    Unless your municipality is not following proper dump design, none of that oil you send in the trash is ever going into the groundwater. Dumps are designed to never let anything decay or escape into the ground, with layers of plastic barriers laid every x feet, along with reduction of microbes, and more. They’re designed to completely prevent exactly what you’re talking about.

      I’m very confident that this very environmentally conscious municipality took all necessary precautions to safely deposit their trash.
