IPE Nutrient Management Plan Workshop For Poultry Growers, Environmental Managers And Field Service Representatives.
Industry and the regulatory community are still at odds over how the new CAFO rules address National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting requirements. On Thursday, January 28th in Room A-407 during IPE, Dave McGuigan and Chris Thomas of the EPA will provide an overview of the on-farm inspection process to help industry understand what the EPA is looking for during an inspection. Steve Schwalb of Perdue Farms will present Perdue’s newly implemented program to assist poultry producers with self evaluations and how to implement best management practices programs. Dr. Phil Hess from Purdue University will discuss a new internet tool to prepare Nutrient Management Plans and representatives from the USDA natural Resources Conservation Service will discuss on farm conservation practices. Plan to attend this informative program. Attendance is free with your registration to IPE.
