According to reports, Tyson’s former director of environmental agriculture was questioned in court regarding the company's concern about pollution issues, as part of an ongoing trial against several poultry companies brought by the state of Oklahoma.
A state attorney questioned the former Tyson executive, Preston Keller, about a training presentation, which stressed the importance of positive company image. The state asserts the presentation shows the company was more concerned with public relations than preventing pollution flowing into the Illinois River watershed.
The companies maintain no laws were broken as they were issued permits to dispose waste as field fertilizer.
