ALBERTON – Alberton Town Council is still awaiting a decision from the Farm Practices Review Board after filing a complaint about odours from a farm in town.
Council filed the complaint last month in response to complaints from residents about a seaweed-lobster-body compost mixture piled, and subsequently spread, on Westech Agriculture farmland.
