St. Louis Public Radio has been following developments at a landfill complex in St. Louis County, where for five years an underground fire has been smoldering at the Bridgeton Landfill, about 1,000 feet away from radioactive waste at the adjacent West Lake Landfill.
The situation is unique, and we thought it merited national attention. You can listen to our national update below, or read the story at npr.org.
If you're new to the landfill issues or have questions about the situation, please check out our FAQ for more information. And stay tuned to St. Louis Public Radio and stlpublicradio.org for future landfill news and analysis.
