Dears Sir,
As a person relatively new to living in Newton Aycliffe, I have been concerned for a while now, at the very potent stench coming from a factory(s) around the Business Park.
This very unpleasant smell seems to be a permanent, continued stench, day in day out, night after night.
I drive / walk past this area frequently, travelling from School Aycliffe, and it does seem to linger constantly, and, in my view, seems to be smelling worse?
Also, following on from the article Mr Geoff Carr wrote in the September edition.
I am not sure what I raise here, whether this is related to Mr Carr’s concerns, however, after speaking to several people in the town and at my local gym near the Business Park, it seems the consensus that many people are concerned about this also, but not sure what to do or say to raise the issue.
I am hoping, off the back of being written, it may raise an awareness of this very obvious smell and someone with authority or responsibility for whichever business(es) is causing this, can maybe look into this or address it.
I feel that, in particular, maybe environmentally this could be looked at to improve whatever is being emitted to cause this smell, if nothing else.
