A Barrio Logan neighborhood is getting relief from a noxious smell that comes from a Newton Avenue biofuels plant.
New Leaf Biofuel is operating a filter system that uses activated carbon to neutralize the smell inside and around the facility. It was a welcome break for Barrio Logan resident Maria Fernanda-Corral who lives across the street from the plant at a senior apartment complex.“Today we’re very thankful that it’s a good day,” Fernanda-Corral said. “That way we can come out on the patio. We can do our plants. We can even sit for a little while or take sun.”
That hasn’t been the case the last two years. She said sometimes the smell was so strong she nearly vomited.“We couldn’t stand it anymore,” she said.
