Dear Roy Young:
DENR-FAYEmVIlLE REGIONAL OFFICE
Subject: Certificate of Coverage No. A WS820679
Young Nursery #1 & #2
Swine Waste Collection, Treatment,
Storage and Application System
Sampson County
On June 11 , 2004, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) issued a revised State General
Permit for swine facilities. The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill
733 (Session Law 2003-28).
In accordance with your application received on February 20, 2003 and in accordance with the directive·
of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Roy
Young, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land
application system in accordance with General Permit A WG 1 00000. The issuance of this COC
supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number A WS820679 which expires October 1, 2004 .
This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management
of animal waste from the Young Nursery #I & #2, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity
of no greater than an annual average of 5200 Wean to Feeder swine and the application to land as
specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to
Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are
unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced
by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows ·
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2 009. Pursuant to this COC,
you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting
and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this
facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number
of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and
this COC and must be completed prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
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 monitorin g 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
laws , rules , standards, and ordinances (local, state, and federal), nor does issuance of a COC to operate
under this pennit convey any property rights in either real or personal property.
Upon abandonment or depopulation for a period of four years or more, the Pennittee 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 advi sed 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 ~nalties, criminal penalties, and injunctive relief.
If you wish to continue the activity permitted under the General Permit after the expiration date of the
General Permit, an application for renewal must be filed at least 180 days prior 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.

NUMBER OF ANIMALS: 5200
(D esign Capacity)
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 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. 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 . So il types are
important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials. cation exchange
capacities, and available water holding capacities . Normally waste shall not be applied to land
eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be
applied to land eroding at up to 1 0 tons per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it
is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either o( 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 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.
The estimated acres needed to apply the animal waste is based on typical nutrient content for
this type of fa cility . Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from
your waste management facility . Attached you will find information on proper sampling
te chniques, preparation, and transfer of wa s te samples to the lab for anal ysis.
This waste utilization plan , if carried out . meets the requirements for compliance with 15A NCAC
2H.0217 adopted by the Environmental Management Commission .

1 Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by ru no ff, d ri ft, manmade
conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during o pera tion or land a pplicati on .
Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is pro hib it ed.
2 There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer eit her owns o r ha s an
agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly ap ply th e w aste . If th e producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she sh all prov ide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who is within a reasonable prox imi ty, a llo wi n g him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility o f the owner o f th e facility to
secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a ch ang e in the o pera tion,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or availab le land.
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitro gen need s f o r re alis tic cro p
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical da ta , cl ima tic co ndition s, and lev el
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict th e rate of ap p li ca tio n for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 ton s per acre pe r year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons, but less tha n 10 ton s per a cre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff lea ves the fie ld. (See FOT G
Standard 393-Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after wa ste a pp l ication . Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation fi eld .
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be so il in corporated
on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservatio n tilled crops or grass l an d ,
the waste may be broadcast provided the application does no t occur d uring a season
prone to flooding. (See ''Weather and Climate in North Caro lina" for g uidan ce.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infil tra tio n rate suc h tha t r u noff
does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a meth od wh ich d oe s no t cause dri ft
from the site during application. No pending should occur in orde r to con tro l o dor or flie s.
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during ra infall eve nts , or wh en the
surface is frozen.

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
{continued)
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 potent ial for sal t damage
from animal waste should also be considered .
10 Waste nutrients shall not be appl ied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soil s 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 comp ly w ith 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 than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters . (See Standard 393-Fil ter Strip s).
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 dwell ings other th an those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a IT'anner not to reach other property and publ ic right-of-ways.
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or w etlands by
discharge or by over-spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist".
Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water
courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic r a tes in a
manner that courses no runoff or drift from the site.
16 Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers , toil et s, 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 ke pt 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 "closure plan" which will elim inate the
possibility of an illegal disch~rge, pollution and erosion.
19 Waste handling structures, piping pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regu lar
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 cro ps for direct
human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for di rect human
consumption it should only be applied pre-plant with no further applications animal was te

