Stop Work Order Issued on Mushroom Facility

Just after the last article was published on Delfresh Mushroom Farms' pollution issues, a sign was posted at the front gate of it's facility on 58 Avenue. Abbotsford Bylaws and Building permit officers also attended the property. 
Building Permit officers confirmed that concrete has been poured in order to re-use the old burned out composting facilities remnant walls. The Stop Work Order (picture above) was confirmed to apply to the 3 compost factory buildings on the property, which are not completed and also in non-compliance with odour control regulations.

When the facility started testing this past spring before final permits were issued, the air quality experienced by area residents was described as smelling dead carcasses, rotten eggs and ammonia. The air quality was vastly improved after the Cease and Desist order was issued to Delfresh and the facility finished its test batch phases of Type 'A' composting

The operational scale of this commercial composting facility is huge, but is no excuse for the significant deficit for safely handling and disposing of enormous amounts of toxic liquid waste that is produced - even when it's being operated in a limited production capacity. Curiosity peaks on the thought that if this project had been developed on land properly zoned to commercial status and appropriate permits issued for a commercial facility - planning for adequate provision for toxic waste handling and disposal would have been included, that are not in fact included in the current zoning.
For Bradner we see a demonstration by Delfresh Mushroom Farms and H.Q. Mushroom Farms of the continued disposing toxic waste into Bradner's airways and waterways in conjunction with the lack in enforcement action of all municipal, health and governmental agencies involved.
