B. Production Area Conservation Practices and Operation and Maintenance Plans
Farmstead Conservation Practices — Record of Decisions are based on the results of the
Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan evaluations.
Some of the first practices applied to control animal waste and protect water quality were
installed around 1990 to meet NC 0.200 water quality requirements. The last waste storage pond
constructed was completed in October 2018. Waste storage and transfer practices include the
following. 1) Roofs and gutters on freestall barns and buildings, 2) Underground clean water outlets, 3)
Collection alleys, transfer pipe and pump, 4) Five waste storage ponds, 5) Transfer pipe from waste
ponds to application field for drag hose applicator and to waste pond #5, 6) Sand lane and sand storage
for settling sand from freestall barns and storing for reuse and 7) Solid manure storage near sand
storage area.
, The waste storage ponds operate as a single waste source. All waste is pumped from pond #1,
#3 and #5 when applying waste to cropland Computations for storage period and quantity for this
waste source are found attached. Manure solids are collected in ponds #11, #2 and #3 by pumping or
gravity from the end of sand lane. As land application starts, wastewater is pumped from the lower
ponds into the upper ponds via the freestall barn. Waste reports show similar test results from all ponds
likely due to the extreme mixing while removing sand hydraulically from the waste stream.
Waste pond #5 will be filled by truck haul or pipeline. See pipeline design and installation
requirements in Section I below. Planned pipeline is shown as a planned waste transfer item in
conservation practices planned and applied section below..
A storage area for manure solids is located uphill of sand lane. Presently a solid separator for
solids has not been installed. Since nutrient content for manure solids will be about the same as
wastewater, this volume will be included in the single waste source used in the plan. As the dairy cow
capacity increases at dairy, it will become necessary to remove manure solids in order to harvest cleaner
sand from the sand lane_
a, Farmstead Conservation Practices — Record of Decisions
Objective —To manage animal waste to protect water quality on the farm by storing manure,
other wastewater and all polluted runoff and the 25ryear runoff from the unroofed feedlot areas, waste
transfer and storage areas. The 25 year clean rainfall and runoff from roofs at freestall barns and
surrounding areas is diverted around the waste management system. This plan supplements work
completed by NRCS and Randolph County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The Conservation Plan shows conservation practices that :meet the resource concerns at the
farmstead (Dairy Production Area) determined in this Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan. See
Operation and Maintenance Plan for recommendations for maintaining practices. Also, see the Normal
Mortality and Mass Mortality Plan and Chemical Handling, Storage and Disposal Plan in O&M section.
See Waste Management System plans completed on 10/7/2013, 3/10/2016 and 1.0/5/2017 for
other documentation. See Older Waste Management Plans in Randolph County NRCS Office.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
This Animal Waste Management System consists of the following major
components:
1. FIVE WASTE STORAGE PONDS
2. SOLIDS SEPARATION SYSTEM
3. COLLECTION FLUSH DITCH, SAND LANE AND SAND STORAGE
4. WASTE HANDLING EQUIPMENT
5. CLEAN WATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
All waste is scraped or flushed from the freestall barns and stored in the waste
storage ponds and solids separation area. Liquid waste is hauled and hard hose
pull applied from the waste storage ponds and spread at agronomic rates. The
waste storage ponds are designed to provide liquid storage for the wastes
produced by 5,000 milk cows. Solid waste is hauled and spread at agronomic
rates or removed from farm by a Manure Hauler.
Also, all contaminated runoff flows into the waste storage ponds. The waste
storage ponds are designed to provide storage for normal runoff from the
drainage areas and waste water from the milk parlor and provide storage space
for the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-four (24) hour storm runoff from the drainage
areas.
This Animal Waste Management System is designed to prevent discharge of
Animal Waste Contaminates to surface waters from the twenty-five (25) year,
twenty-four (24) hour storm, as required under the Non -discharge regulations.

1. WASTE STORAGE PONDS
OVERVIEW
The waste storage ponds are designed to store manure, runoff and wastewater.
Additional storage space is included to contain the twenty-five (25) year, twenty-
four (24) hour storm runoff from around bams, sand lanes., sand storage and
solid separation storage area. A post will be. installed with the level of the top of
post indicating the level of storage available prior to infringing on the 25 year, 24
hour storm capacity. All the 25 year storm is stored in waste pond #4. The
waste storage ponds consist of earthen dams and concrete chutes or pipes for
discharging contaminated water and manure. into the structures. The maximum
storage level below the emergency spillway elevation is shown below for each
pond. The design storage period is also shown.

OPERATION
The service life of the waste storage ponds will be determined by the level of
management for the entire system. Once the manure and bedding materials
have reached the waste storage pond, how effectively the waste is agitated will
determine the amount of solids which remain in thewaste storage pond.
Over time it is expected that some solids will accumulate in the waste storage
pond. Poor management will result in the rapid accumulation of solids, which will
reduce the usable capacity of the waste storage pond to the point that some
form of dredging will be required. If a large volume of solid waste is allowed to
wash from the lot and/or if inadequate agitation is performed, this dredging
operation could be required in a very short period of time.

MAINTENANCE
The concrete in the waste storage ponds should be inspected periodically for
major cracks. Vegetation on the dams should be inspected periodically and
reseeded as needed to maintain a vigorous stand. The dams should be mowed
at least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing operations must take place
only when the soil of the dam is dry, and vegetation should not be mowed to a
height of less than four (4) inches at any time. See vegetative specification for
further requirements. Any evidence of sloughing or seepage should be reported
to the Randolph Soil & Water Conservation District office.
2. SOLIDS SEPARATION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
Manure solids are removed from all waste at end of sand lane. Slurry is
collected in collection box and pumped into solids separator. Manure solids are
stacked and stored on a concrete area located near manure separator. The
storage period is 2 months for manure solids. All runoff from manure solids
storage area is diverted to waste storage ponds.
MAINTENANCE
The concrete should be inspected periodically for major cracks. All mechanical
equipment should be maintained as recommended by manufacturer of
separator.
3. COLLECTION FLUSH DITCH, SAND LANE AND SAND STORAGE
OVERVIEW
The milking parlor wastewater and manure from freestall barns and parlor will be
transferred to sand settling areas in flush ditch. A concrete channel, sand lane,
is constructed to transfer sand laden manure and milking parlor wash water. The
sand lane will settle sand_ Sand will need to be removed daily from the settling
channel. Sand in the lower leg should be moved to the upper leg to rewash.
The sand storage area will be used to store sand removed from the sand lane.
Sand trap is not 100% effective.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the concrete components for cracks or other damage, and make repairs
or replace as needed. Inspect the structure regularly and remove accumulated
solids.

4. WASTE HANDLING EQUIPMENT
OVERVIEW
The waste handling equipment consists of spreading slurry using slurry manure
tank and hard hose pull. Slurry tanks and hard hose pull. are loaded with an
agitator pump system.
Manure spreading should be initiated prior to the liquid level reaching the full
storage level marker in waste storage ponds #4 and #5. When the liquid level in
the waste. storage pond reaches the marker, Waste must be removed for land
application. Do not spread in such a manner as to cause runoff or erosion.. Do
not spread on frozen or saturated soils.
The initial. step in each spreading operation is to properly agitate the waste in the
waste storage ponds Slurry waste will be hard hose spread to the fullest extent
possible. At waste storage ponds #1 and #2, sand accumulations will be
mechanically removed each year if necessary.
MAINTENANCE
Soil tests the application fields every three years or as required by permit.
Vegetation in the fields should be inspected periodically and reseeded as
needed to insure a vigorous stand. Fields may also need to be limed and
fertilized annually.
5. CLEAN WATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
Clean water collection and piping consists of piping clean water under stock trails
and diverting clean water around lounging and.feedlot areas and waste storage
ponds.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the components of the clean water collection and piping system annually
for cracks or other damage, and make repairs or replace as needed. Inspect
annually and remove accumulated sediment.

6. VEGETATED DIVERSION
OVERVIEW
Vegetated diversions are located above the waste storage ponds and will convey
non -contaminated runoff around the structures. Diversions will also be located
around the feed areas to divert clean water.
MAINTENANCE
The vegetation in the diversion should be inspected periodically and reseeded as
needed to insure a vigorous stand. It is essential that neither vehicles nor
livestock be allowed to create travel lanes within the diversion. The diversion
should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. The diversion may
be control grazed or mowed for hay. Grazing and mowing operations must take
place only when the soils are dry, and vegetation should not be grazed or mowed
to a height of less than four (4) inches. If sedimentation has reduced the
capacity of the channel, contact the Randolph Soil and Water Conservation
District for technical assistance in correcting this problem. See vegetative
specification for further requirements.
7. LIVESTOCK EXCLUSION
OVERVIEW
Livestock exclusion is installed at locations as indicated on plan maps.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the Livestock exclusion periodically for mechanical damage or rot. If
fencing wire becomes loose, re -tighten. If fence posts are rotted or damaged in
any way, replace damaged posts.
8. FILTER AREA PLANTING
OVERVIEW
Filter area planting applies to seeding 100' of grass below the lounging areas
and seeding diversions.

MAINTENANCE
Fertilizer and lime should be applied either during September -October or
February -March. Vegetation should be inspected periodically and reseeded as
needed to insure a vigorous stand.
The filter area may be control grazed or mowed for hay. Grazing and mowing
operations must take place only when the soils are dry, and vegetation should
not be grazed or mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches. All filter area
planting should be mowed at least annually to prevent woody growth. Mowing
operations must take place only when the soil is dry and vegetation should not
be mowed to a height of less than four (4) inches at any time. Do not mow cool
season grasses during periods when plants are showing signs of drought stress.
The number of cattle allowed on lounging area/pastures is critical to success of
the filter areas. Cattle housed exclusively an pasture should be limited to a lower
stocking rate during wet winter months. A stocking rate of 4 cows per acre
during the winter is suggested as an acceptable rate. Actual stocking rate
should be based on how well vegetation is maintained in pasture especially near
drainage ways.
9. STOCK TRAILS
OVERVIEW
Stock trails are located as indicated on plan maps in Randolph Field Office..
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the stock trails periodically for damage and wear. If gravel layer
becomes thin, gravel shall be replaced to maintain a minimum of 4" of cover over
the filter cloth. Manure accumulations in broad -based dips on stock trail shall be
removed at regular intervals to prevent overtopping.
GENERAL COMMENTS
PESTICIDE USE
Extreme care should be exercised with the use of all herbicides so that desirable
vegetation, especially that of the filter area, diversion and dam, is not adversely
affected. It is a violation of law to use any pesticide in a manner not permitted by
its labeling. To protect yourself, never apply any pesticide in a manner or for a
purpose other than as instructed on the label or in labeling accompanying the
pesticide product that you purchase. Do not ignore the instructions for use of
8

protective clothing and devices and for storage and disposal of pesticide wastes,
including containers.
Notify the Randolph Soil and Water Conservation District if repairs or major
modifications are required for any of the components of this Waste Management
System.
Additional Considerations and Requirements
The collection, treatment and storage facilities shall be properly
maintained and operated at all times; this also includes the land
application equipment and sites.
2. A suitable vegetative cover shall be maintained on all land application
sites and buffers in accordance with the Waste Utilization Plan. No waste
may be applied on fields not approved by or prepared in accordance with
the Waste Utilization Plan.
3. An acceptable pH of the soil shall be maintained on all land application
sites to insure an optimum yield for the crop(s) being grown.
4. The plant available nitrogen (PAN) application rates and hydraulic loading
rates identified in the Waste Utilization Plan shall not be exceeded.
5. Application of animal waste on land which is used to grow crops for direct
human consumption (e.g., strawberries, melons, lettuce, cabbage., etc.)
shall not occur within 30 days prior to or during the planting of the crop or
at any time during the growing season, or in the case of fruit bearing
trees, 30 days prior to breaking dormancy. For fiber and food crops,
which undergo further processing, application of animal waste shall not
occur within 30 days of harvesting. If waste is to be applied to bare soil,
the waste shall be incorporated into the soil within 24 hours after the
application on land.
6. Domestic wastewater from showers, toilets, etc. shall not be discharged
into the animal waste management system. Wash vats required to be
connected to the animal waste management system by the Grade A
Pasteurized Milk Ordinance Fart 11, Section 7, Item 5r are exempt from
this requirement. Wash -down of stock trailers owned by and used on the
dairy only will be permissible as long as the design accommodates the
9

