Orlando, FL – SCS Engineers is supporting the County of Volusia’s green capital improvement plan by expanding the Tomoka Farms Road Landfill. SCS was also recently selected to be Volusia County’s solid waste engineer. The SCS office in Orlando is managing the work.
The capital improvement project expanding the landfill into Phase Ill Area 4 will create the needed air space providing operations that are more efficient. SCS Engineers will be responsible for construction oversight and engineering services during the construction. The County selected the firm with the most experience in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) cell construction projects in Florida. SCS currently supports 22 counties in Florida.

Beyond engineering support, SCS provides advice, direction, and support to the County’s Solid Waste Division for more effective and efficient operations. The industry is experiencing rapidly changing markets and embracing new technologies to help with recycling, collections, federal, state and local compliance to improve the sustainable management of solid waste.
