I drove by the Rotterdam waste treatment center tonight (about 9:40) - I couldn't believe the smell coming out of that place, it was horrific.  It just permeated everything.  I don't know HOW the people in the apartments are dealing with it, it was REALLY bad tonight.

Is it like this all summer?

No. It doesn't STINK like that all of the time. Just MOST of the time! And it is even more horrific when it is hot and humid out! I don't know how those people in the apartments stand it? A friend of mine was looking for an apartment in Rotterdam. He said that he would consider any of them EXCEPT the ones by the treatment plant!

I just can't believe anyone would CHOOSE to live there - can't open your windows, can't sit outside ... I've never smelled anything so bad as I did tonight.

That's what happens when too much sewage is trying to be processed by a sewage plant that's operating at max capacity. The truth of the matter is Rotterdam needs a new efficient sewage treatment plant but they can't afford it.
