		Ocean Spray is tapping into a unique source of energy to power its new manufacturing operation here: methane gas from the nearby landfill.
		With Ocean Spray literally tapping that gas to power its boilers, greenhouse emissions from the landfill will be reduced by nearly 7,000 tons a year, with environmental benefits equivalent to planting 15,000 trees or removing carbon monoxide emissions from 12,000 cars.
		Ocean Spray and Onyx are investing a combined total of more than $2 million in the project.

	Ocean Spray v Pespi
		Ocean Spray seizes on this (occasionally hedged) concession to argue that the only remaining issue is irreparable injury; it assumes that the equities are favorable to it (Pepsi's breach being deliberate), and that the public interest is served by forcing businesses to adhere to their contracts.
		Ocean Spray's affidavit also makes a plausible case that, to the extent that Pepsi does slacken its efforts to promote Ocean Spray's covered products during the remaining (probably brief) life of the 1998 agreement, the impact could go beyond the loss of sales and profits.
		Ocean Spray points to cases in which the courts have granted injunctions merely to prevent conduct creating a risk that confidential information will be divulged or misused.

		Ocean Spray's management and board of directors will try to convince growers to "stay the course" of the cooperative's turnaround plan by voting for their slate of directors.
		Ocean Spray spokesman Chris Phillips said management and the board of directors have an obligation to explain why the company's turnaround plan, launched in the fall of 1999 with the decision to hire chief executive and President Robert Hawthorne, should be allowed to continue.
		Ocean Spray and its current board of directors will make the case that staying the course, and appointing its slate of directors — three incumbents and a new member — would be better than appointing the four new members brought forward by the dissident grower/owners.

	Sunmark, Inc. v. Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc.
		Ocean Spray Cranberries produces a variety of sugar-flavored cranberry juice drinks that they often advertise as tasting sweet and tart--or "sweet-tart." For want of a conjunction, Sunmark prays for an injunction; unhappy with the hyphenated version of the description, it has sued under the Lanham Act and the Illinois Anti-Dilution Act.
		Instead the question is whether Ocean Spray has used "sweet-tart" descriptively, for a drink that has elements of both sweetness (it is sugared) and tartness (it is based on cranberries).
		If Ocean Spray were to advertise its candy as "sweet-tart"--or if there were evidence, which the record does not contain, that consumers have become confused about the source of Ocean Spray Fruit Waves--Sunmark would have a strong claim for relief.

		At Ocean Spray, for example, all major decisions, such as the Pepsi deal, must be put to a vote of the growers.
