(From page 1) odor should be so diluted by the time it reaches ground level as not to be objectionable," Thaler wrote. • Those escaping through louvers on top of the 40-foot high reactor building because of clogged orifices. "This problem has . been addressed by engineering controls to ] be in place in the near future," she said. ' HER REPORT said on-site odors I include: • Container room exhaust coming through a 12-foot stack located directly behind the building. "The scrubber was not properly operating at time of the April 16 inspection." Thaler said. • Dumping of sludge in the area of the mixing building. • Dumping of processed compost from the reactor to covered storage. "Because of the limited amount of sludge accepted presently by the compost facility, it is doubtful whether these sources contribute to the problem of offsite odors," Thaler wrote. "Only sludge from the two MUA sewage treatment plants is now processed at the facility." MIDDLE TOWNSHIP has been receiving renewed odor complaints from residents since mid-March. The county Health Department has sent affidavits to the complainants, according to Mayor Michael J. Voll. Thaler said citizen odor complaints are prosecuted by the DEP under the state Air -"Pollution Act. Her recommendation was ! that the township may xvant to consider adopting the regulation as a local ordinance. "We're going to consider that, but we haven't really worked on it," said Voll. who received the report on Monday. "I personally hope it will work, the 100-foot stack, but I don't think it will." he added "It's a heck of a time to try it. in the hot. humid season " HARRY HORNICKELand Larry Nelson Jr.. of the state Department of Environmental Protection <DEP) Bureau of Field Operations, were present during the April 16 inspection. .It revealed that a scrubber serving the container room was not using sodium hypochlorite wash because of a leak, a per mit violation. After the inspection. Hornickel charged the MUA with permit and odor viplations On April 17. Cindy Chemerys of the MUA told Thaler the reactor scrubber tower would be on-line by mid-July The composting plant, a facility design ed to turn sludge from the MUA's

wastewater treatment plants into a nitrogen-rich soil conditioner, experienced startup problems last summer, resulting in strong odors and a Middle Township lawsuit that sought to have the odors cleared or the plant closed. SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE L Anthony Gibson on Sept 1 1 gave the MUA six weeks to stabilize its system. 14 weeks to install new exhaust coils, and 16 weeks to extend its stack from 15 to' 50 feet. Hutchinson said that work was completed by Jan. 1. The cost of extending the stack was $40,000. the cost of installing cooling coils was $62,000, he said. "We outlined a plan for the judge and did the needed modifications," Hutchinson said "We were then told to take a look at things and do any final work that is needed." Middle Township Solicitor Bruce Gorman said the case is listed to go before Judge Gibson on May 21. At that time. Gibson is supposed to decide whether to close the case or bring the matter to trial. The MUA work isn't expected to be finished before July. "The question is whether it is expeditious to postpone the decision, if the court allows it." Gorman said. "We're going for a postponement, until we find out what happens with the 100- foot stack." Voll said.
