I've wondered the same thing and judging by the fence/hill setup they're not wanting people to get in or out.

Ha, I have been wondering for years what this place is, I thought it was a prision, but the fence doesn't go all the way around, I still dont know why you will build such a large and impartial fence, I want to know what it is!!!!

sorry its not something more interesting, but its just a dump/landfill and those high fences are just to keep all the loose trash from blowing all over the freeway.

but feel free to make up a better story
