Esta exclusi\u00f3n perjudic\u00f3 a las comunidades que viven cerca de estos CAFO de tama\u00f1o medio, que son instalaciones industriales para la cr\u00eda de ganado que pueden albergar hasta 125.000 pollos, 55.000 pavos, 2.500 cerdos, 1.000 vacas lecheras o 700 vacas lecheras, exponiendo a las comunidades vecinas a olores penetrantes, gases nocivos, v\u00edas fluviales contaminadas y m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">En 2019, una coalici\u00f3n de grupos present\u00f3 una demanda contra el USDA por no proporcionar una notificaci\u00f3n p\u00fablica adecuada ni una justificaci\u00f3n basada en pruebas para la exenci\u00f3n. As\u00ed, los grupos argumentaron que el USDA viol\u00f3 la Ley Nacional de Pol\u00edtica Ambiental y la Ley de Procedimiento Administrativo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hoy, el tribunal de distrito se pronunci\u00f3 a favor de los grupos comunitarios, dictaminando que el USDA hab\u00eda otorgado exenciones arbitrarias a los principales contaminadores y que los granjas intensivas de tama\u00f1o mediano deb\u00edan someterse a la misma supervisi\u00f3n que las grandes antes de recibir fondos p\u00fablicos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">En el caso, el USDA admiti\u00f3 que la agencia no hab\u00eda notificado ni recibido comentarios antes de crear la exenci\u00f3n, pero pidi\u00f3 al tribunal que ignorara el error. Durante los cinco a\u00f1os que ha estado pendiente el caso, la agencia no ha ofrecido mecanismos para recabar la opini\u00f3n de la comunidad o pruebas de que los CAFO de tama\u00f1o medio no tienen impacto ambiental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Animal Legal Defense Fund, Association of Irritated Residents, Citizens Action Coalition, Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement, el Instituto para la Pol\u00edtica Agraria y Comercial y Food &amp; Water Watch est\u00e1n representados por ALDF, Public Justice y Citizens Action Coalition.
