SECTION 1.0 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY1.1 Plan Development and ObjectivesEnvironmental concerns in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s prompted both the United StatesEnvironmental Protection Agency and South Carolina’s General Assembly to pass newregulations pertaining to the management of solid waste. On May 27, 1991 the SouthCarolina Solid Waste Policy and Management Act of 1991 (herein the “Act”) was signed intolaw. This Spartanburg County 2011 Solid Waste Management Plan (herein “Plan”) datedAugust 15, 2011 was prepared to help maintain compliance with the Act, to be consistentwith recent court decisions, regulation revisions and other changes to solid wastemanagement, and to develop a fundamentally reliable long-term (for a planning period of atleast twenty years) plan for solid waste management for Spartanburg County.The initial Spartanburg County Solid Waste Management Plan (developed by the County in1994) included public participation through the composition of the local Solid Waste AdvisoryCouncil (SWAC). The SWAC included representatives from County Government,municipalities, commercial recyclers, solid waste haulers, and interested citizens. Themeetings of the SWAC were advertised and open to the public. By resolution of CountyCouncil and as allowed by the Act, the SWAC was dissolved on January 17, 2000.The information included in this Plan was obtained from the County’s previous Solid WasteManagement Plan (SWMP) dated June 2004, Spartanburg County Solid Waste staff, theSouth Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC), the FY10 SouthCarolina Solid Waste Management Annual Report, the South Carolina Budget and ControlBoard, Office of Research and Statistics, and the South Carolina Parks Recreation andTourism.1.2 Plan RevisionAs outlined in the Act, the Plan must be reviewed and revised as needed to include changesthat are deemed necessary at the time.
