Hello! A few comments on this proposal:

Firstly, this is quite close (barely 1km on a busy one lane highway) to town and our prevailing wind is from the north, so any smell and dust will absolutely be impacting our residents' health. We're already in a chemical valley and more at risk for certain health factors, so this will likely cause a spike in health problems.

In addition to the dust and smell, the continual operations will cause constant noise pollution and certainly lower our quality of life. Property values will of course effect everyone as well, and the roads will become even worse. The distance these trucks will need to drive will cause more problems than needed and cause more pollution as well. This is socially and fiscally irresponsible, as it will mean our county will need to dedicate what little resources we have to up keeping the roads. Traffic is a huge concern as well. We are a large county, and Dresden is not always well looked after. We're the little guy, and we need some help here.

The lack of a voluntary environmental assessment in addition to the above damages show blatant disregard for human, animal, and plant life. This proposal will effectively kill 33 species in our waterways via Molly's Creek, which surrounds the area on three sides. This will eventually affect multiple communities on it's way to Lake St Clair. The environmental recklessness shown here is frankly alarming. If we let this go through, it will be a good example of human apathy at it's finest.

All in all, this is hardly an amendment and more of a complete disruption. Thanks for all your hard work and have a good day!
