THE STATE OF TEXAS §
INTERLOCAL LANDFILL USE AGREEMENT
COUNTY OF LUBBOCK §
WHEREAS, the rules and regulations with regard to solid waste
disposal requirements have become increasingly complex in recent
years due to changes in Federal and State law; and
WHEREAS, many smaller local governments are unable to operate
a sanitary landfill on an economical basis in the face of increased

WHEREAS, the City of Lubbock, Texas, operates a municipal
solid waste facility which the City Council of the City of Lubbock
desires to make available to nearby communities that are unable to
operate such a facility; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Lubbock deems it in
the best interest of the citizens of the City of Lubbock and sur-
rounding communities to make sanitary landfill facilities available
under the following terms and conditions; NOW THEREFORE:
WITNESSETH:
This Agreement is entered into this 1st day of June ,

tion and it shall be the duty of the User to insure that only
"municipal solid waste" is presented for disposal to Operator.
3. Operation of Site. The Operator shall have the exclusive
right to operate and maintain the disposal site specified in
this Agreement. Such site shall be operated in accordance
with the applicable rules and regulations of the Texas Depart-
ment of Health regarding minimum standards for operation of
sanitary landfills, and the requirements of other State and
Federal agencies with regard to the disposal of the municipal
solid waste. The operator shall furnish all labor, tools, and
equipment necessary to operate the site and shall be responsi-
ble for all required maintenance and supervision.
4. Hazardous and/or toxic wastes. It shall be the responsibility
•of User to insure that all waste presented for landfill dis-
posal is free of any hazardous and/or waste of any nature
whatsoever and in the event that it become necessary to under-
take removal or remedial action as a result of waste deposited
by User, User hereby agrees to pay all costs associated with
such removal or remedial action, regardless of when said re-
moval or remedial action may take place.
5. Compensation. The User shall pay such fees as are charged by
the Operator for use of such facility by the citizens of the
City of Lubbock plus an additional surcharge in the amount of

the party responsible for the environmental hazard requiring
remedial action as stated by Section 4 herein. If no User is

cility, then such funds may be used for the acquisition of
additional waste disposal sites or facilities. Payment of

nicipal solid waste to the City landfill by User or User's
