摘要

The biosolids industry is scrambling to assess the financial risk from a growing number of tort suits challenging land applications of biosolids that plaintiffs are filing in state courts as federal courts are rejecting industry defenses that EPA regulations allowing the controversial practice preempt the tort suits. The new tort challenges-some of which are being brought by high-profile trial lawyers-are the "most serious threat to date" to the common practice of reusing treated sewage sludge as fertilizer,James Slaughter,an industry attorney told a conference sponsored by the National Association of Clean Water Agencies Nov.13. The group,which represents publicly owned wastewater treatment facilities,strongly backs the disposal practice as a safe and inexpensive way to dispose of millions of tons of solid waste.But food safety and other public health groups say the disposal practice contaminates food and runoff from the land contaminates nearby waters.
