Farmers Face Fines Jail Under 1977 Erosion Law
Chapter 102 of the Pennsylvania Clean Streams Act requires every farmer by July 1 1977 to have a conservation plan on site and show it when asked. Failure to install erosion controls could bring fines up to 10000 dollars per conviction and daily penalties, with possible jail. Critics warn about enforceability and costs for farm and development projects as plans and practices face hurdles.
