December 17, 2010, Grand
Forks, MN – The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s Citizens Advisory Board
has unanimously denied an appeal of its earlier decision not to reissue a permit
to Thief River Falls dairy, which was declared a public health hazard in 2008.
However, some questions

when Excel removed the cows from the facility after repeated violations of
state pollution control and air quality standards.
