As long as Clean Harbor can meet the EPA guidelines, aren't they typically discharging to city's wastewater system?

Would we have even heard about this if it wasn't from East Palestine? Or does Mayor Scott step in every time they're treating Vinyl Chloride/PFOA/PFOS? It feels more like grandstanding than anything. Particularly without any follow up guidance to dictate what we'll allow them to discharge to DPW in the future.

this is how things have been going in the US. if you can foment enough fear to make a headline, it does not matter if something is actually safe or abnormal. people are not rational and they don't trust experts.

I mean any fool can read a map and tell you where’s what and words do mean things: https://data.baltimorecity.gov/datasets/9c96ae20e6cc41258015c2fd288716c4

I post a map of the city the other day and as I recall you were one of the very people butthurt about grouping smaller neighborhoods with the larger ones using the CSA map. So keep that sane energy now.

Hahaha. This is funny. I didn't realize you worked for the Department of Planning. I'll rephrase.

"There a number of quality hotels at various price points located east of Mr. Trash Wheel and west of Ann St and all south of Pratt St."

Mayor Scott didn't block the facility from treating the water, just from releasing the treated water into the city's sewer and wastewater system. I assume that made Clean Harbor's treatment plan economically unfeasible.

Yup cause that’s what that button is for. And fir clarity as you MF seen to think about me so often.

Even so fleet isn’t harbor east. It’s it’s little at best Jonestown or little Italy, which is NOT harbor east. It’s before the former Della Notte site which is currently where that apartment building sits with the AT&T store. Harbor east begins where that Starbucks is.

you just gonna continue editing all your comments? you sure love doing that. You are very mad, take a deep breath, drink some water. The homewood suites, once again, is on fleet, not pratt. I do not know what you are mixing it up with.

It seems strange to block this one instance of wastewater being treated while we have an entire industry dedicated to it here.

Clean Harbors' Baltimore facility is one of three in the US specializing in this and likely treats similar and worse liquids every day. We're only hearing about this particular instance because it made national news. Let alone what we burn at Wheelabrator.

So I retract and add Tru to little Italy. Homewood suits is on President and Pratt. That’s very much not harbor east. It directly across from the original after Lewis African-American history Museum

You do realize you included Tru Hilton in your list, which is further away from Harbor East proper than Hyatt Place, right? Get of your high horse lmao. Homewood Suites is on fleet & president - could not be more Harbor East.

Adding to the list...Hilton Garden Inn. Or is that Southeastern Little Italy?

Crime is directly tied to material condition. You can't "solve" crime when a quarter of your tax base lives in poverty. You either have to fix the reasons that they are poor or push poor people out of the city. Baltimore isn't attractive enough to push poor people out of the city. This idea would go towards improving the material conditions of it's residents so lol good luck getting that approved.
