The Daily Sludge Report

Zero Days Without A Smell Report


It's a quarter after 2 pm here in Tangerine. It's a breezy day and I didn't detect any odors when I was out a little bit ago. My dog seemed to enjoy himself, while I raked a little bit. I'm still getting over my horrible spring cold so I'll be asking the group to report the presence or absence of odors as the day goes on. This post will be updated as the day goes on.

Windy (in Celsius)



My Radar
It was too good to last for long. This report is from Tangerine. 3:38 Sunday afternoon. Beautiful day at Lake Ola. The wind just shifted. I had to come inside due to the smell now coming my way.
This report is from Renninger's Antique Market No odors to document for me today coming or going from Renninger's. My nose radar turned on about 3pm on the property, but I'm unsure if I was imagining it. If it was for real, it was just a bit sulfurous, short-lived. No perceivable wind today (except for myself) LOL!

Tour of Mount Dora Water Water Reclamation Facility: Guest Post by Amber Perretti

  "Report from my 12/17/20 tour of the Waste Water Plant" The Mt Dora Water Reclamation Facility on 441 and SR 46 has been in operation for approximately 12-15 years. Its’ primary function is to convert sewer wastewater into reclaimed water for irrigation purposes. The facility is operating at half its current capacity and is master-planned to be built to double its current size. Grease trap waste and septic tank waste are NOT accepted at the facility. Sludge (a compost material) extracted at the end of the reclaim process is hauled off by Shelly’s Septic for additional treatment and reuse as fertilizer. This sludge has no smell when it leaves the treatment plant site. After touring the facility, the only step that has odors is the "headworks" where the wastewater comes in and the "surge tank" where the wastewater is stored for processing. The current odor control system is carbon filtration. The carbon filters are changed out as needed. While carb...

The Saga of Drainage into Lake Ola

Image
From:  Ned Bowers  Sent:  4/19/2020 To:  Recipients Redacted Subject:  Orange County Permit Application - Drainage into Lake Ola As everyone is aware, I have been in a fight to protect my property rights for over 10-years.  In December 2019, the case went through a 5-day bench trial.  Fees the County will eventually pay are north of $800,000 and the damages trial will tack on another $200,000.  That may be a reason to never oppose the government.  Just allow them to do as they please no matter the harm.  Be it known, I support good government.  I only oppose corruption in government along with a coverup. The defense was terrible; embarrassing. But suing the government is every bit as difficult as people say.  This was no exception.  The first trial on October 22, 2018, was a complete bust.  Part of the blame was that, unknown to me, Orange County solicited St Johns for a "permit" and rec...
