Deny the Permit for Landfill Next to Forest Lake State Park, NH

Right now, a landfill is proposed next to Forest Lake State Park in Dalton, NH, in the Ammonoosuc River watershed. This landfill would destroy 17 acres of wetlands alone.

But one of the biggest fears is that when this landfill leaks—as all landfills eventually do—it could pollute Forest Lake State Park, a well-loved park that neighbors have been enjoying for generations. It also threatens the Ammonoosuc River and downstream communities’ water supplies.

That’s why we need to call on the NH Department of Environmental Services to deny the permit to this dangerous landfill. Send a letter to DES by September 13, 2021 to make your voice heard!