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 proper1y apply the waste. If the producer
does not own adequate land to properly dispose of waste, he/she shall provide a copy of
an agreement with a landowner who Is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the
use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to
secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation,
increase in the number of animals, method of utilization, or available land. · .
3 Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed , the nitrogen needs for realistic crop
yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level
of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for other
nutrients.
4 Animal waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste
may be applied to land that is eroding at 5 or more tons , but less than 10 tons per acre per
year providing grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field. (See FOTG
Standard 393-Filter Strip).
5 Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste
should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the irrigation field .
6 When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it will be soil incorporated
on conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland,
the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season
prone to flooding . (See "Weather and Climate in North Carolina• for guidance.)
7 Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff
does not occu r offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift
from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor or flies .
8 Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils , during rainfall events, or when the
surface is frozen.
PageS
REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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.
1 0 Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a
high potential for leaching. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a
minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients . Waste
shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking
dormancy.
11 Any new swine·facility sited on or after ·october 1, 1995 shall comply with the following:
The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a
component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary
and from any perennial stream or river (other than an irrigation ditch or canal. Animal
waste other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1, 1995), shall not be
applied closer than 25 feet to perennial waters. (See Standard 393 -Filter Strips).
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 ~han those
owned by the landowner.
14 Waste shall be applied in a f!lanner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways .
15 Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters. drainageways, or wetlands by
discharge or by over-spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands
provided they have been approved as a land application site by a wtechnical specialisr.
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 courses 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 .

REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
(continued)
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 "closure plan" which will eliminate the
possibility of an illegal disch~rge, 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

A letter dated January 15, 1999 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 Trent Allen on 3/5/99 was made to review the actual number of acres at your facility
that receive animal waste during land application. T he evaluation of your facility has yielded one of the
following two results as indicated by the box marked with an "X".
Category 1:
D The evaluation of your facility could not be completed due to a lack of information. Please
contact your Technical Specialist to assist in providing T re nt Allen the necessary
information to potentially exempt your facility from undergoing a complete wettable acre
determination . Please submit this information to Trent Allen , at 225 Green Street, Suite
714, Fayetteville, NC 28301, within in 90 days of the receipt of this letter. If you have any
questions please contact Trent Allen at [phone] . Hwithin 90 days you are unable
to provide Trent Allen 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:
~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 Detennination 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 attached 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.

Sampson County
In accordance with your application received on March 29, 2000, we are forwarding this Certificate of
Coverage (COC) issued to Roy Young, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection,
treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Pennit 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 Young Nursery #1 & #2, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of
no greater than 5200 Wean to Feeder and the application to land as specified in the Certified Animal
Waste Management Plan (CA WMP).
The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 30, 2003. Pursuant to this COC, you
are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as
specified in the General Permit, the facility's CA WMP, and this COC, with no discharge of wastes to
surface waters. An adequate system for co11ecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and
operational information must be established for this farm. Any ··increase in waste production greater than
the certified design capacity or increase in number of stocked animals above the number authorized by
this COC will require a modification to the CA WMP and this COC and shall be completed prior to
actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
The facility's CA WMP meets all requirements in place at the time of certification. However, it appears
that the irrigation system on site may not adequately cover all acreage listed in the Waste Utilization Plan.
The owner should address this inconsistency as soon as possible.
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.

