The bill requires that any
person seeking to establish a new Concentrated Animal Feeding Facility (CAFF)
or seeking to increase the design capacity of any existing Concentrated Animal
Feeding Facility provide written notification to the county commissioners or
township trustees where the facility is, or will be located. This written notification must be by
certified mail, and include the following: the anticipated travel routes of
motor vehicles to and from the facility and the anticipated number and weights
of those vehicles.
The notification and
subsequent agreements between the CAFF owner and the county or township may
include an explanation of the needed public infrastructure improvements. However, this bill does not affect the terms
of these agreements. It merely expands
the types of CAFFs that must notify from "major" facilities to all
types. The bill requires no direct
action on the part of any political subdivisions, and therefore has no direct
fiscal effect.
