On June 28th, the Center for Food Safety and Kupale Ookala filed a lawsuit challenging Idaho-based Big Island Dairy’s unlawful discharge of animal waste under the federal Clean Water Act. The dairy is supposed to store and use all of its animal urine and feces onsite. However, residents of Ookala have witnessed brown murky water smelling of animal feces, tested to contain high levels of dangerous bacteria, flowing from the dairy into local waterways, and ultimately into the Pacific Ocean.

This webinar is your chance to learn more about the situation in Ookala and ask questions from the attorneys involved in the lawsuit.
