4.1 Public Hearing Solid Waste Management PlanAGENDA SECTION NO: ITEM NO: Page I CITY OF SALINA REQUEST FOR CITY COMMISSION ACTION DATE TIME 9/26/2022 4:00 P.M. ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Public Works Department/GS BY: Jim Kowach, P.E. " FISCAL APPROVAL: BY: FINAL APPROVAL: BY: J_\ ITEM: 1. Hold a public hearing on the Salina/Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan. 2. Consider Resolution 22-8072 approving the Solid Waste Management Plan for Salina/Saline County as part of the required Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) five-year review process. The revised Solid Waste Management Plan and the required attachments must be submitted to the KDHE for approval prior to the December 4, 2022 deadline. BACKGROUND: In 1970, the Kansas Legislature adopted an Act concerning solid waste management planning, which included a requirement that each county within the State of Kansas submit a workable plan for the management of solid waste. In 1994, the City of Salina and Saline County entered into an interlocal agreement, designating the City of Salina as the solid waste management planning authority. In accordance with Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) regulations, designated authorities are required to conduct an annual review of their Plan and hold a public hearing every five years to set future solid waste management goals for the County or region and to consider any changes. As the governing body that oversees the Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan, the City Commission must act upon this recommendation concerning the five-year update to the plan in order to comply with K.S.A. 65-3405 (D)(1) and K.A.R. 28-29-80(c) and (d)(3)(b). A signed copy of the resolution approving the 2022 Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan, a copy of the approved Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan, a KDHE Bureau of Waste Management Solid Waste Management plan 5 -year Update Worksheet, a copy of the public notice verifying that a public hearing was properly held on the Solid Waste Management Plan, and a current Solid Waste Management Committee member list is due to the KDHE not later than December 4, 2022. On August 25, 2022 the Saline County Solid Waste Management Committee met and reviewed the five year update to the Solid Waste Management Plan. Committee members voted unanimously (three ayes and zero nays) to recommend approval of the updated plan. The attached change document summarizes changes made to the plan during the five-year review completed in 2022. Chapter Six in the updated Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan discusses the recommendations for the next 10 -year planning cycle. These issues include: 1. Planning for landfill cell closure and post -closure expenses. 2. Continuing the old city dump remediation program as required by KDHE. 3. Implementing an organized recycling collection program in City and County offices. 4. Implementing a City-wide tree pruning operation to permit sanitation and other large commercial trucks to safely access all streets and alleys. 5. Constructing a new sanitation equipment and storage building for the new fully -automated side -load packer trucks. 6. Continuing to monitor landfill gas production at the Salina Municipal Solid Waste Landfill and financially preparing for a landfill gas collection system as necessary. 7. Maintaining a 25 -year capital plan for the Salina Municipal Solid Waste Landfill. This is significant due to the extreme expenses related to new landfill cell construction, landfill engineering, large construction equipment, landfill gas collection, landfill cell closure and post -closure, and other possible regulatory requirements. 8. Continuing to provide reasonable Sanitation and Landfill rates to customers to reduce illegal dumping.

It is the official policy guide for future actions involving the storage, collection, processing, salvage, recycling, and disposal techniques necessary to carry out a planned and integrated solid waste program. The planning period covers ten years, with annual review and public hearings no less frequently than every five years. This plan is developed to meet the intent of federal and state laws and regulations, including KSA 65-3405 and House Bill 2801 requirements for new plans. The last county -wide plan update was adopted and approved by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) on December 6, 2016. Authorization and Legislation Irani i",r'w b Nswn' Figure 1: Saline County Pblerx The City of Salina was designated as the Solid Waste Planning Authority for Saline County in January, 1994 through an Interlocal Agreement between the City of Salina and Saline County, pursuant to KSA 12-2908 and KSA 65-3405(b). A Solid Waste Management Committee was formed in April, 1994 in accordance with this Interlocal Agreement. Public Input and Review Saline County and City of Salina staff welcomes public input regarding the SWMP and comments in general regarding all facets of solid waste management. City staff, members of the Solid Waste Management Committee, and the general public participated in the review and update of this plan. Continuous Improvement As the planning authority for the SWMP, the City of Salina continuously strives to enhance its current programs and develop innovative waste management practices in orderto make certain that environmentally sound and sustainable solid waste management programs are put into practice. Through our programs, such as those offered by our Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) and landfill facilities and supported recycling initiatives, a positive environmental impact is made every day that benefits Salina residents and future generations.

According to the 2020 Census, Saline County's population totaled 54,303 with approximately 86% of that population located within Salina's city limits (46,889). Population growth rates for Saline County and the City of Salina decreased from 2010 to 2020 byabout 1 percent. Other municipalities in Saline County include Assaria, Brookville, Gypsum, New Cambria, and Smolan. Each of these has a population less than 500 persons. Figure 2: Location of Kansas in the U.S. Figure 3: Location of Saline County within Kansas 20 Highways and Roadways Saline County is served by two Interstate Highways: 1-70, east -west; and 1-135, north - south. In addition, several state and U.S. highways traverse the county, supplemented by an extensive system of paved county roads. Each of the municipalities and concentrations of rural population is served by a system of well-maintained hard surface roadways. This system facilitates growth and development, as well as providing infrastructure for the movement of goods, including solid waste services. Regionalization Figure 4: KDOT Map of Saline County Utilizing these highways and roadways, the community has built upon its agricultural roots and diversified into the global economy with concentrations in high-tech manufacturing, an active retail and service sector, finance and insurance, a regional center for advanced medical care, and higher education. As a regional solid waste disposal center, Saline County accepts waste from numerous surrounding counties. The City of Salina, as the operator of the only landfill facility in Saline County, should have the following primary roles: 1) enterprise service provider, in which maximizing revenues is typically the primary goal; 2) recycling advocate and conserver of natural resources, in which recycling and reducing landfill volumes is typically a primary goal; and 3) landfill operator, in which maximizing existing operational resources is typically a primary goal. Land Use As evidenced by the population figures, the vast majority of residential dwelling units in Saline County are located within the Salina city limits. According to the most recent reliable information, the City of Salina contains approximately 16,066 acres of land. Approximately 60% of the acreage within the city limits or 25 square miles is devoted to residential use. Commercial uses account for some 6% of the area, with government and institutional uses occupying another 25%. Industrial uses occupy approximately 600 acres within the city (5%). A significant land use factor in Saline County is the area immediately adjacent to the Salina city limits used for industrial purposes. The extraterritorial area immediately south of Salina contains over 300 acres and several of the major industrial employers of the community. With the exception of the five smaller cities, rural and agricultural pursuits remain the most predominant land use outside the Salina area. Agricultural use consists primarily of pasture and crop land. Some land in the area immediately north, northeast, and northwest of Salina is highly limited in its development potential by risk of flooding. 21 Future Growth and Development As previously mentioned, Saline County and Salina have grown as a regional center for retail trade, banking, health care, and other services. When examining future growth, it is apparent growth and development, based on trends, will be slow overthe course of the next 20 years; likely between 5% and 8% per decade. Growth in basic industrial jobs and manufacturing has been extensive. Based on the diversity of industry and the position held by local firms in their respective industrial fields, continued growth is expected. While some new industries may locate in the area, most growth will occur due to expansion of existing industries. Figure 5: Sample residential properties within Salina and Saline County Modest residential and population growth is expected to follow the regional commercial/service growth patterns and industrial job creation. While, from a pure numbers standpoint, most of the population growth is likely to be in Salina, the trends of both urban and rural growth in residences is likely to continue, but not to a point as to present significant service delivery problems (including solid waste). 2020 Census figures for Saline County show an annual population decline rate of 0.24%, compared to 0.1 %annual decline rate for Salina and 0.74% annual growth for the state. The Salina population growth rate is estimated to be in a range of 0.5% to 1 % per year. Such growth rates are manageable from a service delivery and infrastructure standpoint and should not provide significant unforeseen challenges in planning, including solid waste planning. Planning and Zoning Saline County and the City of Salina have adopted zoning and subdivision regulations. Those regulations treat solid waste facilities as special or conditional uses subject to special approval in zoning districts and based on the specifics of each case. A special class use (Conditional Use Permit) to operate the City of Salina's landfill was approved by the Salina Metropolitan Board of Zoning Appeals in August of 1973. The zoning permit is still valid. The landfill site was annexed into the City on June 4, 1984. 22 Page intentionally left blank. 23 Chapter Three Existing Solid Waste Program Waste Storage Specific storage container requirements are in effect, i.e.: Saline County Code Sec. 9-8.2 – Storage — Standards Generally The following standards are established for the storage of solid waste in the county Multifamily dwellings, mobile home parks, and recreational facilities.

