Subject: Call for Papers, AWMA 1998 Conference in San Diego
Greetings!
I write you as Chair of the Air and Waste Management Association's
Integrated Waste Management Technical Committee (WM-1) to invite you to
submit an abstract for the next AWMA annual meeting, next June 14-19, 1998
in San Diego. The conference usually attracts about 7,000 environmental
professionals from around the world, and features the latest advances in
the science, policy, regulation, prevention/control, and management of air
and waste. All papers in the meeting (usually over 1,000) will be
published on CD-ROM. Our committee usually sponsors seven or so half-day
sessions on subjects within the following three broader topic areas. The
conference session categories have not been finalized (per AWMA's new
flexible policy), but the very broad "topic" areas, meant to stimulate any
worthy paper in our broad areas of interest include the following:
271 Integrated Waste Management, Prevention, Reuse, Recycling, Recovery
272 Municipal/ Medical Waste Management, Laws, Regulation
278 Modeling, Composition, and Analytical Techniques in Municipal and
Medical Waste including LifeCycle
Of greatest importance for authors to remember if you would like to submit:
1. The abstract deadline: September 23; (they can send you the form)
Fax AWMA: 412-232-3450, Email: byunk@awma.org
2. Fill in one of the above three numbers as the 1st choice for Session
Topic; fill in another one of these as second choice if applicable.
3. Select paper delivery preference as Platform
If you have questions or are interested in submitting an abstract, please
let me know (or AWMA) and the one-page form can be sent to you. If you
would like to circulate copies of the abstract form in your organization or
conferences or meetings you will be attending, please feel encouraged. I
look forward to seeing your abstract.

Thanks for the alert:
It's a shame that your conference is one month later that the
California Resource Recovery Association's annual conference that is
also being held in San Diego (May 3-6, 1998). The theme of our
conference is "Building Bridges" with other partners to achieve
environmental goals like Zero Waste. If you are interested please
contact Gary Liss, Executive Director at crra@aol.com.

Subject: Call for Papers, AWMA Conference (Important change)
Please pardon the second post on this, but I noticed that AWMA changed the
three topics of interest (and most important, the numbers). If you were
planning to submit an abstract, these are the topics and associated numbers:
271 Municipal/ Medical Waste Management, Laws, and Regulations Update
272 Integrated Waste Management, Prevention, Reuse, Recycling, Recovery
277 Modeling, Composition, and Analytical Techniques in Municipal and
Medical Waste including LifeCycle
If the wrong numbers are put on the form, it may end up in the wrong
session or misplaced altogether. Again, if you have questions or are
interested in submitting an abstract, please let me know (or AWMA) and the
one-page form can be sent to you. If you would like to circulate copies of
the abstract form in your organization or conferences or meetings you will
be attending, please feel encouraged. I look forward to seeing your abstract.

Subject: Markets for dredged creek material
Hi All:
I have a client, a large water district, that is trying to find
recycling markets for the materials that are dredged from creeks and
some that come from flood water containment areas. They haven't asked
but they may also be interested in markets for the materials cleaned
out of storm drains.
They have been taking this material to local landfills for disposal.
They are required to conduct tests to see if concentrations of
hazardous materials would trigger any heavy metal contamination levels
and apparently they haven't (so the material does not have to go to a
hazmat facility.)
They were told by an unidentified landfill operator that they could be
using this material as Alternate Daily Cover (ADC) (under Calif. new
law) and that they wouldn't have to be as careful with the levels of
hazardous materials if they did haul this materials as ADC.
A portion of their dredging goes to inert recyclers and they are
working on a composting program for the greenwaste found in the
creeks.
Have any of you handled dredge materials, found any interesting end
markets or ever heard of sending this materials out as ADC as a way of
reducing the heavy metal liabilities?
Thanks for your help.
The client is confidential under the RTEAM activities.

Subject: Turnkey Recyclers and Flow Control
Hi:
I have a client that provides full service reuse and recycling
services to large corporations in California. They are in the process
of expanding their business and their clients are expanding their
operations into adjacent cities. They started in a city that allowed
any recycler to operate and to charge a fee for service. The new
cities that their customers are moving into do not allow independent
recyclers to charge a fee for service. How can this client expand
their operations legally, without moving recyclables from the city
that doesn't allow fee for service to a customer site in the city that
does allow fee for service. (This only works if the sites are
adjacent and you don't drive over city streets, anyway.)
This clients creates all the programs, trains all the employees
including outsourced janitorial and construction personel, monitor
end-markets and quantify levels of reuse, recycling, (soon composting)
and disposal.
What suggestions do you have to allow this company to expand
operations legally and not get caught in flow control/fee for service
arguments/lawsuits with the 'Flow-controlled' city.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
