Lot #3Treatment and recycling, recovery, or disposal of MBT plant Belt SweepingsPlanned

Lot #5Contingency for Residual Waste reception and treatmentPlanned
Contingency arrangements for the reception and treatment or landfill disposal of primarily residual waste, but possibly other non-hazardous waste streams. Normally for one or two days due to breakdown or plant maintenance at DGC’s MBT plant. But on rare occasions planned plant maintenance may last for several weeks.
