A PRLF is defined as any land area, whether publicly or privately owned, on which municipal solid waste disposal occurred prior to January 1, 1983, but not thereafter. This link will open the DWM Site Locator Tool where you find all DWM sites in North Carolina. You can use the search tool to zoom in on "Rural Garbage Service" to locate this specific PRLF. Certain hazards can be present at these old landfill sites in the soil, groundwater, and soil gas - and it is important that you are award of the potential risks. This site has not yet been assessed by the PRLF Unit, so the area of waste and associated contamination is not defined at this time. Also, please note that the PRLF Unit does not allow for redevelopment of these old landfills. Redevelopment would need to go through the DWM - Brownsfields Redevelopment Section. If any imminent plans of development or redevelopment on or immediately adjacent to any PRLF, please contact: Ryan Channell, Pre-Regulatory Landfill Unit Supervisor at 919-707-8333 or by e-mail, ryan.channell@deq.nc.gov. If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact me by e-mail analee.thornburg@deq.nc.gov or call 919-707-8227.
