EPA Region 7 representatives will host a public informational meeting for livestock producers about the Agency’s inspection program for concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) on Monday, July 2, in Lexington, Nebraska.

Topics at the meeting include:
- selection of CAFOs for inspection,
- aerial overflights to assess CAFOs,
- winter feeding areas,
- manure stockpiling and
- nutrient management plans.
There will be an opportunity for attendees to interact with EPA officials during a question-and-answer session.
