The total permitted design capacity of the facility is 315,000 tons, meaning the site is currently at approximately 100% of its total design capacity. The facility accepts approximately 69,931 tons of waste per year based on the most recent annual data. At the current rate of fill, the facility is projected to reach capacity and close around 1997.

Rumpke-Milan LF currently covers approximately 18 acres with a depth of approximately 23 feet. The facility opened in 1969 and has been in continuous operation since then. The design specifications call for a total area of 18 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.

Rumpke-Milan LF 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 to manage gas migration. Future LFG collection projects may be considered as the volume of waste in place increases.
