Plaintiffs Want Class-Action
Status In Grand Lake Lawsuit

Pryor, Oklahoma -- Lawyers told a judge Tuesday that hundreds -- perhaps thousands -- of property owners along Grand Lake should be added to a lawsuit accusing three Arkansas poultry companies of polluting the water. Mayes County, Oklahoma, District Judge James Goodpaster will decide whether all lakefront property owners can make the same claims of nuisance against Tyson Foods, Simmons Foods and Peterson Farms.
