If you have a manure storage that had a permit on 05/18/1999 and after, you are required to have and implement a Nutrient Management Plan (call us for assistance and for cost-share funds). As a reminder, all Nutrient Management Plans are due April 1st of each year. NMP's received after April 1 may be subject to a citation.
We have cost-share funds available for these and other practices:
-
Well decommissioning (water wells not being used must be properly closed per DNR regulations)
-
Waste storage closures

Stream Crossings
