In 2003, a Permit to Construct for Phase 1, and Permit to Operate for Phase 1 Cell A were issued to Material Recovery, LLC, owned by MRR Southern, LLC. The Permit to Construct was recorded on February 14, 2003, at Book 9914, Pages 701 – 720 in the Wake County Register of Deeds. 2. On or about April 5, 2005, business entities which were wholly owned by WCA Waste Corporation purchased four solid waste management facilities in North Carolina owned by MRR Southern, LLC, including the construction and demolition waste landfill permitted to Material Recovery, LLC. Subsequent to the purchase of the facility, WCA obtained a franchise for the landfill from Wake County and applied for the permit to operate the facility to be re-issued to WCA Waste Systems, Inc. and Material Recovery, LLC. During this period, WCA continued to operate the landfill as previously permitted to Material Recovery, LLC. The permit that approved the ownership change was issued in January 2008. Permit No. 9231 Brownfield Road C&D Landfill August 18, 2016 Document ID No. 26176 Page 5 of 19 3. WCA Waste Corporation requested a modification to the franchise to expand the franchise coverage area to include Harnett, Wayne, Wilson, Nash, Warren, Vance, Granville, Person, Caswell, Alamance, and Lee counties. Wake County adopted an ordinance modifying the franchise on September 20, 2010. 4. A transfer of permit to Wake Reclamation, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Waste Industries USA, Inc., was requested in February 2012. Wake Reclamation, LLC agreed to operate the facility in accordance with the existing permit until a permit was issued reflecting the change in ownership. Wake County adopted an ordinance amending the franchise for the landfill on October 15, 2012. An amendment to the permit changing the owner and operator was issued October 22, 2012, as Permit 9231-CDLF-2012. List of Documents for the Approved Plan 1.
