		Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson has asked the federal district court to allow him to test soil, poultry litter and water running off of fields in the Illinois River watershed for a variety of possible pollutants including arsenic, zinc, hormones and bacteria.

		Edmondson filed the motion Wednesday afternoon in a pollution lawsuit against 14 poultry companies.

		If Edmondson is successful, poultry litter, a natural organic fertilizer, could be declared a hazardous waste and bring on a new era of intense regulation for farmers who have followed the state and federal laws in using poultry litter, Wilkerson said.