System Calibration
Information presented in manufacturers charts are based on average operation
conditions with relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application rates change
over time as equipment gets older and components wear. In particular, pump wear tends
to reduce operating pressure and flow. With continued use, nozzle wear results in an
increase in the nozzle opening which will increase the discharge rate while decreasing the
wetted diameter.
You should be aware that operating the system differently than assumed in the design will
alter the application rate, diameter of coverage, and subsequently the application
uniformity. For example, operating the system with excessive pressure results in smaller
droplets, greater potential for drift, and accelerates wear of the sprinkler nozzle. Clogging
of nozzles can result in pressure increase. Plugged intakes or crystallization of mainlines
will reduce operating pressure. Operating below design pressure greatly reduces the
coverage diameter and application uniformity.
For the above reason, you should calibrate your equipment on a regular basis to ensure
proper application rates and uniformity. Calibration at least once every three years is
recommended. Calibration involves collecting and measuring flow at several locations in
the application area. Any number of containers can be used to collect flow and
determine the application rate. Rain gauges work best because they already have a
graduated scale from which to read the application amount without having to perform
additional calculations. However, pans, plastic buckets, jars, or anything with a uniform
opening and cross-section can be used provid~ the liquid collected can be easily
transferred to a scaled container for measuring.
For stationary sprinklers, collection containers should be located randomly throughout the
application area at several distances from sprinklers. For traveling guns, sprinklers
should be located along a transect perpendicular to the direction of pull. Set out
collection containers 25 feet apart along the transect on both sides of the gun cart. You
should compute the average application rate for all nonuniformity of the application. On a
windless day, variation between containers of more than 30 percent is cause for concern.
You should contact your irrigation dealer or technical specialist for assistance.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE PLAN
Proper lagoon management should be a year-round priority. It is especially important to manage
levels so that you do not have problems during extended rainy and wet periods.
Maximum storage capacity should be available in the lagoon for periods when the receiving crop is
dormant (such as wintertime for bermudagrass) or when there are extended rainy spells such as a
thunderstorm season in the summertime. This means that at the first sign of plant growth in the
later winter I early spring , irrigation according to a farm waste management plan should be done
whenever the land in dry enough to receive lagoon liquid . This will make storage space available in
the lagoon for future wet periods. In the late summer I early fall the lagoon should be pumped down
to the low marker (see Figure 2-1) to allow for winter storage. Every effort should be made to
maintain the lagoon close to the minimum liquid level as long as the weather and waste utilization
plan will allow it.
Waiting until the lagoon has reached its maximum storage capacity before starting to irrigated does
not leave room for storing excess water during extended wet periods. Overflow from the lagoon for
any reason except a 25-year, 24-hour storm is a v iolation of state law and subject to penalty action.
The routine maintenance of a lagoon involves the following:
• Maintenance of a vegetative cover for the dam. Fescue or common bermudagrass
are the most common vegetative covers . The vegetation should be fertilized each
year, if needed, to maintain a vigorous stand. The amount of fertilized applied should
be based on a soils test, but in the event that it is not practical to obtain a soils test
each ye ar, the lagoon embankment and surrounding areas should be fertilized with
800 pounds per acre of 10-10-10, or equivalent.
• Brush and trees on the embankment must be controlled. This may be done by
mowing, spraying, grazing, chopping, or a combination of these practices. This
should be done at least once a year and possibly twice in years that weather
conditions are favorable for heavy vegetative growth.
NOTE: If vegetation is controlled by spraying, the herbicide must not be allowed to enter the lagoon
water. Such chemicals could harm the bacteria in the lagoon that are treating the waste.
Maintenance inspections of the entire lagoon should be made during the initial filling of the lagoon
and at least monthly and after major rainfall and storm events. Items to be checked should include,
as a minimum, the following :
Waste Inlet Pipes, Recycling Pipes, and Overflow Pipes •• look for:
1 . separation of joints
2. cracks or breaks
3 . accumulation of salts or minerals
4. overall condition of pipes
2
Lagoon surface -look for:
1. undesirable vegetative growth
2. floating or lodged debris
Embankment -look for:
1. settlement, cracking, or "jug " holes
2. side slope stability -slumps or bulges
3. wet or damp areas on the back slope
4. erosion due to lack or vegetation or as a result of wave action
5. rodent damage
Larger lagoons may be subject to liner damage due to wave action caused by strong
winds . These waves can erode the lagoon sidewalls, thereby weakening the lagoon dam.
A good stand of vegetation will reduce the potential damage caused by wave action. If
wave action causes serious damage to a lagoon sidewall, baffles in the lagoon may be
used to reduce the wave impacts.
Any of these features could lead to erosion and weakening of the dam . If your lagoon has
any of these features, you should call an appropriate expert familiar with design and
construction of waste lagoons . You may need to provide a temporary fix if there is a
threat of a waste discharge. However, a permanent solution should be reviewed by the
technical expert. Any digging into a lagoon dam with heavy equipment is a serious
