In Another Blow to Decentralized Natural Meat Production, EPA Rule Indirectly Shuts Down Small Meat Producers via Clean Water Act Overreach
Americans Will Lose the Choice to Buy Local Meats
On January 23, 2024, under Biden Administration guidance, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a new rule that will bring 3,879 meat and poultry products (MPP) processing facilities under their jurisdiction. This was swiftly followed by an abbreviated comment period which closed on March 25, 2024, and then immediate implementation of the rule change. All justified by wastewater levels of Nitrogen and Phosphorus coming from animal meat processing, mirroring the WEF agenda to minimize Nitrogen runoff from European farms which has sparked the widespread farmer protests throughout the European Union.
What does this mean to small meat processing facilities? It’s been reported that the initial cost to install a water filtration system bringing them into compliance be $300,000-400,000 with a minimum of $100,000 annual maintenance. This would force many small meat processing facilities to shutter their doors.
…
As a result, The EPA has decided that the entire meat industry – from slaughtering beef to poultry, marinas to packaging – must now retrofit current facilities with lagoons and biomass dissipates to turn “nutrients” into C02 and methane in order to prevent these “pollutants” from entering local water supplies.
The EPA anticipates these new rules will, at least, result in the closure of 16 processing facilities across the country at a time when our country’s meat producers are already struggling to survive due to bottlenecks in USDA certified facilities. However, on the high side EPA estimates include an impact range of up to 845 processing facilities.
Beef plant closures, and the introduction of deadly cancer-causing and immune-system-collapsing modified RNA into everything we eat. Murder of millions of egg-laying and fryer chickens based on a “bird-flu” lie. Food processing facilities burned down. Transport infrastructure collapsing. Poisoning of our remaining food supply with disease-carrying insects, glyphosate, GMO frankencorn and much more. 40% – 50% inflation on everything that normal Americans have to buy to survive.
This is barely scratching the surface.
Pattern recognition is a critical thinking skill.
I can only imagine the looks of absolute horror on the EPA employees faces; as they are being violently butchered for their crimes against the people. Pretty much the same; across our entire bureaucracies. Unelected employees do not enjoy special protections under U.S. laws.
I pray our local farmers demand protections from there board of commissioners as well as the sheriffs to tell the epa not to enter into local farming communities to shut down there farming operations and if they do they will all be arrested and put in prison. if the sheriff won’t do his job then he must be replaced with one whO will perform his duties to the people of his county.
I guess we still a choice, stay on our knees and accept enslavement and death, or stand and fight for our lives, because that is what it has come to.
When are nations going to ban USA bombs? These bombs destroy resources for the world!
Pattern recognition IS a critical thinking skill!
Anyone who isn’t squeamish looking for a side gig may consider learning home butchering. Its how farms did it for centuries when bessie stopped giving milk. Someone with a portable setup in a van? Hells bells if you couldn’t charge 1,000 per day for your time…
The local truck that goes to farms here charges $150 per cow to kill and dress out. 2 hispanic guys do it. You have to schedule it 3 months ahead.
nobody is going to own livestock at this rate.
the state will own the means of production.
welcome to totalitarianism, peeps.

did anyone else catch the full info on the posting of a news article on government mandating registration of all chickens? Saw a blurb but blew right past it as simply dumb. Then earlier this evening a friend e-mailed any inquiry to the subject.
don’t know about chickens’ but they’ve been discussing the RFID tracking of all cattle for years.
i think it was being voted on recently. that’s why the article about the bird flu on a dairy farm. everything is always for our “safety”.
it never stops. one contrived ‘crisis’ after another and the solutions are always more central gvt.