Section Seven (7), Township Fifteen (15), Range Three (3) West of the 6th P.M. in Saline County, Kansas, is hereby established as the solid waste disposal area for the city and shall be considered as the solid waste disposal area as the phrases used in this article. (Code 1966, § 31-81) Figure 12: Salina Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Administrative building, a maintenance facility, an active disposal area, a yard waste site, a tire site and a scrap metal site. The disposal area is surrounded by pastures and crop fields, which are leased to farmers by the City of Salina. With veryfew exceptions, all solid waste generated within Saline County is disposed ofatthe City of Salina Landfill. The Salina Landfill is permitted by the KDHE (Permit #0144). The landfill was originally issued a landfill permit on March 17, 1976. It is located at 4292 South Burma Road, just west of Salina. As of June 2021, life expectancy of the landfill was approximately 180 years (active life). The landfill operates under a KDHE-approved Facility Operations Plan (2016) and a Landfill Master Plan (2012). Figure 13: Salina Municipal Landfill Site Map tw Master Plan The Master Plan, which was adopted by the City Commission in 2012, provides the City with a permitted footprint from which it can select different cell sizes according to ongoing needs from predetermined cells. Further, the cell sizes depicted on the Master Plan drawings may be modified to adjust cell sizes as required by the City to optimize future cell configurations. Additionally, the Master Plan expanded the landfill's total disposal area from 280.1 to 289.69 acres; expanded the total landfill capacity from approximately 12.9M tons to 17.9M tons; expanded disposal airspace from 21AM cubic yards to 29.8M cubic yards; increased maximum disposal elevation from 1,408 feet to 1,540 feet; increased facility life approximately 72.5 years. Existing cell sizes in the Master Plan vary from 7.99 acres to 21.12 acres in size due to site restrictions including total acreage, topography, groundwater flows, and other site characteristics. The City of Salina's landfill engineering consultant analyzed various cell configurations and construction alternatives to achieve the City's stated goal of providing for approximately four to five years of disposal at projected waste acceptance rates. Figure 14: Base Map, Boundary Survey and Master Plan Drawings Since there are a variety of cell options, City staff can select the cell that best meets the City's goals at the time of construction. Important financial considerations include: 1) the amount of revenue generated by the landfill, 2) current waste acceptance rates and the amount of time it takes to fill the cell, 3) available funds for cell construction, 4) the current interest rate, and 5) mobilization expenses. 33 Figure 15: MSW Landfill Locations in Kansas Municipal Solid Waste Landfills According to the KDHE's Bureau of Waste Management, "The Salina landfill is well-designed and constructed, professionally managed, and well operated as a composite -lined Subtitle D landfill. The City's practices consistently conform to state laws and regulations as determined by reviews by KDHE permitting and inspection staff. In summary, the management team of this facility applies sound engineering and management principles to current operations and in planning forthe future. They have been progressive in making improvements at the facility and partnered well with the Bureau of Waste Management in a variety of ways." Figure 16: Landfill Site Location Additionally, in 2014 city staff completed a top -to -bottom review of all landfill policies and procedures, organizational structure, management systems, logistics, personnel and facilities. The annual solid waste disposal average for the last five years is 86,880.97 tons with a per capita disposal average of 4.78 pounds per person, per day. 34 Groundwater Monitoring Groundwater is an extremely important aspect of maintaining KDHE compliance. Groundwater monitoring occurs at the Salina landfill semiannually in May and November each year. The landfill lies near the border of the Great Plains and the Central Lowland. Semiannual groundwater monitoring continues to confirm reasonably consistent groundwater elevations with generally stable VOC concentration trends. The monitoring network consists of 32 monitoring wells, and 7 piezometers. The Liner System The landfill consists of a subgrade and a 2' thick compacted soil layer at a minimum of 7' above groundwater surface, overlain with a flexible membrane liner (FML). In 2016, the City of Salina submitted a minor permit modification request to the KDHE to allow substitution of one foot of compacted soil with a layer of geosynthetic clay liner (GCL). The liner system will be constructed in accordance with the Engineering Design Report, the Construction Quality Assurance Plan, test pad results for the materials used, and industry standards. The liner floor is typically constructed at a minimum slope of 1 percent with side slopes no steeper than 3:1 (H:V.) The soil liner will be constructed in 6" thick lits within required moisture and density requirements and compacted with equipment, such as a sheep's foot compactor. The FML will consist of a 60 -mil high density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane (smooth on cell floor and textured on side -slopes). As phased construction progresses from cell to cell, the liner system of each new cell will be tied into (welded) to the geomembrane from the adjacent cell areas. The Leachate Collection & Drainage System Leachate conveyance for the latest and all future cells, if applicable (beginning at the southern leachate conveyance line) will be gravity flow until it is pumped via force main into the leachate pond. This system is expected to reduce the costs and maintenance associated with force main conveyance lines and pumping systems, and is the recommended approach by the KDHE when it is possible. The leachate drainage system typically consists of 12 inches of sand placed atop the liner system. Depending on test results of the selected material, a double -sided geocomposite drainage layer may be installed under the sand. Figure 17: Landfill Leachate Tanks In accordance with the Salina Municipal Solid Waste Landfill's approved master plan, landfill contractors constructed a 2.8 -acre leachate containment pond for the purpose of storing and evaporating leachate (rainwater that comes into contact with waste). The containment pond and leachate collection system were constructed in conjunction with cell #19 in 2014. The pond replaced two 12,500 -gallon leachate storage tanks that required staff to pump the leachate into a truck and 35 then reapply it onto the waste within the open landfill cells or at an approved disposal site. While this method worked, it required a significant amount of staff time and was an inefficient process. In keeping with best industry practices to improve the leachate pond's evaporative capabilities, landfill staff installed an evaporation system in May of this year. The system utilizes an electric pump to force water through a specially -designed spray head mounted on a floating island. This system reduces the leachate water's molecules to a very fine mist that increases the ponds' overall evaporation rate. The system pumps approximately 350-400 gallons per minute with an expected reduction of 1,000 -gallons per hour on days with 80 -degree temperatures and low humidity. Higher temperatures would further increase this evaporation rate. By correctly sizing and placing the spray island within the pond, staff can better manage the amount of stored leachate and control mist migration (drift), while meeting all Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) regulations. There are no additional odors present around the pond since the system went into operation, primarily due to the very fine mist created by the spray head and the leachate sedimentation process that occurs within the pond. In 2020 staff installed a second spray island to the pump system at a cost of approximately $3,200. This will further improve the evaporative capabilities of the pond, which is especially important during extended periods of heavy rain as experienced in 2019. Cell Overlap onto Pre -Subtitle D Landfill Cell Figure 18: Landfill Evaporation Pond The approved Master Plan enables the expansion of four cells onto 28.51 acres of the old pre - Subtitle D landfill cell. This overlap contributes to additional waste capacity, eliminates wasted space between individually -constructed