(H) Any person who sustains, stores, manages or receives agricultural by-products or other waste materials generated as a result of the operation of any agricultural property or produce processing plant shall do so in such a manner as to prevent the spread of disease, the occurrence of excessive vectors, odor, dust, or feathers or other such adverse conditions related to the public health and well-being. In addition:

(b) The determination of the presence of excessive vectors shall be made by an Enforcement Agency or the Department.
(c) The determination of the presence of excessive vectors shall take into account the proximity of the agricultural operation to neighboring human habitation and use areas, the population density of the entire area and the severity of the public health/well-being hazard posed by said vectors.
