What would the monofill look like from my property as well as public areas?
For the EIS, we are preparing computer simulations of the proposed monofill. Some of these simulations were included on the boards presented at the September 7, 2004 public meeting. In general, the height of the monofill should be low enough, when compared to the existing trees planned to remain along the Dalecarlia Boulevard side of the monofill, to minimize any visual impact from public view along Dalecarlia Parkway or from residential areas immediately north of the proposed monofill. The minimum width of the proposed tree buffer area along Dalecarlia Parkway will be 100 feet, screening the monofill from view during months when the trees are not dormant. The inside face of the tree buffer surrounding the entire monofill would also be lined with evergreen trees to maintain a visual screen during the winter months. We expect that the homes located on the hill overlooking the proposed monofill from the northwest (i.e., such as homes located on Chalfont Place) will have a direct view of
