www.insideHALTON.com · OAKVILLE BEAVER Friday, September 7, 2012 · 10 Pilot project to explore recycling paper cups By Julia Le METROLAND WEST MEDIA GROUP Test run set to begin in Burlington neighbourhood later this month It will encourage approximately 400 households in the Palmer Park neighbourhood in Burlington to place hot beverage paper cups in their blue box for recycling instead of the GreenCart from Sept. 17 to Dec. 13. The move must still be approved by Regional council Wednesday (Sept. 12). The Palmer Park neighbourhood has been chosen specifically because of its close proximity to the Emterra Material Recovery Facility, which processes blue box materials. The program -- which is operated in partnership with Stewardship Ontario, Emterra Environmental and Miller Waste Systems -- will evaluate the potential benefits of including paper laminated cups in the blue box program and the impact it has on the Region's waste diversion program. Data collected from the project will be shared with other municipalities across Ontario to determine whether incorporating One Halton neighbourhood may be able to include paper laminated cups in its blue boxes starting later this month as part of a new pilot project. Halton Regional council's planning and public works committee, which met Wednesday, has given the Region its support to begin the study. paper laminated cups in their respective blue box programs is feasible. Regional staff will report back to councillors when the results of the study have been compiled. The project will be conducted at no additional cost to the Region. All costs associated with marketing materials and the delivery of the communication pieces to residents are being covered by Stewardship Ontario. Nursery Sales...
