Aerojet Rocketdyne, now part of L3Harris, is constructing the Aerojet Waste Consolidation Unit, a 50-acre Class II Landfill with a 1,000,000 cubic yard capacity, on a former 100-acre dump in Sacramento County, California. The project involves building a new landfill on an old, unregulated dump, using on-site materials, and minimizing the impact on existing waste. The landfill will feature a double liner system with a volatile organic compound collection layer. The project required extensive regulatory approval and documentation, with construction of the first cell beginning in late 2023 and ongoing as of November 2024.
