N.C. Counties Consider New Area for C&D Landfill

City-County Utilities Division survey possible locations.

 

County officials in Forsyth and Stokes County (N.C.) are still planning to build a construction demolition debris landfill, but not at the original site near Walkerton, N.C., according to a report in the Winston-Salem Journal (Winston-Salem, N.C.)

 

Officials are considering a 384-acre piece of land that stretches across Forsyth and Stokes counties after the original plan to build the C&D landfill on a 382-acre site near Walkerton drew complaints and criticism from some residents.

 

A request to rezone the land could be filed with the City-County Planning Department within the next few months, although it could take up to two years for the landfill to actually be opened, according to the report.

 

Final approval would have to come from the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners.
