The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) gave preliminary approval for Recycling Inc. to expand its business at 990 Naugatuck Avenue.
Residents have been protesting the business expansion, and the city hired an attorney to fight the Recycling Inc. permit application, filed by owner Darlene Chapdelaine.
Chapdelaine hopes to expand the business to take advantage of increased recycling opportunities. Neighbors say they don’t want added truck traffic in their area.
State Rep. Kim Rose, who has been active in fighting Chapdelaine’s proposal, said the attorney that the city hired to fight Recycling Inc. was apparently caught by surprise when the DEEP gave Recycling Inc. tentative approval this week.
“I think we’ll be meeting,” Rose said.
Chapdelaine said she could not comment yet on the DEEP ruling.
