Hl»glghts of the proposed legislation include: 0Development of an awareness campaign to edu- cate potential rural property buyers of the normal farm practices which may occur in the area * Expanding the definition of agricultural operations to Include more agricultural activities, value-added oper- ations and future innovative operations a Expanding jurisdiction for the new Normal Farm Practices Protection Board to include complaînts about llght, vibration, files and smoke resulting froma agricul- tural actlvlty. The Board would retain jurisdlctlon for noise, odour and dust comn- plaints -Takçlng necessary steps to ensue municipalities take normal farm practices into account when consldering by- laws -Mhe Act will proteet farm practices that are consldered normal and does not override provincial legisiation that pro- tects health, safety and the environment," noted Mr. OToole.
