St. Bernard Parish deserves better than having the entrance to our parish marred by a garbage site. The diminished reputation of SDT and its sour relations with St. Bernard have been established. SDT claims that approximately 20 trucks a day will use the site. In fact, the actual number is closer to 175 trucks per day based on a two week average. Can SDT be trusted with our future?.Let your councilman know that this massive garbage site will not be a monument to economic development, but a tombstone for all elected officials who support this effort.. Attend the Parish Council meeting November 18, 2008 at 11:00 A.M. to oppose Council approval of this garbage transfer site. Submit written comments to the council by November 25, 2008. Keep in mind that this has already received approval from the Planning commission
