Community Updates
December 18, 2025
Last week, the MECP issued Environmental Penalties (fines) for five odour events that occurred in the summer of 2025. Two events related to odours caused during waste relocation activities in May and the other three events related to the June 2025 upset condition at the leachate treatment pond and the dredging activities that were required to mitigate the situation.
GFL takes community concerns about odours seriously and is committed to advancing measures to mitigate odours from our facility. We have previously communicated to the community the following steps in the long-term solutions for odour mitigation:
Completion of stockpiled waste relocation activities
Construction of the new, enclosed Leachate Treatment Facility that will allow for the decommissioning of the leachate treatment pond
Stockpiled waste relocation activities are on track to be completed by December 31, 2025. On December 16, 2025, we received authorization from the City permitting us to initiate construction of the Leachate Treatment Facility building. The commissioning of the Facility will be completed in the new year.
The next Community Update will be posted on January 8, 2026. Please note that site operations and odour monitoring will continue throughout the holiday period.
The next Community Update Meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 21st, 2026, starting at 6pm. You can register for the event through the following Zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/TCFZL4eoSj26a7JGw9YRIg
