Sounds like they are cleaning up the landfill and can excuse the expenditure by citing concerns over missing women, to me. But I have grown very cynical over the decades, owing to seeing that shit all the time. This time it's probably different though, who knows, sometimes experience gets it wrong. Like, there is always a slight rounding error representing acts that could hypothetically be ascribed to goodwill and responsibility.
I would like to see exactly how they are allocating these funds, which contractors they are going to employ, and what the search will entail visavis manpower, equipment, logistics. $40M goes fast. Surely they will have to move a lot of garbage around, and they will have to move it into something and do something with it. So it's gonna be a landfill cleanup on the taxpayer's buck, instead of the corps' who are involved running them.
Edit: >privately owned Prairie Green landfill
Yeah gee I would probably start asking questions at this point, but who wants to be a conspiratorial nutcase, right.
