DUMFIRES, Va. — The idea of a new business park in place to be built after a landfill closes was floated in Dumfries on Tuesday.
The Potomac Landfill, a debris collection yard that sits at the junction of Interstate 95 and Va. 234, proposed growing upward, filling in debris piles as tall as 310 feet. If approved by the Town Council, the landfill will maintaining the 38 acres it sits on now and leave at least 19 unused acres untouched in which to build on.
