NEW – There is a statewide Emergency Snow-Covered Ground Agricultural Waste Spreading Exemption.
To utilize the exemption, your farm must read and follow the requirements of the exemption to ensure any manure or agricultural waste spreading activities comply with the requirements of the exemption as well as the RAPs.
This emergency exemption will expire on December 15, 2019.
This Emergency Snow-Covered Ground Agricultural Waste Spreading Exemption does not exempt your farm from complying with any other laws or regulations. The Agency of Agriculture, Food & Markets will be conducting field investigations across the state to ensure farms are complying with this emergency exemption. Records of all manure or agricultural waste applications must be kept by your farm and be made available for inspection by the Agency.
Please do not hesitate to call the numbers at the bottom of the exemption with any questions.
