John Lentz, NRCS Resource Conservationist
Current SD CNMP Electronic Workbook
Format
1. Manure Handling and Storage
2. Land Treatment Practices
3. Nutrient Management
4. Record Keeping
5. Feed Management
6. Other Options
New Required National CNMP Template
Cover and Signature Page 1. Background and Site Info 2. Manure & Wastewater Handling and Storage 3. Farmstead Safety and Security 4. Land Treatment Practices 5. Soil and Risk Assessment Analyses 6. Nutrient Management 7. Feed Management (Optional) 8. Other Options (Optional) 9. Record Keeping 10. References
Why the Change?
• Disparity between states in the level of CNMP development and implementation. New guidance is meant to bring more consistency by requiring standardized CNMP Template.
• Attempts to meet the EPA Clean Water Act and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) criteria.

1. Use Purdue Manure Management Planner (MMP), this is the national supported NRCS software.
2. Use SD Electronic CNMP Workbook
3. Use your own but must include all elements and items within each element.

What’s the Plan in SD?
• Release new SD CNMP electronic workbook for official use in SD on October 1, 2012. Until then continue using current CNMP workbook or use Purdue Manure Management Planner (MMP).
• If you need a new workbook contact me at [email protected]
New 590 Standard • National 590 (Nutrient Management)
standard has been released. SD will be working on our 590 this spring/summer and plans to release officially on or before October 1, 2012.

Need to consider use of grass buffers more when doing initial planning!
Application of Manure on Frozen or Snow Covered Ground Continues to
Be an Issue!
Encourage Use of Cover Crops (Prevent Nutrient Loss, Improve Soil
Quality, Provide Forage!!!)
Educate Producers On Value of Manure
Keep Thinking Outside the Box
