Thank you for this complaint. The Air District inspector will investigate as soon as possible. If you can provide a comment to this page giving additional information that would be helpful. For example, is the odor still ongoing or what time did you notice it start or end?

Description:
The Air District inspector found the source of this odor to be a landscaping operation in the area of the Hunters View apartments. There is a pile of compost that is being spread throughout the grounds. The odors are produced during the spreading of the material which the contractor has said will take a week to complete. The inspector has asked that the pile be covered during non-work hours and for the contractor to try watering as a method to reduce the spread of odor. The inspector will follow up and we will provide updates.

Correction: The location of the landscaping is not at the Hunters View apartments, but further East, along Hudson Ave.

The Air District inspector determined the that the supplier of the very odorous mulch material was Bayview Green Waste Management. He conducted a joint inspection with the Local Enforcement Agency (LEA) resulting in the removal of the odorous material from that facility.