.additional wastewater and as long as detergents and disinfectants are
used which have been labeled as readily biodegradable by the
manufacturer.
7. Disposal of dead animals shall be done in accordance with the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) regulations and the Waste
Utilization Plan,
8. Grazing of animals on application sites shall be controlled in accordance
with USDA -Natural Resources Conservation Service Standards.
9. Solid materials such as, but not limited to, bottles, gloves, syringes, silo
covers or any other solid waste from the dairy operation shall be
prevented from entering the waste management system and shall be
disposed of properly.
10. The facility must have either adequate animal waste application and
handling equipment on site, a lease for the use of necessary equipment, a
contract with a third party applicator or a contract for the purchase of the
equipment. In all cases, the equipment must be capable of applying the
waste on sites specified in the Waste Utilization Plan and at rates not to
exceed agronomic and hydraulic loading for the sites.
11. Animal waste shall not be applied to wetlands_ or surface water or shall not
reach wetlands or surface waters of the state. by runoff, drift, manmade
conveyances (pipes or ditches), 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 the
assessment of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day per violation by the
Division of Water Quality for every day the discharge .continues.
12. Animal waste shall be applied on land eroding at less than -5 tons per
acres per year. Waste may be applied to lard 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.
13. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events,
or when the soil surface is frozen. When animal waste is to be applied on
acres subject 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.
14. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water.
This distance may be reduced for waters that are not perennial provided
adequate vegetative filter strips are present.
10

15. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells.
16. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet to dwellings other

and in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site.
19. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested
at least every three years at crop sites where waste products are applied.
Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining element. Zinc and copper levels in
the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when
these metals approach excess levels. Soil test and waste analysis
records shall be kept for 5 years or as required by permit.
20. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration
rate. No ponding shall occur.
21. Records of waste application shall be maintained to establish actual
application rates. The records will include date of application, amount of
waste applied per acre by tract number and field number, most recent
waste analysis and soil test report, and the realistic yield expectation
(RYE) nitrogen rate. Waste application records shall be maintained for 5
years.
22. Proper calibration of application equipment should be done to ensure
uniformity and accuracy of spreading rates.
23. Animal waste should 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 be
considered also.
24. It is the responsibility of the owner of the dairy to secure an update of the
waste utilization plan when there is a change in the operation, number of
animals (increase), method of utilization or available land.

Operation and Maintenance
Pipeline & Hose -Drag
See Emergency Response Plan in case of an emergency leak or failure of hose drag system.
Field Calibration
See "Field Calibration Procedures for Animal Wastewater Application Equipment" for Hose -
Drag Wastewater Equipment for step by step procedure for calibration. Also, see application
guide for recommended tractor speeds for applying varying amounts of slurry waste.
Safety Precautions
See safety precautions provided in operators manual or available from manufacture of the
Cadman manure boom applicator. This system requires a large tractor to pull hose and system
operates under high pressure. An experienced operator is required to operate system.
Working or standing near hose drag system and pumps could be life threating. Shut down
system when near supply lines, hoses and applicator.
Monitoring during Pumping Activities
Slurry waste is pumped through pipeline to waste pond #5 or to the manure boom applicator
mounted to a tractor. Pumping activities shall be monitored closely especially during the start-
up phase to insure no spills or discharges occur. Each time pipeline is used or hose -drag system
is started, a four wheeler or vehicle will be used to check all hydrants and the pipeline to insure
that everything is working properly.
Agitation
Agitation is the most critical operation in maintaining available storage capacity in waste
storage ponds. Agitation of manure solids re -suspends settled solids and ensures that most or
all of the manure will flow to the pump inlet. Additionally, the agitation homogenizes the
manure mixture and provides a more consistent nutrient content. Samples shall be obtained
for nutrient analysis after waste pond is well mixed. Prior analysis will be used to estimate the
present analysis.
Agitation of manure storage facilities releases gases that may increase odor levels and present a
health hazard. Consideration shall be given to weather and wind conditions, time of day, and
day of week to minimize the possibility of odor conflicts while agitating.
Svstem Start Up for Hose Drag
Hook-up hose to applicator on tractor and pull to end of field. Crack valve at pump and slowly
remove air from supply lines. Once air is removed, bring system up to operating pressure and

flowrate. See monitoring during pumping activities above and manufacture operator manual
recommendations of hose -drag applicator for safety precautions.
Svstem Shut Down for Hose Draa
Tractor operator will let pump operator know to close off system. Approximately 5 minutes
before field is completely covered with waste, the pump operator shall be shut-off pump. Flow
from applicator should stop within 5 minutes.
Start up and Shut Down Procedure for Pipeline to Waste Pond #5
Start up and Shut Down procedures for pipeline will be provided by designer of pipeline.
Before pump is started, sludge hose is laid from waste pond to underground pipeline. Sludge
pipe will be securely connected at all joints and at hydrant at end of pipeline. The valve at
hydrant will be opened fully. To start waste transfer, crack valve at pump and slowly remove
air from supply lines_ Once air is removed, bring system up to operating pressure and flowrate.
Once pumping is complete, stop pump and close valve at the underground pipeline hydrant.
Disconnect sludge hose from from underground pipeline. Use clean -out ball or bullet to force
remaining waste in sludge hose into the waste pond. Use hose caddy to collect and store
sludge hose.

Field Calibration Procedures for Animal
Wastewater Application Equipment
HOSE -DRAG Hose -drag -type equipment has gained popularity in recent years for land
Wastewater application of wastewater' in North Carolina. It offers several advantages
Equipment over traditional irrigation systems including odor reduction, nitrogen
conservation, and a relatively high flow rate that cuts the application time.
Hose -drag systems may also be used to apply wastewater to areas not ac-
cessible by traditional irrigation equipment. For more details on hose drag
systems including tables of application depths for various tractor speeds and
equipment widths refer to Extension publication AG-634, Hose Drag Systems
for Land Application of Liquid Manure and Wastewater.
State law requires field calibration of all land application equipment used
on animal production farms. Specialists certifying animal waste manage-
ment plans must also certify that operators have been provided calibration
and adjustment guidance for all land application equipment.
1 Wastewater in this publication refers to both liquid manure and municipal and industrial wastewater.
General Guidelines their discharge points. Since these two basic types
Several factors determine the distribution of liquid of hose -drag units should be operated with different
wastewater from hose -drag land application equip- overlap, application rates will differ depending upon
ment:
the overlap or "effective application width" chosen
by the operator.
• flow rate
• operating pressure
• the speed of the tractor pulling the unit
• overlap of adjacent passes made by the equip-
ment
This publication explains calibration procedures
for the "low -profile -type" discharge system (Figure
1) and a "boom -type" system. (Figure 2). The two
systems have different spread patterns. The low -
profile -type units discharge close to the ground
either through hooded shrouds or splash plates
and do not spread much beyond their physical
width. They are normally run "edge to edge" in
adjacent passes. Boom -type units discharge from
a slightly higher elevation under slightly more
pressure. Wastewater goes substantially beyond

Figure 1. Hose drag application unit (low -profile -
type).

Figure 2. Hose drag (boom -type) unit is shown in
these two photos.
The calibration of hose -drag -type equipment
involves:
1. Verifying tractor speed.
2. Measuring flow rate to the equipment.
3. Establishing the effective application width.
4. Measuring the wetted width of a single pass, and
of two adjacent passes for boom -type units in
order to establish an effective width. The wetted
width of boom -type units can vary with boom
height, nozzle pressure, and with adjustment of
splash -plate angle if so equipped.
5. Figuring the average application depth.
6. Comparing the average application depth to the
depth allowed in the waste utilization plan. Vari-
ables (usually tractor speed) are adjusted as needed
so that actual application depth does not exceed
the allowed depth in the approved plan.
HOSE -DRAG
WASTEVVATER EQUIPMENT
Average application depth in inches can be ob-
tained using:
Equation 1:
Depth =
Flow rate in gallons per minute
54.9 x Effective width in feet x Tractor speed in miles per hour
The effective width is the distance between the
centerlines of adjacent passes of the unit. For "low -
profile -type" units, the effective width is essentially the
advertised size of the hose drag systems. Typical widths
for these systems are 8, 10, 12, 15, and 20 feet. Tables
showing applied depth for low -profile -type units of the
above listed widths can be found in Table 1.
For boom -type units, the effective width is deter-
mined in the field by measuring the distance between
centerlines of adjacent passes of the unit. Convert
depths obtained from the equation above or to gal-
lons per acre by multiplying by 27,154.
Once the application depth has been determined,
the tractor speed may need to be adjusted to meet
requirements in the waste utilization plan. To find
the tractor speed in miles per hour required to apply a
desired application depth, use:
Equation 2:
Speed =
Flow rate in gallons per minute
54.9 x Application depth in inches x Effective width in feet
While application depths up to 1 inch are allowed
in some waste utilization plans, do not apply more
than 0.75 inch during any given application. Limits
set by the waste utilization plan and existing soil
moisture conditions will determine maximum ap-
plication depths.
Flow rates are determined from a flow meter that
may be permanently mounted on the hose -drag unit
upstream of the distribution box or manifold, or
temporarily placed inline with the hose supplying the
hose -drag unit. If using a hose reel with a temporar-
ily placed meter, position the flow meter between the
hydrant and the reel.

