NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This plan is based on a 20% reduction in nitrogen since pumping occurs from the second
stage lagoon . Acreages will be cleared in the spring of 2006 and coastal bermuda will be
sprigged in the spring of 2007. A winter annual will be planted in the fall of 2006 for any
needed application. Acreages are based on an irrigation design completed May 1 ,2006. Any
inactive lagoon will be monitored and maintained in the same manner as the new lagoons.
Clearly marked lagoon guages will be placed in any inactive structure to delineate the
required 19" freeboard level. Applcations of contents from inactive lagoons will be analyzed
and land applied to the fields in this waste plan at agronomic rates until these lagoons are
properly decommissioned.

Attention: Mr. Paul Sherman
Dear Mr. Shennan:
May 1, 2006
Mr. Scott Byrd is under agreement with two parties in Sampson County to purchase
adjacent properties, one of which includes existing swine buildings and lagoons. The
facility previously operated as a 740 sow farrow to finish swine operation (1,048,580
Lb. Steady State Uve Weight), registered as Fadlity #82-669 and known as the Hayne
Farm. The facility was operated until approximately 1993 and has since been empty.
Mr. Byrd has an option to purchase the property with buildings and lagoons induded
and now desires to upgrade existing lagoons and buildings to accommodate 12,000 pigs
wean-feeder (3~,000 Lb SSLW).
Mr. Byrd requests issuance of a General Permit based on existing facilities and lagoons,
with much lower animal density than previously operated. Buildings will be
reconstructed to meet modern requirements in the same location as existing structures.
Two existing lagoons are to be improved and brought up to current design standards
and operated as a two-stage treatment/storage system; Mr. Byrd intends to eventually
close other existing lagoons to reduce the potential for environmental impact from the
site. An application is included, along with all components of a CAWMP except items
pertaining to the Swine Farm Siting Act, since this is an existing facility.
Due to site conditions, additional design detail and/or modifications to the lagoon
design are to be incorporated into final design pending permitting. Therefore, details
may be revised once the site modifications begin.
Thank you for your consideration, and if you have any questions regarding the technical
or design aspects of the proposed updated facilities, please do not hesitate to contact
me.
Sincerely,
R. Gregory Swain, P.E.

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 180 days storage for:
(1) waste from animals and (2) excess rainfall after evaporation. Also
included is storage for the 25 yr -24 hr storm for the l ocation and a
heavy rain factor. 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 h eavy rain
factor and 25 yr rainfall will not be a factor to consider in an annual
pumping cycle, but this storage volume must always be available.
The waste produced by the animals shall be utilized in accordance with
an approved waste utilization plan. Highly visible markers shal l be
installed to mark the upper and lower elevations of the temporary
storage (pumping volume). Pumping shall be done as necessary to
maintain the liquid level between these markers.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions permit, such
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.

9. Remove undesirable vegetative growth and floating or lodged d e bris.
10. All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
outlets when not included as par t of the design temporary storage.
11. After five years the waste treatment lagoon shall be checked for
sludge accumulation annually . If sludge has encroached into t he
treatment volume, the sludge will be removed and applied at agronomic
rates based on analysis of the sludge. Treatment volume must have
a minimum of 4 feet of depth free of sludge at all times.
12. In December 1992, the Environme ntal Manage ment Commission (EMC)
in North Carolina revi sed water quality regulations that address
animal operations . These rules became effective on February 1,
1 993 (1 5A NCAC 2H .0200). This animal operation s hall be operated
within t h e requirements of these rules and regulations.
13. Pipes that are used for recycling effluent to use as f lush water
and irrigation intakes must be placed 18 inches below the surface and
as far from the inl et discharge pipes as possible in order to provide
a c l eaner effluent for flushing and to redu ce odors wh en irrigating on
l a nd. Wh e n these p ipes are placed t hrough the embankment, they shou ld
be installed no more than two feet below top of embankment and not in
t h e highest section of fill. The pipe trench shall be compacted with
c layey material or other material as approved by an engineer.

