A bill to amend the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986 to exclude certain air emissions from emergency notification requirements, and for other purposes.
S 2430 amends the 1986 Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act to exclude certain air emissions from animal waste at farms from emergency notification requirements. This bill directly affects agricultural operations that handle animal waste, removing a requirement to report specific airborne emissions to emergency planners and the public. The key provision adds a new exception (B) to the notification rules, explicitly excluding "air emissions from animal waste (including decomposing waste) at a farm" as defined under related environmental law. This change simplifies reporting obligations for farms while maintaining other emergency planning requirements under the Act.
