Interstate Shipment of Municipal Solid Waste:
2002 Update
Summary
This report, which replaces CRS Report RL31051, provides updated
information on interstate shipment of municipal solid waste (MSW). Since the late
1980s, Congress has considered, but not enacted, numerous bills that would allow
states to impose restrictions on interstate waste shipments, a step the Constitution
prohibits in the absence of congressional authorization. Over this period, there has
been a continuing interest in knowing how much waste is being shipped across state
lines for disposal, and what states might be affected by proposed legislation. This
report provides data useful in addressing these questions.
Total interstate waste shipments continue to rise due to the closure of older local
landfills and the increasing consolidation of the waste management industry. About
35 million tons of municipal solid waste crossed state lines for disposal in 2001, an
increase of 9.4% over 2000. Waste imports have grown each year since CRS began
tracking them in the early 1990s, and now represent 21.6% of all municipal solid
waste disposed at landfills and waste combustion facilities. In the last eight years,
reported imports have increased 141%.
Pennsylvania remains, by far, the largest waste importer. The state received

10.7 million tons of municipal solid waste and 1.9 million tons of other non-

hazardous waste from out of state in 2001, more than 30% of the national total for
interstate shipments. Virginia, the second largest importer, received 4.1 million tons,
62% less than the amount received by Pennsylvania. Michigan, the third largest
importer, imported 3.6 million tons of MSW in fiscal year 2001; waste imports to
Michigan have doubled since 1999. Twenty-three states had increased imports in the
current report – the largest increases occurring in Pennsylvania and Michigan. In all,
eight states reported imports that exceeded one million tons.
While waste imports increased overall, several states (including New
Hampshire, South Carolina, Connecticut, Arizona, and Washington) reported sharp
declines in waste imports.
New York remains the largest exporter of waste, with New Jersey and Illinois
in second and third place, respectively. Four states (New York, New Jersey, Illinois,
and Maryland) account for more than half the national total of waste exports.

Interstate Shipment of
Municipal Solid Waste: 2002 Update
Introduction
This report provides updated information on interstate shipment of municipal
solid waste. Concerned about increased waste imports, some states have attempted
to regulate this commerce; federal courts, however, have declared these state
restrictions unconstitutional. If states are to have such authority, congressional action
is required.
Since the late 1980s, Congress has considered, but not enacted, numerous bills
that would grant such authority.¹ Over this period, there has been a continuing
interest in knowing how much waste is being shipped across state lines for disposal,
and what states might be affected by proposed legislation. This report provides data
useful in addressing these questions. It updates information provided in earlier CRS
reports.²
The report presents information gathered through telephone contacts with solid
waste officials in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the Canadian province
of Ontario. The data obtained from these contacts are summarized in Tables 1, 2, and
3, and Figures 1 and 2. Table 4 presents additional information, including the names
and telephone numbers of state contacts.
Not all states require reporting of waste imports, and very few track exports, so
the available data are incomplete and in some cases represent estimates rather than
actual measurements. In a number of cases, faced with conflicting reports from
exporters and importers or no quantitative data at all, we provided our best estimate
based on discussions with state officials or other sources.

¹ Legislation on interstate shipment of waste has been introduced in every Congress since
the 100^th. In the 104^th Congress, the Senate passed S. 534. The bill would have granted
states authority to restrict new shipments of municipal solid waste from out of state, if^rd
requested by an affected local government. In the 103 Congress, both the House and
Senate passed interstate waste legislation (H.R. 4779 and S. 2345), but lack of agreement
on common language prevented enactment. For a discussion of the issues addressed in these
bills, see CRS Report RS20106, Interstate Waste Transport: Legislative Issues.

Report RL31051. Earlier reports, now out of print but available directly from the author,

Fifteen of the states provided data for a period other than calendar year 2001 –
either their latest fiscal year or a different calendar year. This adds another layer of
imprecision: we combined data for whatever was the latest reporting period, even
though in these 15 cases, this meant combining data from different time periods.
Each of the exceptions from the 2001 reporting period is noted in the appropriate
tables, but the reader should perhaps keep in mind that many of the totals reported
here are our best estimate rather than precise figures.
Total Shipments
The data show that total interstate waste shipments continue to rise: imports in
the current survey totaled 35.0 million tons, 15.1% of the 231.9 million tons of
municipal solid waste generated in the United States.³ Of municipal waste disposed
(as opposed to recycled or composted), the percentage is even higher. EPA estimates
that 69.9 million tons of municipal solid waste were recycled or composted in 2000,
leaving 162 million tons to be disposed in landfills or incinerators. Of this amount,

