almost 2.3 million gate cubic yards of waste during 2005.
This volume was up 11.1 percent, or almost 230,000 gate
cubic yards more than 2004’s total.
Southern Illinois Regional Landfill, near DeSoto, moved to 10th
place in waste disposal ranking of all state landfills in 2005, and
accounted for nearly 67 percent of the waste landfilled in the region
during the year.
Lawrence County Regional Landfill, Sumner, accepted 66,924 gate
cubic yards or 29 percent of its waste in 2005 from Indiana. Of the
1.5 million gate cubic yards of waste received by Southern Illinois
Regional Landfill in 2005, 357,815 gate cubic yards, or 23 percent,
came from Arkansas, Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri. Tons totaling
24,276 (19 percent of its waste stream) came to Perry Ridge Landfill
from Missouri. West End Disposal Facility, Thompsonville,
accepted 10,669 gate cubic yards or nine percent of its waste from
Kentucky.
The regional percentage of imported waste is 20 percent,
considerably less than Region Six (Metropolitan East St. Louis),
where out-of-state waste comprised 55.5 percent of total waste
landfilled. The state-wide average of imported waste is 13 percent.

Fifty-one (51) years of capacity life remains
As of Jan. 1, 2006, the region’s landfills reported a total capacity of
more than 117.8 million gate cubic yards, allowing 51 years of
landfill life for the region. Three of the region’s landfills: Southern
Illinois Regional Landfill, Perry Ridge Landfill and West End
Disposal Facility contain 81.1 percent of the capacity available in
the region for waste disposal. They rank sixth, tenth, and 11th of all
the State’s 51 landfills reporting remaining capacity.
The largest of these landfills, Southern Illinois Regional Landfill,
has almost 49.9 million cubic yards of capacity available. On July 2,
2004, this landfill’s South Unit lateral expansion was approved. The
landfill contains 143.3 acres and brought 20.6 million more in-place
cubic yards of landfill capacity.
Perry Ridge Landfill opened in DuQuoin on Mar. 8, 2004
Landfill capacity needs in Region Seven are appeased for the time
being by the opening of Perry Ridge Landfill, DuQuoin, on March
8, 2004. Perry Ridge Landfill expects to operate for 23 years. This
landfill has an initial design capacity of 14.9 million airspace cubic
yards. The site consists of Phase 1A (2.9 ac.) and Phase 1A-Southwest
(3.2 ac.).
At Saline County Landfill, on Aug. 19, 2004, a 28.9 acre lateral
expansion was approved for development, increasing future disposal
capacity by 3.1 million cubic yards. The site accepted waste during
January 2005 through Feb. 18, 2005, when it ceased accepting waste
temporarily. On May 19, 2006, the landfill became active again and
continued to be active through June 2006.
New cells opened in 2005 and early 2006 at Southern Illinois
Regional Landfill, Wayne County Regional Landfill and West End
Disposal Facility.

stations and compost facilities, except
in Crawford, Jackson, Perry,
Lawrence, Richland and Wayne
counties, where joint responsibility has
been delegated to local authorities.
Questions or complaints concerning
pollution control facilities, open
dumping or other incidents should be

County agencies inspect facilities; investigate dumping
The Illinois EPA has delegated inspection authority to local
governments in Jackson, Perry and Wayne counties. A multiple
county delegated partner is Ambraw Valley Solid Waste Agency
that inspects Lawrence County Regional Landfill and several closed
sites in Crawford, Lawrence and Richland counties.
Delegation agreements authorize these agencies to conduct many of
the duties that would otherwise have to be performed by the Illinois
EPA’s Marion field office: investigating and enforcing suspected
violations of land pollution laws and reports of open dumping, and
inspecting landfills, transfer stations and compost facilities
permitted through the Agency’s Bureau of Land. (Inspections also
include nonhazardous industrial waste landfills, or monofills, and
landfills that closed prior to 2003; none of which are included in this
report.)
Transfer station activity is underrepresented
In 2005, four active transfer stations played an important role in an
area encompassing 8,421 square miles. All four facilities voluntarily
reported to the Agency that they handled 126,222 tons of municipal
waste during 2005.

1 Has a solid waste ordinance

3 Has residential and commercial recycling ordinances
4 Regional average
Multiple year recycling rate average is 15.1 percent
Each year, the Agency seeks information regarding recycling and
waste generation rates.
Southern Illinois is closer to Indiana and Kentucky recyclable
material markets, than to Illinois markets. Rates ranged from 3.4 to
a high of 35.0 percent, yielding a multi-year average of 15.1
percent.
Six of 22 counties in the region offered current data, yielding a
survey response rate of 27 percent. The rest of the counties had data
from 1994-2004, and one had no data at all.
Municipal Waste
Management Plans
The Solid Waste Planning and
Recycling Act requires all Illinois
counties and the City of Chicago to
develop, adopt and implement 20-year
municipal waste management plans.
Plans include programs and
recommendations to achieve solid
waste management goals, which
typically include waste reduction,
recycling, incineration and landfilling as
program options.
The law requires each plan to include a
program designed to recycle 15
percent of municipal waste by the end
of the third year of the program and 25
percent of municipal waste by the end
of the fifth year, depending upon the
availability of markets.
Every five years, each plan must
identify changes in planning areas,
evaluate progress in plan
implementation and, if necessary,
revise plan recommendations and
goals. The county also has the option
of updating its solid waste generation
data. The plan is then submitted to the
Illinois EPA for review and comment.
Five year plan updates have been
adopted by Edwards, Franklin, Gallatin,
Hardin, Jackson, Jefferson, Lawrence,
Massac, Perry, Pope, Richland, Saline,
Union, Wabash, Wayne, and White
counties.
Ten year plan updates have been
completed by Clay, Edwards, Gallatin,
Lawrence, Richland, Saline, Wabash,
Wayne and White counties.
Questions concerning these plans and
their availability should be directed to
the appropriate local administrators
listed in Appendix K of this report.
