ARROWHEAD DELIVERS CAPACITY, UNMATCHED LOGISTICAL CAPABILITY, AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS TO ITS CUSTOMERS, COMMUNITIES

UNIONTOWN, AL (August 16, 2012)—Arrowhead offers a uniquely designed, high capacity disposal facility for customers, communities and a wide range of industries across 33 states. Located above the Selma Chalk Formation, Arrowhead is one of the most environmentally sound disposal facilities in the nation.

“With large capacity, unmatched logistical capabilities, railway access, and regulatory permitting for a wide range of wastes, Arrowhead is uniquely positioned to meet the expanding needs of a wide range of customers,” said Ernest Kaufmann, President of Green Group Holdings, LLC (which recently acquired Arrowhead). “Arrowhead’s leadership has set the standard for environmental stewardship and our adherence to strict environmental and safety standards mitigate our customers’ risks and liability.”

Arrowhead, located in south central Alabama, is a 1,345-acre greenfield development with a 425-acre Subtitle D footprint. The facility has 75 million cubic yards of permitted airspace and can receive up to 15,000 tons of waste per day. Proximity to major rail lines allows Arrowhead to handle waste disposal from communities and companies as far away as the East Coast and Texas.

As one of the largest rail-served disposal facilities east of the Mississippi River, Arrowhead and its experienced team can help design and deliver disposal plans for a wide range of industries and customers. “From utilities and municipalities to industrial waste generators, Arrowhead provides waste disposal service in a safe, cost-effective and efficient manner,” Kaufmann added.

Arrowhead’s geographic position, logistical capabilities and safety standards set the facility apart in the marketplace in a number of ways, including:

• A superior location above the naturally occurring geological Selma Chalk Formation, providing a safer, environmentally responsible disposal option;
• Direct rail access, reducing transportation costs while reaching a wider customer base;
• Geographic reach, serving 33 states including all states east of the Mississippi River, all states along the western edge of the Mississippi River, Oklahoma and Texas**;
• Capacity to safely accept and manage coal combustion residue (CCR), mitigating its customers’ risks and liability; and
• Proven and unparalleled rail transfer capabilities including the efficient, responsible management of more than 4 million tons of CCR and a production schedule of up to 120 railcars per day.

Permitted for Subtitle D disposal, Arrowhead Landfill can serve a broad range of industries, including utilities and energy, health care, pharmaceutical, exploration and production, recycling and reuse, steel production and more. The facility can accept municipal solid waste, construction and demolition debris, and other non-hazardous special and industrial waste streams.

“Arrowhead and its people maintain the highest levels of integrity, operational excellence, and unsurpassed environmental and safety standards,” said Kaufmann.
