Wisconsin dairy farm fined $209,641.47 for violating wastewater laws at a CAFO with expired permit.

A Wisconsin dairy farm owned by Phil Mlsna and Mlsna Dairy Supply Inc. has been fined $209,641.47 for violating state wastewater laws at their concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO). The WPDES permit expired in 2015, leading to years of unpermitted operation and non-compliance with laws other legally permitted CAFOs must follow. The farm also constructed a sand separation system without approved plans and specifications.
