For decades the Torrington Transfer Station (“the facility”) was operated by the Materials Innovation and Recycling Authority (MIRA). Due to the recent dissolution of MIRA, the facility is temporarily being operated by the State of CT Department of Administrative Services (DAS).
Several municipalities in NW CT are interested in ensuring that the Torrington Transfer Station (facility) remains a public facility. One option to keep the Torrington Transfer Station a public facility is for the NRRA to acquire and manage the facility.
There are contracts in place with municipalities, haulers, recycling facilities, a facility operator and a scale operator through June 30, 2027, but in order for the NRRA to acquire the facility we must make a determination if it is feasible to acquire and operate the facility in a self-sustaining, cost-effective manner beyond July 1, 2027.
The RFI seeks information to assess whether the NRRA can acquire and manage the Torrington Transfer Station, which was previously operated by MIRA and is now temporarily operated by the State of CT DAS. The facility handles municipal solid waste and recycling. Existing contracts with municipalities, haulers, recycling facilities, a facility operator, and a scale operator are in place through June 30, 2027. The goal is to keep the facility public and determine if it can be operated self-sustainingly beyond July 1, 2027.
