Regional 5 - County Solid Waste Plan Update (2023)

In order to develop an updated Regional Solid Waste Plan, the County Commissioners of the Five-County Region—that includes Columbia, Lycoming, Montour, Union, and Snyder Counties—went through a thorough, multi-year process. Pennsylvania law requires that the Plan provide for the region's common waste capacity demands for ten years.

Throughout the Plan's creation, Lycoming County served as the lead agency. Stakeholders, Recycling Coordinators, Municipalities, Waste related businesses and the general public were heavily involved in the process. The first Regional Solid Waste Plan was approved by DEP on February 26, 2013, and it conforms with Act 101, the Pennsylvania Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling, and Waste Reduction Act of 1988, as well as any necessary modifications to the Act.
