What is the proper way to dispose of large dead animals?
The County does not currently have a comprehensive policy covering the disposal of large dead animals. On-site burial is allowed on a case-by-case basis when impacts to public health are insignificant. When there are potential impacts to public health involved in on-site burial, such as when there is high groundwater, or parcel size does not allow adequate setback from nearby water wells, there are other options. Some landfills in the county will dispose of large dead animals, or a renderer can be called for pick-up.
