Another public meeting on the proposed metal shredder at pier 10 on the west side will be held tomorrow night. This meeting is scheduled for the Carleton Community Centre in the neighbourhood adjacent to where the shredder will be operating.

Common Councillor Donnie Snook tells CHSJ News the big concern he has heard is with the noise levels people can expect and that worry has to be addressed by the company.

There's a study claiming there will be no increase in noise levels but Snook says that will have to be analysed further and not be taken at face value.

The shredder can swallow up a car in 15 seconds with what's left being recycled. The owner of American Iron and Metal, Herb Black promises Saint John will be put on the map if the project goes ahead.
