"Mount Trashmore" How did a landfill become a recreation destination?
www.thegazette.com Curious Iowa: How did a landfill become a recreation destination?
In this week’s edition of Curious Iowa, The Gazette looks at why a landfill was built on the doorstep of Czech Village, how Cedar Rapids Linn County Solid Waste Agency developed a landfill into a hub of nature trails and what will happen when the county’s current landfill reaches capacity.
"Additionally, Mount Trashmore has monitoring wells that collect and handle the leachate — a sort of garbage juice created when organic matter breaks down — in a sanitary manner."
Delightful!
