EAC Issues Annual Report to Council

Kenora's Environmental Advisory Committee is raising some concerns about the city's landfill site.

Teika Newton presented the committee's annual report this week.

She says while there is still lots of life left in the Jones Road Landfill site, the dump isn't bottomless.

Newton says the landfill initially had a life span of 40 years, but that could be extended if more waste can be diverted.
