cility, I can report today that county officials have
issued both a stop order and a remedial order for
the site,” said Brian Henderson, Wheatland County
interim chief administrative officer, on July 2.
The county served a stop work order under a
breach of the nuisance bylaw. It prevents GFL from
receiving any feedstock or organics and demands a
stop to storing waste at the site.
Previous water tests showed toxins had entered
Play ball the water table. The tests were requested two years
ago, and the results are now available.
The stop order also allows an independent en-
vironmental consultant to do inspections and set
steps to fix the problems. Any hazardous materials
will be identified, and orders were given to safely
dispose of the hazardous material and protect resi-
dents. There will be 24-hour monitoring at the site.
“That’s a positive step ahead, that is for sure,”
said Colin Huxted, member and spokesperson with
Neighbours Against Pollution (NAP). “We have been

Town practices emergency management

The Town of Strathmore held an emergency management exercise at the Strathmore Municipal Library
on July 4 to evaluate how well prepared they are in case there is an emergency event in Strathmore July 23 6pm 95 Brent Blvd
such as a tornado, severe weather or bomb threat. A real-time made-up scenario was played out (With a second date TBA)
and different departments from the town such as logistics, planning, operations and finance worked
together with municipal enforcement and other user groups to come up with a solution on how best to
handle a crisis event. The exercise will be made an annual practice to ensure the required departments
have the best and most up-to-date training to handle any emergency event.
