What is a dump? What is a sanitary landfill?

Most people confuse today’s sanitary landfills with old, unregulated “dumps” that can still be found in some parts of Pennsylvania. Because “dumps” were not regulated, they often caused air and water pollution. SECCRA is a regulated, sanitary landfill where every precaution is taken to ensure that no pollution occurs on or off-site. SECCRA has operated its landfill in London Grove Township since 1986, with no off-site impact to air or water quality.
