GUIDELINES AND PRIORITIES
:The following is an outline of basic items for negotiation with a County or
-Municipality, interested in participating in a demonstration sanitary landfill
project. The project funds are to defray some additional costs over and above those
-- - normally incurred in design, operation and closure of a sanitary landfill . The items
suggested for investigation are 'fisted in order of priority. ($37 ,700 have been
budgeted for the project). The objective is to obtain useful information in Solid
Taste Management pertinent to this type of site location. - .
'—"The community with which we would negotiate a contract must have or be able to
-arrange for: -- •
y/l. A solid waste disposal site and facility, utilizing a gravel pit adjacent
- .- . . : -=-:, . . __to a stream.
_An engineering report and plan.
3n Fly opinion there can be little change from this type of site. Of course, we
- --only want to add items to an engineering report and plan which already exists or will
--exist for a normal disposal facility operation.
- .In my opinion we should ask the community to' supply the Department with the
Department with the following: •
3. Those additions to the engineering report and plan which detail the items
- we are interested i; Laving investigated, researched and reported. Only for
these would reimbursement on a 50-50 basis be made, not the entire report
and plan. •
• 2. Specific items to be listed in the engineering report and plan are to be
investigated , researched, and reported. "
