CUDDEBACK LAKE GUNNERY RANGE DISPOSAL SI is an operational landfill located in George A F B, California, within San Bernardino County. The facility is classified under NAICS code 562212 for solid waste landfill operations and serves the local region's waste management needs. As a landfill in the United States, this facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US EPA, including RCRA Subtitle D for municipal solid waste landfills and Clean Air Act regulations for landfill gas emissions. California imposes additional state-level requirements for landfill gas collection and leachate management, reflecting the state's stringent environmental standards. The landfill's location in the Mojave Desert region presents specific environmental considerations, including arid conditions that influence leachate generation and groundwater protection measures. The facility's operational status indicates ongoing waste disposal activities, contributing to regional solid waste management infrastructure.

The landfill is situated in the Mojave Desert, an arid region with low rainfall, which reduces leachate generation but increases the importance of groundwater protection due to the scarcity of water resources. Landfill gas management is critical to mitigate methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas. Proximity to the Marine Corps Logistics Base and remote desert areas influences community and traffic considerations.
