“environazi’s have no real rationale ...”
So true - my oldest daughter, 25, just married last June (expecting first baby this June) and her new husband live in the hilly farmland in Otsego County roughly 7 miles east of Cooperstown. They are starting a small diary operation, so this topic hits home for me.
Instead of the environazi’s giving a knee jerk no to this - why doesn’t the state actually solve the problem by hiring some envirnmental engeneers with expertise in water tables so we can properly manage any run off? Let’s solve the problem - not overly regulate farms!! I think my daughter nad son in law might be in the Sesquahanna watershed, not sure, but I do know they are in a hollow FAR from any direct nitrate run off to impact any watershed directly. They only have 40 cows so far ....
I am for clean water as much as anyone else - but lets solve the problem intelligently!! (liberals lack logic)
sorry -environmental engineers - was typing too fast
