Environment Protection Authority Victoria (EPA) is currently examining the Burra Foods site following a recent increase in community reports regarding odour in Korumburra.
Notices were issued to Burra Foods late last year to address other odour issues and this had seen an improvement in the company’s performance with community reports reducing during January and February.
However a recent increase in community pollution reports has triggered an EPA investigation to assess if further work needs to be undertaken at the site and whether additional EPA notices are required to reduce odour concerns for the community.
EPA encourages the community to continue reporting pollution on 1800 372 842 (1300 EPA VIC) or by visiting www.epa.vic.gov.au
