BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATIONS: Following the Board's adoption of the $75.97/ton rate for the Acme Interim Transfer Station, Acme expressed concern to staff regarding the effective date of the rate for non-franchised haulers. Apparently, Acme has a considerable number of accounts/self-haulers who have already paid for the month of November. For some there are no records, since they were cash transactions. Consequently, the effective date of November 1, 1992 presents an administrative and equity problem for Acme. The total tonnage at issue is approximately 2,500 tons as compared to the approximately 40,000 tons per month received at the transfer station. Thus these receipts are only about 6% of total receipts. While the tonnage is minimal, the number of accounts is very large. There are approximately 300 charge accounts, unrelated to franchise haulers and approximately 1,000 self-hauler cash transactions per month. Staff believes that the savings from applying the effective November 1, 1992 date to all customers would be lost due to administrative costs. Consequently staff recommends clarification that the November 1, 1992 effective date applies only to franchise haulers with a December 1, 1992 effective date for all other transactions.
