Campbell River Landfill Closure

Work continues on the design of Phase II to close the existing Campbell River landfill. It is expected Phase II will be tender ready in the fall of 2015. Staff are currently addressing updates by the BC Ministry of Environment to the landfill criteria for municipal solid waste. The entire shutdown is expected to cost $10 million and will be completed by 2018.
