Loading ...TDEC Solid Waste Report to the Governor Available
The 2007-2008 Annual Report to the Governor and General Assembly on the Solid Waste Management Act is available for review at this link:
http://www.tn.gov/environment/swm/pdf/0708GovRpt.pdf
This document provides a nice overview of the state’s goals and accomplishments in the past fiscal year. The document lists where we are as a state with regard to waste disposal and waste reduction and highlights solid waste assistance projects undertaken by the division.
Interesting to note the report states that a $.90 surcharge is assessed on every ton of municipal solid waste disposed in Tennessee’s Class I Landfills. The assessed surcharge per ton for Class I waste is actually $1.25 per ton.
