Cabarrus County Solid Waste Management Plan 2012- <br />2022 <br />Accounting for State Funds <br />Cabarrus County has established a separate account for deposit and expenditure of all state <br />funds received pursuant to Session Law 2010 -67, and will comply with all generally accepted <br />accounting principles. <br />Intended Actions: <br />Cabarrus County <br />• Partner with Towns of Midland and Mount Pleasant on electronics collection <br />events <br />• Add covered storage capacity at HHW Facility and provide weather- tolerant <br />containers for each collection site <br />6. j. 4. Abandoned Manufactured Homes <br />Cabarrus County has considered and decided against a program, because it has determined that <br />abandoned manufactured homes are not currently a significant threat to public health and the <br />environment in the County. Midland's housing code requires maintenance of manufactured homes <br />to prevent abandonment. <br />The County will continue to monitor the situation and if conditions warrant, will develop a written plan <br />and included it in the next Solid Waste Management Plan Update. <br />6. j. 5. Household Hazardous Waste <br />Current: <br />The County operates a permanent HHW facility, which is located at 246 General Services Drive <br />in Concord and is permitted to accept HHW materials from residents twice per month: on the <br />first Wednesday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm and the third Saturday from 8:00am to 1:00pm. <br />Private waste disposal firms remove and treat all but pesticides, which are handled by the NC <br />Department of Agriculture's Pesticide Disposal Assistance Program. <br />During FY 2011, Cabarrus County collected approximately 32 tons of HHW. Materials accepted <br />include: pesticides, herbicides, batteries, degreasers, fluorescent bulbs, paints, solvents, <br />mercury thermometers, and others. <br />34 <br />Attachment number 2 <br />F -7 Page 165 <br />
