R EGION SEVEN’S FIVE ACTIVE LANDFILLS ACCEPTED
almost 2.1 million gate cubic yards of waste during 2007.
This volume was down 14.8 percent, or 363,893 gate cubic
yards less than 2006’s total. Overall, for all seven regions, the
decline was just 2.1 percent. One landfill was temporarily closed
during 2006 and 2007, so one less landfill was active in 2007.
Southern Illinois Regional Landfill Inc., DeSoto accounted for
nearly 51.4 percent of the waste landfilled in the region during
2007.
This region had the second highest decline of three regions reporting
less waste accepted. Only Peoria/Quad Cities at 18.4 percent was
higher. West Central Illinois, Region 5 also reported less waste
accepted in 2007, at 8.9 percent.
Veolia Environmental Services (ES) purchased two
landfills in Southern Illinois in 2007
Two landfills in Southern Illinois have new owners and names.
Lawrence County Regional Landfill, Sumner was purchased by
Veolia ES Solid Waste Inc. on June 1, 2007. That same company
also purchased Wayne County Landfill, Fairfield on Sept. 1, 2007.
The new names are Veolia ES Sumner Landfill Inc. and Veolia ES
Wayne County Landfill Inc.
This company also owns Veolia ES Orchard Hills Landfill Inc.,
Davis Junction in Region 1; Veolia ES Zion Landfill Inc., Zion, in
Region 2 and Veolia ES Valley View Landfill Inc., Decatur, in
Region 4. The largest landfill in the State in terms of waste
acceptance in 2007, Veolia ES Orchard Hills Landfill Inc. is owned
by them.
Four landfills accept waste from seven other states
The percentage of imported waste for the region is 28.6 percent,
considerably less than Region Six (Metropolitan East St. Louis),
where out-of-state waste comprised 52.6 percent of total waste
landfilled. The state-wide average of imported waste for 2007 is 13
percent.
Of the almost 1.1 million gate cubic yards of waste received by
Southern Illinois Regional Landfill Inc. in 2007, 400,865 gate cubic
yards, or 37 percent, came from the states of Arkansas, Iowa,
Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee. An amount of
144,740 gate cubic yards (31 percent of its waste stream) came to
Perry Ridge Landfill, DuQuoin, from Michigan and Missouri.
The landfill in Sumner accepted 46,435 gate cubic yards or 26
percent of its waste from Indiana. West End Disposal Facility,
Thompsonville, accepted 6,527 gate cubic yards, or four percent of
its waste, from Kentucky. Only Veolia ES Wayne County Landfill
Inc., Fairfield, did not accept any out-of-state waste.

New cells open at active landfills
New cells opened in 2005 and early 2006 at Southern Illinois
Regional Landfill Inc., Veolia ES Wayne County Landfill Inc. and
West End Disposal Facility.
Saline County Landfill receives permit to expand, then
temporarily closes
On Aug. 19, 2004 a 28.9 acre lateral expansion was approved for
development at Saline County Landfill, Harrisburg, increasing its
disposal capacity by 3.1 million cubic yards. Part of Unit II has been
initially developed, but is not ready for waste acceptance. The
operator reports the site will remain inactive until business
conditions make the site economically viable.
The landfill ceased accepting waste on June 7, 2006. The operator
then declared to Illinois EPA that it was temporarily closed with
capacity remaining. The operator will continue to report capacity
each January 1st, until it re-opens or closes permanently. The site
continues to be inspected.
R7.2 Nonhazardous Solid Waste Management and Landfill Capacity in Illinois: 2007
Saline County Landfill
temporarily closes
Saline County Landfill, Harrisburg,
ceased accepting waste on June 7,
2006. The operator then declared
to Illinois EPA that it was
“temporarily closed” with capacity
remaining. The landfill operator will
continue to report capacity to
Illinois EPA each January 1st, until
it re-opens or closes permanently.
Fifty-four years of
landfill life remain in
Region
The Southern Illinois region has the
most years of landfill life remaining,
at 54 years. The Peoria/Quad
Cities region has the next highest
at 41 years. The 988 million gate
cubic yards of available capacity
allows for 18 years of landfill life
state-wide. Chicago Metropolitan
has the least years remaining at
seven years.

4 Regional average
Multiple year recycling rate average is 15.2 percent
Each year, the Agency seeks information regarding recycling and
waste generation rates.
Southern Illinois is located closer to markets in Indiana and
Kentucky than to Illinois markets. Recycling rates ranged from 3.4
to a high of 35.0 percent, yielding a multi-year average of 15.2
percent.
Two of 22 counties in the region offered current data, yielding a
survey response rate of nine percent. The rest of the counties (except
one) had data from 1994-2006.
Hamilton County is the only county in the state that did not adopt a
solid waste plan in the 1990’s, therefore there is no baseline data
available.
