MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor and City Council <br />FROM: Rebecca Haug, Environmental Administrator <br />DATE: April 9, 2012 <br />SUBJECT: Means to Increase Fuel to GRE Plant <br />Over the past few years, the volumes of waste being processed at Great River Energy's (GRE) facility have <br />decreased. It has come to staff's attention that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has <br />delayed enforcement of MN Statute, 473.848, which requires metropolitan area waste haulers to bring <br />mixed municipal solid waste (MSS to a resource recovery facility before sending it to a landfill. Staff is <br />concerned about continued operation with GRE's Elk River Resource Recovery Project and is interested <br />in discussing options to bring more fuel to the facility. <br />N:\Public Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\04-09-2012\GRE.docx <br />A~~ <br />
