Renewable Environmental Services (RES), the company that has brought the new world odor to Carthage will be allowed to test its equipment three days a week under orders issued today by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
The DNR will monitor RES during this trial, scheduled for today through Feb. 15. The company will operate "with a mixture of normal Butterball feed stock and a benign combination of grease and vegetable oil," according to a DNR news release.
This is the same equipment monitored during a one-day trial last week, the news release said. The company was shut down by Governor Matt Blunt Dec. 29 after continual odor problems.
A decision will be made at the end of the trial period on whether to allow the company to continue operating the machinery, DNR Director Doyle Childers said in the news release.
res has installed a system of fans that will blow the smell over the poor section of carthage away from the affluent areas. this should satisfy dnr regulations.
