Abstract:

North Carolina statutes give cities and towns limited authority in the process by which permits are issued for the construction and operation of sanitary landfills, an authority that is relatively new and is untested in court. This bulletin analyzes the role given local governments and concludes that they have not been granted the unrestricted power to veto a permit application for construction and operation of sanitary landfills.
