Dear Sir or Madam:
Please find (2) complete animal waste management plans, drawings, and maps•. The purpose of this plan is to comply with Regulation 5 by updating tJlewaste management plan to reflect changes in animal numbers and categories. This is not a majof modification as animal units will increase by 9.7%. The operation is currently covered under permit # 3713-WG-AW and CSN # 29-0088. This operation is changing from a Tyson 600 sow-pig operation to a Cargill sow operation (790 sows, 5 boars). There will be no modifications to waste holding pond or debris basin. Waste will be applied with a traveling gun and honey wagon.

AGRICULTURAL WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN UPDATE TO EXISTING PERt"nT (J713-WG-AW) AND CSN FILE # 29-0088 FOR
THE BOBBY FISHER S"YINE FARM IN HEMPSTEAD COUNTY, ARKANSAS
PLAN OF OPERATION
The Bobby Fisher fann is located approximately 1.25 miles east of Springhill, AR on Arkansas Highway 355 in Sections 30 and 31, Township 13 S, Range 24 W. Mr. Fisher plans to modify his operation to a 795 animal Cargill complex. The current operation is a Tyson 600 sow-pig complex. The facilities will house 140 lactating sows, 650 gestating sows, and 5 boars. The facilities will temporarily house newborn pigs for 14-21 days (10 Ibs. each) until they are relocated by Cargill; the waste produced by these nursery pigs is negligible. The average weight of the sows and boars is estimated at 325 lbs per animal. A total of six buildings will house the animals. The buildings are currently flushed daily using approximately 4200 gallons per day (six 700 gallon flush tanks) ofwater recycled from the waste holding JX?nds. The existing waste storage structures consist of2 debris basins and 2 waste holding ponds (* see notation below). Waste in flushed into the debris basins with solids being separated there and then into the waste holding pon~.
The waste holding ponds were designed to hold 180 day volume ofwaste, washwater, direct rainfall, and the 25 year-24 hour storm event. The waste holding ponds will be pumped twice a year and 22 inches of freeboard maintained at all times. The debris basins will be cleaned out as needed and land applied following the nutrient management plan. A Cargill approved incinerator will be in used for dead hog disposal and an emergency burial site will be located on the farm for catastrophic mortality.
* This operation has 2 clay-lined earthen settling (debris) basins and 2 clay-lined waste holding ponds. The combined storage for the debris basins is 23, 251 cu. ft. and 270, 270 cu. It. tor the waste holding ponds. The total required required storage for 180 period doring the months of highest precipitation-evaporation is 76,657 cu. ft. and this assumes a 50% freshwater 50% recycled water flush. The landowner currently recycles 100 % of flushwater. Therefore, the available waste storage for this operadon is more than adequate for the animal numbers proposed.
WASTE APPLICATION
The holding pond and debris basin shall be pumped and the waste applied in accordance with the nutrient management plan contained within this report. Application will be performed with a sprinkler irrigation system and a honeywagon. The pond will be pumped March - October and fall pumpdown will provide 180 days of storage for winter and early spring period when application may be difficult and/or soils are saturated. The debris basins shall have 45 days storage and will be cleaned out as needed and waste applied March - October. Land application area consists ofmixed warm-season grass pastures typically interseeded in the fall with a cool season annual such as wheat, rye, or ryegrass. Waste shall not be applied to saturated soils or forages which are in a dormant state. The waste shall be applied unifonnly over the designated areas and not to exceed a
I nitrogen rate of2oo lbs. N. per acre per year. The minimum required acreage to dispose ofannual production ofmanure is 42 acres.
The fann contains approximately 130 acres of land application area. Approximately 28 acres is available cn Mr. Fisher's property and 102 acres is available on Mrs. Joyce Bobo's property which is contiguous and directly adjacent to Mr. Fisher's fann. Waste will be applied to mixed warm-season grass pastures. Cool-season annuals may be interseeded in the fall on this acreage as welL
MAINTENANCE
The embankments of the holding pond, debris basin, and around the facilities as well are currently and will continue to be maintained by mowing several times during the growing season to prevent noxious weed problems and encourage vigorous grass growth to keep embankments stable and prevent erosion. If the embankment is damaged it should be repaired immediately and revegetated. Fences shall be installed and should be maintained around the system to prevent access by human andlor animal life. Runoff is currently and shall continue to be diverted away from the debris basin and holding pond. Any plastic pipe that is to be exposed to direct sunlight shall be ofultraviolet resistant materials, protected by coating, covered, or revisions shall be made to replace it
BUFFER ZONES
Waste should not be applied to frozen, snow-covered or saturated ground. Waste should not be applied prior to a precipitation event that is expected to exceed 0.25 inches. Waste win not be applied to slopes greater than 15%, or allowed to run into the waters of the State ofArkansas.
Waste application should not be within 100ft. of streams, ponds, lakes, springs, wells, or rock outcrops or 500ft. ofneighboring occupied buildings unless the property owner consents in writing. The waste application area for this facility is not located near extraordinary resource waters as described by DEQ Regulation 2.
NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
The waste utilization area consists of 130 acres ofmixed bermudagrass pastures interseeded with cool season annuals in the fall. The total nutrient requirements per year for the the waste application area is shown on the next page.

