<br />FORM 6: PROJECT SUMMARY <br /> <br />Please provide a complete project summary, Refer to the application instructions when completing <br />these fonns. If necessary, attach additional pages for each fonn. <br /> <br />Form 6a. Project Description (add additional pages as necessary) <br /> <br />We are requesting two additional inches to our 300' x 300' paved pad at our ten (10) acre compost <br />site in Southwest Paris. The paved pad is used for staging and storage of wood chips in rows to <br />mature into compost. The additional thickness will allow vehicles to trayeI over the paved pad <br />without making ruts on the pad. <br /> <br />During bad weather, we cannot use the ten (10) acres site to stage and store our wood chips without <br />the paved pad. We have to store them at our Public Works site and then remove the wood chips to <br />our compost site during better weather. <br /> <br />We currently use a chipping machine at residential sites in Paris to chip branches of trees. The wood <br />chips are taken to our compost site to decompose rather than to the landfill. This is saving the City <br />of Paris over $250,000.00 in landfill costs annually and reducing our tonnage by over fifty percent <br />(50%) annually. <br /> <br />If funded, we would purchase the materials to add two inches of thickness to the 300' x 300' pad and <br />would use our equipment and labor to increase the thickness. <br /> <br />By having this paved area, our compost will mature more quickly. We plan to use the compost at <br />our City Parks and offer the compost to the citizens of Paris which has a population of25,000. <br /> <br />Project Application <br />Form 6a <br /> <br />Page of <br />
