the Fish Health Blue Book or the Diagnostic Manual for Aquatic Animal Diseases by a
person certified as a fish health inspector.

(f) All aquatic life in transit or held at transfer stations within the state may be inspected
by the commissioner. This inspection may include the collection of stock for purposes of
pathological analysis. Sample size necessary for analysis will follow guidelines listed in
the Fish Health Blue Book or the Diagnostic Manual for Aquatic Animal Diseases.

(g) Salmonids, catfish, or species on the VHS susceptible list must have a fish health
inspection before being transported from a containment facility, unless the fish are being
transported directly to an outlet for processing or other food purposes or unless the
commissioner determines that an inspection is not needed. A fish health inspection conducted
for this purpose need only be done on the lot or lots of fish that will be transported. The
commissioner must conduct a fish health inspection requested for this purpose within five
working days of receiving written notice. Salmonids and catfish may be immediately
transported from a containment facility to another containment facility once a sample has
been obtained for a health inspection or once the five-day notice period has expired.

Permanent school fund authority; reporting.

(a) The commissioner of
natural resources has the authority and responsibility to administer school trust lands under
sections 92.122 and 127A.31. The commissioner shall deleted text beginbiannuallydeleted text endnew text begin bienniallynew text end report to the
Legislative Permanent School Fund Commission and the legislature on the management of
the school trust lands that shows how the commissioner has and will continue to achieve
the following goals:

(1) manage the school trust lands efficiently and in a manner that reflects the undivided
loyalty to the beneficiaries consistent with the commissioner's fiduciary duties;

(2) reduce the management expenditures of school trust lands and maximize the revenues
deposited in the permanent school trust fund;

(3) manage the sale, exchange, and commercial leasing of school trust lands, requiring
returns of not less than fair market value, to maximize the revenues deposited in the
permanent school trust fund and retain the value from the long-term appreciation of the
school trust lands;

(4) manage the school trust lands to maximize the long-term economic return for the
permanent school trust fund while maintaining sound natural resource conservation and
management principles;

(5) optimize school trust land revenues and maximize the value of the trust consistent
with balancing short-term and long-term interests, so that long-term benefits are not lost in
an effort to maximize short-term gains; and

(6) maintain the integrity of the trust and prevent the misapplication of its lands and its
revenues.

(b) When the commissioner finds an irresolvable conflict between maximizing the
long-term economic return and protecting natural resources and recreational values on
school trust lands, the commissioner shall give precedence to the long-term economic return
in managing school trust lands. By July 1, 2018, the permanent school fund must be
compensated for all school trust lands included under a designation or policy provision that
prohibits long-term economic return. The commissioner shall submit recommendations to
the appropriate legislative committees and divisions on methods of funding for the
compensation required under this paragraph, including recommendations for appropriations
from the general fund, nongeneral funds, and the state bond fund. Any uncompensated
designation or policy provision restrictions on the long-term economic return on school
trust lands remaining after July 1, 2018, must be compiled and submitted to the Legislative
Permanent School Fund Commission for review.

(c) By December 31, 2013, the report required under paragraph (a) must provide an
inventory and identification of all school trust lands that are included under a designation
or policy provision that prohibits long-term economic return. The report must include a plan
to compensate the permanent school fund through the purchase or exchange of the lands or
a plan to manage the school trust land to generate long-term economic return to the permanent
school fund. Subsequent reports under paragraph (a) must include a status report of the
commissioner's progress in maximizing the long-term economic return on lands identified
in the 2013 report.

(d) When management practices, policies, or designations by the commissioner diminish
or prohibit the long-term economic return on school trust land, the conflict must be resolved
as provided in section 92.122.

Subd. 7.

Counties; processing applications for animal lot permits.

(a) Any Minnesota
county board may, by resolution, with approval of the Pollution Control Agency, assume
responsibility for processing applications for permits required by the Pollution Control
Agency under this section for livestock feedlots, poultry lots or other animal lots. The
responsibility for permit application processing, if assumed by a county, may be delegated
by the county board to any appropriate county officer or employee.

