Apr 3, 2008 News Jump to Comments

Olver Inc., on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners, will hold two transfer station siting public-information sessions over the next two weeks.

Olver is the consulting firm hired by the county to establish criteria, conduct the search and advise the commissioners on the selection of a site.

The first session will be held April 3, from 7 to 10 p.m. in the F. Gordon Battle Courtroom on East Margaret Lane in Hillsborough, and the second will be held April 10, from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Southern Human Services Center on Homestead Road in Chapel Hill.

The sessions will feature a presentation describing the function and operation of a solid-waste transfer station, as well as the transfer station siting process, focusing on the purpose and use of technical and community-specific criteria and weighing factors in the evaluation and final selection of a recommended site.

Olver will also receive public input regarding the site-selection process. For more information, visit www.olver.com/orangecounty/
