We are honored to have been chosen for this award, which was in recognition of the leadership that Friends provided in coordinating opposition to the reopening of the NABORS landfill.  The effort is a wonderful example of how local and state government, together with numerous public groups and private citizens, worked diligently to prevent the landfill from reopening.
