He said he fears the regional dump may end up in this area "by default, since the other four sites have provincial interest." Mayor Diane Hamre would rather rather not see the dump here, either, even if it comes through default. "We have had our share of garbage," garbage," she told IWA representatives and the residents. "We have played host to the Darlington Landfill and the Hale dump. "We have the Port Granby low level nuclear waste. This is not a case of NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) -- we want a break," Mayor Hamre stated. Ward Three Regional Councillor Ann Dreslinski prefaced her questions, questions, with the. statement "We don't have any coffee for you -- but we have plenty of milk and we hope to stay that way." Councillor Dreslinski asked what would be the social impact on New- tonville homes along a garbage haulage route. The consultant from 1ER: Planning, Planning, Research and Management Services told her the impact would be the lowest of any of the sites looked at. Councillor Dreslinski pointed out to those in the hall that if a landfill site was put on Stapleton Road next to the existing dump, there would be about 700 vehicle trips per day.