cells, and improves overall site characteristics for drainage, roadways, and other landfill features. Cover Procedures The tarp system used at the landfill in lieu of daily soil cover is placed across the working face of the open cell at night. When the landfill cell reaches the appropriate grade or elevation, it is covered with approximately 12 inches of soil and planted with an approved vegetative cover. Covering waste in this manner reduces odors; helps control litter, reduces the likelihood of unwanted insects, rodents and other animals; and protects public health. Landfill Gas (LFG) Monitoring Landfill staff members monitor LFG on a monthly basis in accordance with KDHE regulations along its boundaries outside the waste footprint. As part of its Title V permit, the landfill completes five- year Tier II testing for concentrations of non -methane organic compounds (NMOCs) released bythe facility. BIg This testing was last completed on February 23-25,2021 and indicated an NMOC emission rate for 2021 of 17.9 megagrams (MG) per year, which is under the 34 MG/yr. limit. When the facility does eventually reach this limit, it will have one year to submit a design for an active gas collection and control system and an additional 18 months from the system's approval date to complete installation. Landfill Gas (LFG) Collection & Utilization LFG collection and utilization at the Salina Landfill remains elusive. Based on results from the Landfill Gas Utilization Feasibility Study performed by the engineering consultant and representatives from the Environmental Protection Agency's Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP), in January 2011, five potential LFG-to-energy projects were identified for economic analysis. From the data collected, only one option provided technical and economic feasibility: the use of micro -turbines with combined heat and power (CHP). This project showed the potential fora positive rate of return over a 15 -year period. However, an end user for the hot water/steam would need to be located within one mile of the landfill. The only existing potential end users for LFG were Phillips Lighting (now Kubota -Great Plains Manufacturing) and Exide Technologies (now Stryten Manufacturing), which were located 3.6-4.6 miles away; both of which are no longer in business. The large capital cost to develop a landfill gas collection system and the necessary pipeline presently restricts the feasibility of a project at this time. Closure and Post -closure Care Closure and post -closure care provide final cover to and long-term care of closed landfills. This entails updating financial assurance cost analysis to the KDHE for immediate closure and long-term maintenance requirements on an annual basis. Financial assurance provides the necessary funding during and after landfill closure (i.e., closure and post -closure care). The Finance Department sets aside funds ($0.50 a ton) for closure and post -closure care. Landfill Staff Each employee is trained to 1) perform their individual duties efficiently, 2) serve in other positions as necessary, 3) quickly assist landfill customers, and 4) help maintain the landfill in a state of continuous state of compliance with all KDHE regulatory requirements that govern the landfill. Landfill employees use industry -accepted and state -approved operational practices for cell preparation and maintenance. These practices include soil excavation, waste compaction, groundwater protection (run-on and run- off controls), air quality standards, and other regulatory requirements as prescribed in the approved Facility Operations Plan. Since the landfill is open and customers are present during the majority of time employees are on site, landfill workers perform preventive maintenance, vehicle, equipment, and facility repair, litter collection, and other miscellaneous site maintenance activities during slower periods. The following represent the tasks for landfill's three scale house operators and seven equipment operators (this does not include the Landfill Supervisor or Landfill Superintendent). 37 Figure 19: Landfill Operator Task Analysis Process 320.5560.0038 # Process Title Leachate Disposal - leachate flows directly to pond without manpower requirement.

The scraper scrapes and transports intermediate cover material and other soil forthe bulldozer, as necessary, to construct and maintain the landfill and the required cell features. The bulldozer initially spreads the waste on the cell to enable the compactor to further spread and properly compacts it. Additionally, when required, the bulldozer spreads intermediate cover material to help stabilize the compacted waste and prevent unacceptable landfill conditions, such as: excessive wind-blown litter, odors, and vectors. Additionally, the bulldozer pushes soil throughout the landfill site to properly construct cell features, helps build the necessary haul roads to provide haulers access to the open face of the working cell, levels cover materials as required, and helps in the construction and maintenance of run-on and run-off control berms. The compactor compresses (compacts) waste in a deliberate pattern to achieve the required compaction rates to maximize valuable landfill space. When necessary, the compactor can spread waste in addition to compacting it. However, this may create a crisscross pattern of waste with unwanted air voids and loss of airspace when it is compacted, whereas the compactor -bulldozer team working in tandem compacts waste in a systematic and linear manner by moving forward and backward along the same tracks, and then shifting the distance of one wheel width as it continues compacting newly spread waste. The grader helps maintain proper grading throughout the landfill site, helps build haul roads, levels the cover materials, and helps in the construction and maintenance of run-on and run-off control berms. The landfill supervisor is on site and provides directions to operators as necessary, but also regularly functions as an extremely knowledgeable and highly versatile equipment operator. The landfill supervisor often switches from one piece of equipment to another to ensure everything continues running smoothly. Their primary function is to assist operators in managing the landfill's waste disposal operations in accordance with the Facility Operations Plan and all applicable KDHE regulations. Litter Picker, ATVs with Litter Cages, Litter Vacuum Litter collection is an ongoing task at the landfill, especiallywith the numberand degree of high -wind events at the site. In addition to landfill personnel performing this task, staff uses volunteer assistance when it is available. This primarily comes from individuals who've received court - mandated community service and typically accounts for about 120 hours of labor. Additionally, landfill employees use various other vehicles, equipment and hand/powertools to help maintain the landfill in a high state of readiness at all times. 39 Figure 21: Five-year Solid Waste Disposal Tonnage 94,000 92,000 90,000 88,000 86,000 84,000 82,000 80,000 Solid Waste Disposal Tonnage 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Figure 22: Five-year Per Capita Disposal Rate (MSW) Per Capita Waste Disposal ■Saline County ■Kansas 5.395.40 5.22 5.09 4.98 4.44 q,28 4.33 4.33 4.33 Ell Waste Characterization and Recyclables Composition Study Solid Waste at the Cityof Salina Landfill is typical among similar jurisdictions throughout Kansas. A waste characterization and recyclables composition studywas initially completed in November, 2021 and repeated due to data errors in March, 2022 in conjunction with SCS Engineers and with a grant received from KDHE for the recyclables composition portion of the study. The waste characterization study consisted of 50 samples (75 cubic yards) of waste that were being brought to the City of Salina Landfill from residential, commercial, and industrial waste generators. SCS evaluated historical tonnage provided by the cityto establish the total numberof samples to be sorted for each waste generator category. This evaluation determined that approximately 74% of disposed tonnage by residential, and 26% from the commercial and industrial generators. The recyclables composition study consisted of 24 samples (48 cubic yards) of materials that were collected from the SDRC over a three day period. During the three day collection period customers did not have typically unaccepted materials returned to them for proper disposal. This allowed the samples collected to be an accurate representation of what customers bring to the SDRC.

