To Mike Cooper, and fellow beekeepers,

Mike, does this goat dairy produce milk only, or is cheese made there?  If
cheese is a major product of this dairy, the waste whey may be thrown out
on the ground.  Whey (and milk) contains lactose which is toxic to bees.

Solutions:
Dispose of the whey on the ground where it will soak in and not puddle.
Dispose of the whey in the sewer or septic system if allowable.
Feed the whey to hogs.  Recycling is an "organic" principle.  :)

Cheers,
Kyle
