At our November 15, 1978 committee meeting Post, Buckley, Schuh
and Jernigan, Inc., gave a presentation on the progress of their study.
There was some indication from the consultant's representative that
they would perhaps have difficulty completing the study in the alloted
time frame. The Committee made it perfectly clear that it was imperative
that all schedules be adhered to.

Re:
Solid Waste Management Report
Dear Sir:
In the interim, the Committee has been meeting and considering
various alternatives, and their feasibility, for management, franchise,
collection, source separation, method of collection and a public re-
lations plan. However, until the study has been completed, it is
impossible to attempt to finalize a draft plan.
I did attend the 3rd Annual Solid Haste Management Horkshop,
October 11-12, 1978 at Gainesville. A representative from DER made some
comments and recommendations that I would like to pass on to you:
1. A new rule (Chapter 17-7) has been written and will be
published in draft form this December. Public Hearings are to be held
in January.
2. It was said that, if after careful study a county
determined that resource recovery was not feasible, a simple statement to
DER stating that resource recovery is not feasible will be satisfactory.
3. There will be no extension to the July 1, 1979 deadline.

4. Before final adoption by the County, coordinate the
plan with DER.
The rest of the meeting was about as last year and there has been
no real advancement in any of the present counties and municipalities
that have a resource recovery program.
For your information I have enclosed a copy of the Florida Resource
Recovery Status Report. From all indications, we in Seminole County, are
far ahead of the majority of other designated counties.
Mr. Schuder will be present to answer any questions you may have
regarding our program. ~
