Rather than asking Missoula area residents to save up their household hazardous waste such as paint and disposing of them quarterly, the City of Missoula has proposed its own new facility.
The City of Missoula began a poplar tree plantation project for the land application of treated wastewater in 2009. Because of it's success, on Thursday, officials unveiled the expansion of the project to over 160 acres, located adjacent to the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
