Livestock care board creates interactive Web site

Columbus, Ohio

-- The newly created Ohio Livestock Care Standards Board created a new Web site,

www.ohiolivestockcarestandardsboard.org

, to keep the public informed on new policies and board meetings.

Visitors to the site will be able to submit comments directly to the board. A new issue to face Ohio voters this November will be another provision that would outline what types of animal welfare objectives the new board should be addressing. The board was created in November 2009 through a state ballot measure.
