• Former Grafton Company To Pay $250K Settlement To State: AGO (patch.com) — A former food-waste recycling company that once operated on Creeper Hill Road in Grafton will pay up to $250,000 to the state after alleged air and solid waste violations tied to strong odors affecting nearby residents. State officials say the case, which led to an injunction and the facility’s closure and sale, should warn other businesses to follow environmental rules protecting community air quality.
