ity of <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />**ITEM 3.7.** <br /> <br /> TO: <br />iver <br /> <br />MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />STEPHEN ROHLF, BUILDING AND <br />ZONING ADMINISTRATOR <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />FEBRUARY 18, 1997 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: TEMPORARY EXTENDED HOUR FOR <br /> NRG/RDF PLANT <br /> <br />The NRG/RDF plant needs to resurface their cement tipping floor. They hope <br />to accomplish this task in two pours. Having half their tipping floor out of <br />commission during a pour will create several operational problems. <br /> <br />To resolve these problems NRG is making the following request: <br /> <br />Extending hours for receiving MSW from 3:00 AM to 10:00 PM, seven <br />days a week. Current hours are 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through <br />Saturday. They will need these extended hours because with only 1/2 of <br />the tipping floor useable, there will not be enough room to stock pile MSW <br />waiting to be processed. <br /> <br />NRG is also requesting approval to ship RDF to UPA between the hours of <br />4:00 PM and 6:30 PM. These hours are currently restricted by the City's <br />permits because of traffic concerns. NRG stated that they will not use <br />these additional hours unless they need to. <br /> <br />· Lastly, NRG is requesting permission to have open top trailers in the <br /> citizen drop-off area during the first pour for non-processibles. <br /> <br />If approved, NRG would do their first pour starting on April 6, 1997. <br />Preparation, the pour, and curing/sealing will take nine days. If the first pour <br />is not too much of a hindrance to their operations they will finish the job in <br />one additional pour; two additional pours if it is a problem. NRG is asking <br />for approximately 18 days of extended hours. <br /> <br />It behooves the City that NRG's tipping floor is in good repair. Staff <br />recommends that NRG be granted the additional hours outlined <br />above to repair their tipping floor, except that these additional <br />hours shall not be during a holiday period. <br /> <br /> s:Xb&zXstever\nrgpour.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
