Arkansas Code of 1987 (2023) › Title 15 - NATURAL RESOURCES AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (§§ 15-1-101 — 15-76-324) › Subtitle 2 - LAND AND WATER RESOURCES GENERALLY (§§ 15-20-101 — 15-24-109) › Chapter 20 - GENERAL PROVISIONS (§§ 15-20-101 — 15-20-1406) › Subchapter 6 - ARKANSAS CAVE RESOURCES PROTECTION ACT (§§ 15-20-601 — 15-20-607) › Section 15-20-601 - Legislative findings and policy

The General Assembly finds that caves are uncommon geologic phenomena, and that the minerals deposited therein may be rare and occur in unique forms of great beauty which are irreplaceable if destroyed. Also irreplaceable are the cultural resources in caves which are of great scientific and historic value. It is further found that the organisms which live in caves are unusual and of limited numbers, that many are rare and endangered species, and that caves are a natural conduit for groundwater flow and are highly subject to water pollution, thus having far-reaching effects transcending man-made property boundaries. It is therefore declared to be the policy of the State of Arkansas and the intent of this subchapter to protect these unique natural and cultural resources.

The General Assembly finds that:
(1)
In certain areas of Arkansas, applications of soil nutrients may have resulted or in the future may result in excessive soil nutrient concentration;
(2)
These applications are not the most effective use of nutrients and if continued could negatively impact the area;
(3)
Land application of poultry litter is a significant source of nutrients in these areas; and
(4)
Therefore, in certain areas, it is necessary to limit the application of nutrients and to regulate the utilization of poultry litter to protect the area while maintaining soil fertility.
