Bristol Odor Update

Getting rid of that nasty odor in Bristol could take awhile while an installation of devices designed to suck up gas and water build-up deep inside the Bristol, Virginia Solid Waste Management Facility could be complete by early October, and that could mean some reduction in the pungent odors bothering residents surrounding the landfill.The city, in conjunction with contract Draper Aden Associates, has started the process of installing 17 new gas wells that extract gas and water trapped inside the landfill.
