EPA-funded billboards attacking farmers coming down

A What’s Upstream billboard in Olympia came down Wednesday, and a second one in Bellingham was expected to be removed, a day after the Environmental Protection Agency said the media campaign was an inappropriate use of federal funds that were awarded to a tribe for public education.

Swinomish Indian tribe environmental policy director Larry Wasserman said the tribe is taking down the billboards voluntarily.
