The Mariposa Grand Jury
2014-2015 Final Report included an investigation into the Mariposa County
Landfill and Compost Facility.
SUMMARY
The Grand Jury conducted an
overall review and evaluation of the Mariposa County Landfill and Compost
Facility. This review was independently generated and examined the
current operational status of the facility, as well as current and future
issues Mariposa County will face regarding solid waste management.
The Grand Jury found the
facility to be well managed and operating at a high level of
efficiency considering the current state of equipment, staffing levels,
and the regulatory mandates it must meet.
However, several serious
issues involving the longevity of the Landfill, alternative plans
for solid waste management, and the efficient operation of the Compost
Facility currently face County management. Some of these issues
require timely decision making and implementation for Mariposa County to
meet state mandated requirements, to commit to advantageous
economic offerings, and to ensure County residents are well served by
their government.
