A local group will hold an information meeting in Wallaceburg later today on a proposed landfill expansion north of Dresden.
Dresden Citizens Against Reckless Environmental Disposal (C.A.R.E.D.) will hold a public information session on Monday at the UAW Hall on Elm Street beginning at 6 p.m.
The public meeting will include a presentation to provide attendees with all the facts about the proposed reopening and expansion of a dormant landfill on Irish School Road.
York1 Environmental Waste Solutions, which owns the property, has made two applications to the Environment Ministry to amend the existing Environmental Compliance Approval for the landfill site, which has not been in operation since the 1980s.
The plan has drawn significant criticism from local residents, municipal officials and environmental groups.
