Abstract |
Sanitary landfills can cause considerable harm to sensitive ecosystems if they are not properly located, designed, and managed. The purpose of the report is to evaluate and compare the proximity of 1,153 sanitary landfills in 11 states (Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Washington) to wetlands and deepwater habitats (i.e., rivers, lakes, streams, bays, etc.). The nearness or proximity of the sanitary landfills to wetlands and deepwater habitats was determined by drawing three concentric regions around the point representing the location of each landfill. The radii of the concentric regions were: 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, and 1 mile. Almost all of the sanitary landfills are located in or are close to either wetlands or deepwater habitats. |
