As you all know the Hilo Landfill has had extensions on staying open. James Weatherford is incredibly well versed on these issues and was Bob Jacobsen's assistant previously and is working with the alternatives to our waste problems.
Here is his email to me. You can email me to get the PDF file of the 53 page report or email James directly.
Aloha,
The Council has not yet realized that garbage incineration is not appropriate for Hawaii Island.
In January there will be some opportunities to communicate to the Council regarding the ‘waste issue.’
Attached is a just-completed report. Bob Jacobson, chair of the Environmental Management Committee, has indicated that he will be putting this report on his committee’s agenda for discussion in January.
Please try to have a look at the report. The Executive Summary and the Conclusions/Recommendations give sufficient insight to allow testimony to the Council.
Burn? No can do!
