Chico shared that they have a green waste facility that is operated by Waste Management at the airport, and we have verified through Waste Management that they take materials from residents throughout Butte County. The site was temporarily closed on August 31st due to adjacent road construction work and was expected to reopen yesterday per a Chico press release, but we haven’t been able to verify if that is the case. I have attached the Waste Management green waste pricing sheet for your information. The sheet also includes a list of prohibited items that are similar to the prohibited items in our WUI residential green waste program. Enjoy your weekend! – Josh From: Pack, Joshua Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2022 1:55 PM To: BOS <BOS@buttecounty.net> Cc: Edwards, Terry <TEdwards@buttecounty.net>; Hightower, Scott <SHightower@buttecounty.net>; 'Ashley Snyder (ansnyder@buttecounty.net)' <ansnyder@buttecounty.net> Subject: RE: Public Works Response to BOS Questions from August 23, 2022 Good afternoon – I neglected to include one additional action item. Please see below: Chico / Cohasset Relationship to Process Residential Green Waste Our team will reach out to Chico here shortly to discuss any potential to include Cohasset residential green waste processing through existing Chico programs. I will follow up if any success comes out of these efforts.

If any individual member wishes to chat about these or other items, feel free to reach out to me directly. - Josh Full-Depth Reclamation (FDR) Overview I’ve included a brief 3-minute YouTube video outlining the benefits of FDR. The FDR process recycles existing road materials and uses them as part of the finished road product which reduces hauling costs, speeds up the project delivery process, and reduces GHG emissions compared to other traditional methods. We tend to add cement to the FDR process (called FDR-C) which further increases the strength of our roads and can lengthen the time before a follow-up treatment is needed. Recent work on Hegan Lane, Ord Ferry Road, and Foothill Blvd all utilized the FDR-C process, and the upcoming Bald Rock Road Rehabilitation Project will use the FDR-C method to restore damage from the North Complex fire. While FDR-C is a valuable tool in our pavement management toolbox, it is not applicable or appropriate for all occasions and is carefully compared to other methods when considering roads for future repair or rehabilitation. We also utilize a state-of-the-art cloud-based software system called StreetSaver that helps us determine the best technique based on numerous factors. With that said, we have been pleased with the results of the aforementioned projects and look forward to considering FDR for future projects. Request for Qualifications – Butte County Wildfire Resiliency and Fuels Management Project I have attached a copy of the RFQ per the Board’s request. The process opened to the public on May 5th and closed on June 21st. Butte County Public Works Road Recovery and Restoration Report A link to that report can be found by clicking HERE, and a link to the PowerPoint presentation can be found HERE. Those discussions occurred on August 10, 2021. The Department followed up with our 2022 Capital Improvement Program, which included updated project information and costs in March 2022. We anticipate revising this information again as part of our upcoming 2023 Capital Improvement to reflect the completed Camp and North Complex Fire projects and update funding information for the remaining projects.
