Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (SMSC) : Stop the unwanted odors from the ORF compost facility and Woodchip process

The Issue

Quality of air is impacted from the putrid fumes from the compost and woodchip process.  
There are particles on our property, homes and automobiles, from the turning of the windrows and woodchip process. The odors from the compost center are unbearable causing headaches, stomach problems, sinus problems and skin problems.  The composting from waste food products can possibly enter into our wells and the air borne particles our property and into the air we breathe. Planning outdoor activites is impossible due to the uncertainty of when the putrid smell from the turning of the windrows.  When we have nice cool evenings and our windows are open we are woke up by the putrid smells from the compost smell.
