The landfill environmental management system that we have in place follows stringent Ontario Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) regulations. We continuously review and update our operational programs in concert with the Ministry to ensure environmental protection and to prevent issues such as litter, birds, odour, dust and traffic from being a nuisance to our neighbours and the community. We also work closely with the Ridge Landfill Liaison Committee and its members who have been very helpful in providing input on a wide range of operational and planning programs that we believe have improved the operation of the landfill.
