"* He was found yesterday by US marshals and State Police working at Wood Waste of Boston Inc. in Everett, where he has been living also, officials said.*"
I can't imagine anyone living down there with the odor and the rats. That's just plain disgusting.

Can someone legally live down at Wood Waste or can Wood Waste be cited for that?

Hello Everett Average Citizens,
I hope everyone is well. As I stated last fall at the close of the City Council last term, I am informing you that Wood Waste of Boston is scheduled to appear at the City Council Public Service Committee meeting on Wednesday, February 17th at 6pm to update the public on their timetable to construct an enclosed facility on Boston Street. There are questions in some circles as to why this issue is not being “aired” during our regularly scheduled meetings. I don’t need to tell you how involved this issue is. The City Council would not give this issue the same attention it would get in Committee. In the event that you are not able to attend, Committee reports in their entirety are now available on the City web-site. Please feel free to e-mail me directly if you have specific questions you want asked.
Thank you,
Peter A. Napolitano
Common Council, Ward One |

Isn’t this just nice?? All kinds of money to spend in Gloucester but keeps thumbing his nose to Everett. Just like we were promised in 2008 that he would have an enclosed facility in 18 months. I think that time has come and gone.
Historic downtown bank site changes hands
By Richard Gaines Staff Writer
One of the quiet sentinels of a key downtown Gloucester crossroads — the former Safe Deposit & Trust Co. building at Duncan and Main streets — has been acquired by a distressed property turnaround specialist, Gloucester resident William Thibeault. Thibeault acquired the largely unused office building for $675,000 from attorney George Levantis, who had a home and offices in the building before moving to Nevada.
Efforts to reach Thibeault were unsuccessful Friday; however, he has earned a reputation for the restoration and revitalization of distressed properties. His work has included breathing new life into the dilapidated wharves and grounds of the old D&B Bait Co. on Commercial Street — the property acquired by Monte Rome as the new retail store, processing and office space of Intershell, the seafood company.
Long known as the Low block, the old Main Street building had been the home of the long-defunct Safe Deposit and Trust Co. since 1875 and perhaps longer, according to city archivist Sarah Dunlap.
In recent years, the building — next to which now sits the Lobster Trap Christmas Tree — had been little used, and as such, it's presented the downtown with an unperforming property that's seen as holding back the retail shopping district, city officials and planners have long agreed.
"It's cool that someone has bought it," Sarah Garcia, the city development director, said Friday.
"Ideally, there would be a first-floor use that would produce active foot traffic," said Garcia. "Across the street, Magic Scarf is great.
"You want interest and color at the intersection," she said, referring to the crossroads that includes Main, Duncan and Pleasant streets.
"The building has nice architectural integrity," Garcia said.
The expanded BankGloucester complex, diagonally across the street from the bank building, created color and interest at the intersection through its significant renovation, completed in 2008. And Garcia said she was hopeful the new owner would put the old bank building into the same kind of use.
Until recently, Carlson, the real estate brokerage, occupied the first floor of the building Thibeault acquired.

| I haven't been down in the Wood Waste area in quite sometime. Did Thibeault ever put that enclosed structure up? |

