COM Member FDIC Member DIF By Mark E. Vogler T he town’s Board of Health has lost another court battle RIGHT BY YOU in its eff orts to challenge a permit issued by the state Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) nearly four years ago which allowed expansion of WIN Waste Innovations’ (formerly Wheelabrator) ash landfi ll adjacent to its trash-to-energy plant on Route 107.

The board had also contended that MassDEP’s claim that modifi cation of the operating permit was not a threat to public health, safety or the environment or endangered species and their habitat was unsupported by substantial evidence.

Furthermore, the Appeals Court added, “We conclude that WIN | SEE Page 16 Prices subject to change Ask about   FLEET
