Where are the VAD & EVAD Districts located?

Why are these mapped?

These Districts have been developed and mapped by the County to inform all purchasers of real property that certain agricultural and forestry activities, including but not limited to pesticide spraying, manure spreading, machinery and truck operation, livestock operations, sawing, and other common farming activities may occur in these Districts any time during the day or night.

​
