A Long Island City asphalt recycling plant is spraying a “choking” stink along the Newtown Creek — leaving state regulators fuming and residents plugging their noses. State regulators first raised a stink about the noxious fumes from Green Asphalt back in January 2024, when the company was accused of spewing emissions that “unreasonably interfered with the comfortable enjoyment of life or property” in violation of the New York State Air Pollution Control Law. 7 New Yorkers living near Newtown Creek are calling on an asphalt recycling plant to stop releasing smelly, noxious fumes that “choke” nearby residents.
