]LEGIONAL ~tESOURCE !L~COVERY SITE:
Letter received from Highway Surveyor concerned the Regional Resource Recovery Project that
the City of Haverhill recently rejected. He stated that our proposed site has all the
criteria, other than access, which could be overcome by the construction of a bridge across
the Merrimack ~iver from Rte. 495. Daring the discussion, it was voted that Brian Sullivan
be appointed to the Solid Waste Committee, that an ADHoc Committeed be formed, that the
Conservation Committee be contacted and involved and that an Article be placed in the warrant
of the annual Town Meeting. Mr. Cyr stated the Bureau of Solid Waste intended to use the
Missile Site area for residue dumping and that ~s in the town's favor for being considered
as the host community. Mr. Cyr also stated that if the town was contracted to be the host
community, it would bring a million dollars revenue, annually, to the town. Motion was made
that Brian, Bud Cry and Ed Scanlon draw up a letter to be sent to the North East Solid Waste
Committee containing our intentions.
PUBLIC WOBKS:
Letter from Public Works advised the Board that they had voted to withdraw their Article f~r

be present.
