Lauderdale County Landfill, LLC has submitted a solid waste permit application to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) for the renewal, with
modification, of its
permitted class I rubbish site, the Lauderdale County Landfill Class I Rubbish Site, located at 1400 Willow Lake Road, Meridian, MS 39301. The permit application proposes a 4.4 acre expansion to the available rubbish disposal area and would allow the facility to continue to accept and dispose of class I rubbish wastes.
The MDEQ, as the staff of the Mississippi Environmental Quality Permit Board (Permit Board), has reviewed the
application and has
preliminarily determined that the applicant has met the necessary requirements for a permit. Therefore, the staff has developed a draft permit based on our review of the information submitted by the applicant. A copy of the draft permit may be found on the MDEQ website at the following link: https://www.mdeq.ms.gov/ensearch/epd-permits-at-public-notice/. The available information also includes a rationale document that contains information on the proposed rubbish project and the development of the draft permit. This information can also be acquired by contacting the MDEQ as described at the end of this notice.
The draft permit for the class I rubbish site, Solid Waste Management Permit SW0380020586, recognizes a 4.4 acre permit expansion for a new total disposal area of 11.53 acres. The class I
rubbish site will continue to accept class I rubbish wastes including construction and demolition debris such as wood, concrete, brick, and cardboard; natural
vegetation such as trees and limbs; crockery; metal; certain plastics; and other similar rubbish wastes. The service area for the facility recognized by the Lauderdale County Solid Waste Management Plan includes all of Lauderdale County in Mississippi.
The MDEQ is soliciting public input on the draft permit on behalf of the Permit Board for the permit renewal with
modification to the class I rubbish site operations. Public input on the draft permit and supporting documentation is an important element in the staff evaluation and resulting recommendation to the Permit Board. The draft permit
conditions have been
developed to ensure
compliance with all State and Federal regulations but are subject to change based on information received through public comments.
Persons wishing to
comment on or object to the draft permit recommendations are invited to submit comments in writing to Mr. Ross Williams at the Permit Board's address shown above or by email to rwilliams@mdeq.ms.gov, no later than March 28, 2025, the end of the thirty (30) day public comment period. All comments received from the public by this date will be reviewed and considered in the final
determinations regarding the draft permit. Please be advised that comments or concerns related to local zoning or land use are generally within the jurisdiction of the local government and not the Permit Board. If sufficient public interest and/or requests are received by the MDEQ for a public hearing on the proposed draft permit, the MDEQ may hold a public hearing on this matter. Persons wishing to
request a public hearing may do so by submitting that request in writing to Mr. Ross Williams or to the Chief of the Waste Division at the address shown above.
Any person that does not have internet access or that is interested in additional information on the draft permit or permit application may contact Mr. Ross Williams at the Permit Board's address and telephone number above. The draft permit and rationale document are also available for review at the MDEQ office during normal business hours at the address below:
