Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson Cour~ty
ln accordance with your request received on November 16 , 2006 to change the operation type and animal
numbers, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Huron L. Grimes,
Jr., authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit A WG 100000.
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to , the management
of animal waste from the Grimes Road Farms, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 5,836 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility's Certified Animal W a ste Management Plan (CA WMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or
Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be orie boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary,
they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a
rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009, and shall hereby void
Certificate of Coverage Number A WS820664 dated October 1, 2004, and shall be subject to the
conditions and limitations as specified therein . Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to
operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit,
the facility's CAWMP , and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required
monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste
production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this
COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the 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 Permit. Since this is a revised State
General Permit, it contains new requirements in addition to most of the conditions contained in the
previous State General Permit. Enclosed for your convenience is a packag e containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Pl ease pav careful attention to the record keeping
and monitoring conditions in this permit.

If your Waste Utilization Plan has been developed based on site-specific information, careful evaluation
of future samples is necessary. Should your records show that the current Waste Utilization Plan is
inaccurate you will need to have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.
The issuance of this COC does not excuse the Permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable
Jaws , rules, standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this permit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Permittee must submit
documentation to the Division demonstrating that all current NRCS standards are met prior to restocking
of the facility.
Per 15A NCAC 2H .0225(c) a compliance boundary is provided for the facility and no new water supply
wells shall be constructed within the compliance boundary. Per NRCS standards a 100 foot separation
shall be maintained between water supply wells and any lagoon, storage pond, or any wetted area of a
spray field.
Please be advised that any violation of the terms and conditions specified in this COC, the General Permit
or the CA WMP may result in the revocation of this COC, or penalties in accordance with NCGS 143-
215.6A through 143-215.6C including civil penalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Pennit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prio~ to expiration.
This COC is not automatically transferable. A name/ownership change application must be submitted to
the Division prior to a name change or change in ownership.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this COC are unacceptable, you have the right to
apply for an individual permit by contacting the staff member listed below for information on this
process. Unless such a request is made within 30 days, this COC shall be final and binding.
This facility is located in a county covered by our Fayetteville Regional Office. The Regional Office
Aquifer Protection Staff may be reached at [phone]. If you need additional informati on
concerning this COC or the General Permit, please contact J R Joshi at [phone].

Irrigation
The waste from your animal facility must be land applied at a specified rate to prevent pollution
of surface water and/or groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal waste should be used
to reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer required for the crops in the fields where the waste
is to be applied.
This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analyzed
before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant
nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown .
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize
the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient
content of the waste . Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize.
2 . Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials,
cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities .
3. Normally waste shall be applied to land eroding at less than 5 tons per acre per
year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but
less than 10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter strips are established .
4 . Do not apply waste on saturated soils , when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen.
Either of these conditions may result in runoff to surface waters which is not allowed
under DWQ regulations.
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and downwind odor
problems .
6 . To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential
for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than
30 days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy. Injecting the waste or
disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems.

This plan is based on the waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facmty. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. Lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

This plan does not in dude commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above .
The appUcator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future , regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in bermuda), 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 reach maturity , especially late in the season (i.e.
April or May). Shading may result if small grain gets too high and this will definately 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 the
time small grain is planted in the fall.
The ideal time to interplant small grain, etc, Is late September or earty October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to .a height of
about two inches before drilling for best resuHs.

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 420.192 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year will accumulate in the lagoon
sludge based on the rates of accumulation listed above.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 2100.96 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 ~unds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 7 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to corn at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 16.60768 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimates of the PAN produced and the land required to utilize that PAN. Actual values
may only be determined by sampling the sludge for plant available nitrogen content prior to application
Actual utilization rates will vary with soil type, crop, and realistic yield expectations for the specific
application fields designated for sludge application at time of removal.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATION:
The irrigatiofl application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the so~ 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 proper1y
irrigate the acres shown in the preceding table. Failure to apply the recommended rates and
amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
•This is the maximum application amount allowed for the soil assuming the amount
of nitrogen allowed for the crop is not over applied. In many situations, the application
amount shown cannot be applied because of the nitrogen limitation. The maximum
application amount shown can be applied under optimum soil conditions.
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 the
waste 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 res~nsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in the tables. Failure to apply
the recommended rates and amounts of nitrogen shown in the tables may make this plan invalid.
Call your technical specialist after you receive the waste analysis report for assistance in
determining the amount of waste per acre and the proper application prior to applying the waste.

1 Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited .
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the pr9ducer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide
evidence 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 waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Utilization Plan
when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of
application, recievinQ crop type, or available land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions , and
level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for
other nutrients.
4 AJ:Iimal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons
per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (See
USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393. Filter Strips).
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 land application field.
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste will be soil
incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled
crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur
during a season prone to flooding (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for
guidance).
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No pending should occur in order to control odor and flies .
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.

