Clear Bags and Privacy
Most experts agree that anything with your name on it should be shredded and placed in the recyclables as a security precaution. For those of you who are worried about privacy, if you use a garbage pail, animals can’t tear it open and the only ones who should be looking at your garbage are those collecting it.
Remember we are extending the life of a very expensive landfill with this program. Thank you for helping to reduce waste and foster the greater good for Brockton.
Blue Box Update
AMO’s response to the draft Blue Box Program Plan (BBPP) revisions emphasizes the need to go beyond the proposed focus on recycling, and to also deal with reduction of material. AMO is also raising concerns that the BBPP proposed to extend the Continuous Improvement Fund (CIF) without the benefit of prior negotiations between the industry and municipalities. Analysis of the CIF projects has been requested and is underway. It will be available to the AMO Waste Task Force for deliberations and recommendations in the coming weeks. The decision on the CIF is expected at the board meeting in June.