undertaking with potentially serious consequences and should not be conducted unless
recommended by an appropriate technical expert.
Transfer Pumps -check for proper operation of:
1. recycling pumps
2. irrigation pumps
Check for leaks, loose fittings, and overall pump operation. An unusually loud or grinding
noise, or a large amount of vibration, may indicate that the pump is in need of repair or
replacement.
NOTE : Pumping systems should be inspected and operated frequently enough so that ·
you are not completely "surprised" by equipment failure . You should perform your
pumping system maintenance at a time when your lagoon is at its low level. This will
allow some safety time should major repairs be required. Having a nearly full lagoon is
not the time to think about switching, repairing, or borrowing pumps. Probably, if your
lagoon is full, your neighbor's lagoon is full also. You should consider maintaining an
inventory of spare parts or pumps.
• Surface water diversion features are designed to carry all surface drainage
waters (such as rainfall runoff, roof drainage, gutter outlets, and parking lot
runoff) away from your lagoon and other waste treatment or storage
structures. The only water that should be coming from your lagoon is that
which comes from your flushing {washing) system pipes and the rainfall that
hits the lagoon directly. You should inspect your diversion system for the
following :
1. adequate vegetation
2. diversion capacity
3. ridge berm height
3
. '
.. .
Identified problems should be corrected promptly. It is advisable to inspect your system
during or immediately following a heavy rain . If technical assistance is needed to
determine proper solutions, consult with appropriate experts .
You should record the level of the lagoon just prior to when rain is predicted, and then
record the level again 4 to 6 hours after the rain (assumes there is no pumping). This will
give you an idea of how much your lagoon level will rise with a certain rainfall amount
(you m4st also be recording your rainfall for this to work). Knowing this should help in
planning irrigation applications and storage. If your lagoon rises excessively, you may
have an overflow problem from a surface water diversion or there may be seepage into
the lagoon from the surrounding land.
Lagoon Operation
Startup:
1. Immediately after construction establish a complete sod cover on bare soil
surfaces to avoid erosion.
2. Fill new lagoon design treatment volume at least half full of water before waste
loading begins, taking care not to erode lining or bank slopes .
3. Drainpipes into the lagoon should have a flexible pipe extender on the end of the
pipe to discharge near the bottom of the lagoon during initial filling or another
means of slowing the incoming water to avoid erosion of the lining.
4. When possible, beg in loading new lagoons in the spring to maximize bacterial
establishment (due to warmer weather).
5. It is recommended that a new lagoon be seeded with sludge from a healthy
working swine lagoon in the amount of 0.25 percent of the full lagoon liquid
volume. This seeding should occur at least two weeks prior to the addition of
wastewater.
6. Maintain a periodic check on the lagoon liquid pH. If the pH falls below 7 .0 , add
agricultural lime at the rate of 1 pound per 1000 cubic feet of lagoon liquid volume
until the pH rises above 7 .0. Optimum lagoon liquid pH is between 7.5 and 8 .0 .
7. A dark color, lack of bubbling, and excessive odor signals inadequate biological
activity. Consultation with a technical speci alist is recommended if these
conditions occur for prolonged periods, especially during the warm season .
Loading:
The more frequently and regularly that wastewater is added to a lagoon, the better the
lagoon will function. Flush systems that wash waste into the lagoon several times daily
are optimum for treatment. Pit recharge systems, in which one or more buildings are
drained and recharged each day, also work well .
• Practice water conservation m1mm1ze building water usage and spillage from
leaking waterers, broken pipes and washdown through proper ma intenance and water
conservation.
4
'· .
• Minimize feed wastage and spillage by keeping feeders adjusted . This will reduce the
amount of solids entering the lagoon.
Management:
• Maintain lagoon liquid level between the permanent storage level and the full
temporary storage level. ·
• Place visible markers or stakes on the lagoon bank to show the minimum liquid level
and the maximum liquid level. (Figure 2-1 ).
• Start irrigating at the earliest possible date in the spring based on nutrient
requirements and soil moisture so that temporary storage will be maximized for the
summer thunderstorm season. Similarly, irrigate in the late summer I early fall to
provide maximum lagoon storage for the winter.
• The lagoon liquid level should never be closer than 1 foot to the lowest point of the
dam or embankment.
• Don not pump the lagoon liquid level lower than the permanent storage level unless
you are removing sludge.
• Locate float pump intakes approximately 18 inches underneath the liquid surface and
as far away from the drainpipe inlets as possible.
• Prevent additions of bedding materials, long-stemmed forage or vegetation, molded
feed, plastic syringes, or other foreign materials into the lagoon.
• Frequently remove solids from catch basins at end of confinement houses or
wherever they are installed.
• Maintain strict vegetation, rodent, and varmint control near lagoon edges.
• Do not allow trees or large bushes to grow on lagoon dam or embankment.
• Remove sludge from the lagoon either when the sludge storage capacity is full or
before it fills 50 percent of the permanent storage volume.
• If animal production is to be terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and
implementing a closure plan to eliminate the possibility of a pollutant discharge.
Sludge Removal:
Rate of lagoon sludge buildup can be reduced by :
• proper lagoon sizing,
• mechanical solids separation of flushed waste,
• gravity settling of flushed waste solids in an appropriately designed basin, or
• minimi zing feed wastage and spillage .

