CAFO DISTANCES

Industrial-sized livestock operations can pose risks to our health and our environment. Ron supports researching the effects CAFO's have on our health and if the results aren't good, he'll put our health first, and increase the mandatory distance between residences and operations.

MINING OPERATIONS

Currently the distance between mines and residences is 300ft. Ron supports, much like with CAFO's, researching the impact on our health, and possible increasing the distance between mines and residences in order to keep our families safe and healthy.
