Materials Recovery Facility Plan

Business Plan for a MATERIALS RECOVERY FACILITY For Presentation to the Board of Directors August 6, 2009 Executive Summary The core mission of the Monroe County Solid Waste Management District ("the District") is to reduce the amount of waste going to final disposal. The primary way to fulfill this core mission has always been for the District to provide free disposal of recyclables to the general public as well as industry. For the past several years, the District has been outsourcing the processing of recyclables, causing the District to provide this service at a substantial deficit. By constructing its own Materials Recovery Facility ("MRF"), the District believes that it can provide this same service more efficiently while significantly reducing the deficit. This Business Plan clearly demonstrates that the District will be well served by owning and operating its own Materials Recovery Facility. The undertaking is considered a part of the District's core function and has been incorporated in its twenty year plan. Full Text PDF
