We oppose siting a waste transfer station in rural Orange County. Orange County should immediately terminate all work on a WTS on rural West Hwy 54. Instead we suggest that the county seek an alternative site in a commercial industrial area, close to or in town, near a highway (I-40 or I-85), with water, sewer and preferably near power lines and rail. Any site selected should be part of plan to move to a sustainable waste management solution for the long term. Vendor transfer stations should be used to handle the county's needs until an alternative site is selected.
The reach of this petition has hit a point where local officials can no longer ignore our proposal for a commercial industrial site. I am currently preparing formal correspondence for the County Board to ensure they review our suggested alternative locations before they consider any action on the Hwy 54 project.

Think about the property values. Nobody wants to buy a house next to a waste station.

Keep our rural areas clean. Nobody wants a trash dump right in their backyard when there are better places to put it.
