An Oregon Company Files a $14 Million Breach of Contract Lawsuit Against a Mega Dairy Plant
The company that bought a troubled mega dairy plant in northern Oregon several years ago may be ready to give up their efforts toward reopening it, according to new documents that show repeated setbacks.
Easterday Dairy has been repeatedly cited for failing to bring nitrate levels in water at the site east of Portland in Boardman under control, even without cattle, The Tri-City Herald reported.
Now Easterday is suing the former owners for breach of contract, saying it’s their fault site cleanup hasn’t been accomplished. Easterday Dairy is asking for millions in damages or to be released from the purchase agreement.
