The Department of Environmental Protection Thursday announced it will hold an informational public meeting on August 21 to answer questions regarding the municipal waste application by Community Refuse Service, LLC to modify operations at the Cumberland County Landfill.

The meeting will be held at the North Newton Township Building, 528 Oakville Road in Shippensburg from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Representatives from Community Refuse Service and DEP will be available to answer questions from the public.

The application is for an increase in the average daily volume from the currently permitted 2,500 tons per day to 2,950 tons per day. The increase, if granted, would not add additional capacity to the landfill.
