Table 4-26 for Woodbury changes the assumption to every other week collection for all haulers <br />and changes the loading time by adding 15 seconds per stop to haulers using the dual stream <br />collection system (single stream systems loading time remains at 15 seconds). Switching to <br />every other week collection reduces fuel consumption. Adding to the loading time slightly <br />increases fuel consumption. Applying these assumptions to the existing hauler system results in <br />1.56 gallons of fuel projected to be used per household. Table 4-26 provides a comparison to a <br />recycling system collecting all households with a 15 second load time. The projected fuel <br />consumption factor for the existing system compared to the organized with a 15 second load time <br />is 3.71. <br />It is apparent in the data that in either Woodbury scenario, open collections result in <br />approximately 300% to 370% more fuel use during the on route collection process than the <br />various projected approaches to organized systems. <br />R - Analysis of Waste Collection Service Arrangements.doc Foth Infrastructure & Environment, LLC • 139 <br />June 2009 <br />
