It is essential for California to safely dispose of its own hazardous waste, and Kettleman Hills is essential to achieving that goal. A premier world-class facility, Kettleman Hills is also the most thoroughly analyzed hazardous waste facility in the country.
The Kettleman Hills Facility is a fully permitted, 1,600 acre hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facility located 3.5 miles southwest of Kettleman City. I-5, the California Aqueduct and a range of hills called the North Kettleman Dome run between Kettleman City and the Kettleman Hills Facility. In 2008 Waste Management applied to the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) to expand a hazardous waste cell from 53 to 67 acres within the facility’s existing footprint.
