history

The landfill was built in 1974 by the municipality of Rastede in an old clay pit and used until 1984 to deposit around 0.3 million m³ of municipal waste from the municipalities of Rastede and Wiefelstede. Up until 1991, around 0.1 million m³ of building rubble and soil from the entire Ammerland district was also deposited here. The waste package is eight meters thick on average.

In 1999, the Hahn-Lehmden landfill was the first in Lower Saxony to be transferred from the operational phase to the aftercare phase. She has since been monitored on the basis of a follow-up plan.

Since the spring of 2008, the seepage water from the landfill has been allowed to be discharged directly into the Rehbäke as receiving waters after the requirements for wastewater in accordance with the wastewater ordinance Annex 51, which regulates the pollution of wastewater from above-ground waste disposal, have been met. The approximately 20,000 m³ of leachate from the landfill annually only pass through a cascade of three settling and equalization basins in the north of the landfill and no longer have to be treated additionally by the waste management company.
