Hazardous Waste Exclusion Program
The landfill offers a Hazardous Waste Exclusion program, which helps identify and screen commercial and industrial wastes that may be regulated as hazardous or may contain regulated levels of PCBs.

The program also serves a mechanism to ensure that any employee exposure and risks of environmental impact are minimized and rigidly controlled.If any regulated wastes are identified prior to acceptance, the material will be rejected. Depending on the nature of the rejected waste, the landfill may be required to immediately notify the Montana Department of Environmental Quality that unacceptable wastes have been discovered.

 Prohibited Wastes

The landfill does not accept wastes that are defined as hazardous by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality or under federal law (40 CFR Part 261).Among the prohibited wastes are bulk liquid wastes, regulated hazardous wastes, regulated radioactive wastes, and regulated PCB wastes.Before shipments can be accepted at the landfill, wastes must be profiled using the Generator’s Waste Profile Sheet.

Our secure landfill site is one of the most environmentally sound operations of its kind in the Northwest.
This gives you peace of mind and minimizes future concerns and liabilities. Special waste means that the waste must be handled very carefully when being removed, packaged for disposal and actually disposed of according to all applicable state and federal rules and regulations. Some examples are listed below. Each has its own procedure that must be used to take care of it properly:

• Asbestos
• Petroleum contaminated soil
• PCB contaminated waste
• Any waste NOT deemed hazardous
