“Landfill reclamation” means the excavation of a portion or all of a landfill for the purpose of reducing landfill volume, reducing closure and post-closure costs by complete or partial removal of the landfill, creating capacity, or reducing adverse environmental impacts through the mining and separation of waste and soils into recyclable, reusable, or combustible components. The term does not include recontouring, regrading, or relocating existing waste at a landfill to reduce the landfill footprint or to achieve final grades.
