Lawsuit revived over alleged oyster impacts from dairies

An oyster company can revive its lawsuit over pollution rules in Oregon’s Tillamook Bay after the state Court of Appeals decided the case was wrongly dismissed.

The Hayes Oyster Co.’s complaint against the Oregon Department of Agriculture was dismissed for procedural reasons last year.

The case is part of the company’s long-running battle with state authorities over regulations for fecal coliform bacteria in the region, which allegedly hinder oyster harvests due to food safety concerns.