Numerous existing storage and salvage yards provide adequate capacityto manage these wastes. Agricultural Wastes Saline County has a large agricultural base. Significant quantities of waste are naturally produced by every sector of agriculture, including crop residue and spoilage. All indications are this waste is being managed at its generation point. Since best management practices (BMPs) for the agriculture sector call for use of wastes as soil supplements, the management of those wastes does not present special handling or disposal concerns. Obviously, concerns over preserving environmental quality exist. County government is the primary entity for education and assistance in protecting the rural environment. Dead Animals Saline County appears to generate what would be considered a "normal" number of dead animals. A regional byproducts firm accepts large, dead animals for processing. Household animals are generally disposed of by incineration at the Salina Animal Shelter or are appropriately buried on private property. Industrial Waste The City of Salina Landfill accepts various types of industrial waste. Industrial solid waste is defined in Kansas Office of Reviser of Statutes 65-3402 (x), as "all solid waste resulting from manufacturing, commercial and industrial processes which is not suitable for discharge to a sanitary sewer or treatment in a community sewage treatment plant or is not beneficially used in a manner that meets the definition of recyclables. Industrial waste includes, but is not limited to: Mining wastes from extraction, beneficiation and processing of ores and minerals unless those minerals are returned to the mine site; fly ash, bottom ash, slag and flue gas emission wastes generated primarily from the combustion of coal or other fossil fuels; cement kiln dust; waste oil and sludge's; waste oil filters; and fluorescent lamps. The disposal of industrial solid wastes is regulated by K.A.R. 28-29-108 (r [12 & 13]). The owner must maintain a log of commercial or industrial solid wastes received. This log shall indicate the source and quantity of waste and the disposal location. Sludge's, industrial solid wastes, or special wastes shall not be disposed of in a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Facility (MSW LF) until the KDHE has been notified, and they have issued a disposal authorization including specific arrangements for handling of the waste. In Saline County, all industrial waste collection is performed by private solid waste haulers. Most of the waste generated in Saline County is disposed of at the City of Salina Landfill. Some industrial wastes generated here are transported to locations within the state and outside of Kansas. In addition, there are private companies that provide recycling services for industrial and commercial operations to manage their solvents, paints, and various special wastes. 45 Industrial waste currently disposed of within the landfill that requires a special waste permit is given a state authorization number approving it for special handling by landfill personnel. The data is recorded at the time of disposal and includes information on the generator, hauler, amount, date of disposal, and the GPS disposal location. Landfill personnel then directthe haulerto the working face where the industrial waste is immediately buried. Examples of typical industrial special waste include: asbestos, contaminated soils, dried sludges, metal dust, food additives and flour processing byproducts, industrial manufacturing glass, personal protective equipment, blasting media, waste alumina, and disposable lab ware. In the case of fuel -contaminated soils, landfill personnel conduct aeration bywindrowing the soil and turning it over periodically to eliminate volatile hydrocarbons. Once this process has been completed, the soil may be used as cover material. Lead Acid Batteries Automobile batteries are accepted for recycling at various locations within the County. Automotive businesses typically have exchange deals with battery manufacturers whereby new batteries are received and old cores are collected for removal. No apparent disposal problems exist. Lithium -ion, NiCD, and Other Rechargeable Batteries Lithium -ion, NiCD, and other rechargeable batteries are accepted at the HHW for proper disposal. Cellphones, laptops, rechargeable power tools, vape cartages and other rechargeable devices utilize these types of batteries. If damaged these batteries are capable bursting, exploding, and can lead to dangerous fires. Medical Waste Medical wastes are "those solid waste materials that are potentially capable of causing disease or injury and which are generated in connection with human or animal care through inpatient and outpatient services." K.A.R. 28-29-27. Medical waste has been regulated by RCRA, Subtitle J, since 1988. Kansas statutes and regulations also specifically deal with the special hazards posed by medical waste. Medical waste must be isolated from other solid wastes and requires separate handling if sent to a transfer station. Disposal of medical waste at a MSWLF requires a special waste permit from the KDHE for doing so in a manner that will not pose a risk to the health and safety of the public or environment. In Saline County, medical waste is collected by haulers in red -colored plastic bags with "Bio -Hazard" labeling for quick identification by solid waste handlers who send these bags to the landfill. Some doctors, medical clinics, dentist offices, veterinarians, and the hospital generate waste that poses no health or safety hazard. These are disposed of by inclusion with regular solid waste in accordance with Federal and State regulations. At the City of Salina Landfill, private haulers bring medical waste into the facility in red bags. Landfill personnel record the company that is transporting the waste, the location where this material was generated, and the weight or number of bags brought in. A GPS location is established and recorded for all red bags brought to the facility. Landfill personnel direct the hauler to the working face where the medical waste is immediately buried. 46 City of Salina provides six (6) "Sharps" collection locations for Saline County residents. Sharps collection containers are located at the SDRC, Sherriffs Office, Entry to Detention Center, Fire Stations 2, 3 and 4. Pathological Waste The local hospital, some veterinary clinics, and the Saline County Animal Shelter incinerate pathological waste. Pesticides and Pesticide Containers Because of a relatively large agricultural community, the use of some pesticides is expected. BMPs are recommended and known. Due to the expense of chemicals and the use of these BMPs, it is not expected that excess quantities exist. If empty containers are triple -rinsed, they may be handled with the regular waste stream. Wastewater Bio -solids The Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) treatment includes preliminary screening with grit removal, primary clarification, activated sludge and ultraviolet disinfection. The WWTP has the capability to treat 7.25 million gallons per day (mgd) of raw wastewater and currently treats approximately 3.67 mgd. Total wastewater treated in 2021 was 1.34 billion gallons. A total of 1,967 tons of bio -solids (beneficial byproduct of wastewater treatment) were produced and applied to area farmland for beneficial use. The wastewater generated by the City is treated to standards specified by the KDHE and discharged to the Smoky Hill River. A total of 11 industrial users are permitted and monitored to ensure discharge water meets the City's industrial pretreatment requirements. Water Treatment Sludge The Downtown Water Treatment Plant (WTP) treatment includes settling, softening, filtration and disinfection. The WTP has the capability to treat 20 mgd of raw water, ten mgd from the Smoky Hill River and ten mgd from the downtown well field (15 wells). The Downtown WTP currently treats approximately five mgd in the winter and up to ten mgd in the summer. Total water treated in 2021 was 1.6 billion gallons, which included 0.80 billion gallons from the Smoky Hill River and 0.80 billion gallons from the Downtown Well Field. The water is chemically treated to meet or exceed standards of the KDHE and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The South Water Treatment Plant (WTP) treatment includes settling, softening, filtering, and disinfection. The South WTP has the capacity to treat 3.50 mgd of raw water from four wells. The South WTP went into operation in the spring of 2021. It is anticipated that the South WTP will treat 2.25 mgd. Compliance with those standards is assured by extensive testing in both the plant and throughout the complete water distribution system. Sludge results from the precipitation of solids from the treatment of raw water with alum polymer lime and soda ash softening agents. The water plant disposes of these solids in evaporation ponds. 47 Categories of Waste - Diversion E -Waste Each year, city staff holds an electronic waste collection event that is free for citizens to dispose of most unwanted electric and electronic items. There are no limitations regarding who may participate or the number of items that may be recycled at this event. Nearly any device with a cord or battery is accepted. The list of items that is accepted has expanded to now include kitchen appliances and window air conditioners. However, smoke detectors, light bulbs, fluorescent tubes, tapes, CDs, DVDs, alkaline batteries, PCB ballasts, software, toner cartridges, thermometers, thermostats and hazardous materials are not accepted. In 2020, the annual E -Waste event was canceled due to COVID-19. The 2022 E -Waste event was held Saturday, May 14, 2022 Figure 27:2021 E -Waste Diversion Event E -Waste Event Saturday, May 1, 2021M C 1 EU Figure 28: Five-year E -Waste Collected Tonnage E -Waste Collected (tons) 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 0 2017 2018 2019 2020' 2021 *No events held in 2020 due to COVID-19 Figure 29: Five-year Number of E -Waste Event Participants Number of E -Waste Event Participants 600 500 400 300 200 100000 0 2017 2018 2019 2020* 2021 *No events held in 2020 due to COVID-19 Figure 30: Five-year CRTs Collected 250 200 150 100 so Number of CRTs Collected 2017 2018 2019 2020* 2021 *No events held in 2020 due to COVID-19 Figure 31: 2022 E -Waste Event Flier D[UYULt tUH IKt1 Computer toren.

