Description

Abstract: Landfills (outlines) are intended to be used as base data to provide context and reference on maps.

Purpose: Approximate boundaries of known possible waste disposal sites within the City of Waterloo, represented as polygons. The boundaries delimiting the spatial extent of these features have been approximated using relevant historical aerial imagery and may or may not accurately reflect the boundaries of these features. The attribute information pertaining to each site has been verified against the Ministry of The Environment's Waste Disposal Site Inventory (1991). These attributes describe the Certificate of Approval for the site, the year the site was closed, and the threat class of the site. Detailed descriptions of the attribute information can be found in the Waste Disposal Site Inventory (ISBN 0-7729-8409-3 / PIBS 256).

· Attribute information pertaining to the waste disposal sites in this dataset can be found in the Ministry of The Environment’s Waste Disposal Site Inventory
