Brookfield Resource Management to Build in Town of Wawayanda

By
Real Estate Agent with SHAHAR Management

Recycling, Green, Save EnergyBrookfield Resource Management has proposed a recycling facility on Dolsontown Road in the Town of Wawayanda, Middletown, NY.    Per Brookfield this will create 35 permanent on site jobs and provide $255,000 in tax revenue each year.   This increased tax revenue is said to benefit the Town of Wawayanda, New Hampton Fire Dept, Thrall Library and the Middletown Enlarged City School District.

Brookfield Resource Management is a metro New York recycler located in Elmsford, NY.  They process and ship thousands of tons of recyclable material annually.

Vehicles to the facility will arrive via 17M to Dolsontown Road, there will be adjustments to the traffic signal to ensure better traffic flow and most deliveries would be before peak hours.

Sound levels will not exceed the Town Code at the property line and this is based on a noise study conducted with an analyst.  A 13 foot noise barrier will be installed along the south side of the property.

Brookfield has an extensive training program for emergency situations and their company personnel will meet regularly with emergency personnel to coordinate training.

The site will use very little water and will prevent groundwater contamination through the use of double walled tanks, impermeable surfaces and a sophisticated storm water control system.

If you have questions or concerns about this facility please contact the Town of Wawayanda at 845-355-5700 or Tom Malone, President of Brookfield Resource Management at wawayanda@brookfieldco.com.

Just the fact that they need a 13' noise barrier sounds a little scary to me. Do you have any idea what type of recycler they are and how they will recycle.

Debbie at work in her community. It does not sound as if you are against this new development. I think everyone is always afraid of a large business coming in and what effects it will have. Employment factors are a plus though and overall it may be good for the community. Hope you are having a good weekend!

More communities need to take heed and do the same Debra! What a great boost to the local economy as well. We have recycling here but you have to take it to a few designated places. My brother who lives in Pittsburgh is required to recycle and put his garbage in seperate bins.

Debra~Finally catching up on my fellow bloggers, between major internet issues AND slow AR...hohum...anyway, I like just saying this town's name OUT LOUD. Has to be based on a Native American name, I'll bet. I lived (very briefly) as a baby in Tonowanda (I think that's how it's spelled!) It's fun! And 35 permanent jobs in ANY city in America is definitely worth a YAHOO!!!! And I'm a huge fan of recycling. Oregon is in the forefront of that. Yeah, I could see why Toni might be concerned about sound barrier stuff, but at least they already addressed it.

Toni- I believe they recycle everything - however I have heard they will be recycling cars.  Not sure yet though.  That is a large noise barrier.

Jeanean- I am not sure yet.  I don't think a business like this is ever a good thing in a residential area however without all the facts I don't want to form a firm opinion yet. 

Wanda- We have been recycling here for many years.

Patty- Thanks for stopping in my friend!

Connie- If that is what this truly is I will be happy as well.

George- I hope so!

Joni- Love the new pic!  It is pronounced Way way anda!  It is about an hour or so north of New York City.

Barbara- Almost anything bringing jobs these days is welcome news.

Gayle- Yes we will have to see how this turns out!

Ann- So true!

Ron- Thanks for stopping in!
