Residents are advised that the West Grande Prairie Regional Landfill operations will change as of Tuesday, December 12th.
According to the county, the facility will continue accepting the same recycling and waste items from residents; however, on December 12th, users will be required to unload waste into the provided bins at the facility for transfer to the Clairmont Centre for Recycling and Waste Management. Commercial clients will need to take their waste to the Clairmont facility themselves.
The county adds that there will be no impact on residential curbside collection, and the changes result from an examination that revealed a “lower-than-expected” cell capacity at the West Grande Prairie Regional Landfill.
The county says further study is required to assess the need, feasibility, and costs of additional cell space for waste management.
