Residents file class-action lawsuit against Dovetail, Pitstick
By London Bishop - lbishop@aimmediamidwest.com
BATH TOWNSHIP Bath Township residents have filed a class-action lawsuit against Dovetail Energy LLC, Pitstick Renewable Energy, Pitstick Pork Farms Inc., and Township Trustee Tom Pitstick.
The lawsuit, filed on Dec. 10 in Greene County Common Pleas Court, alleges that the smell coming from the biodigester facility at Dovetail Energy has deprived residents of the full use of their property and quality of life. Luke Borntrager is listed as the primary plaintiff, representing himself and “all others similarly situated.”
Allegations against Pitstick primarily include the odor coming from the biodigester facility, citing failure to “collect, capture, and destroy gas from the Facility in a manner that does not allow noxious odors.” Additionally, the lawsuit alleges gross negligence on the part of Pitstick, Dovetail, and the other related parties to prevent these odors
