Dear Mr. Roweder:
The Board of Weld County Commissioners has received a Notice of Violation
for Solid Waste Disposal Sites from the Colorado Department of Health.
That notice states that the Brighton-Ft. Lupton site and the Windsor
site do not meet the minimum standards required in CRS 30-20-110
of the Solid Waste Disposal Site and Facilities Act of 1976.
Under Section 112 of that Act, the Board of County Commissioners, "after
reasonable notice and public hearing, shall temporarily suspend or revoke
a certificate of designation that has been granted by it for failure of a
site facility to comply with all applicable laws, resolutions, ordinances
or to comply with the provisions of this Part 1 or any rule or regulation
adopted pursuant thereto. "
We are attaching the exhibits for the non-complying sites. The Board must
submit a written reply to the State Department of Health by December 15th;
therefore, we wish to have, in writing, your compliance schedule to upgrade
the sites which are in non-compliance. The Board has scheduled a work
session at 4 PM on Monday, December 11th at which time the Board will review
your proposal for compliance. Please plan to attend that session.
Should you have any questions concerning the provisions required in the
compliance plan, please contact Mr. Joe Meek, District Engineer with the
State Health Department, or Mr. Albert J. Hazle, Director of the Radiation
and Hazardous Wastes Control Division, State Health Dept (Phone 320-8333) .
Please confirm by telephone with the Commissioners ' Office that you will
be attending that meeting. Thank you for your prompt attention to this
matter.
