“If other additional
critical areas mentioned in
the proposed plan have an
effect on agriculture, then
the Department of
Agriculture should be in
volved in helping to deter
mine policies.”
In addition to prime far-
with limited water supply,
clean air resourve areas,
open space in metropolitan
areas, and geologic areas
with development restraints.

Wismer also stated that
the Grange favors legislation
pending in the General
Assembly (House Bill 2406)
which would prohibit the
Department of En
vironmental Resources from
adopting rules or regulations
regarding air contaminants
and air ppllution that would
interfere with the normal
production of agricultural
commodities.
He also recommended that
agriculture be accorded
priority in the use of water
for irrigation as the need
arises.
Following the hearing, J.
Luther Snyder, State Grange
master, pointed out that the
proposed Environmental
Master Plan states that
“human survival, the sur
vival of all other living
things, and the general well-
Embargo lifted
HARRISBURG - Penn
sylvania Agriculture
Secretary Raymond J.
Kerstetter recently signed a
notice rescinding the
Commonwealth’s em
bargoes that restricted
imports of swine from areas
in Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, New Jersey and
Rhode Island that were
quarantined for hog cholera.
The notice states that “all
embargoes and embargo
modifications” against these
being of society depend upon
the health and maintenance
of the natural environment,
clean air, pure water and the
protection of the complex
ecological relationships.”
Snyder said the statement
falls short of a realistic and
practical goal for a sound
environment by failing to
recognize food as necessary
for survival, along with
clean air and pure water.
“It is necessary to
recognize that the three
basic needs of man are clean
air, pure water, and suf
ficient food for good health
and sound bodies,” he
stated. “In our zeal to
protect any one of these, we
must be careful not to harm
or destroy another. We must
keep all three in balance if
man, and other living things,
are to survive,” he added.
four states “concerning the
movement of swine from
those areas, as the result of
the presence of the disease
hog cholera, are hereby
revoked.”
Pennsylvania’s action
follows the removal of
federal quarantines in the
four states, the latest being
June 7 in New Hampshire.
“No areas in the continental
United States remain under
quarantine for hog cholera,”
Kerstetter pointed out in his
notice.
