DFA says suit unfounded

A southwest Missouri town has filed another lawsuit against Dairy Farmers America over wastewater emissions that DFA says is unfounded.

The city of Cabool requests more than a million dollars from DFA and an order to not to pollute the nearby Big Piney River.

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources last year found the DFA plant in violation of its treatment permit and ordered changes.

A statement from Dairy Farmers of America, provided to Brownfield, says they “do not believe the problems with the city’s wastewater facilities fall squarely on DFA” while implementing improvements in its wastewater system.

DFA says it’s been in regular communication with the city of Cabool and hopes to find a “fair and equitable resolution.”
