A noxious odor has affected the well-being of residents in Bolivar, Ohio and
surrounding communities.
The EPA has said this odor is a result of
aluminum dross/saltcake that Countywide Recycling landfill accepted in large
amounts.
According to Robert Frey, geologist and chief of the Health
Assessment Unit of the Ohio Department of Health, odors can create health
problems such as headaches, or nausea.
Frey was quoted in the
Times-Reporter on the issue: "Basically, when you breathe a bad odor, it
goes to the brain and can cause a person to become anxious and the stress level
increases and could cause respiratory problems."
As a result of the
extreme odor, families in the area have begun to seek legal counsel with Weitz
& Luxenberg's Environmental Toxic Tort Unit, as well as with Steven D. Bell
Co.

have been contaminated with
MTBE, as well as several communities

suffered as a result of pollution.
