Proposal details

This proposal is to amend the existing Environmental Compliance Approval (waste disposal site) No. A181008 for approval of construction of a new Leachate Treatment System (LTS) to replace the existing treatment system.

The primary purpose and function of the LTS is to remove odour from the leachate collected through the leachate collection system prior to discharge to the sanitary sewer network.

The site receives a maximum of 8,000 tonnes per day, for the disposal of commercial and non-hazardous solid industrial waste. The maximum volume of waste and cover material, excluding final cover, which may be disposed of at the Stoney Creek (former Taro East) Landfill Site is 6,320,000 cubic metres and will serve the City of Hamilton.

The facility accepts waste Monday through Friday between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. and is closed weekends and statutory holidays.
