Summary

Butler County approved a $15,410 purchase from EPG Companies to replace a vandalized, pieced-together leachate control panel and restore monitoring and control functions at the landfill.

The Board approved a $15,410 purchase from EPG Companies to replace the landfill’s leachate flow meter, flow sensor, paddle wheel and control panel after staff concluded the existing control panel had been modified repeatedly, vandalized and was no longer safe or reliable. Public Works Director Curtis Mader said many sensors were disconnected or nonfunctional and replacement with EPG components was necessary for compatibility.

Commissioner Jeff Masterson moved to approve the purchase; Commissioner Kelly Herzet seconded and the motion carried 5-0. Staff emphasized the purchase restores monitoring needed for proactive leachate management.
