The Coalition for a Clean Dan River Region, which is a chapter of the Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League, was formed in 2020 by a group of concerned citizens living near the First Piedmont Landfill in Ringold, VA.

They have developed a feedback tool to help them better understand and document just how many people are affected, and to help them advocate for the types of improvements that will keep the community safe. The information collected is being used to create a map showing the reach of the landfill’s impacts.

• If you live in or visit the area and have been impacted by the landfill, please share your experience in this anonymous survey
• See the reported impacts on the map here
