Section 4 <br />Waste Management and Reduction Programs <br />Table 4 -8. Composting and Mulching - Intended Actions <br />Jurisdiction Intended Action <br />Town of Midland 1. Continue issuing burn permits to reduce yard wastes. <br />-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br />Cabarrus County 2. Partner with the jurisdictions to educate the public about FOG causing sewer blockages and <br />restrictions and promote alternatives such as composting. <br />-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br />All Municipalities 3. Continue to provide education on composting/mulching opportunities through websites, community <br />events, and government channels. <br />4.5.2 Intended Actions <br />There are no current intended actions established <br />by the jurisdictions of Cabarrus County related to <br />incineration. The amount of waste generated in the <br />region is not currently considered sufficient to <br />make an incineration or WTE facility economically <br />feasible, at least compared to existing disposal <br />technologies. Therefore, cost is an impediment to <br />further pursing incineration or WTE at this time. <br />4.6 Waste Transfer <br />4.6.1 Current Activities <br />Private hauling firms contracted by CII waste <br />generators haul a small amount of waste outside of <br />the County, although most is disposed at the CMS <br />landfill as shown in Table 4 -9. There are no transfer <br />stations within the County. In addition, the <br />Uwharrie Environmental Materials Recovery <br />Facility accepts mixed waste to be sorted and sent <br />to recycling facilities. <br />The East Spencer Waste Transfer Facility <br />discontinued operations in August 2008. Waste <br />transferred from the facility was disposed at the <br />CMS landfill. <br />Table 49 <br />Summary of MSW Transferred Outside Cabarrus County (tons) <br />racility Name <br />BFI - Charlotte Motor Speedway (CMS) Landfill (NC) <br />004 <br />150,130 <br />7005 <br />159,831 <br />2006 <br />168,278 <br />2007 <br />180,439 <br />2008 <br />160,981 <br />Palmetto Landfill (SC) <br />0 <br />0 <br />O <br />257 <br />9 <br />Union County Landfill (SC) <br />0 <br />0 <br />O <br />o <br />12 <br />Rowan County Landfill (NC) <br />20 <br />199 <br />850 <br />1 <br />631 <br />Chambers Development Landfill (NC) <br />O <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />431 <br />Uwharrie Environmental MRF /MWP Facility (NC) <br />148 <br />142 <br />139 <br />71 <br />88 <br />Uwharrie Env.
