The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has approved the major expansion of the Countywide Recycling and Disposal Facility landfill in southern Stark County. The landfill, operated by Republic Waste Services, will be permitted to expand horizontally and vertically from 88 to 170 acres, which would give the landfill 27.3 years' worth of space. The landfill is authorized to accept 7,000 tons of garbage a day, and that total remains unchanged.
