description When operators look to expand a landfill, physical restrictions can be problematic. This was the case with the Huffman Road Landfill in Toledo, Ohio, which planned to expand in 2003. Although the city had received approval from the Columbus-based Ohio Environmental Protection Agency for a horizontal and vertical expansion, the expansion area was boxed in and there was simply no room for the additional sedimentation pond that was needed. Project engineers needed a solution - and they decided there was nowhere to go but up. After costing-out several options, including a conventional concrete retaining wall, project engineers used a wire-formed retaining wall system manufactured by Tensar Earth Technologies Inc. The system consists of welded wire baskets with an attached geogrid and backfilled with stone.
