I Cattle will be checked on 2x daily. Cattle will always have fresh water in their 250 gallonlcout. They always have access to hay, and will be fed grain 2x daily. The cattle will have shelter in carports, with straw bedding. We meet all the requirements for feedlot setbacks. Our manure management plan is that we plan on stock piling our manure in a holding area where it will get covered with a tarp to keep the smell down. We also have permission from Mike Slater who stated that we can spread our manure on his fields for fertilizer. We also are looking into potentially selling the manure as well. The noise of the cattle should not be a concern as there is 2 properties across the street and 2 doors down that also have cattle. We have 3 pastures for the cattle. Two of the pastures are for grazing and then the third is a sacrificial pasture. We will also register with the state of MN as a feedlot. We have supplied documents from varies sources about feedlots and requirements. We have done our due diligence to make sure we have followed the requirements and needs of the city. i 11:11 n,..P S._. 6 Messages 3,, --.. .

R. 7020.2225). This is based on the revisions to state rules governing feedlots and the storage and use of manure effective October 23,2000. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency(MPCA)manure application requirements are summarized in Table 1 for different sizes of facilities. When ownership of manure is transferred,the manure application requirements must correspond with requirements for the number of animal units at the farm where the manure was produced. Table 1. Summary of manure application requirements in general Required for Required for 100 to Required for 300 to Required for 1000 Requirements under 100 AU? 299 AU? 999 AU? or more AU Manage manure to prevent Yes Yes Yes Yes pollution of waters Follow maximum nutrient rate Yes Yes Yes Yes limits Maintain setbacks from sensitive Yes Yes Yes Yes features Test manure for nitrogen and No Where stored manure Where stored manure Yes phosphorus content is from over 100 AU is from over 100 AU Test soils for phosphorus No No Yes Yes Develop and maintain a manure No If permit is required If permit is required,or Yes management plan if applied by non- certified person Keep land application records No Yes Yes Yes Manure and process wastewater must be applied to land in a manner that will not result in a discharge to waters of the state during the application process.Also,manure and process wastewater must not be applied using practices known to cause water pollution from manure-contaminated runoff during rainfall or snowmelt events. Nutrient Application Rate Standards Maximum manure application rates are limited by crop-available nitrogen on all land. However,phosphorus-based rate requirements must also be met in certain sensitive situations as summarized in Table 2 and further discussed on pages 3-5. Table 2. Summary of nutrient application rate requirements for manure Nitrogen(N) a)Cannot exceed crop N needs for non-legumes b)Cannot exceed crop N removal for legumes Phosphorus a)No long-term soil P build-up near waters P) b)Manure management plan with P management strategy required if applying to extremely high P soils and facility is over 300 AU Potassium No restrictions in rule wq-f8-11 February 2011 Minnesota Pollution Control Agency • 520 Lafayette Rd. N.,St. Paul, MN 55155-4194 • www.pca.state.mn.us 651-296-6300 • 800-657-3864 • TTY 651-282-5332 or 800-657-3864 • Available in alternative formats On all land receiving manure and/or process wastewater,application rates must be limited so that the estimated plant- available nitrogen from all nitrogen sources does not exceed a)expected crop nitrogen needs for non-legume crops and b) expected nitrogen removal for legumes. All nitrogen sources to be considered include: commercial fertilizer nitrogen manure applied for current and previous year soil organic matter irrigation water legumes grown during previous years biosolids and process wastewater(e.g. septage,milkhouse waste, silage leachate, etc.) Determinations of crop nitrogen needs,removal rates,and the amount of nitrogen available from manure or legumes must be based on published recommendations of the University of Minnesota Extension Service or another land grant college in a contiguous state,with the following exceptions: Estimated plant-available nitrogen from organic nitrogen sources,including manure,may deviate up to 20 percent from University of Minnesota recommendations if management history, soil conditions or cool weather warrants additional nitrogen application. When crop nitrogen deficiencies are visible or measured,nitrogen applications above the 20 percent deviation can be made. For most situations,there should not be a need to deviate from University recommendations since the University has already factored uncertainties about the conversion of manure nitrogen to plant- available forms of nitrogen. To determine University of Minnesota Extension Service published recommendations for crop nutrient needs,please contact your County Extension Office,or call 1-800-876-8636 to obtain a copy of the most 11 recently published documents titled Fertilizer Recommendations for Agronomic Crops in Minnesota,Fertilizing Corn in Minnesota, and Manure Management in Minnesota. To determine maximum manure-application rates,use nutrient 9 - 1',4.3`,' w • it planning aids that incorporate University of Minnesota recommendations(or those of a land grant college in Wisconsin,Iowa, North Dakota or South Dakota). The following websites provide University of Minnesota recommendations: www.manure.umn.edu www.pca.state.mn.us/hot/feedlots.html http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/nutrient.html Manure Nutrient Testing Manure from all storage areas storing manure produced by more than 100 animal units must be tested by the feedlot owner for nitrogen and phosphorus content at least once every four years,given the following requirements have been met: 1. For feedlots with 300 or more animal units that are not required to have an National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES)permit,three years of annual testing have been conducted in the past and the results have been consistent. 