  1. Discussion And Request For Direction Regarding Disposal Reports And Disposal Allocations To Jurisdictions At Potrero Hills Landfill in Solano County August 2003

  2. Current Disposal Reporting System • Haulers must report jurisdiction-of-origin on all loads delivered during quarterly survey week (minimum state requirement) • Facilities submit quarterly summary reports to host agency/County • Host agency/County reports quarterly to the Board and to all affected jurisdictions • Jurisdictions use disposal data to calculate diversion rates in annual reports to the Board

  3. Historical Information • Jurisdictions began to raise concerns to Solano County and to the Board regarding disposal data for the year 2001 • Solano County staff investigated, identified problems with Potrero Hills Landfill data and worked on revising the 2001 disposal reporting data • Board staff have met with Solano County and Potrero Hills Landfill staff numerous times to identify and correct problems with the disposal data for 2001

  4. Historical Information (Continued) • Solano County has submitted numerous revisions of the 2001 Disposal Reporting Data to the Board, but data errors still exist. • April 2003 – Board staff gave a presentation at the CIWMB Committee Meeting regarding the inaccuracies with the 2001 Disposal Data. • Potrero Hill Landfill staff agreed to revise all quarters of 2001 by May 2003 and submit 2002 disposal data by June 2003.

  5. Historical Information (Continued) • July 2003 – Potrero Hills Landfill submitted revised disposal reports for the year 2001 to Solano County. • Solano County has reviewed the data and has found no errors and will submit a 2001 disposal report to the Board

  6. Issues with Potrero Hills Landfill 2001 Disposal Data • Incomplete data by jurisdiction - Tonnage from transfer stations was not allocated to jurisdictions - Some transfer station names were not in the Board’s “Solid Waste Information System” - Tonnage from regional haulers without any jurisdiction allocation data - Districts listed as jurisdiction of origin

  7. Issues with Potrero Hills Landfill 2001 Disposal Data (Continued) • Large turnover in landfill staff and lack of training for new staff • Very large amount of Board staff time spent contacting and discussing issues with County, landfill, & jurisdictions • Potential impact on 2001 diversion rate calculations for jurisdictions disposing at Potrero Hills

  9. Current Status • Potrero Hills Landfill has submitted the revised reports to Solano County (July 2003). • Solano County has reviewed the data and found no discrepancies or errors and will submit the disposal report for 2001 to the Board. • Potrero Hills Landfill still needs to revise and submit 2002 DRS data to Solano County as many of the same issues found in 2001 apply.

  10. Options for the Board’s Direction • Continue to work with Solano County and Potrero Hills Landfill staff to complete and submit the disposal report for 2002 by August 31st. • Notify all potentially impacted jurisdictions when data is corrected in the Disposal Reported system and post information on the Board’s web site. • Develop web pages to publicize lack of compliance with Disposal Reporting System requirements. • Direct staff to post Potrero Hills Landfill on the new web pages if 2002 disposal data is not received by August 31st.