SPECIFICATI ONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WA STE TREATMENT LAGOONS
FOUNDATION PREPARATION:
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building p ad shall be
cleared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush , b ou lders ,sod and rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will be made o f all debris . The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should b e stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad areas. Afte r stripping, the foundation area o f the
lagoon embankment and b uilding pad shall be thoroughly loosened pri or
to placing the first lift of fi l l materia l to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHF ILL PLACEMENT:
The comple ted excavat i o n and earthfill shall conform to th e lines,
grades, and eleva tion s shown on the plans. Earthf i ll materia l shal l
be free of material such as sod, roots, froze n s oil , stones over
6 inches in diame ter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fi l l. The fill
s ha l l be bro u ght up in approx imately horizontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose and prior to c ompa ct ion. Ea ch l ayer
will be compacted by complete coverage wi th the hauling and spreading
equipment or standard tamping rolle r or other equivalent method.
Compaction equipment s hall travel in a direction parallel to the main
axis of the fi l l. Clayey soils shall be compacted with a "sheepsfoot "
or tamping rolle r. Compaction of the fill ma teri a l shall be i n accord-
ance with the specifi ed requirements for compaction and moi s ture .
For the embankment, us e the more impervious materials from the required
excavations. Construction of fi ll heights shal l include 5 percent for
settlement. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an i mpou ndmen t
ca pacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall u nde r the jurisdiction of t he NC
Dam Safety Law. Th e he i ght is defined as the difference in elevation f r<
constructed h eight t o the downstream toe of t he dike.
Precautions shal l be taken during construction to prevent excessive
erosion and sedimen tation .
LINER: TH E MINIMUM REQUI RED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1 .7 ft.
NOTE: LINERS (PARTIAL OR FULL} ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS

ENCOUNTERED DURI NG CONSTRUC TION . A TYPICAL CROS S SECTION OF TH E L INER
IS I NCLUDED IN THE DESI GN WHEN L I NERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT .
When areas of unsuitable material are encountered, they will be ove r-
excava ted below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
perpendicular to the fi ni sh grade . The foun dat i o n shall be backfi lled
as specified to grade wi th a NR CS approved material (ie-CL,SC ,CH).
REFER TO THE SO ILS INVE S T IGATION INFORMATI ON IN T HE PLANS FOR SPECIAL

soil i s kneaded in the ha nd it will f orm a ball which does not
readily separate. Water shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper
moisture content d uring placement o f the liner .
Water content during plac e ment .
The maximum water conte n t relates to t he soil mate ria l being too wet
for efficient use of haul ing equipment and proper compaction. Proper
compaction of the liner includes placement in 9 inch lifts and
compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum ASTM D698 Dr y Uni t
Weight o f the liner material unless otherwise spec ified. When smooth
or hard, the previous lift s h a l l b e scarified and moistened as needed
befo re placement of the next l ift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used f or the
liner, is the efficient constru c tion processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment i n an estab-
lished patt ern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction process. For most clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller.is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
Th e soi l liner shall b e protected from the discharge of wast e outlet
pipes. This can be d one by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or u sing flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are s y nthe tic liners and ben tonit e sealant .
Wh en these are specified, additional construction specificatio ns are
inc luded with this Con struction S p ecification
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff trench shall be constructed under the embankment area when
shown on a typical cross section in the plans. The final depth of the
c u toff trench shall be determined by observation of t he foundation
ma t erials .
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and othe r b are const ructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as poss ible a fter construc -
t i o n according to the seeding s p e cifi ca tions. Top soi l should be placed
o n areas of the dike and pad to be seed e d. Tempo rary seeding or mulch
s hall b e used if the recomme nded p e rmanent vegetation is o ut of season
da t es for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be establ ished as s oon
as possible during the next pe riod o f approved seedi ng da t es.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAIN S
When s p ecified, the cont r actor shall construct a n observa tion trench
a l ong the entire leng th of the e mbankment to a minimum of five fe et
in depth. The trench s hall have a bott om width adequate to acc omodate
t he equipment used for excavation , backfill, and compactio n operat i o ns
a nd the side slopes shall b e 1:1 or flatter. When ti l e drains a re

