• A Nylabone dog treat plant in Neptune City, New Jersey, has neighbors holding their noses after the company consolidated its manufacturing at the site recently.
"It's nauseating," Linda Williamson, who lives nearby, told NBC New York. "Instant headaches."
Nylabone President Glen Axelrod said the company has spent more than $2 million on odor abatement, charcoal filters and other fixes.
"If it were a bakery, you'd be smelling baked food; if we were a steakhouse, you'd be smelling steak," he said. But ... it's not.
"You can't enjoy your own yard in this beautiful neighborhood," complained Linda Colucci.
While neighbors consult with lawyers about their next moves, Axelrod said the company will continue to explore solutions to the noxious odors. [NBC New York, 8/11/2021]
