A company that owns and operates a cheese production facility in Turtle Lake, has agreed to pay $150,000 in a settlement.

Lake Country Dairy, Incorporated was charged with failing to properly manage its discharges of wastewater into the Village of Turtle Lake Wastewater Treatment Plant since 2006. According to the complaint, Lake Country Dairy's discharges threatened the fish populations and aquatic vegetation in the Red Cedar River.

The company has since installed a PH equalization system. As part of the settlement, Lake Country Dairy agreed to provide the village with projections of its wastewater volume and strength.
