There is a proposed plan to use this world famous fossil site and the surrounding area and turn it into a landfill. Fortunately, groups like SC FORCE (a citizen formed organization to oppose the Blythe Recycling and Demolition Site "BRADS") and members of the Army for a Clean Environment have demonstrated against this plan. This landfill, proposed by Blythe Township, would adversely affect St. Clair and surrounding areas by threatening their water supply, air quality, wildlife, recreation and overall quality of life. The landfill would also greatly increase truck traffic and pollution through towns and surrounding communities. And do we really want to lost this precious fossil site?
