Presentation transcript:

Cahuilla Solid Waste and Recycling Program  Funding  Siting a location  Design & Construction  Operation/Econo mics  Curbside service & Recycling  Waste Reduction & Handling

Funded under GAP  4 Year “Pilot” program  $20,000 approved for construction  Waste management position and bins funded for 4 years

Cahuilla Reservation Approximately 20,000 Acres, 70 Homes

Design & Construction  Limited funding under GAP ($20K)  80’x80’ (6,400 sq. ft.)  40’x40’ concrete pad.  10’x10’ storage building.  10’ high chain link fence, 2 slide gates  Five, 4 yard bins (20 cu. Yds. Cap.)

Operation / Economics  Open 3 day a week  Part time Waste tech  Started with 5 bins  $300 per bin for a total of $1,500 per month  Bins emptied once weekly/ 4 times monthly  Bulk bin twice yearly ($740 each)

The Case of the Disappearing Dumpsters !!

Dumpster Optimization   After 2 months, trash inflow decreases to just under 4 dumpsters per week ($1,200/Mo.)  Diversion of recyclables and green wastes gets it down to 3 ($900/Mo.)  Initiation of curbside pickup with limited capacity trash bins with additional recycle bins gets it down to 2 ($600/Mo.) down to 2 ($600/Mo.)

Penalized by Waste Management  $100 per dumpster added to our monthly Bill

The Big Kahuna ! 10 to 1 compaction on household refuse

What does that mean ?? 1 = ~ 10 = ~ 100 ==

That’s 400 cu. Yards of waste !!  Do the math: At an average of 10 cu. Yds. Per week = 40 cu. Yds. Per month = 10 months  Cost to empty = $400 hauling + $300 tipping.  Total trash charges = $1k vs. $18k at start!!

Next steps for Cahuilla solid waste program:  Fire Waste Management – Handle all solid wastes on the Reservation.  This includes: Casino ($18k/year) Present Transfer Station costs ($8k/year) TANF ($5k/year) and Tribal Hall ($4k/year) total of $35k/year.  All in close proximity – set up logistics of moving trash.

Recycling Program  Started (officially) this year.  Dove in small, diverting recyclables from trash brought to dumpsters.  Purchased scales and containers  Paying Tribal Members cash  CRV Aluminum cans, Glass Bottles  #1 & #2 CRV plastic  Accept all non CRV recyclables

Storage and Handling of recyclables

Compaction – best solution

The End
