1 NM1306 North Dakota CAFO Operators Record Book Reviewed by Mary Berg, Area Extension Specialist Livestock Environmental Management North Dakota State University Fargo, North Dakota Reviewed and reprinted August 2016
2 Contents Inspection Records (CAFO) Monthly Weather Conditions (AFO/CAFO) Manure Source Details (AFO/CAFO) Manure Application Log (AFO/CAFO) Nutrient Application Log (AFO/CAFO) Manure Transfer Log (CAFO) Discharge Report for Production Area (CAFO) North Dakota Department of Health contacts Nutrient Management Information
3 The North Dakota Department of Health established new guidelines for animal feeding operations (AFOs) and concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) in January These guidelines were developed in accordance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency s Clean Water Act regulations for CAFOs. The new guidelines include recordkeeping requirements that CAFO operators must retain on site. This record book is designed to assist CAFO operators with the records they need to keep in accordance with the EPA s CAFO regulations. CAFO records must be kept for 5 years and AFO records for 3 years. Besides this record book, CAFO owner/operators need to keep a current copy of their nutrient management plan with soil and manure sample information, as well as a mortality management plan and their runoff containment system design, as part of their on-site records package. This record book is a companion to the EPA Producers Compliance Guide for CAFOs (EPA 821-R ). By using this record book, North Dakota CAFO operators will meet the recordkeeping requirements of the North Dakota guidelines for AFOs and CAFOs that are not included in a nutrient management or mortality plan. 3