Field Procedure
The field procedure consists of 1) measuring tractor
speed, 2) measuring flow rate, and 3) for boom -type
systems, measuring effective width. Enter collected in-
formation into the appropriate field data sheet (Figure
5 for low -profile type units and Figure 6 for boom -type
units).
Determining Tractor Speed, S
(See Figure 3)
(You will need flags, a stop watch or watch with sec-
ond hand, and a tape measure or measuring wheel).
Repeat steps 2 through 4 below and average the two
measured speeds.
1. Measure a distance over a relatively flat area where
application will occur. A minimum distance of 100
feet is recommended. Set flags at each end.
2. Operate tractor with unit and hose attached, but
no wastewater being discharged, to establish a
targeted speed. Record gear range and gear, throttle
setting (rpm), and speedometer reading (if tractor
has a speedometer).
3. Record the time is takes for the unit to cover the
distance established in step 1. Make sure to start
and stop your watch at either end of the run at a
common point of reference on the unit, such as
when the front axle of the tractor passes the flag.
4. Calculate tractor speed. Tractor speed in miles per
hour can be calculated by using:
I
TT
l:J
Equation 3:
Distance in feet
Seconds it takes to cover distance x 1.47
If you use a distance of 100 feet, get tractor speed
by dividing 68.18 by the seconds it takes to cover 100
feet.
Determining Flow Rate, Q:
(You will need a flow meter and a stop watch or
watch with a second hand.)
Determine flow rate by either 1) recording the in-
stantaneous flow rate or 2) by using the flow totalizer
and elapsed time. Measure flow rate with the unit in
motion to avoid over -application and after determin-
ing tractor speed as outlined in the previous section.
1. Run the system in motion until all air is out of
the mainline and hose, and the flow rate has been
stabilized as shown by the flow rate needle or the
digital readout on flowmeter. If a hose reel is used
to supply wastewater, record the pressure at the
reel. If a reel is not used, record the pressure at the
PUMP.
2a. Record instantaneous flow rate in gallons per min-
ute (gpm).
OR
2b. Subtract beginning flow totalizer reading from
ending flow totalizer reading for a time period not
less than 15 minutes. Convert to gpm by dividing
gallons by elapsed time in minutes. When reading

the totalizer, make sure to note the value of the
last (farthest right) digit. Often this digit indicates
hundreds of gallons, in which case the totalizer
number needs to be multiplied by 100.
Note: Step 2b should be used rather than 2a if
the instantaneous flow rate varies by more than 10
percent after all the air has been purged from the sys-
tem and the flow has stabilized. For flow meters with
needles (normally propeller -type), this is indicated by
a "bouncing" needle.
Determining Effective Width, We (See
Figures 4a, 4b, and 4c):
(You will need flags and a tape measure or measur-
ing wheel.)
Low -profile -type units
For "low -profile" -type units (Figure 1 and Figure
4a) operated with little to no overlap (edge -to -edge),
simply record the advertised width. This width is
roughly the width of the unit.
Boom -type units
It is not as easy to determine the effective width
for boom -type units (Figures 2, 4b, and 4c). To
achieve consistent application uniformity between
adjacent passes, the distance between the nozzles in
adjacent passes should be the same as the fixed dis-
tance between the nozzles on the boom. This requires
a tractor pass spacing equal to the number of nozzles
on the boom times the distance between the nozzles
("N" in Figure 4b) . For the case with two nozzles the
effective width should be 2 x N . If the field mea-
sured effective width calculated in the following steps
differs by more than 15 percent of this target value,
adjust the pass distance.
For boom -type units, the wetted widths measured
in step 2 will depend upon nozzle pressure, boom
height, and angle of the splash plates. If boom height
and splash plate angle are adjustable, make note of
these settings as an adjustment will alter the wet-
ted width and, therefore, the calibration. Boom -type
units may also be subject to drift, so calibration of
these units should be done in wind speeds of 5 mph
or less.
HOSE -DRAG
WASTEWATER EQUIPMENT
1. Measure the distance between the fixed nozzles.
Multiply this distance by the number of nozzles
on the boom to obtain the target effective width.
2. For boom -type units (see Figure 2 and Figure 4b)
that spread wastewater an appreciable distance
from the nozzle:
a. Measure the wetted width of a single pass (Wm )
b. (M��//��eJJasure the wetted width of two adjacent passes
(W1. )
Repeat steps 2a. and 2b. twice for a total of three
measurements each. Take these measurements at least
25 feet from each other, and average both wetted
width measurements.
The effective width (We) is:
Equation 4:
We = W2m - Wm
The tractor speed, flow rate, and effective width
measurements are used to calculate application depth
in the field data sheet or with Equation 1. Data from
the field data sheet may be used with Equation 2 to
determine the target tractor speed to achieve a desired
application depth.
Interpretation and Adjustments
Compare the calculated application depth against
the depth allowed in the animal waste utilization
plan, and against any problems observed in the field.
If either the application depth measured in the field
is greater than the limit in the waste utilization plan,
or runoff occurs on the field, the application rate is
too high. To reduce the application rate, increase the
tractor speed. The target tractor speed may be calcu-
lated from Equation 2 using the system flow rate and
effective width determined in the field procedure.
If the application rate is less than desired (and
under the permitted limit), reduce tractor speed to
increase the application rate. After adjusting the trac-
tor speed, verify the new speed using the procedure
previously described. In no case should the applica-
tion rate allow ponding or runoff, regardless of the
permitted limit.

width for a 2 nozzle boom example, and c.) field -determined effective width for boom -type hose drag units.
To achieve consistent application uniformity,
boom -type units should be driven such that the dis-
tance between nozzles in adjacent passes is about the
same as the distance between the fixed nozzles on the
boom (see Figure 4). In this case the target effective
width (target W), the distance between the centerline
of the tractor in two adjacent passes, is equal to the
number of nozzles on the boom times the distance
between the fixed nozzles (N). If the field -measured
effective width (W) calculated in Equation 4 differs
by more than 15 percent from the target value, adjust
the pass width.

Field Calibration Procedures for Semi -Solid
Animal Waste Application Equipment
LOAD -AREA Information presented in manufacturer's charts are based on average operat-
METHOD ing conditions for relatively new equipment. Discharge rates and application
SPREADER SYSTEM rates change over time as equipment gets older and components wear. For
pump and haul application equipment, application rates and patterns may
vary depending on forward travel and/or PTO speed, gear box settings, gate
openings, operating pressures, spread widths, and overlaps.
Equipment should be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure proper appli-
cation rates and uniformity. Calibration is a simple procedure involving col-
lecting and measuring the material being applied at several locations in the
application area. Calibration helps ensure that nutrients from animal waste
are applied efficiently and at proper rates.
Pump and Haul Application Systems
Liquid applicators and tank spreaders are an alterna-
tive to irrigation systems for transporting and apply-
ing liquid lagoon effluent, liquid manure slurries, and
lagoon sludges. Proper location and design of pump-
ing and loading pads are necessary to protect equip-
ment and operators and avoid damaging the lagoon
dike or embankment. Care should be taken to mini-
mize spills during loading and transport.
Semi -solid (slurry) applicators can be calibrated by
one of two methods: load -area method, and weight -
area method (see AG-553-4). Liquid applicators are
best calibrated by the load -area method.
Load -Area Method
To use the load -area method, you must know the
spreader capacity. Spreader capacity is normally rated
by the manufacturer and often is indicated on the
application equipment. Liquid spreaders are normally
rated in gallons while semi -solid spreaders are rated in
either bushels or cubic feet.
As the name implies, the load -area method
involves applying a full load to a measured area. For
ease of measurement, it is best to use a rectangular
field pattern. For PTO -driven spreaders, application
rate is dependent on ground speed so a uniform
speed must be maintained throughout the swath
length. Ground -driven applicators apply reasonably
uniform rates independent of ground speed.
Load -Area Method Calibration
Procedure
Spread at least one full load of manure in a
rectangular field pattern.
2. Measure the length and width of coverage. Do
not include the outer fringe areas of the coverage
which receive much lighter applications than the
overlapped areas.
3. Multiply the length (feet) by the width (feet) and
divide by 43,560 to determine the coverage area in
acres.
4. Divide the weight or volume of load of manure in
the spreader by the acres covered to determine the
application rate in tons or gallons per acre.
5. If the application rate (Item 4) is not acceptable,
repeat the procedure at different spreader settings,
speeds, or both until the desired application rate
(tons or gallons per acre) is achieved.

Animal Mortality Management Plan for Normal and Mass Mortality
Koopman's Liberty Dairy
Randolph County, NC
November 2018
The dairy is responsible for disposal of normal mortality and mass/catastrophic mortality. The
difference in normal and catastrophic mortality plan is the farmer can choose to go ahead and dispose
of normal mortality by the methods shown below. Catastrophic loss mortality must be reported to the
State Veterinarian and the proposed method of disposal must be approved prior to disposal. The State
Veterinarian considers catastrophic mortality to be greater than ten (10) head of cattle.
Disposal management options for normal and mass/catastrophic mortality shown below are all
acceptable. Koopman Diary prefers to use the rendering option when available. The second option is
burial and the third option is landfills.
Method Description
Rendering. Rendering is a preferred off -site option. Mortality is picked
up during the weekday at a designated area at the dairy
out of pubic view. Rendering is completed at a rendering
plant licensed under G.S.106-168.7.
Leeway Farm Rendering @ 704-873-2072 is current farm
Burial It is the duty of the owner to bury dead animals at least 3
feet below the surface of the ground within 24 hours.
Considerations:
Locate burial pit over 300 feet from surface water and
wells.
Locate burial pit at least 2' above seasonal high water table
or bedrock.
Locate away from neighboring residencies, public areas
and property lines
Landfills The Great Oak Landfill at 3597;O1d Cedar Falls Road,
Randleman, NC 27317 (336-628-6026) will accept normal
mortality. The landfill indicates that one or two at a time is
all they will accept.
Resources needed and
contacts
The rendering company
provides transport of
mortality.
Burial site for catastrophic.
mortality is evaluated on a
.site by site basis.
Heavy equipment needed
for carcass movement and
burial.
Leak -proof transport for
carcasses (liner could be
used if truck is not leak
proof).
Equipment to load
carcasses into transport
vehicle and tipping fees at
landfill.

