Democrats at it AGAIN!!------Bill Proposes Adding Wind Industry to 'Right to Farm' Act

Bill Proposes Adding Wind Industry to 'Right to Farm' Act [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
"Wind turbines could be erected without regard for some local laws under recently introduced legislation.
House Bill 5886 would amend Michigan’s Right to Farm Act to include wind production. If enacted, it would allow wind turbines to be constructed on agricultural land with no zoning or building permits of any kind.
Enacted in 1981, the Right to Farm Act was meant to protect farmers from nuisance lawsuits.
Under the Act, farmers who follow the Generally Accepted Agricultural and Management Practices (GAAMP) are protected from lawsuits over noise, dust, odors and so on that result from normal farm operations. House Bill 5886 would add wind energy production in with farming activities, such as harvesting and storage of farm products.
The measure was introduced on Oct. 2 by Rep. Jeff Irwin, D-Ann Arbor, and Rep. Jon Switalski, D-Warren, and assigned to the House Energy and Technology Committee."
