How to File a Blasting Complaint
If you are concerned about the impacts of blasting on your property, water supply, or safety, you have a right to speak up for your quality of life and protect your home and community.
Quick Tips
- Keep a log of all the blasts, time, date and all details.
- Each time you feel a blast, mail in a blast report and call the DEP.
- Make sure your neighbors are doing the same thing
What do I Put in a Blasting Complaint
- Who you are: Your name, mailing address and phone number
