Factory farming: At issue: Should manure be regulated under the Superfund law?

Article Abstract:

A debate is presented on whether manure should be regulated under the Superfund law. Proponents argue that the waste produced by the 21st century's animal feeding operation is not naturally occurring since it contains trace elements of arsenic and other metals, which are of environmental concern. Opponents, on the other hand, believe that Superfund laws were adopted for the most serious environmental problems and not on hundreds of cattle operations across the U.S.
