Virginia ranks number two in states who get the most trash brought in (PA is number one):
The amount of out-of-state waste coming into Virginia is on the rise again, according to a report released Wednesday. Almost 7.3 million tons came to the commonwealth in 2006, with most of it from Maryland, New York and Washington, D.C. ...
Twenty-two states brought trash to Virginia last year, from Alabama to Wisconsin, Connecticut to West Virginia...
Virginia has tried in vain for years to curb trash imports. But the courts have consistently declared such proposed state laws as unconstitutional and in violation of interstate commerce protections.
