Club 3000 - Ohio Landfills

01/10/2008 - Liquid waste from Countywide has leaked onto an “unauthorized area”, contaminating an area roughly half the size of a football field on the landfill’s south slope. Republic Waste spokesman Will Flower said that landfill staff suspected this might happen but they were “too busy dealing with the odor problems” to deal with the situation. Also of note: the EPA ordered gas probes installed due to concerns that excess methane may be escaping through a breach in the landfill liner. See article in the Times-Reporter.
