FISCAL IMPACT: Funding is included in the Enterprise I Fund operational budget.

Our facilities are monitored on a quarterly basis to ensure that hazardous waste is being disposed of properly.

They inventory hazardous waste, sort and package chemical waste, clean up spilled material. They deliver supplies, package chemical waste from the morgue, pharmacy, public health, pathology and hazardous waste shed. They pick up chemical waste and hazardous waste. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The Service is Mandatory to comply with State and Federal Regulations. If not approved, services will have to be gotten elsewhere. This would probably require piecing the different services that are done by this one company to multiple companies. This company is tried and true, efficient and reliable. They have been used for a number of years and have served us well. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Not applicable. CLERK'S ADDENDUM RELISTED to an undetermined date.
