Seabrook Faces Waste Contract Options With RESCO
Seabrook voters weigh two RESCO solid waste plans after a third costly option was dropped by the selectmen. One proposal would haul town waste to Saugus for $25 a ton with a regional transfer station fee for out of town garbage, potentially lowering costs to about $70,000 annually. The second option lowers per ton cost to $18.45 but requires town to buy compacting equipment and scales, with RESCO supplying transfer vehicles. The town seeks a permanent solution and may consider a year or month to month arrangement. Northeast Solid Waste Committee involvement and a planned North Andover refuse to energy project inform the debate.
