| | State OK's landfill expansion | The Star Press - www.thestarpress.com - Muncie, IN (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23) |
 | | The landfill south of Farmland on Randolph County Road 600-S, half a mile east of Ind. 1, primarily serves Randolph, Delaware, Henry, Jay, Madison, and Wayne counties in Indiana, as well as Darke and Miami counties in Ohio. |
 | | The bottom of the landfill will be lined with more than 3 feet of re-compacted clay plus plastic to keep contaminants from entering ground water, according to Randolph Farms. |
 | | Originally, the landfill had asked the BZA to approve an expansion of 174 acres, but that was reduced to 96.5 acres after heavy opposition from residents, who had asked the BZA to keep the landfill "on a short leash." |
