Indianhead Biomass, LLC. also known as Indianhead Exploration began their operations out of compliance back in 2018 and have continued to fail to meet the requirements of their permits ever since, all of which has been officially documented by the FDEP. For years, the nearby residents have been affected by the odor of human feces wafting through the neighborhoods and impacting their welfare and enjoyment of their properties. We want to end this injustice and bring fresh air back to the residents of St. Augustine.
The purpose of this website is to compile the information for everyone and include the relevant resources for how to report to the authorities. If you are not sure where to start with reading through the website: we recommend reading the F.A.Q's. The situation is still ongoing and the website will be updated when new information or changes are available.
Morgans Cove, Carter Road, St. Augustine Lakes, Deerwood Acres, Adams Acres, Green Acres, Prairie Lakes, Entrada, Osceola Heights, Holmes Blvd, and Old Town Villages. There may be more affected areas we are unaware of, including the new residential developments in the vicinity.
The smell has reached as far as Osceola Elementary School and Murray Middle School. With building more and more houses in the vicinity, the community is concerned for the health and well-being of both the current and the future residents.
The map below shows the radius from Indianhead Biomass to the farthest known affected point which is Osceola Elementary School.