encountered, the tile shall be removed to a minimum of 15 fee t beyond
the downstream embankment toe as measured perpendicular
to the embankment. If a tile line exists above the embankment
it shall be rerouted around the lagoon in an approved location.
Backfilling and compaction in the trench shall be in accordance
with the EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT requirements.
BOTTOM AND EDGES
The bottom of all lagoons shall be approximately level. The side
slopes shall be uniform from top to bottom. Scarify the bottom and
side slopes of the lagoon a minimum depth of six inches and compact
with a "sheepsfoot"·or tamping roller to decrease the permeability
of the finished bottom and side slopes .
QUALITY ASSURANCE
During construction of the earth embankment, a qualified i nspect o r
as designated by the designer must b e on site during construction
as necessary to verify proper construction. Testing will be required
as deemed necessary by the ins pector and/or designer.
During construction of a clay liner, a qualified construction
inspector as designated by t he designer mu st be on site during con-
struction as necessary to verify the liner is installed in accordance
with NRCS South National Technica l Center (SNTC)
Techni c al Note716 (Revised September 1993). In the absence
of supervision of construction by a qualifie d inspector, the
l ine r must be tested to verify a maximum hydraulic conductivity
of 0 .000001 .25 em/sec.
When test ing is r equired, the owner will be responsible for f urnish-
ing t est results and certi ficat ion that the const ruct ion me ets
the design requirements. Any tests and certification should be
performe d by a c e rtified laboratory.

Scott Byrd
Scott Byrd Nursery 82-669
850 Straw Pond School Rd
Newton Grove,NC 28366
(910} 567-4500
Type of Operation : Wean to Feeder Swine
Number of Animals: 12000 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 DEM regulations . Wind
conditions should also be cons idered 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 th is 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, 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.)
12000 pigs X .4 tons waste/pigs/year = 4800 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN) PRODUCED PER YEAR
12000 pigs X .384 lbs PAN/pigs/year = 4608 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 912 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 ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture
content, soil structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application
amount should not exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of
irrigation nor should the plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the
crop.
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 1.58 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.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This plan is based on a 20% reduction in nitrogen since pumping occurs from the second
stage lagoon. Acreages will be cleared in the spring of 2006 and coastal bermuda will be
sprigged in the spring of 2007. Winter annuals will be planted in the fall of 2006 for any
needed application . Acreages are based on an irrigation design completed May 1,2006.

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
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 10 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 DEM. (See FOTG
Stantard 393-Filter Strips and Standard 390 Interim Riparian 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 ponding 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 October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following :
the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary

and from any perennial stream or river (other 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 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 wash down 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 applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume 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 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 maintained for three (3)
years . Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for five (5) years.

This plan wiD be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing, or running off s ite. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every e ffort 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 s ome action items y ou should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes. Depending on the situation, this may or may not be
possible. Suggested responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow-possible solutions are:

Scott Byrd Farm
Dear Mr. Byrd:
Animal Waste Management System
Sampson County
In accordance with your permit application request received on May 5, 2006, we are hereby forwarding to
you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Scott Byrd, authorizing the operation of the subject
animal waste management system in accordance with General Permit AWGIOOOOO .
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Scott Byrd Farm, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no
greater than an annual average of 12,000 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as specified
in the facility 's Certified Animal Waste Management P lan (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 o f 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 . Purs uant 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 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 package containing the new and
revised forms used for record keeping and reporting. Please pay 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 Utili zation Plan is
inaccurate y ou will need to· have a new Waste Utilization Plan developed.

Scott Byrd Nursery is a contract nursery facility with two-stage anaerobic lagoon system providing
treatment and temporary storage of wastewater. The Waste Utilization Plan for this farm is
develo ped by another t echnical specialist. Waste is utilized on this farm by a cropping system
comprised ofHybrid Bermuda Grass Hay overseeded with small grain. This plan is to verify
wettable acres and establish permanent irrigation systems for designated spray areas.