Figure 32: City of Salina Household Hazardous Waste Facility HHW facility provides a The HHW facility inspects, packages and processes residential waste for disposal or reuse. HHW staff also provides educational materials to the public at schools and other local events. The facility relies on voluntary participation of citizens. Staff consists of one certified HHW coordinator and occasional assistance from sanitation employees. Many products used in our homes contain the same ingredients as industrial waste, yet are exempt from disposal regulation. Leftover products or those unused for over a year are unlikely ever to be used, yet the risk of spills or accidental poisoning of children or pets increases the longer the product remains in the home. The means for citizens to drop off these hazardous products at no charge. HHW is waste generated in the home that may be harmful to human health or the environment. These wastes may contain ingredients that are flammable, toxic, corrosive or reactive. Labels on products that have words like Danger, Toxic or Flammable contain hazardous waste. Some of the most common HHW products are pesticides, paints and varnishes, paint strippers, automotive fluids, gasoline, drain openers and batteries. The same qualities that make HHW dangerous to humans make them dangerous to our pets and the environment. These products should not be thrown in the trash or poured down the drain.

To empty a cylinder, attach it to a compatible appliance and release the remaining gas. The Salina HHW Facility accepts propane tanks under 2.5 pounds. • Sharps — Saline county residents may dispose of sharps at any of the following six (6) "Sharps" collection locations. Sharps collection containers are located at the SDRC, Sherriffs Office, Entry to Detention Center, Fire Stations 2, 3 and 4. Sharps must be in a puncture proof sealed container. Landfill staff collect the sharps and dispose of them in the city of Salina landfill. 53 • Smoke Detectors –Smoke detectors contain a small amount of radioactive material. Many smoke alarm manufacturers offer mail -in disposal programs. • Used Motor Oil – Various locations in Saline County accept used motor oil, including the city's HHW facility. Additionally, some public (city Landfill and Central Garage) and private facilities burn a percentage of this oil in furnaces as an alternative fuel source. Typically, these facilities have unused oil picked up by various collection companies. No apparent problems exist. • Used Tires –In Saline County, tires are collected and disposed at various dealers or they are brought to the landfill. Tires are accepted at the landfill for a separate user fee. They are separated from the waste stream and ultimately disposed by contract for monofilling. Residential Recycling After Images Recycling closed to the public in December 2017, the city came up with a solution to the lack of public recycling options by leasing and later purchasing in July, 2021 a 5,950 square foot steel building with 14 foot tall doors at 125 West North Street, Salina that would become the Salina Drive-thru Recycling Center (SDRC). In June 2021 an independent company, Recyclops, started operations in the city offering subscribers' bi-weekly curbside recycling starting at $10.00 per month. Salina Drive-Thru Recycling Center (SDRC) The SDRC opened in July 2018 and introduced the city's solution to the recycling demand that had been identified after Images had closed. The SDRC is funded by a monthly $1.25 fee that is applied to citizens' water bills. The City Commission has approved an increase to $1.30 per month beginning in 2023. The SDRC is a section within the Sanitation workgroup with a staff consisting of two full-time employees knowledgeable in refuse and recycling collection. This means that the recycling process can continue when one employee drives material to the Material Recovery Facility (MRF) for processing. 54 Figure 36 SDRC Building Layout .0 r-1 C C: C E NIP The 14 foot tall doors enable residents and small businesses to drive their vehicle directly into the building, park at the designated spot near the designated recycling packer truck, shut off their engine, and remain inside their vehicle while waiting for the thumbs -up signal from staff to exit the building. This method helps ensure recyclables do not have to be stockpiled, sorted, or otherwise needlessly handled throughout the short process. Staff quickly scan the material for unacceptable items, if found, return those items to the customer for formal disposal. Staff return containers that customers plan to reuse. If staff notice products such as cardboard boxes, decorative glass bottles, or newspapers, and deem that they could be reused by another patron, they are placed on the reuse selves located in the waiting area for patrons to take at no charge.

A simple web search indicates numerous such private businesses within or near Salina and Saline County. Figure 43: Scrap Metal Facilities The landfill also accepts white goods for disposal if the appliance does not use Freon or carries certification that the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs/Freon) have been properly evacuated. The landfill transports and sells collected white metals to local scrap yard offering the highest metal salvage price. No white goods are deliberately buried in the landfill.

Yard Waste Diversion The City allows residents to drop off yard waste (trees and branches) directly to the landfill without cost. Commercial tree service companies must pay a tonnage rate based on one-half of the current landfill tipping fee. Residential or commercial customers with loads of yard waste mixed with refuse must pay the full tipping fee. Figure 45: Limb Area (Landfill) LIMBS ONLY NO LUMBER NO GRASS Figure 46: Limb Area (Landfill) Acceptable materials include limbs, brush, logs, and stumps. Unacceptable materials include sod, dirt, rock, animal waste, lumber, food waste, refuse, grass, and leaves. City staff is considering the purchase of a grinder to process this limb debris into usable wood chips for the landfill, subject to City Commission approval. 59 The City of Salina mulches all grass clippings from its parks, ball fields, and golf courses. No city department -generated recyclable yard waste is placed in the landfill. The Parks Department uses a chipper for wood waste from tree trimming and removal, this includes the trees collected from the annual Christmas tree drop-off recycling locations. Wood chips are reused throughout the park system. The Streets Department also does an annual loose leaf pick-up from November -December, going down all of the streets in Salina with a leaf vacuum truck to collect the leaves. In 2021, the collected leaves were brought to the "old dump" and spread to create cover for the site. As part of the City Commission approved 2021 Annual Solid Waste Management Plan, City-wide tree pruning will be implemented in upcoming years. The recommended plan for managing tree issues provides an operationally lean program that enables a priority -zoned approach to manage tree limbs in the right-of-way (ROW) in accordance with City code. The City-wide tree pruning will require a two person crew, along with two new pieces of equipment; a one -ton boom truck, and a wood chipper with mulch box. A tree trimming schedule will be created that will benefit not only the Public Works Department, but also the Parks and Recreation Department. The new crew will split their time between both departments. The goal of this tree -pruning is to minimize public disturbance by working in the ROW while being able to place cut limbs in the chipper -box for disposal.

