Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

Landfills are low-lying open areas specifically designed for the dumping of waste materials to be buried later.

Landfills can be for municipal/household wastes, industrial wastes, or for hazardous wastes. They are usually low lying to facilitate their burial after they must have been filled-up and they represent one of the oldest methods of disposing wastes.

Landfills are not just open areas, they are low-lying as opposed to high-lying, and they are not created near rivers or lakes.

The correct option is, therefore, d.
