The Will County Board Landfill Committee met on October 13, 2026. For the Prairie View RDF proposed landfill expansion, the project team reported progress on the hydrogeologic investigation, finalized expansion design, and supporting calculations, with additional application sections in development. Land-use, real-estate, and traffic consultants are working on parts of the application. A complete draft is expected to be submitted to county staff for review in the first quarter of 2027; no expansion approval or procurement award was reported.

The committee also received an update on the RNG facility, including estimated September revenue of about $1.5 million and an estimated $250,000 positive position at month-end. For the fourth feed compressor upgrade, a request for bids for electrical equipment and a request for proposals for installation are underway. Installation is estimated at $1 million–$1.25 million; staff requested an additional $1 million in the RNG budget, while the compressor itself, costing about $730,000, was purchased from the prior-year budget. No bids were awarded or spending motions approved in the transcript. The committee canceled its November meeting and approved a motion to adjourn.
