Purcell Landfill Ownership Transfer

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) has published the procedures for the ownership transfer of the Jasper County Landfill. Because it has been more than 5 years since MDNR isued the original landfill permit, the interested party, Advantage Waste Services (Springfield, MO.), must hire a professional engineering consultant to review the landfill plans. It is also the responsibility of the new owner to hold a public awareness and community input session, for the purpose of soliciting comments from local citizens and respond to those comments.
Anyone with questions regarding the landfill design or the transfer of permit process should contact MDNR's Solid Waste Management Program at 1-800-361-4827 or (573) 751-5401. Questions regarding the storm water permit should be directed to MDNR's Southwest Regional Office at (417) 891-4300. http://www.dnr.mo.gov/newsrel/nr06_010.htm