Whistleblower tips dump
Police: Business took illegal waste
By Tricia L. Nadolny / Monitor staff
November 25, 2011
When the state ordered William Thibeault to clean up and then shutter his Massachusetts waste facility for environmental violations, mounds of construction debris were loaded onto his trucks and sent to an Allenstown site owned by his brother, according to allegations contained in a search warrant.
Over three weeks last fall, three trucks a day carrying nearly 4,000 tons of debris rumbled into Allenstown Aggregate, where Ernest Thibeault III stored the rank, decomposing waste without a permit to do so, according to the affidavit filed by the Allenstown police.
But shortly after the truckloads stopped, an informant tipped off the Allenstown police. The year-long investigation that followed ended last month with a series of indictments against Ernest Thibeault and his company, Thibeault Corp. of New England, for operating an unauthorized solid-waste dump in Allenstown.
Much of the search warrant affidavit, released last week after a court motion from the Monitor, grew from Allenstown Police Department interviews with two people, the unidentified tipster and an 11-year employee of Ernest Thibeault's company.
The employee - who is named in the affidavit but not here because he has not been charged - told the police in November 2010 that William Thibeault had him move nearly 6,000 yards of construction debris from Wood Waste of Boston in Everett, Mass., to Allenstown Aggregate.
The employee "stated he assigned trucks to start the transfer project on Oct. 22, 2010, and that the project was completed (meaning the Everett site was emptied) by Nov. 11, 2010," the affidavit says.
In a 2008 civil case filed by the Massachusetts attorney general's office, the Everett site was found to be accumulating excessive amounts of construction debris, which the company was failing to test for asbestos, as the law required. According to the affidavit, the state ordered Wood Waste of Boston to close the facility.
In late October 2010, a Massachusetts official inspecting the Everett site found the construction debris pile to be smaller than it had been the previous month, according to the affidavit. A lawyer for Wood Waste told the Department of Environmental Protection in a Nov. 19, 2010, letter that the debris had been taken to an authorized landfill in Fall River, Mass.
But the materials came to Allenstown Aggregate instead, the Thibeault Corp. employee told the Allenstown police just days after that letter was sent.
Allenstown Aggregate was formed in 2004 by Ernest Thibeault III, according to state incorporation papers. The company, located at 169 Granite St., is just steps away from the Allenstown Highway Department and backs up to Holiday Acres Mobile Home Park.
William Thibeault and Ernest Thibeault III went into business together in 1983 when they formed E.J.'s Trucking, a business that later evolved into Thibeault Corp. of New England. (William Thibeault is not listed as an officer for Thibeault Corp.) According to papers filed with the New Hampshire secretary of state, the company today is involved in general contracting and excavating. It is listed as the builder of several residential subdivisions in southern New Hampshire, and according to websites for those communities, the company has also built large retail properties throughout New England.
William Thibeault paid his brother $20 per ton to accept the materials at Allenstown Aggregate, the employee told the police. Once the debris arrived in Allenstown, Ernest Thibeault III planned to mix the construction debris in with other materials for sale, the employee said.
The employee "stated the material resembles bark mulch, is decomposing and foul smelling, and is not covered," the affidavit states.
Fourteen truckloads were also taken to the Thibeault headquarters in Londonderry and dumped behind the main office, according to the employee.
The employee "stated that the company office retains trucking slips, day sheets and invoices at the Londonderry location that were sent to William Thibeault regarding the transfer" of the construction material from Everett to Allenstown, according to the affidavit.
The state executed a search of the Londonderry office, located at 603 Mammoth Road, in December, taking several files, two computers and samples of the waste pile, according to court records.
In October, 17 indictments were issued against Thibeault Corp. of New England and Ernest Thibeault III in Merrimack County Superior Court in connection to the waste at Allenstown Aggregate. Earlier this month, five similar indictments were filed at Rockingham County Superior Court pertaining to the waste pile in Londonderry.
After the indictments were handed up last month, the company issued a statement saying it had believed the state's investigation ended last December when tests showed the debris at the Allenstown and Londonderry sites to be nontoxic.
On Tuesday, after viewing the released affidavit, a company official said in an email that Thibeault Corp. disputes many of the allegations.
"Having now had the opportunity to review the erroneous information that started this investigation, Thibeault Corporation of N.E. understands the State's initial motivation to investigate the untrue allegation relating to hazardous waste," the company's controller, Bonnie Wadsworth, said in the email.
Ernest Thibeault III's lawyer, Andrew Schulman, declined to comment on the case.
William Thibeault did not return a message left this week at his Massachusetts office.
Before Massachusetts officials ordered the closure of Wood Waste in Everett, Mass., the Department of Environmental Protection also ordered William Thibeault to close his Newburyport, Mass., landfill, which was releasing noxious gases, according to the affidavit. That case was filed in 2006 and finalized by a Massachusetts court in 2009.
In the affidavit, the initial informant who spoke with the Allenstown police said materials were being brought from both the Everett and Newburyport sites to Allenstown Aggregate, though later in the affidavit it only gives details about the transport of materials from Everett.
Allenstown Town Administrator Paul Apple said this week the town's building inspector is conducting a separate investigation into Allenstown Aggregate.
An arraignment in the case was waived earlier this month. A dispositional conference is scheduled for Jan. 6 at Merrimack County Superior Court.

Part 2
Operator's sibling had earlier debris dumping case
By Tricia L. Nadolny / Monitor staff
November 25, 2011
The indictments against Ernest Thibeault III and his company, Thibeault Corp. of New England, echo charges that were filed in 1989 against his brother William and the companies he owned alleging the illegal storing and dumping of waste, court records show.
In 1989, New Hampshire officials charged W.J.T. Enterprises, formed by William Thibeault in 1986, with dumping demolition debris in Auburn, Windham, Manchester and Dunbarton. William Thibeault served six months' jail time, and he and his company were each fined $25,000, according to news reports.
He appealed the case, and when the state Supreme Court upheld the original ruling in 1992, it marked the first time it had heard an appeal on a criminal case involving illegal dumping, according to news reports.
Also in 1989, a Rockingham County grand jury filed several indictments against another Thibeault company, Dirigo Demolition Corp., for allegedly operating a private waste facility in Kensington without a state permit. Dirigo Demolition was formed in 1984 by Ernest Thibeault Jr. and William Thibeault, according to documents filed with the New Hampshire secretary of state. Records at the Rockingham County Superior Court do not show the outcome of that case.
The relationship between Ernest Thibeault Jr. and William Thibeault is not clear but the two listed the same Manchester address when they incorporated Dirigo Demolition together in 1984. |

I wonder which infamous Wood Waste attorney lied in this quote?…….”In late October 2010, a Massachusetts official inspecting the Everett site found the construction debris pile to be smaller than it had been the previous month, according to the affidavit. A lawyer for Wood Waste told the Department of Environmental Protection in a Nov. 19, 2010, letter that the debris had been taken to an authorized landfill in Fall River, Mass. But the materials came to Allenstown Aggregate instead, the Thibeault Corp. employee told the Allenstown police just days after that letter was sent”…….
Was it Richard A. “Chip” Nylen or Tony Rossi? Who ever it was should lose their license.
