That the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) take the following action:

A. Conduct a quasi-judicial public hearing to consider the conditional use determination to allow for an asphalt/concrete crushing recycling and processing facility, located at 13009 Beulah Road, per the conditions as prescribed in Chapter 2 Article 2-6.4(c)(3)a-i of the Land Development Code (LDC) along with the conditions as prescribed in Chapter 3 Article 3-2.11(c)(5)d1-4 of the LDC;

B. Review and either approve, modify, or deny the authorization of a conditional use; and

C. Review and either approve, modify, or deny the request for issuance of a recycling permit for an asphalt/concrete crushing recycling and processing facility located at 13009 Beulah Road, Perdido Landfill.

BACKGROUND:

Escambia County owns and operates an active Class I landfill known as the Perdido Landfill, located in Cantonment, Florida. The facility is managed and operated by the Escambia County Waste Services Department (WSD) under the jurisdiction of multiple State and/or Federal Permits. The Perdido Landfill occupies a total area of 424 acres which includes an active Class I Landfill, a closed Class I Landfill (FDEP Permit No. 0000667-031-SO-01), a Class III Landfill (FDEP Permit No. 0000667-033-SO-T3), a yard trash collection and processing facility, a waste tire collection center (FDEP Permit No. 0000667-034-WT-05), and a citizens’ drop off center.

Per FDEP Environmental Resources regulations, the 424-acre site is regulated by an existing Stormwater Permit, No. 17-0000667-018-EI. The subject facility is also operating in full compliance with an issued Title V (NSPS) Air Permit, No. 0330246-008-AV. The subject facility is designed with a gas collection system, which regularly collects landfill gas and sends it to a blower flare station and then off-site to a gas-to-energy (GTE) facility operated by Gulf Power.

The Perdido Landfill accepts demolition debris, which consists of: concrete, asphalt and brick and stores these materials in a designated area on-site. The stockpile is maintained in an area less than 1 acre. This material is often re-used onsite (un-processed) for erosion control or in road construction. In the past, as the size of the stockpile has reached capacity (estimated at 10,000 cubic yards) a rock-crushing contractor has been mobilized onsite to perform rock recycling.

Per the Escambia County Development Services Department, the proposed processing activity requires the landowner (Escambia County) to obtain a “Recycling Permit” as stipulated by the County’s Recycling Ordinance. This Operations Plan is intended to supplement the WSD Recycling Permit Application. A Site Plan is included as Exhibit A showing the location of the proposed operation.

The Development Order for Escambia County Perdido Landfill was approved through the County’s Development Review process on August 16, 2017, contingent upon the review for authorization or denial of the Conditional Use and Recycling Facility Permit at the aforementioned location.
