Continued from page 1 the closure plan to be submitted by Clifton Clark, owner of the dump site, and Community Trash Disposal Inc., the firm that supplies and maintains the county dumpsters and operates the landfill jointly with Mr. Clark.
Under the terms of its contract with the county, Community Trash takes responsibility for all solid waste once it’s deposited in the dumpsters; closure of the Clark property landfill would leave Community Trash without a disposal site for the county’s trash and without the means for fulfilling its contractual obligations.
By approving the 10-foot lift, “we’re providing a way for everyone to meet their obligations . . . This is something we don’t want to make a big deal of. We’re just going to go ahead and let it go,” Mr. Forman said, adding that the state director of Solid Waste Management has approved the plan while emphasizing that “positively this is it. ”
He noted that elevated solid waste disposal — in essence, piling dirt on top of trash — is permitted if an approved plan for the landfill shows the raised contours. The permit for the Clark property does not. However, the lift can be authorized as an exception, using a precedent established in Henrico County, according to Mr. Forman. (That county was in the process of establishing a new landfill when a spell of rainy weather interrupted completion of the trenches.)
