RE: Sludge Survey Testing Dates
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Division of Water Quality (Division) received your sludge survey information for many of your
farms on March 29, 2012. With the survey results , you requested an extension ofthe sludge survey
requirement for the lagoons at the facilities listed below. Due to the amounts of treatment volume
available, the Division agrees that a sludge survey is not needed until 2014 for some of lagoons that are
listed on the attached table.
However, due to the amount of treatment volume available, and the rate of sludge accumulation, the
Division feels that an extension is not appropriate for lagoon #1 at facility #25-29 (Douglas Cowan
Farms), Big Lagoon at facility # 31-162 (Glade Ridge), Lagoon-I at facility #40-27 (David Murphrey
Farm), Finishing lagoon at facility# 51-07 (Donald Byrd Farm), Lagoon #2 at facility# 51-46 (Sandy
Ridge), Lagoon #2 at facility #82-576 (J&W Swine Co. Inc.), and Lagoon #1 at facility #82-622 (K&T
Farms). The next sludge survey for these lagoons should be performed before December 31, 2012.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at (919) 807-
6340.

Application Method: Irrigation
' -.. -· ·-;.: ·--,;--
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface 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
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.
FfLO
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe
manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates , leaching potentials, cation exchange
capacities, and avaialable water holding capacities. Normally waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre-cautions, waste may
be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. 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 OEM regulations. Wind
conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems . 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 to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting . Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems. This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this is
the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject the waste
in the future, you need to revise this plan . Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating
waste 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 ba.sed on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
3200 pigs X .4 tons waste/pigs/year = 1280 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
3200 pigs X .481bs PAN/pigs/year= 1536 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown,
soil type and suface application.

Acres show in each of the preceeding 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
ftelds listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables .
NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates . The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility
will produce approximately 243.2 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the
sludge that will need to be removed on a periodic basis. This figure is PAN when
broadcasting the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well special
equipment, -may be needed when you remove this sludge.
See the attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water.
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.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months . In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure be within 1.6 feet of the top of the dike.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2 . Failure to apply the recommended rates and
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.

PLANS & 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. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every
-~ay_the: discha_rge CQnti!l_ues. _____ ... _ _ _ __ __________ .. _ _
2. The Field Office must have documentati on in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long term access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste . If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide NRCS with a copy
of a written agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility. 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, climate conditions, and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients .
4 . Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Manag~ment System (RMS) or
an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 1 0 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used where runoff leaves
the field . These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by OEM. (See FOTG
Stantard 393-Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim R iparian Forest Buffers).
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" in the NRCS Technical Reference -
Environment file 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 pending should occur in order to control conditions conducive
to odor or flies and to provide uniformity of application.
8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface i s frozen.
9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is
not covere d with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth.
10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winte r for spring planted crops on soils with
a high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
mini mum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up release d nutrients. Waste shall
not be appl ied more than 30 days prior to planting of a c rop on bare soi l.
11 . Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply w ith t he following :
th e outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon t hat is a
comoonent of a swin e farm s hall be at le ast 50 feet from anv res id enti al oro oe rtv boundarv
Page 7 of 10
and from any perennial st ream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995}, shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 -Filter Strips)
12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 1 00 feet to wells .
--·-·-·----13. Animal Waste shall-not be applied closer-than 200 feet of dwellings other than those ----------·------------------·
owned by the landownwer.
14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public ri ght-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 croplands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways t hat discharge directly into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application 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.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and 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 . Lagoon benns
and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion , leakage or discharge.
*18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminat ed, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility
of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
*19 . Waste handling structures, piping , pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regu l ar maintenance checklist should be
kept on site .
20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for di rect
human consumption . However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption , it should only be applied as a preemergence with no other applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
t emporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to mainta in the liquid level between the marke rs . A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume fpr waste storage ponds.
22. Waste s h all be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate-determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production amd maintained. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) years. Poultry dry waste application records shall be mainta ined for three (3) years .
Waste application records fo r all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years .

