TSP CNMP Teleconference December 12, 2006 Shannon Zezula Mike Cox Beth Clarizia Tony Bailey N K P
Today’s Topics • CNMP TechReg certification & categories • CNMP Checklists • IDEM Update • Runoff pictures (discussion) • Nutrient Management Planning issues • Quality Assurance • Questions & Answer Session
TSP Certification & Categories • Indiana NRCS TSP Website http://www.in.nrcs.usda.gov/tsp.html • Technical Service Provider (TSP) Categories • CNMP Plan Development – Feed Mgmt • CNMP Plan Development – Manure & Wastewater Handling & Storage (MWHS) • CNMP Plan Development – Nutrient Management • CNMP Plan Development – Land Treatment • CNMP Plan Development – Total Plan • CNMP Plan Approval • Certification & renewals
Why would a producer prepare a CNMP? • Good Question??? • Required for EQIP cost share on: - Waste Storage Facility (313) - Waste Treatment Lagoon (359) • EQIP CNMP Incentive • ’07 EQIP Emergency and CNMPs • Required on EPA 319 c/s for non-CAFO • EPA CAFO Rule (anticipated workload)
So, What’s a CNMP? • Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) • A detailed plan to identify & address all of the environmental risks associated with a livestock operation (180 NPPH Part 600.5) • 6 elements • manure & wastewater handling & storage* • land treatment practices* • nutrient management* • record keeping*(producer) • feed management • other utilization options • CNMP Data Collection Checklist (revised 12/19/05)
Review & Discuss “CNMP Data Collection Checklist” with a title of“CNMP Guidance for Minimum Requirements” document (revised 12/19/05)
Acre & Animal Unit Issues • Animal Units • All animal species on the operation • Acres • CNMP covers all land under control of the operator (owned land at that operation and land under lease/rent) • At the minimum, CNMP covers acres in the EQIP contract
CNMPManure & Wastewater Handling & StoragePlan Development • Review • “CNMP Manure & Wastewater Handling & Storage Inspection Checklist” (new 5/1/06)
CNMP Signature Requirements for EQIP Payment- Who can sign what?? • Review • “Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan (CNMP) Review Checklist” • (revised 3/13/06)
IDEM Enforcement Cases - 2004 Causes • Runoff (feed lots, storage, silage) – 6 • Storage Pits (overflow, pipes, caps) – 8 • Land Application – 7 2/21 resulted in fish kills (both were land application)
IDEM Update • CFO Rule Update • revision • CAFO Update • # of CAFOs • Revision of due dates • NMP/CNMP = SCPP + CAFO NMP • Erosion to “T” • Leaching • Runoff • Ag Liaison
CAFO Requirements that Differ from CFO Requirements • Soil Conservation Practice Plan (SCPP) written & implemented for land owned or controlled by the CAFO owner/ operator by July 31, 2007. • Comply with NRCS Nutrient Management Standard 590 by July 31, 2007. • Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP or SWP3) for production area • Annual manure analysis and soil testing every three years • Frozen ground land application prohibited unless in accordance with Soil Conservation Practice Plan
IDEM Contacts: • Dennis Lasiter, Office of Land Quality • dlasiter@dem.state.in.us • (317) 232-8732 • 1-800-233-6647 ext 2-8732 • _____?_____, Agricultural Liaison • (317) 232-8587 • 1-800-451-6027 ext 2-8587
Nutrient Management & Land TreatmentN & P Application Rates for Indiana The 590 & the Environmental Component
Chart B. Organic Nutrient Application Guidelines Based on Soil Test Phosphorus
Additional BMPs • Water quality protection - Setback requirements - No applications on saturated ground - Monitor weather forecast (24 hrs. prior) - Application to frozen/snow covered land - Application site potential to flooding - Do not exceed infiltration rate, minimize ponding & avoid runoff - Field tile outlet monitoring
Additional NM/LT Stuff • Winter spreading • 633 = Wastes shall not be applied to frozen or snow covered fields when the risk for runoff exists from field edge or to tile riser • CFO = surface applications on >2% must have adequate residue or a crop • CAFO = if part of the SCPP • Setbacks • 633 & CFO/CAFO
Realistic yield Quantify sources - soil nutrient - legume credits - organic sources - commercial fertilizer Manure analysis Manure applications - (PAN) NTE planned crop N needs - STP (Chart B) Environmental evaluation (Chart A / ORI) - may impact app rates - address H/VH concerns Additional environmental requirements - setbacks - frequently flooded soils - HEL/frozen soils Actual application rate within 20% of planned 590 Standard - Summary
Quality Assurance (QA) • Procedure for FY07 • Previous issues
Additional Issues – past & future • M&W H&S P.E. (resolved 5/06) • Site investigation (resolved ___?) • Continuing Education • TSP NTE Rates • CNMP Implementation/follow-up • Meeting regulatory requirements • Submission of CNMP to ____?
