The city of Grafton, N.D., will not reopen an inert landfill it created after the Flood of 1997.
A December inspection by the North Dakota Department of Health cited site suitability and operational issues.
"Grafton's Inert Waste Landfill is disposing waste into a wetland," Diana Trussell, environmental engineer with the state department's waste management division, wrote in a December letter to the city. "It appears waste has been pushed into standing water in the wetland for a number of years."
