unsuccesful, as were attempts to contact Harlan Rexrod. (Mr. Rexrod is the division’s regional representative for both the Shenandoah Valley and the district which includes Rappahannock, filling the second post until a replacement is named for Robert Forman, who recently retired following a stroke.)
Last year, the Clark landfill was granted an extension until this July 1 over the objections of neighboring landowners. To head off a threatened court suit, the county supervisors agreed to give those land-owners written notice if an extension of the deadline was to be considered. The notice went out last week. “If it’s a choice between $1,000 a day to haul to Richmond or $165 per day to use the Clark site, the choice seems obvious,” Mr. McCarthy said at the time.
“Looks real good” in Amissville
While the board is scurrying to find a place for Rappahannock’s trash in the short term, testing for a long term solution continues at the 100-acre Stover tract near Amissville, which the county has contracted to buy if it is approved as a landfill site by the state.
“It looks real good,” said Mr. McCarthy of the initial test results at the Stover tract. Borings show an average soil depth of 20 to 25 feet on the ridges, with some areas as deep as 65 feet, he said, adding that fiirther soil studies on the core samples taken in the borings are now being conducted. “We have a lot of testing stiS to go.”
