CAFO Activities
In South Dakota, concentrated animal feeding operations are regulated by a General Water Pollution Control Permit. One of the permit requirements is that producers submit the plans for their manure management system. The plans and specifications for their system must meet Department of Environment and Natural Resources design requirements and be approved by a department engineer. For more information, contact Kent Woodmansey at (605) 773-3351.
The department has developed tools to assist producers in understanding the permitting process, selecting a good location for a new operation, and to answer common questions about the general permit. The department also maintains a list of consultants who have indicated they provide engineering and/or geotechnical services related to the design of manure management systems. The department is developing a list of nutrient management planners that can assist producers with preparing initial nutrient management plans and annual nutrient management plans.
