 10.  Freeboard- The permittee shall maintain a minimum of 2 feet freeboard at the liquid manure storage structures at all times.

 11.  Manure Exportation Report- If the permittee exports manure, then the permittee shall complete the Manure Exportation Report form and submitted it to the Department with the CAFO Quarterly Self-Inspection Report.

 12. Winter Spreading- The permittee shall not spread manure during the Winter, as defined in 25 Pa. Code Section § 83.201, unless otherwise authorized in the permittee's Nutrient Management Plan, or unless the permittee has fully complied with 25 Pa. Code Section § 83.372, and has obtained a plan amendment due to unforeseen circumstances. Winter is defined as, ''December 15 to February 28, or any time the ground is frozen at least 4 inches deep or is snow covered.'' If winter spreading is approved in the NMP all setbacks must be followed: There shall be no winter application within, 1) 100 ft. of an above ground agricultural drain inlet where surface flow is toward the inlet, 2) 100 foot of a wetland on the NWI map which is within the 100 year floodplain of an EV stream segment if surface flow is toward the wetland and 3) fields must have 25% cover or an established cover crop—see § 83.294.
