BRADS landfill permit up for renewal; public meeting scheduled
SAINT CLAIR – The Blythe Recycling and Demolition Site’s permit is up for renewal and they’re seeking permission to double their intake limit.
The landfill, along the Burma Road near Saint Clair, is looking for renewal of their permit to accept construction and demolition waste for another ten years.
They also want to increase their daily intake limit from 1,500 tons to 3,000 tons.
The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is holding a public meeting on Nov. 19 from 6pm to 9pm at the Saint Clair Elementary/Middle School.
Department representatives will be on hand, and those wishing to ask questions are asked to submit a written notice of their questions to Maria Ocasio, Environmental Justice Coordinator at: [email protected] or can be mailed to the department’s Bethlehem District Office at: 4530 Bath Pike, Bethlehem, PA 18017.
DEP says the meeting format will take place as follows: each person will be allowed to ask two questions plus one follow-up question. Once attendees have been given the opportunity to ask their questions, and if time allows, each person can ask one final question. Individuals who pre-register to ask questions will be given priority on the agenda. Those who have not pre-registered to ask questions can sign up at the meeting.
