicable 23. Are poJlutants discharged in the waters of the State? NQ Ifso, how? 24. Do or have discharges occurred in response to a storm event Jess severe than the 25-year, 24 hour storm? NQ. 25. What is the degree and extent ofharm to the natural resources ofthe State, to public health, or to private property resulting from the violation?: Not apphcable. 26. What is the duration and gravity of the violation?: This facility bas been inspected approximately 10 times by the DWQ and the DS&W and no violations of this type were ever ~ 27. Water Quality Assessment Several residences approximately 500 feet to the West of field# 7 are reported to have high levels of nitrates in their potable wells. In addition. one residence to the NQrth of fields 5&6 are re.ported to have high nitrates in their well. This facility could have contributed to the problem since previous records may not be accurate and all waste has been irrigated on a portion of the required acreage until the most recent CAWMP was issued in March 2002. 28. What is the cost of rectifying the damage?: unlmown Page3 29. What is the amount of money saved by noncompliance?: Based on observations made durin~ the investi~ations.ljttle or no money was sayed by Mr. Pearsall failure to maintain accurate records. 30. Was the violation committed willfully or intentionally?: YES_x_ NO_ Explain: Mr. Pearsall orriiinally stated that no irri~ation had occurred since the previous inspection. however. after reviewing his laioon level records for the period the inspector observed that approximately 12 inches of wastewater had been irri~ated in November 2001. Further discussion with Mr. Pearsall about the djscre.pancy resulted in Mr. Pearsall admitting that he had irrigated and the records were at his borne. We agreed that I would review the records in question on the next day at his place of business. Furtber inspection of the waste application field resulted in the observation that no wheat crop had been established on the field after the irrigation event and that no waste sample had been collected within the req_uired time (60 days prior to or after an irrigation eyent). A review of the missing irriiation records on March 14, 2002 confirmed that only 198.000 gallons of the 600,000 gallons were accounted for in his calculations. 31. What is the prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over which Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority?: Mr. Pearsall has been co-operative at all times with the inspections agencies and no major violations have ever been noted. 32 . What is the cost of the enforcement procedures?: Regional Costs are as follows : Mileage: $0.23 per mile for 100 miles: Robert Heath@$ 20.01/br 3 hours-Drive Time (two (2) trips) 1.5 hours -Investigation 8 hours -Report Development hours 12 .5 total Paul Rawls @ $ lhr hours -I total Central Office Review . $ 23.00 $ 60.03 $ 30.01 $ 160.08 $ 250.12 $ 31.87 $ 100.00 Total $ 404.99 Page 4 33. Type or general nature of business: Swine. Feeder to Finish 34. What is the violator's degree of cooperation or recalcitrance: Mr.Pearsall has been co-operative with the inspectors during all inspections and no major violations have been identified until trus year. The inspection in 1999 reported that after 4 years of operation. no waste application had occurred according to the records for the farm and the lagoon was suspect of leaking. It should be noted. however. that problems of this type are very hard to identify due to the minimal amount of records reQuired to be maintained. 35. Are there any Mitigating Circumstances?: NO 36. Assessment Factors: ~ 3 7. Include a copy of any Designation Jetter signed by the Director. 38. Recommendations Made to Owner/Operator: Immediately begin kee.ping accurate lagoon level records. Immediately collect a waste sample of the lagoon, Immediately contact a technical s.pecialist to ammend your CAWMP for the correct crop. Insure that all irrigation is recorded immediately to prevent future mistakes, Calibrate your irrigation eQuipment for accurate gallons per minute calculations. 39. Recommendations for further DWQ Action: -Notice of Violation (Forwarded March 26. 2002) -Enforcement Action -Reinspection 40. Other Comments: In sumroruy. it is the opinion of this writer that the owner of the facility bas intentionally failed to record the irrigation events conducted this fall and winter due to not haying established the reQuired crop and due to his failure to collect the required waste sample, The records produced on March 14. 2002 were not accurate since he had not recorded them at the time ofthe irrigation event It js possible that this was the first incident of not reporting his irrigation events but it is just as possible that this problem has been missed by the DWQ and the DS&W on previous inspections.

