WPCNR THE GREEN NEWS. September 28, 2011:
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation press officer Wendy Rosenbach informed WPCNR the department will be giving final approval to a plan for the city to close the Gedney Landfill “shortly,” Rosenbach told WPCNR, with a few minor changes..
Final approval for capping the dump and prevention of TCE leakage into the Mamroneck River adjacent the dump, will allow Commissioner of Public Works Joseph Nicoletti to send the entire project out for bid, which has not been done yet, pending the final approval, (as recently told WPCNR by City Chief of Staff John Callahan).
Estimates for the closure plan two years ago set the cost to the city as $8 to $10 Million, which may raise city debt service in the new budget.
The Final Approval will also allow the city to begin its total resodding of the Our Lady of Sorrows baseball field adjacent the dump to create a soil buffer between the TCE-contaminated soil in the field and athletes playing on the surface.