·· .
.. .
Lagoon sludge that is removed annually rather than stored long term will:
• have more nutrients,
• have more odor, and .. :. • require more land to properly use the nutrients .

• Hire a custom applicator.
• Mix the sludge and lagoon liquid with a chopper -agitator impeller pump through large -
bore sprinkler irrigation system onto nearby cropland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland; mix
remaining sludge; pump into liquid sludge applicator; haul and spread onto cropland or
forageland; and soil incorporate.
• Dewater the upper part of lagoon by irrigation onto nearby cropland or forageland;
dredge sludge from lagoon with dragline or sludge barge; berm an area beside lagoon
to receive the sludge so that liquids can drain back into lagoon; allow sludge to
dewater; haul and spread with manure spreader onto cropland or forageland; and soil
in corporate.
Regardless of the method, you must have the sludge material analyzed for waste
constituents just as you would your lagoon water. The sludge will contain different
nutrient and metal values from the liquid. The application of the sludge to fields will be
limited by these nutrients as well as any previous waste applications to that field and crop
requirement. Waste application rates will be discussed in detail in Chapter 3.
When removing sludge, you must also pay attention to the liner to prevent damage.
Close attention by the pumper or drag-line operator will ensure that the lagoon liner
remains intact. If you see soil material or the synthetic liner material being disturbed, you
should stop the activity immediately and not resume until you are sure that the sludge can
be removed without liner injury. If the liner is damaged it must be repaired as soon as
possible.
Sludge removed from the lagoon has a much higher phosphorus and heavy metal content
than liquid. Because of this it should probably be applied to land with low phosphorus and
metal levels, as indicated by a soil test, and incorporated to reduce the chance of erosion.
Note that if the sludge is applied to fields with very high soil-test phosphors, it should be
applied only at rates equal to the crop removal of phosphorus. As with other wastes,
always have your lagoon sludge analyzed for its nutrient value.
The application of sludge will increase the amount of odor at the waste application site.
Extra precaution should be used to observe the wind direction and other conditions which
could increase the concern of neighbors.

Possible Causes of Lagoon Failure
Lagoon failures result in the unplanned discharge of wastewater from the structure .
Types of failures include leakage through the bottom or sides, overtopping, and breach of
the dam. Assuming pro·per design and construction, the owner has the responsibility for
ensuring structure safety. Items which may lead to lagoon failures include:
~ Modification of the lagoon structure -an example is the placement of a pipe in the dam
without proper design and construction. (Consult an expert in lagoon design before
placing any pipes in dams.}
• Lagoon liquid levels -high levels are a safety risk.
• Failure to inspect and maintain the dam.
• Excess surface water flowing into the lagoon.
• liner integrity -protect from inlet pipe scouring, damage during sludge removal, or
rupture from lowering lagoon liquid level below groundwater table .
NOTE : If lagoon water is allowed to overtop the dam, the moving water will soon cause
gullies to form in the dam. Once this damage starts, it can quickly cause a large
discharge of wastewater and possible dam failure.

This plan will be implemented in the event that wastes from your operation are leaking,
overflowing or running off site. You should not wait until wastes reach surface waters or
leave your property to consider that you have a problem. You should make every effort to
ensure that this does not happen. This plan should be posted in an accessible location
for all employees at the facility. The following are some action items you should take.
1. Stop the release of wastes . Depending on the situation, this may or may not be possible . Suggested
responses to some possible problems are listed below.
A. Lagoon overflow -possible solutions are:
a) Add soil to berm to increase elevation of dam.
b) Pump wastes to fields at an acceptable rate.
c) StOp all flow to the lagoon immediately.
d) Call a pumping contractor.
e) Make sure no surface water is entering lagoon.
B. Runoff from waste application field-actions include:
a) Immediately stop waste application.
b) Create a temporary diversion to contain waste.
c) Incorporate waste to reduce runoff.
d) Evaluate and eliminate the reason(s) that cause the runoff.
e) Evaluate the application rates for the fields where runoff occurred.
C. Leakage from the waste pipes and sprinklers -action include:
a) Stop recycle pump .
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Close valves to eliminate further discharge.
d) Repair all leaks prior to restarting pumps.
D . Leakage from flush systems, houses , solid separators-action include:
a) Stop recycle pump.
b) Stop irrigation pump.
c) Make sure siphon occurs .
d) Stop all flow in the house , flush systems, or solid separators.
E. Leakage from base or sidewall of lagoon. Often this is seepage as opposed to flowing leaks -
possible action:
a) Dig a small sump or ditch from the embankment to catch all seepage, put in a submersible
pump, and pump ba ck to lagoon .
b) If holes are caused by burrowing animals, trap or remove animals and fill holes and
compact with a clay type soil.
c) Have a professional evaluate the condition of the side walls and th e lagoon bottom as soon
as possible.

