Bill summary

Transitions a four-county animal waste inspection program from a pilot program to a permanent program. Under the program, inspections in the four participating counties are conducted by the Division of Soil and Water Conservation rather than the Division of Water Quality and the local soil and water conservation districts are relied upon for quick response to complaints and reported problems. Provides that the four counties currently participating in the program remain in the program until the Department of Environment and Natural Resources determines otherwise. Amends the session law that created the pilot program to remove the September 1, 2011, sunset and amends GS 143-215.10F to codify the permanent program.
