Manangement Techology, Inc. appeared before the Commission to
explain that the criteria for choosing this site was as
follows: travel time from Briggs & Stratton is 10 - 15 minutes,
and the parcel size. The site was highly ranked by the DNR as
low population, favorable geneology; 50' of soil above bedrock,
having great potential. There is a high water table, and the
design would allow the ground water to move slowly, 100' in 100
years, Any liquid would be collected and moved from the site.
The solid waste material would be comprised of; 44% foundry
sands, 10% iron grindings and dust, 25% sludge, and 10% slag -
total waste would be 36,000 tons per year, utilizing 29 acres -
13 of which would be used for the landfill. The actual waste is
comprised of sweepings from making molds, foundry wet dust, sand
particles of iron and rust, wastewater treatment solids; sand,
screenings and shot blast dust; mostly made of clay and sand,
rock. Mr. Boettcher expressed concern regarding contamined
clay, lime, coke, and iron, and trace elements, limestone and
wells, and dust control. Mr. Mooney explained there would be an
additional step, and input from citizens, and a meeting with
Future Parkland Development, the siting committee and the

Kraemer said Briggs & Stratton should provide for waste on their

and asked that it be considered carefully. Mr. Raimann explained