2. Additional samples are taken and manure tested whenever there are changes in manure nutrient content due to unusual climatic conditions or changes in manure storage and handling,livestock types,or feed. Only the individual storage areas that hold manure from more than 100 animal units must be tested. For example,testing is not required for each small stockpile generated by less than 100 animal units. Laboratories certified by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture(MDA)or MPCA approved on-farm sampling and analysis must be used. A list of laboratories providing manure testing services can be obtained at the MDA website. Land Application of Manure: Minimum State Requirements • wq- f8-11 • February 2011 Minnesota Pollution Page 2 Control Agency A representative sample must be obtained. See University of Minnesota Extension Service recommended procedures in Livestock Manure Sampling"FO-6423-GO,which can be obtained through your county extension agent,calling d1-800-876-8636,or via Extension Service on-line publications catalog found at:http://www.extension.umedu/unitsn. c/. Soil Phosphorus Testing (300 or more AU) For land receiving manure from a facility with 300 or more animal units, soil samples from the upper six inches must be collected at least once every four years and analyzed for phosphorus using the Bray P1 or Olsen test. Bray P1 tests are typically used when soil pH is less than 7.4,and the Olsen test can be used with a broad range of soil pH. 1. - - The owner of a feedlot with 300 or more animal units must apply for an interim permit and submit a manure management plan if manure is to be applied onto soils where: Soil phosphorus levels exceed 75 ppm(Bray P1)or 60 ppm(Olsen) within 300 feet of lakes,streams,intermittent streams,Department of Natural Resources(DNR)-protected wetlands,unbermed drainage ditches and open tile intakes. Soil phosphorus levels exceed 150 ppm(Bray P1)or 120 ppm(Olsen)outside of the 300-foot zones noted above. If the producer continues manure applications onto soils exceeding the above thresholds,then the manure management plan must include a description of how phosphorus is to be managed to minimize risks to surface waters. The plan should provide sufficient details so that the MPCA or delegated county feedlot officer can evaluate it to make sure that continued manure applications will not lead to water pollution. Manure Application Near Sensitive Features Protective measures are required for application near sensitive features, as summarized in Table 3. Further information can be found in the publication"Applying manure in sensitive areas"or the MPCA website found on page 8. Additional requirements may also apply when NPDES permit conditions are more restrictive than minimum state requirements. Management Zones Around Sensitive Features Open tile inlet 300 ft. soo ft.

Wetland setbacks pertain to all protected wetlands identified on DNR protected waters and wetlands maps(these maps are often located in County Soil and Water Conservation District offices and typically include all wetlands over 10 acres). Surface Waters:A 300-foot setback from surface waters applies to all manure spread onto frozen or snow-covered soils. The non-winter setbacks for manure application in special protection areas(within 300 feet of lakes, streams,intermittent streams,public waters wetlands and unbermed drainage ditches)depend on application methods,vegetated buffer widths, and phosphorus management practices as follows: 1. Non-winter setbacks can be reduced from 300 feet to 25 feet,if the manure is immediately incorporated and the rate and frequency of manure application will not result in long-term soil phosphorus build-up(e.g. over any six-year period)on soils with phosphorus test levels exceeding 21 ppm Bray P1 or 16 ppm Olsen. Crop removal rates of phosphorus can be used as a guide for limiting phosphorus rates until subsequent soil testing results are available to determine if phosphorus build-up is occurring. 2. Non-winter setbacks can also be reduced along waters where permanent vegetative buffers are established.Where vegetated buffers are at least 100 feet wide along lakes and streams and 50 feet wide along wetlands, intermittent streams, and unbermed drainage ditches,the setbacks can be reduced to 100 and 50 feet,respectively. The surface water setback for manure applied by a traveling gun or other irrigation equipment is 300 feet. Open Tile Intakes: All manure and process wastewater must be injected or immediately incorporated when applied within 300 feet of an open tile intake. Sinkholes: Do not apply manure to land within 50 feet of a sinkhole. Inject or immediately incorporate when applying manure from 50 to 300 feet on the upslope side of a sinkhole. Mines,Wells and Quarries: Do not apply to land within 50 feet of a mine,well or quarry. Road Ditches:The feedlot rules specifically prohibit manure application into road ditches. Manure