The facility operates under the regulatory oversight of the US EPA and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The landfill is subject to US EPA RCRA Subtitle D standards for municipal solid waste landfills, which govern liner systems, leachate management, and groundwater monitoring. Additionally, it must comply with Clean Air Act regulations for landfill gas collection and control, particularly for larger facilities. The NAICS code 562212 indicates this is a solid waste landfill operation. As a key waste management asset in Volusia County, the landfill provides essential disposal services for residential and commercial waste. Its location near the Atlantic coast requires careful management of leachate and groundwater to protect local water resources. The facility's operational status ensures continued service to the community, with ongoing monitoring and regulatory compliance.

The landfill's location in coastal Florida presents specific environmental considerations, including proximity to groundwater and surface water bodies. Effective leachate management is critical to prevent contamination of the Floridan aquifer system.
