The Changing Valuation of US Landfill Sites

Abstract

Provides an overview of the current regulatory environment pertaining to the valuations of US landfill sites. Addresses changes in US regulations and how they relate to closure and post‐closure costs as well as the owners′ financial responsibility after closure. Concludes that the methodology of valuing landfills by using comparison of similar sales becomes less useful with the introduction of the new regulations.
