A licensed individual must file an activity report with the department how often?

A licensed individual is required to file an activity report annually with the department. This requirement is designed to ensure that nutrient management practices are being implemented effectively and that they comply with regulations intended to protect water quality and promote sustainable agricultural practices. By filing annually, the department can monitor nutrient application rates, assess compliance with nutrient management plans, and evaluate the overall effectiveness of nutrient management efforts over an entire growing season. This frequency balances the need for oversight with the administrative burden on licensed individuals, allowing enough time for the assessment of practices while ensuring timely reporting of activities and outcomes.