TOTAL 26.6
The total land available for land application of wastewater is approximately 2 7 acres. Ofthis
acreage, approximately 16.5 acres can be effectively irrigated by the combination hard hose traveler
and solid set systems design. Installation and operation of this irrigation system design must verify
minimum setbacks and buffers, such as distances from public use lands, surface waters, wells,
residences, etc.
Land Application System
Traveler equipment shall consist of a Reel Rain Model 1 030 hard hose t raveling gun with 965 feet
of3" hose. A 1.08" ring nozzle shall be specified for the Nelson SR150 big gun provided with the
traveler unit. Wetted diameter used in design is based on 900/o of manufacturer's data at 60 psi
nozzle pressure, or 9()0/o of300' = 270'. Manufacturer's data indicates a flow rate of 182 gallons
per minute (gpm) for these parameters.
Solid set equipment shall consist of Senninger 7025RD-l -l"M sprinklers with #24 (3/8") nozzles,
all full circle spray patterns. The wetted diameter of the specified sprinkler is approximately !66
feet at 6' height, and the flowrate is 31 .1 gpm at an operating pressure at the sprinkler of 6 0 pounds
per square inch (psi). Using a common spacing of 60% of the wetted diameter requires a spacing of
approximately 1 0 0 feet. Spacing on all sprinklers is 1 00 feet between sprinklers along each lateral
and between each lateral This spacing should provide a coefficient of uniformity of approximately
78%. The solid set area shall be valved to operate in two zones of 6 sprinklers each, for t o tal flow
rate of 187 gpm.
Pump shall be specified to meet minimum flow rate of 187 gpm at 244ft Total Dynamic Head. If
diesel engine unit is utilized, a recommended minimum of25 HP should be used or approximately
21 HP electric motor.
New underground main supply line shall be constructed of bell and gasketed 6" class 200 PVC pipe.
Approximately 1,920 feet of pipe will be required. Additionally, for the solid set system,
approximately 300 feet of 3" pipe and 530 feet of2" pipe are required. All fittings shall be
constructed of Schedule 80 PVC and solvent soldered. A 6" ground entry shall be installed adjacent
to lagoon for connecting to the main supply line. The lagoon riser shall be equipped with a 2"
sweep and a 2" air relief to allow any air in the lines to escape without causing damage to the
system.
Air relief valves s hall also be attached at the ends of mains to prevent damage to the system from
water hammer. These devices shall be installed at locations and elevations to prevent drainage and
uncontrolled runoff during shutdown.
Hydrants shall be installed according to the specifications shown on the hydrant installation detail
of Appendix B of this document. Thrust blocks shall be placed around all entry points, hydrants,
tees, ells, valves, and ends oflines.
Travel lane start and stop points shall be clearly marked. All required buffers/set backs shall be
verified and clearly marked to prevent application in restricted areas, such as near wells, surface
water, residences, public road right-of-ways, etc.
At startup, the operator should always make certain that the water bas an outlet to prevent damage
to the pump and supply lines. A butterfly valve shall be placed on the discharge side of the flex
assembly to allow the pumping unit to be disconnected without draining the supply l ine.
Wastewater Application Specifications
The following table summarizes the characteristics of the given soil types for this farm:
Table 2: Site Soil Characteristics
Soil Type Slope Cropping Regime Precip. MaL App. Irrig. Acres
Rate Depth
Autreyviille (Au) 0-3% Bermuda Grass/ .60 .95 16.61
Small Grain 0 /S
The NRCS advises 0.60" maximum precipitation rate with cover crop such as Bermuda grass on
these soils. Since calculated PR = 0.30-1.0" with specified equipment, caution should be used to
avoid ponding or runoff at the higher rates. As a further precaution to ponding and runoff: the depth
of application should be limited to a maximum of 0 . 5", and if ponding is observed, traveler speed
should be increased to decrease application depth.
The operator may operate the system at the start of the pull in the stationary positio n fo r
approximat ely 15 minutes to allow thorough application at the start end. However, this practice
should only be done under constant monitoring to ensure no ponding o r runoff o ccurs.
2
Since lagoons are designed for 180 days oftemporary storage, it is important that pumping occur
regularly~ with the application windows conforming to Nutrient Management Plan criteria for the
applicable crop. Ahhough the operator is encouraged to irrigate as often as conditions permit,
another application of wastewater must not be applied until the previous application has been
utilized through evapotranspiration. If there are no rainfall events after the last application, the
required time until a subsequent application may be made is usually 3 to 5 days. This time period is
an estimate, however, and will vary with climate and local weather conditions.
During the winter months, when temperatures are likely to fall below freezing, the system may need
to be drained to prevent damage from expansive freezing. The recommended depth to bury all
supply lines is a minimum of30 inches. Water should not freeze at this depth in the location of this
irrigation system. To prevent damage, all pipes above the 30 inch bury depth should be drained.
Likewise, the pump, suction line, and discharge line should be drained when freezing temperatures
are likely to occur.
System Maintenance
In order that the system may perform efficiently and correctly, all components must be maintained
and cared for. Sprinkler nozzle and air relief valves should be checked periodically to ensure that
they are operating properly. Pressure gauges should be checked regularly. Although it is not
necessary that the pump be kept under sheher, it is highly recomme nded that it be protected from
the elements as much as possible. Any broken or damaged hydrants should be repaired as soon as
possible. It is recommended that hydrants be kept clearly visible and marked to prevent breakage.
It is a good practice to perform a routine inspection of all equipment each time before operating the
irrigation system If a problem is found during operation, such as a leak, immediately shut the
system down and make the necessary repairs. If a leak or problem causes runoff of wastewater, the
owner is required to follow the emergency action plan designed for the fucility, and any regulatory
requirements for proper notification.
Irrigation system should be calibrated annually to verify proper operating pressure, spray diameter,
and flow. Standard calibration procedures should follow NC Cooperative Extension Service
Technical Bulletin AG-553-2, "Field Calibration Procedures for A.illmal Wastewater Application
Equipment-Hard Hose and Cable Tow Traveler", or other approved methods.
Accurate record keeping is a critical component of properly managing this irrigation system.
Operating times, nutrient content of the wastewater, and operational pressures should be recorded to
maintain accurate application rates. The North Carolina Certificat ion Training for Operators of
Animal Waste Systems Manual contains record keeping forms suited to this purpose. This
infonnation is also useful in determining maintenance required and needed adjustments to keep the
irrigation system operating as specified in this design. Irrigation equipment should be calibrated
ru;mually and maintained in good working order.
Pipe Installation
All pipes are to be bell and gasket class 200 PVC plastic. All fittings are to be Schedule 80 PVC as
manufactured by Harco, or equiv alent. Underground pipes shall hav e a minimum cover o f 30
inches to prevent damage to pipe by equipment traffic and livestock. Backfill over pipes is to be
compacted when piping is installed. Concrete thrust blocks must be installed at all elbows, tees,
3
gate valves, and end hydrants. The point of ground entry of supply lines should also have thrust
blocks installed (the inlet to the main supply line). Refer to Table 6 in this document for thrust
block specifications.
Solid Set Irrigation Sprinkler Settings and Wettable Acres
This system is designed to utilize Senninger 7025 impact sprinklers equipped with #24 (3 /8")
nozzles. These sprinklers are of single nozzle design with a 25° trajectory. This system design
includes 11 full circle spray patterns to be operated in two zones of 6. Table 3 outlines the
parameters for each spray zone.
The precipitation rate for each spray pattern was calculated and is shown in Table 3. Limiting the
application depth to 0.5" should allow Autrville soils to handle the design PR without ponding or
runoff

