And that's the last they think of it. Unless they live in Johnston, where the bulk of it ends up, thanks to the fact the Central Landfill is located in that community. For residents of Johnston, such as Senator Polisena, the state's trash is a never-ending story.
Trash trucks are constantly on the town's roads.
The odor is often more than obvious. The mountain of trash continues to grow. If it were such a great thing to have a landfill in one's backyard, other communities would be clamoring for one. I don't think I'm very far off base to suggest that that's just not happening. Johnston and the Central Landfill will forever be synonymous, as they have been for years, said Senator Polisena.
