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&#8217;s created a ripple of unease among the county&#8217;s septic waste haulers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"900\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BS-2-1024x900.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BS-2-1024x900.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BS-2-300x264.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BS-2-768x675.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BS-2.jpg 1461w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BS Ranch&#8217;s voluntary decision to stop accepting septic waste comes after more than seven years of legal challenges from state and county officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;[W]e believe this decision should help resolve legal proceedings concerning BS Ranch&#8217;s DEP permit,&#8221; Boyes said.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"537\" height=\"427\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 537px) 100vw, 537px\" src=\"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/bs1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/bs1.png 537w, https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/bs1-300x239.png 300w\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BS Ranch &amp; 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&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10646,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"wpai_generated_summary":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"{title}\n\n{excerpt}\n\n{url}","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","default_image_id":71799,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[14],"tags":[6475],"class_list":["post-37870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-bs-ranch-says-itll-stop-accepting-deliveries-of-human-waste"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37870"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37870\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10646"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
