EPA v. Logue Swine Farm General Partnership

Case summary

The Animal Feeding Operation (AFO) Air Compliance Agreement is EPA's voluntary consent agreement to minimize emissions from certain AFOs and to ensure those operations comply with the Clean Air Act (CAA), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), and the Emergency Planning Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA). Participating AFOs pay a civil penalty based on size and number of farms to resolve potential past and current liabliity under the CAA, CERCLA, and EPCRA and contribute to a fund that will cover a two-year, nationwide monitoring study of AFO air emissions.
