On July 12, 2019, a J. P. Mascaro & Sons related company, Valero Terrestrial Corporation, was awarded a new five year operating permit by the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection for the Brooke County Landfill in Colliers, Brooke County, West Virginia, which is about 22 miles from the city of Pittsburgh.
The Brooke County Landfill is one of two Mascaro-related landfills in West Virginia, the other being the Wetzel County Landfill in New Martinsville, West Virginia.
The Brooke and Wetzel County Landfills serve as the primary disposal facilities for waste collected by the two operating divisions of Solid Waste Services of West Virginia, Inc., the Mascaro-related collection company that serves municipal, commercial and industrial customers in the panhandle region of West Virginia and in eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania.
Speaking to the new five year facility permit, company Director of Engineering, Ryan K. Inch, P.E., said, "The Brooke County Landfill is an important component of the operational infrastructure of the Mascaro-related waste service businesses in West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania. These businesses not only serve our municipal, commercial and industrial customers, but also are important to the thriving Marcellus and Utica Shale gas development activities occurring in that three state regional area."
Brooke County Landfill company President, Pat Mascaro, said, "The company is pleased to have earned this DEP facility permit, and we look forward to providing regional area waste disposal services for years to come."
