Agricultural Consultation and Training
Leads to Voluntary Compliance
The Agricultural Consultation and Training program (ACT) is an innovative compliance assistance program designed to assist farmers, ranchers and others involved in agriculture. Act responds to requests from the agricultural community for on-site visits providing compliance in a non-regulatory mode.
ACT provides assistance for:
Livestock and Crop Conservation Grant Program
Speciality Crop Block Grant Program
Pesticide and Worker Protection
Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation
Agricultural Conservation Education Program
Air Quality - Agricultural PM10 Best Management Practices
ACT is not affiliated with on-going enforcement activity within the Department and detected violations are not made available to regulatory personnel except in cases of imminent danger where human health and welfare are concerned.
After visiting a site, ACT personnel provides the requestor with a detailed evaluation report tailored specifically to the requested subject. The report describes information discussed during the visit and offers corrective recommendations, if applicable.
For more information, call 1-800-294-0308 or (602) 542-0137.
