Landfills, Transfer Stations and Compost Facilities Active in 2009
N INE LANDFILLS IN THE PEORIA/QUAD CITIES AREA REPORTED
almost 255.7 million gate cubic yards of capacity
remaining at the beginning of 2010. Total capacity was
31.1 million gate cubic yards more than the amount that
was reported the previous year. Total capacity in the region
increased 13.9 percent from the previous year.
These landfills in Region Three accounted for 23.2 percent of the
more than one billion gate cubic yards of disposal capacity
remaining statewide on Jan. 1, 2010.
Sixty years of landfill life remaining
The most years of waste disposal remaining was 60 years in the
Peoria/Quad Cities region. The Southern Illinois Region had the
second most landfill life remaining of 47 years and Chicago
Metropolitan Region had the least, 11 years.
Expansion approved in February 2009
At Indian Creek Landfill No. 2, Hopedale, a lateral (86.11 ac.) and
vertical expansion that increased capacity by more than 16.1 million
in-place cubic yards was approved by Illinois EPA on Feb. 26,
2009, and was included in the latest capacity figures available.
Waste disposal amounts decreased by 13 percent
The Region’s eight landfills active in 2009 reported accepting more
than 4.2 million gate cubic yards of waste for disposal. However, in
Region Three, 637,353 fewer gate cubic yards of waste was
received than during 2008, down 13.0 percent.
Twenty percent of waste receipts came from nine other
states
Of the 45 million gate cubic yards of solid waste landfilled in
Illinois in 2009, 12 percent was imported from thirteen other states.
For Region 3, 20 percent of its waste receipts originated from nine
of these 13 states. More than 859,000 cubic yards of out-of-state
waste was disposed at six of the Peoria/Quad Cities area landfills.
Fifty-two (52) percent of the out-of-state waste accepted at Quad
Cities Landfill, Phase IV was from Iowa and Wisconsin. Seventeen
(17) percent of the waste accepted at Upper Rock Island County
Landfill came from Iowa.
All landfills remain open
All active landfills in the region expect to remain open into 2009,
plus one more in Atkinson that opened in August 2009. However,
the PDC #1 Landfill, Peoria is close to closure.

R3.2 Nonhazardous Solid Waste Management and Landfill Capacity in Illinois: 2009
Site certified closed in Tazewell County
Tazewell RDF had ceased accepting waste as of June 21, 2007, after
accepting waste for nearly 30 years. The 30 year post-closure care
period began on Sept. 28, 2007. The site was certified closed on
Dec. 13, 2007.
New landfill opened in Henry County in August 2009
Atkinson Landfill, Atkinson, received a significant modification
permit on Jan. 16, 2004; including a new liner for new areas, waste
excavation, a 45.7 acre vertical and a lateral expansion (78.2 ac.). It
actually opened for business in August 2009.
New waste disposal areas open at six landfills
Several new areas or cells that were permitted to open at four
landfills during 2007, 2008 and 2009, will help provide adequate
landfill space into the future for the region.
New cells opened at Indian Creek Landfill No. 2, Hopedale; Knox
County Landfill #3, Oneida; Peoria City/County Landfill #2; and
Quad Cities Landfill, Phase IV, Milan during this three year period.
For more details, please read the landfill specification pages
following this regional overview.
A new cell opened in 2009 at the Quad Cities Landfill in January.
Proposed expansion under Agency review
Quad Cities Landfill, Phase IV, Milan, still has a permit application
under review for a vertical and horizontal expansion totaling 16
million cubic yards, as of June 2010.

Nonhazardous Solid Waste Management and Landfill Capacity in Illinois: 2009 R3.3
Spoon Ridge Landfill has ranked first in capacity for 12
years
The State’s largest landfill, Spoon Ridge Landfill, Fairview, has
52.1 percent of the landfill capacity in the region, translating to 12
percent of the State’s capacity. The facility has been the state’s
largest landfill since Jan. 1, 1998, but was inactive throughout 2009.
Spoon Ridge Landfill was granted an Agency permit in December,
1997, that allowed the facility’s owner and operator to expand the
disposal area from 80 to 372 acres. The total landfill area increased
from 995 to 1,038 acres, and its peak elevation rose from 813.5 to
915 feet. Its design capacity consists of 84.6 million airspace cubic
yards.
Transfer station opened at Tazewell RDF site in 2008
The landfill operator at Tazewell RDF developed a transfer station
at its closed landfill. Waste Management/Tazewell Transfer Station,
East Peoria, was under development throughout 2007. After
receiving its operating permit on Dec. 17, 2007, it opened just after
the new year began in January 2008.
East Peoria’s transfer station leads region
All five transfer facilities in the region reported accepting 119,391
tons of waste for transfer.
East Peoria’s privately owned and operated transfer station
mentioned above handled 75,705 tons of municipal waste, which
was 63.4 percent of that reported for the region.

R3.4 Nonhazardous Solid Waste Management and Landfill Capacity in Illinois: 2009
Almost forty-six (46) percent of landscape waste receipts
were handled at Peoria City/County Landfill #1’s compost
site
The Peoria/Quad Cities region’s five compost facilities processed
24,990 gate tons of landscape wastes during 2009, down less than
one percent from the previous year. More than 45.8 percent of the
landscape waste in the region handled in 2009 was managed at the
compost facility located at Peoria City/County Landfill #1, ranked
first in the region in terms of leaves, grass and brush managed.
County recycling rates average 30.1 percent
The Agency surveys recycling coordinators statewide each year. Six
of the 14 counties in Region 3 (42.8 percent) voluntarily reported
new recycling data. The regional recycling rate of 30.1 percent is
considered to be the average rate for 2009, since data for the other
eight counties comes from either 2003, 2006, 2007 or 2008.
