NR 120.14(21)(c)(c) Standards. Standards from the NRCS field office technical guide are as follows: NR 120.14(22)(a)(a) Description. Well abandonment is the proper filling and sealing of a well to prevent it from acting as a channel for contaminants to reach the groundwater or as a channel for the vertical movement of surface water to groundwater. This practice shall be implemented using one or more of the standards in par. (c). NR 120.14(22)(b)1.a.a. The removal of the pump, pump piping, debris or other obstacles that interfere with the proper sealing of the well. NR 120.14(22)(b)1.b.b. The sand-cement grout, sodium bentonite, clay slurry, chipped bentonite or concrete used for the well sealing. NR 120.14(22)(b)2.a.a. The abandonment of wells at an oil or gas drilling site or wells that produced gas or oil. NR 120.14(22)(b)2.c.c. The abandonment of mine shafts, drill holes or air vents associated with the mining industry. NR 120.14(22)(c)1.1. NRCS field office technical standard 351 — Well Decommissioning; April, 1999. NR 120.14(23)(a)(a) Description. A manure storage facility is a structure which stores manure from operations where manure is generated or from operations where the location and site characteristics of manure spreading areas result in a high potential for runoff to carry pollutants to lakes, streams and groundwater during periods of frozen or saturated conditions. The facility shall be necessary to accommodate proper land application of manure in accordance with a nutrient management plan. This practice shall be implemented using one or more of the standards in par. (c). NR 120.14(23)(b)2.a.a. The locations and site characteristics of areas where manure is spread have high potentials to carry runoff to lakes and streams and the facilities are necessary to accommodate proper land application of the manure in accordance with the nutrient management plan. NR 120.14(23)(b)2.b.b. The existing storage or spreading of manure has a high potential for contaminating groundwater as specified in the approved priority watershed plan, priority lake plan or project grant application. NR 120.14(23)(b)3.a.a. Aerobic or anaerobic basins, liquid manure tanks and solid manure stacking facilities, piping and other stationary equipment necessary for conveying manure to the storage facility required as part of a nutrient management plan. NR 120.14(23)(b)3.b.b. Storage capacities of no less than 30 days and no more than 365 day manure generation. NR 120.14(23)(b)3.d.d. The repair, modification or abandonment of existing manure storage facilities needed to meet water quality objectives including well abandonment required under ch. NR 812. NR 120.14(23)(b)4.a.a. Manure can be spread at acceptable rates on locations which are nearly flat and represent a minimal risk to surface water and groundwater or which do not drain to surface waters. NR 120.14(23)(b)4.b.b. The landowner intentionally aggravated conditions in order to qualify for cost-sharing. NR 120.14(23)(b)5.d.d. Additional costs associated with the construction of a manure storage facility incurred for the purpose of providing structural support for a building or other structure located over or attached to the facility. NR 120.14(23)(b)7.7. Manure stored in the storage facility shall be land applied in accordance with the operation’s nutrient management plan. Manure stored in facilities designed to be emptied annually or semi-annually may not be applied on frozen or saturated ground and shall be incorporated within 3 days after application. NR 120.14(23)(b)8.8. Basins shall be constructed to assure sealing of the bottom and sides to prevent contamination of wells and groundwater. NR 120.14(23)(b)9.9. The project sponsor prior to the payment of cost-share funds shall certify compliance with the manure management prohibitions in s. NR 151.08. NR 120.14(24)(a)(a) Description. Manure storage system abandonment is the permanent disabling and proper abandonment of leaking and improperly sited manure storage systems including a system with bottom at or below groundwater level; a system whose pit fills with groundwater; a system whose pit leaks into the bedrock; a system which has documented reports of discharging manure into surface water or groundwater due to structural failure; or a system with evidence of existing structural failure or evidence of imminent structural failure that will likely result in resource degradation. This practice shall be implemented using one or more of the standards in par. (c). NR 120.14(24)(b)1.1. Cost-sharing may be provided for the following practices to protect water resources from contamination by manure: NR 120.14(24)(b)1.e.e. Filling, shaping to insure surface drainage away from site, and seeding of area. NR 120.14(24)(b)2.2. Cost-sharing may not be provided for removal and spreading of manure that can be removed using conventional equipment and routine agricultural practices. NR 120.14(25)(a)(a) Description. A milking center waste control system is a piece of equipment, practice or combination of practices installed in a milking center for purposes of reducing the quantity or pollution potential of the wastes. This practice shall be implemented using one or more of the standards in par. (c).
