Abilene Environmental Landfill (AEL)

Abilene Environmental Landfill (AEL) is located off the I-20 near Abilene, Texas. Our landfill is one of only two Texas landfills not located over any groundwater table.

The facility includes a three-foot clay liner that exceeds 10 – 7 permeability and a 60 mil HDPE geosynthetic liner overlaid with a leachate collection system. Our site is constructed of individual cells monitored by fifteen monitoring wells throughout the site. These monitoring wells are tested semi-annually. We follow all Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rules and regulations in constructing and operating our landfill.

Abilene Environmental Landfill is a licensed full Sub Title D, 264-acre industrial waste disposal facility (TCEQ Permit 2325).

AEL provides disposal services for municipal solid waste, construction and demolition waste, non-hazardous Industrial Class 1, 2, and 3 waste, and E&P-exempt railroad commission waste. Our facility also disposes of scrap metal, soil contaminated with hydraulic oil, gasoline, or diesel, scrap cable, pallets, totes, tires, and contaminated PPE.

AEL is able to offer liquid solidification and disposal services to handle all liquid waste needs.

Our hours of operation are posted; however, AEL is permitted to operate 24 hours a day when needed.