Management Plan Requirements A manure management plan is a written description of how manure generated at the facility is going to be utilized during the upcoming cropping year(s)in a way that protects surface-water and groundwater quality,while also being beneficial from an agronomic and economic standpoint. Some planning is needed prior to applying manure to ensure that the manure application standards are not exceeded and that the benefits from manure are maximized. The MPCA recommends that a manure management plan be developed for all livestock operations. However,the MPCA does not require MPCA-approved manure management plans at all facilities. Manure management plans are required when: Land Application of Manure: Minimum State Requirements • wq-f8-11 • February 2011 Minnesota Pollution Page 4 control Agency Manure Management Plans for Transferred Manure:When ownership of manure is transferred,the manure management plan is partially completed by the facility where the manure is produced(general information)and partially completed by the manager of the fields where the manure is applied(field specific information)unless the site generating the manure has a complete manure management plan. The manager of the cropland where the manure is applied must comply with all state feedlot rule requirements related to nutrient rates, setbacks and soil testing. For further information about the specific requirements of a manure management plan and how to develop a plan,please see the fact sheet entitled"Manure Management Plan Requirements,"available at the website on page 8. Record-keeping Keeping records of certain manure application practices is required for all feedlot facilities with 100 or more animal units, even when a manure management plan is not required. Forms and spreadsheets for keeping required records are available from the MPCA at the website on page 8. Good records are important to account for second-year nitrogen from manure applications. Records also allow better estimates to be made of total manure nutrients generated at the farm,thus aiding in future planning efforts. Manure application records must be kept for the most recent three years,except that records must be kept for six years at NPDES permitted feedlots and when manure is applied at any site within 300 feet of lakes, streams,intermittent streams, 4,00,4 p 1 i t x rbn X1 C ni e .. a A'. ate 3'' drainage ditches that are not protected by berms or DNR protected wetlands. The required record-keeping elements for various categories of feedlots are included in Table 5. Where ownership of manure is transferred for application to fields not owned or leased by the feedlot owner,the manager of the cropland where manure is applied and the feedlot owner must keep records where the manure is produced. Commercial applicators spreading manure onto land not owned or leased by the owner of the feedlot from which the manure is produced shall also keep a copy of the records.A copy of these records must be submitted to the owner of the animal feedlot or the manure storage area from which the manure is produced,no later than 60 days following land application.

Rather, it should be stored, w y '` "1 g handled and applied with the samecaregiventopp expensive commercial fertilizers. Applied properly, manure can yield considerable savings in fertilizer costs. If over-applied,nutrients will be wasted and water resources can be negatively impacted. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) feedlot regulations require many farms to develop and follow a manure management plan (sometimes called a nutrient management plan). A manure management plan can help all feedlots comply with application requirements near waters, and is required when applying for a permit for construction or expansion. Most feedlots with 300 animal units or more are required to have a completed manure management plan by Jan. 1, 2006. Can't get to a workshop? This guide provides "home schooling" There are numerous consultants available to write manure management plans for producers and computer programs are available from the University of Minnesota and MPCA. In addition, the University offers workshops designed to allow producers to write at least a portion of a manure management plan in a classroom setting. This guide was developed using the forms and procedures taught in University of Minnesota workshops and is designed to allow those unable to attend a workshop to develop and follow a Manure Management Plan at home by answering these four main questions: Step 1. How much manure is produced on the farm? Step 2. How many nutrients are contained in the manure? Step 3. How many nutrients are needed for a growing crop and how much should be applied? Step 4. How should manure be managed in sensitive areas and high phosphorous soils? Some sections need to be updated annually, such as the Field Nutrient Management Plan.

How much manure is produced on the farm? Completing the Master Worksheet - Manure Storage, Handling and Testing) Begin by filling out the Master Worksheet-Manure Storage,Handling and Testing worksheet. This will become the main worksheet for the plan. Notice that the vertical columns on this worksheet are labeled"Manure Source#1" and"Manure Source #2."When calculating manure and nutrient production on the farm, each barn or Master Worksheet-Manure Storage,Handling and Testing open lot should be treated as a separate manure Producer name/operator Date Em+rgotr source, unless feeding and management for Afanmx Sowte#1 Manure Source#2 Da(ryBarn iI.I,ivestadt InCermaHam ' each lot is essentially the same.

