A Landfill site for Non-Hazardous Waste can accept municipal waste along with non-hazardous wastes (including inert wastes) of any other origin. There are no numerical WAC limits for landfills for Non-Hazardous Waste. This means there is no limit on the organic content of an individual waste stream accepted at a Landfill for Non-Hazardous Waste. They key requirement is to ensure the waste is not hazardous.

Generally speaking, no testing (compositional testing or WAC testing) of the Non-Hazardous Waste needs to be carried out prior to disposal in a landfill for Non-Hazardous Waste.
