Transportation Research Record, 1994•trid.trb.orgA solution framework for the sludge landfill site selection problem that arises in the context of
environmental planning is presented. The problem may be defined as follows: given a set of
environmentally acceptable candidate landfill sites, identify the site that minimizes a
weighted combination of two objectives (system descriptors), the present worth value of the
transportation operation costs and the resulting population disturbance of the chosen set of
transportation routes. The solution methodology is demonstrated on data developed for the …
