(KNZA)--Proposals are being sought for the operation of the Doniphan County transfer station.

According to the unofficial meeting minutes, Northeast Kansas Environmental Services Specialist Martha Smith met with the Doniphan County Commission Monday to discuss a request for proposals.

Waste Management, who currently operates the transfer station, has notified the county that they intend to end their contractual agreement on October 31st.
