Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Counties Code and the Livestock Management  Facilities      
   Act.    Provides that a new livestock management facility or livestock      
   waste  handling facility of 500 or greater animal units may not  begin      
   or  continue    construction  or  expansion or begin operation without      
   approval of the county   board  or  municipal  corporate  authorities.      
   Makes  this  power  of  the  county  board an exception to the general      
   prohibition in the Counties Code against  county  regulation  of  land      
   used for agricultural purposes.  Effective immediately.

   Illinois;  on  small  family  hog  farmers  in  Illinois; and on grain
