BACKGROUND
Contra Costa County is a leader in the siting and approval of
a new landfill . Enormous strides have been made in evaluating
and processing the County' s landfill applications .
The Keller sanitary landfill was one of the few sites approved
by the voters . Construction at the site is progressing to the
point where is will be physically ready to accept waste on or
about April 1 , 1992 . The Keller site received a positive vote,
and is firmly supported by environmentalists .
The State told the County to find a landfill . We have done so,
and construction is in progress at a rapid rate . Since time is
of the essence, the invitation should be sent to the Integrated
Waste Management Board now so that the members can see the
Keller landfill prior to completion.
