 Pike County Fiscal Court held a special meeting Tuesday, August 9th, to discuss disaster relief resources and allocate funding. The Fiscal Court approved retaining asperit in accordance with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Department of Highways contract. I think in two weeks, asperit should have nine trucks in here helping. Pike County solid waste is still picking up household garbage in certain circumstances where we're still empty in our dumpsters. We've had a lot of people call and ask for dumpsters and what we've instructed people to do is we don't have enough dumpsters to handle this. And because the state is helping with the debris removal and they're paying the cost at no cost to the taxpayers, it doesn't make sense for us to fill our land field prematurely and have to haul this material at Pike County taxpayers initially having to foot the bill to wait several years to get the money back from FEMA. But if you have garbage, if you have construction debris, if you have naturally occurring debris, put it as close to the roadway as you can put it. Separate construction debris, separate household garbage. What we're asking is people not mix household garbage with, you know, flood-related debris, construction demolition related debris.

Ashford is coordinating with Pike County Solid Waste to organize pickups in a timely manner and they will remain in Pike County until a cleanup is completed. So I mean there's a lot of material that's out there that's going to have to be disposed of and please make sure you get it as close to the road as you can. If, I think this is a fair statement, if you're ready to have something picked up, we can't guarantee you the schedule that Ashford will be on, but we have a contact if you call Pike County Solid Waste Department 432-6245 and tell them you're ready for a pickup, we will call Ashford and try to see if we can expedite that.
