§ 272.225. Estimated future capacity.

 (a)  The plan shall estimate the processing or disposal capacity needed for the municipal waste that will be generated in the county during the next 10 years. This estimate shall be based on the analysis performed under §  272.223 (relating to description of waste), and may not include waste or source separated recyclable material that will be recycled.

 (b)  The plan shall describe the primary variables affecting this estimate and the extent to which they can reasonably be expected to affect the estimate, including, but not limited to, the amount of residual waste disposed or processed at municipal waste disposal or processing facilities in the county and the extent to which residual waste may be disposed or processed at these facilities during the next 10 years.

 (c)  The plan shall consider the impact of compliance with the regulations of the Department relating to residual waste in determining the estimate.

 (d)  If during the development of a plan revision, the county determines that additional processing or disposal capacity is needed by the county, the county shall give public notice of the determination and solicit proposals and recommendations regarding facilities and programs to provide the capacity. The county shall provide a copy of the notice to the Department, which will submit a copy of the notice to be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
