Hi all,

It goes without saying (and shall go unchallenged) that there is no greater
authority on Waste Management than the state of OHIO .. therefore, forthwith
& for evermore .. here is Bulletin 604a titled {Ohio Manure And Wastewater
Management Guide}

Part 1 .. Controlling Odors

}  Odors can be a nuisance to producers and cause complaints by neighbors.
}  Odors from confinement buildings can be a significant nuisance.
}  The spreading of manure on crop land or pasture can be a source of odors.
}  The number of dead animals or birds in a confinement facility poses a
different odor management problem.

Control of Odors .. Site Selection

Four factors must be considered
    Isolation of the facility site
    Direction and distance to neighbors
    Prevailing wind direction
    Air drainage

If the stored waste pH is below 6.5, add lye (NaOH) or hydrated lime
(Ca(OH)2) at a rate of 1 pound per 1,000 cubic feet daily until the pH rises
to 6.7 or above. The lye or lime should be spread over the entire surface or
mixed into the wastes. Some producers have blown chopped straw on the waste
surface, which helped to initiate a crust.
