I recall my numerous bike rides at Chesebro in Agoura. There is a landfill there, but I can only think of one time I smelled it.
Why can this landfill in Agoura control odors and Chiquita Canyon Landfill cannot?
One may reason that it’s too expensive? It may also require additional work? Or could it be that the owners do care about the community and they are not doing everything in their power to control the odors?
While we’re on the subject, why can Chiquita Canyon Landfill accept 3,600 tons of sludge, which is against their use permit, but people feel it’s okay, since a fine was not imposed? I thought a Notice of Violation meant something?
Bottom line is that the illegal sludge is still in the Chiquita Canyon Landfill, all 3,600 tons of it. The community was promised that they would not accept this unwanted sludge, but they did. Ventura County banned it from the landfill and Chiquita swooped in to take it and the money, all $165,000.00 of it! Let me repeat that, $165,000.00 for taking in something that they promised they wouldn’t and was prohibited from accepting by the permit with the County of Los Angeles.
Darryl, you are definitely on to something.
Gosh give it up please!!!
– I have been told that the smell between Ralph’s and Commerce Drive is from the Chiquita Canyon Landfill.
– If this is true, why do the residents of Hasley Hills and Live Oak put up with it?
– Are they unaware of the origin of the odors?
– Do they know that they can call the AQMD at 1-800-CUT-SMOG 24 hours a day to file a complaint?
– Do they know that the PR rep for Chiquita Canyon Landfill tells people that it comes from the sewage treatment plant near Magic Mountain?
– For those real estate professionals, you may want to think twice about supporting the landfill expansion. The height will increase 143 feet and the bulk of the expansion will be toward Hasley Hills and Live Oak.
– I don’t wish the odors on anyone. I just hope the people in Hasley Hills and Live Oak are preparing themselves for it.
