Quite a Ways to Go

Michael Foresman, Chairman, Missouri Air Conservation Commission, said that Renewable Environmental Solutions, LLC (RES) has made strides in odor-control efforts, but it still has "quite a ways to go".

"They've got quite a ways to go on odor emissions" and "It smelled pretty bad", were other comments Mr. Foresman made during a tour of RES yesterday, December 7, 2005.
What's curious to me is that though the commission sees complaints involving RES, no issues involving action by the comission have come before the panel. The Air Conservation Comission is meeting today in Springfield, for its regularly scheduled monthly meeting.
RES was stinking yesterday (wind out of the NE), I can only imagine what the Commissioners said about Carthage and "the smell" when they got in their vehicles and left town. I'm sure it was something like, 'I'm glad that I don't live there!'