21.6% crossed state lines for disposal.⁴

Between CRS’s year 2001 report (reporting largely 1999 and 2000 data) and the
current survey (reporting generally 2001 data), imports increased 3.0 million tons, or
9.4%. Since 1993, reported imports have risen 141%, from 14.5 million tons in 1993
to 35.0 million tons in the current survey.
States Reporting Increased Imports
Twenty-three states had increased imports of municipal waste in 2001, with the
largest increases occurring in Pennsylvania and Michigan. The increases in these two
states, 0.9 million tons and 0.75 million tons respectively, total 55% of the entire
increase nationally.
The preponderance of these two states in the 2001 waste statistics demonstrates
another element of the emerging picture of interstate waste shipment: 52% of total
municipal waste imports are disposed in just three states: Pennsylvania, Virginia, and
Michigan.
Pennsylvania continues to be the largest waste importer, by far. Disposal
facilities in the state received 10.7 million tons of MSW and 1.9 million tons of other

³ Because many of the larger importers now differentiate MSW from other non-hazardous
waste imports, we compared total MSW imports to EPA’s national estimate of MSW
generation (231.9 million tons in the latest available year, 2000). State-reported waste
generation, summarized in BioCycle magazine’s annual survey, is substantially higher (409
million tons in 2000) but is likely to include other nonhazardous waste, provided it was
disposed at MSW facilities. For state-reported data, see Nora Goldstein and Celeste Madtes,
“The State of Garbage in America,” BioCycle, December 2001, p. 42.
⁴ Much of the waste destined for recycling may also have crossed state lines, but waste
destined for recycling does not carry the same stigma as that sent for disposal, and recycling
facilities do not generally require permits by state agencies. Thus, amounts shipped across
state lines for recycling cannot generally be tracked by the solid waste agencies.

nonhazardous waste from out of state in 2001. The amounts represented half of all
solid waste disposed in the state and more than 30% of the national total for interstate
shipments.
After Pennsylvania, Virginia is the largest waste importer, with 4.1 million tons
of MSW imports and 720,782 tons of other nonhazardous waste. Despite predictions
that Virginia would receive increased imports as New York’s Fresh Kills landfill
phased out operations, waste imports to Virginia have remained roughly the same in
the 1998-2001 period. (Instead, New York’s increased exports appear to have gone
primarily to Pennsylvania and New Jersey.)
Michigan, the third largest waste importer in 2001, saw out-of-state waste
disposed in the state grow by more than 750,000 tons that year. Substantial amounts
of waste come to Michigan from Illinois, Indiana, and other neighboring states; but
the biggest source, accounting for about half of Michigan’s out-of-state waste, is
Ontario, Canada. Ontario’s waste shipments are growing as the Toronto area awards
new contracts for waste disposal and closes its two remaining landfills. At the
beginning of 1999, the Toronto area was generating about 2.8 million tons of waste
annually, of which about 700,000 tons were shipped to Michigan. By early 2003,
however, there will be virtually no local disposal capacity. Barring unforeseen
developments, most of this waste is expected to be sent to Michigan for disposal.
In other highlights:
^!Eight states reported imports exceeding one million tons per year in
the latest year, a figure unchanged from our two previous surveys,
which reported 1998 and 2000 data.
^!Another 21 states had imports exceeding 100,000 tons.
^!For the fourth year in a row, New Jersey is on the list of major
importers, with 892,394 tons of MSW imports in 2000 (2001 data
were not yet available). The state is still a major exporter of waste,
as well: receiving states estimate New Jersey’s exports at more than
5.4 million tons in 2001. But the absence of flow control (local
government requirements that waste within their jurisdiction be
disposed at local facilities, which were overturned by the courts in
the mid-1990s) has led waste-to-energy facilities in New Jersey to
search for waste to replace local waste now being disposed
elsewhere. As a result, large amounts of waste are entering New
Jersey from New York.
^!New York, the nation’s largest waste exporter, also saw rapid
growth in waste imports in 2000 and 2001. The state imported
839,700 tons of waste in 2001, an increase from 539,000 tons in our
previous survey.
^!Other states reporting major increases in imports were Ohio,
Georgia, and New Mexico. Ohio has had a nearly 900,000 ton
increase in MSW imports between 1998 and 2001; Georgia

