The applicants filed a complaint regarding noise, light, and vibration disturbances caused by the respondents' early morning use of a diesel tractor to feed cattle.

The Normal Farm Practices Protection Board found that the operation of heavy farm machinery between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. constituted a disturbance and was not a normal farm practice.

The Board ordered the respondents to restrict their use of heavy farm machinery for transporting cattle feed to hours outside this period, except for necessary snow removal.