Slurry tanker I.Livestock Information Indicate the animal type, number and size. Size is defined as the average weight of the animal during the time it is in the building. For example, the size of a hog that increases from 40 pounds to 300 pounds while in the building would be the initial weight plus the final weight divided by two (300+40 =340/2)or 170 pounds. The far right column shows examples of how to enter the information. II. Manure Storage a. Storage type- Indicate the type of storage for each building or lot. Some common examples include: above ground tank, under-floor pit, earthen basin, poured concrete pit, manure pack or stockpile. b. Storage capacity- Indicate the storage capacity in tons (for dry manure) or gallons (for liquid). 1. Capacity in gallons for rectangular liquid basins can be determined by multiplying Length (in feet) x Width (in feet)x Depth (in feet)x 7.48 gal/ft3(gallons per cubic foot). 2. Capacity in gallons for round or cylinder shaped tanks or basins can be determined by multiplying the Diameter(in feet)x Diameter(in feet)x Height or Depth (in feet) x 0.785 x 7.48 gal/ft3. c. Storage time- Indicate the average length of time manure is stored in each location prior to field application.

For any type of injection, enter"immediate" on this line. 6 Step 2. How many nutrients are contained in the manure? The second step in creating a good manure management plan is determining the nutrient content of each source of manure, as well as the total amount of nutrients produced on the farm. Continue with the Master Worksheet— Manure Storage,Handling and Testing. IV. Manure Analysis a. Sampling frequency b. Sampling methods c. Date Analyzed Ideally, manure from each source should be sampled and analyzed each year for three consecutive years to develop an average nutrient analysis for each source. After the initial three years of sampling, each source should be sampled at least once every four years or whenever feeding or management changes significantly. This allows you to maintain a rolling"average analysis and helps to fine tune manure nutrient application. If you have manure nutrient sample results, they should be entered here. Sampling must be done for manure sources from 100 animal units or more. If you do not have manure sample results, refer to Table A3 Estimated nutrient content of liquid and solid manure on page 26 until an actual manure test result is available. Find the animal type for each manure source on your farm and fill in the N,P205 and K20 on the worksheet. Be sure to use the numbers under the appropriate heading"Liquid"or"Solid." V. Animal Manure/Nutrients Generated Determine the annual amount of manure produced and the annual amount of nutrients produced from each manure source. There are two methods of finding the amount of manure produced on the farm: 1. Past farm records of the annual amount of manure that was hauled from each manure source. Or, 2. Animal manure excretion estimates using the Manure and Nutrient Generation Worksheet on page 9. If you have records for the amount of manure in thousand gallon units or tons, multiply this number by the manure analysis in pounds of nutrient per 1000 gallons or tons from Section IV. See example. Example— In the far right column of the worksheet on Page 5, 450,000 gallons are produced annually and the analysis for nitrogen was 24 lbs. per thousand gallons (from Section IV) so: 450 (thousand gallons) x 24 (pounds N per 1000 gal.)=10,800 lbs. of N produced annually Repeat this procedure for P205 (phosphate) and K20 (potash) NOTE: If you do not have records or do not know the amount of manure produced on the farm, you must fill out the Manure and Nutrient Generation Worksheet that follows before you can complete Section V. 7 Instructions for completing the Manure and Nutrient Generation Worksheet Complete if you do not have records or know the amount of manure produced on the farm.

Then proceed to the top of table titled: I.Annual Estimated Manure Production from Livestock." a) Enter the animal type. This should be the same as the animal type you entered a. in Section I of the Master Worksheet. b) Enter the number of animals. Again, this should be the same number entered on the master worksheet. c) Enter the average weight of the animals over the entire time they are housed in this barn or lot. For example: The average weight of"growing and finishing" swine during the entire time they are on the faun might be 165 lbs. This number should be the same as the number entered in Section I of the Master worksheet. d) Multiply(b)x(c) or(animal number x animal size)then divide the result by 1,000. Enter this final result in column(d). e) Find Table Al on page 26 of this booklet. Find the "Animal Type"and look under the first two columns"Manure Production"to find the correct"Manure Production Factor". For example: Grow-Finish swine with liquid manure shows a Manure Production Factor of 2166. Find the correct factor for your animal type and manure type and enter it in column(e) of the worksheet. f) Multiply(d) x (e) or(Total livestock weight x Manure Production Factor) and enter the result in column(f). g) Determine the number of days the animals are in the lot or barn and divide that number by 365. For example: if the animals are in the facility for 180 days,then 180 / 365 =0.493. Enter your result in column(g). h) Enter the percent of manure(expressed as a decimal) produced by these animals that is collected. In total confinement housing,this number will generally be 1.0. For example, 75% would be expressed as 0.75. i) Multiply(g)x(h)and then multiply the result x(f).Enter the result in column(i). 8 Manure and Nutrient Generation Worksheet Date: Annual Manure and Nutrient Generation for: Manure Source or Collection Area Manure Type: Solid or Liquid I.

