Marshall County SLF currently covers approximately 44 acres with a depth of approximately 60 feet. The facility opened in 1975 and has been in continuous operation since then. The design specifications call for a total area of 72 acres. The size of a landfill reflects both its operational history and the volume of waste it has processed over its lifetime of service to the surrounding community.

Marshall County SLF does not currently have an active landfill gas collection system. Landfill gas is produced naturally as organic waste decomposes underground. Facilities without active collection systems may use passive venting — this facility uses passive venting or flaring. Future LFG collection projects may be considered as the volume of waste in place increases.

Marshall County SLF participates in the following environmental programs: leachate recirculation is practiced to accelerate waste decomposition; an LFG energy project with status 'Candidate' is associated with this site. These initiatives help reduce the environmental footprint of landfill operations by capturing resources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and diverting material from direct disposal. Contact the facility or its operator for more details on current environmental compliance status.