.. .
2. Assess the extent of the spill and note any obvious damages.
a. Did the waste reach surface waters?
b. Approximately how much was released and for what duration?
c. Any damage notes, such as employee injury, fish kills, or property damage?
d. Did the spill leave the property?
e . Does the spill have the potential to reach surface waters?
f . Could a future rain event cause the spill to reach surface waters?
g. Are potable water wells in danger (either on or off the property)?
h. How much reached surface waters?
3. Contact appropriate agencies.
a. During normal business hours call your OWQ regional office; Phone #, After hours,
emergency number: [phone]. Your phone call should include: your name,
facility number, telephone number, the details of the incident from item 2 above, the
exact location of the facility , the location or direction of movement of the spill , weather
and wind conditions. The corrective measures that have been under taken , and the
seriousness of the situation. .
b . If the spill leaves property or enters surface waters. call local EMS phone number.
c. Instruct EMS to contact local Health Department
d. Contact CE's phone number, local SWCD office phone number and the local NRCS
office for advice./ technical assistance phone number.
4. If none of the above works call 911 or the Sheritrs Department and explain your pr oblem to ·
them and ask the person to contact the proper agencies for you.
5. Contact the contractor of your choice to begin repair or problem to minimize offsite damage.
a. Contractors Name: Murohy Family Farms
b. Contractors Address: P.O. Box 759. Rose Hill. NC 28458

The designed temporary a"t.c)~a-ge -~-~-~-~i.sts of 180 days storage for: :
( 1) waste from animals and (2 ). ··excess rainfall after e·~aporation. ,:· Also
included is storage for th~-2S ~i~~r -24 hour storm for the location.
The volume of waste generated from · a given number _of animals will be
fairly constant throughout ·the yeai ~nd 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 elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipe(s) from
building<s>. If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping. a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon 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 without
runoff or leaching.

Methode of application include eolid eet,
and traveling gun irrigation. Care ehould
waete to pr~vent damage to crape.
The following iteme are to be carried out :
be
1 . It ie strongly r ecommended that the treatment lagoon be pre-
charged to 1/2 ite capacity to prevent exceeeive adore during
etart-up. Pre-charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waete entering· the lagoon thereby reducing adore. ~elide ehould be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging ie complete,
flueh buildinge with recycled lagoon liquid. Freeh water ehould not
be ueed for flushing after initial filling.
2 . Th~ attached waete utili2ation plan shall be fqllowed . Thie
p lan recommends sampling and teeting of waete (eee attachment)
before land. application.
3. Begin tempora r y etorage pump-out of the lagoon when fluid level
r eaches the elevation 100.2 ae marked by permanent marker. Stop pump-
out when the fluid level reachee elevation 98 .3 . Thie temporary
atorage~ lese 25 yr-24 hr storm~ contains 33136 cubic feet or

a. Keep a minimum of 25 feet of grass veg~tated buffer around
waste utili2ation fields adjacent to perennial streams. Waste will
nat be applied in open ditchee. Do not pump within 2~~ feet of a
residence or within 1~0 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
manner not to reach ather property and public right-of-ways.

The £6undation a~~a of the lagoon ·e~bankm~nt and building pad shell be
cleared o£ trees, logs, stumps, :roots, brush, boulders,aod end rubbish.
Satisfactory disposition will b~-~~de of ·all debris. The topsoil from ·
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad areas. After stripping, the foundation area of the
lagoon embankment and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the fi~et lift of fill material to get a good bond.
EXCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
The completed excavation and earthfill shall confo~m to the linea,
grades, and elevations shown on the plane. Earthfill material shall
be free of mate~ial such ae sod, ~oats, f~o2en soil, atones ave~
6 inches in diameter, and othe~ objectionable material. To the extent
they are suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill . The fill
ehall be brought up in approximately hori2ontal layers not to exceed 9
inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer
will be comp acted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
equipment o r standa r d tam~ing roller or othe~ equivalent method.
Compaction will be considered adequate when fill material ie observed
to.consol~date to the point that settlement is not readily detectible .
NOTE ~HE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
SECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankment of the lagoon shall be
installed ·using the more impervious materials from the r~quired
excavations. Construction of f~ll heights ehall i n clude 5 percent for
settleme nt. Dikes over 15 feet in height and with an impoundment
capacity of 10 acre-feet or more fall under the jurisdiction of the NC
Dam Safety Law. The height is defined as the difference in elevation
from the cons t ructed height to the downstream toe of the dike.
Precautions shall be taken during construction to p revent excessi v e
erosion and sedimentation.
LINER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1. 5 ft.
NOTE: LINERS <PARTIAL OR FUL~> ~RE REQUIRED WHEN T~E ATTACHED SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
ENCOUNTERED DURING CONSTRUCTION . A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
I S INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT .
When areas of unsuitable materiel are encountered. they will be over-
excavated below finish grade to the specified depth as measured
p erpendicular to the finish grade. The £oundation shall be backfilled

