A la larga, los casos de granjas l\u00e1cteas de la zona de Yakima Valley dieron lugar a un acuerdo hist\u00f3rico anunciado en mayo de 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Como parte del acuerdo, cuatro granjas lecheras del estado de Washington aceptaron implementar cambios radicales en sus operaciones tras una serie de demandas judiciales. Estas granjas hab\u00edan estado contaminando las fuentes de agua locales en la comunidad de Lower Yakima Valley, Washington, vertiendo millones de galones de esti\u00e9rcol almacenado en lagunas sin revestimiento sobre los campos de cultivo. El esti\u00e9rcol hab\u00eda contaminado el suelo y el acu\u00edfero que lo rodea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De acuerdo con los t\u00e9rminos del acuerdo, las lecher\u00edas ahora deben proporcionar agua potable limpia a los residentes del valle de Yakima que tienen agua contaminada. Adem\u00e1s, las lecher\u00edas aceptaron cambiar dr\u00e1sticamente sus operaciones de manera que impidan futuras contaminaciones en el suministro de agua de la zona. Cada lecher\u00eda debe instalar ahora revestimientos dobles en todas las lagunas de esti\u00e9rcol para evitar fugas, limitar las aplicaciones de esti\u00e9rcol en los campos de cultivo y realizar otros cambios operativos. Tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n sujetas a un monitoreo adicional del agua subterr\u00e1nea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El acuerdo se produjo tras una decisi\u00f3n de enero de 2015 que estableci\u00f3, por primera vez, que los esti\u00e9rcoles de los establecimientos ganaderos deb\u00edan regirse como residuos s\u00f3lidos. En esa decisi\u00f3n, el Tribunal sostuvo que la Ley Federal de Conservaci\u00f3n y Recuperaci\u00f3n de Recursos, que regula la eliminaci\u00f3n de residuos s\u00f3lidos y peligrosos, tambi\u00e9n se aplicaba a los residuos de los animales de dichos establecimientos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-farmstand-case-resources farmstand-case-resources\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns post-inline-highlight open is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-a3abbf02 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-dark-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1\">Alegatos de bienhecho<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/farmstand.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Third-Amended-Complaint-against-Cow-Palace-Yakima.pdf\" data-type=\"attachment\" data-id=\"2913\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tercera queja enmiendada contra Cow Palace (Yakima)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/farmstand.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Motion-for-Summary-Judgment-Yakima.pdf\" data-type=\"attachment\" data-id=\"2912\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Procedimiento de Juicio Sumario (Yakima)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/farmstand.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Plaintiffs-Reply-in-Support-of-Motion-for-Summary-Judgment-Yakima.pdf\" data-type=\"attachment\" data-id=\"2911\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Respuesta del demandante en apoyo a la solicitud de fallo sumario (Yakima)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/farmstand.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Order-Granting-in-Part-Motion-for-Summary-Judgment-Yakima.pdf\" data-type=\"attachment\" data-id=\"2910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Decisi\u00f3n otorgando parcialmente la medida cautelar (Yakima)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En octubre de 2012, el Centro para la Seguridad Alimentaria y la Asociaci\u00f3n Comunitaria para la Restauraci\u00f3n del Medio Ambiente (CARE) advirtieron a cuatro granjas industriales de la Valle de Yakima (Washington) que se enfrentar\u00edan a un proceso judicial federal si no cesaban en su contaminaci\u00f3n de las fuentes de agua potable locales con el escorrent\u00eda procedente de sus operaciones l\u00e1cteas...<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"issue":[20,21],"class_list":["post-1698","case","type-case","status-publish","hentry","issue-climate-environmental-protection","issue-farmers-rural-communities"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
