Walker Hosting Landfill Open House

Tuesday, 14 May 2013 11:22

Locals are getting a chance to better educate themselves on the Southwestern Landfill proposal. Walker Environmental is hosting an open house this afternoon for locals to learn more about the proposed project. GM of Strategic Development at Walker, Joe Lyng says there will be presentation boards as well as experts to speak to about the proposal. "We also have a reading room which is set up beside the actual display room, that has a number of documents. So all of the work plans that we have developed over the last year as well as the environmental assessment that we did for our landfill site down in Niagara, that is available for people to take a look at. We have the presentation that our technical experts gave to our Community Liaison Committee". Lyng says there will also be a number of presentations and people available to hand out information. "In particular, we are going to be talking about the actual terms of reference document that we have been preparing over the last year or so and to discuss the the technical work plan as well as some of the alternatives that we've looked at from the perspective of alternatives to the landfill site as well as alternative methods of developing the landfill site if we get approval to proceed". The Open House is being held at the Quality Hotel & Suites today (Tuesday) from 2:00 to 8:00 pm.
