IIRC, in Baltimoron County, MD, one has to pay a licenced or certified
manure removal company to haul it away, and it's against the law to
just let people come and take it for their gardens, saltpeter, etc.
Not sure if the purpose of the law is related to the environment,
special interests (e.g. manure haulers) or the naziland security
rubbish. No real way that I can figure that they can enforce such an
insipid law though. Mountainous amounts can accumulate rather quickly
with only about 15 or so stabled horses.
