Good afternoon Steve,
The Health Department just received a call regarding the odors today from Comfort Foods and I received a confirmation
from a coworker. Are there any issues going on with the system that could explain this to the public? The caller is
dismayed that this continues to occur.
I am not in disagreement.
Thank you,
Susan

Good afternoon Susan,
I am out of the office this week on vacation but I spoke with my roasting and production managers about your odor
concerns. They informed me that nothing out of the ordinary occurred today and all machinery and equipment was
functioning properly.
They mentioned it was an extremely breezy day I don't know if this could have exasperated the problem.
Comfort Foods takes these complaints seriously and have implemented all recommendations made by the EPA.
If I can be of any further assistance please let me know.
Sincerely,
Stephen Beattie

FW: complaint details
2/22/12 The NA Health Dept received notice of a nuisance complaint that was submitted to DEP
Odors from the coffee roaster on Commerce way. Aka "Harmony Bay" or "Comfort Foods"
Before DEP comes out they would like us to investigate.
We all smell them, so it is not a question of whether they have odors, it is whether they may be doing some thing that
could affect the efficiency of the odor reducing program they have in place.
1) 1 believe there is an entrance in the back, but I could be wrong. The loading dock is definitely there
2) Explain who we are and that we received notice that a complaint has been received at MADEP from a resident
about the nuisance odors
3) In turn DEP has asked us to check it out locally before they come out.
4) Please ask for the following information.
a. What is there BTU per hour rating 6
b. What is their throughput. lbs. of bans roasters in a year?
c. Describe the odor control process
d. Could there be anything impeding the vertical exhaust on the stacks on the roof?
5) Our contact is Dave Labrode 978 694-3270 Z3

Steve,
I have just spoken with Mr. Labrode. He forwarded me information on no -loss stack heads. I wrote in my notes that you
had some type of "weather cover" on your stack. Research shows that this could be an issue.
Could you please let me know what type you currently have?
Thank you,
Susan

Subject: coffee processing odors
Hello Steve,
Thank you for taking the time to show us around the Comfort Foods Processing plant this morning. It was very
informative.
As I mentioned, The N. Andover Health Dept was contacted by Dave Labrode, of the MA Dept of Environmental
Protection. This was on 2/22/12. The DEP had received a complaint from a resident, who lives in close proximity to the
operation at 25 Commerce Way, regarding an odor that they feel has become a nuisance.
The DEP engaged the local health department to do some preliminary investigation. The Health Inspector, Michele
Grant, and I came to your production center, introduced ourselves and explained the issues to you and Bob Leonard,
production Mgr.
A few questions were asked of you and Bob. Then we were given a tour of the production floor.
We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
1) What is your BTU per hour — this is unknown to the both of you present
2) What is your lbs/year thru-put — 6 million lbs of beans/ year
3) Describe your process? You described a standard odor control process; using after burners.
4) Is there anything that could impede the upward motion of gases? The weather "cap" would not impede the flow
according to the Prod. Mgr.
I will forward this information to MA DEP. If there is any other information needed, you will be hearing from one of our
offices.
Thank you,
Susan
