Following the BOOCdirective from their June 6 meeting I have contacted all known small
private hauling businesses operating in the County. I indicated in my inquiry to them that the
BOOChas requested that I contact small haulersto:
• verify that they understood that the county landfill was closing effective Jane 30
• Inquire if they had determined another disposal facility to which to deliver their waste
and if so,which facility
• If they had not determined where they would deliver their waste would they
need/desire assistance finding a disposal facility
o Approximately how much waste do they collect and what type of vehicle did
they use
