Description
Excerpt: Site Description The Landfill and Development Company site is a 200 acre landfill located in the Townships of Mount Holly and Eastampton, Burlington County, New Jersey. The site is located on the north side of Route38, approximately one mile east of Route 206. Beginning in the early 1940's, the site was operated as a sand and gravel pit. The first waste disposal activities were initiated at the site in 1962, with the disposal of demolition debris. In 1968, disposal of municipal refuse, industrial and commercial solid waste and treated sewage sludge began. Landfilling activities continued until 1986. In the late 1990's the landfill closure was completed, including a clay liner, a leachate collection system and a methane gas collection system.
