MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has withdrawn a water-pollution order against a West Virginia chicken farmer who countered the threat of hefty fines by suing the agency over new rules aimed at cleaning up the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

Charleston attorney David Yaussy said Friday that the EPA recently withdrew its order against his client, Eight Is Enough operator Lois Alt, after reviewing what he called minor changes to her Hardy County operation. Among other things, he said, they are now moving manure by conveyor instead of hand-loading it out.
