Minutes of April 1, 1987 Page 2 SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL Jim Bible, Director of Environmental Services, Seminole County, discussed the County's solid waste disposal operation and the Osceola Landfill. He reported that part of the landfill site has a life estimate of 50 to 60 years and other parts have a life estimate of 100 years; that the site is in an excellent location and the Northern part has a very thick natural clay layer so it does not require installation of liners, and the Southern portion of the site will probably require liners in about 30 years. Further, the site can be sloped so that rainwater runs off the site instead of going through the garbage and forming leachate. Mr. Bible further reported that the County is looking for land in the Five Points area for a centrally located transfer station and when one is built there, the Sanlando and Oviedo Transfer Stations will be closed. Chairman Dees asked what the County's plans are for hazardous waste disposal and Mr. Bible explained the difficulties involved with hazardous waste disposal and reported that Seminole County has no concerted plan.
