the miserable life we have lived because of biosolids being used
 
I am speaking for my family and others on Cobbs Mtn.Rd. on Aug 18-23-06 this stuff called sludge was applied on property east of my home 220 ft.from front door the average temp.was 87 degrees the stench was so bad we basically lived away from home for 28 days no meals at home no A.C no windows opened and not only did we put up with the spreading of ----we had to drive home through 1 mile  of this stench .I have been associated with farming most of my life but never have I had to endure anything like this ,and never will again,also the stock pile was only 500ft.from the home .I am by no means against farming I am against spreading something on land that no one can tell me what the long term effect will be,
