Though you asked for only two simple things, it is not simple for us to provide either <br /> of them. <br /> 1. 40 acres of land, preferably near the present solid waste base yard. <br /> This does not exist, though there are some large areas beyond the landfill that the State controls. <br /> However, let's leave this request aside for the moment. <br /> 2. 150 - 200 tons of solid waste per dav. <br /> We cannot "give" you almost all the rubbish that is presently being landfilled at the South Hilo <br /> Sanitary Landfill unless we know that you are legally able to accept it. At the least, I believe you will <br /> need: <br /> • A solid waste management facility permit from the State Department of Health and, <br /> • To conduct the various studies and analysis that make up an Environmental Impact Statement. <br /> The Department of Environmental Management has provided an application form for a solid waste <br /> management facility for your use. It is enclosed. <br /> If you can direct us to a working model of this technology, I will send someone to investigate, as the process <br /> sounds promising. Thank you again for caring about our problems and looking for an innovative solution. <br /> Aloh , <br /> a Kim <br /> MAYOR <br /> Enclosure ~?'TM <br /> Rif.
