Application regarding swine facility odour dismissed as the operation complied with MDS II and constituted a normal farm practice.
The applicants, neighbours of the respondents' swine facility, applied to the Normal Farm Practices Protection Board alleging a disturbance from odour.
The Board found that the applicants met the threshold test of being directly affected by a disturbance.
However, the Board determined that the respondents' operation complied with the Minimum Distance Separation II (MDS II) guidelines, based on the existing capacity of a prior beef feeder operation on the site.
The Board concluded that the respondents were carrying on a normal farm practice and dismissed the application.
