This bill updates South Dakota's water pollution rules to require certain animal operations to get their own water permits instead of operating under another facility's permit. Specifically, if an operation independently processes or stores manure and animal waste in amounts that would qualify as a large concentrated animal feeding operation, it must obtain its own general or individual water pollution permit from the state. The bill also updates the federal regulations reference used to define what counts as a concentrated animal feeding operation.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
