How far would you go to dump dirt?

Well, if you are the Monroe County Water Authority, you would go 12 miles. What does 12 miles look like from Water Authority Headquarters at 475 Norris Drive.

12 miles form Water Authority Headquaters

As we said before, the justification by the Monroe County Water Authority really doesn’t hold water. Dirt was trucked 12 miles to a Water Authority Engineer’s private residence. How far is 12 miles from 475 Norris Drive - Water Authority Headquarters complete with big pile of dirt in back of the property?

Looks like 12 miles covers most of Monroe County.

I mean, if it was good enough for a county employee to violate county policy using surplus county property - imagine all the places for dirt 12 miles from Norris Drive.

I like the way they refer to the excess soil as “spoils”. The online application also makes it appear as though it’s NOT for residential use, but for commercial fill use only. There is nothing in the .pdf file that shows that residential property owners are eligible for receipt.
