We invite you to comment on the draft permit for the Enchanted Dairy LLC - Parkview Acres animal feedlot located in Morrison County.
The facility will house 2,366 head of dairy in total confinement barns, open lots, and individual animal housing areas. Liquid manure generated by the animals will be stored within earthen lined and concrete lined storage structures. Solid manure generated by the animals will be stockpiled at the facility. Process wastewater and manure contaminated runoff from the facility will be stored within lined structures. Manure generated at the facility will be applied to surrounding cropland at agronomic rates. The final animal unit (AU) capacity of the facility will be at 1,425.4 AU.
This permitting action includes proposed construction and expansion of animal holding areas and permanent stockpiles at the facility. The animal unit (AU) capacity will be increased from 1353.4 AU to a final total of 1425.4 AU.
This permit requires the facility to be designed, operated, and maintained to prevent discharge to waters, except in an extreme storm event. Operators are required to land apply manure at agronomic rates, observe water setbacks, and maintain records of land application activities, including location, timing, and rate of application. Please refer to the draft permit for additional requirements.
The MPCA’s feedlot permit strives to protect our lakes, rivers, streams, wetlands, and groundwater by preventing manure from polluting water. The permit applies to most aspects of livestock management including the location, design, construction, operation, and management of feedlots and manure handling facilities. Minnesota has approximately 18,000 registered livestock operations.
