Before RICHARD S. ARNOLD, WOLLMAN, and BEAM, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.
      William D. Helix appeals from the district court&s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his civil suit challenging the constitutionality of a county&s solid waste
collection system. After a careful review of the record and the parties& briefs on
appeal, we conclude the district court ruled correctly and an extended discussion is
unnecessary. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
