New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Basil Seggos today announced that at DEC’s direction, SA Dunn & Company is undertaking new actions to improve operations and reduce impacts on the surrounding community. These comprehensive actions, including enhanced odor control measures and deployment of DEC monitoring equipment to analyze odors and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), building on the state’s ongoing, rigorous monitoring of this landfill operation to ensure the community is protected.
DEC continues to rigorously monitor operations and air quality conditions at the facility and in the surrounding community and will strictly oversee the implementation of the corrective actions and modifications identified in its dust control plan. Failure to comply with the terms of the consent order may result in additional fines or penalties and revocation of this facility’s permit. |
