MaltbyNow has been in contact with Waste Management about the use of the old Calvert Industries site. This is the reply received over the weekend from WM public relations.
Waste Management Northwest Operations and Market Area Facility
Waste Management is currently planning for the development of an 18-acre parcel of land of, previously known as the Calvert Industries site in Maltby. After acquiring the property, Waste Management spent over one million dollars in cleaning the soil of contaminants in preparation for construction. The soil quality now exceeds industrial commercial requirements. Waste Management intends to construct a facility that meets United State Green Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver Certified standards , consisting of operations support administrative offices, market area administrative offices, a truck depot/maintenance shop and a greenwaste reload facility. The facility will serve as the main administrative offices for Waste Managements Pacific Northwest Operations, which encompasses Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska and British Columbia. The site has been designed to accommodate sidewalks, additional parking for the adjacent softball fields and attractive fencing.
MaltbyNow is following up to find out what "greenwaste reload" and "truck depot" mean.
