This public hearing is being held at the Lauderdale County Courthouse Boardroom located at 612 22nd Avenue South, Meridian, MS 39301.

Additionally, the facility may sort and segregate recyclable materials from the incoming waste stream or receive pre-sorted recyclables, for temporary storage prior to transporting the recyclables to a legitimate end-use facility or disposal facility. Municipal solid wastes and garbage will be off-loaded and managed within a fully enclosed 5,000 square foot building. The total property area to be owned by JWC Environmental, LLC is approximately 7 acres within the Key Industrial Park. The approved service area for the facility, as approved by the Lauderdale County Board of Supervisors, includes the counties of Clarke, Jasper, Kemper, Lauderdale, Neshoba, and Newton in Mississippi along with the contiguous Alabama counties of Choctaw and Sumter.
