Incinerator bye bye
Charleston County Council is getting rid of our incinerator. I guess they ran the numbers and a few hundred more pounds of mercury released into our atmosphere will be okay until it shuts down at the end of ‘09.
What I enjoyed in the article is how Mt. Pleasant is hiring a consultant to gauge the impact of their trucks having to drive further to dump the trash. It seems like a pretty simple study to do(labor time lost to additional drive time, additional fuel additional wear and tear on vehicles), but perhaps beyond the scope of their city administrator, Mac Burdette. I personally don’t live in Mount Pleasant, but if I did I would like to see the city administrator do his job in this respect, instead of paying valuable city dollars to a consultant for a very simple study.
