County solid-waste budget includes Casella reimbursements and expanded composting programs

County department staff briefed PEQ on solid-waste and landfill account lines tied to the county's contract with Casella. The presenter said two county employees working at the landfill are 100% reimbursed by Casella and that Casella pays a $20,000 engineering reimbursement; those pass-throughs affected the expense-by-program presentation. "So all of our lease payments, our revenue sharing payments are all going into those accounts," the presenter said.
