TROY, N.Y. â The Rensselaer County Legislature Minority Office filed a local law recently to establish an animal abuse registry in Rensselaer County. Along with Albany County, Rensselaer County will join 20 other New York State (NYS) counties in the fight to end the serious problem of animal cruelty that continues to happen in NYS.
âThis legislation will establish an online registry for individuals who are convicted of animal abuse and neglect,â Democratic Minority Leader Peter Grimm said.
âIt is in the best interest of our residents and their animals that an online registry be established identifying individuals, living in Rensselaer County,â Grimm explained.
FOND DU LAC - A Malone dairy farm has been ordered by pay $60,000 for violating the state’s wastewater discharge laws.
Redtail Ridge Dairy in northeast Fond du Lac County, owned by Joe and Diane Thome, must pay costs to remedy the adverse effects of polluted discharges to the tributaries of the Sheboygan River, including the cost of replacing fish or other wildlife destroyed by the discharge, according to the Wisconsin Attorney General s Office.
The case was settled before it went to trial in the courtroom of Fond du Lac Circuit Court Judge Peter Grimm, who issued the fines earlier this month. Grimm found the dairy guilty of three violations: manure ponding on application site, manure runoff from site and manure discharge to waters through subsurface drains.
