This bill establishes a moratorium on the registration of new poultry feeding operations in Oklahoma, effective from November 1, 2025. The Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry is tasked with implementing this moratorium and is authorized to conduct inspections and reviews of existing poultry feeding operations. If any existing operations are found to be in violation of regulations, the Department will cease registration and revoke certifications or licenses as necessary. The bill also allows the Department to promulgate rules to facilitate the implementation of these provisions.

Additionally, the bill includes a specific moratorium on new concentrated animal feeding operations licenses for poultry feeding operations that do not require registration. Similar to the previous section, existing licenses are exempt from this moratorium, but the Department retains the authority to inspect and investigate these operations. If violations are found, the Department can revoke licenses and will not reissue them if they have been revoked. The bill aims to regulate and oversee poultry feeding operations more effectively while ensuring compliance with existing laws.
