The Salt Lake Valley (UT) landfill is enjoying a rare problem-too much money. The landfill has $41 million in its reserve fund, and the Salt Lake County district attorney's office has determined that between $6 million and $20 million could be diverted for other uses. Possible suggestions have included everything from an amphitheater to a composting center. Any deal would have to leave enough of a surplus to properly close the landfill under Subtitle D guidelines.
