AR14'989 <br />BOOK 76 Fi GE 382 <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously ratified <br />the name of Treasure Shores Park so that the revised <br />management plan can be resubmitted to DNR for agency <br />review. <br />SOLID WASTE RECYCLING STUDY - CAMP DRESSER & McKEE, INC. <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 313189: <br />DATE: MARCH 3, 1989 <br />TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />THRU: TERRANCE G. PINTO, DIRECTOR <br />SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL DISTRIC <br />FROM: RONALD R. BROOKS, MANAGER <br />SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL DISTRICT <br />SUBJECT: SOLID WASTE RECYCLING STUDY <br />CAMP DRESSER AND MCKEE, INC. <br />BACKGROUND <br />Current Florida legislation mandates that the Solid Waste Stream <br />within each County be reduced by specific amounts within specific <br />deadlines. Part of that volume reduction must be accomplished <br />through the recycling of recoverable resources that are a part of <br />the Solid Waste Stream. A program for recycling certain recoverable <br />resources must be initiated by July 1, 1989. <br />ANALYSIS <br />Resource Recovery through recycling of recoverable resources is an <br />expensive and time consuming endeavor that will significantly affect <br />the County, the Solid Waste Collection businesses, and the public at <br />large. It is, therefore, imperative that all aspects of recycling <br />of solid waste be thoroughly addressed by knowledgeable and <br />qualified individuals so that the costs and effectiveness of the <br />various recycling alternatives are evaluated and placed in proper <br />perspective. <br />Typical problems associated with establishing a successful recycling <br />program are: <br />1. While reducing the waste stream to the County Landfill <br />through recycling_, the disposal costs and the costs for <br />space taken are reduced; but so are revenues. There is a <br />limit to the extent that revenues can affordably be <br />reduced since not only will the debt service not change at <br />any time soon, but the costs for the implementation of the <br />recycling program can be extremely high. <br />2. The State legislation mandates that recycling efforts be <br />jointly assumed with the municipalities through interlocal <br />agreements. The waste collection and recycling capacities <br />of the municipalities must also be addressed in any <br />recycling efforts initiated by the County. <br />3.4 <br />
