Board of County Commissioners Regular Meeting · 2026-07-14 · agenda_item

This item concerns a resolution by the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, expressing strong opposition to a proposed deep well injection permit for the Heart of Florida Landfill in Sumter County. The landfill is currently evaluating the feasibility of converting an exploratory Class V well into a Class I deep injection well for leachate disposal. This project, if pursued, would involve the construction and operation of deep injection wells. The resolution is currently under review by the Board of County Commissioners. This situation presents an opportunity for contractors and suppliers involved in environmental services, waste management, and potentially well construction and monitoring. Early engagement with the project stakeholders could be beneficial as plans develop.
