Daviess County Fiscal Court approved Thursday an agreement to extend a Coal Combustion Management System contract with Owensboro Municipal Utilitiesby one year. Fiscal Court will continue to handle OMU’s coal combustion residuals during that time.
The agreement has already been in place for roughly five years, according to Director of Legislative Services David Smith. The agreement has been a positive thing for both OMU and the County, according to Judge-Executive Al Mattingly.
Since the beginning of the County’s agreement with OMU in December 2016, Fiscal Court has turned a more profit than expected, with OMU’s total bill to date topping $4.2 million.
