I have and would now. I'm not sure what the Cape is like closer to Wilmington, but here in Lillington it's great.

no

No thanks. Since hurricane Floyd, hog farms have been the most regulated industry in the state. It was a shame the damage that hurricane did with all the flooding. 10 inches the week before and 20 inches during. Hog lagoons have limits, with usually 19 inches of freeboard, and thirty inches of rain is just too much, too fast. As we learned with hurricane Katrina, most government regulations don't meet requirements needed to withstand such forces that a hurricane can bring.
Violators of environmental regulations face steep fines. $20,000 a day is what I heard years ago and I'm sure it's much more now. So, no. I'm not in favor of more regulation. I'm in favor of enforcing current regulation.
I've met several swine farmers over the years. And they all seem like pretty normal people. It's kind of like driving. Do you speed? Have you ever run a red light? Do you come to a complete stop at a stop sign. Depends on the driver, so to speak.
Yeah, enforce the current rules and regulations. The operations I've seen in this area (Harnett County) are clean and becoming more eco-friendly. A couple have lagoon covers that capture and burn methane. Plans are in works to use the methane to power a generator that will provide electricity for the farm and surrounding homes in the community.