ODOR CONTROL PLAN
The fiumet',sball make every effort to minimize odors that coJJlC~m.·his . system and application areas. Until other methods are foundit4e'1~~ Neighbor Policy" sha11 be followed This includes the following'ptOCedures along with any other methods the fiumer deems necessary. ' .
1. The waste management system including the storage pondslJ8.g~Onsf building and surrounding area shall be kept clean and operated according to the management plan.
2. Application of waste shall not be made on weekends of holidays in areas where houses will be affected.
3. Application of waste shall be scheduled to take a4vantage of pro~r weather conditions (ex. Low humidity and cool tempera~).
4. Application of wastes using an irrigation system can heJP to'JPinbnize odors. If the liquid is distributed on the fields' in a relat.iyeIy short period of time, .the odors that may result fi:om -that app~on will dissipate fiUrly quickly. Wastes should be applied during{). ~rt a
- time period as possible. This will give less "opportunity time~' for the odors to be offensive.
5. The PH ofthe pond can be very important in the control ofodors. An ideal level of 6.0 to 6.S can be achieved through the use of hydrated lime ifthe existing levels are low.

I Record Keeping and Reporting
Records shall be kept of all waste/wastewater applied. These recordS sbai.l be kept in sufficient detail to determine the application rate. A log sball be kept of all land-applied waste/wastewater. The log should include· date, weight and/or volume, destination and acreage over which the load was spread. All records and logs shall be kept at the &cility and provided to the Department upon request.
A fonn similar to the attached"ANIMAL WASTE LAND APPUCATION RECORD FOR PERMl7TED CONFINED ANIMAL FAClUTlES' should be used to record all pertinent data. This form should be filled out at the time ofeach waste application.
A representative sample of the waste/wastewater shall be collected and anal~ at least annually. The Extension Service can assist producers with the necessary procedures. .
The soils ofeach field where liquid animal waste has been applied shall be sampled and analyzed anmmlly pl10r to the appti.caiion ofwastes. Sampling and testing shall be in accordance with the University of Arbnsas Cooperative Extension Service guidelines.
Annual reports for the previous calendar year shall be submitted to the Deplrtment.. prior to May 30th of each year. A copy of the report form "ANNUAL REPORT FORM FOR PERMrlTED CONFINED ANIMAL FACIUTIES' is attached to this report.

EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENT: Within one year of the permit approval date, operators of a confined animal operation must receive at leas~ four hours of individuali~ed training concerning the operation of their liqUid vaste
.management system. This training vill be provided by the individual or organization developing the plans for the liqUid vaste management system, usually Soil Conservation Service (SCS). This individual or organization has no role in regulating the provisions of Regulation No. S but is required by the Regulation to conduct the training vith a currlcul~ approved by the
. Cooperative Extension S~rvice (CES).
PROCEDURES: The SCS and CBS have jointly developed the curriculum tbat vill serve a. the guidance for providing this training. This curriculum is included on the reverse side.
On· those vaste management systems developed by SCS, indlviduaLa providing the planding, design and construction auistance should educate tbe producer on those items identified on the reverse side of this document.
No~UYI SCS personnel vill provide the training on items I through IV. As tralnlng b provided, the date and amount of training time sliould be recoJ;'ded vith inltlalJ.,.of the trainer. It is recClIIllIleaded that.the producers J'liitials be obtained, altbouCh this 11 not a requirement. AI each block. of traib,lll& is completed,' that block. .hould normally be slgned'b,.. the District ~ Con.ervationist. _
Thi. fo~ sbould then be provided to the County Agent at tbe local CES'office for the training on va.te ,ampling.and 80il 'sampling procedures. The County Agent should .ign the signature block on item V. .
