Proposed Dump Sites Get Further Inspection

The Ministry of Natural Resources will be back before the public this fall with a preferred plan to replace a landfill site in Mine Centre.

Spokesperson Cheryl Gartley says four potential sites have been identified that will get a further look by consultants.

"They'll be looking at things like the topography, doing some hydrology studies, digging some soil test pits and things like that," says Gartley, "to help them make decisions and narrow down the choices."

Gartley says a transfer station that would take waste to the Fort Frances landfill is also being considered.
