Florida Man Arrested for Illegally Composting Horse Manure
by: Erin Ryder, News Editor
August 01 2007 Article # 10117
A Loxahatchee Groves, Fla., man has been arrested by authorities with
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection because he had
allegedly collected around 20,000 cubic yards of horse manure, the South
Florida Sun-Sentinel reported.
You wanna have your drinking water supply - well or stream -
downhill from that?
Hell no, but surely you can see the funny side!
my question is: if he's in jail, then who had to clean up the mess?? I
sure wouldn't want that job. Another news report on it said that it
would take at least 10 farm (dump) trucks to haul it off. These articles
said some of the piles were 15 foot high....don't you know that's a mess
to have to load up? AVALANCHE!!! lol
