A Region Three lumberyard owner whose operations have reportedly been creating serious “dust and noise nuisances” in the residential community in which it operates for some time, has finally been required to bring an end to his neighbours’ ordeal through a list of terse orders from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Andrew Forrester, whose 136 Stewartville, West Coast Demerara, lumberyard, which, according to the EPA, also includes “processing” operations has been given one month from October 30 this year to implement six “mitigation measures” designed to bring an end to what one resident in the neighbourhood told this newspaper is both a “never-ending nuisance” and a “serious health hazard.”