Chemical Handling, Storage and Disposal Plan
Koopman liberty Dairy
November 2018
THIS OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN IS FOR CHEMICALS PRIMARILY USED AROUND THE DAIRY
MILK CENTER.
NOTE: CHEMICALS USED FOR CROP PRODUCTION ARE NOT STORED ON THE FARM. THE DAIRY
CONTRACTS WITH OTHER FARMERS TO MANAGE PEST IN CROP FIELDS.
A. RESPONSIBILITY
While it is the intent of this plan to provide for a convenient means of meeting the requirements of the
1992 EPA Worker Protection Standard and other Federal, State and local laws and regulations regarding
storage, handling and application of chemicals, it is the operator's responsibility to manage his/her
operations in,accordance with these regulations and all applicable chemical labels. The operator shall
take the necessary measures to stay alert to changes in laws and regulations and to make the changes in
the operation and maintenance of this facility so that it continues to function as an effective means of
handling chemicals safely and legally.
It is the responsibility of the operator to insure that all persons who are involved in the handling of
chemicals at this facility are adequately trained in the normal operating procedures of the facility and all
emergency procedures.
B. GENERAL PROCEDURES
1. The storage facility shall be kept clean at all times, and shall be kept free of items not necessary for
storing, loading and clean-up operations. The facility shall not be used for purposes other than storing,
mixing, cleaning and maintenance of materials and equipment used for chemical application.
2. Thoroughly inspect the storage facility on a regular basis. The inspection should include, but is not
limited to the roofs, doors, access roads, tanks, related plumbing material, backflow prevention devices
and safety equipment. Complete any needed repairs and replacements prior to using the storage
facility.
3. Check to be sure all chemical containers are correctly labeled.
C. STORAGE ROOM OPERATION
1. Store dry chemicals above liquid chemicals to prevent liquid spills from soaking into dry chemical
bags. Where bulky bagged products are to be stored at floor level they shall be stored off the floor on
suitable pallets.
2. When working with chemicals, personnel should take time to protect themselves with proper attire.
Chemical use is dangerous at any time but particular hazardous when chemical is in a concentrated
form. All employees should wear protective attire (e.g., eyewear, coveralls, rubber gloves, respirators,
footwear, etc.). Chemicals and personnel protective equipment are stored in separate areas.

3. Remove all unwanted and Put -of -date chemicals from the dairy and dispose of them according to
federal regulations. Farmers and commercial pesticide users generally cannot dispose of chemicals in
household hazardous waste programs. North Carolina run a pesticide disposal program specifically for
farmers. Occasionally, once a year or so, farmers are given a chance to dispose of chemicals no longer
needed on the farm.
4. All empty chemical containers will be shall be placed into the storage receptacle for disposal by
recycling or otherwise in accordance with applicable regulations. Always follow the manufacturers'
instructions for proper storage and disposal of chemicals and containers.
5. Cross mixing of various chemicals must be avoided except where allowed by the chemical label.
Acids and alkalis should be clearly labeled and distinguished from each other. They should never be
mixed together because mixing risks a violent reaction.
6. To reduce the potential for exposure to chemicals and damage to the facility, access is restricted by
children, pets, livestock, inexperienced personnel and unauthorized people.
7. Any spills, leaks, accidents, or normal operational procedures which result in chemical or chemical
contaminated water coming in contact with the floor shall receive immediate attention. Mop -up
materials such as sand, soil and Drysorb are available at dairy.
8. Pouring chemicals from a drum or tank risks. spills and splashing. Pumps, siphons or gravity taps shall
be used when possible.
9. Water is provided near where detergents are decanted and can be used for removing chemicals from
the eyes.
D. INVENTORY OF CHEMICALS
The dairy only stores and utilizes chemicals related to dairy barn milk production. A typical list of
chemicals found at dairy is shown below. Most of the chemicals are produced by Thatcher Company of
New York..
1. Excel Final Oxy 275g—One step acid cleaner
2. TProx 260 g — Pre teat dip
3. SL110 260 g — Post teat dip
4. Liquid laundry 55g — Laundry detergent
5. TChlor 1g—sanitizer
Occasionally a restricted use chemical or chemical in concentrated form is particularly hazardous is used
on the dairy. This chemical is stored in a locked storage area.
Veterinary chemicals that require.refrigeration are kept in a separate refrigerator that in not used for
drinks or food.
E. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
The emergency response plan developed by the landowner contains information about the local
fire department and the local emergency preparedness authorities. The plan shall be maintained
up-to-date and shall be in accordance with all federal, state and` local laws and regulations relating
to the storage and handling of chemicals.
2

The emergency response plan is shown below. A copy of the plan shall be maintained at an off -
site location where it can be obtained readily in the event of an emergency such as a fire.

C. Waste Production
A maximum of 5,000 milk cows will be located in freestall barns on the Liberty dairy farm at full
capacity. All cows will be milked. Cows are confined to freestall barns. Freestalls are bedded with sand.
Manure, runoff and milking parlor wash water are stored in five (5) waste storage ponds. Manure is
tank hauled, hard hose spread or irrigated.
Manure and sand are scraped to flush collection ditches from all freestall barns. Wastewater
from waste storage ponds is used to flush collection ditch located at lower end of each freestall barn.
Maximum Number Cattle in Waste Management System
Milk Cows - 5,000
D. Waste Management Overview
The waste management system will economically as possible handle all the waste production
described above in a manner that does not degrade air, soil or water resources. The system will prevent
discharge of pollutants to surface and ground water by recycling waste through soil and plants.
The waste management system includes the following components:
a. Five Waste Storage Ponds
Waste ponds #1, #2, #3, #4 and #s will be used for liquid storage and 25 year-24 hour rainfall
storage.
The liquid waste storage ponds will store the following volumes:
1) Runoff from unroofed concrete areas at freestall barns
2) Runoff from separated manure solids storage area
3) Runoff @ sand lanes and sand storage areas
4) Runoff from all vegetated areas that could not be diverted
5) Rainfall minus evaporation on all waste ponds
6) 25 year— 24 hour runoff from all drainage areas and 25 year — 24 hour rainfall on waste
ponds
NOTE: The waste pond storage period is computed on the winter storage period. Another waste
source considered is cooling sprinklers in freestall barns and cow holding areas. It is anticipated that
evaporation from concrete slabs in barns and from waste pond surfaces during the summer will
offset cooling sprinkler additions.
b. Collection Ditch Flushing
At the freestall barns, manure and sand is scraped to a flush collection ditch. Manure and sand
are hydraulically flushed at approximately 2,000 gallons per minute to transfer manure and sand to sand
lane.
c. Sand Settling Lanes & Storage
Sand lanes are designed to settle sand by reducing flow to low enough velocity to settle sand.
Dropping velocity of waste stream to approximately 1 fps will settle sand.

d. Manure Transfer @ Waste Storage Ponds @ Freestall barns
Transfer pipes are used to transfer liquid waste from waste pond to waste pond. The pipe inlet
at each pond is designed with the intake 2' to 4' below surface. Typically, a water zone is located above
settled solids and below the floating solids in the waste pond. The exception is pond #2 in which liquid
waste and the 25 year storm are pumped to waste pond #3: The 25 year storage for ponds #1, #2, #3
and #4 is located in waste pond #4.
e. Manure Solids
Manure solids will be removed from waste stream near the sand lane and sand storage area.
Manure solids will be removed using mechanical methods. It is estimated that 3090 of the collected
manure and urine volume will be removed from the waste stream by solids separation. The solids will
be stored uphill of waste storage pond #1 in an existing structure and areas adjacent to the structure.
Solids will be spread on farm or removed from farm by a Manure Hauler.
f. Other Cattle groups on farm
No other cattle groups are planned on the. farm. Dry cows and heifer groups maybe located on farm
prior to reaching full milk cow capacity. Cattle numbers will not exceed number of milk cows planned in
the system. This plan only addresses the confined cattle groups.
g. Control of Silo Leachate and Runoff
Runoff from trench silos next to commodity sheds flows into a vegetated filter.
Silo runoff is recognized as a serious, pollutant and seepage and:runoff is best handled in waste
storage ponds, however, present guidance allows this pollutant to be filtered.
h. Clean Water Exclusion
Clean water from 25 year storm will be excluded from. all waste storage ponds to the fullest extent
possible. Grass waterways, diversions, culverts and guttering are used.
Plant Available Nutrients for Waste Utilization Plan
Estimate of Plant Available Nitrogen to collect and spread each year will be determined.
j. Operation and Maintenance Plan
The owner shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the system. See plan attached.
k. Emergency Action Plan
The emergency action plan describes emergency conditions and immediate steps to take to gain
control.

8. Sand Accumulation
Sand is settled in sand lanes. If any sand escapes, waste pond ##1 will be cleaned out as needed.
No sand storage is needed in waste storage ponds.
9. Manure
Liquid waste and water from sand separation and manure separation systems will be diverted
into waste storage pond #1 by pipe. Once pond #1 is full of waste, the liquid waste will be transferred to
the ponds #3 and #4 by gravity. Wastewater will be pumped from. waste ponds to freestall barns for
flushing barns.
All waste in waste storage ponds will be applied to cropland.
Transfer pipes move liquid waste to storage ponds #2,.#3 and. #4.
The 'Dairy Manure Characteristics table in NRCS AgricuFtural Waste -Management Field Handbook
indicate that a milk cow producing 75 lb per day of milk will produce 18:ga1/day/cow of manure and
urine. The collected manure will contain approximately 20% TS (wet weight). The wet moisture wet of
manure collected is approximately 87%. Total solids contain dissolved solids and suspended solids. The
suspended solids portion will be removed from waste stream with solids separation. The volume of
dissolved solids removed will depend on. moisture retained in separated solids. The CRC Livestock

Waste Management Handbook indicate a removal rate of between 30 and 60% of Total Solids for
various types of screen separators.
It is estimate that 30% of the manure and urine volume will be removed from the waste stream
and handled as separated manure solids. The moisture content should be low enough that the
separated solids will stack.
The intent of above discussion is to show variables that will affect the actual volume of solids
separated. Variables that will affect actual quantity of manure solids separated are volume of waste
collected, amount of dissolved solids, amount of suspended solids, moisture content of collected
manure and urine, moisture content of separated solids and the percent of suspended solids removed
by the separator. A 30% volume reduction for the manure and urine collected appears to be a
reasonable assumption for solids removal.
Manure and urine volume in waste ponds
Volume =5,000 cows x 18 gal/day/7.48 gal/cu ft x 70%
= 8,422 cu ft/day
Volume for 4 months = 8,422 cu ft/day x 120 days
= 1,010,640 cu ft/120 days
See section 12 for Separated manure solids detail

Waste Pond #2 — 572,000 gallons
Waste Pond #3 — 3,715,000 gallons
Waste Pond #4 — 4,897,000 gallons

=1,911,898 cu ft
Estimated Storage for flush water to leave in system at total cleanout
1,911,898 cu ft —1,687,926 cu ft or 223,972 cu ft or 1,675,000 gallons.

