Guidelines for Dry Muck Out
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
For a dry muck-out operation to be effective, the following general principles should be adhered to:
(a) Dry removal of livestock waste as much as is possible to minimize the quantity of residual livestock waste to be washed or hosed out. This is very important, otherwise highly polluted wastewater may result from washing or hosing out, and this will shorten the service life of a soakaway system.
(b) Minimizing the amount of water used in washing or hosing out the residual livestock waste.
(c) Provision of a sufficient number of storage containers.
