I have a dairy farm right next door to me. Good neighbors for the most part, and we get along well. I have a problem though. There is a small creek that runs across both properties.
This has happened twice now....there is a milky horrible smelling runoff coming from his property down this creek and onto my property.
Previously I just plowed shut the mouth of my end of the culvert and that stopped it for a while, but with heavy rains, it has opened up again.
I have half a mind to just not say anything and fill that culvert with cement, but I think that will just be a band aid.
I don't mind farm smells (even liquid manure doesn't bother me too much), but this is not a farm smell. I have two small children and am afraid of them going near this substance.
Suggestions on how to handle this would be apprecitated.
My plan is to go to the neighbor and tell him my concerns, but if he shrugs it off...who should I call next? I worry about getting the EPA out there and them finding something else wrong that will cost big $ to fix.