11. Waste Storage Period
The storage period will increase or decrease depending on stocking rate of milk caws and how
effective solid separator removes manure solids.
At full capacity, the storage period for waste storage ponds #1, #2, #3, #4 and #5 is
approximately 4.0 months.
F: Manure Solids Separation and Storage
Solids will be stored between road and sand separation. area. It is estimated that 30% of
collected manure and urine volume from cows will be separated solids. Runoff from the manure solids
storage area will be stored in waste storage ponds.
Manure and urine volume in solids separated
Volume = 5,000 cows x 18 gal/day/7.48 gal/cu ft x 30%
= 3,610 cu .ft/day
The storage period for manure solids is-2 months.
Volume for 2 months = 3,610 cu ft/day x 60 days
= 216,600 cu ft/60 days
= 140' x 140' x 11'
Capacity = 216,600 cu ft @ 62.4 lb/cu ft x 1 ton/2000 lb
= 6,758 ton/60 days
Capacity per Yr 6,758 ton/60 days x 365 days = 41,111 ton
Koopman Dairies are planning on selling manure solids. The storage period needed will be
relatively short if these plans are successful. The area shown for separated manure solids on plan view
drawing is approximately 150'x150', Currently a 120'x75'roofed structure is located in the area. Mr.
Koopman understands that as the dairy increases cow numbers, the storage area will need to be
modified to handle the separated solids without increasing the size of drainage area. into waste storage
ponds. Since the sand storage area shown is likelylarger than needed, part of this area could be
converted to separated solids storage area.
Since a contract has not been signed with a Manure Hauler to remove solids from the farm, this
source of manure will also be included in Waste Utilization Plan. Until the solids separation facility is
installed, manure solids will be stored in waste. storage ponds. The additional. volume in waste ponds is
216,600 cu ft/60 days or 1,317,650 cu ft per year or 9,856,000 ga. icons/year

G. Sand Lanes and Sand Storage
Freestalls are bedded with sand. Manure and sand are scraped into concrete collection ditches.
The literature indicates that cows waste about 40 Ibs of sand per day per stall. Mr. Koopman indicates
that sand is recycled through barns about once a month.
Sand storage requirement
= (5,000 cows @ 40 lbs/cow/day x 30 days)/2000 Ibs/ton
= 3,000 ton per 30 days
At 100 lbs/cu ft, 60,000 cu ft of storage area will be needed if 1 month of sand is accumulated.
The sand storage area will be approximately 60' x 400' x 5' or 120,000 cu ft.
Sand will need removed daily from the sand lanes. Dirty sand in the lower leg may be moved to
the upper leg to rewash. Sand will be stored next to sand lane. All runoff from sand lane and storage is
stored in waste ponds. Some sand will need to be removed from waste storage pond #1 periodically.
H. Clean Water Exclusion
A. Diversions & Waterways
Clean water diversions and waterways are located around the waste storage ponds and freestall
barns. Diversions and waterways shall carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store some
sediment. Typical diversion is 1.0 feet deep on 0.5% slope for small drainage areas.
B. Guttering
Clean water is excluded to the fullest extent possible by guttering.
C. Culverts
Clean water culverts divert clean water under driveways, gutter outlets from freestall barns, etc.
Pipes shall carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff.
Pipeline Design and Installation, USDA -MRCS Waste Transfer (Code 634)
Gra-Mac Distributing, (2310 NC Hwy 801N, Mocksville, NC 27028-855-829-4766), designed and
installed a 6" SDR 21, PR 200 PVC pipeline around 1998 for slurry waste application. A drag hose
application system uses the installed pipeline and hydrant system to apply slurry waste to application
fields on Tract 4471.
Waste Pond #5 was constructed in 2018 on Tract 11814. HWY 421 separates this tract from the
farm. Farm access road crosses under Hwy 421 at Sandy Creek. Due to safety hazard of trucking waste
to pond #5 across Hwy 421 via state roads, the existing pipeline will be extended to the waste pond #5.
Waste in pond #5 will be spread on cropland on the east side of Hwy 421.
The existing pipeline shall be extended to waste pond #5 in order to transfer slurry waste from
waste ponds at freestall barns. Pipeline will be lengthened by extending the underground line
approximately 2,500 feet and using 3,960 feet of Sludge hose (All -American Hose TSX60, 6"). At end of
underground pipeline, a sludge hose will be used to pipe wastewater under Hwy 421 bridge on farm
road and then across Sandy Creek at culvert crossing near waste pond #5. See proposed mainline to

waste pond #5 drawing in section L below. Additional information about TSX60 sludge hose can be
found at all-americanhose.com. See specification sheet in Section L below.
Mr. Koopman indicates he will contact Gra-Mac (irrigation Specialist) or equal to provide
documentation of design and installation showing that the pipeline meets the requirements of Natural
Resources Conservation Service Practice Standard Waste Transfer (Code 634). See the plans and
specifications section of standard for minimum requirements of design is Section L below.
Designer of pipeline shall provide Operation and Maintenance plan. The plan should document
needed actions to ensure that pipeline for waste transfer performs adequately throughout its expected
life.

Note: See section (E. Waste Nutrient Analyses) for current nutrient test results of waste. Current
nutrient values on Koopman's farm are from milking 2500 cows in lieu of 5000. In future, no more
dilution water will be added to system, therefor, manure concentrations will increase as cow numbers
are increased. The waste tests show a very consistently trend of P205 being 88% of the value of
nitrogen..

L. Information for Existing, Designed and Planned Practices
Five waste storage ponds, sand lane and storage, clean water diversions/waterways, gutters and
downspouts, conduits, etc. are existing practices. Solid manure separation and storage are planned.
Manure separation when completed will gray the wastewater stream and improve quality of sand
harvested to be reused in the freestall barns.

NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE
CONSERVATION PRACTICE STANDARD
WASTE TRANSFER
(Number)
CODE 634
DEFINITION
A system using structures, pipes or conduits
installed to convey wastes or waste byproducts
from the agricultural production site to
storage/treatment or application.
PURPOSE
To transfer agricultural waste material
associated with production, processing, and
harvesting to:
• a storage facility,
• a treatment facility,
• a handling or loading area,
• agricultural land for agronomic application.
CONDITIONS INHERE PRACTICE APPLIES
The waste transfer system is included as an
element of the agricultural production area,
storage/treatment facility and/or land application
areas of the agricultural operation.
The practice applies where: it is necessary to.
transferwaste material generated by li . estock
production or agricultural product processing
from:
• the generation site to the application area.,
• the generation site to a storagettreatment
facility;
• the storage/treatment facility to land for
agronomic application.
This practice does not apply to hauling waste
material with equipment or vehicles.
CRITERIA
General Criteria Applicable to All Purposes
Permits, Notify landowner and/or contractor of
responsibility to locate all buried utilities in the
project area, including drainage tile and other
structural measures. The landowner is also
required to obtain all necessary permits for
project installation prior to construction.
Structures. Structures including concrete pits,
tanks; hoppers, manholes, and channels used
for waste transfer, prefabricated or cast in place,
must meet the criteria in NRCS Conservation
Practice Standard (CPS) Waste Storage Facility
(Code 313) for liquid tightness and structural
strength, regardless of materials used for
construction.
Design all structures, including those that
provide a work area around pumps to withstand
the design static and dynamic loading. Design
structures to withstand earth and hydrostatic
loading as specified for comparable. structural
criteria in NRCS CPS Waste Storage Facility
(Code 31,3).
In locating structures, utilize existing topography
to the greatest extent possible to generate head
on effluent flow and reduce pumping
requirements.
Investigate the subsurface conditions (i.e., depth
to bedrock, soil classification, water table, etc.)
when coca#ing and designing structures.
Size:reception pits .(area$ established to
temporarily accumulate effluent flow) to contain
a minimum volume of one full days waste
production. Provide additional storage for
reception pits receiving storrnwater runoff to
contain the volume of precipitation and runoff
from the 25-year, 24hour storm plus any
required freeboard and emergency storage.
Conseivation practice standards are reviewed periodically and updated if needed. To obtain
the current version of this:stanclard; contact your Natural Resources Conservation.5emoe

634 - 2
Where an intermediate station along a pipeline
is needed for transition of direction or lift in
elevation, and no additional flow will be added to
the pipe at that station, size the direction
transition station or lift station to accommodate
the peak flow, taking into account the designed
outflow.
Design floor openings with structures that
receive manure from alley scrape collection, with
a minimum of 9 square feet, having one
dimension of that opening 4 feet or larger.
Equip floor grate with openings wide enough to
pass the waste and engineered to support the
anticipated live loads. Provide safety features to
prevent accidental entry to the waste reception
pit.
Construct curbs in conjunction with structures
that meet the purpose of this standard and
design criteria in MRCS CPS Waste Storage
Facility (Code 313). Design curbs to be
anchored to withstand working loads. Construct
curbs of sufficient height to ensure all waste
flows into the transfer structure.
Use the NRCS CPS Roofs and Covers (Code
367) to design covers where needed for
structures.
Pipelines/Conduits-General. Design transfer
pipeline/conduits in accordance with sound
engineering principles, taking into account the
waste material properties, management
operations, pipe exposure, static and dynamic
loads on the pipe, working pressure, transfer
system pressure rating, required capacity and all
applicable design factors. Pipe pressure rating
required may need adjustment based on effluent
temperatures and consistency.
Use water tight or sewer grade pipelines and
connection devices for waste transfer pipelines.
The type of liquid waste material and total solids
content will determine the transfer pipe designs
to convey the required flow without plugging.
The minimum pipeline/conduit design capacity
from collection facilities to a storageltreatment
facility is the maximum anticipated peak flow.
Design the pipeline capacity from the
storageltreatment facility to the land application
area, to empty the facility within the time as
outlined in NRCS CPS Nutrient Management
(Code 590) or a Comprehensive Nutrient
Management Plan (CNMP).
NRCS, NC
April 2015
Protect pipes exposed to sunlight from ultraviolet
radiation by selecting UV resistant pipe
materials or by painting the pipe exterior to
withstand UV damage throughout the intended
life of the pipe.
Install pipe properly at all locations to
accommodate any traffic crossing, farming
operations, frost depth, subsurface saturation, or
bedrock elevations. Protect pipe from uplift if
subjected to hydrostatic forces. Separate pipe
installed near bedrock with at least 6 inches of
bedding. Excavation of bedrock is acceptable to
provide bedding depth.
Provide thrust control designed in accordance
with National Engineering Handbook (NEH) Part
636, Chapter 52 for all buried pressure pipe 4
inches and larger in diameter and all angled
fittings and valves.
Maintain the integrity of a wall or liner at pipe
penetrations of waste storage structures,
reception tanks, and channels. The section of
pipe that penetrates the liner of a waste storage
facility wall will have a minimum length of 10 feet
and will be supported with a cast -in -place
concrete restraint. Provide a mechanical joint
restraint, concrete thrust block or concrete
restraint for all joints within 25 feet of the waste
storage facility wall (measured along the length
of the pipe). Protect storage structure liners
from hydrostatic pressures that may be caused
by preferential flow paths along installed pipe.
If cold weather pipeline operation is planned,
design transfer pipe to be: insulated, heated,
buried below anticipated frost depth, constructed
of freeze resistant material, or installed such that
it can be drained after each use by gravity or
compressed air.
Provide clean -out access for all pipelines
transferring waste material to allow for removal
of settled solids or obstructions. For transferring
waste to storagettreatment facilities, space
clean -outs for pipelines at a maximum interval of
150 feet along the pipe length, or a maximum
interval of 300 feet along the pipe length if bi-
directional clean -outs are used. For pipes that
are transferring low solid content wastewater to
cropland for application, incorporate a method to
clean plugged pipes into the design.
Install pipelines with appropriate backflow
prevention devices to prevent return siphoning
of waste.

