Good Fences Make Good Neighbours

"When it comes to controlling litter, good fences make good neighbours"   Neil Bolton is a consultant that specializes in landfill operations.  He also writes for MSW Management.   This is a link to an article he wrote and that was published in the October 2004 issue.

Wind Patrol - Litter Fence

In this article, Mr. Bolton talks about portable fences and the importance of placing them to be effective.  He also talks about using wind break fencing materials to reduce wind speed and turbulence.  The article discusses litter retrieval and how to deploy staff assigned to picking litter.

In future posts, we'll show wind patterns that affect landfill operations, and we'll show the use of litter catch fences and wind breaks.   Mr. Bolton's article is a good lead into these topics.
