§ 58-373. Intention.  


Latest version.
  • In recognition of the federal and state laws and regulations regulating the land application of biosolids, it is the intent of the town to allow landowners and leaseholders the opportunity to use biosolids as fertilizer within its jurisdiction while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the town. The land application of biosolids may create adverse effects on water quality in the town and may contribute to the endangerment of the physical and emotional health and welfare of the people, offend the senses, create public nuisances and reduce the quality of life. Therefore, special regulations are necessary to ensure that any adverse effects to the environment and existing and future development are mitigated.
