Hi Patrick,
Thanks for reviewing the permit and sending in your comments. Before I make any changes to the draft permit, I just
wanted to respond to your comments and hopefully clarify a couple of things.
Comment 1
Currently, as I understand it, SLVSWMC should be considered an operator. In the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
between Salt Lake County and Salt Lake City where both are listed as parties (see attached), it states that the "Parties
shall jointly own and operate the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Management Facility (together with any other joint solid
waste transfer, processing, recycling, or disposal facilities of the Parties, the "Facility")". The agreement implies that the
operation portion will be carried out by the SLVSWMC through the duties listed in Powers and Duties section. The duties
in the agreement include assisting with the orderly operation of the Facility, Facility programs, and the finances of the
facility.
In the contract between Salt Lake County and E.T. Technologies, the terms "operate/operator" seem to refer to day-to-day
management, but the Interlocal Agreement, Utah Solid and Hazardous Waste Act, and our Solid Waste Permitting and
Management Rules use the terms in a broader sense to include finances and other operations. So, if I understand
correctly, the Council (not the City or the County) is actually "operating" some portions of the SRS.
SLVSWMC is a joint entity between the City and the County. The City and the County are already included as permittees.
So ideally, and for the reasons above, SLVSWMC would also be included as a permittee.
If you disagree with my assessment of the situation, please explain SLVSWMC’s involvement in the operation of the
Facility, especially its financial involvement in the context of the Interlocal Agreement. After receiving that information, we
can reassess.
Comment 2
The Owner Phone number will be corrected.
Comment 3
Good catch. Since it takes several months from the time the waste is accepted by E.T. to the time it leaves the facility as
compost, let's reword IV.A.2. to say: "The Permittees shall notify the Director of the projected final receipt of waste in
accordance with R315-302-3(4) and begin closure activities in accordance with an approved Closure Plan within 30 days
of final receipt of waste removal of soil compost from site." This language will ensure that the final closure plan will not
contradict the permit.
Comment 4
After the closure costs are adjusted for inflation from 2001-2004 (2021=1.042, 2022=1.070, 2023=1.037), the total cost
comes to $555,640. Because the bond no longer covers the costs of closure, it will need to be adjusted accordingly. In
8/21/24, 5:56 PM State of Utah Mail - DSHW-2024-002302
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ik=7a8f3b10ce&view=pt&search=all&permthid=thread-f:1788808180023361096&simpl=msg-f:178880818002336109…3/5
any case where the bond is altered, an updated copy of the bond (or the bond rider) needs to be submitted to DWMRC. If
the contract between the County and E.T. also needs to change, please send DWMRC an updated copy.
For bond-related questions, please contact our financial assurance specialist, Brent Gaschler (brgaschler@utah.gov, 385-
454-5330). I've already informed him about the situation, so he should have some ideas of how to easily sort things out.
In conclusion, if you could just send some additional information related to Comment 1 and work on updating the bond to
cover the closure costs adjusted for inflation, we will be good to go.
Please reach out with any questions!
Thanks,
Wade

RE: Draft Permit Review – E.T. Technologies, Inc. Soils Regeneration Site SW431
Dear Mr. Speer:
Please receive the following comments from Salt Lake County and Salt Lake City regarding the draft permit:
-Cover letter and Page 1 of the Draft Permit list the “Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Management Council” as an
operator of this facility. ET is the sole operator of this facility as per the Contract with Salt Lake County.
-Page 2 of the draft lists the Owner Phone Number as 801-977-0731. This number belongs to ET. The correct
number would be 385-468-6370.
-Page 11 of the draft Section IV.A.2, specifically the requirement to begin closure activities within 30 days of final
receipt of waste, does not allow enough time to complete processing of all the waste received following the final
receipt of waste.
-Page 12 of the draft Section IV.C.1 requires an approved financial mechanism to cover the cost of Closure. Since
the Letter dated December 3, 2020, from ET to Patrick Craig is part of Attachment #2 – Closure and Post-Closure
Requirements of this draft, we assume that DEQ has approved the current financial assurance mechanism that is
in place between ET and Salt Lake County. If this is the case, Salt Lake County would need to complete an
amendment to the contract with ET to allow for the required adjustments in Section IV.D.1 of this draft. The
annual adjustment would need to be completed annually after December 2020.
If you have any questions, please contact me by email at pcraig@slco.org or by phone at 385-522-4949.
