The Solid Waste Program‘s recent U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Landfills Assessment grant allowed department staff to visit more than 50 old closed landfills throughout the state and assess their current condition.  The department is working with county governments and owners of the properties to provide them with information to maintain these facilities at an acceptable and sustainable level.

Landfill information is available at Permitted Facilities.
