Officials in New Jersey have signed an agreement to cap the Keegan Landfill in Kearny, N.J., and dedicate the site to “public passive recreation,” The Jersey Journal reports.
The agreement provides a timeline for the site to be capped, which is slated for completion in October 2021. Kearny Mayor Alberto G. Santos stated that the final order reflects the agreement reached with the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, which owns and operates the landfill, in early January.
