Scope of Study
Meet with member communities
•
Update historical and projected waste flows
•
Re-evaluate institutional alternatives
•
Develop and evaluate future scenarios
•
Prepare new pro forma model
•
Develop conclusions and recommendations
•

Scenarios Evaluated
Basis for scenarios
•
Eastern and Western options
•
Special considerations
•
City of Portsmouth (Proximity to WTE Facility)
–
City of Virginia Beach (VB LF No. 2, Closure
–
Costs)
City of Suffolk (Host fee)

System Scenarios

Cooperation Scenarios
Status quo
•
Western communities operate own transfer
•
stations and contract haul waste to WM’s
Waverly Landfill
Eastern communities either stay with SPSA
•
or self perform all transfer and disposal
operations, with or without WTE
SPSA
•
Landfill + Transfer Operations
–
Transfer Operations Only
–
Landfill Operations Only

Transfer Scenarios
Ownership Models
•
SPSA owns and operates
–
Each member community owns and operates
–
Privatization of transfer stations/transportation

System NPV Analysis Scenarios
A Series (Use existing systems, LF, and
•
WTE)
B Series (ORLF, Regional LF closed)
•
C Series (Regional LF) (E/W split)
•
D Series (Regional LF Closed, Muni TSs)
•
E Series (New WTE in VB) (E/W split)
•
10
System NPV Analysis Scenarios
F.1 -Suffolk operates Regional LF for own
•
municipal solid waste disposal
G.1 –Similar to A.2, except Portsmouth
•
does not participate in SPSA.
