Tisdale Regional Landfill one of 12 projects receiving funding from provincial and federal government
The Town of Tisdale and its regional landfill is one of 12 recipients of funding from the Canadian government and Saskatchewan under the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program.
On Wednesday, Sept. 4 the governments announced the $32 million of funding will be committed to the projects that include the Town of Tisdale’s Regional Landfill Expansion. Town of Tisdale CAO Brad Hvidston said the funding is huge for them and their partners involved in the landfill.
“With the new environmental regulations and things being tougher and tougher to manage your own landfill,” Hvidston told northeastNOW. “Regional landfills just makes more sense.”
The project includes a new landfill cell and leachate pond to control some of the water runoff, a new compost area, and the equipment associated with keeping those running.