The Solid Waste Management Committee is designed to review, recommend, and implementthe waste management plan at local and county levels. It has thirteen adult members, plus two Youth on Board members. Officers consist of a chair and vice -chair. History The original Solid Waste Management Committee was appointed in 1994 as an ad hoc committee to assist in the development of the SWMP. With the plan completion, a Solid Waste Management Committee was designated as a standing committee with duties and responsibilities in accordance with state law and regulation. Since the City of Salina is the designated planning agency, it provides staffing and administrative support. Annual Plan Review The Solid Waste Management Committee will review the SWMP on an annual basis, in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 65-3405. Any changes to the plan will be recommended by the Solid Waste Management Committee, approved by the Salina City Commission, and sent to the Bureau of Waste Management (BW M), KDHE for approval and acceptance as part of the Salina/Saline County plan. Comprehensive Five-year Review The Solid Waste Management Committee will review the County SWMP every 5 years, in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 65-3405. The Committee will provide a 10 -year timeline, which addresses planning issues 10 years into the future. Any changes to the plan will be recommended by the Solid Waste Management Committee, approved by the Salina City Commission, and sent to the BWM, KDHE for approval and acceptance as part of the Saline County plan. El Meeting Schedule The Solid Waste Management Committee meets three to four times annually (typically in January, August and December). The Youth on Boards program allows for individuals between the ages of 15-20 attending a secondary or post -secondary school to serve on certain boards. January Meeting The Committee reviews year-end solid waste statistics; prepares the City's annual report; discusses current -year programs and makes recommendations; identifies SWMP changes; recommends possible budget items to consider. August Meeting The Committee reviews first semi-annual statistics; reviews the status of the SW MP; discusses and makes recommendations regarding ongoing projects, programs and special reports. December Meeting The Committee sets annual goals; elects officers for the upcoming year; discusses and makes recommendations regarding ongoing projects, programs and special reports. Periodic Meeting Additionally, the Solid Waste Management Committee meets in special sessions, as needed, to review specific solid waste management issues or programs as they arise throughout the year. Terms of Appointment Terms for all members shall be for a period of three years. Committee members may serve for up to three full consecutive terms. Qualifying for reappointment requires one year after expiration of the preceding consecutive terms. Membership • Five residents within the city (representing the City of the 1st class) • One resident of the unincorporated area of the County (nominated by the County, appointed by the Mayor) • One resident of any of the cities of the 3rd class located within the County (Assaria, Brookville, Gypsum, New Cambria and Smolan - nominated by a majority of mayors of those cities and appointed by the Mayor) • Six residents of the County at -large (four nominated by the City and two nominated by the County and all appointed by the Mayor) • Two Youth on Board members 65 Figure 52: Solid Waste Management Committee Member List as of August 2022 . .•ember Number Name Position Expiration Date 1 Phil Black City (First Class) 8/31/2022 2 Open Position City (First Class) N/A 3 Garrett Morris City (First Class) 8/31/2023 4 Open Position City (First Class) N/A 5 Open Position City (First Class) N/A 6 David Driscoll County At -Large (City) 8/31/2022 7 Open Position County At -Large (City) N/A 8 Heidi Black County At -Large (City) 2/15/2025 9 Open Position County At -Large (City) N/A 10 Tom Bell County At -Large (County) 8/31/2024 11 Open Position County At -Large (County) N/A 12 Open Position Unincorporated (County) N/A 13 Open Position City (Third Class) N/A 14 Open Position Youth Member N/A 15 Open Position Youth Member N/A Solid Waste Management Program Goal To develop and maintain a comprehensive solid waste management plan, which 1) promotes public health and safety, 2) preserves and protects the environment and natural resources and 3) recommends and supports cost-effective industry best practices for storing, collecting, transporting, processing and disposing of solid wastes within Saline County. Solid Waste Management Program Objective The Solid Waste Management Committee encourages the efficient operation of the landfill by recommending to City staff ways to increase diversion, recycling, and reuse of solid waste. Therefore, the primary objective of this plan is to minimize landfill use within or by Saline County through the adoption and consistent use of sound management practices and public education including, but not limited to the following: • Implementing industry best practices in solid waste storage, collection, transportation, processing and disposal • Recycling of cardboard, paper, plastics and other household materials • Offering appropriate household products for reuse to the public when applicable • Mulching/composting grass & other yard waste in lieu of landfill disposal • Diverting e -waste, scrap metals and other products from the waste stream • Targeting advertisements to customers for specific solid waste services • Promoting ideas for recycling/reuse events throughout the community • Helping identify educational opportunities, especially for high volume waste • Suggesting topics and information for brochures, water bill inserts, radio spots, Access TV, and other public outreach efforts This plan provides an integrated solid waste management system, given the unique characteristics of the County. This system takes into account existing programs, cost effectiveness, safety and environmental issues (short and long term), citizen satisfaction, regional issues, and consistent public policy. This system meets or exceeds all applicable federal and state laws, regulations and standards. To optimize the system, the Solid Waste Management Committee understands additional sources of solid waste from other counties should continue to be considered. Careful consideration is required to determine that optimization is achieved without incurring additional expenses for the services offered to the public. This plan takes into consideration all aspects of solid waste collection, disposal, and recycling. 2022 Solid Waste Management Committee Goals 1. Identify and recommend topics for public education/community outreach to reduce the amount of waste in Salina/Saline County. 2. Identify and recommend ways to inform the public about and fill vacancies on the Saline County Solid Waste Management Committee. 3. Review the 10 -year planning horizon for the Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan and make recommendations to staff. 4. Identify ways to attain zero waste by 2050, defining zero waste as a philosophy that not only promotes re -use, recycling, and conservation programs, but also, and more importantly, emphasizes sustainability by considering the entire life -cycle of products, processes, and systems. a. Establish a stakeholder group led by an outside organization to promote "zero waste" in the community. 1*b Chapter Five Evaluation of Current System Waste Storage Figure 53: Schaefer 96 Gallon Waste Cart Waste Collection The current system utilizes refuse carts supporting a fully -automated collection system on four of the five collection routes and utilizing a semi -automated truck with two runners for the fifth 'alley' route. When the city transitioned to fully -automated collection in July 2021, all customers received a black, 96 gallon, Schaefer waste cart. Customers have the option to request additional 96 gallon waste carts for an additional fee of $2.00 per month per additional cart. The price of the additional waste carts was kept low to compensate for automated waste collection not being able to collect waste that is set outside of the carts, which had previously been permitted with the semi -automated system. All routes including the fifth'alley' route are held to the same guidelines. Storage policies in rural areas and smaller cities, as well as for commercial/industrial use seem to meet the needs for aesthetics, health, and nuisance minimization. The collection systems throughout Saline County are based on establishing competition and maximizing customer choice. Competition does exist in residential, commercial, and industrial collection. That competition serves to keep rates reasonable and customer service levels high. The City of Salina's Sanitation work group provides residential refuse service and serves as a safeguard to make a private monopoly unlikely. A monopoly with only one service provider may lead to substantially higher residential rates and promote a decline in service. A city franchise orcontract system with one hauler could lead to similar problems. One particular deficiency of the current system is operational inefficiency; e.g. when various households on one city block have different refuse haulers, multiple trash trucks are required forthe same street, each with employees picking up refuse from select residences. Additionally, multiple truck traffic decreases the operational life of City and County streets; e.g. one trash truck is equivalent to approximately 5,500 automobiles. Waste Diversion In recent years a trend has emerged of states, counties and cities developing recycling rate goals. Establishing recycling goals enables the county to develop direction and strategies for a successful recycling program. Currentlywithin the City, waste diversion consists of: household recycling collected atthe SDRC, E - waste collected by HHW and Traffic Control; HHW materials; scrap metal collected by Central Garage, Landfill, Parks and Recreation, Streets, and Traffic Control. Yard waste is collected by the Landfill, Parks and Recreation and Sanitation. 68 This report reflects recent efforts by city staff and members of the Solid Waste Management Committee to contact local businesses to request they share recycling data for this report to help create a more accurate picture. Not all private businesses wish to share this information; however, using the data from those that are willing to provide this information, staff was able to formulate very conservative estimates for those who didn't participate. This data suggests a recycling rate of approximately 43 percent. We expect this figure to grow as more businesses become willing to provide this information. The Solid Waste Management Committee is tasked with trying to reach out to various businesses to help add to and refine this information over time. Detailed information concerning this rate is found in figures 55-58 below. Figure 54: City of Salina Sanitation Semi -Automated (left) and Fully -Automated Trucks (right) P - Waste Disposal HHW - The current HHW system is efficient, convenient, and environmentally effective. Public education and information is an integral component of the HHW management system. Industrial Waste - The current system of industrial waste disposal is satisfactory. Landfill - The City of Salina Landfill is well -located, efficiently operated, cost-effective, and environmentally sound for solid waste disposal. No other active landfills exist within the County. Trucking waste to other counties would be more costly and less environmentally sound. Landfill tipping fees remain reasonable when compared with other areas in Kansas and across the nation. Medical Waste - The current system of medical waste disposal is satisfactory. Saline county residents may dispose of sharps at any of the following six (6) "Sharps" collection locations. Sharps collection containers are located at the SDRC, Sherriffs Office, Entry to Detention Center, Fire Stations 2, 3 and 4. Sharps must be in a puncture proof sealed container. Landfill staff collect the sharps and dispose of them in the city of Salina landfill. Recycling - The current system, which consists of the SDRC, HHW and private sector recycling, including Recyclops, removes some recyclable materials from the waste stream. Recycled/reused items include: • Aerosols • Aluminum • Appliances • Batteries • Books • Corrugated Cardboard • Electronic Waste • Food Waste • Glass Containers • Magazines • Miscellaneous Metals • Newspaper • Paper • Paint • Plastics • Printer Cartridges • Steel • Tires • Vehicles • Yard/Tree Waste No system currently exists for coordinating and reporting recycling data county -wide, and the county currently does not have a large scale recycling program for residential waste. White Goods -The current system is effective in ensuring that white goods/large appliances are not disposed of in the landfill, but are ultimately made available for either reuse or metals recycling. The availability of private business drop-off or trade-in points and drop-off disposal ata separate site at the landfill presents satisfactory alternatives for individual households. Yard Waste - In 2022 the city is contracting SCS Engineers to conduct a Composting Feasibility Study. Based on the recommendations set by the results of the studythe city may move forward with a public composting site. Wastewater Bio -solids - The current system of agricultural disposal is satisfactory. Used Tires - The landfill and private companies contract for tire disposal by firms that process, incinerate, or monofill. No used tires are knowingly disposed of in the landfill in Saline County. No substantial illegal tire disposal sites are known to exist in Saline County. Some miscellaneous, private, and small-scale tire stockpiles may exist. Occasional roadside dumping remains a concem.