I am submitting the facility records that were requested from your letter dated March 26, 2002. Please find included with this letter (1] weekly lagoon freeboard records (2) IRR1 and IRR2 forms [3] waste samples and [4] waste management plan with lagoon design. I strongly disagree with the idea that my facility wrongly discharged waste in November of 2001 on sprayfields in an intentional manner. On my behalf, I would like to take this opportunity to explain some of the purposed violations . On the matter of not extablishing a crop (wheat) on which waste application was applied fell to a change in plan~ not on my part but on the part of the fanner who leased the sprayfields on which my waste management plan is designated. The fanner found nematodes on the fields which made it necessary for him to rotate the pwposed winter wheat to spring com. This was a non-communication between him and myself in which case I was not aware wheat would not be planted within 30 days of my waste application. Please see included with this letter new waste management plan with com as part of the plan . As for the other violation, I take full responsibility of neglecting to collect a waste lagoon sample in the proper 60 day waste application time frame . I now also understand the importance of adequate record keeping at the time of waste application instead of taking care of records when it is more convenient for me to do so. I feel this is the reason for the discrepancy in the Paul E. Rawls Page2 March 30, 2002 r . ····--- l l WJR 3 200~ ' l '• ----·---- .

The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be use to reduce the amount of coamercial 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 t o be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply mor e n i trogen than the crop can utilize. 2. S o il types are important as they have di f fe r ent infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capa ci ties. 3 . Nor~ally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding a t 5 or more tone per acre annu a lly, but less than 10 tons per acre per yea r providing that adequate filter stripe are established. 4. Do not apply waste on saturate d 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 c onditions should also be considered to av o ild dr i ft and downwind odor problems. 6. T o maxim ize the value of th e nu t ri e nts for crop p r o du c tion a nd to r e duce the p otential for pollution, the waste should be appli e d to a growing crop or applied not mo re than 3 0 days prior to pl a nting a c rop or forage s breaking dorman c y.

Thi s pl a n is b a sed o n the waste application method s hown above. lf y ou ch o o se to change methods in the future, you need t o revise thie plan. Nutrient levels for different application methods are not the sa me. The e s timated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on t ypi ca l nu trien t con tent for t h is t y pe o £ f ac il i ty.

You should plan time and have appropriate equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner. Elbert Pearsall Farm ~age ~ 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 same parts o£ 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 o£ 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 i£ 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 £all. 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 , 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 waste utilization plan must contain provision for periodic land application o£ 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 794 lbs. o£ plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 3969 lbs. of PAN to utilize. assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid berffiudagraaa hayland at the rate o£ 300 lbs. o£ nitrogen per acre, you will need 13 acres o£ land. If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, you will need 32 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. Elbert Pearsall Farm 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 pending 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.

Narrative of Operation: The application fields as shown on the attached map are colored yellow. The ditches needing setbacks are marked green. There is a 50' setback from highway ditches for parts of fields 1 ,2,3, and 5. There is also a 25' setback for a ditch in field 1. Wheat will be planted in all fields in the plan in the Fall and harvested for g;ain. Soybeans will be doublecropped after the wt.sat in all fields and harvested for grain in the Fall. This cropping sequence will be repeated each year. The nitrogen rates used in the plan to cal:ulate the acres required for wheat and soybeans for the listed soils were based on NRCS realistic yield expectations.

The p lant nu trients 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 li miting 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 e roding 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 r unoff 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 f u ture, you need to revise th is plan. Nutrient levels for different applications methods are not the same. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typ ical nutrient con tent for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management faci lity. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which RECEIVED I DENR I DVVQ AquifP.r Prnt e~t i"" ~"'r1ion MA R 2 5 2009 Elbert Pea rs all Farm Page 2 could a llow 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. Elbert Pearsall Farm Page 3 The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requiremen ts . 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 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, arid 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 an i ma l 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 159 lbs . of plant available nitrogen per year in the sludge. If you remove sludge every 5 years you will have approximately 794 lbs. of PAN to utilize . Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 lbs/acre you will need 3 acres of land . If you apply the sludge to corn at the rate of 125 lbs. of nitrogen per acre you will need 6 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 yie lds, 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 pending occurs. This rate is limited by in itial soil moisture content, soil structu re . soil tex ture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity Elbert Pearsall Farm Page4 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 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. The following table is provided as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts. Tract No. Field No. Soil Type Crop Applic. Apptic.

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 1 0 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 pending 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 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 -Filter Strips).

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.

