The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has issued permits to PA Waste LLC, Feasterville, Pennsylvania, for the construction of a municipal waste landfill in Boggs Township, Pennsylvania. The DEP issued the permits following a public hearing, a local municipal involvement process and extensive technical and environmental review, according to a DEP news release issued Jan. 28.
PA Waste has proposed a 5,000 tons per day, double-lined, municipal waste landfill. The landfill and supporting facilities will be located within an 845-acre facility boundary.
The municipal waste permit requires that the facility be constructed and begin operation within five years of the date of issuance or the permit will be voided. In addition, DEP will continue to perform technical review on other permits, which must be obtained prior to construction of the facility.
