| Abstract | Long Description |
On April 1, 1998 Governor Gary Locke signed into law the 1998 Dairy Nutrient Management Act (Chapter 90.64 RCW) passed by the 1998 Washington State Legislature. This Act significantly changes how water pollution related to some dairy farms will be addressed. The law established a technical assistance and inspection program for dairy farms to lead to water quality compliance. The program addresses the discharge of pollutants to surface and ground waters of the state. This report is provided pursuant to RCW 90.64.800. This report has been prepared with input from the Conservation Commission and the Dairy Nutrient Management Program Advisory and Oversight Committee. It will be supplemented in February1999 with more detailed information regarding inspections when the first quarterly report on the inspection program becomes available and is also provided to the Advisory and Oversight Committee. |
