DESCRIPTION

Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency. Providing environmentally sound solid waste solutions.

In order to control current and future economic and environmental liability, the mission of the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency is to provide environmentally sound, financially stable, fiscally responsible, community recognized, solid waste management services that include appropriate waste reduction, resource conservation, and disposal activities.

HISTORY

The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency (DMASWA) is an intergovernmental entity formed in 1973 under Chapter 28E of the Code of Iowa. Although originally formed primarily for the purpose of owning and operating a sanitary landfill, the DMASWA has since broadened its mission.

Members of the DMASWA include the City of Dubuque, with two Board representatives, and Dubuque County, with one representative. All remaining municipalities in Dubuque and Delaware Counties have signed "Non-Member Service Agreements".

The Agency's municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill (permit #31-SDP-02-75P) is located on Dubuque's west side along U.S. Highway 20. Its service area is Dubuque and Delaware counties. The Agency owns 460 acres of property, of which 80 are permitted for landfill use.


GUIDING PRINCIPLES

The DMASWA shall accomplish its mission by:

Continuing to own and operate a good, environmentally-sound landfill at the present location.

Facilitating well-planned, community-driven, sustainable waste reduction and resource conservation alternatives to the Agency landfill.

Providing a stable funding system based on user fees (i.e., tipping fees and various direct charges) and minimizing tax subsidies.

Maintaining reserve funds to cover appropriate items such as closure/post closure and care.

Employing well-qualified staff and/or contractors.

Fostering a customer service-based orientation toward waste haulers and other facility users.

Studying and identifying alternative solid waste management methods, customer needs, and funding approaches, and providing for the implementation of services to fill identified voids.

Providing a structure for community/member input to decisions and ongoing Board member education.
