Protecting the public from water quality impacts of publicly owned or operated game farms.

This bill requires publicly owned game farms, like those run by the state, to get permits to manage animal waste and prevent water pollution. It directs the Department of Ecology to include pheasants and similar game birds in its rules for animal feeding operations. This change aims to ensure public facilities follow the same water quality protection rules as private farms and to prevent pollution of drinking water sources.
