Re: MWCC - Solid Waste Disposal Permit Application (File #9151-1)
Dear John:
In response to your notification on November 5 regarding the above
referenced permit application from the MTCA regarding the Seneca
Ash Landfill Project, the City has presently reviewed the plans
and specifications with MWCC and finds no objection to their
proposal, with the understanding that they will adequately control
any wind and/or water erosion problems resulting from this temporary
disposal site. We have requested that adequate temporary erosion
control measures. be maintained and that, once completed, the area
be reestablished with proper vegetative covering to minimize future
erosion potential. We would appreciate it if you would take this
request into consideration in issuing the requested permit by the
MWCC.
Respectfully submitted,