Dear Keith & Theldon Tew:
OENR-FAYETIEVillE REGIONAL OFFICE
Subject: Certificate of Coverage No . A WS820622
K&TFarms
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson County
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 application received on February 20, 2003 and in accordance with the directive
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Keith &
Theldon Tew, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and
land application system in accordance with General Permit AWGIOOOOO. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number A WS820622 which expires October 1, 2004.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the K&T Farms, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater
than an annual average of 3200 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified in the
facility's Certified Animal Waste Manageme nt Plan (CA WMP). 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 g ilts 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 CA WMP, 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 modificati on to the CA WMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
Please carefully read this COC and the enclosed State General Permi t. Since thi s is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new r equirements in addition to most of the condition s contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a package containing the new and

The certification must be signed by the owner of the feedlot (and manager if
different from the owner) and by any technical specialist designated by the Soil
and Water Conservation Commission pursuant to lSA NCAC. 6F • 0001-.0005. A
technical specialist must verify by an on-site inspection that all applicable
design and construction standards and specifications are met as installed and
that all applicable operation and maintenance standards and specifications can
be met.
Although the actual number of animals at the facility may vary from time to time,
the design capacity of the waste handling system should be used to determine if
a farm is subject to the certification requirement. For example. if the waste
system for a feedlot is designed to handle 300 hogs but the average population
will be 200 hogs, then the waste management system requires a certification .
This certification is required by regulations governing animal waste management
systems adopted by the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) on December 10,
1992 (Title lSA NCAC 2H .0217).

WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
Coharie Hog Farm
Tuesday, May 13, 1997
Producer : Keith Tew
Fann Name: K&T Farms
1500 White Oak Ch Rd
Clinton,NC 28328
Telephone#: [phone]
Type of Operation : Wean to Feeder Swine
Number of Animals : 3200 pigs design capacity
Application Method: Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent
pollution of surface 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
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 . Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
contents of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are
important as they have different infiltration rates , leaching potentials , cation exchange
capacities, and avaialable water holding capacities . Normally waste shall not be applied to
land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special pre-cautions, waste may
be applied to land eroding at up to 1 0 tons per acre per year. 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 OEM regulations . Wind
conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor problems . To
maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for
polluti on, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more
than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or dis king will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems . This plan is based on waste application through irrigation for this is
the manner in which you have chosen to apply your waste. If you choose to inject the waste
in the future . you need to revise this plan . Nutrient levels for injecting waste and irrigating
waste 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. Attached you will find information on proper sampling
techniques, pre paration, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for ananlysis. This waste
utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.
Page 1 of 10
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
3200 pigs X .4 tons waste/pigs/year= 1280 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
3200 pigs X .48 lbs PAN/pigs/year= 1536 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown,
soil type and suface application.

Acres show in each of the preceeding 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
fields listed may, and most likely will be, more than the acres shown in the tables.
NOTE: The Waste Utilization Plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of
sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nurturient rich and will require precautionary
measures to prevent over application of nutrients or other elements . Your production facility
will produce approximately 243.2 pounds of plant available nitrogen (PAN) per year in the
sludge that will need to be removed on a periodic basis . This figure is PAN when
broadcasting the sludge. Please be aware that additional acres of land, as well special
equipment, may be needed when you remove this sludge .
See the attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of waste water.
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.
Your facility is designed for 180 days of temporary storage and the temporary storage must
be removed on the average of once every 5.92 months. In no instance should the volume of
waste being stored in your structure be within 1.6 feet of the top of the d i ke .
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsiblity of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amC?unts 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.

