For purpoaea of example, theRappahannock Newt aaked Mr. Holstein if his plant could handle an additional 9,000 tons of waste per year. He said it could, provided the supplier had alternate plans for waste disposal during the off-peak months, a period Mr. Holsten said ran approximately from mid-May to mid-October.
Mr. Holsten said the City of Harrisonburg might be willing to entertain a contract with another county. No other county outside Rockingham haa entered into a contract with the dty, he said.
Mr. Holsten said if Rappahannock was interested in what the plant could do for the county, he would be the person to contact to determine the feasibility of any venture. His supervisor, Assistant City Manager John Driver, would be the person with whom to discuss contracts, Mr. Holsten said.
Mr. Holsten welcomed visitors to the plant, which has been in operation since November 1962. He said an ad hoc committee from Madison County recently visited. He said that, other than in summertime, the plant could have met Madison’s needs. His recommendation to Madison: Pursue a “joint venture” with another county that has a similar waste-disposal situation.
