Re: [RC] Wash your car - can't water your livestock... - Linda Marins----- Original Message ----- From: Spottedracer@xxxxxx Just saw this story on the evening news.... lafayette, Macon County, TN has implemented new water >restrictions:... Farmers CANNOT use public water to fill/supply water to ANY livestock... ... will simply KILL all of their livestock once their trophs go dry.. ... Since horses are considered 'livestock' - all horse owners face this same dilemma... I have a very hard time believing that the Tennessee Farm Bureau would allow such a restriction to stay in effect. TNFB is extremely powerful politically. I'd be on the phone to Farm Bureau, my Farm Bureau regional rep, my state legislators (local governments are *not* allowed to overrule state laws and regulations), the state Dept. of Ag vets, the local Extension agent, AND the Humane Society!!!
