RELOOC "Phased Option" Approach to
Managing Solid Waste Disposal in Orange County
PHASE 1 : SHORT-TERM STRATEGIES*
♦ Fully use the capacity of existing landfill sites before seeking new sites or alternative waste
disposal methods by:
■ Maximizing operational efficiency at existing landfills (e.g., compacting refuse).
■ Increasing the landfill capacity of Frank R. Bowerman (FRB) and Olinda Alpha landfills.
■ Proactively encouraging residents, businesses and the waste hauling industry to recycle
and promote the development of markets for products made from recycled materials.
I
♦ Seek to resolve the community's concerns related to the extended use of the landfills.
♦ Modify the RELOOC plan as new information and insights emerge about advances in
technology and industry trends.
PHASE 2: LONG-TERM STRATEGIES (By 2021 )* I
♦ Determine if there is a need to increase the daily amount of solid waste permitted at the
Prima Deshecha Landfill.
♦ Identify strategies, including new technologies, to maximize solid waste disposal capacity.
i
♦ Complete a feasibility study of expanding FRB Landfill into the adjacent Round Canyon after
FRB reaches capacity.
* Projects to be implemented under Phases 1 or 2 require CEQA analysis and review.
