Village of Sedley - Landfill Cell Decommission Project

pre-construction

Prospective

The project objective is to decommission and reclaim the landfill of the Village of Sedley, non-compliant with the best management practices for landfill construction. Landfill has a surface area of 0.21 hectares and was permitted to only receive municipal waste during its operation. Environmental Site Assessment Level II and the Corrective Action Plan have been already completed; therefore, the scope of the project include completing and implementing a Decommissioning and Reclamation plan that is acceptable to the Ministry of Environment’s Landfill Section. Decommissioning and Reclamation activities include the design and construction of the final engineered cover, storm water management, removal of existing infrastructure, recycling, metal, concrete, clean wood piles, installation of monitoring wells, and reclamation activities to ensure it is in conformance with the surrounding lands and the future intended use. Landfill will be converted to a transfer station where bins will only be used. Reclaimed landfill will be owned by Village of Sedley with the intended use of a transfer station. Decommissioning and reclamation of the proposed landfill will attenuate the generation of leachate which in turn increases capacity to reduce soil pollutants in line with the Environmental Quality Outcomes of the Green Infrastructure Stream of the ICIP.
