Our metro landfill (which handles trash for 5 counties) has contracted scrappers that are allowed to take items from the "rubble" sites (no working up on the main fill area allowed). I should find out more how that (those) contract(s) is (are) award just for grins...
P.S. I would have let the auction ride and find out what happened. Who knows how it would have turned out?? But that's just me.
Your right these are all small town dumps that cover garbage with dirt, have a burn pit and a metal pile.
If there is an Indian reservation close by the Natives
are not permitted to use the white boys landfill, they have to maintain their own site. And the natives burn everything including appliances. I for one would like to see this changed but it is doubtful it ever will as we have a provincially funded town landfill while the Natives get their funding from the Federal Government.
My observations from living here in Manitoba eight years is the cancer rate per capita is extremely high and the number of children and young adults who have some form of retardation just blows me away.
Even our dog gets bottled water he wont drink this crap coming from the tap.