You cannot simply multiply the estimated amount of manure produced by the analysis of N,P and K because there will be storage losses for N. Storage losses are already accounted for when you sample and test manure before application. If samples have not been tested, you must do the calculations on this page before entering the final numbers on the Master Worksheet. Refer to the bottom half of the worksheet titled "II.Annual Estimated Nutrients Excreted by Livestock" a) Enter the animal type exactly as you did in the top half of this worksheet. b) Enter the total livestock weight in thousands of pounds. For example, if the total weight is 70,000 pounds, enter"70."The total livestock weight is found by multiplying the "animal number"(b)by"animal size"(c) from the top half of this worksheet. c) , (d) and(e). Turn to Table Al (page 26)and look at the last three columns under the heading"Excreted Nutrients in Manure per 1,000 lbs. of Animal Weight." Find the Nutrient Production Factor for each nutrient(N,P205 and K20)that corresponds to the correct animal type. For example: the factors for a dairy milk cow would be 263, 135 and 146 for N,P205 and K20, respectively. Enter the correct numbers for each animal type on the worksheet. f) Return to the tables on page 26 and find Table A2, "Nitrogen losses from animal manure as affected by method of storage."Find the manure storage and handling method employed on your farm for each manure source. Be sure to distinguish between"liquid" and"solid." The number on the far right of this table represents the percentage of Nitrogen that is lost during storage. For example, in a"Daily scrape and Haul" management system, 25 percent of the nitrogen will be lost before it is applied. If you subtract 25 percent from 1,the remainder will be 0.75. Subtract the storage loss of your storage and handling method from"1" and enter it in column(f) of the worksheet. g) If animals are kept in a barn, lot or facility for less than a full year, divide the number of days they are in the facility by 365 and enter this factor in column(g). If animals are in the facility the entire year, enter a"1" in column(g). h)Multiply(b) x(c)x(f) ( g)=lbs. N. In our example we had 70 (thousand pounds) x 263 (N production factor for dairy cows)x 0.75 ( remaining N in storage system after storage loss)x(g) [time in facility factor] = 13,807 lbs. of N produced by our dairy cows. Do the calculations using your numbers. i) Andy(j)For P205 and K20, multiply(b)x(d)x( g)=lbs. of P205. or(b)x(e)(g)for K20 Do riot multiply by the storage loss %. Storage loss is only used when calculating Nitrogen. Once you have calculated the"Annual Excreted Nutrients"for each type of animal, add up the numbers and fill them in at the bottom of the worksheet. Now return to the Master Worksheet— Manure Storage,Handling and Testing and also enter these numbers in the final spaces in Section V, "Annual amounts of N,P205 and K20." 11 Step 3. How many nutrients are needed for a growing crop? Completing the Field Nutrient Management Plan) The next step is to start planning manure applications to specific field and crop situations. Before you start the planning process, you will need to gather basic field information such as field size and location, sensitive features, past soil testing, and crop information. You will need to gather aerial photos and/or field maps for all fields that could receive manure from your livestock operation. On these maps or photos, each field should be identified and outlined. Show anysensitive features (ditches,tiles, lakes, streams, wetlands etc.), for each field and the planned setbacks from those features. Refer to the MPCA publication"Applying Manure in Sensitive Areas" for complete information on how to identify sensitive areas. This publication is available on the Web at: http://www.pca.state.mn.us/publications/feedlots-manureapplication._pdf The next step is completing a Field Nutrient Management Plan for each field that may receive manure. Two copies of this form are provided on the following pages. Before filling out the form(s), make numerous copies so you will have one for each field as well as extras for yearly plan updates. At the top of the form, fill in the individual field information. Be sure to include any sensitive features. a) Fill in the most recent soil test information for this specific field. In order to get the most benefit from manure nutrients, it is vital to perform regular soil testing. If you do not know the Soil Name/Map Unit, you can obtain this from your local SWCD.