(b) For the purposes of this subdivision, the term "processing" includes:

(1) the distribution to applicants of forms provided by the Pollution Control Agency;

(2) the receipt and examination of completed application forms, and the certification,
in writing, to the Pollution Control Agency either that the animal lot facility for which a
permit is sought by an applicant will comply with applicable rules and standards, or, if the
facility will not comply, the respects in which a variance would be required for the issuance
of a permit; and

(3) rendering to applicants, upon request, assistance necessary for the proper completion
of an application.

(c) For the purposes of this subdivision, the term "processing" may include, at the option
of the county board, issuing, denying, modifying, imposing conditions upon, or revoking
permits pursuant to the provisions of this section or rules promulgated pursuant to it, subject
to review, suspension, and reversal by the Pollution Control Agency. The Pollution Control
Agency shall, after written notification, have 15 days to review, suspend, modify, or reverse
the issuance of the permit. After this period, the action of the county board is final, subject
to appeal as provided in chapter 14. For permit applications filed after October 1, 2001,
section 15.99 applies to feedlot permits issued by the agency or a county pursuant to this
subdivision.

(d) For the purpose of administration of rules adopted under this subdivision, the
commissioner and the agency may provide exceptions for cases where the owner of a feedlot
has specific written plans to close the feedlot within five years. These exceptions include
waiving requirements for major capital improvements.

(e) For purposes of this subdivision, a discharge caused by an extraordinary natural event
such as a precipitation event of greater magnitude than the 25-year, 24-hour event, tornado,

Resources Conservation Service and the Farm Service Agency, to notify and educate
producers of rules under this subdivision at the time the rules are being developed and
adopted and at least every two years thereafter.

(h) The Pollution Control Agency shall adopt rules governing the issuance and denial
of permits for livestock feedlots, poultry lots or other animal lots pursuant to this section.
Pastures are exempt from the rules authorized under this paragraph. deleted text beginNo feedlot permit shall

or utilized by the feedlot operator other than restrictions under a manure management plan.
deleted text end
A feedlot permit is not required for livestock feedlots with more than ten but less than 50
animal units; provided they are not in shoreland areas. A livestock feedlot permit does not
become required solely because of a change in the ownership of the buildings, grounds, or
feedlot. These rules apply both to permits issued by counties and to permits issued by the
Pollution Control Agency directly.new text begin No feedlot permit issued by the Pollution Control Agency
shall include terms or conditions that:
new text end

new text begin (1) impose requirements related to pastures owned or used by the feedlot operator other
than restrictions under a manure management plan; or
new text end

new text begin (2) require implementing nitrogen best management practices as a condition of allowing
application of manure in October.
new text end

(i) The Pollution Control Agency shall exercise supervising authority with respect to
the processing of animal lot permit applications by a county.

(j) Any new rules or amendments to existing rules proposed under the authority granted
in this subdivision, or to implement new fees on animal feedlots, must be submitted to the
members of legislative policy and finance committees with jurisdiction over agriculture and
the environment prior to final adoption. The rules must not become effective until 90 days
after the proposed rules are submitted to the members.

(k) Until new rules are adopted that provide for plans for manure storage structures, any
plans for a liquid manure storage structure must be prepared or approved by a registered
professional engineer or a United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources
Conservation Service employee.

(l) A county may adopt by ordinance standards for animal feedlots that are more stringent
than standards in Pollution Control Agency rules.

(m) After January 1, 2001, a county that has not accepted delegation of the feedlot permit
program must hold a public meeting prior to the agency issuing a feedlot permit for a feedlot
facility with 300 or more animal units, unless another public meeting has been held with
regard to the feedlot facility to be permitted.

(n) After the proposed rules published in the State Register, volume 24, number 25, are
finally adopted, the agency may not impose additional conditions as a part of a feedlot
permit, unless specifically required by law or agreed to by the feedlot operator.

(o) For the purposes of feedlot permitting, a discharge from land-applied manure or a
manure stockpile that is managed according to agency rule must not be subject to a fine for
a discharge violation.

