Progress is being made on the new material receiving area for the Logan County Solid Waste Management District facility, 1100 S. Main St. Once completed, this canopy at 130 feet wide and 60 feet deep will be twice as tall as the original building to allow trucks to empty in a covered area, which will increase both employee and equipment safety. The “canopy” is a steel structure created by contractor ClearSpan with an industrial fabric cover that will not require replacement for 20 years. This structure is built on foundations laid by local contractor Meier Concrete, with concrete walls and piers sturdy enough to withstand Category 1 hurricane winds, and extreme snow loading. This will also ensure plenty of space for all the planned growth for another decade. (SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT DISTRICT PHOTO)
