PDH UNITS: 6

Construction and demolition (C&D) landfills play a crucial role in waste management, but they must be designed, operated, and closed in compliance with environmental regulations to prevent hazards. This course provides an in-depth overview of federal and tribal regulations governing C&D landfills in Indian Country, along with best practices for waste reduction, site selection, operations, and closure. Participants will gain practical insights into ensuring compliance with environmental laws while promoting sustainable landfill management.  Course Outline

  1. Introduction to C&D Landfill Management
    • Importance of proper landfill management
    • Federal regulations overview
    • Tribal oversight and environmental responsibilities
  2. Deciding on a C&D Landfill
    • Waste generation assessment
    • Alternatives to landfilling: reduction, reuse, recycling
    • Evaluating costs and environmental impacts
  3. Siting Considerations and Environmental Impact
    • Key factors in landfill site selection
    • Hydrogeological assessments and water protection
    • Climate change resilience in landfill siting
  4. Operations and Best Practices
    • Developing an operations plan
    • Waste acceptance policies and screening methods
    • Safety and security requirements
  5. Regulatory Compliance for C&D Landfills
    • Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) requirements
    • Clean Water Act (CWA) and Clean Air Act (CAA) implications
    • Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations
  6. Tribal Regulations and Oversight
