Ag Waste

Regulatory Analysis

Agricultural waste management focuses primarily on the impacts of animal feeding operations (AFO) on the nation's surface water and groundwater resources. Animal waste can enter water bodies from spills or breaks of waste storage structures and improper application of manure to crop lands. Many states are adopting regulations that require stricter monitoring and control of ag waste to protect water quality. In addition, many states require permits for land application procedures.
