Bluewater Recycling Association runs deficit for 2005
Jeff Heuchert
Bluewater Recycling
Association has projected
a deficit of $130,000 for
their 2005 fiscal year,
their first deficit in two
years.
Bluewater Recycling,
which services homes in
most of Huron, Perth,
Middlesex, and Lambton
Counties, have been hit by
the rising cost of fuel.
In a letter to the munici-
palities, president of
Bluewater Recycling
Francis Veilleux said,
"Unfortunately, we saw a
fuel cost increase that

could not have been fore-
casted as prices soared up
38 per cent during the
year."
That 38 per cent trans-
lated into $693,000 a year
on fuel, up from $530,000.
The rising fuel costs
directly affect Bluewater
Recycling, who use many
vehicles that operate
strictly off diesel fuel.
They were also hit by an
increase in fuel sur-
charges from their suppli-
ers, in addition to an
increase in disposal fees.
In his letter Veilleux
said they expect the same
results for 2006, especially
with the new engines soon
to be installed on their
trucks, that while reduc-
ing emissions, consume
more fuel.
Bluewater Recycling
hope to counter these
costs with a grant worth
around $250,000 from
Waste Division Ontario, a
branch of the Ministry of
Environment.
But in his letter, Veilleux
emphasized that the grant
money is not guaranteed.
The rising fuel costs will
result in an increase in
the per household price for
the service, from $42.14 to
$45.65, which the individ-
ual municipality pays for.
The number could be
lower depending on
whether Bluewater
Recycling receives a grant
from WDO.
The price each munici-
pality pays for the service
varies, depending on the
number of homes in the
municipality, what kind of
servioe they receive,
whether it's weekly or bi-
weekly, and if it's curbside
or a depot pickup.
In Huron East, the year-
ly cost for the service will
go up from $151, 224 to
$164, 551, an increase of
8.33 per cent.
