<br /> <br />Recommendations <br />If it is determined that a processing facility will be developed to divert reusable and <br />recyclable materials from incoming loads, a decision will be required regarding the type <br />of facility (i.e., manual vs. semi-automated). The type of facility that is developed will <br />have an impact on the quantity of waste materials which are diverted, and therefore the <br />quantity of remaining waste which will require disposal. <br />Decisions are also required regarding suitable locations for any new C8~D processing, <br />transfer andlor landfill disposal facilities for C8~D waste materials, as well as the <br />financing and ownership of the selected facilities. <br />Facih '`:.: PotentiaG Locations <br />C8~D Processing Facility • Greene Tract <br />• manual Unfilled area of existing landfill site <br />• semi-automated Purchase of additional property <br />Disposal • Greene Tract <br />• C&D Transfer Station Unfilled area of existing landfill site <br />• C8~D Landfill Purchase of additional property <br />Note: a C&D transfer station would likely be developed in conjunction with a transfer <br />facility for mixed solid waste. <br />In order to ensure adequate time for the planning, development and construction of the <br />necessary facilities to manage CS~D waste materials beyond the life of the existing C&D <br />landfill, member governments must make immediate decisions regarding the preferred <br />future diversion and disposal option(s) for C&D waste materials. Even with the current <br />diversion activities for CAD waste materials, new diversion and disposal options will be <br />required when the existing C&D disposal site reaches capacity in approximately <br />eighteen months. Eighteen months, or more, will be required .for. the planning, <br />development, and construction of C&D waste management facilities. <br />Memo: C8D Waste Management 3 1~~y98 <br />
