    1. Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plans (CNMPs) Fred Kelly USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service

    2. CNMPs Required by USDA - EPA Unified Animal Feeding Operation (AFO) Policy 1999 In concert with NRCS Nutrient Management Policy effective May, 2001 For operations that collect, store, and spread animal waste

    3. CNMP Basic Elements 1. Waste handling and storage 2. Nutrient management 3. Land treatment practices 4. Feed management 5. Other utilization activities 6. Recordkeeping 7. Emergency management

    4. Manure Storage and Handling Animal types, numbers, waste amounts generated Storage type and size Yard management Distribution mechanism Operation and maintenance

    5. Nutrient Management Nutrient content of waste: analysis or book values Soil test results Crop rotation and nutrient needs Available land: spreading rate Additional fertility:application rate Phosphorous and Leaching Index

    6. Phosphorous Index Designed to estimate risk of phosphorous runoff to surface waters Weighted ranking using: 1. Soil erosion 2. Runoff class (soil and slope) 3. Soil test P 4. Distance to surface waters 5. Method of P application Result helps planner advise on whether the nutrient mgt. plan is based on nitrogen or phosphorous

    7. Leaching Index Designed to estimate risk of nitrogen leaching below the root zone to ground water. Uses: 1. Nitrogen application method and timing 2. Soil texture 3. General temperature and rainfall data Result helps planner advise on basic practices to reduce risk of N leaching

    8. Land Treatment Practices The field conservation practices to be installed and maintained to protect water quality. Contained in the attached conservation plan and schedule Typical: crop rotation, crop residue management, filter strip, terrace

    9. Feed Management Addresses feed and how rations impact nutrient content of waste Goal: reduce phosphorous feed content and feed waste Handled by Extension or consultant

    10. Other Utilization Activities Uses for waste outside of farm operation, or for purposes other than soil fertility Distribution to other properties Processing and marketing Energy generation

    11. Recordkeeping Required for the producer Document the waste distribution variables: Tract, field, date, weather, amount, crop, yield, soil test, manure test, other fertilizer

    12. Emergency Response Contact information for local emergency and health officials- in case of a spill or release of waste Action plan to contain and clean up spills Safety
