Des Moines River fish kill from May manure spill near Estherville
About 33 500 fish valued near 9000 dollars were killed in two streams after a May 24 cattle manure spill from John Greig’s Estherville livestock facility. Brown Creek damming and ammonia caused part of the loss. West Fork deaths rose downstream from the spill. The incident prompted penalties and ongoing probe, with Greig ordered to cover fish value.
