Won't you be my Neighbor?!? Documenting 7-8 out of 10. 5:45 pm  3/25/2020 3/25/2020 Le t's see if there is an improvement. I've been in touch with Anuvia recently. I can text Barbara of Shelley's but other than a phone long conversation a couple of weeks ago, I haven't been in as close of contact. She is defensive and seems to think they're being singled out. 3/27/2020  I just got off of the phone with Maria Repass of Orange County 407-836-1468 and we had a 25-minute phone call. I told her that we are fed up and feel that nothing is being done. 1. We are fed up 2. We can't go anywhere due to the Stay at Home Order 3. We can't work in our yards or go out...

Good afternoon, I live next door to Shelley’s Septic Services and we use well water for our household needs including preparing food and beverages. I have become aware that the Florida State Department of Environmental Protection has cited this business for poor runoff control of their products during storms and other problems.   I am aware that Shelley’s Septic Services has a poor record of following the requirements for handling waste in the proper ways and employees were charged with felonies for improper dumping of sewage waste in the past.    Because the nature of this business is working with raw sewage and biosolids, this is a concern for me.   Clearly, this company’s record shows that they have little concern for the health and well being of people who may be exposed to their sewage and its products. We are a young family with a child and we are concerned that our well water is or could be contaminated with toxic chemicals and/or disease-ca...

The chemical and biological makeup of biosolids can vary greatly depending on the source of the sewage and the treatment processes it undergoes. Sources include wastewaters of households, commercial establishments, industries, medical facilities, and in some cases street runoff. EPA has pre-treatment standards that set industry-specific effluent limits (11). Treatment plants must have approved ordinances that establish quality standards, and monitoring and enforcement penalties before they can accept industrial wastewater contributions (11). Continued

I’m concerned about two problems for the lakefront homeowners, the odors and their source’s effects on the lake and the groundwater.   I believe that the odor problem is well known to you. The unpredictable onset of the various stenches seems to occur with no rhyme or reason. Sometimes they last for minutes and other times they last all day.   Those of us on the north side of the lake smell them the...