(p) For the purposes of feedlot permitting, manure that is land applied, or a manure
stockpile that is managed according to agency rule, must not be considered a discharge into
waters of the state, unless the discharge is to waters of the state, as defined by section
103G.005, subdivision 17, except type 1 or type 2 wetlands, as defined in section 103G.005,
subdivision 17b
, and does not meet discharge standards established for feedlots under agency
rule.

section 145A.04, subdivision 8, or the facility is determined to be a concentrated animal
feeding operation under Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, section 122.23, in effect on
April 15, 2003, the agency may not require a feedlot operator:

(1) to spend more than $3,000 to upgrade an existing feedlot with less than 300 animal
units unless cost-share money is available to the feedlot operator for 75 percent of the cost
of the upgrade; or

(2) to spend more than $10,000 to upgrade an existing feedlot with between 300 and
500 animal units, unless cost-share money is available to the feedlot operator for 75 percent
of the cost of the upgrade or $50,000, whichever is less.

(r) A feedlot operator who stores and applies up to 100,000 gallons per calendar year of
private truck wash wastewater resulting from trucks that transport animals or supplies to
and from the feedlot does not require a permit to land-apply industrial by-products if the
feedlot operator stores and applies the wastewater in accordance with Pollution Control
Agency requirements for land applications of industrial by-product that do not require a
permit.

(s) A feedlot operator who holds a permit from the Pollution Control Agency to
land-apply industrial by-products from a private truck wash is not required to have a certified
land applicator apply the private truck wash wastewater if the wastewater is applied by the
feedlot operator to cropland owned or leased by the feedlot operator or by a commercial
animal waste technician licensed by the commissioner of agriculture under chapter 18C.
For purposes of this paragraph and paragraph (r), "private truck wash" means a truck washing
facility owned or leased, operated, and used only by a feedlot operator to wash trucks owned
or leased by the feedlot operator and used to transport animals or supplies to and from the
feedlot.

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 290C.01, is amended to read:


290C.01 PURPOSE.

It is the policy of this state to promote sustainable forest resource management on the
state's public and private lands. The state's private forests comprise approximately one-half
of the state forest land resources. These forests play a critical role in protecting water quality
and soil resources, and provide extensive wildlife habitat, new text beginnatural carbon sequestration,
new text end diverse recreational experiences, and significant forest products that support the state's
economy. Ad valorem property taxes represent a significant annual cost that can discourage
long-term forest management investments. In order to foster silviculture investments and
retain these forests for their economic and ecological benefits, this chapter, hereafter referred
to as the "Sustainable Forest Incentive Act," is enacted to encourage the state's private forest
landowners to make a long-term commitment to sustainable forest management.

Sec. 104.

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 290C.04, is amended to read:

forest management plan, issued by the commissioner of natural resources. The covenant
shall state in writing that the covenant is binding on the claimant and the claimant's successor
or assignee, and that it runs with the land for a period of not less than eight years unless the
claimant requests termination of the covenant after a reduction in payments due to changes
in the payment formula under section 290C.07 or as a result of executive action, the amount
of payment a claimant is eligible to receive under section 290C.07 is reduced or limited.
The commissioner shall specify the form of the covenant and provide copies upon request.
The covenant must include a legal description that encompasses all the forest land that the
claimant wishes to enroll under this section or the certificate of title number for that land if

for enrollment into the Sustainable Forest Incentive Act as electronic geospatial data, as
defined in section 16E.30, subdivision 10.

(b) The commissioner shall provide by electronic means data sufficient for the
commissioner of natural resources to determine whether the land qualifies for enrollment.

resources must notify the commissioner whether the land qualifies for enrollment within
30 days of the data being available, and if the land qualifies for enrollment, the commissioner
of natural resources shall specify the number of qualifying acres per tax parcel.

(c) The commissioner shall notify the claimant within 90 days after receipt of a completed
application that either the land has or has not been approved for enrollment. A claimant
whose application is denied may appeal the denial as provided in section 290C.13.

(d) Within 90 days after the denial of an application, or within 90 days after the final
resolution of any appeal related to the denial, the commissioner shall execute and
acknowledge a document releasing the land from the covenant required under this chapter.
The document must be mailed to the claimant and is entitled to be recorded.
