<br>	Brookhaven Town Safety units conducted a raid today on a residential property on Swezey Lane in Middle Island in response to numerous complaints about an illegal mulching operation.

<br>	Deputy Brookhaven Town Attorney David Moran says that residents in the area have been complaining about a foul odor and migrating dust from a nearby property.

<br>	The town and the state DEC say the property is listed as residential, but was being used illegally as a commercial recycling, mulching and sand mining operation. The property in question was being taxed as vacant land, according to the Town of Brookhaven.

<br>	Officials say there were 25 to 30 violations issued ranging from $500 to $5,000. They say the violations total at least $12,000. Efforts to reach out to the property owners were unsuccessful.
