Landfill Regulation
• All solid waste management companies must have access to a disposal facility• Third parties pay fees to use WM’s
disposal and transfer facilities• High costs associated with planning to meet
agency requirements for various facilities
• Location restrictions• Liner requirements• Leachate collection and removal system• Frequently compacting and covering• Groundwater monitoring Closure and post-
closure care• Corrective action• Financial assurance• Disposable waste dependent on permit
• Contracts increasingly focused on reduced environmental impact

Key Risks
10
ü Certain regulations serve as a barrier to entry and positively benefit WM
ü Over the last several years WM has restructured our recycling contracts by removing floor pricing and adding contamination and processing fees
ü Sustainability expertise mitigates risk of shifting contract terms
ü Increased reliance on natural gas reduces risk of increased diesel prices
ü Increased ability to generate natural gas from landfills reduces risk of increasing natural gas prices
ü Vertical integration reduces risk of third parties raising rates
û Increased regulation raising the cost of operations
û China continues ban on imported key commodities
û Changes in oil and gas prices and drilling activity, and changes in applicable regulations, could adversely affect WM’s EES organization
û Developments in technology could trigger a fundamental change in the waste management industry
û Weak economic conditions may negatively affect the volumes of waste generated and demand for post-consumer fiber and metals processed
û Diesel fuel price increases or diesel fuel supply shortages may increase their expenses and restrict their ability to operate
û Failure to pass on recycling costs in future contracts
