Transfer & Recycling StationIn <strong>2011</strong> the multi-year plan <strong>of</strong> improvement for the Transfer Stationcontinued with the construction <strong>of</strong> a new loading dock, expansion <strong>of</strong>the parking area, and interior modifications to the main building. Thesedevelopments should contribute to the safety and efficiency <strong>of</strong> the operationwhile allowing the facility to handle an increased throughput.With the completion <strong>of</strong> a new containment bunker this past fall webegan to segregate asphalt ro<strong>of</strong>ing shingles from the construction anddemolition waste stream. Such segregation will reduce our disposalcost and allow the recycling <strong>of</strong> a material once sent to a landfill.In the past year we discontinued the burning <strong>of</strong> brush and lumber.Incineration as a means <strong>of</strong> disposal is dirty, costly, and time consuming.Brush now brought to the facility is chipped and composted. Salvageablelumber is being made available to the public for reuse. If inthe past you have disposed <strong>of</strong> your stove ash at the brush pile pleasenow deposit it in the steel ash cans provided.Our thanks go out to the <strong>Warner</strong> Highway and Police Departments fortheir support this past year. The highway department contributed manylabor and equipment hours to help bring many <strong>of</strong> the aforementionedimprovements to fruition.Leaving us this past year was our longtime volunteer Ed Pickard. Inhis over ten years <strong>of</strong> service Ed processed many tons <strong>of</strong> material; ourthanks and best wishes go out to him.Respectfully submitted,Varick Proper - Foreman82
