The basic objectives of the study were to develop the following: (1) A long-term regional solid waste disposal program involving novel concepts for the reuse of sanitary landfill sites to obtain the maximum efficiency of use and reuse of publicly owned lands while minimizing overall costs of sanitary landfill operations; (2) A prototype interagency planning program to integrate all governmental planning functions (highways, schools, flood control, water quality control, air pollution control, parks, recreation, refuse disposal, etc.), and to provide useful procedures and policies that will aid in securing the public's acceptance of regional solid waste management programs; and, (3) An ordinance that will provide the means for implementing the regional solid waste disposal program developed from the interagency planning program.