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 n~rients 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 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 based 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.}
12000 pigs X .4 tons waste/pigs/year = 4800 tons
AMOUNT OF PLANT AVAILABLE NITROGEN (PAN} PRODUCED PER YEAR
12000 pigs X .3841bs PAN/pigs/year= 4608 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.

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 912 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 1.58 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 provides as a guide for establishing application rates and amounts.

NARRATIVE OF OPERATION
This plan is based on a 20% reduction in nitrogen since pumping occurs from the second
stage lagoon . Acreages will be cleared in 2006 and coastal bermuda will be sprigged in the
spring of 2008. Acreages are based on an irrigation design completed 3/5/08. Any inactive
lagoon will be monitored and maintained in the same manner as the new lagoons . Clearly
marked lagoon gauges will be placed in any inactive structure to delineate the required 19"
freeboard level. Applcations of contents from inactive lagoons will be analyzed and land
applied to the fields in this waste plan at agronomic rates until these lagoons are properly
decommissioned.

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
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 property dispose of waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to property 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 ~pectancy 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 10 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 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 ponding 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, OF 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 October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
the outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is appl ied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other that an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal waste
Page& of9
I '
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, drai nageways, 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 directiy 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 applications of
animal waste during the crop season.
*21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark
the maximum storage volume 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 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 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.

