FLOODING!
These are photos of flooded areas near the proposed Cheapeake Terrace Rubble Landfill taken on three different occasions during the last 9 years. Residents of the area have lived with the flooding of these areas for generations. Note that these are not the only times these areas have flooding in the last 9 years.

How safe do you think it is to put a landfill near an area that floods? Take a look at the photos below. You decide!
