The County hired consultants develop the following documents:
Integration Plan for a Single-Stream Recycling Curbside Collection Program(PDF, 1MB) to 1) Assess quantities of recyclables that could potentially be diverted from the residential waste stream currently received at the County Refuse Transfer Stations and recyclables received at the drop-off locations; 2) Develop reasonable assumptions for cost model inputs; 3) Estimate the cost to implement a curbside recycling program; and 4) Provide a useful decision-making tool for the County.
Material Recovery Facility (MRF) Evaluation(PDF, 1MB) to outline conceptual development assumptions, estimate rough order of magnitude capital and operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, and assess key factors related to the development of a MRF for integration into the County’s solid waste management program.
Summary Memorandum(PDF, 259KB) that summarizes the findings of the above reports, and provides a combined cost summary to implement a curbside recycling program along with conclusions.
