Abstract |
This is the Illinois EPA's 18th Annual Report describing the management of non-hazardous municipal solid waste by the state's solid waste landfills, transfer stations and compost facilities. The report is divided into sections representing Illinois EPA administrative regions. Each regional section includes specification pages describing the chief physical characteristics of each landfill. Provided in this report are each facility's location and hours of operation, tipping fee, quantities of wastes received for the last three years (2002, 2003 and 2004), in both gate cubic yards and gate tones; the landfill's certified remaining capacity for the last two reporting dates Jan. 1, 2004, and Jan 1, 2005, in gate cubic yards; solid waste management fees paid to the State in 2004; the Agency Regional Office or delegated local authority that inspects the facility; and the name, address and phone number of the landfill's owner and operator. Similar, but scaled down, specification pages are included for each transfer station and compost facility. In all, this report includes details of 57 landfills, 103 transfer stations and 47 compost facilities. Any landfill, transfer station or compost site that was permitted to accept waste in 2002, 2003 and/or 2004 is included in the report. The list of active waste management facilities during 2004 includes 52 landfills, 98 transfer stations and 40 compost sites. |
