Was making a delivery to a urban sewerage treatment plant today. Jokingly I asked what's a guy need to do to get a load of that sludge. Guy says if it was up to me you could have all you want but the boss will not let us give away or sell it. I ask if it was due to EPA. NO Years back a sugar cane farmer that was a good business man; saw a opportunity to make a little extra money came in and started taking all the sludge to put on his cane fields. Since these plantations measure in the thousands of acres I can imagine he was saving a pretty penny on fertilizer cost.
Then his neighbors went to complaining. First they complained about the smell. That did not work so the accused the parish for creating unfair business practices as they were giving all the sludge to one guy while others had to buy fertilizer.
The parish did not want to get in the middle of this so they stopped giving the sludge away. It all goes to the land fill now.
