The 1 23 current law provides that two or more operations shall be 1 24 deemed a single operation if they are under common ownership 1 25 or management and either utilize a common system for manure 1 26 storage or are adjacent. This bill eliminates the requirement 1 27 of adjacency and provides that they must be considered a 1 28 single operation if they are separated at their closest points 1 29 by 2,500 feet or less. 1 30 LSB 3460YH 76 1 31 da/jw/5