Wrlml
Install air vents and vacuum relief valves. where
necessary to eliminate air locks, as well as to
protect the pipe against negative pressures.
Pipelines -Pressure: Select.pipe and
appurtenance material that meets the design
working pressure criteria of the system which
also includes air and water pressures used to
clear the pipe.
The pipeline working pressure must not exceed
72% of the pipe rating.
For a pumped system use design velocities
between 3 to 6 feet per second. Limit the waste
stream velocity to 5 feet per second or less if
transfer pipe is not buried or tightly secured.
Fluid velocities in a buried or secured pipelines
may exceed 5 feet per second only if the
pipeline is installed without gates or valves; and
discharges freely to a tank or pond.
The 3. feet per second lower limit does not apply
to a system that is powered by a pump such as
a ram plunger or piston type pump that operates
by pushing semi -solid waste material in a
periodic stroke cycle.
Install a check valve near the outlet of each
pump except where backflow is incorporated
into the design.
Provide a pressure relief valve near the pump(s)
to protect the pipe against any pumpshut-off
head due to a blockage (unless the pump shut-
off head is less than the working pressure of the
transfer system).
Provide a pressure relief valve or properly sized
water hammer arrestor on the pressure side of
shut-off valves to protect against water hammer
due to the sudden closing of a valve:
Size pressure relief valves to be no smaller than
Y4 inch for each inch of the pipe diameter. Set
pressure relief valves to open at a pressure no
greater than 5 psi above the transfer system:
working pressure.
Pipeline -Gravity. In a gravity flow pipe system;
a minimum head is required, depending upon
the consistency of the material.
Minimum feet of hydraulic head - consistency
4 feet - heavily bedded undiluted manure
2 feet - slurry or semi -liquid manure
<1 foot - liquids and 1:1 dilute liquid manure
For a dilute manure gravity pipeline over 100
feet in length increase minimum feet of head by
an additional 1 % of the transfer pipe length
exceeding 100 feet. Ensure that the design flow
velocity is at least 3 feet per second.
Minimum diameter of gravity pipe is 24 inches
for ,heavily bedded high solids content manure.
Convey waste into and through the pipeline to
minimize ponding in the production area Design
the gravity pipe to follow as direct a route as
possible. Horizontal curves or bends in the pipe
joints of a gravity pipeline require special design
considerations except for minor deflections of
less than 10 degrees.
In a gravity flow design that transfers diluted
sand laden manure.; account for the process of
sand settling out of the waste stream. See:
CONSIDERATIONS Transfer Operations
section below. The minimum gravity pipe flow
velocity for dilute manure with sand is 5 feet per
second.
.For a pipeline designed to gravity discharge
liquid waste from a waste storage or treatment
facility; install a manually operated in -line valve
as close to the storage facility as practical. If an
automatic valve is used for a gravity loading or
transfer system on the pipeline, the automatic
valve will be in addition to the manually operated
in -line valve.
Other Conduits. The minimum design velocity
for waste transfer in open ditches and channels
is 1.5 feet per second.
A reinforced cast -in -place concrete lined ditch or
channel for waste transfer will have a minimum
concrete thickness of 5 inches.
Concrete used for conduits must be
proportioned so that it is plastic enough for
thorough consolidation and stiff enough to stay
in place. A dense durable product is required.
Contraction joints in..a concrete conduit, if
required, must beformedtransversely to a depth
of about one-third the thickness of`the lining at a
uniform spacing in the range of 8 to 15 feet.
Provide steel reinforcement or other uniform
support to the joint to prevent unequal
settlement.
Pumps. Use the NRCS CPS Pumping Plant
(Code 533) for a waste transfer pump where
needed.
Select the pump to transfer the waste material at
the. system pressure head and volume (rate)
required. The type of pump will be determined
NRCS, NC
April 2015

634 - 4
by the consistency of the material and the type
of solids. Use pump manufacturer's
recommendations for the installation
requirements.
Correct the total dynamic head for viscosity and
specific gravity of the liquid waste used in pump
selection. Reference AWMFH, Chapter 11,
Waste Utilization, for increased friction losses
caused by higher fluid viscosity and Chapter 12,
Waste Management Equipment, for pump
selection guidance.
Solid/liquid waste separation. Use NRCS
CPS Waste Separation Facility (Code 632) to
design a filtration or screening device, settling
tank, settling basin, or settling channel to
separate a portion of the solids from the manure
or liquid waste stream, as needed.
Safety. Include ventilation provisions for an
enclosed structure. Provide warning signs as
necessary to warn of the danger of entry and to
reduce the risk of explosion, poisoning, or
asphyxiation possible with the waste transfer
system.
Include a water -sealed trap and vent or similar
devices where necessary to control gases from
a pipeline entering an enclosed building or
reception pit.
Reducing a reception pit design volume by flood
routing the design storm runoff storage may be
used only when there is dependable back-up
power supply for pumps and where no impact to
surface water can occur, should the reception pit
pump fail.
Prevent tractors and other equipment from
slipping into waste collection, storage, or
treatment facilities by placing barriers on push -
off ramps.
Provide covers or barriers, such as gates,
fences, grates, etc., across openings to a
manure storage structure.
Identify pipe at risk to being damaged by
equipment or livestock by placing fences or
markers along the pipeline.
Provide a secure cover or otherwise restrict
access to any manually operated in -line valves
of a discharge pipe from a waste storage
structure to prevent unauthorized release of
effluent.
NRCS, NC
April 2015
CONSIDERATIONS
General. Consider economics (including design
life), overall nutrient management system plans,
and health and safety factors.
Consider the timing and location of agitation and
transfer activities to minimize odor formation and
the breeding of insects within the material.
Consider covering and/or minimizing the amount
or number of times the material is disturbed to
reduce the likelihood of air emissions formation
and release of particulate matter, volatile organic
compounds, methane, and ammonia.
Consider abandonment, relocation, or additional
floodproofing for existing reception structures
located in flood prone areas. For additional
information on floodproofing structures, see
"Floodproofing Non -Residential Structures,"
FEMA 102, May 1986, Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
Transfer Operations. Consider installation of
permanent above -ground or buried pipe to
replace hoses and temporary pipe that is used
on a regular basis to transfer waste.
Consider potential loss of loss of pipe integrity
due to internal erosion by the materials being
transported for a flow velocity exceeding 6 feet
per second.
Consider designing the maximum flow area of a
gravity pipe, for a flume system with dilute
manure, at 50% of the pipe depth to maintain
the scouring effect of the flow.
Positive displacement pumps should be
considered for liquid waste with total solids
exceeding 8%.
Consider increasing the total dynamic head up
to 30% for pumping manure slurries with 3-8%
total solids (wet basis).
Consider the use of a wet sump and agitation
pump to reduce solids separation within the
gravity reception structure.
Consider pump selection with a low RPM for
manure slurries which contain abrasives such as
sand.
Consider a semi -open impeller pump to handle
manure slurry with straw, twine, hair and sludge.
Pumps with cutting knives and re -circulation
agitation capacity also reduce plugging.
Consider installing a clean -out or vent riser
within 10feet of the reception structure on

634 - 5
gravity transfer systems in order to reduce the
risk of air lock in the pipe.
Consider using pre -manufactured manholes as
risers at stations to change direction for needed
transitions.
Consider the operating space requirements of
loading and unloading of equipment in the
vicinity of the transfer components.
When applicable and compatible, consider the
dual use of waste transfer pipelines for irrigation
water delivery.
Consider installing a locator wire in the trench
with transfer pipelines.
Chemistry of waste material may need
consideration for corrosion resistance and water
tightness in the selection of pipe material and
joints.
Consider the potential for struvite phosphate
(magnesium ammonium phosphate), mineral
deposition in smaller diameter pipes.
Preventative measures may be needed, such as
acid washing the pipe to prevent deposits.
Consider the need for additional check valves,
clean -outs, vent risers, knife valves, anti -siphon
protection, vacuum relief valves and open air
breaks, as appropriate, on all transfer pipe
systems.
Consider the use of leak detection methods and
equipment for monitoring and periodic pressure
testing of waste transfer systems installed in
sensitive areas, having large daily flow volumes,
long flow lengths or high flow pressures.
Consider installing a manually operated shut off
valve for isolation purposes for gravity discharge
pipe used for transferring waste from one
structure to another.
Consider posting a warning sign on all risers
indicating the transfer system pressure rating.
For solid waste material only, exported off farm,
consider NRCS CPS Waste Recycling (Code
633).
PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Prepare plans and specifications for constructing
a waste transfer system that describe the
requirements for applying this practice to
achieve its intended use.
Construction plans and specifications must
include a location map, plan view, profiles, cross
sections, details and specifications of all
structures, etc., to ensure that the project can be
properly constructed.
Pipeline construction and installation
specifications may be taken from the National
Engineering Handbook sections listed in the
References,
MRCS acceptance requires pressure testing of a
pressure pipe system prior to waste transfer
service. Include the test protocol and results in
the as -built documentation.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Prepare an O&M Plan for review with the
landowner or operator responsible for the
application of this practice. Provide specific
instructions in the O&M Plan for proper
operation and maintenance of each component
of this practice and any detail needed for the
level of repairs to maintain the effectiveness
over the useful life of the practice.
Evaluate the overall functionality of the waste
transfer system for possible malfunctions that
could lead to a spill or release of waste material.
Address the identified potential failures in the
inspection procedures of the operation and.
maintenance plan. Prepare an emergency
response plan to be implemented in the event of
such a failure.
For the purpose of .land application, adequately
agitate Liquid or slurry waste material prior to
transfer.
Flush pipelines used for transferring waste
material with clean water after use, to reduce the
risk of gas build up and pipeline explosion.
Make provisions for removing solids from
conveyance conduits such as concrete lined
ditches, ;grates, etc., during management
operations.
Biosecurity. Handle waste products according
to the state veterinarian guidance on biosecurity
for animal waste material.
Sanitize equipment leaving the farm as
appropriate to prevent the spread of disease.

VEGETATION ESTABLISHMENT
Grading and Shaping
Construct diversions above waste management system components to prevent runoff
from draining into the area. Engineer will make final construction inspection before
seedbed is prepared.
Seedbed Preparation
Rip and disk all disturbed areas 6" deep. Incorporate 2 tons of lime, 1000 lbs. of 10-10-
10 and 500 lbs of 0-20-0 into the soil. Uniformly apply 50 lbs. tall fescue per acre.
Seeding should be completed as soon as possible after construction. Immediately (same
day) mulch with 100 bales of small grain straw per acre. Reseed any rilled or gullied
areas that may develop. A nurse crop should be seeded with fescue. Engineer will
determine whether cool season (25 lbs. rye grainfacre) or warm season (sudex sedan)
nurse crop is needed..

Conservation Practices for Application Fields
Koopman Dairies, Inc. have worked with Randolph Soil and Water District and Natural Resource
Conservation Service to reduce erosion and water quality issues at the Liberty Dairy and on cropland,
hay and pasture production areas. PLAT computations in 2017 Nutrient Management Plan for Animal
Waste Utilization by MRCS indicate that conservation tillage with minimum residue was used on the farm
for corn silage and small grain silage. The conservation planning provided in past years by the Randolph
Soil and Water District and Natural Resource Conservation Service is the background for conservation
practices utilized by the farm today.
Practices have been or will be adapted to all acreage were animal waste is applied. Three
primary multiyear rotations are used on the farm. Corn silage and small grain silage are removed
annually from numerous fields. Some years a sorghum grain silage is planted after corn silage prior to
sowing small grain silage in a few fields. A few fields have a corn silage and small grain cover crop to
further reduce erosion. Numerous fields are used for fescue hay and pasture.
Farmers have approached the dairy requesting manure in lieu of buying commercial fertilizer.
The dairy purchases a significant amount of corn silage from these farmers. Also, farmers have hay
fields and pasture needing manure. These fields are in the nutrient management plan but crop
production is controlled by the other farmer. The farmers use the same conservation practices used by
Koopman Dairies, Inc. Koopman Diary applies the waste to the fields and keeps record of all nutrient
applications of dairy waste and commercial fertilizer. Animal waste utilization agreements for leased
land can be found in Randolph County field office. No other agreements are likely needed since the
dairy owns and has lease agreements on enough land to spread all waste.
Job Sheets are attached for practice 328 — Conservation Crop Rotation, 340 — Cover Crop, 386 —
Field Border, 412 — Grass Waterway and NC590 — Nutrient Management Plan Supplemental Information.
The practices were evaluated and it was determined that when they are applied to application fields,
soil erosion and water quality issues will be within the necessary limits to apply animal waste.
Crop Production Conservation Practices — Record of Decisions
Objective —To manage animal waste to protect water quality on the farm by controlling erosion
and animal waste application. Setbacks or field borders from water conveyances will also reduce
likelihood animal waste leaving the farm. This plan supplements work completed by NRCS and
Randolph County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The Conservation Plan shows conservation practices that meet the resource concerns at the
farmstead (Crop Production Area) determined in this Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan. and
job sheets for the various conservation practices for recommendations for installing and maintaining
practices. Also, see Operation and Maintenance Plans for application equipment in the Farmstead
(Dairy Production Area).
Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan — Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan covers all
fields were animal waste nutrients are applied and will meet the planning criteria described in the
USDA-NRCS Field Technical Guide.

Nutrient Management (Code 590) - Utilize animal waste as nutrient support for hay, pasture and crop
production. Soil test every three years and obtain waste analyses prior to each application. Animal
waste application shall be based on realistic yield expectation of crop or other limitations identified in
the plan. Refer to nutrient management plan and plan maps for each tract for specific land application

and 30' of width. Grass waterway is needed when no -till cropping system will not
prevent rill from developing in the draw. Waste shall not be applied next to surface water, wetlands or
conduits to surface water or wetlands. A 35' setback is allowed for permanent vegetated buffers. A
100' setback is required with no permanent vegetated buffer. The exception is grass waterways that are
designed and maintained according to MRCS standards. Until grass waterway is established, the 35' or
100' buffer shall
apply.

NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
N.C. Practice Job Sheet: NC-590
Prepared for: Koopman Dairies, Inc.
By. Sam Bingham
Farm
WHAT IS NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT?
Nutrient Management is applying nutrients
from all sources with the right placement, in
the right amount, at the right time, and from
the right source to minimize nutrient losses to
surface and groundwater. This practice is
accomplished through development and
implementation of a Nutrient Mana ement
Plan, which can be part of a broader
Conservation Plan or CLAMP that addresses
multiple resource concerns.
PURPOSE OF NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT
A nutrient management plan is intended to
accomplish one or more of the following
objectives:
• To budget, supply, and conserve nutrients for
plant production.
• To minimize agricultural nonpoint source
pollution of surface and groundwater
resources.
• To properly utilize manure or organic by-
products as a plant nutrient source.
To protect air quality by reducing odors,
nitrogen emissions (ammonia, oxides of
nitrogen), and the formation of atmospheric
particulates.
• To maintain or improve the physical, chemical,
and biological condition of soil.
CONTENTS OF THE NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT PLAN
The following components are included in
nutrient management plan specifications
typical of more `traditional'

fertilizer and manure application methods.
When precision ag/variable rate application
technology is utilized, see the next section of
this Job Sheet for additional guidance on plan
requirements.
• aerial site photograph(s)limagery or site
map(s), and a soil survey map of the site,
• Sufficient soils information —such as dominant
soil map until for each planned field —needed
to apply nutrients at RYE and Soil Test Report
determined rates as appropriate; and to not
exceed rates determined by nutrient risk
assessment planning criteria.
• location of designated sensitive areas and the
associated nutrient application restrictions and
setbacks,
• results of approved risk assessment tools for
any necessary evaluations for nitrogen,
phosphorus, and erosion losses.
• current and/or planned plant production
sequence or rotation,
• soil, water, compost, manure, organic by-
product, and plant tissue sample analyses
applicable to the plan. Where non-NCDA soil
testing labs are used, nutrient
recommendations must be made using NCDA-
similar guidelines and methodologies. Note:
high levels of soil copper and zinc may be toxic
to production crops. Land application of these
nutrients must be accordance with
NCSU/NCDA crop toxicity guidelines.
• Realistic yield goals for the crops planned for
nutrient application,
NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015 page 1

• Planned nitrogen application rates based on
NC Realistic Yield Expectations (RYES) or
sufficiently,documented yield records,
• The Nitrogen Leaching Index for planned
fields,
• Planned P & K application rates based on soil
test results (see next section where P & K
applied through variable rate technology).
• listing and quantification of all nutrient sources
and form, including starter fertilizer
applications and legume -based cover crop
mixes.
• in accordance with the nitrogen and
phosphorus risk assessment tool(s), specify
the recommended nutrient application source,
timing, amount (except for precision/variable
rate applications specify method used to
determine rate), and placement of plant
nutrients for each field or management unit,
and
• guidance for implementation, operation and
maintenance, and recordkeeping as specified
by the CNMP or applicable NC DWQ or
NDPES permit.
Where recision/variable rate nutrient
application applications are planned and
made, some required planning components of
the preceding section may be provided by the
overall conservation plan. In addition, the
following components are required in nutrient
management planning.
• The geo-referenced field boundary and data
collected that was processed and analyzed as
a GIS layer or layers to generate nutrient or
soil amendment recommendations.
• Planned nitrogen application rates based on
NC RYEs or sufficiently documented yield
records
• The Nitrogen Leaching Index for planned
fields.
• The nutrient recommendation guidance and
recommendation equations used to convert the
GIS base data layer or layers to a nutrient
source material recommendation GIS layer or
layers.
• Soil testing documentation that crop
Phosphorus (P205) and Potassium (K20)
nutrient or soil amendment application will be
made per soil test results similar to NCDA
guidelines. Where P & K will not be applied
via variable rate application technology, but by
basic GPS guidance, recommended P & K
NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015
rates must be provided as specifications prior
to application.
• Note —where Diammonium phosphate (18-46-
0) is the primary variable rate P fertilizer
source applied on legume crops, additional N
will likely be needed to achieve RYEs.
The plan was developed based on the current
NRCS 590 standard and Federal, state, or
local regulations or policies. Changes in laws
or regulations may require a plan modification.
This Job Sheet is a required supplement to
the Nutrient Management Plan.
NC Permitted Animal Operations: For NC
DENR-DWR or NPDES permitted animal
operations, the waste utilization portion of the
Certified Animal Waste Management Plan
(CAWMP) must meet requirements specified by
the Permit. The NC 1217 Interagency Group
provides guidance on the required minimum
elements of a CAWMP. This guidance is found in
Sec 1.1 of the latest 1217 Guidance Document,
located at:
htt4 //www.ncar. i, ov/SWC/tech/quidancedocumen
ts. html.
Nitrogen Leaching Index Values
Nitrogen Leaching Index values obtained through
use of current Soil Hydrologic Group SHG -based
LI index maps in Sec II of the NC FOTG or RUSLE
2 field -specific soil loss calculations are included
in the Nutrient Management Plan. SHGs per soil
map unit are available through selection of the Soil
Data Explorer and Soil Properties and Qualities
(then select "Soil Qualities and Features") tabs
once an Area of Interest has been defined in
NRCS Web Soil Survey.
If the Nitrogen Leaching Index > 10 for planned
fields, appropriate conservation practices must be
included in a conservation plan to prevent nitrogen
from leaving the field via surface or subsurface
runoff.
Below are conservation crop management
techniques and practices recommended for
mitigation of nitrate losses (practices also
documented in conservation plan):

NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
DEVELOPMENT
The nutrient management plan has been
developed to meet nutrient application rate criteria
for all sources of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium
as specified by NRCS 590 Nutrient Management
standard criteria.
In addition to NCDA Agronomic Division soil test
recommendations, or soil test recommendations
made through similar guidelines, the plan is based
on NC INMC approved values for realistic yield
goals, nitrogen factors, phosphorus removal rates,
default nutrient values for animal waste, plant
availability coefficients for N, P, and K, and animal
waste generation volumes where applicable.
Approved values are found at:
hip 3.Anutdents. soil. ncsu. edufindex. htm
Where manure is applied, farm records may also
be used through a procedure provided in SB 1217
Interagency Group guidance, available at:
hi# .1Avww.nca r. govISWCAechll217committee.ht
ml
For NC permitted animal operations, planning
requirements for Plan "Amendments" (minor
modifications) and `Revisions" (Major
Modifications) are clarified by SB 1217 Interagency
Group Guidance.
ADDITIONAL PHOSPHORUS -RELATED
PLAN INFORMATION (Applicable icable when
increases in Soil Test P are expected on
the planned area
In NC, a field -specific Phosphorus Loss
Assessment Tool (PLAT) evaluation is completed
in accordance with 590 Nutrient Management
standard General Criteria requirements, and
phosphorus must be applied in accordance with
590 standard Manure Phosphorus Application
Rates.
In addition to the basic plan components, plan
information on PLAT categorical ratings, P
drawdown strategies, and conservation practices
to reduce P loss risk is required when increases in
Soil Test P are exoected on the planned area.
Typically, this could occur when manure is
consistently applied at Nitrogen -based rates. High
levels of phosphorus in the surface soil layer have
been linked to increasing risk of P loss through
surface runoff and leaching.
❑ Increases in Soil Test P are expected
on the planned area (not typical if P
application made per soil test results).
NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015
PLAT Categorical Ratings Information
When soil test phosphorus continues to increase
on a long term basis, PLAT may produce results
that require P-based manure application planning
and planning for no additional manure P.
Conditions that will require P-based or no-P
planning will be based on site specific resource
conditions, which will facilitate data input into
PLAT. PLAT categorical ratings that will require
enhanced P application planning are:
HIGH: P-based manure application is required
(limited to P uptake in harvested crop biomass)
VERY HIGH: No additional manure P or starter P
application to be specked in nutrient management
plan.
Phosphorus Drawdown Strate y
Information:
Implementation of a phosphorus'drawdown'
strategy may be a consequence of PLAT results,
or may be requested in order to lower soil test
phosphorus levels.
Should a reduction in soil test P be desired or
necessary, the only currently proven method of
substantial P 'drawdown' is to not apply manure -
based P and to plant and harvest crops that utilize
P currently present in the soil surface.
Crop specific estimated annual P removal amounts
are available on the NCSU Nutrient Management
in NC website:
hft-,l://nutrients.soil.ncsu.edu/vields/index.ph
Conservation Practices and Management
Techniques to Reduce P Loss Potential:
Conservation practices, especially those that
prevent soil particle detachment and trap sediment
at field edges are effective in preventing
phosphorus movement from the planned site.
Manure application techniques can also be applied
to reduce P loss risk. These practices must be
included in the conservation plan where
determined PLAT risk = HIGH for planned fields.
Consult the conservation plan developed in
conjunction with the nutrient management plan for
information on practices recommended to reduce
phosphorus AND noo2en loss risks. Application
management techniques to reduce nutrient loss
risk may be prescribed below:
page 3

