US: Poultry groups welcome EPA’s exemption
A joint statement was issued by the National Chicken Council, National Turkey Federation, and US Poultry & Egg Association on last week’s announcement by the US Environmental Protection Agency.
“The Environmental Protection Agency has proposed to grant to poultry farmers a narrowly tailored exemption from rules that would otherwise require them to report ’emissions’ that are a normal result of livestock and poultry operations.

The EPA was additionally commended for acting with common sense.
