Abstract |
The Presidents's Water Pollution Control Advisory Board met October 26-29, 1971 in Denver, Colorado and at various sites in Illinois and Indiana, January 24-28, 1972 to review the relationship between animal wastes and water quality throughout the United States. The Denver meeting addressed itself to the problem in the States west of the Mississippi River while the Illinois-Indiana session covered States east of the Mississippi. In addition, the Board considered recommendations developed by a National Symposium on Animal Waste Management at Warrenton, Virginia on September 28-30, 1971 and by workshops conducted by several academic institutions. This report is a summary of the two meetings held on the animal waste problem. |
