Ten Year Municipal Solid Waste Management Plan
Beaver County has developed and regularly revises its’ Municipal Solid Waste Management Plan in accordance with PA state laws and regulations. This plan provides landfill capacity assurance for County wide disposal of municipal waste. In addition to landfill capacity assurance, Beaver County has prioritized an integrated waste management approach providing our residents with opportunities to recycle. Beaver County has also established a yard waste composting program to encourage keeping residential yard waste out of landfills.
Beaver County’s plan is developed in cooperation with our municipalities, and is available for review at our office, the County Law Library and in the Planning Commission offices.
