Human activities are inevitably associated with the generation of waste. The proximity of many of landfills to metropolitan water supplies, the frequency of landfill leachate contamination of groundwater sources, and the knowledge that leachate from landfills may be an important source of ground water pollution and urgent environmental problem - all these factors have created a need for further understanding of the fate and persistence of the constant organic pollutants in the landfill leachate This article analyzes Jerubaiciai landfill leachate resulting from the dynamics of the exchange of meteorological conditions and therefore increasing the amount of waste. This study was carried out from at 2008. The study found that during the year the amount of leachate from a landfill was ~ 6500 m3 per day, 1050 tons of waste per weak. When the average air temperature is from - 10 to 0 °C, the leachate average is about 90 m3 to 260 m3. In summer, the total amount of precipitation was 52%, and the amount of leachate setting-up to only 23% of the total filtrate.