Find the type of animal you raise and follow the Year 1 line across the table. These numbers are the percentage of nitrogen available for crop use based on different manure application methods. Copy these numbers for your animal type into column(e) of this form. Remember that the numbers in the table are expressed as a percentage so you need to put a decimal point in front of them when copying into column(e). For example if the number in Table A4 is 25, write it in column(e) as 0.25. Note: The percentages listed in Table A4 are usedfor nitrogen only. Ifyou base your manure application rate on Phosphorus, always use 0.80 as the first year available percentage and would therefore enter 0.80 behind all application methods in column e). f) Multiply the nitrogen content in your manure(b) by each of the decimal percentages in column(e)and enter them in column(f). g) Divide the crop nutrient needs (c)by the results recorded in column(f) and record the results in column(g). Column(g) represents the amount of manure in"tons" or"1000 gallons" you would need to apply to fully meet the crop nutrient needs in the first year. III. First- and Second-Year Nutrient Availability to Crops a) Fill in the nutrient analysis of your manure from section IV of the Master Worksheet. b) Enter the manure application rate in tons or thousand gallons. This can be an application rate chosen after completing section II of this worksheet or a calibrated rate at which you normally apply manure. c) Multiply(a)x(b)under each of the nutrients. This is the total pounds of each nutrient you will apply before calculating first year availability. First and Second Year Availability—Multiply the first-year availability percentage expressed as a decimal)x the Total Nutrients Applied(c). Notice that the percentage availability for P2O5 and K2O are set at 0.80 and 0.90 respectively, regardless of application method or animal type. For nitrogen,refer to Table A4(page 27)to find the appropriate first and second year availability percentage for your application method. The calculated pounds per acre first-year and second-year available nutrients are used when planning manure applications to individual field and crop situations.

If the nutrients from manure are higher than the Net Nutrients Needed, then you may be over applying at your planned application rate and you may need to reduce the manure application rate. If this field has a high phosphorus soil test,you should plan a long-term strategy of how often manure can be applied so that soil test levels do not continue to increase. Refer to Part 14 on page 23. i) Record any planned fertilizer applications such as starter fertilizers or supplemental broadcast fertilizer needed to complete the crop needs. Enter the fertilizer type under fertilizer form" and fill in the timing, method, rate/acre and actual pounds of each nutrient. j) Add the Nutrients from Planned Manure Applications (g) and Planned Fertilizer Applications(i)and enter the result here. These are the total nutrients to be applied to this field in the planning year. At the bottom of the page, record any sensitive area management and complete the form on p. 24. Remember,you must fill out one of these Field Nutrient Management Plan forms for each field on the farm. This form is a vital part of your overall Manure Management Plan that should be updated each year to help you manage manure nutrient application on your farm. An additional copy of the Field Nutrient Management Plan form is provided on page 29. Use this copy to make photocopies. 18 Step 4. How Will I Manage Manure in Sensitive Areas and High Phosphorus Soils? If you apply manure in sensitive areas, you are required to include sensitive area management in your overall manure management plan before it will be considered complete. Instructions: Step 1. Fields— In the middle of the top row of Sensitive Area Management Table on page 20, list the field name or identification number(for all fields to receive manure). If more than nine fields are used, photocopy this form and complete for remaining fields. Make sure that the field acreage and location information for these same field names is listed in the manure management plan. Step 2. Sensitive Areas—For each field listed on Sensitive Area Management Table, check all of the sensitive features that are in the field or adjacent to the field. For surface waters, check the box if the water type is within 300 feet of areas receiving manure. For floodplains, only check if manure is to be applied within a floodplain that is more than 300 feet from the water. A "public well management area"can be identified by asking city water managers check if the fields are within about a mile of a community water supply well). Whenever one or more fields has a sensitive feature, look at the right hand column to find out which part of the following pages("Sensitive Areas parts 1-14")needs to be completed. For example if a field has an open tile intake,then complete part 4 in sensitive areas (identify the setback option to be used for each field with an open tile intake). If no tile intakes are found in any field, then part 4 of Sensitive Areas does not need to be completed. Step 3. Soil Test Phosphorus—For each field listed on Sensitive Area Management Table, check either a, b, c, or d, based on the field average soil phosphorus test levels. Only one of the four boxes should be checked.

