Manual separation could be accomplished at the MRFs discussed in the Recycling Component. Additional facilities would not be necessary. A more sophisticated process would require siting, design, permitting and development of a regional facility to handle a large portion of the County's waste stream. 7. Consistency with Local Policies, Plans, and Ordinances: Use of the MRFs discussed in the Recycling Component for manual separation should have no impact on local policies, plans and ordinances. The following applies to the more sophisticated Chapter 5 - Compost 17 0 5. Implementation in the Short -Term or Medium -Term Planning Periods: MRFs may be established in the short-term planning period as discussed in the recycling component. Therefore, manual separation of compostable materials at these facilities could be initiated in the short-term and extended into the medium-term planning period. Siting, designing, permitting and developing a sophisticated MRF would be a complex and lengthy process that could not be completed in the short- term period. The process could begin during the short-term, with start-up scheduled during the medium-term planning period. 6. Need for Additional Facilities: Manual separation could be accomplished at the MRFs discussed in the Recycling Component. Additional facilities would not be necessary. A more sophisticated process would require siting, design, permitting and development of a regional facility to handle a large portion of the County's waste stream. 7.