General Policy The overall solid waste system currently in place in Saline County is effective. City and County officials ensure all State and National laws are followed to protect public health and natural resources. They also work to ensure all services are provided in accordance to City and County codes. Several key components of the solid waste management system are • The City of Salina continues to serve as the lead agency for solid waste management in Saline County. The City owns and operates the existing landfill and HHW facility. The City has the largest residential sanitation collection operation and has adequate professional staff and resources available to effectively manage the system. • The combined public/private nature of the system continues to serve Saline County well. Private services are complementary to local government services in essential areas. The operation of a landfill is an essential component and should continue to be locally owned and operated by the City of Salina. Similarly, local government can provide a baseline of residential collection, while still allowing private businesses to offer residential collection services. The enhanced competition provides public safeguards and benefits. • The opportunity exists to expand recycling collection while identifying a new recycling processor. A limited curbside recycling service is provided by the private sector could be expanded, which would increase the County's overall recycling/diversion rate. • The processing of recyclables and the collection of commercial and industrial waste should continue to be provided by the private sector. City of Salina staff seeks to help create conditions that enable the public sector to thrive. • The Solid Waste Management Committee serves as the advisory board to City staff regarding long-term planning and goal identification for solid waste. 72 System Analysis (Issue, Discussion & Recommendation) Storage Issue 1: Cell Closure/Post Closure Discussion: Calculation of complete landfill closure and post -closures costs is annually required by KDHE. The KDHE verifies the financial assurance of the landfill operator to properly close and care for the closed cells for the required duration. Recommendation: Complete landfill closure is very unlikely in the next twenty-five (25) years. The current estimate for Closure/Post closure costs is in excess of $8 million, with just $867,717.00 held in reserve for this purpose. Supplementing the reserve balance and/or partial closure of completed cells should be considered in the next ten (10) year plan. Issue 2: Old City Dump Remediation Discussion: The City has one remaining old landfill that KDHE has instructed the City to perform remediation work to provide adequate cover material over the old site. The city is out of compliance until this has been accomplished. Recommendation: The City had a plan to utilize dredged material from the Smoky Hill River project to provide the necessary cover material for the old dump; however, with delays in development of the river project, the City is now considering alternate methods of acquiring the necessary cover materials to accomplish this task and obtain KDHE approval. The City has dedicated funding forthe purchase of soils in 2023-2024. This item must remain a priority for the City. Issue 3: City -County Facility Containers Discussion: Currently City and County offices do not have an organized recycling collection program. It is a goal for these government offices to lead by example and establish recycling programs in their respective offices. Recommendation: Consider using Solid Waste Funds to purchase recycling containers for City and County offices to provide an incentive to getting these recycling programs started. 73 Collection Issue 4: City-wide ROW Tree Pruning Discussion: In the next ten (10) year planning cycle, it is anticipated that the City-wide right-of-way (ROW) tree canopy will require significant pruning to permit sanitation and other large commercial trucks to safely access all streets and alleys. Recommendation: Supplement two existing Park Technicians with two new Park Technician positions to be funded from Public Works (One full time employee will be transferred from an existing vacant Worker/Driver position and one full time employee will be funded from the Solid Waste Fund balance). Purchase a new-boom/bucket truck, a new chipper/chipper box and additional tools, equipment and supplies from the Solid Waste Fund balance to safely and efficiently prune all trees City-wide on a five-year basis. This four -person crew would respond to inclement weather emergencies and split its duties between Public Works/Sanitation and Parks R Forestryon a 60% - 40% basis respectively. Issue 5: Truck Storage Discussion: The City purchases six (6) new automated side -load packer (ASL) trucks that are approximately one (1) foot taller than the previous semi -automated trucks. Currently, these trucks are parked outside within the General Services campus and have a seven (7) year life expectancy. Recommendation: Construct a new eight (8) bay temperature -controlled truck storage building that includes a maintenance/service bay and wash bay. This will allow operators and mechanics to provide improved maintenance and services on the trucks, protection from inclement weather and enable staff to possibly extend the life of the trucks for one or more years beyond normal anticipated life expectancy. Issue 6: LFG Collection Discussion: Landfill gas is monitored everyfive (5) years. EPA thresholds for required collection of landfill gas were lowered in 2021. Recommendation: Continue to monitor LFG as required, meeting the threshold for collection in the next cycle (2026) is unlikely, but it is possible the landfill gas emissions may exceed the limits by 2031 or 2036. Recommend the landfill capital expenditures twenty-five (25) year plan include possible LFG collection costs beginning 2031. 74 Disposal Issue 7: Twenty-five (25) year Capital Plan Discussion: The City recently developed a twenty-five (25) year Capital Plan for major landfill expenditures to assist in the forecasting of major expenses and revenues. Recommendations: The twenty-five (25) year landfill capital expenditure model should be updated annually and utilized in the planning of major capital expenditures and the establishment of appropriate landfill fees. Issue 8: Illegal Dumping, Littering, and Accumulation of Waste Discussion: Illegal dumping and littering has a costly impact to the community. Recommendations: Establishing and maintaining reasonable sanitation and landfill rates helps reduce illegal dumping and littering. However, increased public education and awareness is necessary to make this item a community wide commitment. The City's Environmental Education and Enforcement Coordinator should be actively involved in public education efforts. Issue 9: Waste Reduction Strategy Discussion: The Solid Waste Management Committee recommended a goal be added to the 2021 SW MP that calls for zero waste by 2050. The Salina City Commission affirmed that recommendation with the addition of the following language: defining zero waste as a philosophy that not only promotes reuse, recycling, and conservation programs, but also, and more importantly, emphasizes sustainability by considering the entire life -cycle of products, processes, and systems. Recommendations: Utilize data from the waste characterization study and other best practices being used by other communities to develop meaningful and measurable waste reduction strategies to be utilized in Saline County. Staff has begun working with the private sector on the Zero Waste initiative and will continue these efforts. 75 Diversion Issue 10: Composting Facility Discussion: The City discontinued separate yard waste collection in 2018. At that time, City leadership and many citizens expressed a strong desire to establish a citywide composting site. Recommendations: City staff have added a composting feasibility study to the 2022 task list for the landfill consultant contract. Completion of the study and implementation of recommendation should remain a priority. Issue 11: E -waste Recycling Discussion: The City has held a single annual eventforthe collection of a -waste forthe past several years. The community generates much more a -waste than is currently being collected. Recommendations: The City should consider options to expand the collection of a -waste during the next ten (10) year planning period. This may require acquisition of additional storage for more routine collection of a -waste and/or holding multiple events per year Issue 12: Additional Separation of Recyclables Discussion: The City has a single collection point for single stream recyclables. Data from the recent waste characterization study may indicate there are recyclable materials present in the waste stream that may be worth separate collection efforts/locations. Recommendations: Analyze data and develop strategies for improved collection of specific recyclable materials (glass, cardboard, aluminum, etc.) 76 Page intentionally left blank. 