Haulers Hayducsko reported that he sent letters to two haulers and gave until March 1 Oth to pay in full, otherwise Corporation Counsel will take over the matter. Recycling a) Hayducsko reported that three bids have been received for tire recycling, one for $70 per ton and one for $72 per ton, there is great competition out there. Gansluckner has visited Bee Line Tire Recycling, a family owned business with facilities in Edgar and Tomahawk, Wi. If chosen as a vendor, tires would be shredded at the Tomohawk facility. Bee Line has the ability to shred up to 1000 tires per hour. Hayducsko has talked to DNR and they say this company has done a good job for them. The question is do they need a Performance Bond, talked to Corporate Counsel about this, so will have Timmerman give his opinion. Timmerman said the company would prefer to provide a Letter of Credit, in his opinion this is as good as a Bond and is less expensive. The Letter of Credit would be made for a specific amount of money. News Letter Hayducsko reported the big item is the Tire program, continue to publish what is recyclable, list of information, appliances etc,. Newsletter will be mailed in late April or May, will be finalized end of this month. Also have had questions on Sharps disposal. Needles from diabetic medication etc, and have made some contacts to accept them. 1 Chairperson Horne asked that the Agricultural Clean Sweep report be given now so the Committee can go into closed session for the rest of the meeting. Agricultural Clean Sweep Corporate Counsel has questions why the County must be considered the hazardous waste generator just because they have provided a place to handle it and would like to see if the disposal company can be responsible instead of the County. Chairperson Horne suggested talking with WCA and the Towns Association and see if this question could be answered. Hayducsko stated the date for the meeting is temporarily set for September 16, 1995, but we need to work the date out with Highway Department which does not want it in the building they provided two years ago. They do have another building with a dirt floor and plastic could be put down to prevent contamination. Highway Department also has a concern about the Clean Sweep being on a Saturday. They would prefer a day when their staff is present. Chairperson Horne will ask the Highway Committee to take a stand on this problem. Hayducsko presented the award that he received for the County "1995 Arrow Recycling award for "Buy Recycled", which is made from recycled glass and hand blown.