This also includes side inlets through berms along drainage ditches. Drainage ditch—edge of field drainage ditches(typically shown on U.S.Geological Survey quadrangle maps), excluding ditches that have berms sufficiently high to prevent runoff into the ditch. Lakes,River or Stream—Lakes can be generally considered as bodies of waters over 25 acres. Rivers or streams flow continuously. Intermittent streams—Streams which do not flow all year. They can flow continuously for long or short periods of time,and when a storm or major snowmelt occurs. They are denoted by dashed lines on U.S. Geological Survey Topographic maps. Wetlands over 10 acres(public waters wetlands)—DNR protected wetlands,which are typically over 10 acres in rural areas. Wetlands under 10 acres(non-farmed wetlands)—Wetlands under 10 acres,excluding wetlands that are used for agricultural purposes. Floodplains—Land that regularly floods during the spring or during large storms. Public well management area—Drinking water supply management areas delineated in accordance with Minnesota Health Department rules,where the aquifer/well is considered vulnerable. The well owner/manager should know whether the land is in such an area. Shallow bedrock—Areas with bedrock less than 36 inches below the soil surface as identified in the soil survey, field checks,or NRCS evaluations. Sinkhole—A surface depression caused by a collapse of soil or overlying formation above a fractured or cavernous bedrock. Well,Mine or Quarry—Active wells,inactive unsealed wells,or any human excavations to remove stone,gravel, sand,iron,or other minerals. Other conduits to waters—This category can include road ditches,especially those which are mapped as intermittent streams,or other pipes or channels that lead directly to waters of the state. 24 r€i Field Nutrient Management Plan Crop Year Farm Name/Tract#Field Field Location Acres Sensitive Features Soil Test Information Date Tested a) NO3N P K Percent pH Soil Name/Map Unit: ibs/acre ppm ppm Organic Matter Soil Texture: Crop Nutrient Recommendation Planned Crop Yield Goal Source of UMN Nitrogen Recommendation Previous Crop Quality/Yield 0 UMN Nitrogen Tables 0 Western MN Soil Nitrate Test Pounds Per Acre N P205 K20 UM Broadcast Nutrient Recommendation b) First-year legume nitrogen credits are already accounted for on line(b) Other Nitrogen Credits c) Second-Year Legume Nitrogen Credit Crop/Quality d) Second-Year Manure Nitrogen Credit e) Nitrogen Credit Based on Earl-Spring Soil Nitrate Test f) Net Nutrients Needed g) Planned Manure Applications Manure Source Timing Method Rate/acre N P20s K20 h) Supplemental Nutrient Nees i) Planned Fertilizer Application gototitor form Timing Mothod Ratetacre . ;N P205 K20 j) Total Nutrients to be Apped in Planning Year 44 Sensitive Area Management (see page 19) 29 Aerial Photos Attach aerial photos here 30 An NPDES, State Disposal System(SDS), interim or construction short form permit application is submitted from an operation with 100 or more animal units,or No permit is required,but manure from a feedlot capable of holding 300 or more animal units will be applied by someone other than a certified commercial animal-waste technician or certified private manure applicator. Table 4 further describes when a manure management plan is required. Once a manure management plan is required for a facility, an updated plan must be retained on file at the animal feedlot or manure storage facility and reviewed at least once a year. Plans must be modified to include changes in cropping rotations, manure amounts,manure nutrient levels, fields for application,or other practices that affect the available nutrient amounts or crop nutrient needs.

Note: For more information on certification programs for commercial or applicators, please contact the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. At feedlots with 300 or more animal units, an interim permit and associated manure management plan is required where a) manure is to be applied on steeply sloping soils(> six percent)in special protection areas; b)manure is to be applied in drinking water supply management areas where the aquifer is vulnerable; c) manure is to be applied onto land with phosphorus levels exceeding 150 ppm Bray P1 or 120 ppm Olsen outside of special protection areas or half these levels within special protection areas; or d)a pollution hazard exists at the feedlot. When ownership of manure is transferred from NDPES site, a manure management plan is partially completed by the facility where the manure is produced(general information)and partially completed by the manager of the fields where the manure is applied(field specific information), unless the site has a complete manure management plan. The manager of the cropland where the manure is applied must comply with all state feedlot rule requirements related to nutrient rates, setbacks and soil testing. Required parts of a plan: The specific items required in a manure management plan are listed in Minn. R. 7020.2225, subp. 4 and the MPCA publication"Manure Management Plan Requirements." The types of required information include: manure storage and application methods field locations and acreage amount of manure to be applied to each field manure-nutrient content soil-nutrient content crop-nutrient needs and/or expected nutrient removal protective measures when applying in environmentally sensitive areas protective measures when applying during winter months Land Application of Manure: Minimum State Requirements • wq- f8-11 • February 2011 Minnesota Pollution Page 5 ControfAAggency 8:02 1 elri.,TE ili_- i' ell ' no _ 7 , si..W I•W ma • O.'.

