Total Landfills
Landfills including RCRA Subtitle C landfills and other landfills. RCRA
Subtitle C landfills are those authorized under the Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (RCRA) to accept hazardous waste for disposal. RCRA is
the comprehensive federal law that, among other things, regulates the
management of certain highly dangerous wastes from the moment they are
generated until their ultimate destruction or disposal. Landfills
authorized to accept these wastes must follow very stringent guidelines
for their design and operation. Other landfills are commonly referred to
as non-hazardous waste landfills and may be regulated under a variety of
other Federal, state, and local programs. Data from Section 5.5.1 on the
