SIERRA CLUB v. SEABOARD FARMS, INC. FILED United States Court of Appeals 1000 Tenth Circuit OCT 28 2004 PATRICK FISHER Clerk PUBLISH UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS TENTH CIRCUIT SIERRA CLUB, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. No. 03-6104 SEABOARD FARMS INC. and SEABOARD CORPORATION, Delaware corporations, and SHAWNEE FUNDING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware partnership, Defendants-Appellees.

CERCLA's statutory definition of this term is somewhat turbid, but, when read with other provisions nearby, is unambiguous. The district court found that the term "facility" should be narrowly construed so as to apply to each individ...
