Final Report and Recommendations: Managing Air Emissions from Confined Feeding Operations in Alberta, March 2008
CFO team goal: The CASA Confined Feeding Operations Project Team worked within the CASA consensus process to develop a strategic plan to improve the management of air emissions from existing and future CFOs in Alberta and to improve relationships between stakeholders.
In developing the plan, the team considered the following principles:
• continuous improvement and pollution prevention to protect air quality;
• prevention of short and long-term adverse effects on human, animal and ecosystem health due to air emissions; and
• assurance that air quality recommendations maximize social, economic, environmental and health benefits and minimize social, economic, environmental and health costs.