The single moat important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, ather than the type of clay used for the
linert ie the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
The sequence of equipment use and the routing of equipment in an estab-
lished pattern helps assure uniformity in the whole placement and
compaction proceee. For moat clay soils, a tamping or sheepsfoot
roller is the preferable type of compaction equipment.
The soil liner shall b~ prot~cted from th~ discharge of waet~ outlet
pipes. This can be done by using some type of energy diseipator<rocks>
or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners ere synthetic liners and bentonite sealant .
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
included with this Construction Specification.
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
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
materials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and oth~.r bare constr·ucted ~reas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation ae soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding specifications. Topsoil should he placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temporary seeding or mulch
ehall be used if the recommended permanent vegetation is out of season
dates for seeding. Permanent vegetation should be established as soon
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REHOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
~hen tile drains are encountered. the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the outside toe of slope of the dike. The tile
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC, CL, or CH.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE TREATMENT LAGOONS ----------------------------------------------------------
=OUNDATION PREPARATION:
The foundation area of the lagoon embankment and building pad shall be
c leared of trees, logs, stumps, roots, brush, boulders,sod and rubbish.
3atisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. The topsoil from
the lagoon and pad area should be stripped and stockpiled for use on
the dike and pad ar~eas. Aftet' stt~ipping, the fo1..1ndation at'ea of the
lagoon embankme~t and building pad shall be thoroughly loosened prior
to placing the first lift of fill material to get a good bond.
~XCAVATION AND EARTHFILL PLACEMENT:
The completed excavation and earthfill shall conform to the lines,
~rades, and elevations shown on the plans. Earthfill material shall
~e fr'ee of mater'ial such as sod, roots, ft'ozen soil, stones ovet'
~ inches in diameter, and other objectionable material. To the extent
t hey at'e suitable, excavated materials can be used as fill. The fill
i hall be brought up in approximately horizontal layers not to exceed g
inches in thickness when loose and prior to compaction. Each layer
~ill be co~pacted by complete coverage with the hauling and spreading
?quipment or standard tamping roller or other equivalent method .
:ompactio~ will be considered adequate when fill material is observed
to consolidate to the point that settlement is not readily detectible.
~OTE ~HE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLACEMENT OF LINERS IN THE LINER
3ECTION OF THIS SPECIFICATION. The embankm e nt of the lagoon shall be
i nstalled using the mor e impervious materials from the required
~xcavations. Const ruction of fill heights shall include 5 percent for
:;ettlement. Dikes ovet~ 15 feet ·in· height and with an .impotmdment
=a p ac ity of 10 acre -feet or more fall und er the jur isdiction of the NC
Jam Safety Law. The height is defined as the diffe r ence in elevation
from the con st ructed height to the downstre a m toe of the dike.
~r ecautio ns shall be tak e n duri ng construct io n to p r event excessive
~rosion and sedimentation.
_INER: THE MINIMUM REQUIRED THICKNESS SHALL BE 1. 5 ft.
~OTE: LINERS <PA RT IAL OR FULL> ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE ATTACHED SOILS
INVESTIGATION REPORT SO INDICATES OR WHEN UNSUITABLE MATERIAL IS
~NCOUNTE RED DURING CONSTRUCTION. A TYPICAL CROSS SECTION OF THE LINER
[8 INCLUDED IN TH E DESIGN WHEN LINERS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SOILS REPORT.
~hen areas of un su itable material are enco u ntered, they will be over-
lx cavated below fi nish grade to the specified depth as measured
~erpendicular to the fini s h grade. The foundation shall be backfilled
~s specified to grade with a SCS approved material Cie -CL,SC,CH>.
~EFER TO THE SOILS INVESTIGATION INFORMATION IN THE PLANS FOR SPECIAL
:ONS I OERATIONS.
Soil liner ~a~erial shall come from an approved borrow area. The
minimum water content of the liner material shall be optimum moisture
content which relates to that moisture content when the sail is kneaded
in the hand it will form a ball which does not readily separate. Water
shall be added to borrow as necessary to insure proper moisture content
during placement of the liner. The moisture content of the liner
material shall not be less than optimum water content during placement.
The maximu~ water content relates to the soil material being too wet
for efficient use of hauling 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 0698 Dry Unit
Weight of the liner material. When smooth or hard, the previous lift
shall be scarified and moistened as needed before placement o~ the next
lift.
The single most important factor affecting the overall compacted perme-
ability of a clay liner, other than the type of clay used for the
liner, is the efficient construction processing of the compacted liner.
T~e sequence of equi·pment •..1se and the t'O•.lt ing of equipment in an estab-
lished pattern 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.
The soil liner shall be protected from the discharge of waste outlet
pipes. This can be dane by using some type of energy dissipator(rocks)
or using flexible outlets on waste pipes.
Alternatives to soil liners are synthetic liners and bentonite sealant.
When these are specified, additional construction specifications are
incl~ded with this Const r uction Specification.
CUTOFF TRENCH:
A cutoff t~ench s hall be cons truc ted under the embankment area when
sl1own on c.. typic=.l c ·r·os:; se c tion in the pla.ns. Tr.e fina.l deptr. of tl1e
cutoff trench shall be determined by observation of the foundation
matet·ials.
VEGETATION:
All exposed embankment and other bare constructed areas shall be seeded
to the planned type of vegetation as soon as possible after construc-
tion according to the seeding ~pecifications. Top ~oil should be placed
on areas of the dike and pad to be seeded. Temp orary seeding or mulch
s h a ll be u se d if the recommended permanent vegetat ion is out of s eason
dates for see ding. Permanent vegetation should be established as so on
as possible during the next period of approved seeding dates.
REMOVAL OF EXISTING TILE DRAINS
Wh e n tile drains are encountered, the tile will be removed to a minimum
of 10 feet beyond the out side toe of slope of the dike. The tile
trench shall be backfilled and compacted with good material such as
SC , CL, or CH .