Dear Ron Grimes:
Subject: Notification for Wettable Acre Determination
Animal Waste Management System
Ron Grimes Farm
Facility Number 82-664 -
Sampson County
A leKer dated January 15 , I 999 was sent to advise you about concerns associated with Certified Animal
Waste Management Plans and the method by which the irrigated acres within the plans were calculated. Only
the acres that are wetted can be credited in the waste management plan as receiving waste application. Any
acreage within the plan that can not be reached by waste application equipment can not be used as part of your
plan.
An evaluation by Scan Faircloth on 7/28/99 was made to revie w the actual number of acres at your
facility that receive animal waste during land application. The e valuation of your facility has yielded one of
the following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X ".
Category 1:
~ The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a Jack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing Scott Faircloth the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination. Please submit this information to Scott Faircloth, at 225 Green Street, Suite
714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this Jetter. If you have any
questions please contact Scott Faircloth at (91 0) 486-1541 . If within 90 days you are
unable to provide Scott Faircloth with the information you are automatically required
to complete a Wettable Acre Determination as described by Category 2 below, within
180 days of receipt of this letter.

Category 2:
D Your facility has been identified by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
as a facility that may have ·overestimated the number of acres actually receiving animal
waste. Therefore, some or all of your fields may be exceeding the allowable loading rates
set in your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan.
In order to resolve this issue, please contact a designated Technical Specialist to have him
or her conduct a Wettable Acre Determination for your facility. The Technical Specialist must
be one that has been approved by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission to conduct
Wettable Acre Determinations. Many Technical Specialist with the N.C. Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil and Water Conservation Districts, the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Division of Soil and Water Conservation have received this special
designation. You may also contact a private Technical Specialist who has received this
designation, or a Professional Engineer.
All needed modifications to your Animal Waste Management System must be made and
the Wettable Acres Determination Certification must be returned to DWQ within the next
180 days. If the needed modifications are not made and if the form is not returned within the
required time, DWQ will be forced to take appropriate enforcement actions to bring this facility
into compliance. These actions may include civil penalty assessments, permit revocation,
and/or injunctive relief.
Once a Wettable Acre Determination has been completed, a copy of the attache·d Wettable
Acre Determination Certification must be submitted to the address listed on the form . Please
note that both the owner and the Technical Specialist must sign the certification. A copy of all
the Wettable Acre Determination documentation that applies to your Waste Utilization Plan
must be kept at your facility. DWQ and the Division of Soil & Water Conservation Staff will
review all documentation during their annual visit of your facility. An additional copy must by
kept on file at the local Soil & Water Conservation District Office. Please note that if you install
or modify your irrigation system, a designated Irrigation Specialist or a Professional Engineer
must also sign the Wettable Acre Determination Certification.
Please be advised that nothing in this· letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or
liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting
requirement.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact Sonya Avant of our
Central Office staff at [phone] ext. 571.

Senate Bill 1217, An Act to Implement Recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Study Commission on Agricultural
Waste , was en acted by the 1996 North Carolina General As sembly. This legislation requires owner of a certified
operator for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle,
75 or more horses, I ,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid waste management
system.
Our records indicate that the operator de signat ed as the Operator In Charge (OIC) for your animal waste
manageme nt system is no longer certified. Therefore, you must designate a properly certified animal waste
management system operator as the OIC for your facility. The enclosed designation form must be returned to this
office by April I , 2001. This office maintains a list of certified operators in your area if you need assistance in
locating a ce rtified operator.
Failure to de signate a properly certified Op e ra tor in Cha rge for your facility is a violation of N.C.G.S . 90A-47 .2
and 15A NCAC 8F .020J(a) and may result in the in itiation of enforcement action . Please be advised that nothing
in this letter should be taken as resolving you of the re sponsibility and liability for an y past or future violations for
your failure to have a properly certified Operator in Charge designated for your animal waste management system.
If you have que stions concerning this matter , or if this office can be of further assistance, please call Beth
Buffington at (919)733..0026, extension 313 .

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
This lagoon is designed for waste treatment {permanent storage) and
180 days of temporary storage. The time required for the planned
fluid level (permanent and temporary storage) to be reached may vary
due to site conditions, weather, flushing operations, and the amount
of fresh water added to the system.
The designed temporary storage consists of 160 days storage for:
{1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 year -24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from a given number of animals will be
fairly constant throughout the year and from year to year, but excess
rainfall will vary from year to year. The 25 year rainfall will not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum e levation is determined in eac h desian to begin
pumping :ina th~ i3 .:..., a::;_aL.y :. •• e VI.H.leL Ln:ei L vf pipe(;;) =rom.
4i~ ...... &bt·g •: ~) . If the outlet pipe is not installed at t h e elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be inst alled at this elevation
to indicate wh en pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain l agoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste wi thout
runoff or leaching.