The dwelling is the red brick home on Hornrine Road next to the row crop spray field in front of the turkey houses. A representative from the Fayetteville Regional Office ofthe Division of Water Quality responded to the complaint on 8/9/01 around 5:00p.m. Upon arriving at the farm site, there was no noticeable signs that waste water had reached the home. The irrigation event was still in progress. A visit to the spray field revealed that no waste had come within 300 feet of the home or within 200 feet of the property line. Because of the dry nature of the soil and the field being newly disked (spraying 30 day pre-plant for wheat crop), any drift would have been easily noticeable. Regulations require a 200 feet setback from an occupied dwelling not on the farm property.

The application amount should net 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. 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 instance should the volume of waste being stored in your structure be h igher than the upper pumping mari<er except in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm. If surface irrigation is the method of :and application for this plan, i t is the responsibility of the producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly irrigate the acres shown in Table 2 . Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables make this p lan invalid_ Narrative of Operation: The application fields as shewn on the attac.i-ted map are colored yellow . The ditches :Jeeding setbacks are marked green_ There is a 50' setback from highway ditches for parts cf fields 1.2 ,3, and 5 _ There i s also a 25' setback for a ditch in field 1. Wheat will be plan ted i n all fields in the plan in the Fall and har1ested for gr ain. Soybeans will be doublecropped after the wheat in all fields and harvested for grain in the FaiL Thi s cropping sequence will be repeated each year. The nitrogen ra tes used in the plan to calculate the acres required for wheat and soybeans for the listed soils were based on NRCS realistic yield expectations.

The volume of waste generated fr-om a given number of animals wi~l be fairly constant thr-oughout the year . I and from year to year. Thislestimate is based on 7 inches·of excess rainfall which is equal to dr exceeds the highest 6 months e x cess in a year. The average annual Jxcess rainfall is appro x imately 8 inches. I Therefore, an average of 8 inches of excess rainfall ~ill ne~d to be pumped each year. The 25 year rainfall will ~ot be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage volume must alway s be avail~ble. 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 install~d o~ the elevation to begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed on this elevatio~ to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established to stop pumping to maintain minimum tr-eatment 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 method of disposal .. cente~ pivot, guns, taken when applying waste water is recognized as an acceptable Methods of application include solid set, and traveling gun ir-rigation.

It is strongl y recommended that the t~eatment lagoon be pre - charged t o 1 /2 its capacity to pre v ent e~cessive odors during start-~p. Pre-charging reduces the concentration of the initial waste enter i ng tha lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be covered with effluent at all times.

Stop pump-out when the fluid l eve l reaches elevftion 44.6 or before fhe flu id dept h is less than 6 feet deep (this prevents· the loss of favorable bacteria).

Factors included are: 1: Always apply wastes based on crop needs and the nutrient content of the waste. 2: Do not over apply nitrogen. 3: Do not apply wastes on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the ground is frozen, either could cause surface runoff. 4 : Consider wind conditions to avoid drift and down wind odor problems. 5: Wastes can only be applied to actively growing crops or not more than 30 days prior to planting or to forages breaking donnancy. 6: This plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. 7 : This plan is based on wastes being applied using irrigation. If the application method is changed, this plan will need to be revised because the nutrient content varies depending upon the application method. 8: Waste samples are required to be taken and analyzed at least 60 days within the application date. 9 : Soil samples are required to be taken and analyzed annually. These analyses are used to balance all nutrients for optimum growth and to monitor metal levels in the soil, especially copper and zinc.

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. Your facility is designee for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must be removed on the average of once every 6 months. In no instance should the volume of waste being stor ed in your structure be higher than the upper pumping marker e)(cept in the event of a 25 year, 24 hour storm. 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 Table 2 . Failure to apply the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables make this plan invalid. Narrative of Operation: The application fields as shown on the attached map are colored yellow. The ditches needing setbacks are marked green. There is a 50' setback from highway ditches for parts of fields 1 ,2,3, and 5 . There is also a 25' setback for a ditch in fieid 1. Wheat will be planted in all fields in the plan in the Fall and harvested for grain. Soybeans will be doublecropped after the wr.eat in all fields and harvested for grain in the Fall. Thi s cropping sequence will be repeated each year. The nitrogen rates used in the plan to cal::ulate the acres required for wheat and soybeans for the listed soils were based on NRCS realistic yield expectations.

Any discharge of waste which reaches surface wate= 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 procucer 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 conditio~s, and level of management, unless there are regul~tions that restrict the rate of application for other nutrients. 4 • Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less tha_'l 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 runof= 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 appl:ied 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 Clima~e in North Carolinaw for ·guidance.) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed tee soil infiltra~ion rate such that runoff does not occur offsi~e or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site duri ng application. No pending 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.
