New Brunswick's Farm Practices Review Board ruled this week that Coastal Shell Products doesn't qualify as an agricultural operation, which means a citizens' group can resume its application for a court injunction to shut down the Richibucto-based shell-processing plant.
A group of Richibucto residents have lost their latest move to try and stop what they say is an unbearable smell coming from a shell processing plant.
Dozens of people from the Richibucto, N.B., area travelled by bus and car to the Moncton Law Courts Friday morning for a hearing of the motion of the injunction against the Coastal Shell Products facility.
About 50 residents of Beaurivage, N.B. attended the hearing for a temporary injunction to shut down the Coastal Shell drying facility for the duration of ongoing lawsuits.
The plant has caused an uproar from residents because of the foul odour it creates throughout the community when it operates at night.
