CONTINUING BUSINESS
Updates on Odor Complaints
Mr. Hackney handed out three sheets (attached) for the Committee to review while he
explained what well improvements have taken place at the Landfill since May 2017 through the
present. He also made a couple of whiteboard drawings (pictures attached) for additional
explanation.
The Committee as a whole continued to discuss at great length and ask technical questions to
Mr. Hackney about the well improvements and where possible odor may be coming from.
After the nine wells (two additional and seven replacements) are completed by the contractors,
the wells need to slowly be brought online into use. Hopefully this will be completed by the end
of January. A drone flyover for smell is planned in February.
The Committee discussed odors that have traveled further than in the past. They all agreed
2019 was the worst year for odor. Mr. Slocomb talked about his discussions with the Franklin
Landfill managers and stated we need to take care of ourselves before moving into more
discussions with Franklin about resolving odors between the two sites.
Mr. Slocomb talked about his plan to attempt to notify residents that have complained about
odor as to what the Landfill is doing to control it. The Committee also talked about who should Page 2 of 3
Approval of Minutes of the January 6, 2020 Meeting
Packet Page 4
be the custodian of records for the complaints. Director Kroeger suggested we put general
information onto the website, not individual emails, too time consuming.
OTHER BUSINESS
Mr. Slocomb stated he was approached by the Franklin Landfill to have a joint meeting to
discuss odor complaints and possible solutions between both sites. The Committee agreed
that it was too early to have a joint meeting. They want to wait until the new wells are up and
running first.
Review Payments made from Committee Funds
Confirm Next Meeting Date: April 6, 2020 at 5:00 PM
The Committee agreed to a special meeting date of March 2, 2020 to review odors.
