The Bradley Landfill Transition Master Plan consists of two phases: (1) a proposed increase in the presently permitted height of the landfill to permit continued operations at the levels allowed under current permits; and (2) implementation of a transfer station operation within the current landfill site. The purpose of the Bradley Landfill Transition Master Plan is to provide for an orderly transition of the existing landfill site from an active landfill to a transfer station operation that will receive solid waste for disposal at other landfills.

The landfill is currently approved to be built to a maximum height of 1,010 feet above mean sea level (msl). Under Phase I of the Bradley Landfill Transition Master Plan, the applicant requests to increase the maximum height of the landfill by 43 feet for a maximum height of 1,053 feet above msl. This increase in height would allow the landfill to continue operating at its current level of activity until its currently established closure date of April 14, 2007.

The applicant proposes to convert the existing landfill operation into a transfer station where solid waste loads are received, consolidated, and transported to other local or regional landfill facilities. The transfer station would be located on the west side of the landfill in a reclaimed sand and gravel mine. When the transfer station is operational, active landfill operations would be phased out.
