Recovery Facility re-opened

The City welcomes the re-opening of the RRRC, as it means the Citys green-lidded waste and that of other participating local governments will no longer have to be diverted to landfill. 

The City will continue to work with the SMRC as they address the conditions stipulated by the DEC in the amended licence including improving local air quality to the satisfaction of affected residents and the DEC.
