CONFINED ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS -- Adds to existing law to provide for the Confined Animal Feeding Operations Improvement Fund and Committee.

CONFINED ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The existing Agricultural Best Management Practices (BMP) Fund, I.C. 39-3628A, supports investments in farm and ranch projects that improve water quality standards in impaired water bodies in Idaho. Confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are not eligible for these projects because CAFOs do not directly discharge to water bodies. The purpose of this legislation is to make a fund available to support investments in environmental projects on CAFOs to improve livestock byproduct, waste, nutrient and water management, its land application and storage systems.
