Industry Leadership
We are:
- First in Minnesota to develop a state-of-the-art landfill for C & D wastes.
- First to develop a large-scale C & D waste processing / transfer facility in Minnesota.
- First to develop a network for processing large volumes of organic waste in Minnesota.
- First in Minnesota to develop and operate a processing facility for MSW food waste composted into an excellent soil amendment to rival commercial fertilizer applications.
We have:
- A compliance record that’s unequalled—we’ve never received a citation or notice of violation for any of our operations in SKB’s entire history.
- Participated in numerous advisory committees helping Minnesota government agencies shape progressive environmental regulations.
- Earned the high regard, respect, and rapport of all regulatory and permitting agencies.
- Customer loyalty because we’re committed to customer satisfaction, service, and value.
We will continue to:
- Meet our environmental responsibilities.
- Provide cost-effective and dependable service.
- Improve our services.
- Develop new facilities and capabilities as customer needs and technology emerge and change.
- Provide additional and needed support to our local communities.
We believe that industry leadership means making the commitment to be active participants:
- SKB’s staff serves in leadership roles for the National Association of Demolition Contractors (NADC), the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA), the National Solid Waste Management Association (NSWMA), the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, the Recycling Association of Minnesota (RAM), and as members of numerous other groups working on planning, management, and regulation of the waste industry.
- SKB has been a driving force, bringing America Recycles Day to Minnesota, earning commendations from Minnesota’s Governor.
- When the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) developed a certification program for C & D landfill operators several years ago, MPCA staff turned to SKB for help teaching the course. Six times annually, SKB staff provides training in facility operations, management, equipment and maintenance, and regulatory reporting.
Making our knowledge and experience available to improve our industry is what SKB Environmental is all about.
