At the last LRA meeting there was a big up cry about the smells from the tip and its impact on the local area. As such it was decided to form a sub-committee with a direct focus on the tip. It is early days for this just yet but updates will be posted as things happen. This group will also look to work with related groups in the area, e.g. Hampton Park Progress Association.
Recently there was a community meeting about SITA's proposed Advanced Waste Treatment (SAWT) facility. At that meeting I was approached by Michael O'Keeffe, SITA's Post Collection Manager to ask how the last few days were. I told him that they were terrible. He did say that SITA was aware and had been working hard to fix the problem. I explained that it wasn't any good if they didn't tell people that A) they were aware there was an issue and B) what they were doing about it. He has since been keeping me informed of their progress.
Please see the "Read more" section for further information from SITA and from EPA.
