Solid Waste Facilities Reporting Program

The Mississippi Nonhazardous Solid Waste Management Regulations require the owner of a solid waste management facility to submit an annual report to the MDEQ each year on or before February 28th. The annual report should include information on the solid waste disposal activities conducted during the preceding calendar year. Solid waste management facilities (that must comply with the annual reporting requirements) include commercial and noncommercial landfills, commercial and noncommercial rubbish sites, composting facilities, and land application sites.

The basis for these reporting requirements is found in the Mississippi Code Annotated Section 17-17-219 (supp. 2007), which also requires the owner of a commercial solid waste disposal facility to file a statement with the Mississippi Department of Revenue, before July 15 each year, showing the total amount of waste managed at the facility during the preceding calendar year. At the same time the owner is required to pay to the Department of Revenue one dollar ($1.00) per ton of waste managed at the facility.

Transition to New E-Reporting System

MDEQ has transitioned from the use of paper and PDF forms for solid waste annual reports to an online data entry system to improve consistency in facility reporting data, provide an easier method for timely submittal of reports, and streamline the annual reporting process for both the agency and regulated community. Therefore, MDEQ will now require all owners of solid waste management facilities and Beneficial Use Determination registrants to electronically submit their annual report using the Mississippi DEQ Solid Waste Facility Reporting Program via the Re-TRAC Connect (Re-TRAC) software platform beginning with Calendar Year 2019 activities.

CY2021 reporting forms will be available through the online system beginning January 1, 2022. These reports are due February 28, 2022, or as otherwise detailed in facility permit conditions.

Owners of solid waste management facilities that have already registered with the MDEQ Re-TRAC program can use the link below to log into the program and to access and fill out the assigned report.
