As a subcontractor to Smith Gardner, GBB was tasked with developing a Full Cost Accounting Model and a Financial Projection and Rate Model for Transylvania County, NC.

The objective of the study was to review current solid waste fees to determine if they adequately accounted for all solid waste program expenditures, which included funding future system needs (equipment maintenance, repairs, and purchase); facility monitoring, maintenance, development, and expansion; and facility end-use requirements, including closure and post-closure needs.
