What happens when a closed landfill appears on the Closed Landfill Inventory?
Only the closed landfills that have exact boundaries or good estimations of boundaries will be deed recorded with the appropriate county clerk. If exact boundaries only are known, a letter will be sent to the property owner to notify him that a closed landfill has been identified on his property. The closed landfills with poor estimations of boundaries or unknown boundaries are not deed recorded and the property owner is not notified. The closed landfills remaining on the inventory are for informational purposes only.