experienced a nearly 750,000 ton increase over the same three years;
and New Mexico had a 500,000 ton increase in the last two years.
^!Oklahoma made its first appearance on our list of importers: the
state reported that in September 2001, it began receiving 1,500 tons
per day of waste from Wichita, Kansas. Based on this information,
we estimate imports at 125,000 tons for the year 2001. This amount
will increase to around 400,000 tons in 2002.
^!Although there are no comprehensive data, imports to transfer
stations⁵ are a political issue in some locations. Transfer stations are
generally located in urban areas and are subject to less stringent
regulation than disposal facilities. Heavy truck traffic and odors
have aroused concerns in some neighboring communities.
Connecticut, Rhode Island, and the District of Columbia report
significant amounts of out-of-state waste imported to transfer
stations, then exported to other states for disposal. New York City’s
plan to export waste to transfer stations in New Jersey raised
substantial controversy, before being rescinded.
States Reporting Decreased Imports
While waste imports increased overall, 14 states reported declines in waste
imports. In many cases, the declines were small, but five of the states (New
Hampshire, South Carolina, Connecticut, Arizona, and Washington) had declines
exceeding 100,000 tons. Most notable were: South Carolina, where imports declined
by about one-third in the last two years (simultaneous with a major increase in
Georgia’s imports); Connecticut, where imports declined by two-thirds; and New
Hampshire, where new permit conditions imposed on the state’s largest landfill have
contributed to a state-wide reduction in imports of more than 560,000 tons since

1997.

Major Exporters
Six states (New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Maryland, Missouri, and
Massachusetts) each exported more than one million tons of waste to facilities in
other states in the latest reporting period, and ten other states and the District of
Columbia exported more than half a million tons. The Canadian province of Ontario
also exported a substantial amount of municipal waste (about 2,000,000 tons), most
of it to Michigan.
New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and Maryland remained the largest exporters.
Together these four states accounted for 52% of waste exports nationally.
New York’s exports rose to 7,493,130 tons in 2001, according to seven
receiving states, an increase of nearly 700,000 tons over the previous year. The

⁵ Transfer stations receive waste from collection trucks, compact it, bale it, and load it on
larger trucks for disposal elsewhere.

increase reflects the March 2001 closure of New York City’s Fresh Kills Landfill —
the city’s last disposal facility.
New Jersey’s estimated exports, 5.4 million tons, have also grown dramatically.
In New Jersey’s case, the cause of increased exports is the overturning of the state’s
flow control law, which, until 1997, directed much of the state’s waste to high-cost
local facilities for disposal. The state law was overturned and the state exhausted its
appeals in October 1997. Exports have since grown by about 3 million tons per year.
Illinois’ exports, at 3.1 million tons, declined slightly in 2001, after several years
of rapid growth: despite the decline, the state’s exports in 2001 were still three and
a half times the amount reported for 1995.⁶ Most of the exports originate in Cook
County (Chicago and its suburbs), which has a relative shortage of disposal capacity.
Illinois as a whole reported a more than doubling of landfill capacity between 1995
and 2000, but Chicago is located near the border of both Indiana and Wisconsin; so
increases in capacity elsewhere in Illinois may not affect disposal decisions in the
metropolitan area.
In all, 13 states (and Ontario, Canada) increased waste exports by more than
100,000 tons each in the period, while 4 states had major decreases. In addition to
the exporters discussed above, Pennsylvania and Maryland showed the largest
increases (although in Pennsylvania’s case, the increased exports were dwarfed by
additional waste entering the state). Among states showing decreased exports,
California showed the largest drop, a reduction of nearly 450,000 tons.
Net Imports and Exports
Table 3 combines import and export data to rank the states by net amounts
imported or exported. The table shows that 25 states were net importers, 22 plus the
District of Columbia were net exporters. Thirty-nine of the 50 states had net imports
or exports exceeding 100,000 tons in the reporting period; 23 exceeded 500,000 tons.
Perhaps most interesting, given the tendency to identify states as either exporters or
importers, 17 states both exported and imported in excess of 100,000 tons of
municipal solid waste.
Several factors are at work here. In the larger states, there are sometimes
differences in available disposal capacity in different regions within the state. Areas
without capacity may be closer to landfills (or may at least find cheaper disposal
options) in other states. A good example is Illinois: the Chicago area, which is close
to two other states, exports significant amounts of waste out of state. Downstate,
however, Illinois has substantial available landfill capacity, and imports about 1
million tons annually from St. Louis and other locations in Missouri.
As noted earlier, the movement of waste also represents the growing
regionalization and consolidation of the waste industry. In 2001, the three largest
firms (Waste Management, Allied Waste, and Republic Services) accounted for 73%

⁶ Illinois, like most states, does not report waste exports. This export estimate was derived
from data provided by neighboring states.

of total revenues of the industry’s 100 largest firms.⁷ These large firms offer
integrated waste services, from collection to transfer station to disposal site, in many
locations. Often, they ship waste to their own disposal facility across a border, rather
than dispose of it at an in-state facility owned by a rival. As small landfills continue
to close — the number of U.S. landfills declined 52% between 1993 and 2000⁸ —
this trend toward regionalization and consolidation is likely to continue. The amount
of waste being shipped across state lines for disposal may rise in this process.
