Budget Shortfall Consensus revenue estimates recently show that the state is down $159 million than previously predicted. The Governor immediately announced a series of budget cuts and sweeps to fill $124 million – including $47.9 from KDOT. Even with the Governors actions, revenue estimators forecast the state will need to raise $175 million before June 30, 2016. This short fall will have to be accomplished either by additional cuts, sweeps or tax increases.
of their budgets funded with revenues from certain property tax increases. Generally, cities and counties will be authorized to increase property taxes at the rate of inflation and for a number of exempt purposes prior to the triggering of the election mandate. Legislation will be introduced that will move the date of implementation to 2016. This is to prevent counties from raising property taxes prior to the 2018 implementation of the law. Noxious Weed Law KDA plans to reintroduce a bill making changes to the Kansas Noxious Weed Act that is administered by the Kansas Department of Agriculture. Previous bills introduced would remove the state noxious weed list from statute and place it into regulations within a year of enactment. It would also establish the State Noxious Weed Advisory Board to recommend changes to the noxious weed list by using a sciencebased risk assessment. KARA would have a position on that Board. If similar to previously introduced legislation and KARA remains on the board we will support.
Spray Drift There is a possibility spray drift legislation will be introduced again this session. We have meeting with stakeholders and support stepping up education practices. We are also working with KDA and they have communicated that they do not plan to seek any changes to regulatory or statutory policies regarding Ag Tax Policy Several bills were introduced last session that targeted current applications. We will continue to educate agribusiness.

Agricultural Retailers Association The Environmental Protection Agency issued a Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt on December 9 asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review memorandum to all Regional Administrators and a lower court decision regarding the Environmental Offices to establish policy on the effect of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's Protection Agency’s efforts to dictate how states change to the retail exemption under the Process regulate runoff from sources such as farmland, Safety Management. construction sites, and urban areas. Schmidt led a bipartisan group of 22 state attorneys general in filing a brief asking the Court to take up the case after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit upheld the EPA's effort to impose detailed nutrient and sediment runoff limits on states in the Chesapeake Bay region under the guise of setting the total maximum daily load (TMDL) for those pollutants.
The memo EPA indicates that impacted agricultural retail facilities will be required to submit RMP updates to the agency by January 22, 2017, six months after OSHA's announced enforcement date of July 22, 2016.
The memo states: "When effective, this change will result in several thousand facilities that had been eligible for the retail exemption under OSHA's previous interpretation becoming subject to the PSM “This case has never been about one geographic standard. Most of these facilities were already subject region or one particular plan to manage runoff,” to the EPA Risk Management Program regulations Schmidt said. “The issue is whether the EPA can 40 CFR Part 68, but due to their exemption from expand its authority under the Clean Water Act to PSM, were generally subject to RMP Program 2 micromanage how states meet federal water-quality standards. Ultimately, this is about whether a federal requirements. As a result of OSHA's action, formerly Program 2 facilities are no longer exempt from the agency has the authority to upend state and local PSM standard will become subject to the more economies by telling states – and ultimately stringent Program 3 requirements." In the event that landowners – how to use their land and natural OSHA rescinds (or is ordered by a court to rescind) resources. We believe the EPA has exceeded its authority and our nation’s highest court should be the its interpretation, this memo is also rescinded. one to ultimately decide this case.” Kansas filed the brief in American Farm Bureau Federation, et al., v. United States Environmental Protection Agency, et al., Case No. 15-599. Kansas is supporting the plaintiffs – the American Farm Bureau Federation and others – in asking the Supreme Court to hear the case and reverse the 3rd Circuit’s decision. States joining the Kansas-led brief were Indiana, Missouri, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Agricultural Retailers Association Congress just put the brakes on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's regulatory overreach. On July 22, OSHA released an enforcement memorandum rescinding all prior policy documents, letters of interpretation, and memoranda related to the retail exemption to Process Safety Management, a set of procedural, operational and organizational design standards intended to prevent the release of highly hazardous chemicals at manufacturing facilities. The memo, released without opportunity for public comment and outside of the formal rulemaking process, would force virtually all
agricultural retailers that store and sell anhydrous ammonia to comply with PSM. "OSHA is misguided in trying to apply PSM to ag retailers," said Harold Cooper, ARA Chairman and CEO of Premier Ag Cooperative in Columbus, Ind. "OSHA intentionally exempted ag retailers from PSM since the rule's inception in 1992. Forcing us to comply with regulations aimed at manufacturers would cost my business at least $60,000, and not provide any improvement in worker safety - just more bureaucratic red tape."
In an effort to help support growth in agriculture, the Kansas Department of Agriculture is calling on industry partners to help identify workforce needs among agricultural employers in the state by conducting the first Kansas Agriculture Workforce Needs Assessment Survey.
Kansas agribusinesses, manufacturers and producers of agricultural products are all being asked to complete the survey to help KDA identify the In recognition of OSHA's unlawful attempt to revoke number and types of jobs, and specific skills required the long-standing retailer exemption from the costly for those jobs in agriculture.

KDA is focused on serving Kansas farmers, ranchers, agribusinesses and the consumers/customers they serve. A current priority is growing agriculture in the state, eliminating barriers to growth, developing workforce and building marketing activities in-state, out-of-state and globally.
