HB 1207 Poultry waste management in Chesapeake Bay watershed.
Introduced by: W. Tayloe Murphy, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Poultry waste management. Requires the State Water Control Board to establish a regulatory program for poultry waste management. The program will require that growers with more than 200 animal units of poultry (about 20,000 chickens) obtain coverage under a general permit and have and implement nutrient management plans. The plans will limit poultry litter land application rates based on crop nutrient needs and crop nutrient uptake. The bill also requires commercial poultry processors to file plans with the Department of Environmental Quality detailing the ways in which they will provide assistance to the poultry growers with whom they contract to ensure that poultry waste is properly stored and managed and transported to areas where it can be used.