PLANS & 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 applicat ion. Any
discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject
to assessment of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Division of Water Quality for every
day the discharge continues.
2. The Field Office must have documentation in the design folder that the producer either
owns or has long term access to adequate land to properly dispose of waste . If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste , he shall provide NRCS with a copy
of a written agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing
him/her the use of the land for waste application for the life expectancy of the production
facility . 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, climate conditions , and level of
management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4. Animal waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS) or
an Alternative Conservation System (ACS). If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater
than 1 0 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used where runoff leaves
the field . These filter strips will be in addition to "Buffers" required by OEM . (See FOTG
Stantard 393 -Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim Riparian Forest Buffers).
5. 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 .
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" in the NRCS Technical Reference -
Environment file 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 pending should occur in order to control conditions conducive
to odor or flies and to provide uniformity of application .
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.
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 a crop on bare soil.
11 . Any new swine facility sited on or after O ctober 1 , 1995 shall comply with the following :
the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lago on that is a
comoonent of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from anv residential orooertv boundarv
Page 7 of 10
and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be applied
closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393-Filter Strips)
12 . Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells .
13. Animal Waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landownwer.
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 croplands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, except when applied at agronomic rates and the application 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.). If needed, special vegetation shall be
provided for these areas and 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 . Lagoon berms
and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence 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 illegal discharge, pollution and erosion.
*19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps , reels , etc., should be inspected on a regular
basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks , and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be
kept on site.
20 . Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human
consumption , it should only be applied as a preemergence with no other applica ti ons 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 fpr waste storage ponds.
22 . Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate-determining
element. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites
shall be used when these metals approach excess ive levels. pH shall be adjusted for
optimum crop production amd maintained . Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for
five (5) years . Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for three (3) years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years .

23 . Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina Department of
Agriculture regulations .

I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications and the operation and
maintenance precedures estalished in the approved animal waste utilization plan for the farm
named above . I (we) know that any expansion to the existing design capacity of the waste
treatment and/or storage system or construction of new facil it ies will require a new utilization
plan and a new certification to be submitted to OEM before the new animals are stocked.
I (we) understand that I must own or have acces to equipment, primarily irrigation equipment,
to land apply the animal wast e described in this waste utilization plan . This equipment must
be available at the appropriate pumping time such that no discharge occurs from the lagoon
in a 25-year 1-day storm event. I also certify that the waste will be applied on the land
according to this plan at the appropriate times and at rates that no runoff occurs.

This plan wrll be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing, or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location for
all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes . Depending on the s ituation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A . Lagoon over flow-possible solutions are:
a Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b . Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate .
c . Stop all flows to the lagoon irrunediatel y.
d . Call a pumping contractor.
e. Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon .
B: Runoff from waste application field-actions include:
a . Immediately stop waste application.
b . Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c . Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d. Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that caused the runoff.
e . Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C: Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers-action include:
a. Stop recycle pump .
b . Stop irri g ation pump.
c. Close val ves to el iminate further dischanze.
d . Repair all leaks prior to restart ing pumps~
D : Leakage fr om flush systems, houses, solid separators-action include:
a. Stop recycle pump .
b. Stop ir rigation p ump .

3200 pigs X .4 tons waste/pigs/year = 1280 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
3200 pigs X .48 lbs PAN/pigs/year= 1536 PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan time and have appropriate
equipment to apply the waste in a timely manner.
The following acreage will be needed for waste application based on the crop to be grown.

NOTE : The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N
requirments. Beginning in 1996 the Coastal Zone Management Act will require farmers in
some eastern counties of NC to have a nutrient management plan that addresses all

Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam.
Fescue or common berrr.udagrass are the most common vegetative
covers. The vegetation should be fertilized each year, if needed, to
maintain a vigorous s:and. The amount of fertil izer applied should b€
based on a soils tes:, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain
a soils test each year, the lagoon embankment and surrounding are:.s
shou !d be ferril ized with 800 pounds per ac:-e of 1 0-1 0-1 0 , or
equivalent.
3rus~ and trees on the embank111er.t must be controlied. This may be
done by mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of
t!-lese oract ices. TC:is should be done at !east once a year and
poss ibiy twice ir. years th;:.t weat~er cond i ~ions are favoraole fer

NOTE: If vegetation is cJntrol!ed by sprayir:g, the herbicide must not be allowed to e~ter
