This resolution calls on the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services to reject any proposals for a landfill adjacent to Forest Lake State Park in Dalton, New Hampshire. Established in 1935, the park encompasses 397 acres and features a sandy beach along Forest Lake, making it a popular destination for various recreational activities such as swimming, picnicking, and boating.

The resolution emphasizes the significant risks associated with permitting a landfill near the park, including potential threats to public health, safety, and the environment, as well as negative impacts on tourism and outdoor recreation in the North Country region. The House of Representatives firmly believes that the disadvantages of situating a landfill near Forest Lake State Park far outweigh any potential benefits, and thus advocates against such development.
