....... thinking that person/people would never be heard from again

The article is talking about a large scale feedlot storing hay properly. I'm sure there is more to the story than what is being bandied by the ag press and certain special interest groups. It's likely the feedlot was cited for large amounts of old hay causing runoff to exceed prescribed nutrient levels.