Re: Scott Byrd Nursery Temporary Certification
Dear Ms. Blanton:
April 21, 2007
REC(\"~ED
APR 2' ID1
nl t.'' ·A 'I'El'ffi1LLE REGIONAl OFACE
I have discussed the current situation with Mr. Srott Byrd regarding his desire to establish
current available storage capacity as a means of receiving approval to delay completion of
sprayfields and irrigation system.
Due to weather and rontractor delays, the second stage lagoon which comprises all the
temporary storage is not complete, but Mr. Byrd indicates that he has a new contractor working
to complete it within the next few weeks. Also, he has been told by local NRCS that he could
receive cost-share on his permanent irrigation system in January, so he would like to delay
installation until next spring to take advantage of this.
We have checked the current liquid level in the Stage 11agoon on 4/20 at 6.8', and the
enclosed lagoon design document uses this elevation as a bottom to calculate remaining volume
available in this lagoon. Based on design generation of waste, daily fresh water waste, a full 25
year-24 hour storm event, and historical rainfall from May through September, there is
suffident volume available in Stage 1 for 5 additional months (150 days). Also, during this
time, the Stage 2 lagoon will be completed, which includes all temporary storage for the full180
days.
Based on these calculations, Mr. Byrd should have sufficient capadty until March or April of
2008 before needing to land apply effluent. However, he will establish a crop and document
the availability of equipment to temporarily apply using a traveling gun in the areas indicated on
the plan enclosed. I have noted on this plan the amount of waste generation or rainfall that
each inch of application would handle in case this becomes necessary due to excessive inputs.
Should you have any questions or need further clarification of temporary situation, please don't
hesitate to call me.
Sincerely,

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 rt 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 based 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.

OE:Nft ~ fAYEmVILLE REGIONAL OffiCi
This ~etter is in response to your request for a determination that the above referenced swine farm
may be reactivated. This facility filed a registration with the Division on August t'8, 1993 for
740 sows farrow to finish (1,048,580 pounds Steady State Live Weight). It is our understanding
that the facility has been out of business for over four ( 4) years and the animal waste lagoons
have not been closed. Based on the information you have provided, it is our opinion that this
facility is not subject to the Swine Farm Moratoria an.d is eligible to apply for a permit to operate
the animal waste m-anagement system at original registered production levels not to exceed the
above referenced SSLW.
The animal waste management system must be designed and constructed in accordance with
current NRCS standards and must meet all applicable siting criteria as set forth in the Swine
Farm Siting Act. An example of the NRCS standards that must be met is NC-NRCS
Conservation Practice Standard Code 359, Waste Treatment Lagoon. A copy of the Swine Farm
Siting Act is enclosed for reference.
You should be aware that the Division of Water Quality was not authorized to administer
provisions of the Swine Farm Siting Act, which gives certain rights and protections to persons
owning property directly affected by its setbacks. The interpretation given above reflects DWQ
policies for administering our permitting program. If you have questions regarding the Swine
Farm Siting Act and neighboring properties, you shou1d consider consulting private Jegal
counsel.

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

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 typieal nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow additional waste to be applied. Provisions shall be made for the area receiving waste to
be flexible so as to accommodate changing waste analysis content and crop type. lime must
be applied to maintain pH in the optimum range for specific crop production.
This waste utilization plan, if carried out, meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H .0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission.

This plan does not include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
available nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the future, regulations may require farmers in some parts of North Carolina to have a nutrient
management plan that addresses all nutrients. This plan only addresses nitrogen.
In interplanted fields ( i.e. small grain, etc, interseeded in 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 early October. Drilling is
recommended over broadcasting. Bermudagrass should be grazed or cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

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 864 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 4320 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 14 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 34.56 acres of land. Please note that these
are only estimate$ 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 irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, soil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an Irrigation system is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in 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 responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in 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.

to the existing plan for this facility. The producer has experienced a
severe issue with common bermuda in portions of fields 1-3 and the entire
areas of zones 4-7. After consultation with NCDA agronomists, he has been
instructed to spray to kill the common bermuda present, and to resprig once
complete. Even though this process began in 2008, it will need to be
continued in 2009 to insure full destruction of the existing common. For this
reason, com will be planted in the effected areas as normal weed control
measures used for com will kill common bermuda. In addition, a post harvest
application of herbicide will be used to insure full destruction.
The nutrient balance shown is aggressive, using a 35% reduction for the
two stage lagoon present. This is tempered, however, with the fact that
current freeboards are well below design requirements and the existing
wastewater in the lagoons is far lower in nutrient content than would be
predicted . In addition, this farm has been operated at lower capacities
than are noted in the permit, and will continue to do so during this
time period.

NUTRIENT UTILIZATION PLAN
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
1 Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application.
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of 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 Animal 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 ponding 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.

