Public Review of CAFO General Permit Applications & Manure Pollution Prevention Plans
Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO) that are seeking coverage or modification under the CAFO general permit must submit their permit application and Manure Pollution Prevention Plan (MPPP) to Ecology for review. These materials are also available for public review and comment for 30 days. We list these new or modification applications on Ecology's CAFO webpage at https://ecology.wa.gov/CAFO. Ecology will review and consider all comments received during the comment period. Following this review, we may request changes to the Manure Pollution Prevention Plan, before issuing a decision on if the facility will receive permit coverage.
