Pope/Douglas Solid Waste Management - Solid Waste Permit

We invite you to comment on the draft solid waste permit for Pope/Douglas Solid Waste Management in Douglas County.


Pope/Douglas Solid Waste Management has applied for a solid waste facility permit for a waste sorting facility in Alexandria, which is designed to receive, transfer, store, and process up to 100,000 tons of mixed municipal solid waste per year. 

The draft solid waste facility permit contains requirements for the collection, sorting, processing, and storage of waste and recyclable materials. The incineration of waste at the adjacent waste-to-energy facility is regulated separately under an air emission permit. 


All active landfills, solid waste, and recycling facilities in Minnesota are required to have a solid waste permit. A solid waste permit is good for 10 years. If conditions change and modifications to the permit are necessary, the MPCA may review and amend the permit.