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 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
t'ainfall wi 11 vat'Y ft'om year to year'. The 25 yeat' t'ainfall wi 11 not
be a factor to consider in an annual pumping cycle, but this storage
volume must always be available.
A maximum elevation is determined in each design to begin
pumping and this is usually the outlet invert of pipeCs> from
building(s). If the outlet pipe is not installed at the elevation to
begin pumping, a permanent marker must be installed at this elevation
to indicate when pumping should begin. An elevation must be established
to stop pumping to maintain lagoon treatment depth.
Pumping can be started or stopped at any time between these two
elevations for operating convenience as site conditions pe r mit, such as
weather, soils, crop, and equipment in order to apply waste without
runoff or leaching.

Methods of application include sol id set,
and traveling gun irrigation. Care should
waste to prevent damage to crops.
The following items are to be carried out:
be
1. It is strongly recommended that the treatment lagoon be pre-
charged to 1/2 its capacity to prevent excessive odors during
start-up. Pre-charging reduces the concentration of the initial
waste entering the lagoon thereby reducing odors. Solids sho~ld be
covered with effluent at all times. When precharging is complete,
flu.sh buildings with recycled lagoon liquid. Fresh water should not
be used for flushing after initial filling.
2. The attached wast~ utiliza~ion plan shall be followed. 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 101.7 as marked by permanent marker. Stop pump-
out when the fluid level t'eaches elevation gg.a. This temporat'Y
sto ·,..age, less 25 yt'-24 hr stot'm, contains 33471 cubic feet or
250363 gc..llons.
.. ' ·. . . The recommended maximum amount to apply per irrigation is
ne (1> inch and the t'ecommended maximum application rate is IZI.3
.nch per hour. Refer to the waste utilization plan for further details.
·· Keep vegetation on the embankment and at'eas adjacent to the
.agoon mowed annually. Vegetation should be fertilized as needed
·a maintain a vigorous stand.
• . R e p a i r~ any e t' o d e d a r~ e as o t' at' e as dam a g e d by t' o d en t s and
·stablish in vegetation.
All surface runoff is to be diverted from the lagoon to stable
)Utlets.
:·. Keep a mini mum of 25 feet of gt•ass vegetated buffer ar~ound
•aste utilization fields adjacent to pet~ennial st-r·eams. Waste ~-Jill
at be applied in open ditches. Do not pump within 200 feet of a
·esidence or within 100 feet of a well. Waste shall be applied in a
:anner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways.
The Clean Water Act of 1977 prohibits the discharge of
)Ollutants into water·s of the United States. The Department of
~nvit•onment, Health, and Natur~al Resources, Division of Envir·on-
·ental Management, has the responsibility for enfo r cing this law.
