   H.   State Permits: Before the land use authority, as applicable, approves a permitted (P) use application, conditional (C-1) use application or conditional (C-2) use application to establish and/or operate any AFO, the owner shall obtain all of the necessary permits and licenses, as required by the state of Utah.
   I.   Notification: Before a land use application to establish or operate a level 3 AFO is determined complete by the county planner, the applicant shall provide evidence that the following Utah state agencies have been notified either in writing, or have been furnished a copy of the land use application:

   J.   Minimum Design And Operational Requirements: In addition to minimum separation distances, the design and management practices of all AFOs can significantly influence the effects such facilities have on other land uses.
      1.   It shall be unlawful to operate any AFO without obtaining the necessary land use application approval as required by this section and this ordinance.
      2.   It shall be unlawful to operate any AFO in violation of any requirement or condition of approval or any other federal or state requirement.
      3.   It shall be unlawful to operate any AFO without the necessary state of Utah permits and licenses, or in noncompliance with such permits or licenses.
   K.   Incompatible Uses: If any non-AFO, or incompatible land use locates within the required separation distances of any AFO as set forth herein, or if any such non-AFO locates within a separation distance which the AFO would be required to maintain if it were designed for a greater number of animal units, the non-AFO may not maintain an action for nuisance or to compel the county to enforce this section with respect to the AFO. Further, the separation distance requirements for AFOs set forth in this section shall be determined at the time the AFO is permitted and shall not apply to other uses that encroach on the AFO after the AFO has been issued a valid land use permit.
