IWP Landfill Closure
Bids Accepted
The Dillon County Council received seven bids on the IWP Landfill Closure at a called meeting in April. R.E. Goodson was the low bidder at $525,800. An allowance of up to $140,000 in additional costs is allowed if they have to haul from the borrow pit. It was stated that permit submission of the finale 5-acre site of the Old River Road pit has begun. The goal was that the closure of the IWP would begin around the third or fourth or April.
