Tuesday April 23rd is the semi-annual Riverbend Air Quality Meeting -- time to talk smell!
Waste Management has been quizzing school groups that come to the dump. While the children are at the bottom of the trash mound, they are asked "How does it smell?" At the bottom the smell is not so bad, so when the kids say they can't smell anything, Waste Management turns their statements into an ad. WM personnel don't ask the kids what the smell is like at the top of Dump Mountain or on the road or at Linfield College or Sue Buel School, Albertson's, or Roth's. That is where you come in, because you know how bad the dump smells at all those places.
Keep the pressure on DEQ -- let them know the smell isn't getting any better.
Pizza at 6:00, Meeting at 7:00
