DEQ Announces CAFO Permit Change to Protect Michigan Surface Waters

2015-06-15 17:47:15| Waste Management - Topix.net

On May 4, 2015, Michigan's Department of Environmental Quality announced a change to its Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations discharge permits in an effort to better protect the environment and Michigan's surface waters from agricultural runoff. The change in permits now forbids CAFOs to transfer farm waste to other operations between January and March unless the recipient of waste also follows the winter spreading technical standard.
