The SCPF just received information on CLEANEast Grant Program, which owners and operators of poultry operations are eligible to apply to receive an environmental assessment, new NMP and/or an update of their current NMP completely free of charge.Agri-Waste Technology, Inc. (AWT) is the technical component of this grant in which, AWT would schedule and complete the site visit and then develop/update the NMP and send it directly to the grower.
Just a little overview of the process: Once the application is submitted, it takes about 3 weeks for the review committee to determine whether or not the farm is accepted into the program. At that point, they would contact AWT and AWT would contact the grower directly to schedule the site visit at a convenient time/date that fits their needs. AWT would then send them the final report. Thus far, all of the applications that AWT have submitted have been accepted into the program, but the sooner the applicants can get their information into the review committee, the better.
If you are interested in the program, please contact us the SCPF office for additional information and forms at (803)779-4700.
