Landfill ALERT: Williamson County Airport (KMWA)

Marion, IL
Wed, Jun 18, 2008


This message is to alert you to an OPEN MEETING with the County Commissioners at the WILLIAMSON COUNTY PAVILION on MONDAY, JUNE 23 at 6:00pm.

The meeting concerns a dump being built along Skyline Drive, just east of MWA airport.

The Chicago owner of the landfill has petitioned to include household waste in the trash (great bird attraction).

A railroad is adjacent to the site makes it convenient and profitable to bring in trash from all over the state.

The site is directly beneath the east downwind flight pattern for runways 2-20.

The lawyers are well aware of the FAA ruling about landfills in proximity of an airport, but are still pursuing their objective.

Attendance at the meeting is encouraged.

Landfill in proximity of airport increases chances of bird strike!
