Re: Substantial Change in Operation at Colorado Landfill, Inc.
Erie, Colorado
Dear Ms. Johnson:
On December 12, 1985, the Colorado Department of Health, Waste Management
Division received a letter from Western Disposal informing us that the
Columbine Landfill has been purchased by Western Disposal in Boulder,
Colorado. A subsequent letter was sent to Western Disposal outlining the
proper procedures to be followed whenever transfer of ownership occurs, a copy
of this letter has been enclosed for your files. In this letter we requested
additional information pertaining to the qualifications, names and addresses
of the persons operating the facility, and who have authority to take
corrective action in the event of non-compliance with the Regulations
Pertaining to Solid Waste Disposal Sites and Facilities.
On February 4, 1986, Western Disposal provided a response to our request which
has been determined to adequately comply with the minimum standards of the
Solid Waste Disposal Sites and Facilities Act (Title 30, Article 20 Part 1,
CRS 1985, as amended) and Department regulations adopted pursuant thereto,
provided the facility continues to be operated as designed and approved.
If you have any questions, please contact this me at 320-8333, ext. 4364.

Re: Purchase of Columbine Landfill by Western Disposal
Dear Mr. Souders:
On December 12, 1985, the Waste Management Division of the Colorado Department
of Health received your letter dated December 11th which indicated that
Western Disposal had purchased the Columbine Landfill from the Keirnes
Corporation. You should be aware that this purchase is considered a
substantial change in operation which requires an amendment to the existing
Certificate of Designation. Substantial change in operation is defined as --
any redesign or planned construction which would significantly change the
planned design performance of a facility for solid waste disposal as
originally designated, the addition of a category of wastes or other waste
handling processes that have not been previously reviewed and accepted as
complying with these regulations, or the selling or transferring of the
certificate of designation to a new operator.
Based upon this information, your company must request, from the Weld County
Board of County Commissioners, a change in the existing Certificate of
Designation. Prior to their approval the Commissioners must receive a
recommendation for approval from this Department. Therefore, please provide
information which adequately and correctly addresses subsection 4.7.1 of the
Regulations Pertaining to Solid Waste Disposal Sites and Facilities. This
regulation specifically requires information regarding the qualification,
names and addresses of the persons operating the facility and who have the
authority to take corrective action in the event of non-compliance with these
regulations.
Further, because of this purchase, does your company intend to continue using
the operational plan already on file or will a new plan be submitted? Please
be aware new, or revised plans intended for use will again constitute a
substantial change and require an amended Certificate of Designation.
