In July 2007, North Carolina became the first state in the nation to ban the construction or expansion of new lagoons and sprayfields on swine farms by passing the Swine Farm Environmental Performance Standards Act. The Act also sets strict health and environmental standards for any new waste management systems on swine farms. In addition, the Act establishes a voluntary cost-share program to help swine farmers convert existing lagoons to cleaner systems.

Did Arabic people start the swine flu?

No,there is absolutely no reason to believe that. The Swine Flu (2009 H1N1 influenza virus) is a mutation of a virus that pigs had, the mutation made it able to infect people too. The pigs who first had the flu that evolved into the Swine Flu were in a pig farm in the US, according to investigators tracking the origin of the disease.See the related question below about what caused the swine flu for more information on how it got started.
