Carthage gets update on odor-control effort
The revision came out of a state odor-control work group that Carthage Mayor Jim Woestman attended — to urge the lower threshold.
“We thank you, because we know you’re trying to help. But we think a fine talks louder,” the mayor told DNR officials.
Both he and Tricia Orr, a frequent critic of RES, said the problem is hurting Carthage.
“I’ve talked to people who decided not to move here because of it,” Woestman said.
“That’s why we’re hopeful this technology will help,” responded Childers.
Several in attendance noted odors allegedly from RES in recent weeks. Childers said he had heard there was an odor on Friday and he drove around the plant.
“But by the time I got there, it had dissipated,” he said.
“You should have been here last Monday, it was bad,” said Jean Blackwood, another Carthage resident.
Garrett Brower, also a Carthage resident, said he has worked in the industry to develop and sell compounds that neutralize odors in animal manure. He offered to do his own analysis, and Childers said officials will talk with him.
On the Web
The Microanalytics report on Carthage odors and other studies and information on the state’s odor control work group, are available on the Internet at dnr.mo.gov/env/apcp/odor-workgroup.