Owners meet feedlot registration requirements by providing basic information to the MPCA. Owners who have applied for a permit are automatically registered.Feedlot owners are required to update their registration information within a four-year cycle. Registration information includes location,type of operation,and number of livestock including poultry.The next deadline for maintaining a current registration of Minnesota's estimated 15,000 feedlots is December 31, 2025.How to register To register your feedlot,you must use the online feedlot registration service available at linty; //wektdup. ca.state.riiit.trb/Setvi es/ogttt.You will need internet access and an email account to use this service and register your feedlot.The service can be accessed via computer,tablet,or smart phone. No paper forms are available to complete your feedlot registration.Some counties delegated to administer the feedlot program, may assist with feedlot registration by collecting information on a paper form and then entering that information into the online service for feedlot owners.Who must register Animal type AU A feedlot is required to register based upon its number of Dairy cow over 1,000 lbs 1.4 animal units.Animal units(AU)are calculated by multiplying Dairy cow under 1,000 lbs 1.0 the number of animals by the AU factors listed in the table to Dairy heifer 0.7 the right( e.g. 50 dairy calves x 0.2= 10 AU).Dairy calf 0.2 Owners of the following operations must register: Beef steer or stock cow 1.0 All feedlots with 50 or more AU. Beef heifer or backgrounding 0.7 Feedlots located in shoreland with 10 or more AU. Beef cow calf pair 1.2 Shoreland, in most instances, refers to land that is 1,000 feet Beef calf 0.2 or less from a lake or 300 feet or less from a river or stream. Swine over 300 lbs 0.4 In rare instances, land near large ponds,wetlands, or ditches Swine 55-300 lbs 0.3 is classified as shoreland. Swine under 55 lbs 0.05 Owners who have closed their feedlots since their last Horse 1.0 registration should use the online system to record the Sheep or lamb 0.1 closure.The MPCA defines a closed feedlot as one that has Chicken(liquid manure system) 0.033 not had animals for the past five years.Chicken over 5 lbs(dry manure) 0.005 Feedlots with a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Chicken under 5 lbs(dry manure) 0.003 System (NDPES)or State Disposal System ( SDS)operating permit were registered at the time of permit issuance.A Turkey over 5 lbs 0.018 separate registration is not necessary.

Over the past 20+years,the MPCA has developed a list of 44 different common animal types that produce agricultural commodities and has included this list in the online registration service. Only animals that are within the current MPCA list of animals are eligible for registration. Here are examples of animal types that should not be registered: Dogs/dog kennels Cats/cat breeders Exotic/zoo animals Rodents Fish or shrimp Other domestic animals(parakeets,cockatoos, reptiles,goldfish,etc.) Questions regarding registration of a specific animal type should be directed to MPCA feedlot staff. Feedlot staff contact information is available at:https•//www.pca.state.mn.us/sites default/files/we-f1-11.0f Pastures Livestock operations that are only pastures do not need to be registered.The definition of pastures in Minn. R. 7020 states that pastures are areas where grass or other growing plants are used for grazing,and where the concentration of animals is such that a vegetation cover is maintained during the growing season, except in the immediate vicinity of temporary supplemental feeding or watering devices. A typical example of a pasture operation exempted from registration is a cow-calf operation that houses no animals in buildings or lots, but has winter feeding and sheltering areas within the pasture.The owners of these facilities pasture their livestock during the growing season and provide supplemental feed for them at various locations in the pasture during the winter months. (See factsheet: KiV1dnan Livestock Feedink-on Pasture and Crop Residue"). Failure to register Failure to register a feedlot that is required to register and/or failure to re-register a feedlot that is required to register is a violation of feedlot rules. Why registration Registration data allows the MPCA to identify feedlots according to active or inactive sites,and number of animals at the site and location.This information helps to prioritize those operations with the greatest pollution risk and to work with owners if a pollution hazard is present. Registration data is also important to MPCA planners and the legislature who need to plan for funding needs to assist producers with technical assistance, cost share,and other financial assistance.
