Recitals
A. The City owns and operates a solid waste disposal area known as the Salina
Landfill and legally described as:
Section Seven (7), Township Fifteen (15), Range Three (3)
West of the 6th P.M. in Saline County, Kansas (the "Salina

B. The City has been designated as the Solid Waste Management Planning
Authority for Saline County, Kansas by interlocal agreement with Saline County dated
January 24, 1994, in accordance with K.S.A. 65-3405(b).
C. Consistent with and in furtherance of the Kansas waste management policy set
forth in K.S.A. 65-3401, the City in Resolution No. 93-4605 adopted June 7, 1993, expressed
its desire to cooperate with counties in the North Central Kansas Regional Planning
Commission ("NCKRPC') area by providing a means for the disposal of waste generated in
those counties in the Salina SWDA.
D. Lincoln County desires to dispose municipal solid waste ("MSW') generated
in Lincoln County in the Salina SWDA.
IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the
parties agree as follows:
1. Authorization. The City authorizes the County to dispose of MSW generated in
the County by depositing such waste in the Salina SWDA pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
2. Term. This Agreement shall be effective commencing April 5, 1994 and shall
remain in effect for a term of three (3) years until April 5, 1997, unless otherwise terminated
as provided in this Agreement.
3. Charges. The charges for disposal of MSW generated in Lincoln Gounty shall be
based upon the regular rates charged to Saline County residents, as those charges may be
amended from time to time by resolution of the City's governing body (the "Base Rate"),
plus a $2 per ton host county special charge.
a. Until April 30, 1994. From the date of this Agreement through April 30,
1994, the Base Rate in effect for out-of-county MSW shall be $8. Consequently,
during that period, Lincoln County MSW will be received by the Salina SWDA for
a charge of $10 per ton ($8 Base Rate plus $2 special charge).
b. Begjnning May 1, 1994. The parties acknowledge that the City's governing
body has set a Base Rate of $16 per ton, effective May 1, 1994. Consequently,
beginning May 1, 1994, Lincoln County MSW will be received by the Salina SWDA
for a charge of $18 per ton ($16 Base Rate plus $2 special charge).
c. Future changes. While the Base Rate may change during the term of this
Agreement, the $2 per ton special charge shall remain the same throughout the term
of this Agreement. For example, if the City's governing body increases the Base Rate
by $1 per ton (to $17) effective January 1, 1995, the rate for Lincoln County MSW
would be $19 per ton ($17 Base Rate plus $2 special charge).

the County with a monthly billing statement for charges incurred as a result of the disposal
of MSW generated in Lincoln County delivered to the SWDA by haulers specified by the
County in the written request. It shall be the responsibility of any other haulers delivering
MSW generated in Lincoln County to arrange for payment of the applicable charges with
the City. In either case the charges shall be payable according to terms established by the
City's Department of Finance.

same manner and subject to the same ordinances, rules and regulations as apply to Saline
County MSW. Any party transporting Lincoln County MSW to the Salina SWDA for
disposal pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have submitted to the City's

relating to the disposal of solid waste in the Salina SWDA. Any party transmitting only
Lincoln County MSW to the Salina SWDA shall be exempt from the City's permit
requirement for disposal of waste originating outside Saline County.

handling, equipment, or facilities not currently used in the City's operation of the Salina
