Thanks Charles, Actually I thought this board was ruder last spring. Those of us questioning claims posted here were bashed pretty bad. Wish you could give lessons on how to stay cool and collected on these boards. Do you have any opinion on TITT or POR-A? I would like to see at least one of these succeed. If not for my portfolio, then for the environments benefit. Bob

From today's Charleston paper, an article about DHEC causing a controversy about another air pollution permit. It seems DHEC granted a permit to operate to a new chicken farm and the farm's neighbor claims the airborne bacteria from the chicken farm dust will contaminate his tomatoes. An excerpt: Haley, one of the state's biggest independent tomato growers, said the fruit could be tainted with salmonella bacteria that can make people ill. Administrative Judge Marvin Kittrell did not directly address that in Monday's 47-page order, but he said regulators ignored the likelihood of air pollution, dust and odors from decaying chicken manure. The Department of Health and Environmental Control also did not follow its rules about how far the chicken operation should be from neighboring property when it granted the two permits, Kittrell said. "The department failed to fulfill its responsibilities by issuing a permit without complying with its own siting criteria and without fully considering and investigating the potential impact on the health and welfare of Wells' neighbors," the judge wrote. The ruling gives people ammunition to claim that air pollution should be a key factor in whether DHEC approves a permit, said Haley's lawyer, Bob Guild. "My question is what is DHEC going to do as a result of this ruling?" Guild said. The agency was still reviewing the decision and had not decided what to do, DHEC spokeswoman Jan Easterling said Wednesday. charleston.net Charles