Methods of appl icat ion i nclude solid set,
and traveling gun irrigation. Care should be

The following items are to be carried out:
,--.e t:> "' .. ,r e .Q
1. It is ...-rcngi"JL.-·!'eeeat.r._litrntl Lhat the treatment lagoon be pre-
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre-charging reduc es the concentrat ion of the ini ti al
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids should be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete,
flush buildings with recycled lagoon liquid . Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached waste utilization plan shall be fol l owed . This
plan recommends sampling and testing of waste (see attachment )
before land application.
3 . Begin temporary storage pump-out of the lagoon when fluid level
reaches the elevation 48.4 as marked by permanent marker . Stop pump-
out when the fluid level reaches elevation 46.0 Thi s temporary
storage, less 25 yr-24 hr storm, contains 50622.2 cubic feet or
378654 gallons.
SHEET 2 OF 2
4. The recommended maximum amount to apply per irriga t ion is
one {1) inch and the recommended maximum application rate is 0.3
inch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
5. Keep vegetation on the embankment and areas adjacent to the
lagoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
to maintain a vigorous stand.
6. Repair any eroded areas or areas damaged by rodents and
establish in vegetation .
7 . All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets.
B. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass vegetated buffe r around
waste utilization fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
not be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
residence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste s h all be applied ln a
manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways .
9. The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
pollutants into waters of the United States. The Department of
Environment, Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environ -
mental Management, has the responsibility for enforcing this law.

The waste from your animal fa c ili ty must be land applied at a
specified rate to prevent pollution of surface water and/or
groundwater. The plant nutrients in the animal wast e 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 was t e ut ilizati o n plan uses nitrogen as the limit i ng nutrient.
Waste should be analyzed before each application cycle. Annual soil
tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be
balanced for realist i c yields of the crop to b e grown.
Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization
plan i n order to maximize the fertilizer value of the wast e and to
ens ure t h at it is appl ied in an environmentally safe manner:
1. Always appl y 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, leachi ng potentials, cation exchange capacities, and
available water holding capacities.
3. Normally waste shall be app lied to land eroding at less than
5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land
eroding at 5 or more tons per acre annually, but less than
10 tons per acre per year providing that adequate filter
strips are established.

Either of these conditions
waters which is not allowed
Paae: 1
ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
5. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid drift and
downwind odor problems.
6 . To maximize the value of the nutrients for crop production
and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should
be applied to a growing crop or applied not more than 30
days prior to planting a crop or forages breaking dormancy.
Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and
reduce odor problems.
This plan is based on the waste application method shown above . If
you choose to change methods in the future, you need to revise this
plan. Nutrient levels for different applicati on methods are not the
same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on
typical nutrient content for this type of facility . Acreage
requirements should be based on the wa ste analysis report from your
waste management facility. In some cases you may want to have plant
analysis made, which could allow additional waste to be applied.
Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to be flexible
so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type.
Lime must be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific
crop production.
This waste u tilization plan, if carried out , meets the requirements
for compliance with lSA NCAC 2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission.
AMOUNT OF WASTE PRODUCED PER YEAR (gallons, ft3, tons, etc.)
200 sows x 19.9 tons waste/sows/year = 3980 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
200 sows x 26 lbs PAN/sows/year = 5200 lbs. PAN/year
Applying the above amount of waste is a big job. You should plan
time and h a ve appropriate equipment to app l y the waste in a timely
manner.
The following acreage wi l l be needed for waste application based on
the crop to be grown, soil type and surface application.

See attached map showing the fields to be used for the utilization of
animal waste.
SLUDGE APPLICATION:
The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land
application of sludge at agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient
rich and will require precautionary measures to prevent over application
of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 860 pounds of plant available nitrogen per year in the
sludge.
If you remove the sludge every 5 years, you will have approximately 4300
pounds of PAN to utilize. Assuming you apply this PA~ to hybrid
bermudagrass hayland at the rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you
will need 14.3 333333333 acres of land. If you apply the sludge to corn at
the rate of 12 5 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 34.4 acres
of land . Please be aware that these are only estimates o f the PAN and
land ne eded. Actual requirements could vary by 25% depending on your
sludge waste analysis, soil types, realistic yields, and applicat ion
methods.
APPLICATION OF WASTE BY IRR IGATION
The irrigation application rate should not exce ed the intake rate of the
soil at the time of irrigat ion such that runoff or pending occurs. This
rate is limited by i nitial soil moisture content, soil structure, soil
texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The app lication amount
should not exceed the ava ilable water holding c apacit y of the soil at the
time of irrigation nor should t he plant available nitrogen applied exceed
the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method o f land application for this plan,
it is the responsibi lity of the producer and irrigat i on designer to ensure
that an irrigation system is installed t o properly irrigate the acres
shown in Tables 1 and 2. Failure to appl y the recommended rates and

ANIMAL WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN
WASTE UTILIZATION PLAN AGREEMENT
Name of Far.m:RON GRIMES FARM
OWner/Manager Agreement
I (we) understand and will follow and implement the specifications
and the operation and maintenance procedures established 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 storage system or construction of new
facilities will require a new certification to be submitted to the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) before the new
animals are stocked. I (we) also understand that there must b e no
discharge of animal waste from this system to surface waters of the
state from a storm event less severe than the 25-year , 24-hour
storm. The approved plan will be filed on-site at the farm office
and at the office of the local Soil and Water Conservation District
and will be available for review by NCDWQ upon request.
