Local government landfills
DEQ has "orphan" funding to investigate and clean up hazardous substances at solid waste disposal sites owned or operated by local government, or at private disposal sites containing domestic solid waste where DEQ determines that responsible parties are either unknown, or unwilling or unable to take remedial action.
