At the meeting, he says they're working with local DEP Officials on containing the issue.

'So sounds from their end they're trying to take it serious as they can, which is is great and helpful and you know, we're just trying to just live in our community,' West Wyoming resident Steven Milewski said. Local residents say they're worried there could be health issues associated with the smell. The owner of KB Crash creations said OSHA and DEP both approved the process they're using.
