Green for Life (GFL) contacted The Conservancy Initiative to inform the community the construction of new gas wells will begin this week at the landfill. The construction of gas wells is a normal process that must take place to replace damaged or non-functioning wells and install new wells as the landfill grows.
The construction of the gas wells and the associated equipment increases the possibilities for odors as a portion of the landfill may be uncovered during the construction. Below is the notice we received.
I am reaching out to inform you all that gas construction at Arbor Hills is set to commence tomorrow, June 23, 2021. The remainder of this week will consist primarily of gas well drilling. During well drilling, in an effort to minimize odors, the contractor will be utilizing a vacuum box to capture fugitive emissions. Beginning next week, the pipe crew is scheduled to arrive to begin vacuum pipe installation. The entire construction project is anticipated to be completed by October 31, 2021.
