Former Proposed Landfill Site Protected Forever

The Spartanburg Area Conservancy and landowner Dr. Everett P. Fuller of Greenville have permanently protected 451 acres of forest and agricultural land on the Enoree River, SPACE's largest easement to date. Six years ago, this land was optioned to be part of the Waste Management Enoree landfill. As noted in the Herald Journal on August 24, 2005, the site was located south of Enoree on Ridge Road and bordered the Enoree River. The protected property stretches from Ridge Road to the Enoree River.



Today, the property is protected with a conservation easement held by SPACE, and will remaind as it is now, an agricultural property with beautiful hardwoods, diverse plant and animal species, and riparian areas. The property also contains an unmarked cemetary and an historic stagecoach road.

The landowner, Dr. Fuller, was interested in protecting his land after the landfill project died. The land has been in his family since the 1930's.
