[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1847460, member: 42782"] From the article "According to this definition, a few-acre homestead with pasture and let's say two milking cows and some chickens qualifies as a CAFO if it has any area on the property where rock or gravel is used as a route to get to a small barn or coop." In 2020 we graveled over a new culvert put in so livestock could get to one of the pastures. Fortunately it rains so much in the winter the gravel is now all covered over with mud but it's only ankle deep. People by law have to keep track of water used each month for annual report to "the Water Master". You don't even own the rain water that falls on your roof, no water barrels allowed. At my forest cabin place I built in the next county it cost me almost $2000 for permits to use my own spring. One thing about it though, out in the country there is lack of reporting and under reporting. There is a whole lot of flexible black plastic water hose running all over the landscape to water troughs and people's houses :) [/QUOTE]
