However. if efficient waste management policies are implemented the site may well last into the wrves the communities of Kitchener, Wellesley and Wilmot. being considered is whether a Imam-e adiaceot farm should be pun'hased to provide space for future facility expansimr . _ The region will spend 554.000 this year to undertake the study and has set aside $487,000 to finance its completion in [984. As well, ”13.000 will be spent on work at regional landfill sites this year. including some $st.006 to drill wells at the Waterloo facility to determine whether there has been migration onto neighbouring lands.

The region has scheduled at meetings with local and regional councils, the project team and special interest groups over the next two years to obtain input " preparation of the master plan. In a report to the engineering committee regional engineers wrote that "the disposal of wastes is an expensive business and as we as a society continue in over-package and avoid opportunities to recycle and reuse, we must be willing to pay for the consequenu-~._ Waste disposal cannot be taken lightly because space and the environment are too valuable. "Through the'course of the next tth, years. engineering committee and regional council will be making difficult and far-reaching decisions on waste management within this region which involve millions of dollars in expendi lures to ensure and protect the future." Once the plan is finalized it will be the subject of public examination and discussion through a series of environ! mental assessment hearings. c "Fwy A/t CW" and " FRI!
