The new rule prohibits Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality from issuing new permits to operations confining more than 750 swine weighing over 55 pounds, or 3,000 swine weighing less than 55 pounds. The Arkansas Pollution Control and Ecology Commission in Little Rock on Friday barred any new permits for big swine factory farms on the Buffalo National River Watershed over the next five years.
