SALEM — The U.S. Department of Justice is taking over an embattled Oregon mega-dairy, citing the owner's continued drug use, gambling, out-of-control spending and pending criminal charges.
The Statesman Journal reports Lost Valley Farm, located near Boardman, supplies milk to the Tillamook County Creamery Association, which produces Tillamook Cheese.
It is the second largest dairy in the state.
The 11-square mile dairy has had issues including financial and regulatory problems since it opened over a year ago.
