21. The bedding and the solid phase of manure shall be stacked to heat. Unless otherwise directed by the Scottish Ministers this shall be achieved by adding 100kg granulated quick lime to each 1m3 of material. The stack shall be heated to a temperature of at least 70°C throughout, sprayed with disinfectant and left for at least 42 days. During this period the stack shall either be covered or re-stacked so as to ensure thermic treatment of all layers.S
