Inspection Summary:
Tim Fox with ARO, DWR inspected the site.
Cameron Greene assisted with the inspection.
Narrative:
The WNC Ag Center is a busy and high profile venue.
Waste material is kept contained in bins or barns and grounds are constantly kept clean.
Containment prevents any run-off during precipitation events.
Bedding and waste are scraped and carried to nearby storage bins that are 10'X 20' X4' and
enclosed on three sides and a bottom.
All of the animal waste and bedding generated at the facility are moved off -site through third party
agreements where it is utilized as a carbon, bedding or nutrient resource.
