Description
INTRODUCTION The production and processing of food involves byproducts that may create problems if not handled appropriately. Manure, poultry litter, and process wastewater are major byproducts of raising animals for food. (1) Historically, nuisance causes of action were employed to alleviate conditions related to the inappropriate disposal of animal wastes. (2) Common law causes of action, however, did not lead to the cessation of annoyances and discomforts associated with some activities. (3) In a case seeking relief from offensive odors from a poultry slaughtering plant, the Iowa Supreme Court found that the facility was not a nuisance per se, and that it could continue with its operations if it took certain remedial actions to reduce odors. (4) The court observed that the squeals of pigs and odors arising from chickens do not constitute nuisances. (5) Another case decided that a total injunction of any release of dirty water was too broad. (6) Nuisances could not be precluded unless they caused substantial injury to the party seeking relief. (7) Common law causes of action also generally could not grant relief from a nuisance before injury occurs. (8)
