5. To account for reserved capacity (reserved ERU's) and not impose undue requirements on the facilities which are operating below their design capacity, the following requirement shall be met; when total sold capacity (existing ERU's connected plus reserved ERU's) reaches 100% of the designed capacity of the plant, the county must apply for an expansion permit regardless of the existing operating demand. (2) Solid Waste (a) Solid Waste Available Capacity Due to the fact that there is only one landfill which serves the entire county, monitoring of the available facility capacity for solid waste is less complicated than other components of the concurrency management systems. The entire county has been pre -approved until the year 1993, unless conditions change based on the reports required in Section 910.09(2)(b) 4 and 5 of this regulation. To satisfy the Solid Waste Concurrency Management requirement, the Utilities Department shall issue a statement of no impact before the Community Development Department issues any initial or final concurrency determination certificate. (b) Solid Waste Facility Monitoring With regard to the following expansion criteria established in the Comprehensive Plan, the concurrency management system for solid waste will monitor the capacity of the landfill by ensuring sufficient capacity in the active segment of the landfill. 1. Design for additional burial segments of the landfill shall be completed before the active segment of the landfill is at 70% of its capacity. 2. Construction of additional burial segments shall begin when the active segment is at 75% of its capacity. 3. If the active segment is at 90% of its capacity and the new segment is not ready, additional development shall not be permitted. 4. The Solid Waste Disposal District shall prepare annual summaries of demand and capacity information for the active segment of the landfill. 124
