Old Landfills / Abandoned Dumps
The Waste Management Division maintains files on
approximately 130 old landfill sites. These site were operated by
Hillsborough County, its municipalities, or private entities. Excavation
of and/or
construction on solid waste-filled areas requires a Director’s
Authorization from the agency. A
Director’s Authorization might entail
engineering controls, landfill gas monitoring and mitigation, proper
disposal of excavated solid waste, and the prevention of the impoundment
of stormwater on solid waste. You may also visit the City of Tampa's
