Land for new dump site COULD deal with county One of the four sites being considered as the possible site of this area's next dump would not have to be ex- propriated. Three of the sites are privately owned. The fourth, on Tiny Town- ship's Concession 4, is a reforestation area Owned by Simcoe County. If that site is the one which the North Simcoe Sanitary Landfill Committee concludes is the best site of the 40 which it has considered, and the _ provincial Environmental Asse- ssment Board approves an application for use of that property for a dump, the township can buy the land from the county, swap some land which it already owns, or buy some land and trade it with the county. The township isn't allowed to buy a piece of property in advance of making an application, or apply to open a dump on property which _ it already owns. Once it has permission to open a dump, it can then obtain the land. Legislation permits expropriation, if necessary, to be settled simultaneously with the decision on an application. Objections to an application are considered as well at the same hearing. Clay the best but rare in this area Water in the ground will move one inch in 50 years through clay, says the chairman of the committee charged with finding a new dump to last this area for at least 20 years. Unfortunately clay is not common in the Tiny- Tay penninsula, and not predominant in any of the four sites being considered by the committee which Tiny Township Reeve John Lackie chairs. That the ground in Tiny Township and Tay Township is mainly sand creates a problem, says Doug Jagger, of Gartner Lee Associates Ltd., the hydrogeological firm working for the North Simcoe Sanitary Landfill Committee. One way of containing water seeping from a dump is to first lay a network of pipes un- derground which would collect the seepage and carry it to a collection point, he says. Domestic garbage doesn't carry much liquid, he said. Rainfall during the operation of the dump, per year, is estimated to be 18 inches, and, after closure of the dump, six inches.
