The Division is responsible for planning, development and oversight of the solid waste collection, disposal and recycling activities within the Town Solid Waste Management Planning Unit. It is our goal to provide reliable solid waste management for wastes generated within the Town, while providing a high level of protection for public health and the environment. The Town’s initial Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP) was prepared in 1992 and it called for waste reduction and recycling as well as further development of the Town Landfill to provide long term, local solid waste disposal capacity. In 2009 an update to the SWMP was adopted and it included new provisions for promoting waste reduction and increasing recycling as well as providing for continued long term solid waste disposal capacity at the Colonie Landfill through the development of Landfill Area 7. In 2011 the Town entered into an operating agreement with Capital Region Landfills (CRL) to operate the Town of Colonie Landfill and they began operating the facility in September of 2017. In accordance with the adopted Solid Waste Management Plan the Town, in conjunction with CRL, submitted a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) and the necessary applications to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) in 2015 for permits to develop Landfill Area 7 at the existing landfill site.

In August of 2016 the NYSDEC deemed the Area 7 Landfill Development DEIS and associated applications (solid waste management permit, air quality permit, and wetlands permit) complete. Public Notices of Completion were published August 24, 2016 in the Times Union and the DEC Environmental Notice Bulletin. To allow for additional public input on the project the published notices also include notice of a 45-day Public Comment Period ending on October 7, 2016 (extended to November 1, 2016) and notice of a NYS Department of Environmental Conservation Public Comment Hearing scheduled for 6 pm on Tuesday, September 20, 2016 at the Shaker High School Auditorium. Click here and here to view the notices. A second Legislative Public Comment Hearing regarding this proposed landfill project is scheduled for Tuesday, October 25, 2016 at the Shaker High School auditorium, located at 445 Watervliet Shaker Rd, Latham, NY, starting at 6:00 p.m. to receive unsworn statements from the public.

Despite the ruination her anger has caused, Anna says she has no regrets. "I actually wish I knew I had this ability sooner!" Anna laughs.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
