The Lancaster MP has asked Prime Minister Rishi Sunak for urgent help as residents continue to be affected by a massive industrial estate fire.
Cat Smith spoke at Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday about the ongoing incident at the former A1 Supa Skips site on the Lune Industrial Estate.
Ms Smith has called for urgent government funding to tackle the environmental impact of the fire at the former skip hire site.
This comes as air pollution checks are being carried out "to provide clarity on the safety of the area" after the massive fire involving 13,000 tonnes of commercial waste.
They are taking place as residents and businesses near the Port Royal Avenue site continue to smell foul fumes near their properties 10 days after the fire started.
Health advice has been issued for people who may be experiencing effects from the ongoing smoke plume caused by the fire.
Firefighters remain on-site tackling the deep-seated blaze which broke out on December 3.
"It's frustrating to have had a meeting on this in September cancelled due to the resignation of a Minister on the day of our meeting, otherwise this could have been sorted months ago before the fire. Now it's an environmental disaster.
"I will keep pushing for meetings with government ministers to ensure that we get the financial assistance that we need to clear the site, protect the local environment, and safeguard residents and businesses."
