The Bureau of Solid and Hazardous Waste is responsible for the planning, 
management and regulation of solid and hazardous waste.  Operations range 
from recycling, waste reduction, household hazardous waste, and pollution 
prevention to permitting of solid waste management facilities and hazardous 
waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities. The Bureau also establishes 
regulatory and management criteria for special wastes such as waste tires, 
ash, used oil, batteries and mercury devices.

The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data
compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from
the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is
collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources)
who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in
FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the
data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees
about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check
with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.

Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'.
The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties
or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data
provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability
of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited
to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using,

A note about data scale: 

Scale is an important factor in data usage.  Certain scale datasets
are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes.
Please be sure you are using the best available data. 

1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
county level.
1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such
as property parcel boundaries.
1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
multi-county or regional level.
1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
regional or state level or larger.

Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be
considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data
before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been
made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional
information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact
section of this documentation. For more information regarding
scale and accuracy, see our webpage at:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
GeoPlan downloaded this data from The Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(http://appprod.dep.state.fl.us/WWW_WACS/Reports/SW_Facility_Inventory_P1.asp)
in September of 2008. When downloaded the data was in tabular form. A Microsoft xl 
document was created and converted to dbf. Latitude and longitude fields provided with
the data were converted to decimal degrees and used to add xy spatial data using the add
xy data tool in ArcMap.

- CLASS_DESC and CLASS_GEN fields were added
  based on Facility Class Type Codes.
- Added a DESCRIPT field based on CLASS_DESC
- Added FGDLAQDATE field based on date downloaded from source
- Added AUTOID field based on FID+1
