We Have Odor Reports Today

A Note From the Editor

We are now able to report odors to the FDEP online. We still need to send an e-mail or call Orange County to report to them. Orange County is working on having an online system to report and it was supposed to be up this week. The virus is slowing things down. 

Online Odor Reporting for FDEP

Zero Days Without an Odor Report

Odor Reports and Correspondence

Call and write e-mails when you smell the odors. Don't give up, that is what the offending businesses want us to do. The e-mail list is located at the bottom of the page. 

 8:45 AM Anuvia smell this morning. Dudley and Dora. Submitting reports and writing some letters. I encourage others to do the same.

The absolute worst is when you get the Anuvia/poop combo, and then Monterey makes its way on over. It has literally smelled like something massive had died in our yard when that happens.
..........

Dang, it smells! Filled out the form. The wind is coming from the south. 75 degrees outside. I also sent emails.

10:30 pm, Anuvia smell is potent tonight. Went out and started coughing. Had to comeback inside. Reported online and emailed.

FDEP online reporting is easy and convenient. Orange County needs to do this.

Of Note 

Dear Orange County Officials,

It's  9:35 pm  and the wind is out of the ESE, the humidity is at 61 percent and the odor is horrific.  
Do you really think you guys and the state will ever do anything about this Orange County disgrace? 
As soon as this Pandemic is over, this needs to be addressed or the county needs to admit that you have failed miserably to address this problem.  
It seems as if you guys think this is just going to go away. Either you don’t know how to fix the problem or there is some other nefarious reason why the County won’t fix it.   
I am tired of being an apologist for the ineptness of our bureaucrats in Orange County Government. 
This problem could have been solved if someone demonstrated some resolve in this matter. The situation is pathetic! 
You just don’t understand how bad it is. 

Best regards,

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...
