Tara Murray A report on the Kealba Landfill hotspot fires has found the fires have had a ‘high’ impact on the wellbeing of neighbouring residents. An Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) report into the effects of the hotspots, which was requested by St Albans MP Natalie Natalie Suleyman in December, was released last week. The report said the hotspots were likely to be a result of oxygen which had ingressed into the landfill due to the design of the cells within the former quarry, combusting with old, decomposed waste. The report said the risk of impacts to human health from air emissions released by the hotspots has been found to be low, based on air quality monitoring.
