. <br /> Because the prior report was two years late,the planning period covered included 2005-06, <br /> 2006-07 and 2007-08, so the accomplishments of that period are not reiterated in this report. <br /> Simultaneously,the County was also engaged in a multi-year transfer station siting process that <br /> had identified several possible sites. By the end of 2007-08 the Board of County Commissioners <br /> na.rrowed its site search to a set of three adjacent sites along Highway 54 West. Late in the <br /> process,after one site along Highway 54 had been selected for detailed site analysis,the County <br /> added two publicly owned sites near the existing landfill to its consideration. Ultimately in <br /> December 2009, the BOCC decided not to construct a transfer station in Orange County in the <br /> next three to five years following landfill closure,but to instead direct haul waste out of County <br /> and consider other options and other technologies. A motion adopted to that effect is included as <br /> Appendix A to this report. <br /> Summary of Technical Reports presented since mid-2008 <br /> Beginning in mid-2008 and through 2009, solid waste plan development focus continued to be <br /> relatively broad, covering topics ranging from development of a solid waste system-wide <br /> fmancial projection and plan for the entire enterprise fund,to a set of options for commercial <br /> recycling collections and an iterative series of options for managing both waste and recycling in <br /> the unincorporated areas of the County. Detailed reports and presentations were provided and <br /> they are available from the Sold Waste Department.
