Ibanez Open Dump Proposed Cleanup Ibanez Open Dump Proposed Cleanup ProjectProject
Board’s contractor would blend on-site stabilized sludge with processed landscaping/green waste materials, gypsum, and clean fly ash for onsite agronomic application.
Other wastes and processing residues unable to be recycled would be removed to proper disposal at permitted facilities.
Sludge piles in excess of that needed for blending would be consolidated, graded, and covered. Height and footprint would be reduced and graded to minimize dust and odors, physical hazards and visual nuisance.
Install and upgrade gates and access controls.
Estimated cost: $1,750,000.

Cost recovery is applicable and would be pursued to the extent practicable (PRC 48023).
