Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (EIA) for the Siting of a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Facility, Guam

Abstract

The Government of Guam, through the Guam Department of Public Works and Guam Environmental Protection Agency, is proposing to construct a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Facility in Inarajan, Guam to manage Guam's solid waste generated by the island community. Within the landfill parcel, the proposed landfill footprint has been identified and is approximately 126 acres in area. In this Suplemental EIS (SEIS) Dandan refers to the parcel and the name Layon is used to refer to the smaller landfill footprint within the Dandan parcel. This SEIS evaluates three conceptual alternatives for the site layout and development of a MSWLF at Layon, as well as the no action alternative. The document also prescribes a MSWLF at Layon as well as the no action alternative. The document also prescribes mitigation for potentially significant impacts from the preferred conceptual alternative.
