SUCCESS — The state Department of Environmental Services has approved the expansion of the Mt. Carberry landfill, extending its life until at least 2041.

With the current landfill expected to reach capacity in 2026-2027, the Androscoggin Valley Regional Refuse and Disposal District filed a permit modification to expand the landfill, adding almost 5 million cubic yards of capacity. A public hearing on the request was held at city hall in Berlin in December and the public had until Jan. 7 to file written comments.
