Abstract:	This paper will look at the use and regulation of biosolids on farmland in America. I will detail the history behind biosolids and its utilization as fertilizer. I will also examine the scant legislative oversight over this industry, and demonstrate why the federal government should do more to regulate biosolids in the interest of public health and general well-being. Special attention will be given to California, including a detailed description from one Californian farmer on his sludge-farming experience.
