‘We can’t tell them, ‘You can no longer operate”: MDE holds public meeting on CSX permit

The Curtis Bay community voiced their concerns to the Maryland Department of Environment during a meeting Thursday. The hours-long meeting was about the permit renewal for the local CSX Coal Terminal. Residents have been vocal about their fear of the health impact the terminal has on the community. “Sometimes, if you come out the door, it smells like rotten eggs. Sometimes, it smells like an animal died somewhere around your house,” said Edith Gerald with the Community of Curtis Bay Association.
