The issue of general pollution.
From time
to time, landfill sites, do catch fire creating major air pollution issues. No
landholders to the East of the landfill and West of York have a reticulated
water supply. Everyone collects their own water from roofs or dams and stores
it in tanks. A fire in a landfill would compromise the quality of the water and
possibly jeopardise people’s health. There are issues with birds settling on
evaporation ponds storing the leachate. Not a very healthy proposition for the
birds and a distinct possibility of spreading salmonella and other nasties to
surrounding properties.
