I have reviewed the plan and only one question. In Appendix E, table 4.1.1 Recomps tons are shown as about 11,000. Is this county tons only and excludes City of Bellingham? Response: The 11,663.25 tons presented in the Cost Assessment Questionnaire Table 4.1.1 is the total quantity of solid waste handled, as reported by RDC as per WAC 173-350-3/0(d), Intermediate solid waste handling facilities, at their permitted solid waste handlingfacility. Amber Jones, Whatcom County Solid Waste Advisory Committee Received July 22, 2015 1. Sections 1.2.4 and 6.1. Remove 'with the exception of Bellingham' as we do offer a 32 gallon service to those customers as well. Response: "... with the exception of Bellingham" will be removed from the text in both sections. 2. Section 1.8.1. Date should be changed to July 2015. Response: Based on the uncertainty at this time as to when local adoption will occur, the end date of the plan update process will be removed from the section. 3. Table 8-1, Goal2.A. Sham recycling is still not defmed correctly. The issue isn't recyclables being hauled to a landfill, the issue, which costs the county $8.50 per ton, is sham recyclers (companies that can only legally haul recyclables) illegally hauling garbage and calling it recycling. Response: Action 2.A will be revised to state "Investigate service provider compliance with applicable requirements to determine if there is an issue of illegaljy hauling solid waste under the guise of reryc!ing, and enforce requirements as applicable. " 4. Table 4-2, Goal3.B. SSC offers free waste audits; additional assistance with follow up on more properties is likely to increase participation and diversion.

The Cascade Chuckanut Conservation Plan is important. There are unique 42 features, properties, and geologies of the Chuckanut mountain range. The environment 43 upholds the economy of the northwest, according to one study. Tourism has brought $396 44 million to Whatcom County in 2005, which was a 9.5% increase over 2004. The future 45 industry for Whatcom and Skagit counties is going to be tourism and recreation if they keep 46 the attractions that bring folks here. Given the number of people who are predicted to 47 come here, as tourists and as residents, that property must be protected and managed or it 48 wi Ii be destroyed.

  • Northwest Hiking Weekend Friday, Saturday & Sunday ~ August 2-4, 2019
    Northwest Hiking Weekend Friday, Saturday & Sunday ~ August 2-4, 2019 Register at Lost Lake Day Use Area, Larrabee State Park, Bellingham, Washington Maps and directions will be available at registration table. Registration open: Early registration, Thursday August 1, 4-8 PM Friday and Saturday August 2-3, 8 AM to 5 PM Sunday, August 4, 8 AM to 4 PM Come and join us for a great weekend exploring the Chuckanut Mountains. Cedar Lake Trail and Raptor Ridge Viewpoint The Cedar Lake Trail begins with a thigh-burning climb of 1,300 feet in 1.6 miles; but, the stout- hearted hiker is soon rewarded with a lovely view of Mt. Baker and Lookout Mountain, then an enjoy- able jaunt around beautiful Cedar Lake, after which 10 km hikers continue to another viewpoint, passing many interesting sandstone formations and pockets of old-growth trees. Fragrance Lake and Rock Trail Loop The hike begins with picturesque views of the Salish Sea, far below you; then the Rock Trail, one of the newer trails in Washington State, descends several groupings of timbered steps to reach mas- sive sandstone walls with curious holes embedded in the rock faces. A long, moderate-grade sweep then takes you to the intersecting trails of pretty Fragrance Lake and another viewpoint of the Salish Sea. Oyster Dome Loop Starting at the scenic Samish Overlook, and after completing many switchbacks, the hardy hiker reaches Oyster Dome, a cliff-faced ledge, with more superb views of the Salish Sea and the sur- rounding forest. The trail then continues in a long, easy-grade loop, back to the trailhead.
