According to a draft Terms of Reference (ToR) prepared as part of the Mayer Waste Disposal Site Environmental Assessment, at the current rate of use and with the current space, the landfill could operate for another six to seven years. The expansion would give the landfill site another 20 years of life<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Yannick Mayer, manager of Mayer Sanitation, said the process to expand the landfill may take three to five years and had to begin now.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Mayer said the landfill has not been taking in larger amounts of waste in the past years. In fact, the landfill site began sorting and transferring out recyclable materials in 2016, reducing the amount of waste being diverted to the landfill. Mayer Sanitation is also planning to install a liner under the landfill expansion to avoid groundwater contamination.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">While the draft Terms of Reference states the expansion will help the company respond to a growing market demand and \u201ctake advantage of economic opportunities\u201d, Mayer said he does not expect the landfill will receive more waste from municipalities outside the United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR), but said he is willing to take on more waste from within the UCPR, if necessary.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u201cWe\u2019re not planning to import trash from the city of Toronto like other landfills in the region do,\u201d said Mayer.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Mayer does not believe his landfill has been at fault for the smell in the surrounding area. He said East Hawkesbury residents are likely smelling the Mironor compost facility located nearly three kilometres from Chute-\u00e0-Blondeau across the Ottawa river in Brownsburg. The compost facility, which manages food waste from Laval\u2019s 383,417 residents, has received $5 million in financing for the expansion of its facilities, allowing it to process nearly 30 000 tons of organic matter every year. The first phase of the expansion was completed in 2023.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Seeking alternatives<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:2,&quot;335551620&quot;:2,&quot;335559731&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Kelley believes the region should look into building a waste-to-energy plant, also known as an incineration plant, to process solid waste and transform it into energy through combustion. Radiant heat produced by burning waste serves in boiling water, creating steam to make power energy turbines.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">While these waste disposal facilities have systems in place to filter parts of the CO<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">2<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\"> and other gas emissions produced by waste combustion, they do not eliminate all greenhouse gases and other toxic emissions from the smokestack.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The cost to build one such plant is in the hundreds of millions of dollars. One incineration plant built in the Durham region near Toronto, cost nearly $300 million to build, a figure far outside the budget of a municipality of the size of East Hawkesbury. The Durham plant processes 140,000 tonnes of garbage each year and can power around 10,000 homes.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Incineration is also being looked at by the city of Ottawa as the city\u2019s landfill is quickly running out of space.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559731&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Next Steps<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:2,&quot;335551620&quot;:2,&quot;335559731&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The draft ToR can be read at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mayerexpansionea.com\/project-reportscanwill\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">https:\/\/mayerexpansionea.com\/project-reportscanwill<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\"> and comments can be sent through email at <\/span><a href=\"mailto:MayerEA@ghd.com\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">MayerEA@ghd.com<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\"> until December 8<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">th<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">.
