BS Ranch & Farm Inc., which accepts human waste as an organic waste recycling facility, has made the voluntary decision to phase out acceptance of septage and is in the process of doing so, according to its attorney, Patrice Boyes. No specific cutoff date has been given by BS Ranch. While the news may be welcomed by Lakeland residents who have repeatedly filed odor complaints against the facility with DEP, it’s created a ripple of unease among the county’s septic waste haulers.
BS Ranch’s voluntary decision to stop accepting septic waste comes after more than seven years of legal challenges from state and county officials.
“[W]e believe this decision should help resolve legal proceedings concerning BS Ranch’s DEP permit,” Boyes said.
