[QUOTE="KDM, post: 178710, member: 314"] Without have any other knowledge about this issue it is my opinion that ANY large animal feedlot (In animal size ie Sheep on up and not acreage) should NOT be constructed or operated near ANY natural drainage or body of water. Ranching in the pastures around such waterways are NOT feedlots mind you. Having a few thousand cows grazing along the shores is in no way comparable to 50,000 animals fed in confinement pens over the course of a years time. The temptation to use these waterways and lakes as a dump for the TONS AND TONS of waste is just too tempting for these operations when dollars are on the line. There are too many examples of this from all across this nation to ignore this fact. We have winter up here and liquids, along with their transportation systems, tend to FREEZE and stop working. THEN WHAT??? Overland flooding in the spring and any number of other "Natural Events" can cause unplanned discharges and other significant issues to the environment regardless of any regulatory requirements. Without knowing anything more, I would vote NO to this. [/QUOTE]
