Abstract: | Each day some 400–450 ton solid waste is dumped on land and in the sea and rivers in the coastal cities of the eastern Black
Sea, creating serious environmental problems. The paper reports the engineering geological studies of a proposed landfill
site for Trabzon, a major city in the region. Fieldwork included scan-line and seismic surveys as well as boreholes and in-situ
testing. Water absorption tests indicated permeabilities in the order of 10−8 m/s.
