EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — Cedar Grove Composting, which converts food and yard waste into compost and has been the source of odor complaints, could expand though possibly at a new location.
The Herald of Everett reports documents filed with state and federal agencies show the Smith Island company expects to process more than three times more organic waste than it does today.
The company says right now they only want to build an electricity plant and have no plans to expand their capacity to process compost.
People who live in Marysville and north Everett have complained about an odor they believe is coming from Cedar Grove. The company processed about 195,000 tons of waste last year.