Long Term Strategy for Reduction of Soil P
Levels:
As noted in the P drawdown strategy section, the
only currently proven method for reducing high
levels of soil P is not applying P, paired with
producing crops on the planned site that use
existing soil P. Where soil P and PLAT
evaluations indicate an increasing risk to water
quality, substantially reducing soil P levels through
crop uptake can take many years of
implementation. When P is not applied, and
existing soil P is used by crops, eventually, soil will
become P deficient. Consult CES or NCDA
Regional Agronomy specialists for additional
information soil test P reduction timelines.
Manure P produced in excess of crop
requirements:
Consult the nutrient management plan for a
quantification of manure generated by the animal
feeding operation that may exceed crop P
requirements.
"Manure Hauler" Information
All manure waste applied on land owned by or
controlled by the Animal Feeding Operation (AFO)
owner or operator must be included in the nutrient
management plan. The volume difference in total
manure waste generated by the AFO and waste
applied to land not owned or controlled by the
producer must be accounted for in a nutrient
management plan.
General information on manure waste generated
by an AFO to be applied to land not owned or
controlled by the AFO owner or operator may be
recorded as specified in the NC CNMP
Certification Sheet and Documentation Checklist or
other supplemental documentation to the nutrient
management plan. NRCS CNMP technical criteria
require documentation of manure exports off the
farm this can be done below . The AFO
owner/operator should provide the third party
applicator with a current waste analysis in order to
facilitate agronomic crop application of the facility's
generated waste. Should land not owned or
controlled by the AFO owner or operator be
included in a nutrient management plan, the
complete plan must meet 590 criteria.

NC-590 Job Sheet May 2015
RECORDKEEPING
Waste reports from the NCDA & CS Agronomic
Division, or equivalent, are acceptable sources of
information for determining applied manure nutrient
amounts for recordkeeping or crop budgeting
purposes.
Records must be maintained for at least 5 years, or
for time and manner required by Permit for animal
operations to document plan implementation and
maintenance. As applicable, records include:
• soil, plant tissue, water, manure, and
organic by-product analyses resulting in
recommendations for nutrient application,
• quantities, analyses and sources of
nutrients applied,
• dates, and method(s) of nutrient
applications, source of nutrients, and rates
of application,
• weather conditions and soil moisture at the
time of application; lapsed time to manure
incorporation; rainfall or irrigation event,
• crops planted, planting and harvest dates,
yields, nutrient analyses of harvested
biomass, and crop residues removed,
• dates of plan review, name of reviewer,
and recommended changes resulting from
the review, and
• all enhanced efficiency fertilizer products
used.
Additional records for precision/variable rate
sites must include:
• maps identifying the variable application
source, timing, amount, and placement of
all plant nutrients applied, and
• GPS-based yield maps for crops where
yields can be digitally collected.
• Documentation per field nitrogen
application rates do not exceed RYE -
based recommended rates
• Documentation that applied phosphorus
and potassium recommendations do not
exceed recommended rates specked by
soil tests.
• For non -variable rate application of P & K,
provide applied map with field boundaries
indicating source, timing, method, and rate
of all applications.
• Where `chlorophyll reader' technology is
utilized, application records that nitrogen
rates match RYE -based N rates as closely
as possible.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The producer is responsible for safe operation and
maintenance of this practice, including all
equipment_ Review the plan periodically to
determine if adjustments or modifications to the
plan are needed. In NC, animal operations
permitting provisions may specify more frequent
review periods. Adhere to the following operation
and maintenance provisions:
• Protect fertilizer and organic by-product
storage facilities from weather and accidental
leakage or spillage.
• Properly calibrate application equipment to
ensure uniform distribution of material at
planned rates.
• Workers should be protected from and avoid
unnecessary contact with inorganic fertilizers
and organic by-products. Extra caution must
be taken when handling ammonia sources of
nutrients, or when dealing with organic wastes
stored in unventilated enclosures.
• The disposal of material generated by the
cleaning of nutrient application equipment
should be accomplished properly. Excess
material should be collected and stored or field
applied in an appropriate manner. Excess
material should not be applied on areas of high
potential risk for runoff or leaching.
• Disposal or recycling of nutrient containers
should be done according to state and local
guidelines or regulations.

A shaped or graded channel that is established with suitable vegetation to carry surface water at a non -
erosive velocity using a broad and shallow cross section to a stable outlet.
PURPOSE
FM', Convey runoff from terraces, diversions, or other water concentrations without causing erosion or
flooding
❑■ Prevent gully formation
❑■ Protect/improve water quality
CRITERIA
All grassed waterways will have a stable outlet with adequate capacity to prevent ponding or flooding
damages. The outlet can be another vegetated channel, earthen ditch, grade stabilization structure, filter
strip, or other suitable outlet.
Use subsurface drains, underground outlets, or stone center waterways to keep vegetation established on
sites having high water tables, prolonged flows, or seepage problems.
Establish vegetation as soon as possible using the site specific guidance below. Use mulch anchoring,
nurse crop, rock or straw or hay bale dikes, fabric or rock checks, filter fences, or runoff diversion to
protect the vegetation until it is established. Planting of a close growing crop, e.g. small grains or millet, on
the contributing watershed prior to construction of the grassed waterway can also significantly reduce the
flow through the waterway during establishment.
Provide livestock and vehicular crossings as necessary to prevent damage to the waterway and its
vegetation.
Job Sheet — Grassed Waterway (412) May 2015
Page 1 of 4

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
• Establish a maintenance program to maintain waterway capacity, vegetative cover, and outlet
stability. Vegetation damaged by machinery, herbicides, or erosion must be repaired promptly.
• Protect waterway from concentrated flow by using diversion of runoff or mechanical means of
stabilization (such as silt fences, mulching, and hay bale barriers, etc.) during vegetation
establishment.
• Minimize damage to vegetation by excluding livestock whenever possible, especially during wet
periods_ Permit grazing in the waterway only when a controlled grazing system is being
implemented.
inspect grassed waterways regularly, especially following heavy rains. Fill, compact, and reseed
damaged areas immediately. Remove sediment deposits to maintain capacity of grassed waterway.
• Avoid use of herbicides that would be harmful to the vegetation or pollinating insects in and adjacent
to the waterway area.
• Avoid using waterways as turn -rows during tillage and cultivation operations. Do not use waterways
as a field road. Avoid crossing with heavy equipment when wet. Lift tillage equipment off the
waterway when crossing and turn off chemical application equipment.
• Mow or periodically graze vegetation to maintain capacity and reduce sediment deposition. Mowing
may be appropriate to enhance wildlife values, but must be conducted to avoid peak nesting
seasons and reduced winter cover.
• Apply supplemental nutrients as needed to maintain the desired species composition and stand
density of the waterway.
• Control noxious weeds.

Grading and Shaping
Construct waterway in natural draw. Grass waterway should end in a vegetated area that can
withstand the'erosive flow. See depth and top width of parabolic waterway design in table
above for typical waterway slopes found on Koopmans farm.
Seedbed Preparation
Rip and disk all disturbed areas 6" deep. Incorporate 2 tons of lime, 1000 lbs. of 10-10-10 and
500 lbs of 0-20-0 into the soil. Uniformly apply 50 lbs. tall fescue per acre. Seeding should be
completed as soon as possible after construction. Immediately (same day) mulch with 100 bales
of small grain straw per acre. Reseed any rilled or gullied areas that may develop. A nurse crop
should be seeded with fescue. Engineer will determine whether cool season (25 lbs. rye

Description of work:
A 35' strip of permanent vegetation established and/or maintained at the downhill edge of all cropland,
hayfields and pasture. The buffer must be maintained above all perennial streams and conduits to streams
(including field ditches or gullies). Vegetation in buffer includes wooded areas and grass. Waste shall not be
applied next to surface water, wetlands or conduits to surface water or wetlands. A 35' setback is allowed
for vegetated buffers. A 100' setback is required with less than 35' vegetated buffer. Vegetated buffer is
measured from top of ditch toward the field. Note: The Field border setback for waste application applies at
grass waterways until grass waterway is established with no visible gully or wash.

'To figure pure live seed (PLS) rates, multiply the percent purity by the percent germination. Divide the seeding rate by
the percent PLS to find the bulk seed needed per acre.
For example: 981Y. purity X 60% germination = 0.588% PLS 10 lbs/acre X 0.588% PLS = 17 lbs/acre.

386 — Field Border
Implementation Requirements
Operation and Maintenance. (check all that apply)
® Repair storm damage.
® Remove sediment from above or within the field border when accumulated sediment either alters the
function of the field border or threatens the degradation of the planted species' survival.
® Shut off sprayers and raise tillage equipment to avoid damage to field borders.
® Shape and reseed border areas damaged by animals, chemicals, tillage, or equipment traffic.
® Maintain desired _vegetative communities and plant vigor by liming, fertilizing, mowing, disking, or
burning and controlling noxious weeds to sustain effectiveness of the border.
® Repair and reseed ephemeral gullies and rills that develop in the border.
Minimally invasive tillage (e.g., paraplowing) may be performed in rare cases where compaction and
N vehicle traffic have degraded the field border function. The purpose of the tillage is strictly to decrease
bulk density and increase infiltration rates so as to provide a better media for reestablishment of
vegetation and field border function.
® Maintenance activities that result in disturbance of vegetation should not be conducted during the
nesting season of grass -nesting birds
® Avoid vehicle traffic when soil moisture conditions are saturated
