Odors at Suffolk, Virginia site return
2010-09-08

Posted By: Todd S. Hageman

The Suffolk News-Herald reports that landfill odors are recurring in neighborhoods near the Southeastern Public Service Authority Landfill.  The operators of the landfill are blaming the odors on the digging of gas collection wells that will minimize odors in the future.  We had previously blogged about this site. 

While we do not represent anyone in Suffolk, Virginia, we represent hundreds of similarly situated people in the United States in various landfill and environmental litigation.  To find out if The Simon Law Firm can help with an environmental contamination lawsuit, contact environmental lawyer Todd Hageman toll free at 1-877-767-3108 or via e-mail.
