Staff mapping showed municipal solid waste generation and facility locations across seven counties feeding Coffin Butte; members noted Marion County generates the most tons and emphasized transfer stations, MRFs, composting facilities and household hazardous waste operations in planning.

Greg Gamble led a walkthrough of two memoranda mapping waste generation and facility assets across the seven counties that feed Coffin Butte. The maps distinguished generated tons from disposed tons (staff noted Marion County generates roughly 625,000 tons but currently disposes about 330,000 tons), cataloged municipal and non‑municipal landfills, transfer stations, MRFs, composters and household hazardous waste facilities, and identified closed landfills that remain in post‑closure monitoring.
