Has anyone noticed that Salemtown no longer stinks the days after holidays and on Mondays? I think that we have all avoided discussing the absence of funk so as not to jinx ourselves, but it's been at least 6 months now since I detected the sludge scent, which used to waft westward from the Central Wastewater Treatment Facility over on 2nd Ave. at least one day a week. The
short-term changes Metro Water started late last summer seem to be working, even as we await the 2008 completion of construction of the
new biosolids facility and its greenway.
Didn't smell anything this morning. But I did yesterday afternoon when I was at the baseball field (it was very minimal). It was definately the first in a very looooong time.
