The Lewis County Transfer Station has achieved an impressive milestone by receiving a flawless inspection from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) for the second time this year. This commendable evaluation took place during an unannounced visit by TDEC officials on August 7, 2024.
During their inspection, the officials examined both the transfer station and its Class III landfill. They found no significant violations, and remarkably, there were no minor issues identified either. This successful assessment underscores the facility’s commitment to maintaining high standards of environmental compliance and operational excellence.
