The Board of Supervisors of Huntington Township convened on May 8, 2025, to address various community concerns and administrative matters. The meeting began with public comments, where resident Jim Walbert raised significant issues regarding air quality and environmental regulations related to EB Mulch, a local business involved in land clearing and mulch production.

Walbert referenced the Pennsylvania Constitution's Clean Air Act, expressing concerns about air quality and water runoff from the EB Mulch facility. He questioned whether the business had obtained the necessary permits from the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and raised issues about the health of water in a nearby pond. He also inquired about the type of operations conducted at the facility, specifically whether it involved mulch or compost production, and whether proper fuels were being used for machinery.

In response, the Board clarified that the Adams County Conservation District oversees stormwater management at the site and that the DEP has conducted inspections. The Board emphasized that it is not within the township's authority to enforce stricter air quality regulations than those established by the state. They suggested that Walbert compile his questions in writing for further discussion with the DEP and the Conservation District.

Following public comments, the Board moved on to approve the minutes from the previous meeting, with a request from another resident, Marie DeGangi, to include her assertion of a Sunshine Act violation in the minutes. The Board agreed to review the minutes for accuracy.

The meeting continued with the approval of the bill list, which totaled $297,870, primarily for infrastructure projects, including a significant payment for culvert work. The financial report indicated a general fund balance of approximately $570,856, with additional funds in the state account.

The Roadmaster reported on recent maintenance activities, including road painting and culvert replacements, while supervisors addressed community concerns about truck traffic on South Ridge Road and a complaint regarding waste management services.

Overall, the meeting highlighted ongoing community engagement with environmental issues and the township's commitment to transparency and adherence to state regulations. The Board's next steps include further discussions with relevant agencies to address residents' concerns effectively.
