The Vermont attorney general's office is suing a dairy farm in Coventry accusing it of violating the state's water pollution laws.
The lawsuit filed in Vermont Superior Court in Orleans County says Richard Nelson's farm is discharging agricultural runoff from its bunker silos into a stream.
The lawsuit is seeking an injunction against Nelson and civil penalties.
The attorney general's office says Nelson has not responded to the allegations. Nelson says he is no longer operating the dairy farm.
