Abstract | This report analyzes the present and future municipal and industrial waste composition for the Rock Island region. Wastes are studied for classification and resource recovery. Projections of population, employment and waste loads were calculated. A summary of geological information for the Rock Island Region indicates the general soil and groundwater conditions and the possible effect of these conditions on sanitary landfill locations. Short-term planning solutions include those alternatives that could be expected to be operational within 2 to 3 years of acceptance. Ideally, short-term alternatives should lead to long-term solutions. |
