Removing poultry waste
Following Oklahoma's federal court lawsuit over poultry waste pollution, more of the waste is being removed from the Illinois River watershed...The Morning News articel 5/30/09

SPRINGDALE — Each year roughly 238 million chickens are raised and slaughtered in Benton and Washington counties leaving behind as much as 572 million pounds of litter — deemed trash by some and treasure by others.

That's enough litter to fill 12,435 semi-trailer trucks lined up from Rogers to Fort Smith and back.
