The facility manages Guernsey's inert waste but it's due to reach capacity in 2022 with the preferred solution to extend to the south.
The Environmental Impact Assessment will look at the possible effects of construction as well as identifying any issues.
Drop-ins are open to anyone who wants to find out more about the assessment and the next steps in the process.
They're taking place at the Performing Arts Centre and on Saturday at Beau Sejour.

First Asian hornet of 2019 found in Jerseypublished at 09:39 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March 2019

BBC News OnlineJersey’s first Asian hornet of 2019 has been found hibernating in hessian sacking, in the marina store of La Collette, St Helier.
It's thought the recent warm spell has possibly encouraged hornets to emerge from hibernation earlier than usual, experts said.
With 17 nests found in 2017, and 55 in 2018, there could be about 150 nests this year, according to the Jersey Asian Hornet Group.
Islanders are being asked to keep an eye out for the insects so experts can track the species and nests can be destroyed.