77 Chapter Seven Financing The current method of financing the solid waste management system in Saline County is through the use of user fees. No City of Salina or Saline County taxes are used for solid waste programs. Commercial, industrial and residential collection, whether by public or private operations, is fee- based. Beyond the costs of collection, the primary funding source for public sector operations in solid waste management is the tipping fee at the landfill. Programs funded through these user fees include: • Solid waste landfill planning, construction and operation • Public education programs • Pilot programs for waste diversion/reduction • White goods diversion • Used tires diversion • HHW facility and programs Salina City Code Sec. 34-85. Service fees. (a) The city shall from time to time, by resolution, establish fees for the use of the solid waste disposal area and the fees shall become effective upon publication of the resolution establishing fees in the official city paper. (b) The board of commissioners may temporarily suspend or waive the collection of the service fees established by the city for the use of the solid waste disposal area. (Code 1966, §§ 31-85, 31-86; Ord. No. 02-10107, § 4,11-4-02) In 2022, the landfill tipping fee is $42.00 per ton covering the full cost of the facility, including operations, capital replacement, capital depreciation, and the cost of opening and closing cells as required. One dollar per ton is designated to support waste management, reduction, and diversion programs. An additional fifty cents per ton goes to support future landfill closure and post -closure operations. The use of landfill tipping fees instead of property taxes or other similar financing mechanisms continues to be equitable and effective. These fees should be used to leverage private investments and available grant funds when possible in order to better meet the goals of this plan. Planning for solid waste management must also recognize that landfill tonnage charges are ultimately paid by residents and businesses. A balance must be maintained between investing in long-term beneficial programs and maintaining a fiscally sound system with reasonable costs. Landfill tipping fees in Saline County currently compare favorably to those of similar systems in other communities. Efforts should be made to continue to meet goals while keeping fees in line with comparable communities. W Funding for the SDRC is produced from a $1.25 monthly charge that is included in all of the City of Salina's water customers' monthly statements. The city currently has approximately 20,300 water customers that are billed monthly. Salina -Saline County agreement regarding Mitigating Impacts of Solid Waste Landfill in Saline County and Addressing Annexation and Maintenance of Roads, effective January 112019 Annual payments and adjustments to Saline County for mitigation of landfill traffic impacts on Saline County roads are calculated based on Section A.2 of the agreement date January 1, 2019. These annual payments are made from the Solid Waste Fund. 2022: The adjustment factor for 2022 was +5.64%. This adjustment factor yields a net increase of $10,469.94. The Impact fee for 2022 was the 2021 impact fee ($185,637.22) plus the annual adjustment for constructions costs as specified in the contract of $10,469.94 for a grand total of $196,107.16. 2023: The adjustment factor for 2023 will be +3.91 %. This adjustment factor yields a net increase of $7,667.79. The Impact fee for 2023 will be the 2022 impact fee ($196,107.16) plus the annual adjustment for constructions costs as specified in the contract of $7,667.79 for a grand total of $203,774.95. These adjustment factors were calculated using the three year rolling average (from the "2nd quarter to the 2nd quarter" -interpreted to be from the 2nd quarter, or starting with the third quarter to run through and include the following 2nd quarter index) of the National Highway Construction Cost index (NHCCI) as published by U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. 79 Figure 59: 2022 Comprehensive Fee Schedule for Sanitation and Landfill SAUNA DRIVE-THRU RECYCLING ARTICLE Vlll: PUBLIC WORKS 4/12020 Resolution No. 20-7808 DESCRIPTION AMOUNT UNIT EFF.

Unlike many communities who are dealing with landfill closures, siting a new landfill, or actually beginning a solid waste system, the challenges presented to this County are "system enhancements". Various enhancements and improvements are outlined within this SW MP. If the plan is to be effective, it must be considered a flexible and"living" document, notjust placed on the shelf or simply filed with the state government to meet its requirements. The plan should be formally reviewed annually, with changes made as required. The 5 -year review should be a major reevaluation of goals and facts, with significant plan adjustments if needed. The 5 -year review should involve significant status reporting to the community, with public involvement in the review, including, but not limited to the required public hearing. In addition to the plan, there should be developed regular action plans to ensure implementation of strategies and progress toward goals. The Solid Waste Management Committee should be involved in the development of action plans and receive reports on the status of all areas of SW MP. All segments of the Saline County community will need to actively take their share of the responsibility if any optimal solid waste system is to be achieved, meeting the currently established, and future goals. Salina City Government The City of Salina will continue to take lead agency responsibility as the designated planning agency and a major provider of solid waste services, e.g. landfill and HHW. By far, the majority of action plan items and responsibilities will be required of the City of Salina. In addition, it will be responsible for specific solid waste issues arising within its corporate limits. Other Cities within Saline County The five other cities in Saline County will continue to be directly responsible for solid waste management issues in their communities, consistent with the county -wide plan and goals. Saline County The county government has a somewhat more limited than usual, but very significant direct role in the implementation and success of the SW MP. The County is lead agency on three specific issues: • address all issues regarding illegal dumping in rural areas, e.g. public education, analysis and record keeping, clean-up, law enforcement and prosecution of offenders • development of a cost-effective disposal site for organic wastes, as needed • appoint people to fill designated positions on the Solid Waste Management Committee OF, The County also retains direct responsibility for the variety of solid waste issues involving unincorporated sections of the county, including rural subdivisions, individual farm/home sites, and other non -urban areas. Business Sector The vast majority of solid waste in the county is not residential waste. Significant opportunities exist to better manage commercial, institutional, and industrial solid waste in this community through waste reduction, diversion, and recycling programs. With the educational and non -mandatory approach preferred in this plan, business organization and cooperation is essential to meeting plan goals. In addition, the plan's preferred approach is that most new or expanded programs in solid waste should be privately led, with government encouragement and support. Business leadership and entrepreneurship is required. Citizens Success in meeting plan goals will occur as more citizens take personal responsibility in recognizing their own impact on the future of this community and the environment. With better public education, cooperation, and participation in voluntary programs for waste management, Salina and Saline County will be able to meet the objectives of this plan without additional governmental regulation. Enhancing the positives forthe future (recycling, composting, and source reduction), and minimizing negatives (illegal dumping, littering, and improper disposal) are clearly matters best addressed by greater individual responsibility, coupled with organized support from the public and private sectors. Summary The City has collected valuable information about the waste stream in our community. City staff will use this information to make recommendations that are data -driven and provide tangible results in waste reduction. City staff will also develop waste reduction strategies in 2022 and conduct a composting feasibility study in 2023. City staff intends to pursue grant opportunities and work closely with citizens and stakeholders on current waste reduction goals and develop new goal recommendations annually in collaboration with the community.
