MIDDLEBURG — Pennsylvania Department of Environment Protection (DEP) regulations require any operation or entity that raises or boards animals, produces or receives animal manure, regardless of animal type (equine, poultry, livestock, exotic animals, etc.) or animal number have a manure management plan (MMP).

Recently, DEP has developed a simpler MMP version for very small operations. The Snyder County Conservation District (SCCD) will hold a free workshop for small operations to learn about how to complete the simpler MMP version.

The one-hour workshop is set for Thursday, June 5 beginning at 6:30 p.m. at the Snyder County Conservation District Office, 10541 Rte. 522, Middleburg.

Please register or ask questions by calling Barry Spangler, SCCD Ag Conservation Technician, at (570) 837-3000, ext. 5 (agtech@snydercd.org), by Wednesday, June 4.
