Times-Advocate, 1982-12-15, Page 3Heastill dump site should meet requiremefltS Hensall's landfill site was the focus of the first meeting of the new Hensall council, Monday. Steven Bruns of B.M. Ross and Associates in- formed thn council of a pro- posed Operations and Management Plan for the site to be sent to the ministry of the environment for approval. The plan is designed to con- form with stiffer guidelines presented by the ministry to Ontario muncipalities operating land fill sites in the province and includes a water table study and projected operating study. According to Burns, the study, started in October 1981 is required to meet ministry guidelines for operation and licensing. He told council that the Hensall site did not pose ,a hazard at present and ex- plained that environmental problems should not halt the continuing operation for the remainder of the life of the site estimated at approx- imately 30 years. Burns told the council that water samples taken from various wells and from Black Creek revealed no contamina- tion from the landfill into the water table. "The site is not presenting any environmental problems to adjacent properties," he told the members. However, he admitted that possible pollutants leaching into the creek could present problems in the future and as a result a buffer zone being Stephen • Continued from front page Board - Douglas Lightfoot, explained that the cost to Mrs. Eleanor Roeszler, Fred council of yearly monitoring Bowers, Louise Wein, Mrs. win be approximately $250 to Mary.
