Oregon - Mercury collected at area dairies

October 24, 2006

Manometers, devices that measure the pressure in automated milking equipment, are infrequently used anymore in dairy farming. The state of Oregon, however, has instituted a rebate program since they contain the dangerous pollutant mercury.

Although the mercury does not affect milk, it does still have an affect on the environment if broken.

The Department of Environmental Quality has reported 38 turned in manometers.
