Public Notice for Sterling Water Works Sewage Solids Monofill Permit


The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) proposes to issue Solid Waste
Disposal Permit No. SWYA072-31, to SWW MGMT LLC, to operate a sewage solids monofill.

APPLICANT INFORMATION:
Landowner: Andrew Holland
Landfill Operator: SWW MGMT LLC
Location: 37605 Robinson Loop Road, Sterling, Alaska 99672

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The monofill will be used for the disposal of sewage solids generated from the Sterling Water
Works septage treatment facility which is used to dewater septage from domestic sources. The
facility is located on a 28-acre parcel with approximately 4 acres cleared and developed for the
recently built septage treatment plant and the proposed monofill. The monofill will consist of
two separate cells constructed in two phases to reduce the overall area of the open monofill cell
at any time and will accept only sewage solids generated from dewatered septage from the onsite
treatment facility. The anticipated volume of sewage solids to be disposed of at this facility is
approximately 2,196 cubic yards.
