Subject: Update on French Creek lawsuit -- appeal to be heard July 16


The French Creek case is scheduled for oral argument before the Iowa Supreme
Court on July 16, at 9:00 am.  The court is located at 111 East Court Avenue
in Des Moines.  The argument will be open to the public.

This case concerns a CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operation) in
northeast Iowa that Sierra Club believes is polluting French Creek, a prime
trout fishing stream.

We are also challenging the Iowa DNR policy of not requiring NPDES permits
(National Pollution Discharge permits) for CAFO's.
