Officer Lee stated this is restoration bond, not a performance
bond. The restoration bond should be increased to meet the rate
of inflation. Other bonds might be necessary for the asphalting.

a closure bond and financial responsiblity for long term be
coordinated with the State. The bond mentioned by the engineer's
report is to cover the sedimentation pond during operation, and
is more of a performance bond.
Mr. Malozzi explained that when phase 2 is closed there will be 2
feet of clay and 6" of topsoil covering the waste, running to the
west on clean soil. In the open active area will be sloped so
that any rainfall will go into the leachate area. Dr. Parthum

Mr. Malozzi pointed out that the sedimentation basin is not part
of the waterway. but the sediment removal is part of the plan.

basin as needed to eliminate the discharge of sediment to the

There would be a swale to collect that water to keep the water
from spreading out, and the DNR in an on-site inspection, would

Mayor Salentine suggested discussion regarding the volume of
water. Mr. Malozzi said water would flow to the northwest, there
will be a barrier so it doesn't go into the site, and there will
be two culverts, one on each side, and would exit at the same
point it does now. Mr. Constantineau pointed out that residents
may be confusing the velocity of water with the volume. The
Commission agreed there will not be more water, but issue of
velocity is still open.
