Tilt February IB J Site near Hornby at top Public had big say in final decisions A acre site r as been selected alternative location or new regional landfill Tlnarci is located cast of Trafalgar just south of ghny The site tops a list of four alternatives proposed in interim Resource Recovery Study being out M Dillon Ltd the under guidelines set out by a new and the province possible locutions for a regional garbage dump were considered by lilt con The sites located In Hilton Hills the rapidly shrinking the reams the LEGEND landfill located the Tenth I the S ON E of SITES A This site is not rated high for landfilling normal domestic refuse The site has some potential for landfilling Beciusc of problems with shallow soils and a shallow the location does not appear suitable for landfilling The area warrants some consideration as a minor site for use for a short period of time This location is not rated highly for a landfill operation F Of all the proposed locations as one of the best or landfill operations The potential for a major landfill operation in this location is high The area is only considered acceptable for dry wastes e construction debris J This area does not rate highly as a potential the landfill operation Because of hydrogeologic and topographic limitations has many restrictions to the development of a landfill Because of constraints limitations access and distance it is this area not be developed as a major landfill should be by the region commit council Visual of a landfill site would be very high the study continues due to the flatness and of the terrain If the site was built in the north end with access off Road itcntiuus wmll lP rcq from Hwy In of homes located on the report points out that one located on the tighth me south of Road is I rik I of and

the area is generally good agricultural land It is not being intensively farmed A n lint crosses the Councillors will have to act quickly on choosing the site for new dump with the high ranking of the site The report notes because of Its distant from the prime garbage Burlington haulage to ill be high While this rnuliie does not the eeonom cal solution it was the stated first choice in public

Study they ta could be critical in whether or not Hal ton has a place put its garbage by 1978 An unexpected month a delay now could find looking outside Its borders or a place to dump their garbage Town to carry out own study of 500 kV by late 1977 The regions public works director Jack Corbett noted in a press conference following the release of the Interim Resource Recovery Study last week that the timetable M M Dillon and the regional staff are working under Is becoming very critical By June I of this year the landfill site near Milton will be closed Garbage from that area will likely be hauled to Georgetown s dump Alrcndy Milton and Acton are sending heir refuse to the Georgetown landfill With the added load the Georgetown operation in ex peeled reach by July of this year At that point all garbage from the north will hat be taken to Burlington unless on alternative site already in existence Is then the prcparition regions new landfill site Tl final report from I their re discovered Burlington site was to have another four life at current capacity however the rement to use the Burlington site for nil regional garbage will shorten Its life considerably The Dillon report in fact estimated that the Burlington landfill will reach capacity by late 1077 on In the meantime Mr should large amount of work garbage then the I led nl The impact of a landfill site in this area would be minimal Noise and dust are by and the line There are only a few dwellings in Ihc area and a ridlo transmitting station The area most likely for landfilling is between Highway and Hold The conclusion on Ihc second alternative slates Of all the proposed locations I this appears as one of Ihc best for landfill operations The site is just north of the waste Ihcreforc is central for v disposal in the region However it odds The location of a site in this area will remove good agricultural land from potential produe lion While portions of the area are not currently Intensively armed

poll Haulage costs may be an Important factor that regional councillors will consider when making their final choice Burlington and account lor percent the wastes produced In the region the report states A natural divide in the region is Highway That part of Milton south of contributes proximately nine percent the total wastes Therefore B5 percent the wastes in the region ore generated from the area south Highway and 15 percent from the area north By 1955 the report adds its estimated that the percentage totals will change slightly with percent generated south and percent in the north half of the region Estimating the costs of hauling garbage to the site consultants estimated that It would cost per year to transport Burlington garbage there for a for Hills 700 for Milton The total haulage costs each year to the Hornby site would be in the area of it closer the major producer Burlington by selecting the second alter native would cut the overall costs per year by IB in comparison to the a site costs Burlington s haulage costs would drop by approximately per year while Hills would increase by Any thoughts that the Georgetown dump could be improved were squashed by the consultants conclusions that because of Hydro geologic constraints size limitations access and distance it is suggested that this area not be developed as a major landfill site They did however odd that consideration be given o development of a small site lo serve Hills and north Milton only In Ihetr summary the third eonsidered site In Halton Hills located in the southeast portion the town the con noted that he Que ens ton shale bedrock on the site is the for most of the wells in the area and a ground water recharge zone Is apparently situated over the central part of the site Therefore they concluded the site should be ruled out because and topographic limitations The Ashgrove site which was recommended in report drawn up by the consulting firms as the prime location for Halton regional dump was ruled out on three counts by the Dillon The recently constructed Seoth Block Dam and reser voir is located less than a mile downstream on the Middle Creek they reported Any pollution of the creek by a landfill site would affect this area downstream As well they pointed out that a large farm house surrounded by four very large high quality black walnut trees over lect high are located on the property A third reason listed against the site was hat a young pear orchard Is located west of the Fifth Line south of the selected area Damage to the trees by dust from trucks may
