Jean LeFleur, owner of Happy Feet, a company that makes environmentally-sensitive foot wear, decided to move operations from Los Angeles to Bozeman, Montana. LeFleur wanted to be in an area noted for environmental quality. He built a new plant that produced oil-based sludge from its production process. The sludge could have been treated at the plant.

During the course of its construction, Happy Feet disrupts and largely destroys the habitat of the extremely rare Montana kuhl. This action may subject Happy Feet to a lawsuit under:
