In addition to the purpose indicated by the title, the study was also designed to : (1) explore the possibilities of reducing direct haul distances; (2) study the use of solid waste bales as filling in reclaiming small canyons near residential areas; (3) compare the compaction obtained by baling with that achieved through conventional methods; (4) investigate baling as an integral feature of possible transfer station operations; (5) develop yardsticks, formulas, and techniques that might be useful to other communities in dealing with their solid waste collection and disposal problems. |
