Question 15936 — breeding

Summary

Mrs. Véronique Ludmann draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and Persons with Disabilities to a problem encountered by professional racehorse trainers, particularly in the trotting and galloping disciplines, concerning the application of the departmental health regulations relating to the installation of manure beds. In the current state of the regulations, manure must be located at a distance minimum distance of 50 meters from any dwelling. While this requirement can be justified in a rural context or for certain agricultural sectors, it is difficult to apply to racehorse stables, often located in urban or peri-urban areas, in the immediate vicinity of residential areas, as is the case in the Oise department and more particularly around Chantilly. Equine manure is distinguished from bovine manure due to its dry, low-odor nature and much lower health risks. In addition, horse manure is subject to rigorous maintenance and is emptied very regularly, on average every eight days, which greatly limits any potential nuisance for the neighborhood. In this context, many stables, sometimes historic, find themselves in a situation of infringement or unable to operate. normally, due to lack of adaptation of the regulatory framework to the reality of their activity. Also, she would like to know if the Government plans to introduce a regulatory adaptation or a specific tolerance for equine manure, taking into account the particularities of the horse racing industry and the constraints of establishment in an urbanized environment.
