About Waste Management
The North Carolina Division of Waste Management regulates solid waste disposal, hazardous waste management, underground storage tanks and Superfund cleanups. We provide technical assistance to businesses, industries, local governments and citizens to help them reduce and better manage wastes. Our assistance helps protect and improve citizens' public health and the environment. To further our mission, the Waste Management division houses four sections which manage specific types of waste.
