#NewJersey is suing a recycling company over a series of fires at scrap metal yards in #Camden. State officials say there have been at least 12 major fires over the past five years at EMR Advanced Recycling facilities and argue that the unsafe conditions are a nuisance that's affecting public health. In the lawsuit filed by New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Shawn LaTourette against the company, the state says smoke that filled nearby blocks during the fires has caused residents in the area to suffer from acute respiratory illnesses.
