Contact your county commissioner, invite them to your home for a smell test. If there's possibility fecal matter is getting into a salmon stream the Department of Ecology should be advised. Don't expect quick results. Public nuisances created by " hostile and aggressive" people are difficult to abate.

My parents were having some issues with their neighbors unlicensed junkyard. The county needs multiple complaints from multiple neighbors. When enough people start to call in the problem, it gets in their radar and becomes an issue for them to address because it’s effecting multiple people. I think they needed like a minimum of 3 or 4 different complaints.

They cannot dump animal waste into that creek, unincorporated or not.

Look up the property zoning and what is allowed. If it's something like Exclusive Farm Use then there might not be anything that can be done; if it's something like Rural Residential then there might be certain applicable limits to such farm animals.

Edit: spelling

Contact whoever would be the most pissed off that he is polluting the creek with animal waste, and ask them to investigate, giving permissions to be on your land. That sounds awful. Good luck

I would contact animal control for your county and then I would contact Dept of Fish and Wildlife. You have to document document document everything. If that flock of ducks has Avian Flu and he's not being responsible about it, Dept Of Fish and Wildlife can encourage him to speed up the process.

Which country? Pretty much all of them still have limits on the number of animals you can have, and general nuisance laws still apply as well.

Loved you in M.A.S.H. Good luck with the shitty neighbor.

I see others have already suggested it, but definitely contact fish and wildlife and dnr if it looks like there is direct run off into the creek. Also, unincorporated areas of a county are still under a county government. Contact your county offices to find out who/which department you should talk to. If they're anything like Whatcom County, they'll be interested in knowing about any real or perceived threats to protected waterways/wetland areas.

Im sure in that communist state you can probably have him shot! No, wait cant have guns there...Maybe you can hang him. Seriously who was there first? he is entitled to do whatever he want on his property if it is zoned for it. I've never really understood why someone wants to live on larger lots then complains because the neighbors have livestock... Now, dont go all WOKE on me this is just my opinion as you are entitled to yours.

Really depends on which county.

Hillbilly like living? Not much you can do. If your hoa is active you can try to fine them for violations but that's about it. You can always call the pd non emergency number and request a health and wellness check up. Keep in mind when you live on a farm you also have to deal with animals as well.

Write to your house district representative, they may be able to provide direction on the best agency reporting approach.

It is odd that the county did not react to NGPA land having trees cut down. Most of those areas are on unincorporated county land so who does the county say is responsible?

Unfortunately, Washington's farmers have gotten the legislature to enact a law protecting them from suits for creating a nuisance. It's RCW 7.48, and reads, in part:

>(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, agricultural activities conducted on farmland and forest practices, if consistent with good agricultural and forest practices and established prior to surrounding nonagricultural and nonforestry activities, are presumed to be reasonable and shall not be found to constitute a nuisance unless the activity or practice has a substantial adverse effect on public health and safety.

(2) Agricultural activities and forest practices undertaken in conformity with all applicable laws and rules are presumed to be good agricultural and forest practices not adversely affecting the public health and safety for purposes of this section and RCW 7.48.300. An agricultural activity that is in conformity with such laws and rules shall not be restricted as to the hours of the day or day or days of the week during which it may be conducted.

This doesn't mean they get off scot free. Their operations have to be consistent with good agricultural practices. And if your neighbor is polluting a creek, he's not exempt. I'd suggest you collect several water samples from the creek, at different times and locations along and downstream from his operation. If you can afford to have a lab test them yourselves, do it. If not, ask the county to do so. If this is really a salmon stream, you might consider contacting an environmental group like the Wild Fish Conservancy and asking whether they're interested in helping.

Or, another approach would be for you to take up falconry. Birds of prey just love fresh chicken.

Perhaps the Health Department can help?

you can contact https://pugetsoundkeeper.org/ if your neighbor is dumping into the creek

Start raising raccoons and then leave the pen open at night. All chickens will disappear within a week.
