The informal meetings start Monday in Glenwood to cover proposed changes in large feedlot permits. An official public comment period opens later this year.
More than 1,000 large farm operations in the state have permits under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System.
Changes would affect the way farmers can use manure, dispose of dead animals and handle runoff water. They would start in 2011.
Upcoming meetings are in Blooming Prairie, Jackson, Redwood Falls, Detroit Lakes and Mankato.
