The Madison County Journal is reporting that Judge William Lutz has affirmed the Mississippi Department of Enviromental Quality's position that allows for a third landfill in Madison County. Hinds County had appealed the five-year-old state commission ruling that approved Madison County’s solid waste management plan.
The addition to the plan of a proposed landfill on North County Line, next to the existing Little Dixie landfill was approved by the Commission on Environmental Quality in 2005, but Hinds County appealed that decision to Hinds County Chancery Court. Judge Lutz, a former Madison County Chancery judge, heard arguments from both sides Monday.
