Environmental Stewardship at the Facility
Decomposing organic waste in landfills produces landfill gas. Landfill gas is mostly methane, which is a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. It is 21 times more harmful than carbon dioxide’s impact on global warming.
We collect as much of the landfill gas as possible and burn it to create carbon dioxide gas instead. This process reduces the amount of harmful gas released by the landfill by an amount equal to 21,700 cars.
The gas collection system was built in 2012 and cost $7 million, including a $2.5 million contribution from the Province of Manitoba. It was expanded twice, in 2018 and 2020, for a total cost of $4.1 million. The Government of Canada contributed $3.1 million to the expansion projects.
We keep landfill odours contained with berms, daily garbage cell coverage, and biofilters like wood chips. We also plant trees and shrubs along Brady Road and the Perimeter to manage litter and reduce noise.
Annual reports
Our Environment Act Licence requires us to write annual reports for the Province. The reports summarize the previous year’s activities on the site. These include money spent, construction, waste diversion, and site management.
