PACD is sponsoring a Manure Management Manual "Train-the-Trainer" event at Salsa's Mexican Grille near the Bedford Exchange of the PA Turnpike on November 13, 2014.
This workshop is for new Conservation District, DEP and Penn State Extension staff and for anyone who wants a refresher from when the same training was held during the 2011-12 winter season or fall 2013. Participants will leave with a good understanding of the Manure Management Manual and the ability to train others on how to use the manual. The ulitimate goal is to be able to provide assistance and information to agricultural operators that helps them meet compliance with Manure Management Manual requirements.
The training is free and includes a light breakfast and lunch. Sign-in starts at 8:30 AM; with training beginning at 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM.
Financial support for this project is provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection through the Chesapeake Bay Implementation Grant and the Clean Water Fund.
