(a)
Upon any transfer of real property in the R-O-S, AG, AR, RE, and/or RR zones, the transferor (seller) shall provide a statement advising the buyer of the existence of this law which shall be in substantially the following wording:
PROXIMITY TO AGRICULTURAL AND/OR FORESTRY OPERATIONS: Buyer(s) acknowledge that the property offered for sale is in the vicinity of property that is, or may be used, for agricultural or forestry operations. As such, the Property may be subject to activity including, but not limited to, noise, odor, fumes, insects, dust, chemical application and the operation of machinery at various times. Prince George's County has adopted a right to farm ordinance stipulating that inconveniences or discomforts associated with the agricultural/forestry operation shall not be considered an interference with reasonable use and enjoyment of other properties in the vicinity, if such operations are conducted in accordance with generally accepted agricultural and forestry management practices, as referenced in Prince George's County Code, Section 30-102. The County has established an Agricultural Reconciliation Committee to assist in the resolution of disputes that may arise with regard to agricultural or forestry operations when such operations are not conducted in accordance with generally accepted agricultural or forestry management practices. For further information refer to Prince George's County Code, Subtitle 30, Division 1, and/or contact the Director, Department of Permitting, Inspections, and Enforcement.
