In many cases, manure spill violators have multiple offenses and face very few real consequences.
The fines are laughably small. Sometimes, there isn't even a fine if there is an "emergency"
The requested improvements are years late.
They get to keep "feeding and fueling the world"

In the last decade, Iowa had nearly 200 manure spills and collectively the fines only added up to $636,808.
And these are only the spills we know about since they're self-reporting...
