ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

Environmental ManagmentThe Department of Environmental Management oversees the operations of the Landfill and the Recycling programs.

In 1989, Environmental Management was underway closing the old landfill and constructing the new Subtitle-D Landfill on Campbell Road in Woodleaf.  This landfill was one of the first built in the state that met the new State requirements that allowed for the protection of the soil and groundwater around the area. At this time Rowan County, also, established the recycling program with the addition of staffed convenience centers. Rowan County was one of the first to implement recycling for its citizens in the state.

Notice to the Farm Community:

When Purchasing Seed Products: Please be sure to speak with your seed vendor about allowing the vendor to take back emptied seed bags for proper recycling.  Many local vendors will agree to reclaim bags from the seed products that they sell.  Seed bags can in many cases be reused or recycled.  It is our collective responsibility to use our purchasing power to help facilitate reuse and recycling mechanisms. Seed bags are an area where we can make a difference in our waste stream by keeping this usable material out of our landfill.
Thank you for your efforts!
