Floyd Mitchell Chickasaw Solid Waste Management Agency
Unapproved - Executive Board Minutes
July 13, 2021

On Tuesday, July 13, 2021 in the Meeting Room at the Floyd Mitchell Chickasaw Landfill at 5:30 p.m. the regular meeting of the Executive Board of the Floyd Mitchell Chickasaw Solid Waste Management Agency was held in person and by Zoom due to COVID-19.

Chairman, Tim Zoll was present, Executive Board members, Al Anhorn, Doug Kamm, Jerry Joerger, Trevis O’Connell, Rick Bodensteiner, Steve Smolik were in the Board Room and Cindy Lantow, Bobby Schwickerath were present by Zoom.

Employees Present: Christian Fox, Director.

Guests Present: None

A motion was made by Doug Kamm, second by Jerry Joerger to approve the consent agenda as presented including Minutes of the May 2021 Executive Board Meeting and the Summary List of Bills for June 2021. All members present voting aye, motion carried.

Citizen Forum:  None

Financial report: Joerger went over the financial report and CD list and stated that we were 9 months into the budget and that there was not anything that appeared out of line. With some discussion, Bodensteiner made a motion to approve and O’Connell seconded. All members present voting aye, motion carried.

Selling of old scrap metal and t-posts: It was brought to the attention that the Landfill has a surplus of unusable fence posts, old fuel barrel stands and other miscellaneous iron to clean up, and take to the scrap yard. A motion was made by Joerger and second by Smolik to clean up and sell all unusable scrap iron. All members present voting aye, motion carried. 

Waste treatment plants’ special waste and grit: It was brought to the board's attention that the Charles City POWT is upgrading their facility and that they would be having an increased amount of special waste and/or grit screenings but the waste would not be the same as the previous and/or current special waste/sludge and grit screenings.  Fox stated that the Landfill requires testing of the product using the TCLP or Totals tests, if testing was completed and the waste did not fall under the Special Waste Criteria, it could be handled and charged as regular waste. He also stated that all POWT’s in the Landfill’s service area needed to be in compliance with the Landfill’s regulations and the treatment plants needed to come up with a plan with the Landfill to handle the special waste. No action was taken at this time.

Purchase of AED/CPR training for staff: Fox brought to the attention of the board that the Landfill did not have an AED at the facility and thought it would be a necessity to have one on site incase of an emergency.  CPR training was also brought up as a necessity. Bodensteiner stated that the City of Osage requires their staff to be CPR certified and that finding a course or instructor wouldn’t be an issue. A motion was made to purchase an AED and allow staff to participate in CPR training by Joerger and second by Anhorn. All members present voting aye, motion carried.

Hay ground agreement- Kamm brought to the attention of the board that he was recently contacted by Keith Glaser, the tenant of the Landfill’s hay ground in regard to possibly planting a corn crop on the 6 acres for one year. Fox stated that in the current contract it stated that the tenant may only grow forages of hay on this parcel. After some discussion, it was stated that the area was planted into hay ground to reduce erosion. No action was taken at this time.

Director’s Report- Fox stated that operations had been running very smoothly. He next stated that the new hydromulcher had arrived and works very well, and the Pittboss evaporator is set for arrival within the upcoming week or so. He attended the Iowa Society of Solid Waste Operations spring conference in Fort Madison and stated that the conference was very informative. It was stated that there was a fire on the cell at the Landfill on the 22nd of June. All staff responded and extinguished the fire in a little over two hours. Fox shared with the board that Jendro Sanitation was changing hands and was being taken over by a company in Mankato, MN. He did not expect anything to change with the Landfill’s income. Fox stated that the tonnage report for the month of June was 4193 tons

Old Business- None

There being no further items requiring board action, the meeting was adjourned at 6:16 p.m. with a motion by Rick Bodensteiner second by Steve Smolik.  All members present voting aye, motion carried.
