US (MA): Third party to be judge of Montague odor complaints

As odor complaints from abutters of Flower Power Growers continue, the Selectboard has voted in favor of having a third-party consultant evaluate the odor mitigation efforts at the 180 Industrial Blvd. marijuana grow facility.

Town Administrator Walter Ramsey said Waltham-based Tech Environmental will be the contractor hired by the town, and that Flower Power Growers has agreed to the review. Flower Power Growers has also offered to reimburse Montague for the full $4,900 that the review will cost.

Tech Environmental will be tasked with evaluating the grow facility's existing odor mitigation equipment and reviewing the previous information the town has received.

"They would review all the material that's been submitted to the town by Flower Power Growers, review the special permits and all the technical specifications," Ramsey said. "They would also do a site visit at Flower Power inside the facility."
