Nutrient Management Legislation Maryland: Water Qual. Imp. Act, 1998 NMP - 8 AU P-Based – Chemical Fertilizer 12/31/02 P-Based – Manure/Biosolids 7/01/04 Delaware: Delaware Nutrient Mgmt. Law, 1999 NMP - 8 AU or owns/leases/controls - 10 ac P-Based – P appl. to high P soils cannot exceed 3-yr crop removal rate Virginia: Poultry Waste Mgmt. Act, 1999 NMP – 200 AU P-Based – 10/01/01 P rates – not exceed crop needs or crop removal
