Point Center Inc C&D Landfill - Crestview, Florida Construction and Demolition Debris Landfill

Point Center Inc C&D Landfill is a construction and demolition debris landfill located 7.5 miles west of Crestview, Florida, in Okaloosa County. The facility is operational and handles non-hazardous solid waste from construction and demolition activities, serving the local community and surrounding areas. The landfill operates under the regulatory framework of the US EPA RCRA Subtitle D, which governs municipal solid waste landfills, including C&D landfills. Florida's solid waste management rules align with federal standards, requiring liners, leachate collection, and groundwater monitoring. The facility's NAICS code 562212 indicates it is classified as a solid waste landfill. As a C&D landfill, this facility plays a key role in managing construction and demolition debris, which is a significant waste stream in growing regions like the Florida Panhandle. Proper management helps reduce environmental impacts such as groundwater contamination and methane emissions, though C&D landfills typically generate less methane than municipal solid waste landfills due to lower organic content.

The landfill is located in the Florida Panhandle, a region with a high water table and sandy soils, which increases the risk of groundwater contamination from leachate. Proper liner and leachate management systems are critical to protect local water resources. The facility's proximity to Crestview and residential areas also raises considerations for traffic, dust, and odor management. While C&D landfills have lower methane generation than MSW landfills, fugitive dust from construction debris can be a concern.
