J and K Salvage, a salvage yard in Pennsylvania, is resisting calls to shut down following a fire that caused oil to leak into Codorus Creek. The yard argues that halting operations would harm more than help, as it employs thirty people and collects potentially harmful materials. The Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association seeks an immediate halt to work, citing irreparable damage, but J and K maintains the fire is extinguished and no ongoing emergency exists. The yards permit lapsed in November 2024, and a new one is pending due to red tape. The DEP ordered the yard to stop taking new waste, remove existing waste, and submit cleanup plans, leading J and K to claim the riverkeepers request is outdated and officials should handle the situation.
