Amends GS 113A-52.01 to add new subsection (b), requiring a 25-foot undisturbed, vegetated buffer zone between waters classified as trout waters by the Environmental Management Commission and any agricultural related land-disturbing activities as defined GS 113A-52.01(a). Allows the Commission to approve plans within this 25-foot buffer when the disturbance would be temporary and the extent of the disturbance would be minimal. Makes a corresponding change to subsection (a) of that section.
Effective and applies to activities initiated on or after January 1, 2024.
