Potential NABORS Landfill Sale

With just days left in 2022, efforts are underway to close on a proposed sale of the NABORS Landfill in northern Baxter County before the year closes.

In addition to the 698-acre site, the proposed sale would apparently include the facility and property on Rossi Road in Mountain Home that once served as the company’s sanitation office. 

Bull Shoals Mayor David Nixon serves as the chair of the five-county Ozark Mountain Solid Waste Board. Mayor Nixon tells KTLO in Mountain Home that progress to sell the properties is being made bit-by-bit on a daily basis. He says the hope is to have the transaction completed by the end of December. 

The Ozark Mountain Solid Waste District includes Baxter, Boone, Marion, Newton and Searcy counties, with Carroll having withdrawn from the group in 2019. 

Nixon says last summer the solid waste board learned an investment group was interested in reopening the landfill.
Documents obtained by KTLO, Classic Hits and The Boot news identifies the potential buyer as Lakeshore Recycling Systems (LRS), LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.  

The full story from Karen Hopper and Phillip Launius can be read on the KTLO Website.
