Scrap metal recycling company Conservit has reportedly been granted a setback appeal by the Washington County (Maryland) Zoning Appeals Board to install a conveyor belt at its scrap yard in Hagerstown, Maryland.
An online article by the Hagerstown-based Herald-Mail reports that Conservit President Jack Metzner has said the radial conveyor will be in a fixed position on the property and would be able to pivot 180 degrees.
Conservit operates an auto shredder at the Hagerstown site.
