Start spreading the poop: New Yorkers may get stuck with 2.4 million pounds per day of their own excrement if a national rail strike occurs.
Normally, the trains that transport human waste from New York City wind up in landfills across the South, but the tentative deal that the Biden administration brokered between the rail workers and railroad companies came asunder on Monday.
“We are working closely with our contracted vendors and are prepared to do all that we can in a worst-case scenario, but let me be clear: a prolonged disruption of the rail network for trash removal represents a very real threat to public health and safety in the City of New York,” New York City Sanitation Commissioner Jessica Tisch told The Daily Beast.

HOw about loading it on Amtrak and sending down track to the newly named District of Crap
Poo poo choo choo
Send it to Martha’s Vineyard!
Or Chicago! Put it in violent neighborhoods - no one will leave their houses!
Boy, the people at the landfill, sure have a shi**y job.
I mean, if he hears that there may be halting of the poop train...
I bet much of it goes to processing plants to make “potting soil” and “mulch” stuff...
Full of covid vax contamination and all kinds of drugs.
No thanks. NY should have to keep their own crap.
How can anyone not think Biden somehow paid the unions off to delay this past the mid-term elections? It is way too obvious that the news that the Biden Administration had averted the strike was a lie.
“ Why do we keep taking their cr.. umm, excrement?”
It’s been that way since the 60’s.
Eighteen sixties, that is.
She came down to Birmingham one cold December day
When she pulled into that station you could hear them people say
There’s a load from New York City, it smells and it’s awfall
It came down to Alabam on the Wabash Cannonball
Organic matter does have usefulness if processed, but it requires facilities to handle that volume. Likely the Big Apple just opted for the cheaper means of disposal.
Stinks to be the neighbors within a mile of it.
I can’t tell if you’re joking, but there are actually companies that can install a system that dehydrates the “manure”, then burns it to produce electricity, with the heat from the burning being used to dehydrate the next batch, all automatically. I’ve only seen them used on large-scale cattle operations, but they should work for municipal sewage just as well.
Or, there was a machine invented back in the 90’s that could take any hydrocarbon, including sewage, and turn it into high-grade crude oil. The inventor was bad at running a business, so the company went under and I don’t know who holds the patent now. But one of my research projects back in college was to write up a proposal to have this system incorporated into existing sewage-treatment facilities at the city I lived in. I don’t have the exact numbers anymore, it’s been a few years, but I do remember that the amount of crude oil it would produce was impressive, and that it would eliminate the problem of pharmaceuticals getting into the lakes via the sewage system.
They are full of it up to the gills anyhow.
That is brilliant! Wish someone would engineer, produce and market that. It could solve a lot of problems at one time
Sad, but true :(
He knows all about packing it; shipping it on the other hand, is far beyond his ability.
“Fertilizer.”
Can you imagine what kinds of chemicals and pharmaceuticals are in it? People flush all kinds of nasty stuff.
Not everything that goes into a sewage system breaks down. What’s left is called “bio solids”.
I believe that this is the same stuff that, if you have a septic tank, collects on the bottom and needs to be pumped out once in a while.
Full of covid vax contamination and all kinds of drugs.
No thanks. NY should have to keep their own crap.

I was wondering if they test for these contaminants...
So go organic fertilizer that is chocked full of COVID vax, meth? etc.?
