The Livestock Development and Oversight
Committee was established in 2003 under Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 5889 to
advise WSDA on implementation of the Livestock Nutrient Management Program in an
effective and equitable manner so that dairy and AFO livestock producers can
meet the requirements of state and federal water quality laws.
The committee sunset June 30, 2006. The
last official meeting was held on July 22, 2006. While no longer a formal
advisory committee, the members are important stakeholders in continuing an
effective livestock water quality program at WSDA and will continue to be
consulted by the agency.
