Sorry - can't think of any other way to word this title, but AIBU to feel very uncomfortable about this?
We live in a town which has an Industrial works - been there for absolute decades. Employs a load of local families, does a lot for the community etc.
I've just read in our Community Magazine, a letter sent in to the Editor, by a member of the public. He has named himself (so not signed as anonymous).
In the letter he asks whether the people of this community are a aware that this Company are planning on emitting a pollutant called 2.3.7.8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCCD) which toxic and is a carcinogenic. Apparently, it's already been passed as fit by our County Council and they are now only awaiting consent from the Environment Agency before starting work.
No one in my family (there are lots of us spread around this town) or immediate group of friends and neighbours are aware of this - NEVER heard it mentioned before. AIBU to have expected at least a Public Notice of this application?
Does anyone know what I could be doing to at least find out more about this? I don't like what I've googled so far I must admit.
