Unified National Strategy for Animal Feeding Operations

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are seeking comments on the draft Unified National Strategy for Animal Feeding Operations. USDA and EPA are asking for comments from individuals, the livestock industry, State, Tribal, and local governments or subgroups thereof, universities, colleges, environmental groups, and other organizations. These comments will assist USDA and EPA in the development and implementation of a final strategy to reduce environmental risks associated with animal feeding operations (AFOs). The draft strategy was developed as part of the Clean Water Action Plan, which was announced by President Clinton and Vice President Gore in February 1998.
