The company Victorian Wool Processors has been given until October 22 to remove foul-smelling waste at a Long Forest site.
Moorabool council last week issued the Laverton North-based company with a prohibition notice under the Public Health and Wellbeing Act.
As reported by the Weekly, residents complained the smell from the wool sludge was “like putting your head into a blood and bone bucket”.
The company shifted the waste to Melton West but returned to using the Long Forest site after a successful appeal to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal on July 16 this year.
