Concept information
Preferred term
waste facility siting
Definition(s)
- Those trying to license and build hazardous waste facilities often fear what they call “not in my backyard” or NIMBY responses in communities that are targeted for such developments, although land use planner Frank Popper has argued that such reactions are inescapable when dealing with “locally undesirable land uses,” or LULUs. The mere identification of potential sites for hazardous facilities can ignite battles between residents concerned about associated threats and those who focus on opportunities.
