People in Fleetwood say they've had enough of the stink
Fleetwood residents have joined forces to fight against an awful stench filling their homes and affecting their every day lives.
Residents Angela Thomas and Pam Diamond say more people wanted to attend last week's meeting, but due to ill health - which they believe is exacerbated by the smell - they were unable to do so.They said: "So they were prevented from attending the very thing they needed to in order to contribute to the campaign.
Transwaste re-opened the cap of "cell five" within the landfill, a section of the site where waste is dumped and compacted. This was done in order to bring it to "modern standards", but whilst the waste was moved, a revolting smell found its way out. "This work also involves the installation of pin wells to capture methane and reduce odours. In order to carry out this work, and to complete and permanently cap cell 5, it has been necessary to re-open this cell. Unfortunately, this does mean that for a short and temporary period, the waste is uncovered whilst it is moved around, which inevitably can create some odour.
"Once cell 5 has been completed, it will be permanently capped and a state-of-the-art gas capture system installed which will prevent offsite odour and generate renewable electricity. Future work on the site will take place at a much lower height and behind cell 5, which will also help improve odour control.
