CAFO Permit Seminars Beginning

With the new CAFO permitting rules becoming effective March 4^th, the Washington State Dairy Federation is hosting seminars on what producers need to know.

The meetings will cover who needs to get a permit, a comparison of the different permits, and other important details producers need to know.

Meetings will run about two hours and food will be provided. The next meeting is Valentine’s Day in Enumclaw. There will be meetings in Deer Park and Othello on the 23^rd.

Registration is not required, but you are asked to let WSDF know if you're coming so they can get a head count for food.
