Do you believe Humboldt County should allow the proposed Jungo Road Landfill?

In my opinion the Jungo landfill project should have never gotten to the point we are currently at. We have allowed a company with a dubious background to treat our planning officials the same way they would treat third world War Lords. What usually happens in a situation like this is a few individuals make a lot of money and the people and the community/country suffer in the long run.

California needs to deal with there own waste. Out of state land owers want to make big bucks on low cost land and the land is right here in Humboldt county. This is our land! this is not the type of business we need here in the Winnemucca area! Keep your trash - we do not need your cash! We need to be clean and run this County right and get the right type of business here. No Trash Trains for us

This whole concept of moving waste from one state to another is totally unacceptable. Nevada is not a dumpng ground for nuclear waste or toxic garbage from California. We as citizens of Humboldt County cannot and will not stand for for this landfill proposal to stand. It is quite apparent that most of our elected officials are taking a proactive stance against this ugly situation. As indicated in a channel news 4 article, a company known as Fulcrum BioEnergy is going to import garbage to Storey county and process bio-fuel, "wow" what a great concept, making fuel from garbage. If only Recology could employ such a concept. No, they just want to bring it in and leave it, while making money at our expense, dammed the environment and everybody else who try and get in their way. Rod Nelms UTU/SLD-NV

No california trash. We have our own trash.

I have rented a 50 acre parcel of land to retire on. This landfill would literaly be in my front yard. Since any water source available to me would be impacted by this dump and all of the other negative impact I strongly disagree with its aproval. We are already dealing with fish from Rye Patch being tainted with heavy metals do we want to decimate the entire water system that flows into Rye Patch and on down the Humbolt River. Part of the reason we selected this parcel of land was the spectacular view of Desert Valley. The proposed dump site is within 1 mile not a good thing. Maybe the county commisioners should rethink their decision and come to their senses.

I attempted to vote No, on your survey, when I clicked on, "vote here," it took me to the thank you for voting page. I attempted this several times with the same result, it jumps from the vote here, to the thank you for voting page. The Yes or No page does not open. Gene

PS: I plan on attentding you meetings and taking an active role in fighting against the dump, so please advise me of meetings or any other way I may be of assistance.

The fact that an ordinance amending CHAPTER 13.12 OF HUMBOLDT COUNTY CODE (HCC); AUTHORIZING ACCEPTANCE OF SOLID WASTE FROM OUTSIDE THE LANDFILL DISTRICT FOR DISPOSAL AT SITES OTHER THAN HUMBOLDT COUNTY REGIONAL LANDFILL; PROVIDING FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF FEES FOR ACCEPTANCE OF SOLID WASTE FROM OUTSIDE THE LANDFILL DISTRICT; AND, PROVIDING OTHER MATTERS PROPERLY RELATED THERETO.
was voted on and passed is beyond comprehension. I know I would have never voted for such thing-knowing this would happen. It will be quite awhile before the garbage would be shipped in and for alot of us, should I say older generation would not feel the effects of this travesty. But the reason we live here is quality of life. I for one would not want to leave this to my children and grandchildren to look back on us and say, WHAT WERE THEY THINKING-MONEY?!! JOBS?!! 25-35 jobs, and I don't believe that would be from the locals-Recology has to bringing there own in-they are such experts.
I for one am against this landfill-thers plenty of room in CA for there own garbage-they'll just have to pay more to dump it

I live in Lovelock. The Humboldt River flows downhill from Winnemucca to Rye Patch Res. to the water intake for Lovelock. That makes Jungo Flats uphill from the water intake. Recology says that that water would have to flow uphill to pose a contamination problem. They either don't know or are just lying. I lived by a land fill in Oregon for 25 years, and I at least have an idea of what happens when tons of garbage is stacked up every day. I don't think people in Humboldt county understand what they are dealing with. Long term contamination and ruin of the environment is the deal. Humboldt County officials have no right to act as though this concerns only them. That is why I will vote in this as a resident of Pershing County. This is too big for that county office to decide.