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 Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
11 Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and 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.
12 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells .
13 Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned
by the landowner.
14 Waste shalf 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 cropland
provided the fields 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 vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate . Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible . Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge .
18 If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is
responsible for obtaining and implementing a •erasure 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 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 bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons . Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds .
22 Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually
at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate-determining
nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years .
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years .
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
23 Dead animals will be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.

DEN A-FAYEil FII'lLLt REG:Qt>!Al. Offi CE
Per our conversation on November 27, 2006, we are proceeding with conditional
certification of the site in order to allow animal population on December 4, 2006. As I
explained, the Phase I lagoon is completed and certified, with the Phase II lagoon still
under construction. Phase I lagoon (all treatment) with precharge volume still should
have minimum 90 days storage before overflow to the temporary storage lagoon.
Approximately 75°/o of the land application site is cleared and available for
establishment of coastal bermuda hay in the spring, and the remainder of the land in
the nutrient management plan is currently being cleared and prepared. We are
submitting the certification form with the requirement that crop must be established by
May 1, 2007. We are also specifying the same required date for completed installation
of the application equipment.
We are also including a copy of the completed PLAT assessment as required by the
permit. The original was sent to your office previously.
Thank you for your cooperation.

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 1 0 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 owa 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.

I ~
This plan is based on tha waste application method shown above. If you choose to change
methods in the future, you need to revise this plan. Nutrient levels for different application
methods are not the same.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content
for this type of facility. In some cases you may want to have plant analysis made, which could
allow adcfltional 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. Ume 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 include commercial fertilizer. The farm should produce adequate plant
availa.bfe nitrogen to satisfy the requirements of the crops listed above.
The applicator is cautioned that P and K may be over applied while meeting the N requirements.
In the Mure, 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 bennuda), 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. catue 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 definatety interfere
with stand of bennudagrass. 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 eartier. 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 cut to a height of
about two inches before drilling for best results.

The waste utilization plan must contain provisions for periodic land application of sludge at
agronomic rates. The sludge will be nutrient rich and 'INill require precautionary measures to
prevent over application of nutrients or other elements. Your production facility will produce
approximately 864 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 4320 pounds of plant
available nitrogen to utilize. Assuming you apply this PAN to hybrid bermuda grass hayland at the
rate of 300 pounds of nitrogen per acre, you will need 14 acreas of land. If you apply the sludge
to com at a rate of 125 pounds per acre, you will need 34.56 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.
APPUCATION OF WASTE BY IRRIGATlON:
The irrigation application rate should not exceed the intake rate of the soil at the time of irrigation
such that runoff or ponding occurs. This rate is limited by initial soil moisture content, soil
structure, sOil texture, water droplet size, and organic solids. The application amount should not
exceed the available water holding capacity of the soil at the time of irrigation nor should the
plant available nitrogen applied exceed the nitrogen needs of the crop.
If surface irrigation is the method of land application for this plan, it is the responsibility of the
producer and irrigation designer to ensure that an Irrigation system Is installed to properly
irrigate the acres shown in 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 responsibility of the producer and waste applicator to ensure that the spreader equipment
is operated properly to apply the correct rates to the acres shown in 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.

NUTRIENT 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.
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 property 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, recieving 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 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be aj>plied 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 f ield.
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 ponding should occur in order to control odor and
flies.
6 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the

(continued)
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.
Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils
with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be
held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients.
Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages
breaking dormancy.
Ally new swine facility sited on or after October 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property
boundary and canal. Arlimal 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.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those
owned by the landowner.
Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
Arlimal 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 cropland
provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical
specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that disc~arge
directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be apphed at
agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities , showers , toilets, sinks, etc., shall
not be discharged into the animal waste management system.

(continued)
A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas
(lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to
protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc.,
are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed
and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularty for evidence of
erosion, leakage, or discharge.
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.
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.
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 pre-plant with no further applications of animal
waste during the crop season .
Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the
temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be
managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to
mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds.
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-determ i ning
nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients,
resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in
the soil shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals
approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop
production. Soil and waste analysis records shall be kept for a minimum of five years.
Poultry dry waste application records shall be maintained for a minimum of three years.
Waste application records for all other waste shall be maintained for a minimum of five
years.
Dead animals wm be disposed of in a manner that meets North Carolina regulations.
