(KAIR)--$9,500. That's the cost to the County of Atchison based on past violations found at the County Landfill.
County Commissioner Jeff Schuele says the approval to pay the fines was approved on Tuesday.
He says the various “remedial violations”, cited in 2015, included such issues as solid waste plan documentation, and trash debris in the construction and demolition pile.
The problems have already been remedied.
The matter was addressed by current County Solid Waste manager, Staci Joice, who was not on the job at the time the violations occurred.
During her time before the Commission this week, Joice also sought approval for the purchase of a truck trailer loadout scale for use at the landfill.
The Commission said yes to the more than $49,000 price tag.
