The Township of Brick and the US Environmental Protection Agency have reached an agreement regarding the remediation of the landfill located on Sally Ike Road. In accordance with the agreement, the Township will install a landfill cap over areas containing waste and continue monitoring the groundwater to protect human health. Upon installation of the landfill cap, the Township will install a solar panel field to generate approximately 7.5MW of renewable electricity for the benefit of the Township and its citizens.
During the next few months, the Township’s engineering consultant will conduct site investigations at the site in preparation for the cap installation. The EPA will oversee the work to assure continued protection of the environment and residents. Construction of the landfill cap will start soon after EPA has reviewed and approved the plans for the redevelopment of the landfill.
The Township’s Planning Board has declared the site to be in need for redevelopment, and the Redevelopment Plan will be brought for a second reading before the Council on May 4 at 8:00pm. The EPA Case Manager and the engineering Project Manager will be at the meeting, available to answer questions from the Council and interested public.
