Free nutrient management plans for Western producers


The Environmental Resources Coalition has recently received a Federal grant to help livestock producers west of the Mississippi River prepare Nutrient Management Plans and to provide producers with Environmental Assessments.

The Comprehensive Livestock Environmental Assessment & Nutrient Management Plan (CLEANmp) will provide free, confidential assistance. Producers do not have to possess or apply for a NPDES permit in order to receive technical assistance, and the results of the assessments will not be used to impose NPDES requirements.

For more information, contact Betty Wyse, project manager, or Mark White, technical director at 573-634-7078 or log on to the sites listed:
