Waste dumping at North Adams linked to Shaftsbury plant
About 5,000 gallons of industrial waste from Stanley Tools in Shaftsbury Vermont were dumped into North Adams sewers last Monday. Berkshire-Pittsfield Septic Tank Cleaning Service acknowledges the incident as an accident caused by a truck driver’s incompetence. Company president Joseph S. Szczepaniak Jr says it is the only such dumping since permission to dispose of liquid waste was granted nearly two years ago. The Hoosick River Basin Environmental Association disputes this, saying trucks have traveled between Stanley Tools and North Adams more than once.
