Case File: CU 10-08 <br />Page 6 <br />ERL CUP <br />City of Elk River <br />opportunities for the landfill within its current permitted boundaries. In his attached letter, Mr. <br />Ledvina points out: <br />a. The landfill has. approximately 9 acres in the northeast portion of its property <br />that could be utilized for landfill expansion.. Development of this area for <br />the deposit of solid waste would require consolidation and relocation of <br />existing facilities, but staff sees no obvious technical issues with development <br />of this area for solid waste disposal and encourages the landfill to investigate <br />this possibility. <br />b. The landfill could gain another acre of fill area by moving the south <br />boundary of cell 17 by 20 feet. This would require an amendment to the <br />existing CtJP, but staff sees no potential issues vrith such an amendment. <br />c. Considerable additional waste capacity could be gained by implementing a <br />leachate recirculation system for the landfill, which has been approved bythe <br />City. <br />Applicable Regulations <br />A.
