August 14, 2006: Citing possible harm to Hawaiis 329 endangered and threatened species, a federal district judge ruled that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) violated the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in permitting the cultivation of drug-producing, genetically engineered crops throughout Hawaii. The court found that USDA acted in utter disregard of the ESA, and also violated the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), by failing to conduct even preliminary investigations prior to its approval of the plantings. news9/story/5279108/first-ever-federal-court-ruling-on-controversial-drug-producing-ge-crops-manufactured-by-monsanto-and-others
