The Department of Agriculture (USDA) must certify technologies that:    eliminate animal discharge into surface waters and groundwater through direct discharge, seepage, or runoff; substantially eliminate atmospheric emissions of ammonia from swine waste;   substantially eliminate the emission of odor from swine waste that is detectable beyond the boundaries of the parcel or tract of land on which the swine farm is located;   substantially eliminate the release of disease-transmitting vectors and airborne pathogens from swine waste;   substantially eliminate nutrient and heavy metal contamination of soil and groundwater from swine waste; and   are cost-effective.   States may not issue permits, pursuant to any federal law, to a swine farm that is a concentrated animal feeding operation unless the farm disposes of swine waste using a certified technology.  The bill amends several agricultural laws to:   require USDA to make competitive grants for activities to identify, evaluate, and demonstrate environmentally superior swine waste management technologies;   permit the Pork Promotion Board to use its funding for activities related to the grants; and  make the installation and maintenance of a certified technology on a swine farm eligible for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program.  The bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow tax credits for: (1) the installation of a certified swine waste disposal technology, and (2) the disposal of swine waste using certified technology.", "2023-01-11T13:33:55Z", null]], "columns": ["bill_id", "congress", "bill_type", "bill_number", "title", "policy_area", "introduced_date", "latest_action_date", "latest_action_text", "origin_chamber", "sponsor_name", "sponsor_state", "sponsor_party", "sponsor_bioguide_id", "cosponsor_count", "summary_text", "update_date", "url"], "primary_keys": ["bill_id"], "primary_key_values": ["114-hr-6483"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.3977779997512698, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
