The Schierman family sanctuary is a private park, wildlife habitat and
newborn event venue and ecotourism destination. Wintertime guests and
residents of the Oasis need your help to end the neighboring farmers
indoor garbage burning and use of unapproved stove and stove pipe
(elevator leg) during the winter and early spring. We believe the
general smell comes from burning power poles with creosote on them and
the creosote soot stuck to the elevator leg walls. The smell is foul whether he
is burning garbage or not, but we can tell when he puts garbage or
creosote soaked wood in it because it stinks even worse. The stench is
always nauseating when he is burning. Sometimes they let it burn after
they leave, day and night. We are unable to work outside or in the
backstage shed, shop, barn, or studio during the use of the stove
because it makes us feel sick. We have to plan around the times that they are polluting. It is destroying a long list of
opportunities for ourselves and our guests when they are burning. We
cannot even open the windows to the house for fresh air on a nice
spring day when he has it burning. It permeates our clothing, so we can
smell it on ourselves even when we are in the house. There isn't any
fresh air on at least half of our property (40 acres total) when
Lancaster Farms Inc. is utilizing the stove in the shed leased to them
by Heritage Properties, LLC. The reason we smell it so often is because
the shed is in line (right across the road) with the prevailing wind and it inverts into our
treed and wind broken park property. If we can get rid of the smoke
pollution, we'll gladly pick up all of his trash that blow onto our
property and the county road ourselves.
