Michigan dairy CAFO pays 33k to settle river pollution case
A Calhoun County dairy farm, Holloo Farms LLC near Marshall, Michigan, has settled a four-year legal battle over polluting the Kalamazoo River watershed. The farm will pay $32,907 and install groundwater monitoring wells to resolve allegations of improper livestock waste handling and manure spreading dating back to 2004, which led to contaminated runoff and the risk of E. coli contamination. The settlement, approved February 13, 2026, mandates quarterly groundwater sampling for one year to address these ongoing environmental concerns.
