I hope to meet the proposed authorised officer this week, after which that person should be in a position to commence work very quickly. We will have to examine how long it will take to complete the task but I hope it can be done as quickly as possible. I will report back to the Oireachtas as soon as the authorised officer reports to me. It is vital that we engage in this process in order to avoid at all costs a situation where there is a significant contingent liability on the taxpayer.

Incinerator Story Is One Of Public Betrayal


By Lauren Ritchie, Sentinel Columnist | October 29, 2003


Mystery has always enveloped Lake County's infamous deal to build a garbage-burning incinerator. Heck, those who were crafting the transaction over a few years didn't know which teams were on the field half the time, let alone who was on first. The landscape changed that fast. In the end, Lake County commissioners gave a company that became Covanta Energy a $200 million gift in the form of an incinerator, complete with all the bond financing, and operations and maintenance costs through 2014.
