82. General Permit Requirements For Confined Animal Feeding Operations In Virginia soil, water, and waste sampling and monitoring plans; Each nutrient managementplan requires soil and waste monitoring. http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/livestock/446-049/446-049.html

General Permit Requirements for Confined Animal Feeding Operations in Virginia Author: David Kenyon, Professor of Agricultural and Applied Economics, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia. Publication Number 446-049, July 1996 Table of Contents Introduction Who Needs a Permit? Application Process Nutrient Management Plan ... Summary Introduction A new waste management permit for confined animal feeding operations was adopted by the Virginia State Water Control Board on September 19, 1994, and became effective on November 16, 1994. The new regulation is referred to as the Virginia Pollution Abatement (VPA) General Permit Regulation for Confined Animal Feeding Operations [VR-680-14-22]. The purpose of this publication is to help producers understand who must have a permit to manage animal waste, how to apply for a permit, and the basic requirements contained in the general permit. Return to Table of Contents Who Needs a Permit? A "confined animal feeding operation" means a lot or facility, together with any associated treatment works, where both of the following conditions are met. One, animals have been, are, or will be stabled or confined and fed or maintained for a total of 45 days or more in any 12-month period. And two, crops, vegetation, forage growth, or post-harvest residues are not sustained over any portion of the operation lot or facility. A permit is required for any confined animal feeding operation (CAFO) having 300 or more animal units utilizing a liquid manure collection and storage system. Table 1 contains the actual number of various livestock and poultry species equivalent to 300 animal units. The permit requirement only applies to liquid manure handling systems. Broiler, turkey, and laying hen operations using a dry manure handling system are excluded. The permit allows CAFO to operate and maintain waste storage facilities and to apply waste to land. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) may require producers smaller than those listed in Table 1 to obtain a permit if public complaints and subsequent DEQ inspections indicate the producer is not following acceptable waste management practices. No producer, regardless of size, is permitted to have a point source discharge of waste into surface waters.

Improved water management can make a significant contribution to achieving important millennium development goals established by the UN General Assembly in 2000, in particular in the fight against poverty, hunger, child and maternal mortality, and major diseases. The World Summit on Sustainable Development 2002 devoted great attention to water and sanitation, recognising the need for massive efforts in developing and applying science and technology. Among the important issues in water resources management and hydrology are floods, droughts, water scarcity, water usage, water quality, water-ecosystem interactions, soil-water-climate interactions, and the sustainability of water resources. Many current international initiatives have identified earth observation for water cycle research as the key to helping to solve the world's water problems.

This was done according to state law known as the Soil Conservation Districts Law. A 1964 amendment to the state law added "water" and the title became the Soil and Water Conservation Districts Law. Another amendment in 1989 added language regarding water quality improvement and abatement of non-point sources of water pollution. In 1989 the Genesee County Legislature designated the district as "the local planning, management, and implementing agency responsible for 1) erosion and sediment control on potential non-point sources such as streambanks, construction sites, forestry, mined land, road banks, urban sources and agriculture; 2) stormwater runoff; 3) fertilizer and pesticide management; 4) agricultural waste."

Land use change and geomorphic, soil and water processes in tropical mountain environments Symposium: Ecuador 16-21 December 2002 Rationale The Earth's environment is changing at an ever increasing rate due to the growth of human population, an increasing level of resource consumption by human societies and changes in technology and socio-political organisations. The major components and drivers of global environmental change are: (i) climatic changes, both on a local and on a global scale (ii) the reduction in both diversity and abundance of terrestrial species (iii) changes in atmospheric composition, especially the increase in CO2 concentration and (iv) land-use/cover changes (Turner II et al., 1995). References Price, M. (Ed.), 1999. Global Change in the Mountains, Parthenon Press, New York. Objectives This symposium aims at bringing together scientists from various disciplines dealing with soil and water issues in tropical mountain areas. The main objectives of the symposium can be formulated as follows: To exchange information and scientific findings on the effects of land use change on geomorphic, soil and water processes in tropical mountain areas in a broad sense.

Citrus Water Management Julian W. Sauls Professor and Extension Horticulturist Texas Cooperative Extension Citrus, a perennial evergreen tree, requires available soil moisture throughout the yeargenerally a minimum of 45 to 50 inches of water annually. Because average annual rainfall in the Lower Rio Grande Valley ranges from 17 to 27 inches across the citrus-production area and rainfall distribution through the year is irregular, supplemental irrigation is essential for sustained economic citrus production. Moreover, the irregular seasonal distribution patterns of rainfall frequently result in the need to apply more total irrigation water than merely the difference between natural rainfall and total annual water requirement. This occurs when rainfall amounts at a given time exceed what is needed to replenish soil moisture to field capacity. The amount and timing of irrigation applications are dependent upon tree age, soil type, weed management, climate and irrigation system. Mature trees require more water than young trees but young trees require more frequent irrigation because of limited root systems. Sandy soils have a lower water holding capacity than heavier soils, thus, requiring more frequent irrigation, preferably with less water per irrigation. Orchards which are tilled or disked for weed control require more water than those under chemical weed control, because of the use of water by weeds and the drying of surface soil from cultivation. Applied water, whether by irrigation or rainfall, is used first to replenish the soil reservoir. Water in excess of that necessary to replenish available soil moisture percolates through the soil profile to the ground water table, carrying with it salts which have accumulated in the soil profile. A 3-inch rain may provide leaching of a fine sandy loam soil, but may not completely replenish the soil moisture of a clay loam soil.

Sources of Additional Information Significant Points Nearly two-thirds of salaried conservation scientists and foresters work for Federal, State, or local governments. A bachelor’s degree in forestry, range management, or a related discipline is the minimum educational requirement. Slower-than-average job growth is projected because of limited growth in government and in forestry and logging; most employment opportunities will be in private sector consulting. Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Forests and rangelands supply wood products, livestock forage, minerals, and water; serve as sites for recreational activities; and provide habitats for wildlife. Conservation scientists and foresters manage, develop, use, and help to protect these and other natural resources. Foresters Throughout the forest management and procurement processes, foresters consider the economics as well as the environmental impact on natural resources. To do this, they determine how to conserve wildlife habitats, creek beds, water quality, and soil stability, and how best to comply with environmental regulations. Foresters must balance the desire to conserve forested ecosystems for future generations with the need to use forest resources for recreational or economic purposes.

The project is integrated with local catchment groups and catchment steering committees that are actively involved in the planning, development and implementation of action plans for regions, catchments and properties. The project assists in changing attitudes to current farming systems and the development of improved systems that capitalise on the 'unused' rainfall on farms to increase productivity and farm viability. The PIRSA Saltland Projects Register (December 1999) has been compiled and maintained to facilitate networking between operators associated with PIRSA who are involved with research and extension in dryland salinity throughout SA.
