A2B—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, November 15,1980 Pa. Jersey breeders sell top cattle at All American LOUISVILLE, Ky - Two Pennsylvania consignments brought top dollar during two major sales held here during last week’s All American Show. Spring Run Farm, New Wilmington, consigned the high-selling heifer in the Legislative roundup (Continued from Page Al) HB 1794, somewhat rewritten from earlier drafts, would assure far mers freedom from or dinances prohibiting normal noise or odor connected with farm operations. PFA told its members an “all out effort is needed to pass these bills before ad journment.” State Grange Master Charles Wismer said Friday “this is our biggest priority for the remaining session.” Tune is the big question mark hanging over HB 1794, as well as several other pieces of general legislation A section of HB 1794 which would have prohibited the bringing of nuisance suits by neighbors or others against farmers had to be stricken from the bill because the office of the attorney general said it would be un constitutional to deny anyone the right to bring a lawsuit. The bill does include protection for certain ag processors. Any processor who produces 51 percent or more of a crop grown on the premises, would be included m the bill’s protection. HB 1794 says any or dinance “defining or prohibiting a public nuisance shall exclude any agricultural operation conducted using accepted practices of husbandry,” as long as agriculture is per mitted m the area.

As with the Agnes disaster payments, a constitutional amendment would be needed. Lawmakers see the present situation as requiring similar action. While widespread, the weather problem for far mers is not an acute emergency like a town losing its water supply, or similar disaster, calling for im mediate relief The big problem facing all legislation now on the Hill is the short tune left m the current legislative session. The session ends November 30 Legislators have agreed to meet three days this week. They are undecided on a session next week because of Thanksgiving. Any bill which does not pass both chambers by then will die.
