Both consultants came to the same
conclusion -p Huron County does not
need to develop the proposed A3 land
fill site near Ashfield:
In summary, they told the county to.
take .responsibility for a county -wide

nator Craig Metzger said, he was not`
surpiised by the findings of the: alterna-
tives study -which essentially nullify the
X1.4 -million already spent on "dcvcl'np-
ing a new Huron County landfill ab a
process which was started in 1988.
The County will now have to look
seriously at the waste managornent ree
oomrncndations made by the consultants.
.Although the county had not consid-
ered an alternatives study as part of its
WIVIML process, Metzger said they
now realize what the cheapest, most
efficient options
at
86 . h r: we should concentrate
our efforts, said

is whether to mothball the site; or forget
about it completely.
e
said the expense of trying to find
a suitable landfill site may seem like
wasted money, but it has to eousid4
cred in the light of the changing tech..
nologies; provincial regulations and'
increased public environmental 'aware.ness
He agreed that when the WMMI'
process began eight years ago, higher
levels of county waste, less recycling
and limited waste management options,
