We get Leachate! Hooray!??
No, it is not some Italian delicacies. This is some real bad stuff which not many people would want to come in contact with. Perhaps the definition below would shed you some light of what leachate actually is.
“Leach'ate (noun) a liquid that has percolated through or out of some substance; a liquid that has been polluted or made toxic by percolating through rubbish; a solution obtained by leaching.”
The United States EPA provides a more specific definition:
"Leachate is any liquid including any suspended components in the liquid, that has percolated through or drained from hazardous waste."Leachate leaks and drips from the "BIG BAD BIN" and flows all the way downhill (did I mention that we are situated on an elevated land) staining the black asphalt road to brown. Needless to say, the stench is unbearable particularly to those unit closest to the bin. To make matter worse, it attracts a large swarm of unwanted buzzing visitors, FLIES!!! God knows what will come next?
= MAGGOTS FROM THE BIG BAD BIN!
Majlis Perbandaran Selayang (aka MPS), we know you are well aware of the issues that are going on here in Selayang Heights and we have written in our complaints to you. Please don't close your eye and ears on this. Money from the maggots are not worth the people's vote!
