Summary: Proposed general rate increase for residential and commercial garbage collection to recover the increased cost of disposal fees set by the Spokane Regional Solid Waste System. On January 1, 2013, disposal fees will increase from $104 per ton to $107 per ton at the Spokane waste-to-energy facility and the Sunshine Recycler's transfer station, and from $109 per ton to $112 per ton at the Sullivan Road transfer station. Annual revenue would increase approximately $900 (0.8 percent). The company serves approximately 370 residential and commercial garbage customers in Spokane County. The company's last general rate increase became effective on March 1, 2012.
