Yuma County to talk biosolids in next supervisors meeting

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Yuma County will be taking up the biosolids issue at their next supervisors meeting on Monday.

Last December, the County sent a letter to the state land department requesting that AG Tech lIC’s lease be terminated.

The request came after the County claimed that “residents, agricultural producers, and community stakeholders have experienced persistent nuisances attributed to ag tech’s operations, including overwhelming odors, severe fly infestations, and the spread of dust and debris from the use of biosolids on state land.”

The meeting is planned for next Monday at 9 a.m. at the Yuma County Auditorium on Main Street.

People wanting to talk are encouraged to sign up at the call to the public.
