Work towards a planned expanded recycling depot in Quesnel began today.
Contamination rates in the City’s existing drop off locations have measured too high to create marketable products, therefore the locations will be systematically closed as the new depot proceeds.
Contract details between Recycle BC and the city’s contractor have not yet been finalized, but the City says more details will be made available soon.
The eventual changes will not effect the current door-to-door collection system.
