(Pat Livingston photo) Area recycling association handled 4 million pounds Year endfigures confirm that Bruce Area Solid -Waste Recycl- ing Association (BAR) collected, processed and sold almost four million pounds of material last year. BAR handled 3,918,700 pounds of recyclables in 1992, an increase of about 650,000 pounds of 1991. This represents over 650 loaded blue box trucks . or more than 1780 tonnes of materials that did not reach your municipal landfill. Recycling is making a differ- ence in your landfill by reducing materials .going to that landfill by as much as 17 percent. Once all recyclables are diverted from landfill sties, Ministry of the Enfironment objectives can be reached. This past year also proved that landfill diversion can be achieved while keeping recycling ' a cost effective program. In 1993, your municipal cost of the blue box program will be approximately $13.75 per house- hold, a reduction over the 1992 per household cost. A variety of programs,. both blue box and others, have been reviewed, allowing implementation of those which save money while meeting • recycling objectives. Bi -weekly collection Was implemented, in all member municipalities, after a four month trial in four of the smaller niunicipalities proved a cost advantage and also proved an increased participation rate. If you did not receive your calen- dar showing your collection dates, please contact your municipitl office. A recent change, effective Feb. 1, encourages anyone in a mem- ber municipality to deliver materials directly to the recycl- ing plant in Saugecn Township, For anyone from a member municipality who delivers separ- ated recyclable, free of contami- nation, there is no fee for handl- ing the materials. Materials are received at the plant every busi- ness day between 9:00 and 3:00. unseparated, contaminated recyclable are NOT accepted and may also be refused at your own landfill. Some member municipalities' are currently recycling old corru- gated cardboard: The association has a packer truck specifically for corrugated cardboard collec- tion and offers this service, which is not a blue box program, on a user pay .basis. All mem- bers are expecting this recycling program to start in.1993. Recycling is working; 'it is a benefit to all, taxpayers .and people who generate recyclable materials. The more materials we recycle, the more cost effective the program becomes. The board and staff of BAR thank you for your increased participation in 1992, Your increased participa- tion, some as high as 80 percent has allowed us ' to, provide a quality service for a greater range of products. Your increased awareness of the pro- cess has helped our efficiency. Just a little change like leaving the lidoff a container increases truck capacity and processing time.
