...from 2 pm to 4 pm at Blyth Memorial Arena.
An open house to provide infor
mation to residents of Grey and
McKillop Townships about Blue
water Recycling was held in the
Walton WI Hall, Sept. 28.
Lynda Rotteau, special projects
co-ordinator with Bluewater Recy
cling Association was present to
answer questions and explain the
program.
Until this past September, resi
dents of the two townships took
their rccyclables directly to the bins
al the landfill site. However, since
joining the Bluewater Recycling
Association, recyclables are picked
up at the roadside. Residents are no
longer permitted to take recyclable
materials to the landfill site.
Advancements in recycling tech
nology and the development of
markets increased the amount of
material that could be recycled and
the landfill site committee began to
feel that the basic depot system was
somewhat obsolete.
After consideration was given to
the service provided by Bluewater
Recycling Association, which is a
non-profit organization based out
of Huron Park, the committee rec

als which could be added to their
recycling program such as
boxboard, cardboard and a wide
range of plastics. Other services
provided by Bluewater include
waste audits to business and house
hold hazardous waste days.
Visitors to the open house were
told some helpful tips to recycle
household plastic containers, and
how to tell what plastics are accept
able. Soft drink bottles, liquid
detergent, shampoo and liquid juice
container bottles, shopping bags,
bread bags and dry cleaning bags
are among the acceptable plastics.
Some of the non-acceptable are
margarine tubs, fast food carryout
containers, vegetable oil bottles and
stretch wrap.
A triangular symbol with a num
ber on the bottom of the item indi
cates its acceptability.
Members of Bluewater Recycling
receive a newsletter to keep them
further informed of what and how
to recycle, Ms Rotteau said.
The more noise you
hear today, the less
you’ll hear tomorrow.
