Jasper County CAFO a Go
Take 1 cautious BZA, add it a chicken turned cattle CAFO, 300 local concerned residents, and members of the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department for good measure and you get: compromise. The CAFO was approved but conditions were installed.
What conditions? 10,000 maximum population, manure stored under a roof, incorporation within 48 hours of spreading, liquid manure composed with dry waste, dust control, a screen, impermeable barrier under the cattle, 3 monitoring wells and fly control. Interestingly, one additional condition was for the owner to obtain a permit from IDEM.
