Description | This report evaluates and provides information about the successfulness of EPA Grant #BG- 99086004, Performance Partnership Grant for chipping of orchard debris. The agricultural burning of field crop residue and orchard tear-out residue (debris from fruit tree orchards) can directly affect the health and safety of people that breathe the smoke-filled air. The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) regulates agricultural burning through a permit program to reduce the smoke’s effects on public health. |
