objections to proposed expansion of mayfield west resource recovery facility (ssd 7689 ) on the grounds that it is to close to a preschool the proposed expansion will increase dust levels across broard area . stockpiling of materials will increase vermon activity (rats mice ) which attract snakes etc. the facility is close to C.S.R.I.O where experiments and measurements are carried out the results must not be influenced by vibration abnormal dust levels.the facility will increase very frequent visits of very noisy heavy diesel fuming vehicles.

To whom it may concern,

I live in the neighbourhood in which the Mayfield West Recycling Plant wishes to increase its load. In this neighbourhood already - we are exposed to One Steels noise and pollution, the rail line noise and pollution, Incitec's noise and pollution. At this point in time - I can only see more noise, more pollution, more dust and more traffic involved with the further up sizing of the Recycling Plant. How about we give the local residents a break or maybe with the up sizing of the plant - reimburse the local residents insulation because I have no doubt the local dust will increase as with the workload of the recycling plant. My house is already filled with dust - I seriously don't want any more. How about we let Mayfield regenerate itself after so many years of being abused.
